Chapter 12

"Wow, young man, how did you get it?" Lao Wang asked in surprise.

Forty-one rolls of film, including hundreds of lenses, can be said to be complex and complex, and it is enough to make people dazzled. Without reference to the field record, if you want to clarify your clues and find the materials you use, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Lao Wang really couldn't figure out what Xia Tian did, and he could actually handle these forty-one rolls of film in an orderly manner.

"Actually nothing special, mainly because I have a good memory. After all, I took these materials, so when I saw this image, I remember which scene they were." Xia Tian explained with a smile.

"Oh, so that's how it is." Old Wang breathed a sigh of relief. This reason was acceptable, otherwise Xia Tian's performance would be too evil.

Seeing that Xia Tian understood both screenwriter and director, photography and editing, he was simply a versatile talent, and was much better than the director he used before, he couldn't help but feel a little bit loving talent in his heart.

"Ah Tian, ​​good job!" He also praised, and finally showed a hint of joy on his face.

"Brother Tian, ​​you are really good. They are all frightened by you." Chen Yixin leaned into Xia Tian's ear and laughed whispered.

In fact, the truth is that last night, Xia Tian and Chen Yixin had already made secret memories while filming. Of course, they couldn't see it if others didn't know it, but they knew it clearly, so they could sort out the forty-one rolls of film in a short time.

Buck Ya Bing and Lao Wang were completely frightened by them. Looking at their stunned look, they really made people laugh.

Xia Tian didn't have the intention to watch jokes with Chen Yixin. He was focusing on editing this "Midnight Wolf".

Editing is the most crucial part of the film's post-production, and it is even comparable to the filming process. Because of this, in Hollywood, directors only enjoy the power to shoot movies, but the power to edit movies belongs to the production company.

Only a few people, such as Peter Jackson (representative work "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy), Michael Bay (representative work "Pearl Harbor", "Transformers", Stephen Spielberg (representative work "The Raiders of the Lost Ark" series, "Schindler's List"), have the final editing rights.

Xia Tian deliberately chose the scene after Amin left, but in addition to digging a hole to let Ahua jump, the more important purpose was to give himself the power to edit the movie.

If a director doesn't even have the power to edit, it is equivalent to having a baby with ten months of pregnancy, but in the end the child cannot be raised by himself.

Although Xia Tian took over the movie "Midnight Wolf" halfway, he has devoted a lot of effort to it. Not only did he rewritten the script, add and delete the lines, but he also added a lot of ingenuity in the shooting techniques. This originally mediocre C-level film has the potential to become an excellent ethical film and thriller. So he doesn't want to see any editor who can touch his efforts.

...

Three hours later, Xia Tian finally finished cutting the entire film.

After watching the preview, everyone present was shocked.

"Wow, Brother Bing, this movie is really good. I'm sure it can be sold at a good box office." Lao Wang said flatteringly with a smile.

Buckya Bing was so happy that he couldn't stop talking. Although he had no artistic cultivation and could not tell the quality of the movie, his sense of market was still good. He also felt that this "Midnight Wolf" could definitely be sold at a good box office.

Because he had several impulses when he watched this movie just now. This situation hasn't been around for a long time, so he is sure that this drama will definitely be sold for money.

"A Tian, ​​you did a good job, thank you so much." He happily patted Xia Tian on the shoulder.

"Brother Bing, don't be so happy so early. Didn't you see that there are still some problems with this movie?" Xia Tian waved his hand and said solemnly.

"What's the problem?! I don't think so." Buck Ya Bing glanced at Lao Wang and shook his head.

"I didn't see any problem either." Lao Wang shook his head in confusion.

"Then you watch it again, pay attention to the thirteenth minute, the fortyth minute, and the sixty-seventh minute, these three scenes are not connected at all." Xia Tian pointed out.

After fast forwarding and reading it again, Buck Ya Bing and Lao Wang also noticed these three small flaws at this time. To be honest, these are not too serious, just the scene changes too quickly and there is a lack of transition in the middle. If you are not too picky, these small flaws are not a problem at all. "It's no big deal, just like that." Buck Ya Bing said indifferently.

"That's right, this is just a C-level movie, so there is no need to make a fuss. There are even more serious flaws than this. Even the movie star may change people in the middle." Lao Wang also waved his hand.

Xia Tian smiled, "Since you don't care, I can't say anything more. But we can say that first. If the audience picks on this problem after the release and will cause the box office to be affected, then it won't be blamed."

After hearing what he said, Buck Ya Bing's face suddenly froze. Although he was optimistic about the box office of this movie, if it was really hit by Xia Tian, ​​the crow's mouth, the good and bad spirit really affected the box office, that would be bad.

"No, it's just a small flaw. Only if you are careful can you tell it. Brother Bing and I didn't see it." Old Wang curled his lips, thinking that Xia Tian was a bit of a big deal.

"The Thousand Mile Dike is destroyed by the ant hole. If this movie is just a mediocre C-level film, the highest box office is only 100,000 to 200,000 Hong Kong dollars, it is indeed not necessary to be too serious. But the box office of this movie is likely to be very high now, and it may reach the level of 300,000 to 400,000 Hong Kong dollars. If the box office is really affected by these small flaws, wouldn't that be a pity?" Xia Tian retorted.

After hearing what he said, Buck Ya Bing also felt that it made sense. It was like buying a fake watch on Temple Street, which cost only a few dozen yuan, and even if it fell to the ground and broke it, it would not be distressed. But if you buy a real Rolex in a famous store, even if there is a scratch on the glass, you will feel distressed.

Now, because of the good filming of "Midnight Wolf" in summer and well-cut, it has been upgraded from a fake on Temple Street to a genuine product in a famous brand store. To be honest, if it hadn't been agreed with those underground theater vendors, he would have really planned to try whether it could be released in regular theaters.

"Okay, what do you think you should do?" Buck Ya Bing thought about it and asked Xia Tian.

"I think I still need to take some shots." Xia Tian thought for a while.

"Re-shoot the camera?! Then you have to find the person again." Buck Ya Bing hesitated a little. When he found the actor, he would have to pay another salary. He was really reluctant to leave.

Xia Tian didn't give any more advice, but just stood aside silently, waiting for Buck Ya Bing to make a decision.

"Okay, then I'll get the person back." After measuring the gains and losses, Buck Ya Bing finally decided.

Retrieve the person back, it is just a few thousand dollars. But if the movie sells a big shot, it will be a profit of more than 100,000 or hundreds of thousands. Which end is lighter and which end is heavy, you can naturally distinguish it clearly.

When Xia Tian heard him say this, he immediately laughed happily.

In this way, both the actors and crew members can receive the pay they deserve.

In fact, the materials he photographed were enough and there would be no flaws at all. He just wanted to use this method to let Buck Ya Bing give everyone the money they deserved.

...

Buck Ya Bing then sent someone to call and summon all the previous crew members back.

But after a moment, the feedback made him furious.

"Brother Bing, Luo Qinghao said that unless the previous pay is paid, he will not come back to re-shoot."

"The heroine also asked to pay the salary first, and she didn't want to be delayed by us for another month."

...

The subordinates reported back in turn.

After hearing these news, Buck-Take Bing was so angry that he slapped the table. His 24K-shaped big brother, who had been so idle, had even these actors dared to show his face. Didn't he just deduct a little pay, and he actually dared to shy face with him, and he really turned against them.

Of course, it wasn't that no one hated him for being owed a payment before, but Buck Ya Bing had never tried making a movie, so even if everyone had any objections to him, he couldn't hear it at all.

The buck-fang Bing is a crow falling on the pig, only seeing others black, but not seeing themselves black. He just thought that he could save a small amount of money by deducting other people's pay, but he wouldn't think that it might be someone else's life money.

"This damn Ah Hua, nothing can be done. If you want to turn against me, you will talk about it after the matter is finished. Now I am really too passive." Buck Ya Bing complained to Ah Hua again.

In fact, Ah Hua was instructed to give in to his pay, but of course he could not admit it, and he did not think that he was wrong in doing so. In Hong Kong, no 10% of the pay owed to his pay was 99%. The reason why he was unlucky now was that Ah Hua was not doing his job properly.

"This trash, I really only know how to cause trouble for me." He said with hatred. Today he had accumulated a lot of resentment towards Ah Hua, and now, with this incident, he was really angry with him.

"Okay, give them their pay." After weighing the pros and cons, he finally made a decision and said, "That Ah Hua won't let me see him again in the future." He slapped the table and said. If he hadn't done his job properly, he wouldn't have lost tens of thousands of dollars.

Xia Tian and Chen Yixin saw that he was so angry that they were smoked, and Ah Hua deserved it. The actors got their hard-earned money again, and they couldn't help but laugh secretly.

"Brother Tian, ​​you are really good. Not only do you play buck teeth, but you also use a little trick to get rid of Ah Hua." Chen Yixin said with a smile.

"The most important thing is that everyone has received a paycheck, which is the most happy thing." Xia Tian said happily.

Happy New Year, dear book friends!
