Chapter 924: Finishing and Returning to China

Three days later.

Tan Yue checked the preparations of each department one by one. Every employee was excited. Today was the last scene. As long as they could finish the shooting smoothly, they could go home.

"Director Tan, the actors have done their makeup and can start shooting."

Tan Yue nodded and said, "Let the actors take their positions and prepare to start shooting."

Hearing Tan Yue start shooting, everyone was excited. The next scene was Ma Guoliang's part. Everyone felt that it would be fine if they could pass it in one take.

The last scene was "Forrest Gump" sitting on a bench at the bus stop in the park to share his story with others. It was also the beginning of the movie.

Tan Yue deliberately put this scene at the end of the movie, so that when Ma Guoliang said this line, he would feel like he was really recalling his past.

Ma Guoliang was wearing a white suit and his white shoes were covered with dust. After he sat down, the makeup artist touched up his makeup.

While the assistant director arranged other group actors, Tan Yue sat in front of the monitor and watched the debugging of several groups of lenses.

For this scene, Tan Yue and Ma Guoliang just had a brief exchange.

After the makeup artist left, Ma Guoliang sat on a bench, recalling the scenes he had played during this period, and soon found the feeling he needed to play this scene.

More than ten minutes later, the shooting began.

The appearance of feathers falling in the wind can be well presented with current special effects, but Tan Yue decided to use real feathers to complete it. Two staff members dressed in green clothes controlled the direction of the feathers with very thin steel wires in their hands.

The camera rotated in the direction of the feathers falling and fell right at Ma Guoliang's feet.

Hearing Tan Yue's "click", Ma Guoliang did not move his position and would continue shooting later.

Tan Yue quickly checked the clips that had just been shot. There were some flaws in them, and it took two reshoots to achieve the effect that Tan Yue wanted.

Then continue shooting.

The bus stopped at the station for a while, and the assistant director outside the camera asked the actress to enter and sit on the bench.

"Hello, my name is Forrest Gump." Ma Guoliang opened the chocolate on his lap and handed it over: "Would you like some chocolate?"

The actress took a look at the chocolate, shook her head slightly, and turned her head to continue reading the magazine in her hand.

"I can eat hundreds of chocolates."

Ma Guoliang said his lines naturally.

He and the actress who played with him had rehearsed this scene many times, and there was no problem.

"Click."

At this time, everyone on the set felt nervous. Whether this scene could be completed depended on whether it met Tan Yue's requirements.

Tan Yue played back the clip, carefully watched each frame, and then picked up the loudspeaker and said: "Pass! I declare that "Forrest Gump" has officially been completed!"

In an instant, the whole set was boiling.

"Nice! I can finally go home!"

"Go home, go home, I want to take a plane back now!"

"After being busy for more than half a year, I can finally go back. I have to send a message to my wife and ask her to prepare some delicious food for me in advance."

"It's not easy! After half a year, the movie is finally finished."

"This is the time I miss home the most. I don't have many opportunities to talk on the phone."

"Pack up the equipment quickly, and you can go back home earlier!"

"Since I came to this place, I have been thinking about when I can go back. After waiting for so long, I finally have time to go back."

Many crew members hugged each other excitedly.

"Congratulations, Mr. Ma, the shooting is finished!"

Applause rang out all around.

Although it was the last scene, Tan Yue still sent Ma Guoliang a bouquet of flowers.

Ma Guoliang took the flowers: "Thank you, Director Tan."

"You have worked hard all this time." Tan Yue also had a smile on his face. The movie that was shot abroad for half a year was finally finished today.

"It's not hard, I enjoy it." Ma Guoliang's problem of being easily out of the play is gone, and now he finally feels the joy of the movie being finished.

Moreover, he had a great time acting in this movie and even wanted to continue acting.

But all good things must come to an end, especially for a movie that lasts more than two hours.

"Teacher Ma, can we take a photo together?"

During the filming, everyone was quite reserved. Now that the film has finished shooting, many actors rushed to Ma Guoliang to take photos with him.

After six months of getting along, they had already been conquered by Ma Guoliang's acting skills.

Ma Guoliang did not refuse, and everyone who came to take photos with him agreed.

Tan Yue called Chen Ye over and arranged: "Xiao Ye, go and do some statistics to see if everyone wants to hold the wrap-up party here or after returning home?"

"Okay, Mr. Tan."

Tan Yue began to arrange the finishing work for others.

Chen Ye opened the memo on his phone and began to ask everyone's ideas.

"We've been abroad for half a year. I want to return to China to hold a wrap-up party."

"Let's go back to China."

"I'll listen to everyone's opinions. It doesn't matter where we hold the wrap-up party."

"Tell Director Tan that we should return to China."

Chen Ye counted the numbers and went to Tan Yue directly after looking at the contents recorded on the mobile phone memo. He didn't have to bother to count again. He got the result.

After the film was finished, everyone's homesickness became stronger and they all wanted to return to China as soon as possible.

After Tan Yue knew the result, he handed over the matters related to holding the wrap-up party after returning to China to Chen Ye.

In fact, his idea was the same as the crew members, who wanted to return to China to hold a wrap-up party so that they could return home earlier and meet Chen Ziyu.

"Everyone come here, let's take a group photo together." The assistant director was busy on the side.

After everyone was in place, the assistant director in the crowd shouted loudly: "Forrest Gump——"

"Good luck on wrapping up!"

The photographer pressed the shutter and took a group photo of the "Forrest Gump" crew.

When Ma Guoliang was about to remove his makeup, he was pulled to take a group photo again.

Under Tan Yue's arrangement, the entire crew began to pack up, and these photography equipment could be shipped back to China by air after being packed up.

After the entire crew was extremely excited, they couldn't help but speed up the speed of packing.

The next day, early in the morning.

The parking lot in front of the hotel was particularly lively. The crew members came out of the hotel dragging large and small bags, with smiles on their faces, and they didn't look like people who had been working for half a year.

Tan Yue came out of the hotel wearing a baseball cap and asked, "Xiao Ye, has everyone come down?"

"Everyone has come out, and the formalities have been handled."

"Get in the car, it's time to leave here." Tan Yue got on a business car, lowered the window and looked at the hotel, feeling a little emotional for a moment.

After all, he has lived in this place for half a year, and he doesn't know when he will come here next time. Even if he comes, he will probably accompany Chen Ziyu to start a global trip.

Tan Yue and his group left the hotel by bus, arrived at the airport more than an hour later, and soon boarded the plane back to China.

The plane took off at ten o'clock, and it was already twelve o'clock when it landed at Beijing International Airport.

Jet lag is difficult for many people to overcome, and this time is the same, but unlike when I went there, this time even if I was exhausted, I could feel everyone's excitement.

After sitting on the plane for fourteen hours, the first thing I did after landing was to stand up and move my body.

"Oh my god, my waist is about to break from sitting, but I finally made it to the ground."

"I'm home, I'm finally home!"

"Help me up, I'll lie down after I get home."

"Everyone, get off the plane quickly, let me get off and feel the air of my motherland."

"Think about it, the last time I left was last year, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye. I wonder if there have been any changes."

"I'm so sleepy, I'll go to sleep first when I get home, let me adjust to the jet lag, it's a bit uncomfortable."

The group got off the plane happily and trotted all the way to get their luggage.

Pushing the suitcases to the exit as if taking off, they saw the staff sent by the company to pick them up at a glance.

"Found it, found it, the car that picks us up is here."

"Brother, where is the car parked?"

"Two red buses at the door, you can just get on."

The staff who picked us up at the airport was not in a hurry to leave, he was waiting for Tan Yue.

Soon, several people wearing masks and hats came out. It was obviously Tan Yue and others. They greeted them hurriedly: "Mr. Tan."

"Are you the one who came here to pick up the plane today?"

"Yes, some people have already boarded the car one after another."

"Thank you for holding the sign here."

"It's okay." The staff continued: "Mr. Tan, Mr. Chen is waiting for you in the car outside."

Tan Yue's eyes lit up. He didn't expect Chen Ziyu to come with him.

He knew that Chen Ziyu still had work to do, so he didn't ask Chen Ziyu to come to pick him up when he called yesterday.

Tan Yue said: "You can go home and rest directly. You have been busy for so long. Take a good vacation these days."

Ma Guoliang and others left with another staff member.

Led by this staff member, Tan Yue saw Chen Ziyu talking to the employees as soon as he came out.

"Give me the luggage, you go and get busy first."

Tan Yue just stood aside and looked at Chen Ziyu with a smile on his face.

It seemed that some employees noticed Tan Yue. Chen Ziyu turned his head in the direction of everyone's fingers, and the smile on his face became brighter, and then he trotted over.

The two hugged each other tightly.

Tan Yue whispered in his ear: "Zi Yu, I'm back."

Chen Zi Yu calmed down his excitement. How could he let his employees see his weak side?

"Let's go back first."

"Okay."

Others in the crew will be sent home by someone else.

Tan Yue sat in the passenger seat honestly. He hadn't rested for more than ten hours and was very tired now.

"You have lost weight during this period." Chen Zi Yu felt distressed. He didn't notice it when he started the video, but it was particularly obvious after they met.

"It will be fine after two days of rest."

He has been busy for half a year. Even if there is a special chef, it can't withstand such a large consumption.

The two talked and laughed all the way back home.

Chen Zi Yu deliberately didn't go to work today.

"It's still comfortable at home." Tan Yue looked at the unchanged room and thought about living in a hotel for half a year. It was a completely different feeling.

Chen Zi Yu said: "Go wash up first. I will cook today. Take a good rest and see if my cooking skills have changed in the past six months."

"Okay."

A week later.

Brilliant Entertainment Company, President's Office.

In order to relieve Chen Ziyu's pressure, Tan Yue took a day off at home and returned to the company to start working. He carefully learned about the development of each department in the past six months.

Seeing that each department was moving forward according to the plan he had made before leaving, Tan Yue was very happy.

Tianjing Entertainment and Guangmei Entertainment have also been working hard recently to seize market share through various methods.

But it is very difficult for them to take over Brilliant Entertainment again.

Brilliant Entertainment not only has a stable market in China, but also gradually begins to contact some international entertainment circles.

There is no way, who let them not shoot a movie like "The Truman Show" that is popular in the global film market.

Of course, even if their strength catches up again, Tan Yue has the confidence to win back.

In the past few days, Tan Yue has already figured out the company's situation and started planning the next route.

More than two hours later, Tan Yue got up and went to the editing room.

On the first day back from the United States, all the clips of "Forrest Gump" were sent to the editing room to start editing.

"Mr. Tan."

When Tan Yue came to the editing room, he saw that it was busy inside, and the person in charge came to say hello.

"How is it?"

"It is expected to be completed this afternoon."

"Okay."

This week, the editing room has been working overtime every day to speed up the editing speed. Now the editing work has been almost completed.

Tan Yue said, "You guys keep busy."

Tan Yue joined the post-editing work and often made some suggestions of his own, which made the editing speed much faster.

In the afternoon, when Tan Yue was working, the person in charge of the editing room came to the office.

"Mr. Tan, the movie has been edited."

After everyone left, Tan Yue watched the newly edited "Forrest Gump" in the office. He watched the movie of more than two hours very carefully.

Mainly to see if there were any mistakes in the editing.

After the movie, Tan Yue rubbed his eyes and was very satisfied with the editing work this time. There was no need to go back to modify it.

Tan Yue drank a sip of water and picked up the internal phone to call Chen Ye to the office.

"Mr. Tan."

"Xiao Ye, go and notify Mr. Wu and Mr. Zheng, and ask them to come to the office. I have something to find them."

Zheng Tong and Wu Gong met in the elevator. Seeing each other coming together, they probably understood the purpose of today and were a little excited.

They were also waiting for the release of Tan Yue's new movie.

"Knock, knock, knock." Chen Ye knocked on the door.

"Come in."

"Mr. Tan, Mr. Wu and Mr. Zheng are here."

Tan Yue put down the work in his hands and said, "Let them in."

After the two sat opposite each other, Tan Yue said, "The editing of the movie has been completed. I asked you to come here today to discuss the release of the movie."

Zheng Tong and Wu Gong looked at each other and thought to themselves that their guess was indeed correct.
