Chapter 157

~6 min read 1,147 words

After everyone greeted each other, they sat down one after another.

Zhang Yimou and the others looked at Qin Mu and then at Director Zha and the other.

Their hearts were full of confusion and surprise.

What on earth did Brother Qin do?

To make two international big directors so enthusiastic and polite to him.

You know, this is a treatment that even Zhang Yimou doesn't have!

And Director Zha and Nolan were no exception.

The two looked at each other quietly, feeling more and more that this Mr. Qin was quite mysterious.

Everyone present was actually a big name in the Chinese entertainment industry!

There are first-line hosts, first-line young actresses, and first-line directors!

And big directors who are quite popular internationally!

Mr. Qin actually has connections with all of them!

And...

The relationship and attitude are not the ordinary kind.

It seems they all have something to ask of Mr. Qin!

"Mr. Qin."

"Can I ask you a few questions about editing?"

Director Zha spoke first.

"Sure."

Qin Mu nodded.

Beside him, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.

Editing?

Isn't it photography?

When did Brother Qin do editing?

Was it that time on Running Man?

It was indeed edited extremely well.

But, how did it attract them?

That shouldn't be.

Variety shows are very popular in the country, but almost few foreigners watch them.

After all, everyone's sense of humor is different.

Forget it.

Let's listen more.

"The edited version of Justice League, I want to hear your thoughts, Mr. Qin."

"How were you able to keep the plot while reducing the duration so precisely?"

Director Zha's eyes were burning.

Once these words came out, everyone was stunned again.

Justice League?

What the hell?

When did Brother Qin get involved with Justice League?

No!

Suddenly, He Jiong thought of something and hurriedly whispered: "It's that edited version of Justice League that has been circulating very popularly recently!"

"It's this one!"

"Brother Qin edited it?"

Yiyi and Cheng Xiao couldn't help but shrink their beautiful eyes.

The edited version of Justice League is becoming more and more popular at the moment.

Many people have seen it.

Many people also want to know who edited the film.

However, after searching, there was no clue at all.

Only knowing it came from a small forum, posted by a netizen with the ID 'Mu'.

Mu?

Qin Mu!

My god!

It matches!

"It was actually Brother Qin."

"Didn't expect it, never expected it!"

"No!"

"Perhaps it should be said, it should be so."

Zhang Yimou and Director He looked at each other, both seeing the shock filled in the other's widened eyes!

They had both seen that edited version of Justice League.

They had even studied it.

Its editing technique is brilliant, the processing of switching screens is smooth, and the control of angles is precise!

It is definitely master-level.

Even they would find it difficult to complete it so perfectly!

Actually, regarding editing!

As directors, they know its importance better than anyone else.

Is a good movie enough as long as the actors' acting is on point and the script is smooth?

No! Absolutely impossible!

Photography, editing!

Neither can be missing!

In film history, there are many good movies that fell because of these two aspects!

The former, such as the domestic 'Purple Butterfly', and the foreign 'The Bourne Identity'.

The shots in these two movies are so shaky, and the screen switching is so fast.

Yes.

Occasional shaking is acceptable, and can even show the chaos, uncertainty, and danger of the film's content at that time, which is very common in most action movies.

But excessive shaking will affect the audience's mood and physiology.

Especially many 3D movies, which already give the audience a real touch, but end up shaking for half an hour.

Who can stand it?

They leave early one after another, then go out to give a low rating, and curse a few words online.

It's reasonable!

As for the latter, there is a representative figure sitting at the scene.

Director Zha!

Are the special effects of his Justice League not good?

Is the actors' acting bad?

Are the shots and screens bad?

Is the plot bad?

No!

Even if it's not first-line, it's definitely above the passing line.

Even, Director Zha's shots and screens can be said to be as beautiful as a painting!

But the box office and reputation have already flopped!

Why!

It's because the editing was too messy and chaotic!

All the plots feel like they were pieced together, without any logic or coherence.

It can be said that the final product and the Justice League directed by Director Zha are definitely two different works!

His other movie 'Man of Steel' is also like this.

Although it's not as miserable as Justice League.

But, editing is still a key point that is criticized.

One can imagine how important editing is!

And Brother Qin!

Not only has super strength in photography, but his editing ability is also not bad.

This...

It's simply unimaginable!

Thinking of this, Zhang Yimou and Director He both secretly squeezed the contracts in their hands.

Such a master.

Is this price appropriate?

"Actually, it's very simple. Your advantage, Director Zha, lies in the visuals, and what the fans want to see is nothing more than the interaction between heroes and special effects, so..."

Qin Mu smiled and briefly talked about his thoughts.

He is a fan of superhero movies.

He has a deep understanding of what most of the audience wants to see.

Therefore, combined with his skills, he easily kept the shots he wanted.

After a while.

Director Zha and Nolan nodded in unison after listening to Qin Mu's eloquent talk, their eyes full of satisfaction.

The statement is simply too correct.

For big commercial directors like them, it's about catering to the audience's tastes.

Whatever the audience wants to see, they film and keep.

Only then can the reputation and box office climb step by step!

"Can I ask a presumptuous question."

"Mr. Qin, how long did it take you to edit Justice League?"

Nolan asked curiously.

"About an hour or so, a bit slow."

Qin Mu said with a faint smile.

It was mainly because it was his first time doing movie editing, so he wasn't very skilled.

If he were to edit it again now, it should take half the time.

That's what he thought.

But that doesn't mean others think so.

Director Zha, Nolan, Zhang Yimou, and Director He were all shocked.

Staring at him in disbelief.

Slow?

Are you kidding me!

It's really not slow!

Even if it's secondary editing based on someone else's work.

The time required will definitely not be short.

Ideas, creativity, attempts, corrections... etc.

Which of these steps doesn't take time?!
