New Year's Day has just passed and the year 1998 has arrived.

Rong Guang stayed in the rented house bored, watching TV absentmindedly. CCTV had just launched the 1997 version of "Water Margin".

Of course Rong Guang had watched this classic TV series in his previous life. However, what impressed him most was not the scenes in which Pan Jinlian cheated on her in the bath, but the image of the shirtless hormonal macho figure of Liangshan Hero.

Compared with the Hollywood movie "300", which caused the crazy screams of female movie fans around the world, the Chinese TV drama directors were actually much earlier. I have to really admire them. Domestic directors in this era are really good.

Can play!

Also, those tigers were actually real tigers? The fat guys were also very involved in the performance, but the two-legged apes hid quickly, and unfortunately they didn't get any extra food. They didn't even have a day off for March 8th Festival.

Okay! Let’s go back to the Taiwanese actor Wang Siyi who plays Pan Jinlian. Through this TV series, she became famous overnight and became the beautiful fantasy of many men back then? So, in fact, men and women are the same in some aspects - women are not bad, men are not

like!

However, compared to the popularity of "Water Margin", Rong Guang was more unlucky.

Since the Spring Festival is approaching, all the film crews are rushing to work, and there is no spare editing room at all.

Rong Guang once again felt extremely inconvenient. In the future digital era, digital editing will be very convenient. If the film requirements are not high, even a computer with software installed can handle it. Where is it like now? Professional-level editing is still needed.

room?

Fortunately, we didn’t have to wait long, as we would always be free during the Spring Festival. So, we waited until New Year’s Eve before Rong Guang took all the materials and started the post-production of the film.

In order to seize the time, Rong Guang planned to live and eat in the editing room. If the post-production was not completed, he decided not to leave.

Two days of darkness passed. It wasn't until the sound of firecrackers all around him that Rong Guang woke up. He went out to smoke and take a breather. He looked to the south, in the direction of his hometown. He was alone in the capital, with only dreams and loneliness.

After a long silence, Rong Guang returned to the door and continued his work...

On the evening of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, after adding the soundtrack, Rong Guang finally completed post-production. Now, except for the opening subtitles, the film is complete.

Fighting back his physical and mental exhaustion, Rong Guang watched the film in its entirety. He made his own judgment - it was above the pass line and an above-average cinema movie.

There's nothing I can do. It loses a lot of points in terms of completeness and logic.

In addition, if we measure it based on Rong Guang's own standards, without considering any objective factors, we can only score 65 points, which is slightly better than passing.

But no matter how you score, you can definitely recover your investment. It should be easy to find publishers who are willing to pay a buyout price of 500,000. Therefore, you can conclude that you have succeeded.

Rong Guang took a long breath and finally smiled...

…

After registering with the guard, Rong Guang carried the box containing the copies and came to the office responsible for film review.

"Who are you looking for?" A middle-aged man who was reading a newspaper looked up and asked when he saw Rong Guang.

"I'm here to review the video." Rong Guang smiled with a smile on his face and hurriedly offered a cigarette, "Teacher, what's your surname?"

Putting down the newspaper with an indifferent expression, the middle-aged man lit a cigarette and said, "My surname is Wang. Which movie are you from? Why haven't I seen you before?"

"Hello, Teacher Wang." Rong Guang quickly took out the information, "This is my filming permit. I changed the name midway and also changed part of the plot. This is the new script outline."

"Well, put it down." Teacher Wang took the information and looked at it for a few seconds. After a few seconds of silence, he suddenly said, "Eh? Why have you changed the name and plot? Then we have to review the filming license.

What's the point? Either you change everything back, or... you think about it yourself."

"Well?"

Rong Guang never expected that something would go wrong here.

Filmmaking is actually a creative project. Therefore, after filming, the name and plot often change. As long as the final film can pass the review, a screening license will be issued.

But no matter what, I will always watch the video first and then decide whether it is approved or whether it needs to be modified. I have never heard of it being rejected without even taking a look at it.

Rong Guang frowned slightly, and he quickly explained: "Mr. Wang, this film was shot in the middle. The director and the heroine ran away, so I took over and continued filming. There were special circumstances, so I had to make modifications."

"Hmm. Didn't I say it? This is something you have to consider for yourself. I only follow the rules here."

Sweat broke out on Rong Guang's forehead: "Mr. Wang, can't you take a look? I can guarantee that there is no prohibited content at all, not even marginalia!"

"Don't you understand?" Teacher Wang was a little impatient, "If you really don't understand, you can go back and ask your elders. Either change it back, or... you think about it yourself!"

…

As soon as he walked out of the gate, Rong Guang lit up his cigarette and kicked the street tree in anger. The man named Wang had already repeated it three times, so how could he not understand? It was just a matter of luck.

No wonder November 2003 was so crucial. I used to brag with the seniors in the industry and listen to their introductions. I was very black before. I thought that no matter how dark it was, it would be just like that. At least I had to follow the rules. But I never expected that something was made out of nothing.

Can it get stuck in the neck?

Of course, Rong Guang is very clear about the next "formal process" - find a middleman and ask him to come out to contact the relationship. And once may not be enough, it will take several times. If they don't let them see "sincerity", they will never pass the review...

Under normal circumstances, there is nothing that can be done. Maybe Rong Guang just pinches his nose and admits it. But now he has no money and no time at all. Where can he get the money to show "sincerity"? And it has been dragging on for several months.

What should mom do?

At this time, Rongguang was furious.

To be honest, the content in this film is enough to pass the Spring Festival Gala review. And how much effort did you spend? How many difficulties did you overcome? In the end, it ended up in a dead end in a place where it was impossible for anything to go wrong?

If it can't even pass the review, then there is no issue.

If China Film or Bona has been established, there are still some possibilities. The buyout price is just lower and let them find a way to get through the relationship. Or if you are a student of one of the three major art schools or a second-generation celebrity, then there are teachers and elders above them.

Covered.

However, now that I have nothing, the only outcome is that I have no way out!

Rong Guang lit another cigarette, took a few puffs, and then slammed it to the ground.
Chapter completed!
