Chapter 1103: Post-Production

"Happy New Year, Wu." When Jarvis saw Wu Tian, he was a bear hug, and greeted with a smile.

"Jarvis, give you a face for the New Year, don't hug me again in the future, we Chinese can't stand your courtesy." Wu Tian said disgustedly, Jarvis pushed away, and said helplessly.

"Haha, once a year, OK." Jarvis looked like he had succeeded in his treacherous scheme, and laughed.

Wu Tian shook his head helplessly, raised his feet and walked towards the building of the post-production center, and said, "How is it?" Happy vacation, right? ”

"Well, it's just a pity that the vacation time is still a little shorter." Jarvis said with a dissatisfied look on his face.

"Haha, then work harder, hurry up and do the post-production, and you can take a long vacation." Wu Tian said with a smile.

"Well, at the current pace, it can definitely be done before the summer vacation." Jarvis laughed, "The point is that you are too demanding, otherwise, we can release it next month." ”

"No, no, we're going to wait for the summer vacation." Wu Tian said with a smile.

Whether a movie is good or not, in addition to the script and acting, the most important thing is post-production. In Hollywood, it can take half a year to prepare for a movie, three months to shoot, and more than a year to post-production! In China, the proportion of post-production is often less than one-third of the film production cycle, which is where the biggest difference in the quality of the work is.

The post-production of "The Three-Body Problem" has started from the beginning of filming, and the pre-production set by Wu Tian is mainly carried out in the studio, in order to shoot those content that needs to be post-produced first, so on the whole, the post-production cycle of "The Three-Body Problem" is not less than one year, which can definitely be regarded as meticulous workmanship.

"What about Lao Zhang? Still working on the script? Wu Tian asked again.

"Yes, Director Zhang picked me up at the airport yesterday and said that their script would be completed soon, and after writing the script, they would come over to do the later stage of "The Three-Body Problem" first." Jarvis said.

"Well, people have already filmed the third part, Lao Jia, you have to work hard, the next one will be handed over to you, how about it?" Wu Tian said with a smile.

"Whatever, I'd rather shoot superheroes." Jarvis shrugged his shoulders and said.

"Hey, how many people want to rush to help me make a sequel, you're good, and pick and choose?" Wu Tian said with a smile.

"I'll be very happy to be an assistant director for you, because there will always be some surprise ideas to follow you, but let me shoot it myself, I really don't like this kind of sci-fi theme." Jarvis smiled, "Besides, this is a Chinese movie, and the concept of many things in it is in conflict with me, a Westerner, so let me shoot it myself, but I may not be able to shoot it well." ”

"Oh, this reason is valid, hehe, then I'll consider the candidate for the second part." Wu Tian said with a smile.

"Wu, I suggest you think about the post-production of the first part first, this is the focus of our work now." Jarvis said with a smile.

**************************************************************************************************************

In fact, when making a sequel to a movie, it is often necessary to wait until the movie is released to see the box office results and audience reputation before making a decision, but Wu Tian doesn't have to worry about these problems at all, the first one he filmed, the box office reputation will not be bad, and there is a trilogy to lay the foundation, and it is not a problem to prepare for the sequel directly.

Just like the "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" series, there is no need to wait for the market reaction at all, and it is completely possible to continue the plan to launch the next one.

"Tianshao, this is the first draft of the third part, please correct it." Director Zhang said to Wu Tian with an expectant expression.

"Hehe, I believe in the level of the two of you, so I don't need to do anything more, right?" Although Wu Tian said this, he still took the script and said, "Then I'll look back, now, let's take a look at the later stage of "The Three-Body Problem" first." ”

"It's better to edit in person, Jarvis should be better at CG, I've already contacted the music, and it's estimated that I'll be able to see the sample soon, and the art part is responsible for ......singing," Lao Zhang said.

The post-production is quite complicated, but everyone is an old director, and all aspects of the problem have already been prepared before the start of filming, so naturally there is no need to worry about messing up.

"Hehe, you'll arrange it, the hardest part this time, it's probably the editing, right?" Wu Tian said with a smile.

In order to get the best photographic effect of "Three-Body Problem", and Wu Tian wants to let the domestic team and the Hollywood team work together and learn, so the shooting team is divided into two teams, and the domestic photography team and the Hollywood team start shooting at the same time in the early shooting.

"Those who can work harder, hehe......" Lao Zhang smiled dryly.

"Well, I'll take care of the editing." Wu Tian said, "Anyway, if you're idle, you're idle......"

Wu Tian became an idler again, after all, it was almost a sensitive period, and Wu Tian could only be "honest" again. Fortunately, after Wu Tian's directorship, Tie Sanshao's prestige has grown rapidly invisibly, and it is completely guaranteed that there will be no accidents.

"Tianshao, there is another thing that you need to be responsible for." Lao Zhang grinned.

"You're the boss? Hehe, what's the matter? Wu Tian said with a smile.

"There's no money." Lao Zhang smacked his lips and said, "Although the crew has been withdrawn, the post-production team is also very expensive." According to the current rate of spending, it is estimated that by the end of the filming, it will be tens of millions ......."

"What's the matter? Let Tianzheng dial 100 million tomorrow, it's not enough to say it, haha......" Wu Tian said with a hearty smile.

For Wu Tian, who is not bad for money, what is it to invest more money? The key is to have fun yourself......

**************************************************************************************************************

"Xiaotian, I have a ......," Xue Keqing said to Wu Tian over the phone.

"Got it? Oh, haha, it seems that Lao Tzu's marksmanship is accurate, haha......" Wu Tian laughed.

"Go, what do you say?" Xue Keqing said angrily.

"Well, I'll arrange a nanny for you to come over and wait for you." Wu Tian smiled, "What about you, the company's affairs are arranged for the people below, and you can concentrate on raising the baby." ”

"No, it's still early, and the company doesn't have much to do anyway." Xue Keqing said.

"If you want, the company will put it first, or simply use a professional manager." Wu Tian said, "It's a big deal to wait until I'm born, and then I'll rearrange a project for you, hehe." ”

"Okay, but I'm too much of a loss, I still have to give you a child, and I have to make money for you, it's hard to live......" Xue Keqing smiled.

"Haha, then let's be bitter." Wu Tian smiled, "Well, I'm busy here, I'll go see you after a while." ”

After hanging up Xue Keqing's phone, Wu Tian grinned wordlessly, saying that he seemed to be a bit too much of a child, this is a problem. After all, they didn't grow up together, so don't be unfamiliar with each other in the future, that's not good......

It seems that his plan must be executed quickly......

"Tianshao, have you read the script?" Director Zhang and Ba Sing knocked on the door at this time and entered Wu Tian's lounge, which was Wu Tian's small lounge in the film and television base.

Wu Tian is still the same, there must be a comfortable sofa in the lounge, half lying on it, seeing Lao Zhang coming in, he put the mobile phone back in his pocket, and said with a smile: "Come on, I'll give you some advice, hehe......"

"Heavenly, please speak." Ba Sing held a pen and a book seriously, waiting to record Wu Tian's opinions.

"There's no need to be so solemn, I'll just have a suggestion." Wu Tian said with a smile, "I took a look at your script, and it was generally good, but I found that there are several plots that are different from the original book and have been modified by you......"

Wu Tian pointed out a few points and said: "If the revised plot is better than the original work, it would be fine, but the content you have modified is much worse than the strength of the original work......

"Well, Tianshao, in these scenes, we are considering the content of the original work, and if we shoot it, I am afraid that the rating will be one level lower......" Director Zhang said, "Anyway, these scenes are not very important plots, and they will not affect the content of the story, so I ...... them."

"The rating is not important, the details are important." Wu Tian said, "Even if the rating will be one level lower, as long as the movie is good, it is the last word." ”

"But, that's going to lose a lot of box office...... Lao Zhang smacked his lips and said, "Besides, a lot of viewers are looking forward to it, and they can't turn people away, right?" ”

"Hehe, then you have to find a way to come up with a more exquisite scene than the original book, otherwise you can use the original scene." Wu Tian said with a smile.

*****************************************************************************************************************************************

"Well, this paragraph should be a better angle chosen by Mi Fang, but this close-up of Tianzheng is better, so cut it out like this and try ......"

Wu Tian commanded the editors, editing the movie one by one.

This is a meticulous job, in an ordinary movie, according to 120 minutes, the shooting material is likely to exceed 1,000 minutes, which is the hard work of the crew, how to choose, but it is a very brain-consuming problem. Therefore, the editor is a separate job, and to a large extent, the director does not have the right to decide on the issue of editing, so the editor will not care if you are willing to delete the clip or not - anyway, it is not your own child, and it is not distressed.

However, when it comes to "The Three-Body Problem", editing is also what Wu Tian said, because a more fatal problem is that "The Three-Body Problem" is two sets of photography teams, and the material shot is as high as 3,000 minutes, and the editor also has a headache, so Wu Tian can only choose one by one.

"Well, Tianshao, this paragraph may not be perfect, the post-production is a little rougher, or should you use this paragraph?" The editor said.

Not only is the photography double-made, but even the post-production has many shots that are double-produced, and they are re-selected when editing, and after the editing version is set, a unified polish is carried out to coordinate the specific special effects or something.

Undoubtedly, this is one of the reasons why the production cost of "The Three-Body Problem" is so expensive.

Before Wu Tian could make a decision, Liu Xiaoyang knocked on the door and came in and said, "Uncle Tian, phone." ”

Wu Tian nodded, and took the phone in the past - when he was in the editing room, he would not answer the phone long ago, and it must be a very important phone call to let Liu Xiaoyang, a new follower, come in and disturb.

"Dad, what's wrong?" Wu Tian looked at the caller ID and said.

"Well, your Uncle Wang is looking for you." After Wu Jianguo finished speaking, he paused, and Secretary Wang's voice came from the phone, saying, "Little God, are you still making movies?" Hehe. ”

"Hello Uncle Wang, I'm still in the northern suburbs studio, hehe." Wu Tian smiled, and his head turned rapidly, thinking about Secretary Wang's purpose for finding himself.

"Hehe, that's disturbing your work." Secretary Wang smiled, "I talked to your father about something just now, and when I talked about you, I will give you a call by the way." Well, the effect you did this time was very good, but the technique, I won't evaluate it, hehe. ”

"It's good if it works, and I can count my worries for my uncles and uncles." Wu Tian said with a smile.

"Well, it's just a compliment to you, nothing else, you keep busy, hehe." Secretary Wang said and hung up the phone.

Wu Tian held his mobile phone and groaned, thinking about the true purpose of Secretary Wang's call. There are two questions about this phone, one is why did Secretary Wang go to his father's place and borrow his father's phone to call himself? Another is, did Secretary Wang mean it himself, or did he come after listening to Uncle Tie's arrangement? It's been a few days, so could it be that there is something else?

"Uncle Tian......" Liu Xiaoyang waited for a long time, and when he saw that Wu Tian was silent, he couldn't help but scream.

"Oh, it's okay, hehe." Wu Tian handed the mobile phone to Liu Xiaoyang and said, "Tell Ma Yuan, I won't stay here tonight, let him prepare the car, and let's go back to Xishan." ”
