King of Rolls' China Entertainment Tour

Chapter 270 The shocking soundtrack of "Datang"

Yu Hao laughed and said: "Senior sister, please be careful, I will never let you down."

When they returned to their home after a long absence, they saw Gao Yuanyuan and others had prepared meals and were waiting for them.

Looking at Yu Hao, who had gone through many vicissitudes of life, Gao Yuanyuan couldn't help but feel distressed and said: "Senior brother, you have suffered during this period. You see, you have become a lot darker, and you have stayed up a lot of nights, right?"

Xu Qing joked at the side: "Senior Brother You, he hasn't been exposed to much wind and sun, but he has a lot of fun scolding people. Basically everyone on the crew has been scolded by him."

Gao Yuanyuan asked with a gossipy face: "Senior sister, tell us? I remember that senior brother used to have a good temper."

Yu Hao shrugged and said, "Is it my fault? Aren't they just working hard one by one? It's not beyond their capabilities."

Xu Qing held her forehead and said: "Junior brother, have you forgotten that most of the people you are looking for are actors in TV dramas and don't have many opportunities to star in movies. It would be great to have that."

Gao Yuanyuan nodded and said: "It's true, we mainland actors don't have many opportunities to star in movies, unlike Hong Kong and Taiwan actors who have so many opportunities."

Yu Hao complained ruthlessly: "Is that the reason? I don't think so. It's just that I was used to being lazy. I don't think I'm very capable, but I don't have much airs."

Xu Qing shrugged and said, "Isn't this normal? We didn't call it the entertainment industry before, it was called the literary and art circle, and not everyone had a chance. Now, most of the people who make it out are related."

Gao Yuanyuan said thoughtfully: "Senior sister, that seems to be the case. Senior sister, how did you get the opportunity to star in Director Yang's TV series?"

Xu Qing coughed and then said: "Well, I got in through some connections. Didn't the crew recruit people at that time? It just so happened that I wasn't too bad, so I was chosen."

Yu Hao complained mercilessly: "Yes, yes, you are good at acting. You are a teenager and you are still playing a boy and a girl."

Xu Qing's face couldn't help but blush, and then she spread her hands and said, "Anyway, I acted. Aren't some people handsome since they were young? Why don't they have the chance to appear in any film and television dramas?"

Yu Hao chuckled and said: "I don't want to act. What's the future of being an actor? It depends on the director's face? It's better to be a director."

After staying at home for two days, everyone in the crew came back, and Yu Hao once again devoted himself to post-production.

In the editing room, Zhou Ying asked curiously: "Director Yu, in what order do you want to cut the film?"

Yu Hao looked at Sun Cheng and Zhang Jingchu, thought for a while and said: "According to the main story, the beginning is the first war scene, and then the two male protagonists meet, experience black sandstorms, bandits, and encounter caravans..."

After listening to this, Zhou Ying thought for a moment and said, "Then how should we add these war scenes? According to the memory method?"

Yu Hao nodded and said: "Yes, just follow the way of memories. The second scene is added to the chat between the two of them, and the third scene is added to the memories of the boss of the Hu caravan..."

After listening, Zhou Ying didn't speak. He closed his eyes and started thinking. After a long time, he opened his eyes and said:

"If you edit it this way, the drama will be much weaker. You need to add a suitable soundtrack to enhance the atmosphere, otherwise it will be too thin and appear top-heavy.

If we follow this approach, the soundtrack is very important. It not only has to enhance the atmosphere, but also adds the missing parts of the drama, which is a bit difficult to do. "

Yu Hao chuckled and said: "Don't panic, I already have a draft in mind and am ready to contact the band."

Zhang Jingchu smiled and said: "Sister Ying, have you forgotten that Director Yu's previous dramas all had their own soundtracks, and the soundtracks for each one are not simple."

Zhou Ying was stunned, then slapped his forehead and said with a smile: "It seems that I am worrying too much."

Sun Cheng raised his eyebrows and said: "Director Yu, our several war scenes were indeed shot well, but the number of people is quite different compared to the historical figures. Do we need to use special effects?"

Yu Hao chuckled and said: "Don't worry, after the rough cutting is completed, I will have people go to Tangren to do the special effects. There will be no mistakes."

Zhang Jingchu rubbed her chin and asked: "Director Yu, do you have any requirements for dubbing? Since it is impacting the Berlin Film Festival, German is indispensable."

Yu Hao nodded and said: "The dubbing of this film needs to be paid attention to. Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, and German must be worked on. We will do the Chinese ourselves. As for the other things, please contact the specialized people."

Sun Cheng raised his eyebrows and smiled: "In that case, you might as well add French and Italian. Anyway, I have nothing to do. If I have the chance, I can also attend the Cannes and Venice Film Festivals."

Yu Hao said in a dumbfounded voice: "How can anyone compete in several film festivals at the same time? Everyone requires that every shortlisted film be premiered at its own film festival."

Sun Cheng thought for a while and shook his head with a smile: "Not necessarily. I remember that several works won two of the three gold awards at the same time."

Yu Hao shook his head and said: "It's different. That was forty or fifty years ago. There are many reasons. It is basically impossible for this kind of thing to happen now. But you should prepare it. It will be easier to sell when you sell it."

Sun Cheng smiled bitterly and said: "You haven't even been selected yet, and you've already started thinking about selling the film. Calculating the time, it's November now, and it will probably be December after the post-production.

The Berlin Film Festival is held in mid-February every year, and the film has to be sent by mid-December at the latest, and we have to contact the operator. We didn't know about this before, and the time was very tight. "

Yu Hao thought for a while and said: "Let's do this, Sister Ying, you try to complete the first cut within a week, and then make a copy and give it to Tang Ren for special effects.

Uncle Sun, I will leave the film dubbing work to you. If you need expenses, you can directly contact Xu Qing and let her handle it. I will contact the people in the orchestra to do the film and television soundtrack.

Let's divide the work and work together to try to get the film for review by the end of the month. I'll contact Uncle Tong again and ask him to expedite the process and try to get the film for review within the stipulated time.

As for operations? Uncle Sun, do you have any connections? "

Sun Cheng shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I don't have it? I guess Lao Yu doesn't either. How could we dare to be so extravagant before? I heard all this later. However, I heard that Gong Li is the chairman of the judges this year. You can contact her, or Director Zhang can do it too.”

Yu Hao raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, let's finish the current thing first."

Seeing this situation, Zhou Ying couldn't help but said with laughter and tears: "Director Yu, do you trust me so much? Are you afraid that I can't cut it well for you?"

Yu Hao said solemnly: "Sister Ying, I know your abilities very well. I believe in my own strength. Besides, we have cooperated so many times, do you still know my urine properties?"

Zhou Ying said dumbfounded: "Yes, I have to lose my hair again. I hope the rough cut will not disappoint you."

Yu Hao chuckled and said, "Come on, I'm optimistic about you."

Afterwards, Yu Hao rushed to the film and television soundtrack office. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Dou Daxian listening to the CD player and drinking tea, leisurely.

Yu Hao walked up to him and said with a speechless expression: "It's time to work, we are almost busy as dogs, and you are still here listening to music." Dou Daxian chuckled and said: "Isn't this not much work? Are you alive?"

Yu Hao nodded and said, "Yes, it's still a big job. Have you read my notebook?"

Dou Daxian nodded and said: "I've seen it, but why don't we wait? Wait until the rough cutting results are out before we do this?"

Yu Hao shook his head and said: "Time waits for no one. I guess it will take a lot of time this time. Do you have any ideas about the soundtrack this time?"

Dou Daxian put away the smile on his face, nodded and said: "A bit, according to your book, I highly recommend two people - Tu Honggang and Han Lei,

I think the albums of the former in recent years, "Farewell My Concubine" and "Serving the Country with Loyalty," are very suitable for your album. As for the latter, if you need, you can contact him. Is there any music this time? "

Yu Hao closed his eyes and thought for a moment before nodding and saying: "The two songs by Tu Honggang are indeed good. As for the songs, there is one that is very suitable for Han Lei."

Dou Daxian watched Yu Hao write songs with excitement, and was looking forward to Yu Hao's next masterpiece this time.

Not long after, "Borrowing from Heaven for Another Five Hundred Years" appeared on the paper.

Dou Daxian couldn't help but hummed along, humming, and couldn't help but give Yu Hao a thumbs up and said: "Damn, you are still awesome, you are so talented in making movies, if you play music, a king will run away It won’t work.”

Yu Hao waved his hand and said: "That's not interesting at all. Is there any suitable band? I'm going to contact them and play something high-end."

Dou Daxian asked with a surprised look on his face: "Orchestra? What are you planning to do?"

Yu Hao smiled and said: "There are some war scenes. I have thought about them and thought about it. I can add a lot of poetry, but foreigners don't understand the poetry alone, so I plan to adapt it."

Dou Daxian thought for a moment and said, "It's possible, but it will take a lot of time. Let me contact you."

A few days later, Yu Hao and Dou Daxian came to a certain courtyard.

A white-haired old man opposite said with a smile: "Director Yu, I have long admired your name. I heard that you are planning to adapt poetry this time? What type of film and television drama is it?"

Yu Hao laughed and said: "This is a film about the Anxi Army. There are several scenes in it that are war scenes. I plan to use some poems to add a little flavor to these war scenes."

The old man asked with great interest: "It's interesting. Which ones are you planning to adapt?"

Yu Hao smiled and said: "In "Liangzhou Ci", the Yellow River is far up among the white clouds, and there is an isolated city on the Wanren Mountain. Why should the Qiang flute blame the willows? The spring breeze does not pass through Yumen Pass.

In "Army March", the long clouds and dark snow-capped mountains of Qinghai, the isolated city looking at Yumen Pass in the distance, gold wearing golden armor in a hundred battles, and Loulan will not return a poem until it is broken.

In "Crossing the Fortress", the Qin Dynasty bright moon and the Han Dynasty pass, the people who marched thousands of miles have not returned, but the flying generals of the dragon city are still there, and the poem "Don't teach Hu Ma to cross the Yin Mountains",

In "Song of the Fortress", the army accepts the letter of surrender and marches across thousands of miles with a single sword; the ancestor of the Han Dynasty praised Lou Jingce, but married the princess to a chanyu; the banners of the Han family were all over the Yinshan Mountains, and they did not send horses to return them; willing to get If I am long enough to serve my country, why should I be born in Yumen Pass?

There is another song: The whole city is full of white hair, but the Mo Dao will never be lost; after fifty years of independent resistance, how dare you forget the Tang Dynasty; a lonely city thousands of miles away, is full of white-haired soldiers; born as a member of the Han family, dead as a soldier of the Tang Dynasty,

My requirement is an authentic classical style, and the instruments should be classical bells and drums. I wonder if you can do that? "

The old man frowned, thought for a while and then asked: "How do you plan to adapt it? Do you plan to sing it in the form of a chorus? Or do you plan to make these artistic conceptions into a soundtrack and express it in this form?"

Yu Hao pondered for a while and then said: "I haven't thought about it yet. If it is convenient for you, can you make both. I want to try it and then talk about it."

The old man laughed and said: "It's interesting, I'll give it a try, but you have to personally participate in the details, otherwise what we adapt will be ours after all, and it will be done according to our understanding."

Yu Hao nodded and said, "Okay, take a look at our script. The film will be edited in about a week. If it's convenient for you, think about it first. After a week, we will officially start. What do you think?"

The old man smiled and said, "Okay, I'll take this job. I haven't encountered such a challenging task in a long time."

After going out, Yu Hao still asked with some worry: "Is that okay, old man?"

Dou Daxian rolled his eyes and said: "If this one can't do it, then there will be no one in the country who can do it. This man is considered a master of ancient musical instruments in China. He has been appointed as a professor in several conservatories.

Most people would never see him, so I felt a little incredible that he was so talkative this time. The last time he came here, he didn't look at me seriously. "

Yu Hao laughed and said: "That's your problem. If you can be as handsome as me, it's okay."

For the next period of time, Yu Hao was either running editing, calling special effects, or following a group of old men to figure out the soundtrack, and he was so busy that he never touched the ground.

Finally, on November 11th, all the problems with the soundtrack were finally solved.

As soon as it was done, Yu Hao couldn't wait to put the record in the CD player.

Several old men on the side joked: "Director Yu, how do you not believe in the results of our hard work?"

Yu Hao smiled and said: "Isn't this a bit impatient?"

Then, bursts of music came from the CD player.

Listening and listening, Yu Hao couldn't help but close his eyes, take the clips he shot in his mind, and listen together.

At this time, although his eyes were closed, the scenes of the shooting could not help but appear in his mind, and the vivid little people were dancing in his mind, performing scenes of stories.

After more than half an hour, the playback ended.

Dou Daxian on the side said with emotion: "Just listening to these soundtracks, the loyalty and bravery of the soldiers of the Anxi Army have already appeared in my mind. With the film, I think the result will not be too bad."

Just as he was about to speak, he saw several old men with tears streaming down their faces, but the smiles on their faces never stopped.

Seeing this situation, Yu Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

If even the producer is indifferent to the soundtrack of a movie, then there must be nothing to say.

After bidding farewell to several people, Yu Hao returned to the company with Dou Daxian, handed the soundtrack to Zhou Yinghou and said with a smile: "Sister Ying, give it a try and see the effect."

Zhou Ying said helplessly: "Hey guys, the soundtrack is done, the dubbing is done, and the special effects are completed. It's just my editing that's holding me back, right?"
