"Your is still a bit too long..."

In the room with a little dim light, both of them were silent for a while before Lin Hao frowned: "A few days ago, didn't you say, cut out a two-hour version?"

He has been busy filming recently. To be honest, there are not many scenes in "Saw 2", but the shooting time is really small. In addition, he cannot check it out in person at the first time abroad, so he suddenly heard Ning Hao say this and was speechless.

"I know."

Ning Hao sat on the chair, holding cigarettes in his hands, dark circles and red bloodshot eyes, and his spirit was like eggplant caused by frost.

But, no one is depressed:

"I cut that halfway through, and I can't cut it anymore. I deleted a lot of the layout, and that's just..."

OK, I understand.

After cutting out the three and a half hours of the version in more than a month, Lin Hao directly interrupted his statement, walked over and leaned over and said, "Don't tell me these things first, I'll take a look at your stuff."

He wrote the script, and Lin Hao guessed that he couldn't cut so many things. It should be a long scene, an empty scene, and some unspeakable expressions.

It looks like Lao Jia at the beginning.

Lin Hao was thinking about it at that time, introducing Ning Hao and Jia Zhangke to get to know each other, and expanding his connections. What was the result? He was fooled.

He frowned and began to watch.

The screen was dark at the beginning, and only some rustling sounds were heard. It seemed that someone was doing something, but only the sound was not clear. Until the darkness, the male voice sounded:

"Name?"

"True."

The male voice rang again: "Daming!"

"Zhao Hongxia."

"Where are people?"

"Liujizhai, Liangqiao Village, Xiangshui County."

...

After a few conversations, the picture finally showed colors, but they were black and white.

In cooperation with the previous conversation, it was obviously an interrogation scene. It was just that in the police station, the woman refused to cooperate, so the man opposite mentioned the "gun case" and emphasized the nature of the matter to let her honestly explain it.

The woman just smiled.

In the black and white tones, light and shadow flowed on her body.

So the camera pulled back the watch on the man's hand, and the pointer began to reverse, back to the past.

"not bad."

Lin Hao looked at the scene in the movie and said that this smile was very important, but Qin Ziyue did nothing extra.

Then, as the camera pulled back from the black and white dial again, the world began to have color, and what appeared was a large city scene of Duyun: the close-up is a building covered with white tiles, and the middle floor is a new building covered with a green security net, and the distance is a mountain.

But it seemed that it was not expressive enough, and the picture slowly moved forward. Next, Ning Hao opened a one-minute street scene - bridge, bridge, rooftop, bridge, people, river, school...

What? Do you think this is a tourist guide in Duyun?

...

"I don't have to give too much of my personal opinion. You first made a flashback, and now you have a large-scale background layout." Lin Hao pointed and said, "It's black and white at the beginning. I think this is OK, but if you take on so many empty situations, you don't know what to do if you think you're making a documentary."

"Documentary?"

Ning Hao's eyes suddenly lit up so strangely, as if the Ren and Du meridians were opened, and he almost blurted out: That's pretty good too.

But fortunately he didn't speak, Lin Hao also said:

"I'm just talking about my personal feelings, and you can consider the details yourself."

So the two continued to look at the small screen.

Inside is a robbery duo Huang Bo and Wang Baoqiang wearing helmets and robbing the bank.

The two are indeed actors who are naturally funny. With Ning Hao's talent, filming this kind of black comedy is still very exciting. The design of several funny points, freezes in the picture, and two novice robbers finally clutched the motorcycle and ran up like a monkey, which is also very funny.

Then...

The picture begins to alternately play quickly and slowly, and enters a long shot of two people running away.

“…”

With the rhythm, I feel that it is okay to pair it with an Italian opera.

...

"Overall, it's OK, but there are a lot that can be deleted."

Lin Hao looked around and found that there were large sections of expressions that could be removed, which were so obvious that it would take at least half an hour. Fortunately, there were also good shots left, and the cuts were mostly some connections and subtle expressions of the characters.

This expression can be, but not many.

The audience will feel bored.

I feel that Ning Hao is in a dilemma, and he wants to do it, but he doesn't do it well.

Then it's easy to deal with. Lin Hao is a bad guy: As the main investor, the company must not wait for your director to make full decision. So it must be changed, but it cannot be changed blindly. Lin Hao, as a screenwriter, would like to give some suggestions.

The plot is the main focus and art is the auxiliary focus.

“But, the film festival…”

Ning Hao, who had just finished the video, felt that the whole room was filled with emotions, but Lin Hao said this and made him a little confused.

Lin Hao shook his head and said, "It's not about film festivals, but just filming things that don't know. You need others to understand, at least you can think of them."

There is a vicious circle in the sixth generation of Chinese films, which is self-entertainment. Sometimes you can do too many artistic expressions that you can only understand. If you don’t have deeper professional qualities, you may not be able to understand them.

This doesn't work.

You can use a large section of empty mirror, you can take a picture of how to finish a cigarette, and you can even record the whole thing from an angle. But you can't just understand it yourself, you have to tell the audience at the right time so that they can understand it too.

Otherwise, you are like Lin Hao:

I know you will be popular, but only I know.

Ning Hao was not such a tangled person. He had already prepared all the things before filming started. He was a director with a certain picture in his mind. Now I don’t know if it was because of the influence of Cannes and Jia Zhangke, he felt that the movie was going to be like this...

Well, those who can go out these days may be a bit ridiculous. Ning Hao made Boss Lin a little depressed, but fortunately, Boss Lin waved his hand and said, "Tell a good story first. China is too short of a director who can tell a good story well."

...

My original plan was that Lin Hao wanted to watch the movie, then take a break, have a meal, meet friends, and if you have time, you can go to the newly opened supermarket to inspect the situation. I don’t know how the door-to-door delivery business is now...

And now, he called someone to clean up the place and lived in this acre of three-cent land.

Delete and reduce.

The front was quite calm, or Ning Hao held back as he looked at the boss and investor, and cut the mess quickly; behind it was a little calmer volcano, both of them carefully tested each other's bottom line, almost a scene where the camera could argue for a long time.

And, cutting is really awesome.

When Ning Hao was cutting the film, he liked to pull the room into black so that the picture could be seen clearly. However, this was a huge thing for the eyes. On the first day, Lin Hao felt that his eyes were almost blind, so he turned on the lights or pulled the curtains. In short, there must be a light source.

After that, I won’t pay attention to these environments.

All in the film.

In fact, perhaps the collision between the screenwriter and the director was fierce enough, and it really felt like a lot of things were integrated into it.

But it's still very scattered.

It feels like the whole movie is a mess. Lin Hao has the first time he wants to not be too rushed. The main reason is that he is not so confident, so Ning Hao is still the leader in the whole movie, but Ning Hao is not in good condition.

Ning Hao had a fever midway and went to the hospital for a long time.

The day before the plane was about to take off, the two of them sat silently at the table, looking at the two-hour ten-day version. To be honest, this length is definitely short when it is in the film festival, and it is also OK to be in the cinema.

"Can't cut it anymore, it's almost like that, I'm just like that."
Chapter completed!
