Chapter 198 Editor(1/2)

198 Editor

The classic novel "Shawshank Redemption" does not need to be described in too many languages. After listening to it for a while, several people on the scene were deeply attracted by the stories inside.

Regarding why the story of "Shawshank Redemption" is so attractive, many people have done research or discussed it with each other. Most of them say that this story is a story about despair and hope. Hope is a common thing for mankind and the foundation of human survival. Without hope, mankind will perish, but if there is hope, mankind can create all kinds of brilliance.

The Americans are very savvy of Shawshank's redemption.

Of course, the whole world and all mankind will empathize with it.

So the few people present - except for the first Raspberry, Alice, and Linda, and a few people walked in behind - everyone was quickly attracted by the story.

Some people stand straight with their hands around them, their eyes condensed into a dot, and they listened intently.

Some people leaned against the wall, with their hands in their pockets, looking lazy, but their eyes were actually not focal, and their minds were full of stories about Shawshank.

Some people sit on the edge of the bed, blinking their eyes, staring at the berry and ears up, not missing any word.

There was only the rustling sound of the huge room. After a while, Linmei seemed to have received professional recitation training and was very professional.

In addition, she has a very good grasp of emotions, and her reading has added a lot of points to the story of Shawshank's redemption. After listening to it, many people soon felt like they were on the scene, as if they were Shawshank, and they became more and more attracted.

However, Chen Fei wrote this story a little bit, so even though Meili didn't read it quickly, he finished reading it in a short while. The document was empty and there was no symbol.

"No?" Ruimei pulled down the document and found that it was still blank, and she was still feeling unfulfilled.

What's behind?

The others waited for several seconds, but there was no sound anymore, and they were all very strange. They quickly looked at the berry, not understanding what was going on.

"Chan, why is there no more behind?"

Ruimei turned her body, looked at Chen Fei with her blue eyes without blinking.

Linda and Alice also looked at him.

"I haven't written it later?" Chen Fei shrugged and said.

"Didn't write it?"

Everyone was stunned.

Ruimei said in a reflexive manner: "Chen, then you can continue writing, you can read while writing?"

While saying that, she stood up and gave up her position to Chen Fei.

With a thud, Linda couldn't help laughing.

Hearing Linda's laughter, Riberine came to her senses.

Then she remembered that writing novels is so easy. Writers need careful conception and then a quiet environment to focus on creation.

Aren’t there many writers who deliberately moved to those remote countrysides in order to write a good work? At this moment, so many people in this room were watching with eager eyes. How could Chen Fei write it?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help laughing.

At this time, Linda began to speak: "Chan, when will your novel be well written?"

"It's hard to say, maybe a few days, maybe a week, I don't know either."

In fact, Chen Fei doesn't take that long. He is just a porter. The story of "Shawshank's Redemption" has been imprinted in my mind. I just need to knock her out. In addition, this novel is just a novella and does not have many words. With his tentacle monster's hand speed, if you concentrate on it, you can write it quickly.

But he certainly can't say that, because in the eyes of Linda and others, writing is not that easy. The United Nations League has no concept of online novels yet. At most, they only have popular literature. But even popular literature, writing is very difficult. If you write too fast, it will only make people feel that you are not careful and are pieced together words, so he deliberately said it ambiguously.

Linda heard this and continued to ask, "Chen, have you decided where to publish this novel? Or publish it directly?"

"I don't have any idea yet. I got inspiration a few days ago and suddenly remembered to create this story. However, I, a Chinese, wrote an English novel... I am afraid it will be difficult to publish it, right? Even if I publish it, the sales will not be good."

"No!" Linda shook her head: "Chen, definitely not. The story of "Shawshank Redemption" is really wonderful and excellent. Really, based on my experience over the years, even in the United Nations League, there are not many such wonderful novels. He can definitely sell well, and he will definitely cause a sensation."

Having said that, the things behind it naturally came naturally. Linda volunteered, "Chan, why don't you... give me the electronic documents and I will recommend it to our group's Nurete Times after I go back. The Nurete Times will serialize some wonderful novels. As long as they arouse the interest of readers, they will be published and distributed soon. If the sales are good, various copyright developments can be kept up immediately. I believe that the editor-in-chief of the Nurete Times will also like this story. Believe me, Chen, I am serious."

Chen Fei naturally wanted to do such a thing, but he did not wait to agree, but he hesitated, mainly showing a sense of lack of confidence.

Linda then became more and more determined to her belief, as if it had become her mission to recommend "The Shawshank Redemption" to the Nurete Times and make the entire American League readers like this novel.

The others in the room naturally cheered Chen Fei up.

"Chan, believe in myself, this story is really great!"

"Yes, Chen, Alice is right. This story is really attractive. Even I, who doesn't like reading novels, is deeply attracted?"

"Chan, my biggest wish now is to hope that you can write down the subsequent part as soon as possible. I really want to know if Shawshank was regained his freedom in the end? I really want to know what happened to him in the end?"

"Chan, although you are a Chinese, and writing English novels by a Chinese always makes people doubt it, but at this moment I have to admit that the story of "The Shawshank Redemption" is really so beautiful. You know our Affiliate better than many of our Affiliate people. The culture and geography in this story are all very beautiful, and it doesn't make people feel the drama at all. It's really great!"

When Chen Fei got here, he naturally followed suit: "Linda, then... I'll bother you! Thank you!"

"No, Chen, it should be me who said thank you. I should thank you for allowing me to read such an excellent story. I should thank you for your trust in me. It is my honor to entrust such an important work to me!"

Afterwards, Chen Fei and Linda discussed specific details, such as if the novel was really published in the Nurete Times, would Chen Fei have any requirements, how to calculate the royalties, such as the subsequent part, how to submit the manuscript in Chen Fei, etc.

Time flies, and it is the time for dinner in the blink of an eye. Chen Fei took his group to the restaurant for a meal. Linda and others rarely had the opportunity to eat Chinese food before. This time, Chen Fei invited them to various characteristics of the capital and ordered some things suitable for European and American tastes. He didn't order those that were too spicy or too heavy, so after the meal, the group's belly was round and they couldn't help but sigh that the Chinese food was so delicious that they would come back in the future.

The next night, Shangdun and others took a plane back to the United Nations, and Chen Fei personally sent them onto the plane.

After returning from the airport, Chen Fei did not return to his apartment, but drove to an old community where he wanted to visit someone.

This person is Wu Meng, a retired film editor. It is said that he was an editor at the Bayi Film Factory at the beginning. Later, he resigned and wanted to run a film company by himself. Unfortunately, he was not successful. In the end, he lost all his savings. In desperation, he had to apply for a film company to continue working in editing. However, the film company had a great career and did not take him seriously, so he was always depressed and not very successful. Later, when he got old, he simply retired.

Chen Fei didn't know this person before. He personally checked most of his previous works and then edited them by several editors of Yuhe Film and Television. But now, he doesn't have that much time, and secondly, because he wants to make "Wolf Warrior" flawless, so he needs a master of editing with profound skills to help him do this.

A layman may not be very clear about the importance of editing for a movie, but industry insiders attach great importance to it. A movie must be good-looking, and several links are very important and indispensable. The first is naturally the script. Without a good script, no matter how powerful a director is, he cannot make a good movie, and a clever woman cannot cook without rice;

The next one is the director.

The script is the foundation, and the director is the key.

The director is the key to presenting the wonderful script, which is very important. It can even be said that he is the soul of the entire movie;

No matter how exciting the script is, if the director is so beautiful, it will not be good. To give the simplest example, some directors can make her look gorgeous, while some directors can make her look ugly, and the same crying scene, some directors can make the actors cry heart-wrenchingly, while some directors can only make the audience feel too fake at first glance;

The last key is editing.

A movie is more than a hundred minutes, but the director will far exceed the things that the director shoots. Therefore, which pictures should be left, which ones should be cut, and how the pictures should be arranged and combined are all the work of the editor.

A good editor can transform a movie that is not very outstanding and become a wonderful one, but a bad editor can also cut a good movie.

Editing is the whole of the film, that is, the thought.

Editing is the last re-creation in film art creation.

Editing can organically combine sound and picture to form a perfect screen image.

Editing builds the skeleton of the video and completes the story; editing can create different video styles through different editing techniques; using editing techniques can create an atmosphere and present a certain special psychology; editing can also continue and release the emotions of the characters.

In a word, editing is very important.

"Wolf Warrior" is Chen Fei's first movie. He attaches great importance to it and hopes to do the best in every link. The editing is no exception.

Wu Meng is the best editor he hopes to find.

He didn't know this person at first. It was when he was filming in the Southwest this time. After he came back, he found out that the old man was really a bit standard and amazing, so he would visit him in person today.

He found the door according to the address given by a friend.

Wu Meng's place is not very good. It has been a few years, and it is dirty and messy, with a large number of people coming in and out. There are all kinds of people coming in and out. Some look like retired factory workers, and some young people with colorful hair dyed. In addition, there are also some guys who are not serious at first sight, and there is not even a security guard at the entrance of the community.

Chen Fei disguised himself as he was so crowded when he walked into the community, no one recognized him.

He found Unit 2 504 directly.

Dongdongdongdongdong.

He knocked on the door.

But there was no response for half a day.

Dongdongdongdongdong.

He knocked again.

But there was no response.

A resident opposite opened the door, poked a head full of dusty breath from inside, looked at Chen Fei, and said, "The old man is not here, what are you asking for him? Handsome guy, why don't you come to me to sit? Ensure you are very comfortable, I will make you happy until you fly to the sky!"

Chen Fei was so scared that he quickly went downstairs.

As soon as he came out of the stairs, he heard a voice of a man speaking on the left. The man was covered by a row of shade and could not see his face.

The man said, "Old Li, please, please do a favor, okay? As long as you can recommend me to Chen Fei, I agree to whatever you want me to do, really beg you, I am really desperate now, if I can't afford the money, my wife will be kicked out of the hospital by the doctor? Old Li, I have never asked you in my life, this time, I really beg you, believe me, Chen Fei will definitely need me, in this country, there is really no one else to edit skills. Chen Fei is a person who strives for excellence. As long as he knows that I am very good, he will definitely invite me..."

Chen Fei was very surprised.

Is this person Wu Meng?

He followed the sound.

When he walked over, the other party had just hung up the phone.

The other party was an old man with white hair, who was in his sixties, but he was energetic, with bright eyes, but he was a little thin.

When he saw Chen Fei, he raised his head, but because Chen Fei was wearing a hat, he couldn't recognize him.

Chen Fei took off his hat.
