Chapter 878

After Alice came back to talk to Meng Huo about the specific situation, Meng Huo completely relaxed, and then came to Yanjing.

Towards June, the production of "the magician at the beginning of the century" has entered the final stage, and will be completed in the next half a month. Now, Meng Huo goes to Yanjing to check the situation of the film, but also to deal with the plan of film promotion and release.

On the afternoon of his first visit, Meng Huo watched the uncut version of the magician at the beginning of the century at the audition of DreamWorks. In fact, the main part of the film has been completed, but it has not been cut, edited or partially processed.

All the three directors, without exception, accompanied Meng Huo to watch the audition.

Tomato and Mach are also here. Besides them, the core employees of DreamWorks are also present, including those in charge of cutting and editing. This is Meng Huo's most important inspection before the film is finished, and he will decide the final structure of the magician at the beginning of the century.

The screening lasted for two hours, and no one spoke in the whole process. Meng Huo took a note and read it. Every time he wrote, people around him were nervous. After the audition, the lights in the audition hall were turned on, and many people were squinted by the exciting lights, but they didn't care about this, and all the eyes turned to Meng Huo.

"Mr. He Xi, you don't need to revise it in general?" Tomato asked nervously. Although Meng Huo is here to give advice on the following process, he has to worry about whether there is a problem with the film itself. If there is a problem, it is likely to come back.

"Before I came, didn't you have a lot of confidence?" Meng Huo asked with a smile.

Tomato's face is reddish. He is really confident. The whole DreamWorks is satisfied with the finished film, but he is confident. Now Meng Huo is sitting down among them, they will worry about making mistakes.

"Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case..." tomato said: "if the teacher you want to push over again, we don't have any way?"

Meng Huo shook his head. He looked at the three directors and said, "do you think it's just in case?"

"I don't think so." The directors shook their heads and answered one after another, "this achievement is already very good."“ I don't think it's necessary to remake it“ It's more graphic than I expected at the beginning. "

The directors are more confident than tomato, who is responsible for supervising the quality of the pictures. This may be a fan of the audience, because tomato, who is responsible for directing and reviewing the pictures of the magician at the beginning of the century, is less confident.

Meng Huo laughingly looked at tomato: "do you hear... They all said so, the answer is not very obvious?" Tomato's eyes suddenly brightened up: "teacher's meaning is that this movie doesn't need to be pushed over and over again?"

"Of course." Meng Huo nodded: "your work with Wenlin is over."

He turned his attention to Xi Wenlin. After hearing this sentence, Xi Wenlin was also very happy. The audition of "the magician at the beginning of the century" was recognized, which means that the work of him and tomato has been completed, and the rest is the modification of the director and other technicians.

"Great!" Tomato made a celebration, and then clapped hands with Xi Wenlin: "Wenlin, we can go home and have a rest! Mr. He Xi, this time we have to pay for it. "

Meng Huo nodded. The two assistants' success in finishing the magician at the beginning of the century on time is inevitable. Of course, he will not treat them badly.

"After the movie is shown, the payment will be paid to you." He stood up with his notes and said to the people around him, "now let's have a meeting in another office and discuss the work in the future."

The staff of the audition room immediately stood up. They had already prepared a meeting room and just moved to it.

"Tomato teacher..." on the way, a director said to tomato and Xi Wenlin, "you don't have to leave in a hurry. The film will be released in another month. We hope you can continue to help during this period."

"This..." tomato and Xi Wenlin look at each other. In fact, they like this job very much, but they stay in Yanjing for many months, and even work overtime during holidays. As a result, they seldom go home. They want to go home and get together more than work.

"I think that's a good idea." Hearing their conversation, Meng Huo cut in: "your work is over, but there may be some places that need you in the back. If you are homesick, it doesn't matter. It doesn't take much time to work in the back. Just come here occasionally."

His words convinced tomato and Xi Wenlin, and the two assistants immediately nodded.

"But how did the teacher know we were homesick..." the two cartoonists were a little red, and wondered how Meng Huo knew their thoughts - but who didn't know their obvious thoughts? Let alone Meng Huo, who had been friends with them for several years, the employees of DreamWorks also knew their thoughts.Bai Yan joked with Meng Huo a few days ago that these two men are not manly - "compared with them, the two women in Tokyo are more enterprising."

Meng Huo deeply believes that the two female assistants from Tokyo who helped the animation of "dragon and tiger" are undoubtedly very competent assistants of Bai Yan. They have inherited the consistent style of Meng Huo's cartoon assistants. They work hard and conscientiously, and will not be distracted by their personal life.

In fact, these two assistants are the ones who have the least contact with Meng Huo, and their relationship with him is the most unfamiliar among all assistants. However, after several years of observation, Meng Huo's most reassuring assistants are just them.

One obvious feature is that Meng Huo does not interfere in the work of these two assistants and can rest assured that they will work independently for a long time without any sense of relaxation, which is exactly what others lack.

From time to time, several assistants of Jiayuan community have to work in Meng Huo's home. This is to facilitate Meng Huo's inspection work. It's not that he doesn't give them the chance to choose freely, but that he knows that if he lets go, the quality of comics will start to decline at most for half a year.

The life of these assistants is so comfortable that they even lose a lot of ambition.

"Huameng teacher is better..." Meng Huo thought. Among the comic assistants in Jiayuan community, Huameng had the most self-control. Wang yanmeng was too young and was in bad condition from time to time.

He is very strange. It seems that among cartoonists, it seems that all the self-made people are girls, including another person: Qin ya. Qin Ya seems to be very self-made, with a lot of thoughts and likes eating and playing. On the contrary, she will try to finish her work quickly and give herself more rest time.

But even so, her willfulness is based on ensuring the quality and completion of comics, so she should actually be the most self-control person.

There are too many powerful female cartoonists. Comparatively speaking, there seems to be no male cartoonists. However, Meng Huo thinks that there are only a few male cartoonists he is familiar with, and he can't draw a simple conclusion.

And at least these male cartoonists, although they can't be allowed to be free, under the timely supervision, their work is also quite excellent.

"I'll have a chance to find some more male assistants in the future..." Meng Huo thought that his side was a little weak. If he could find more powerful and more self-control male cartoonists, they might be able to arouse their competition.

But of course, the meeting of the magician at the beginning of the century is more important than that.

The meeting lasted from 4:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. and the dinner was only half an hour off. The rest of the time was spent on group discussion. Meng Huo didn't put his requirements on top of others. He put forward the standard, but he spent more time discussing with everyone about how to carry out post production.

Before the end of the meeting, Meng Huo was almost certain that he did not need to check the film again before the completion of the magician at the beginning of the century. As long as it is made according to the details they have established, "the magician at the beginning of the century" can become a very excellent work.

After the meeting ended and the staff left one after another, Meng Huo also had a small-scale discussion with several directors, and finally determined the release time and publicity mode of the magician at the beginning of the century.

Alice will be responsible for the promotion of the film - her momentum for "rebellious Lucius" has been unanimously recognized by the directors, and I believe she can do a good job in promoting "the magician at the beginning of the century".

However, in terms of the release details of the magician at the beginning of the century, the directors did not adopt the way Phoenix used to do. They are all well-known directors with old brands. They have their own ideas on the selection of the cinema line and the arrangement of the release, and they have deep contacts. Meng Huo finally respected their opinions.

This is not a bad thing. On the contrary, if DreamWorks can act independently as far as possible, it will be conducive to the division of business in the future, and the directors also need this activity to prove their position in Phoenix - at least not a puppet who is only responsible for making movies.

Meng Huo also agreed with them that after "the magician at the beginning of the century" was released, one director would be in charge of the next film, while the other two directors would join different animation departments like Bai Yan to try to make animation.

"I look forward to your successful transformation by next year..."

Meng Huo has deep expectations for several directors. If these directors finally prove their abilities, next year he will be able to let go of the action mode that has long been constrained by "making animation" and become a cartoonist again.

He doesn't believe that his own animation is the best. In fact, he doesn't believe that the previous animation is perfect. If the same animation is directed by a more powerful director, the quality of the animation can naturally surpass the original
