After signing the lease intention contract, Su Ya and Wan Xiaohu returned to the company.

When the company changes its location, it also needs to communicate with its employees. Li Xia has shares in the company and needs to be informed. Then he also needs to decorate and arrange it. I don’t know how long it will take to actually move in. Wan Xiaohu did not follow up on the follow-up questions. He has enough things to do now and is almost overwhelmed.

In the evening, Wan Xiaohu originally wanted to invite a few friends to have fun, but considering that there were too many drinking and dinners these days, he decided not to be so corrupt.

"We must be excited and not be captured by the flower world outside!"

He shouted at himself twice, took a taxi to Huayi Brothers' editing room, checked the copy, and sorted out the shooting progress over more than a month.

After saying hello to the person on duty, Wan Xiaohu hid in the editing room.

From the first shot to the recently sent shot, Wan Xiaohu finished watching it completely. It was already past ten o'clock. He made a cup of tea himself and began to try to set the editing order.

The editing of a movie can be understood in four levels. First, the connection between the shots; second, the editing of several scenes to form paragraphs; third, the editing as the overall structure of the film; fourth, the editing combining picture materials and audio materials.

Now that "Butterfly Effect" has only half of the shots, it is impossible to edit the overall structure. However, the connection between the shots can be effectively utilized. As a science fiction film remake from Europe and the United States, due to the localization of the content, the plot has also been changed a lot. How to edit it cannot be compared with the original version, which is quite thoughtful.

"I have set up a metaphor montage here. When editing, only by meshing these two sets of shots together can the metaphor be expressed in a simple way..."

Wan Xiaohu took the pen on the notebook, recorded the serial numbers of the two copies, and wrote another analysis.

"The dialogue in the heart needs to be highlighted by the help of narration. So, why not set up a comparison between these two shots and turn it into a contrast montage?"

"These two sets of lenses are long lenses, and it seems lengthy to superimpose the two. This set of lenses should be added..."

Almost in the middle of the night, Wan Xiaohu wrote down more than a dozen pages of text in his notebook, mostly with the numbers of some shots and various montage techniques. At this stage, it is not possible to really edit, and can only be imagined on paper.

Montage means editing, originated from France, and refers to the combination of various shots with depth. After arriving in China, montage has been localized and is no longer defined as editing, but refers to the means with special effects in the editing, parallel montage, narrative montage, metaphor montage, comparison montage, etc.

The most important thing for montage is to manipulate time and space, and to make large jumps in the time and space of the movie. "Butterfly Effect" talks about the theme of time and space shuttle, and it is inevitable to cooperate with montage.

Moreover, the original movie has a wonderful theme and a lack of fancy plot, especially a strong sense of fate. Wan Xiaohu wants to remove the drought and retain the essence, leave the beauty of the theme, make the plot more full and smooth, and change and break the fate of the theme.

Whether it is the open finale version he is preparing to shoot or the dark version, whether the protagonist dies or is alive, he must abandon the fatalism and define it as a future that can be changed. After all, positive thoughts are more likely to be accepted by the audience, and it is also Wan Xiaohu's own feelings.

He will definitely break his old self and gain a new life!

Just like that, it was repeated over and over again.

It took a break until after one o'clock in the morning before Wan Xiaohu went back to rest.

Early the next morning, I rushed to the crew early and seized the time to shoot the scenes.

...

On August 4, Zhao Wei's schedule was adjusted and he rushed to the crew to shoot the guest role.

"Zhao Wei, you are here, welcome."

Wan Xiaohu and the director team personally welcomed Zhao Wei's arrival.

As one of the four little actresses, although Zhao Wei does not perform much in the movie, he has become an Asian pop idol with "Return of the Condor Heroes" and "Return of the Condor Heroes' Second Part", and is extremely popular. He soars into the sky, known as the "Little Swallow Storm" and the "Zhao Wei Phenomenon". He is the first pop culture idol in the history of mainland China.

"Xiaohu, how did the movie be filmed?" Xiaoyanzi in the TV series is careless, and Zhao Wei in reality is also careless, revealing his heartless innocence in his words.

Wan Xiaohu laughed: "The movie is easy to pass, and now I'm waiting for you to add a little glory to the movie."

"Of course, I'm your senior sister. It's natural for me to help my senior sister. Come on, how do I want to take pictures?"

"That's it, this..."

In the original "Butterfly Effect", the male protagonist changed the past for the first time, which led to the reality that he lived with the heroine, and went to the bathroom early in the morning and met a female classmate who was the same. This is absolutely impossible in China, so Wan Xiaohu modified it and changed it to the male protagonist who rented a house outside and brushed his teeth when he went out, and met Zhao Wei who also went out to brush his teeth.

"Zhao Wei, the camera is very simple. Just brush your teeth and say hello to Chen Kun..."

Arrange everything, Wan Xiaohu returns to his chair and watch the monitor.

The slogan has been shouted and the camera has begun.

Chen Kun was wearing big shorts and came out of the rental house. It happened that Zhao Wei was also wearing a cool summer outfit. When he went out to brush his teeth, there was still a lot of foam in his mouth.

The role of Su Ye, who Chen Kun is going to play, has just changed the reality and has not yet recovered, so he is a little confused. Looking at Chen Kun's stupid smile and the Hawaiian shorts added by Wan Xiaohu's evil taste, Zhao Wei couldn't help laughing.

"Sorry, I'm sorry, haha." Zhao Wei waved his hand quickly.

"It's okay, do it again." Wan Xiaohu smiled.

Zhao Wei and Chen Kun are classmates, both of them are students of Beijing Film Academy. At that time, Zhao Wei got the first place in the professional courses for girls, and Chen Kun got the first place in the professional courses for boys, and both of them had social experiences and soon became good friends. However, before Zhao Wei graduated, she took on "Return of the Condor Heroes" and became popular. Chen Kun became popular until the New Year because of "Like Fog, Rain and Wind".

Now, the relationship between the two is very good, and they have not been in trouble like they did later.

The second time I took the filming, I didn’t expect it to be even worse than the first time, and Zhao Wei laughed again.

"Zhao Wei, stop laughing. I'm acting very seriously. If you smile, I feel I can't find it." Chen Kun was fussed by Zhao Wei and felt nothing.

Zhao Wei covered her stomach: "Okay, I won't laugh anymore, hurry up and I'll treat you at noon."

The laughing scene at the beginning was just not in the state. In fact, Zhao Wei's acting skills were very good. After the third time, Chen Kun and Zhao Wei finally stopped making trouble and finished the entire shot.

Wan Xiaohu turned the monitor back and looked at it, shook his head: "No, I don't feel anything at all. Chen Kun, your performance traces are too heavy. Zhao Wei, please show your acquaintance. Chen Kun doesn't know you, but you know him, listen to it, come again, 1, 2, 3, prepare!"

After doing it again, the effect was much better. Wan Xiaohu took another photo with the attitude of striving for excellence.

Starting from nine o'clock, and before ten o'clock, Zhao Wei's guest appearance ended.

Chen Kun immediately shouted that he wanted Zhao Wei to treat him to dinner.

"I have something urgent to do at noon, so next time." During the break, Zhao Wei took advantage of Wan Xiaohu's next shot and sat on Wan Xiaohu's director's chair.

"You have something urgent to do, why don't you leave now?" Chen Kun was speechless.

"I said I had an urgent matter at noon, but now there is nothing urgent matter." Zhao Wei picked up the loudspeaker and shouted to Chen Kun, "You, the camera just now is not good, let's have another one."

After Wan Xiaohu finished assigning the task, he came back and saw it, and shouted: "What's wrong, Zhao Wei, you are going to usurp the throne."

"Who seems to be interested in this broken seat? Come on, I'll take a photo of you too?"

"You really want to take pictures?" Wan Xiaohu's eyes rolled and he thought of something.

"how?"

"Then let's shoot it, I just want to show up in the movie."

Since he made a guest appearance in "Waiting Alone", Wan Xiaohu has fallen in love with the feeling of showing up in his own movies. Many directors, such as Hitchcock, like to show up in their own movies, not for being famous or something. They are purely entertainment, and there is no important role. They just flash by, just one or two lines.

As for letting Zhao Wei direct the microphone, it is actually just for the purpose of hyping up topics during the future publicity period.

"All units are careful and prepare!"

Zhao Wei sat on the chair with a drastic move, picked up the loudspeaker, and greeted him. It was really satisfying to be a guest star as the director.

"That, that person, be quicker."

"And you, you, can you move faster and slow down!"

"Wan Xiaohu, what about you? Why are you stunned? Get in your place quickly."

"Chen Kun, be more fierce after a while. Don't be polite, just greet Wan Xiaohu's face." As the director, Zhao Wei was full of airs.

The plot where Wan Xiaohu wants to make a guest appearance is that the male protagonist becomes a bad student because of the changes in the past, and teaches a few younger brothers a lesson. Wan Xiaohu is one of them, and the other three younger brothers, one is Li Xia, one is Ning Hao, and the other is Cheng Er.

The four people lined up in the playground of Beijing Electric Power, and then Chen Kun and his brothers taught them a lesson together.

In fact, this scene is Chen Kun's one-man show. Wan Xiaohu and others guest appearances, and they don't even have lines or actions, so they can beat or scold them. As a photographer, Lu Le mainly features Chen Kun's expressions and brings four younger brothers with him.

I lowered my head and didn't take long to take the first shot.

Zhao Wei was not satisfied: "Do it again, Chen Kun, you didn't eat, your expression is a little more intense. Wan Xiaohu, and you, why are you combed your hair so smoothly? It's messing up."

"The head can be broken, blood can flow, and hairstyle cannot be messed up!" Wan Xiaohu resisted firmly, and then gave Urshan a questioning look. Zhao Wei was nominally the director, but he was watching under Urshan's nose. Wan Xiaohu was firmly grasped by Urshan.

Urshan nodded and signaled that what Zhao Wei said was reasonable.

Helplessly, Wan Xiaohu had to grab two hands on his head and make it into a bird's nest.

"For the sake of the movie, I've given it. It's better not to have the image!"
