Chapter 222: Quick, Look Down, Return to the Team
The post-production of "The Hidden Lurker" is not really hard.
How many post-production workers have an easy time? ?
Especially in recent years, whether it is movies, TV series, or variety shows, post-production is basically a miserable one.
There is no way.
Nowadays, the speed of artistes' reputation collapse is too fast, sometimes even faster than the speed of the birth of new traffic fans every year.
But everyone feels willing to do the post-production of "The Hidden Lurker".
Because Xin Hui really doesn't fool them.
For example, some post-production workers now often have to stay up late, not only to do editing and post-production, but also to try every means to eliminate bad artists.
So, sometimes some post-production workers want to just lie down, or even just give up.
Because most post-production workers often have low wages, and the bosses also deduct all kinds of money, after all, many post-productions are outsourced.
Basically, 30% of the final pay that falls into the hands of post-production is good.
But Xin Hui is different.
Xin Hui really gives the post-production workers the full treatment.
Let's not talk about the red envelopes for now.
The most important thing is that Xin Hui specially invited a chef to prepare meals for the post-production of "The Hidden Lurker" and to match the diet reasonably.
In short, the logistics were arranged clearly.
From September 11, when "For Whom the Bell Tolls" resumed filming, "The Hidden Lurker" also started post-production. Xin Hui also held a meeting with the post-production team to encourage them.
In the next 10 days, except for staying up late, these post-production staff basically ate comfortably, with all kinds of nutritious food.
Not only that, Xin Hui also told everyone that after the post-production was completed, everyone would be invited to relax for half a month, and it was paid to go and play.
You say, the treatment is like this, how can everyone not work hard to finish the work at this time? ? ?
So, in 10 days, working overtime, especially when shooting, basically using the "final cut" shooting method, so basically the editing work was completed.
This really has to be attributed to Lin Xing.
Because from the beginning, when filming "The Hidden Lurker", Lin Xing wrote the script clearly, and even Lin Xing learned to draw storyboards before.
Basically, when Lin Xing and Dong Deng were discussing the script, they filmed according to the final effect.
Like the filming of a general TV series, because it involves some situations of the actors, many times it is necessary to film someone first and someone later, so the editing needs to be re-edited.
But "The Hidden Lurker" is not like this.
After all, the actors are the original cast.
In this way, the filming is also done exactly as it is.
It is based on the story line of "The Hidden Lurker".
In this way, when editing and producing in the later stage, it can basically achieve twice the result with half the effort.
But even so, it is not easy to complete the post-production of a real-life game of such a size as "The Hidden Lurker" in 10 days.
"Thank you for your hard work, everyone."
Xin Hui once again invited all the post-production staff to have dinner together. At the same time, he said to the many post-production staff: "As I said before, I, Xin Hui, don't have much else, but I have a lot of money, and I think only money can express my gratitude to everyone..."
While speaking, Xin Hui gave everyone red envelopes.
It was indeed a big red envelope.
In the past 10 days, everyone was originally paid three times the salary, and this red envelope was almost equivalent to everyone's salary for several months.
Not to mention that Xin Hui also sponsored them to go out and play for half a month.
"Thank you, Mr. Xin."
"Thank you, Mr. Xin."
"Thank you so much, Mr. Xin."
...
Every staff member thanked Xin Hui from the bottom of their hearts.
"Okay, everyone just eat and drink to your heart's content tonight."
Xin Hui waved his hand and said: "This hotel is mine. After everyone has eaten and drunk enough, you can go for a massage or take a bath. All the expenses today are charged to me, Xin Hui."
Mr. Xin is awesome.
Although everyone didn't say anything, they couldn't help but start to roar in their hearts.
Later, Xin Hui said to Lin Xing: "Old Lin, thank you for your hard work."
Lin Xing laughed: "I'm not that tired, I just keep an eye on everyone and control the overall situation."
"Isn't it hard? Lao Zhao and the several supervisors in charge of the post-production have told me."
Xin Hui waved his hand and said: "They are the axle, you are almost the axle, and the fact that this editing can be completed so quickly is inseparable from your relationship."
Xin Hui didn't know these things from Lin Xing.
Xin Hui even felt that this was Lin Xing, always not high-handed, and doing things down-to-earth.
It was like this before, and Lin Xing is still like this now.
You see, after Lin Xing praised the game in "Secret Lurker", although he always said that he was just playing around, almost no one was more serious than Lin Xing.
Xin Hui just has a lot of money, he is not a fool.
Who is really helping him and who is trying to cheat him, Xin Hui can still tell.
After all, after being cheated for a long time, basically all kinds of scams are well known.
When Lao Zhao and Xin Hui were drinking, they talked about how Lin Xing worked so hard on the crew. Lao Zhao even felt that he had underestimated Lin Xing before.
Talented, but not outstanding.
The most important thing is that Lin Xing has never looked aloof. He was like a brick on the set of "For Whom the Bell Tolls", being moved wherever needed.
Even sometimes during the filming of several scenes, some of the supporting actors did not realize that Lin Xing was the same Lin Xing.
Then came the crew of "The Hidden Lurker". Rather than being a screenwriter, Lin Xing is more suitable to be said to be the overall controller.
From the script to the filming, from the discussion of the plot, the integration of actors, the training of some actors, etc., Lin Xing even sometimes did Dong Deng's work.
And Xin Hui had never said this from Lin Xing's mouth. Xin Hui heard it all from the crew.
Xin Hui felt that this friend was indeed not in vain.
"Okay, let's not be so polite between us."
Lin Xing said with some humor: "Besides, it's hard to say how this "Secret Lurker" game will be, so you still have to be mentally prepared."
"Don't worry, Lao Lin, I said before, I can accept the final result of this game no matter where it goes."
Xin Hui said with a smile: "What's more, all I want is word-of-mouth, as long as the reputation of "The Hidden Lurker" can be better."
Xin Hui said this before editing, and now Xin Hui said it again.
There are only 9 days until National Day.
Lin Xing asked with concern: "Are you sure the game production team can make it in time?"
"Don't worry, it will definitely be in time. I have invited most of the big guys in the industry to come over for this game. They have already laid out the structure. All we need to do is embed the finished film of "The Hidden Lurker" into it, and then we can do it a little bit." After a little debugging, there will basically be no problem. ”
Xin Hui laughed: "I'm really looking forward to it."
The next day, Lin Xing came to the set of "For Whom the Bell Tolls".
"Axing, are you done???"
Wei Fei was a little surprised when she saw Lin Xing.
After all, everyone knows that after the current resumption of work, Lin Xing's filming needs to be postponed, because Lin Xing needs all his energy to make "The Hidden Lurker".
You must know that "The Hidden Lurker" will be launched on October 1st.
Although everyone privately feels that the quality of the game "Secret Lurker" will be greatly reduced if it is launched so early, but everyone can accept it, whether it is Wei Fei or An Yifeng.
This world is sometimes like this. Actors cannot determine the rhythm of the entire drama.
Just like An Yifeng, many people think that she has only been in the film industry for ten years, but the scripts of the movies she made are actually quite good.
But who knows why the script became crooked during filming, and what was a good film from the beginning turned into a bad film.
This is the norm.
Everyone in "The Hidden Lurker" initially recognized the brilliance of the script, or some of the innovations in the plot, especially the recurring ending of resurrection. An Yifeng even wanted to try a game.
But it was too fast.
Games often require slow work and meticulous work, and this is not only true for games, but also for movies and TV series. Many times, if the shooting is fast and complicated, it often turns out to be a bad movie.
After all, Wei Fei had also been a producer, so she knew a thing or two about it.
"Sister Fei, the editing is over."
Lin Xing said: "Of course I will come back to shoot."
"Is it over? Isn't it only 10 days??"
Wei Fei was a little stunned: "This is too fast."
"Originally, "The Hidden Lurker" is not strictly speaking long and is considered a short drama. In addition, when we were shooting, most of the shots were in the final cut mode. Many of them were shot in one shot, and then a few more shots were saved, and even We shot some scenes dozens of times just to enrich the material library..."
Lin Xing said with a smile: "What's more important is that the money given by Xin Hui was very adequate, and he worked very hard in the later period..."
"It does have an impact."
Wei Fei was also stunned.
Because she knows how powerful money is.
Just like some people in the gaming circle are now complaining about Xin Hui, can you do whatever you want if you have money? ?
But to be honest, Xin Hui can really do whatever he wants if he has money.
"Axing, are you back??"
"Axing..."
At this time, An Yifeng and Wang Lu also came over.
An Yifeng aside, Wang Lu was really happy to see Lin Xing. After all, once Lin Xing arrived, he could then shoot the scenes between Wang Lu and Lin Xing.
What's more important is that Wang Lu still has some script questions he wants to ask Lin Xing.
"I'm back. The editing was completed yesterday, and then everyone had a meal together to celebrate the completion of the work..."
Lin Xing spread his hands and said, "Of course I want to return to the team."
"Welcome back to the team."
Dong Deng strode over: "Didn't I tell you to rest for two days before joining the group? I heard from Xiao Tan that you are going to kill them."
This Xiao Tan is the supervisor of the post-production team of "The Hidden Lurker". He is also the post-production producer of "For Whom the Bell Tolls".
After all, I mentioned before that the original cast of "For Whom the Bell Tolls" are basically all on the crew of "The Hidden Lurker".
This original cast is not just talking about actors, but also promotion, post-production, etc.
"Director Dong, that's because Xiao Tan and the others praise me. To be honest, they worked hard to complete the post-production."
Lin Xing said hurriedly: "I just talked a lot."
"Ah Xing, you don't have to be so modest, you came at the right time."
Dong Deng waved his hand and said: "Then let's shoot you and Wang Lu first."
Speaking of this, Dong Deng paused and said: "Is it okay?"
Lin Xing said: "No problem, but which scene do you want to shoot??
