Huayu Entertainment: You have been directing for three generations, are you comparing your qualifica

Chapter 24: Preemptive Interception
In the editing room of Xiaole Films.

Tian Xiaole handed the film he brought back to his senior editor who he had worked with at [Supermarket].

He recruited me right after I graduated and put me in charge of film editing.

After determining the editing direction and plot rhythm, a storyboard manuscript was left.

Tian Xiaole went home. He had been away for more than a month and missed Yu Lan a little.

"Grandma, I'm back."

Tian Xiaole knocked on the door and shouted loudly, as if afraid that no one could hear him.

"He's back."

Tian Zhuangzhuang opened the door. Old lady Yu Lan had gone out to practice Tai Chi and was not at home.

She would never have thought that her lovely grandson would come back today.

Under the old jujube tree in the courtyard, the Tian family's father and son were lying on rattan chairs with a coffee table in the middle, enjoying a rare family time.

"You need to speed up the post-production of your film. The registration period is almost over."

"If you sign up with the school's recommendation, you should be able to make it in time."

Tian Xiaole had already calculated the time, so the post-production editing wouldn't take long, and there was no need to worry about the music. Two introductions from Old Tian would be enough.

The most troublesome issue is the review.

In order to pass the review as soon as possible, the script ended with the Xiao father and son surrendering themselves.

However, this scene was not filmed during the filming, and it was not written in the script given to the actors.

At most, subtitles can be added later when the film is released.

Tian Xiaole’s idea was that the version submitted for the film festival did not have the subtitles of surrender, so the Xiao father and son escaped legal punishment.

"This is indeed a bit troublesome. Let me talk to Uncle Zheng."

The person Tian Zhuangzhuang was referring to should be Zheng Dongtian, a professor in the directing department of the Beijing Film Academy and the head of the film censorship committee, who was promoted by Tian Fang when he was the director of the film studio.

He is considered one of the living fossils in the mainland director circle.

Of course, in front of Yu Lan, he had to agree to call him Xiao Zheng.

···
The registration time for Cannes was tight, so Tian Xiaole turned a deaf ear to everything else and stayed in the editing room, where his two senior brothers were in charge of the editing.

He is responsible for post-production correction and color grading.

Thanks to the tone set before filming, the rhythm and colors are very tight, so post-production didn't require much effort.

It took just a week to insert the soundtrack, and the overall plot is perfect.

When Lao Tian heard that the film editing was completed, he hurried over to take a look at it first.

He knew it was a good movie during filming, but as to how good it was, he would have to watch the entire movie to know.

After the two-hour screening, Tian Zhuangzhuang's eyes were slightly red.

My only feeling is that the old Tian family has a successor, and the successor is even better than his predecessor.

In the screening room, Tian Zhuangzhuang silently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes. Besides feeling relieved, he also felt that he was really old.

The texture of the entire movie far exceeded his expectations, and he couldn't help but clap his legs in admiration.

"Old Tian, ​​please register the film through the school. As for the review, I'll leave it to you."

As one of the three newcomers in Europe, Tian Xiaole registered for a film festival for the first time, which usually requires recommendation from filmmakers.

He registered through the Beijing Film Academy, which not only saved him a lot of trouble but also made the judges pay more attention to him.

"Well, give me two copies to take away later."

···
Lao Tian left with two copies of the film.

Tian Xiaole finally has time to rest. He has been working day and night to finish the post-production of the movie.

He swore that he would never make his schedule so tight again.

Not only is it tiring, it also damages your liver.

"Boss, this is the invitation letter I received recently."

Yang Tianzhen knocked on the door and came in with a stack of letters in her hand.

"Oh, the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Awards."

Tian Xiaole looked at the invitation in his hand. It was an invitation to participate in the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Awards with "Crazy Supermarket" and "Heart Maze." These uncles and aunts were quite well-informed. Supermarket was fine with it, but as for "Heart Maze," forget it.

"Reply there and I'll take [Crazy Supermarket] with me."

He was also invited to attend movie premieres, but they were all from directors he wasn't very familiar with, so he rejected them all.

After Yang Tianzhen left the room, Tian Xiaole lay down in the boss chair. During this busy period, his phone was not idle.

I received a lot of text messages and MMS.

Someone sent this from Huang Shengyi:
"Brother, Zhou Xingchi is so fierce on the set, with a sullen face all the time. I still prefer the atmosphere during the filming of Supermarket, even though there was a woman I didn't like there."

"Brother, my look is a bit similar to when I filmed [Supermarket]. I think it's the type you like."

Tian Xiaole turned to the MMS sent by Huang Shengyi. She had waist-length hair draped over her shoulders, a white towel draped over her shoulders, a white shirt on her upper body, a white skirt on her lower body, and a pair of small white shoes.

The photo is like a painting, giving people a sense of youthful and lively purity.

Thinking of her wildness and submissiveness in private, which was in stark contrast to the photos, my lower abdomen felt hot.

MMS were not only sent by Huang Shengyi, most of them were sent by Yan Ni.

She is very good at making use of her own advantages and dressing in various styles, including hot, refreshing, transparent and seductive.

“It’s so smooth!”

Tian Xiaole couldn't help but sigh.

Most of Tang Yan's text messages were greetings, and she seemed quite restrained and not open enough.

"Brother Tian, ​​I was chosen by director Zhang Yimou as the Olympic baby to perform in the 8-minute Beijing performance at the Athens closing ceremony."

I have to say that Tang Yan is really lucky. She had been filming in the countryside for more than a month and her skin had become several shades darker.

It was not her turn to get a spot, but she was smart and directly said that she wanted to film Tian Xiaole's scene, so she was selected.

Among them, Wang Luodan sent the most text messages and MMS messages most frequently.

"What a hardworking and ambitious woman. Should we give her a chance?"

After the filming of the movie is completed and I am waiting for review and registration, I have some free time, so it’s okay to have some fun.

Tian Xiaole turned off his phone. He would not take the initiative to hint, nor would he force, nor would he give any status.

There is no gain without giving. Only when he has something and is willing to exchange it will he trade.

···
Tian Xiaole planned to go back to school first. He was still a student, so he decided to cancel his leave first.

Walking in the school, you can see handsome men and beautiful women everywhere.

The only one who lowers the overall appearance is probably Huang Bo, but he is in the dubbing class.

When Tian Xiaole walked in the school, he was stared at as usual. The braver ones came up to him and asked for his contact information, not missing any opportunity.

Tian Xiaole went to the teacher's office of the directing department, but found that Old Tian was not there.

On the way back to the dormitory, I saw Ning Hao, who had graduated a long time ago.

I heard that after the investor of [Xianghuo] ran away, he paid 4 yuan out of his own pocket by living frugally.

At this stage, he is still in the developmental stage. It will take another two years for him to shine. He will be invited to Liu Dehua's Asian New Director Program to shoot "Crazy Stone".

But now, "madness" has taken over.

"Wait, why does [Stone] have to be his? The "Crazy" series has already taken the spot, why not do it?"

Tian Xiaole had a flash of inspiration and thought about this problem. He decided to copy the script of "Stone" and find someone to shoot it.

The movie has no star cast, low investment, little publicity, and the release date is also chosen randomly.

It was in this situation that "Stone" became a dark horse, stunning everyone with its box office and reputation.

Now that it is filmed two years in advance and is marketed as the sequel to "Supermarket", I believe the movie will be even more popular when it is released.

The biggest problem now is that Tian Xiaole is definitely not suitable to direct this kind of low-budget movie anymore.

Which domestic director has this style and can make this humorous movie well?

For a moment, I really couldn't think of anyone who could direct it.

Never mind, let’s get the script done first.

Tian Xiaole went straight back to the dormitory and opened his laptop.
