Chapter Seventy-Five: The Ugly Daughter-in-law Always Wants to See Her In-laws
Gu Bei and the others could rest for three days after they came back, but Yang Jie, as the chief director of "Journey to the West", didn't even return home, and went directly to the stage, and after reporting to Hong Minsheng and Ruan Ruolin, the two leaders, they rushed into the editing room.
The leaders of the station demanded that "Demon Removal and Black Chicken Country" must be broadcast on October 1, the National Day, and it had already been published in the newspaper.
Now not only the leaders above, but also the TV audience across the country are looking forward to it.
Yang Jie didn't dare to delay time, and the post-production of "Demon Removal and Black Chicken Country" was completed one day earlier, so that her heart could really be down-to-earth.
Not only editing, but also dubbing and soundtrack, the completion of filming is only the first step, and the follow-up work is also complicated, and Yang Jie, the chief director, is responsible for it.
Although Yang Jie is not very satisfied with many places in the test set, now that the filming has been completed, it is obviously unrealistic to go back and repair it.
Moreover, the leader has already reported the crew's return to Beijing, and they are now waiting for her samples.
Listening to Ruan Ruolin, not only will it be submitted for trial, but the station is also preparing to invite some experts to come over.
Yang Jie hurriedly asked the station about the experts she was going to invite, and when Ruan Ruolin finished reporting the names of Wu Zuguang, Xie Tian, Li Wanchun, Yuan Shihai, Zheng Rong and a large number of authoritative experts in various fields, she only felt that her scalp was numb.
As if he had seen the scene, a group of authority figures surrounded her verbally and penually.
Yang Jie knows that she has no right to refuse, the only thing she can do is to cut out the sample as soon as possible, and then wait for the review.
I was bored in the editor for seven days in a row, and when Gu Bei and the others came to work, they didn't see anyone.
Finally, the dailies were cut out, and it was time for the final judgment.
The review meeting was set for the next day, and Yang Jie went home after handing in the samples, although her heart kept going up and down, her body was extremely tired, and she fell asleep in the dark as soon as she lay down on the bed.
When I woke up, it was already the next day, no matter how worried I was, the ugly daughter-in-law still had to see her in-laws after all, and she couldn't escape this catastrophe.
When she arrived at the unit and sat in the office, Yang Jie couldn't calm down for a long time, and at this time, she remembered Ling Zifeng.
When I went to Beijing Film Studio to invite Wang Xizhong, when I met Ling Zifeng, didn't he also say that he was going to prepare for the filming of "Journey to the West"?
I wonder how it's going?
Yang Jie hurriedly called Ling Zifeng, wanting to invite him to come and see this trial episode, and give some comments by the way.
Outcome......
"I'm not going to shoot anymore, I've decided to give up."
Yang Jie was stunned when she heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Why?" ”
"I read the original book carefully and found that the whole story, after Sun Wukong learned from Tang Seng, there was nothing to film, all the monsters caught Tang Seng, either to eat, or to get married, and then Sun Wukong went to rescue, and if he couldn't save it, he went to find rescuers, all of them are like this, it's too similar, and I can't shoot it famously, so I won't shoot it, and now I'm in the field, and I'm filming other scenes."
Yang Jie was dumbfounded when she heard it, and she also remembered what Gu Bei had said to her at that time.
Could it be true that this kid has front and back eyes?
He said that Ling Zifeng couldn't shoot it, and people really didn't shoot it.
Moreover, the reason why Ling Zifeng gave up was ......
Yang Jie recalled this carefully, as if Gu Bei had also mentioned it at the preparatory meeting, and Gu Bei particularly emphasized at that time that there are many similar contents in "Journey to the West", and we must pay attention to widening the distance between those similar stories.
Whether in terms of storyline, character or geographical selection, it is necessary to separate and rearrange the story, so as to ensure that the audience will not get bored and tired of the story because of the same plot in the future.
This kid really took all the problems into account!
Yang Jiezheng sighed, someone came to inform that the film review meeting had begun.
"Got it, I'll be there soon!"
Yang Jie sent people away, prepared pens and notebooks, and then mustered up her spirits and walked out with an indomitable pace.
But as soon as she arrived at the door, Yang Jie was stunned.
Wang Chongqiu, Sun Yongsheng, Zhu Xiaofeng, Peng Li, and other staff members of the crew, of course, Gu Bei is also indispensable.
Li Chengru didn't come, he is not a regular employee of CCTV, and whether "Journey to the West" can continue is not certain now, so he returned to his original unit.
"Director Yang, come on!"
Peng Li shouted, and the others followed suit.
Seeing this scene, Yang Jie suddenly laughed and replied: "It's not for me to cheer, it's for our films." ”
Success or failure depends on whether the film is competitive or not, whether it can impress the leaders, and the hearts of the experts.
Walking into the conference room, the leaders of the station, a station director, three deputy directors, the leaders of radio and television, and the experts invited by the station have all arrived.
There was a curtain hanging in front of the conference room, a projector was placed on the table, and the foreign films had been set up, just waiting for the leader's order.
"Let's get started!"
Wang Feng exchanged greetings with the leaders of radio and television, as well as the experts who were invited to come, and said to the staff on the side.
Yang Jie sat in the corner very consciously, and began to beat the drum again in her heart.
The lights go out, the projector makes a "whoosh" sound, and the curtain lights up.
At that moment, Yang Jie's heart directly rose to her throat.
Especially when those ugly shapes of Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie appeared on the screen, Yang Jie really couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to drill down.
She didn't know what Mr. Li Wanchun, the Northern Monkey King, would say?
I don't know if the leaders, can the experts accept this style of "Journey to the West"?
The only thought at the moment is that I hope that this test set will not be shot.
During the whole process, in addition to the occasional cough, there was also the sound of striking matches, and the silence in the conference room made Yang Jie feel irritable.
The set is forty-six minutes, but for Yang Jie, it seems like a century has passed, but fortunately, when she edited, she deleted some verbose plots.
Otherwise, she was afraid that she would have a heart attack because of nervousness.
It's finally over, and I don't have to see that ugly pig monkey again.
But Yang Jie just breathed a sigh of relief, and then her heart was lifted again.
The results are coming soon.
Slap, slap, slap......
Belch?
Someone was applauding, and then the applause gradually became warm, which made Yang Jie at a loss.
What does that mean?
At this moment, Yang Jie, who has always been astute, is also rarely slow to react once.
"Yes, yes!"
"Well, it's really good, I didn't expect to shoot so well in such a short time!"
Someone finally opened her mouth, and when she heard that it was a compliment, Yang Jie couldn't believe it, for fear that these leading experts would say the opposite.
Immediately after, there were more and more words of praise and affirmation.
Mr. Wu Zuguang also said happily: "The road of using realism to express romantic themes is successful, and it is a valuable work to change classical masterpieces into TV dramas, but it is indeed very difficult, but the film is quite good." ”
Xie Tian, the veteran director of Beijing Film, also said: "The "Journey to the West" filmed in a small day is not as good as ours, and it is not sloppy at all, it is not low-level, and it is difficult to shoot a mythological story!" Very successful and satisfied! ”
Hearing these words, Yang Jie's hanging heart relaxed a little, and then looked at those opera masters.
What she was most worried about was that Li Wanchun and Yuan Shihai would raise objections to the shape of the monkey, but she never expected it.
When she went to visit Mr. Li Wanchun, Mr. Li was still insisting that Sun Wukong must hook his face, otherwise it would not be called art, but at this moment, Mr. Li affirmed the shape of Sun Wukong in the sample.
even said: "You are the real Monkey King!" ”
In an instant, Yang Jie felt that a big stone had finally fallen to the ground.
"Director Yang, it's not easy!"
At this time, Director Wang Feng also walked in front of Yang Jie, who has always felt very serious, and today he rarely showed a smiling face.
"I should apologize to you for the party. At the committee, when everyone discussed the director of "Journey to the West", I voted against you, but fortunately, Deputy Director Hong and Deputy Director Ruan insisted, otherwise, we wouldn't have seen such a good show today, good, really good! ”
Hearing Wang Feng say the same, Yang Jie was in a trance, she knew that "Journey to the West" was handed over to her to film, and Wang Feng had always been quite complaining.
Now that she can be recognized by Wang Feng, Yang Jie even has a feeling of raising her eyebrows.
"Also...... It's not good enough, many places are still very rough, especially in terms of modeling and performance, there is still a lot of room for improvement, if the leader still continues to shoot for me, I will definitely strive to do better. ”
Speaking out what was in her heart, Yang Jie looked at every leader with a look of hope, although everyone recognized the level of the trial set just now, but she couldn't hear the leader's personal promise that "Journey to the West" could continue to be filmed, and she still felt unsteady in her heart.
Hearing Yang Jie's words, Wang Feng and the others all laughed.
Ruan Ruolin said: "Everyone is familiar with the story of "Journey to the West", and there are such good cartoons, so many stage plays, and then adapted into TV series, it is very difficult, the TV series "Journey to the West" we see today should be said to have reached a very high level, it is not an exaggeration to say that a TV film like this is also first-class when it goes abroad! ”
Wang Feng nodded, and then said: "Deputy Director Ruan is right, we can reach this level, whether as a leader or as an audience, we are already very satisfied, but since Director Yang said that there is still room for improvement, then we should wait and see, I hope Director Yang can give us greater surprises in the future." ”
Future?
Yang Jie immediately caught the keyword.
"Chief Wang, what do you mean...... The work of our group can be ......"
"If I don't let you continue, I'm afraid the national audience won't agree!"
When this sentence came out of Wang Feng's mouth, Yang Jie was so excited that she almost shouted out, tried to control her excitement, and sent the experts and radio and television leaders away with the leaders of the station.
Yang Jie followed and couldn't wait to rush to the office where the preparatory team had a meeting, and sure enough, the big guys were waiting here.
"Director Yang, what's the ...... How's it going? ”
Yang Jie was tormented at the film review meeting just now, and similarly, Gu Bei and the people who were waiting here were also uncomfortable.
Seeing Yang Jie come in, everyone couldn't wait to know the result.
"Start tomorrow and keep working!"
"Great, ......"
Everyone immediately cheered when they heard this, but they were pressed down by Yang Jie at the beginning.
"It's too early to be happy, remember, this is just the first step of the long march, Xiao Gu, why didn't Li Chengru come today? Notify him to come to work, absenteeism? Go back and ask him to write a review. ”
Gu Bei agreed with a smile and looked at Director Yang Jie, who was pretending to be calm.
Little old lady, I think I can do it again!
