The Wind of China Entertainment 2005

Chapter 480 Returning to Beijing
By the time the wrap party ended, it was already late at night.

"Shh!"

Inside the hotel, the bathroom door slowly opened.

Liu Shishi hugged her boyfriend's neck, wrapped her legs around his waist, and hung firmly on his chest like a koala.

Lu Yuan held her hips, used his toes to push aside the scattered clothes on the floor, and walked slowly towards the bed.

"Snapped!"

"Let go, get off."

Lu Yuan patted her butt, which had several slap marks left on it.

Liu Shishi was bumped into badly in the bathroom and was still a little confused at the moment. Her eyes were blurred, her pink lips slightly parted, and her flushed little face was pressed tightly against his shoulder. She hummed weakly twice and refused to move.

"Come down quickly."

"No."

"Snapped!"

"No~"

Lu Yuan had no choice but to hold her and fall directly onto the bed.

"Ouch! You're pressing on my hair!" Miss Liu yelled and started to bite his shoulder.

He moved his arm without any pain.

"It's pressed again."

"Take your hands, legs and mouth away."

"not good."

After struggling for a while and getting nothing back, I gave up.

Lu Yuan lay flat on his back while Liu Shishi continued to lie clinging to him.

Liu Haha folded her hands on his chest, rested her chin on the back of her hands, and stared at the strawberry marks on her boyfriend's neck with her watery eyes.

"Brother~"

"Ok?"

"You were awesome today."

Lu Yuan was in sage mode. Hearing this, he withdrew his gaze from the ceiling, glared at her unhappily, and said, "I always do this."

"That's not the case. It was only a little while last time. I just felt it... um."

Lu Yuan pinched her lips and muted the microphone manually.

"That was a special case. Besides, who do you think I am? I have been working on the set for several nights in a row. Even if I were a cow, I would not be able to plow the fields."

"Oh." Liu Shishi puffed up his cheeks.

Lu Yuan pinched the soft flesh on her waist and asked, "Are you going to go back to the capital with me tomorrow, or?"

"Of course we'll go back to Beijing together."

"I remember that the filming of Xuan-Yuan Sword was scheduled to start in the next two days. Why was it postponed?"

Lu Yuan was puzzled. According to the plan, after the filming of "Super Time and Space" was completed, Tangren would officially start filming, and Liu Shishi would join the crew.

"The company said the start of production will be postponed to the end of September."

"what reason?"

"Old K had previously found an actress to play Cher, but now he is not satisfied. He has found a new candidate and is in the process of contacting her and preparing to sign her to the company."

"Who?"

Liu Shishi took out his cell phone and took out a photo.

"That's her, your junior sister. She was just admitted to Beijing Film Academy this year. When she took the art exam last year, she was rated as the most beautiful candidate by netizens."

Lu Yuan was very surprised because there hadn't been any decent newcomers emerging in Beijing Film Academy in the past two years, let alone campus beauties.

It may also be because he doesn't pay much attention to this aspect.

The photo on the phone shows a tall girl.

She was wearing a black fur collar coat, a high ponytail, a khaki headband, with three-dimensional facial features, deep eyebrows and eyes, and a mole under her right eye, giving her the look of a mixed-race beauty.

He commented: "She looks OK, with a bit of exotic charm."

"He seems to be Uyghur." Liu Shishi stared at him and narrowed her eyes.

Lu Yuan simply nodded and paid no more attention.

There are so many beautiful women in the entertainment industry, and appearance is not the only criterion for whether one can become famous.

"Brother, do you want the studio to sign her in advance?"

"Hey!"

He pinched her chin and teased, "You poached people from your own company. Cai Yinong will probably be furious when she hears this."

Liu Shishi bit his finger gently and said, "This is what I think. The studio only has two male actors, Zhu Yilong and Guo Jingfei, and there are more male actors than female actors. I think she is good and has great potential."

"Forget it." Lu Yuan put his arm around her waist, turned sideways, pulled her close to him, and put his thighs on her.

"why?"

Liu Shishi's small body was crumpled into a ball.

Lu Yuan doesn't like those freshmen who are in a hurry to sign contracts with companies and start filming movies right after they enter college. Could it be that God has given them this fortune, the new generation of Zhou Xun?
And since he was noticed by Cai Yinong, he is most likely suitable for the idol route, and his acting ability will not be that outstanding.

Yuanfang Studio prefers to sign capable or talented actors.

He said lightly: "I hope you will be the first female artist signed by the studio."

Liu Shishi smiled sweetly. Even though she knew the guy was probably trying to coax her, she still fell for it.

She pursed her lips and kissed him affectionately, bringing out a hint of crystal clearness, and said, "I'm serious. The studio is signing a female artist, not the Naza you just mentioned."

"Who?"

"Can you please sign Xinyou?"

"Liu Xinyou?"

"Yeah." Liu Shishi nuzzled into his arms, blew air on his chin, and said, "Xinyou and the agency have completely fallen out, and she plans to pay a sum of money to terminate the contract. She doesn't want to quit the entertainment industry, and wants to find a reliable team."

"Did you give someone a guarantee again?"

"No." Liu Shishi refused to admit it.

She would never say that she had said in front of Liu Xinyu that she had the final say at home.

"Let me think about it." Lu Yuan began to feel sleepy, yawned and squinted his eyes.

Liu Shishi smiled, not at all sleepy. He reached down with one hand and stretched his neck to hold his earlobe.

"Good brother~"

When the crew finished filming, the happiest people were the actors, photographers, lighting and other production workers.

But for the director, this is just the beginning.

Wrapping up simply means that the filming work is completed.

At this point, the film is only a rough semi-finished product. Before it can be released, it still needs to go through a series of processes including post-production, film review, and film distribution.

Take post-production for example.

It covers multiple aspects such as editing, sound effects, special effects, etc.

Even if you get through post-production successfully and finish the initial sample, delivering it for review is still a rather tedious process.

Fortunately, the subject matter of "Time Raiders" is conservative and insensitive.

As Lu Yuan's first film, which he directed and acted in, he did not intend to explore the philosophy of human nature, so the pressure to pass the review was relatively small.

Therefore, what determines the final release date of this film is mainly the speed of post-production.

Lu Yuan initially planned that "Out of Time" would be released on Valentine's Day next year, which is February 2012, 2.

Beijing, distant studio.

After returning from Shanghai, Lu Yuan immediately went to the studio with Wen Muye and the hired editor to start rough cutting of the film.

The editing process is never done in one go; it requires constant revisions and adjustments.

Most of the time, he stood quietly on the sidelines, occasionally pointing out the best shots and offering his own thoughts and opinions.

Make sure the story direction and style of the edited film remain unchanged.

"call."

"Film and TV post-production is such a daunting job."

Lu Yuan rubbed his sore eyes.

Du Yuan held up the silver-white frame and said with a smile, "This is your first time, you'll get used to it."

Du Yuan, a famous editor in China, graduated from Beijing Film Academy and is known as the "Golden Scissors". She has edited films such as "Red Sorghum", "Raise the Red Lantern", "Crazy Stone", "Crazy Racing", and "No Man's Land".

This time Lu Yuan invited them over. "Teacher Du, do you want to reconsider this shot?" Wen Muye looked at the material library, his face full of confusion.

He is called the executive director in the crew, but in reality he is just a brick, moved wherever the need arises. In addition, he has a solid foundation and good talent, and he grows very fast. By the end of the filming, he was basically doing the work of a director.

So when he saw that the footage he had worked so hard to save was discarded, he felt particularly upset.

"Kino, I understand your thoughts."

Du Yuan smiled and consoled him: "It's usually like this for first-time directors. During the filming, I'm unsure and will shoot a lot of footage. I'm reluctant to give it up, but when it comes to editing, you have to trust my professional ability."

"But…"

Wen Muye wanted to say more, but Lu Yuan interrupted him and said, "Every profession has its own expertise. We can discuss any questions after the preliminary editing results come out."

A movie is like a dish. The director and members of each department pick out the best ingredients (materials), and the editor is responsible for cooking the dish well.

Editing is a highly artistic job that requires a certain level of aesthetic and creative ability. A good editor has the power to turn decay into magic.

Lu Yuan always insists on one thing: leave professional matters to professionals.

Wen Muye scratched his neck and agreed, "Okay."

After staying there for a while, Lu Yuan felt bored. He looked at the screen and felt uncomfortable all over.

"You guys continue, I'm going to go out and take a breath."

"Okay." Wen Muye replied.

As for Du Yuan, she had already entered her own world.

……

The first day of editing was not completed until around four in the afternoon, and Lu Yuan drove back to the community.

When I reached the corridor entrance, I found that the door of my sister's house was ajar, and the sound of my little nephew crying could be heard faintly from inside the house.

He walked away without any hesitation.

But when he thought about what the old woman had told him about her brother-in-law on WeChat a few days ago, he turned back.

Besides, no matter what, he is your own nephew after all, so it would be good to help pass the stick to him when he is being beaten.

He opened the door and put on his slippers. The golden-haired Doudou jumped over immediately, circled around him, and hummed.

Lu Yuan rubbed its head twice and didn't take it seriously.

In the living room, Zhou Yaoyao was lying on the table with a homework book spread out in front of her. Her rough eyebrows were furrowed and she occasionally bit the pen cap.

When she saw her uncle coming in, she opened her little mouth, bared her teeth, and smiled.

Lu Yuan asked: "Are you doing your homework?"

"Ah."

“Is it difficult?”

"It's not difficult." She raised her chin confidently.

Lu Yuan thought that after not seeing him for a few months, he had made great progress.

So I walked over and took a look at her homework, Chinese.

Question 1: Make a sentence using "locust after locust".

Student Zhou Yaoyao answered: It’s time to get off work, and dads are coming home one after another.

Question 2: Make a sentence using "what's more".

Student Zhou Yaoyao answered: A train passed by, and what more what more what more what more what more.

Lu Yuan was stunned, and he suppressed the praise that was about to come out of his mouth. He reached out and patted her head: "You are really a little genius!"

"Hehe, thank you uncle." Zhou Yaoyao's eyes curved and she became even happier.

"What happened to your brother?"

"He took advantage of Doudou's open mouth when he was sleeping and pulled its tongue, refusing to let go. Doudou screamed and started crying."

Lu Yuan: "."

No wonder the golden retriever has been pestering him and complaining ever since he came in.

"Uncle, when will you take me to the aquarium?"

"talk about it later."

Lu Yuan said perfunctorily and followed the voice to find Zhou Qi.

The little brat was standing straight in front of the bedroom window, his hands on both sides of his trouser legs, crying.

As if noticing Lu Yuan, he said in a whisper, "Uncle, come here quickly."

Lu Yuan just stepped one foot into the bedroom and then withdrew it.

Lu Jia faced the window, holding a clothes hanger, waving it in the air, and shouted, "It's no use yelling at him!"

"stand at attention!"

Zhou Qi was startled and subconsciously straightened his slightly bent legs.

"is it wrong?"

"I was wrong. I won't do it again."

Lu Jia just turned around and asked unkindly, "What are you doing standing there?"

"Um, I'm looking for my brother-in-law." He thought quickly and made up an excuse.

"study!"

"Okay, you continue."

Lu Yuan turned and left, ignoring Zhou Qi's pleading eyes.

When I arrived at Zhou Mingyuan's study, I saw him wearing headphones and clicking randomly with the mouse.

Lu Yuan walked straight behind him, glanced at the computer screen, and took off his headphones while playing games.

"You still have the mind to play. Your son has been bullied so badly, he looks so pitiful, but you don't even go to help him."

"What help."

Zhou Mingyuan glanced at him and said, "Would you like to help stand together as punishment?"

Lu Yuan: "."

"I'm just wondering, why are you so afraid of my sister? How do you say henpecked in Sichuan dialect?"

"I remember now, you henpecked man."

Zhou Mingyuan leaned back in his chair: "I call this respect. We treat each other with respect. There is no such thing as fear or non-fear between husband and wife. On the contrary, you are the one who is really afraid."

"How can I be the same as you? She is my sister. Besides, in front of Shishi, I have the final say."

Zhou Mingyuan laughed: "I have the final say on major family matters. Your sister never interrupts me, so I naturally have to give in to her on minor matters."

"Okay, I'm too lazy to argue with you. What should I play?" Lu Yuan pulled a chair and sat down.

"League of Legends, the Chinese server will be open for testing in two days."

Lu Yuan looked at the screen, which looked a bit like Dota, and asked, "How is the progress of Dou Zhan Shen?"

"It's still early. We have to wait at least two years."

Tencent has 8 self-developed game studios.

They are Linlangtianshang, Tianmeiyiyou, Wolong, Quantum, Speed ​​of Light, Magic Cube, Northern Lights, and Colorful Stones.

Zhou Mingyuan left The9 and joined Tencent with his team.

It’s just that the resource allocation and competition among the studios were too fierce, so it was merged into Quantum Studio last year.

He asked casually: "I heard from my sister that you want to leave Tencent?"

"Why does she tell you everything?"

Zhou Mingyuan was stunned for a moment, then waved his hands and said, "No, don't listen to her. I'm just bragging. Starting a business is very risky. I have a family. If I lose money, your sister still has two children. Will they have to sleep on the street with me?"

Lu Yuan looked at his brother-in-law and confirmed that he was lying: "That's not the case. I have no problem supporting the three of them."

Zhou Mingyuan: "."

Since he didn't say anything, Lu Yuan didn't ask any more questions. If he really needed money, he wouldn't mind making a small investment.

I played two rounds of League of Legends with him. The game was okay, but the mouse and keyboard didn’t work well.

"I have to pee urgently. I'll go back first. I'll change the mouse tomorrow."

"Hey."

Zhou Mingyuan sneered and tried to persuade him to stay. There were not many opportunities to abuse the brother-in-law of a big star.

"Play two more games with me, it will be time for dinner soon."

"I'm busy. I forgot to tell you. Please give me two beta test numbers and I'll send them to Shishi."

"also."
