I became popular on the stage

Chapter 658 Come, let me show you my movie! (Two in one, ask for a monthly pass)

"Perfect ending!"

"Haha, this speed."

"It's too fast."

"It's only been two months."

"I can't even imagine it."

Everyone was discussing excitedly, and their voices revealed shock.

They have never seen a Hollywood movie that can be completed within two months, and it is also a mecha movie with the most cumbersome special effects.Generally speaking, it is not uncommon for ordinary Hollywood blockbusters to be filmed for a year or two.Many movies can even drag on for years or more.

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they couldn't believe it at all.

However, after seeing Lin Xuan's super high efficiency, everyone had to admit that two months was indeed enough.Even if it wasn't for the waste of too much time due to the unfamiliarity of the crew in the early stage, I am afraid that the time could be shortened.

Other crews may have to shoot a dozen or even dozens of times for a single shot.

Lin Xuan, on the other hand, basically takes one step to the stomach... Cough, one step!
This is equivalent to other directors taking a few days to shoot a scene, and Lin Xuan may finish it in half an hour.With such an exaggerated sales volume, how could it not be progressing fast?

Today, because it was the finale, except for Anthony, Cyril, Barron and others all rushed over.

Cyril said blankly: "It's really too fast."

Barron exclaimed, "How the hell did he do that?"

Cyril: "It is often said that slow work produces meticulous work. With such a fast speed, can the quality be guaranteed?"

Barron shook his head: "I'm also a little worried."

Anthony smiled: "I don't know what the final product of the movie will look like, but the quality of the shooting should be guaranteed, and there is no perfunctory situation."

"what?"

The two widened their eyes.

They know Anthony's ability. Since the world's top actor said so, the quality must be fine.

But...the two became even more curious. Since the quality can be guaranteed, how did Lin Xuan make a mecha movie in such a short period of time?

Seeing the expressions of the two, Anthony smiled and said: "If you have the opportunity to participate in the filming of Lin Xuan in the future, you will know why."

soon.

The killing ceremony is over.

Lin Xuan walked over and looked at Anthony and the others: "Mr. Anthony, Mr. Cyril, and Mr. Barron, the pre-shooting of the film announces a paragraph, and the next step is post-production. Three people are needed to dub."

"Row."

"no problem."

"can."

The three nodded in agreement.

Lin Xuan looked at Huang Ming who had been following him all the time: "Mr. Huang, announce to the outside world that "Transformers" is finished."

……

……

It's noon this day.

The Second World issued an announcement: "After two and a half months of intense shooting, Lin Xuan's first Hollywood mecha sci-fi movie "Transformers" has officially wrapped!!!"

Below the announcement is a beautiful finale poster.

Lin Xuan stood at the front, and behind him were Adonis, Guan Yuman, Anthony... and others cheering.

Then, Lin Xuan forwarded the announcement.

Adonis retweeted it.

Guan Yuman reposted it.

Anthony, Cyril, and others all retweeted it.

After a few minutes.

The news exploded.

Everyone looked at the content of this announcement with a look of confusion.

……

North American cinema.

Everyone was dazed, as if in a dream.

"what?"

"Lin Xuan filming is over?"

"God! True or false?"

"I remember he only started filming two months ago?"

"Fuck!"

"What a joke."

……

Europe.

"what's going on?"

"Mecha sci-fi movie, you two months to finish it?"

"Why don't you go so fast even after you've had chicken blood?"

"I don't believe it, it's impossible."

"Don't talk about mecha movies, even ordinary movies can't do it."

……

Southeast Asia

"I said earlier that Chinese people don't understand Hollywood."

"Is he joking?"

"Damn! Two months, you think you're making a short play?"

"Lin Xuan, you should be more serious. What the hell is shooting a sci-fi film in two months?"

"Go ahead and sing."

"Laugh to death."

……

in Hollywood.

All the directors looked at each other in blank dismay.

Ordinary people may just know that the shooting cycle of sci-fi movies is very long, but only directors like them really understand how cumbersome it is to shoot sci-fi movies, especially mecha movies.

After all, the whole movie is often shot without the real thing.This is a special test of the acting skills of the actors. They must fight the "invisible most powerful enemy" in the absence of real objects and emptiness.In such a scene, the director must have the strongest judgment and control in order to guide the actors to fight accurately, otherwise there is no way to do it later.

Second, is the special effects.

Mecha special effects, just the determination of the early model, is quite cumbersome and complicated. Basically, many movies have to go through one or two months of meetings, group discussions, and countless drafts, modeling revisions, etc.... Finalize the final shape of the mecha.

Therefore, in the eyes of many Hollywood directors, Lin Xuan's current filming should have just begun.

But what the heck!
Are you finished?

"If it's not me dreaming, then Lin Xuan is dreaming."

"Shooting a mecha film in two months? Does his family have mechs?"

"Made, I shot the movie at about the same time as him, and it's even an action movie that is much simpler than science fiction. I just set up the scene and didn't take a few shots, so he finished it?"

"Perfunctory, absolutely perfunctory."

"It's estimated that he didn't take it seriously at all."

"I have already said that he doesn't understand mecha movies, and he may not even know what science fiction movies are."

"That's right, this also proves that his movie is nonsense."

There was strong suspicion in everyone's eyes.

These big Hollywood directors all thought that Lin Xuan was just messing around.

Otherwise it is absolutely impossible!
But it also made the last worry in their hearts completely disappear.

When Lin Xuan first filmed "Transformers", some people thought that he might make some achievements in mecha science fiction. After all, the film invested [-] million US dollars, and invited big names such as Adonis and Anthony.And movies are something that no one can be sure of. What if Lin Xuan gets lucky and succeeds?
But now, I saw that Lin Xuan had finished in two months.

Hollywood directors have nothing but ridicule in their hearts.

Damn, if such a movie can succeed, they commit suicide en masse.

……

Only in China.

Everyone is happy.

"Hahaha, brother Xuan is awesome."

"Brother Xuan is still so short?"

"I've never seen Lin Xuan grow up before."

"Those Europeans and Americans have never seen the world. Lin Xuan is so fast, accurate, and ruthless in everything, okay? Do you believe that if you push him, he can make a movie impromptu?"

"Hey, regardless of the quality of Brother Xuan's first Hollywood movie, the speed must be number one anyway. It can be regarded as occupying the first place among Hollywood movies."

"Hahaha."

……

The whole network is boiling.

no way.

So shocking.

No one has ever seen a mecha sci-fi movie be done so quickly.

So some Chinese netizens are right, Lin Xuan has set the record for the fastest sci-fi movie in Hollywood.

Of course, this record is not very glorious.

In this way, everyone's expectations for this movie are even lower.

"Bad movies, the proper visual sense of bad movies."

"This may be the first Hollywood film that will be branded as bad before it's even released."

"Lin Xuan: I spent [-] million U.S. dollars, please save face."

"1.9 million US dollars, [-] million film salary, and the remaining [-] million production, that's right."

"It seems that Lin Xuan really broke the can."

"Let me just say, even so many big Hollywood directors can't handle the sci-fi mecha. How can Lin Xuan, a Chinese person, handle it?"

"Hurry up to release, hurry to the street, and then hurry back and sing."

"..."

Langman, who was still shooting a blockbuster fantasy movie at a certain shooting location, watched the news on the Internet.

The Hollywood director rubbed his eyes vigorously for a long time before he was sure that he was right.

"Faffa...ke, is he finished?"

Even Langman couldn't help cursing.

special!
What are you doing?
The filming of his film has already entered the later stage, and Lin Xuan just started filming.As a result, his movie hadn't finished yet, but Lin Xuan actually finished it before him?

Did you eat dynamite?
Staring at the news for a long time, Langman suddenly said: "I know! Lin Xuan must want to avoid me. He feels the strong pressure I put on him. He doesn't want to be crushed by me. He doesn't want to be in Huaxia, especially It was embarrassing in front of fans all over the world, so he purposely finished filming the film in such a short period of time. Anyway, for him, this sci-fi mecha film called "Transformers" was destined to hit the market, so he accelerated the speed of filming.

snort!
But want to avoid me?
dream!

I'm afraid Lin Xuan never dreamed that the filming of my movie will be finished soon.so……"

He looked at the assistant next to him, and said in a deep voice: "Send everyone a message to speed up the progress of the shooting from now on, and try to finish it within a week!"

Langman's eyes were full of murderous intent.

Lin Xuan!

Are you afraid now?

It's useless!
……

……

At Second World Films.

After Anthony's dubbing ended, Lin Xuan officially started the post-production of "Transformers".

After filming is finished, the next step is post-production.

Come to the late team.

Lin Xuan directly pulled the staff of the editing team aside: "Leave the editing work to me."

"???"

"!!!"

Everyone was stunned, their boss still knows how to edit?

Know scripts, film shooting, music production, film production, special effects... Now you even know editing?

Too versatile, right?
The key is to look at this posture, Lin Xuan doesn't seem to understand it in general, because he asked everyone to directly hand over all the editing work to him alone.

An employee swallowed: "Boss Lin, edit carefully."

Lin Xuan nodded: "Don't worry."

But he secretly said in his heart: It is precisely because of caution that he dare not hand over the editing work to others, so he can only do it himself.Otherwise, others may edit "Transformers" beyond recognition.

Soon, he was alone in the editing room and didn't let anyone near him.

Dub.

soundtrack.

cropped.

Fusion.

Huge material, let him compress, select, and delete bit by bit.

The next day, Lin Xuan walked out of the editing room.

When the editing department manager saw him, he rushed up to meet him: "Boss, do you need our help?"

From the manager's point of view, maybe Lin Xuan came to ask them for help.After all, it is too much work to edit a movie by myself.Not to mention anything else, just looking at the huge video library on the computer, it is estimated that many people will go crazy.

As for the captured video materials, which ones are needed and which ones are not, many times have to go through countless meetings and discussions or even small-scale investigations to determine.

Editing is the real shocking step by step, and there can be no mistakes.

why?
Because apart from the script, the most important thing about a movie is post-editing.For one script, the quality of ten directors of the same level will not vary greatly, but the post-editing may be very different.

Even two teams may cut two movies with very different plots. After all, everyone has different understandings of movies and different cutting styles.Especially in many cases, simple post-cutting may make the plot completely opposite. This can be seen from many unscrupulous variety shows. Many times this is clearly the case when recording, but after deliberate editing later, Immediately the taste changed.

Generally speaking, it is not uncommon for a movie to be edited for a month or two.

however.

The manager of the editing department just finished speaking.

Lin Xuan smiled and said, "No need, because the movie has already been edited."

"puff!"

The editing department manager spit out a mouthful of water, and then quickly apologized: "Sau Rui, Sao Rui."

Lin Xuan didn't blame it, after all, he had seen too much of this kind of situation.

Regardless of demeanor, the manager wiped off the drool with his sleeve, and then said dully: "Mr. Lin, you mean that the editing of "Transformers" is ready?"

Lin Xuan nodded: "Yes."

Manager: "The whole movie?"

Lin Xuan said: "That's right."

Manager: "Including dubbing, music...all the processes?"

Lin Xuan said with a smile: "Of course, when I say the editing is done, it means that the version has been finalized. Now it is the final version of "Transformers", and there is no need to make any changes."

"..."

The manager took a deep breath and remained silent for a while.

Within minutes, word spread.

Everyone flocked.

Guan Yuman.

Anthony.

Adonis.

Cyrillic.

Barron.

Everyone who could come came, and everyone surrounded Lin Xuan, exclaiming one after another.

Guan Yuman was better, after all, she knew Lin Xuan's details, and she had created invincible speed when editing "The God of Medicine".

The others, on the other hand, were all shocked.

Anthony was stunned and said, "Is it done?"

Adonis: "Isn't it?"

Cyril: "It's only one day."

They knew very well that the videos shot by "Transformers" were at least [-] hours long, and it would take more than ten days to edit them into a two- to three-hour movie.

But you, Lin Xuan, can get it done in one day?
Even if you just watch the video once, it won't be more than a day without eating or drinking.

Not to mention cumbersome editing.

Lin Xuan smiled and did not explain.

Because there is really no way to explain this matter. Others edited movies every step of the way. They analyzed the content of each frame and compared several shots repeatedly before finally picking the right one.But he only needs to find the content he needs and integrate them, which is not difficult at all.

When everyone saw Lin Xuan's smile, they became even more anxious.

It's all this time, what are you still selling?

Lin Xuan looked around and found that basically all the main crew members had come. He coughed a few times and said, "Well, I know everyone doesn't trust me."

Anthony said awkwardly: "It's not that I don't trust you, but I think your speed is too fast."

Although the film shooting speed was fast before, it was understandable.But now Lin Xuan's editing speed is so fast that they can't understand it.How do you not worry?

"Could it be that after watching the original video, Mr. Lin felt that it was too bad, so it was as broken as the media speculated? Didn't edit it properly at all?"

Many people have such thoughts in their hearts.

But it felt impossible.

After all, everyone knows that in the past two months of filming, Lin Xuan has shown them a shocking ability to direct and attaches great importance to "Transformers". Such a performance cannot be broken.

Just when everyone was thinking wildly.

Lin Xuan continued: "Since everyone is here, it just so happens that the movie needs to go through the company's internal screening review after editing. So Mr. Huang, please arrange a screening room right away. Let's go and see the finished product of "Transformers". You know if I edited carefully."

Everyone's eyes lit up.

"Watch it now?"

"really?"

"so excited."

"Quick, go!"

Everyone is excited.

Especially Adonis, the leading actor, his heart began to beat violently.

Since he joined the film crew, for more than two months, he has completely become Lin Xuan's tool man, shooting one scene after another mechanized.Since the shooting of the film is not arranged according to the actual playing time, it is shot in segments according to the venue.It's possible that the first shot you take may appear at the last second.And it is possible that the last shot you shoot will be broadcast in the first second.

Coupled with the huge proportion of film special effects production, many times everyone is acting against the air.

So even if he has read the script, he still has no idea what the finished product of the movie will look like, so he can only imagine it out of thin air.Originally, he had a certain expectation for this movie, otherwise he would not agree to Lin Xuan to play the leading role.But seeing Lin Xuan finished the editing so quickly at this moment, I was at a loss again.

At this moment, when Lin Xuan said that they could see the finished product, why didn't he feel uneasy?
Anthony looked at Adonis' expression and smiled, "Are you worried?"

Adonis didn't deny it: "Yes."

Anthony said, "I'm worried too."

Everyone is worried.

It is not clear whether Lin Xuan will surprise or frighten them next.

No matter how good the script is, you have to watch the finished product.

If the finished product is not good, everything is useless.

Everyone is a well-known Hollywood movie star or an executive who has been in the industry for many years. They know that although the quality of the script directly affects the quality of the final movie, the quality of the movie depends on the ability of the director.

same script.

A good director can make a classic.

But a bad director can only make a piece of shit.

"go!"

Soon, Huang Ming came over and told Lin Xuan that the screening room had been arranged.

With a wave of his hand, Lin Xuan took the lead to walk towards the screening hall.

The crowd followed behind him without saying a word.

There is excitement.

There is apprehension.

There are expectations.

There is uneasiness.

Countless thoughts flashed through everyone's mind.

soon.

Everyone came to a screening hall that could only accommodate more than [-] people.Those who can enter are the core members of the crew and company executives, and other ordinary employees are not qualified to watch it for the time being.

Everyone do well.

There was silence, only the sound of heavy breathing.

"let's start."

Seeing that everyone was ready, Lin Xuan nodded towards an employee who was controlling the screening.

"Ok."

The employee agreed.

next second.

Swish!
The auditorium became dark, the classic Earth LOGO of the second world appeared on the screen, and the movie started...

……

……

Outside the auditorium.

The employees of the Second World Film Company have all gathered here. After more than three months of running-in, these employees have gradually integrated into the culture of the Second World, and regard themselves as the official employees of the Second World.

At this moment, everyone is talking about it.

"I heard that Mr. Lin finished editing "Transformers" in one day?"

"Yes, Mr. Huang and the others were still discussing this just now."

"Now they're watching it as a movie."

"How is the finished film?"

"I don't know, except Mr. Lin, no one has watched it. But the mecha movie... I still don't like it."

"I don't like it either. No one can make a good mecha film."

"The key point is that Mr. Lin's shooting time is too short, and the editing is even faster. How can we make a good movie?"

"Shh, don't say Mr. Lin is bad. We just need to get paid."

"That's true. I have to say that the welfare of the Second World is really good. It's much better than that of Tailun Company."

"The key point is that although we have been very tired and bitter in the past few months, our salary and bonus are almost five times more than usual! I worked for two months and was worth a year's salary. It's so cool."

"So don't close down the company, I can't bear it."

"..."

These employees were even more worried than Dunis and the others. After all, Lin Xuan had already invested hundreds of millions in this movie. If the movie didn't work, they would probably face the embarrassing situation of the company going bankrupt.

So everyone is praying, hoping that the quality of "Transformers" will be better, no matter how bad it is, it must be on the passing line, so that Lin Xuan, a generous Huaxia boss, will not disband the company.

One hour.

two hours.

In the tormented waiting of everyone, nearly three hours passed.

Just when everyone couldn't bear it anymore.

suddenly.

Swish!
The closed door of the auditorium was opened.

The hearts of the employees outside jumped.

"The screening is over!"

"Look at their expressions."

"Happy or disappointed?"

"???What's going on here?"

"What's the situation with them?"

"..."

Everyone quickly craned their necks to look into the auditorium, and saw a person walking out of it.

Lin Xuan was still at the front, followed by Anthony, Adonis, Guan Yuman, Cyril... and others.However, except for Lin Xuan who still had a faint smile on his face, everyone else had strange expressions on their faces. There was no joy, no smile, but no disappointment, no frustration. Everyone left the screening room with almost no expression.

what happened?

Everyone looked at each other.

After Lin Xuan and the others walked away and entered the meeting room again.

A company executive who had entered the movie hall remained behind. This person was the former director of Tyronn Company and is now the director of the production department of Second World Film Company, so the employees are familiar with him.

moment.

Everyone surrounded them.

"Mr. Nishizawa, how was the movie?"

"Why is everyone so expressionless?"

"Could it be a pounce?"

"Oh God, is my company going out of business again?"

"What should I do? I don't want to go."

Hearing the noisy discussions all around, Caesar seemed to have just come back to his senses. His eyes showed bewilderment, shock, and suspicion. In an instant, almost all complicated expressions flashed in his eyes. He took a deep breath , looking at everyone: "Everyone, I think we may have to post in the future, because we have an amazing boss."

Ok?
Are we going to send it?
what's the situation?
We are asking if the movie is good or not, what does Nishizawa mean by that?
Everyone was stunned.

Some people are still at a loss.

But someone seemed to have thought of something, with a deep surprise on his face.

……

the other side.

Lin Xuan and everyone returned to the conference room.

He smiled and looked at everyone, but still didn't speak.

Everyone is like puppets doing it one by one.

at last.

After a long time, Anthony let out a long breath: "I regret it so much."

Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows: "What do you regret?"

Anthony said: "I really regret that when "Transformers" sent out investment invitations around the world, I didn't invest. I was still thinking about whether to take a gamble. After all, I was already very optimistic about the script and thought it would not Poor. But in the end I still didn’t dare to take the risk, and it’s too late to say anything now.”

He looked annoyed.

If he was able to invest in the first place.

If he dares.

that would be nice.

But now, the movies have all been produced, and investment has long been impossible.

Adonis opened his mouth, but made no sound for a while.

In the end, the young Hollywood superstar stared at Lin Xuan, and said in a shy voice, "Um... the movie we watched just now, was it really made by us?"

Lin Xuan smiled: "It's absolutely true."

Adonis said: "But..."

His eyes became a little dazed again, and there was still a deep shock in his heart.He couldn't imagine that the movie he saw just now was actually filmed by them in the past two months.

The heart that he had been hanging on before had already fallen at this moment.

His whole mind was surrounded by shock.

How did a movie like that do it?
In the conference room, many people finally came to their senses.

They were expressionless just now because the shock they received was so strong that they barely reacted.

There was a noise.

"This is the real mech film, right?"

"I'm still a little confused."

"Inconceivable."

"It turns out that mecha movies can be shot like this?"

"God, it's so shocking."

"I never thought that a sci-fi mech could do this."

"Wrong, every other Hollywood director is wrong."

"..."

But more people still only showed deep shock on their faces, unable to escape from the scene of the movie just now for a long time.

Cyril swallowed: "When the movie is released, I can't imagine what will happen."

Barron: "What happens at the box office?"

Anthony shook his head: "The box office is hard to say for now."

This is not a perfunctory remark, because no one can judge the box office trend of any movie before it is released.Only after it is actually released can we know whether it can be liked by the public.

Paused.

Anthony continued: "But what I can be sure of is that this mecha movie is definitely ahead of all the previous mecha movies in Hollywood. It is not comparable to the previous mecha movies. It is no exaggeration to say that it is very It may start the era of mech science fiction movies after its release, subvert everyone's original impression of mecha science fiction, and even occupy an important place in the field of science fiction movies. Now I finally understand, Mr. Lin, why you insist on shooting mechs Movie, why invest [-] million yuan to shoot it, it turns out that the mech movie is no worse than any science fiction movie."

It is conceivable that these words come out of the mouth of a big guy like Anthony.

But everyone didn't feel that something was wrong, but nodded one after another.

"Yes."

"Indeed it is."

"I'm kind of looking forward to its release."

"The same expectation."

Seeing everyone's expressions, Lin Xuan showed a bright smile.

That's it!

Everything is ready.

Next, then just wait for "Transformers" to be officially released.
