After Alice came back and told Meng Huo about the specific situation, Meng Huo was completely relieved and then came to Yanjing again.

As June approaches, the production of "The Magician of the Early Century" has entered its final stage and will be completed within half a month. At this moment, Meng Huo went to Yanjing to check the movie's situation, but also to deal with the film's promotion and release plans.

On the afternoon of the first time, Meng Huo listened to the uncut version of "The Magician of the Early Century" at DreamWorks. The film has actually completed the main body, but has not been cut edited and partially post-processed.

Without exception, all three directors were with Meng Huo and watched this preview together.

Tomato and mach are also there, and besides them, the core staff of DreamWorks are also present, including those responsible for cutting and editing - this is Meng Huo's most important inspection before the film is completed, and he will determine the final structure of "The Magician of the Early Century".

The screening time was two hours, and no one spoke during the whole process. Meng Huo took a note while reading and recording. Every time he wrote, he made people around him nervous. After the trial, the lights in the trial hall were turned on, and many people were squinted by the stimulated lights, but they didn't care about this, and all the members' eyes turned to Meng Huo.

"Teacher He Xi, there should be no need to modify it in general, right?" Tomato asked nervously. Although Meng Huo was here to give advice on the subsequent process this time, he had to worry about whether there was any problem with the movie itself. If there was a problem, it was likely to be pushed back and started over.

"Aren't you very confident before I come?" Meng Huo asked with a smile.

Tomato's face turned slightly red. He was indeed very confident. The entire DreamWorks were satisfied with the finished film. But he was confident, and now Meng Huo sat down among them, so they naturally were worried about making mistakes.

"I'm not afraid of ten thousand, but I'm afraid of it..." Pomoto said: "If you want to push it down and start over, teacher, don't we have any solutions?"

Meng Huo shook his head and looked at the three directors: "Do you think there will be any chance?"

"It shouldn't be." The directors shook their heads and replied one after another: "This result is already very good." "I don't think there is any need to re-made it." "Its picture feel has exceeded my initial expectations."

Compared to Tomato, who is responsible for supervising the quality of the picture, the directors are more confident - this may be the ones who are obsessed with the authorities. Because Tomato is responsible for the picture guidance and review of "The Magician of the Early Century", he is even less confident.

Meng Huo looked at Tomato with a funny look: "Did you hear that... they all said that, isn't the answer very obvious?" Tomato's eyes suddenly lit up: "What the teacher means is that this movie doesn't need to be pushed back and started again?"

"Of course." Meng Huo nodded: "Your and Wenlin's work is over."

He turned his gaze to Xi Wenlin. Xi Wenlin looked happy when he heard this. The preview of "The Magician of the Early Century" was recognized, which means that his work and Tomato were completed. All that was left was the modifications of the director and other technicians.

"That's great!" Tomato made a celebration move, then clapped Xi Wenlin: "Wenlin, we can go home and rest! Teacher He Xi. We will be rewarded this time, right?"

Meng Huo nodded. These two assistants made a great contribution to the on-time completion of "The Magician of the Early Century". Of course, he would not treat them unfairly.

"After the movie is released, the reward will be paid to your account." He stood up with his notes and said to the people around him: "Now we will have a meeting in another office to discuss the work later."

The staff in the trial room immediately stood up. They had already prepared a conference room and just moved it over.

"Teacher Tomato..." On the way, a director said to Tomato and Xi Wenlin: "You don't have to rush to leave. The movie will be released in one month. We hope you can continue to help during this period."

"This..." Tomato and Xi Wenlin looked at each other. In fact, they liked the job very much, but they stayed in Yanjing for several months and even worked overtime on holidays, which caused both of them to rarely go home. They wanted to go home and reunite more than work.

"I think this idea is good." Meng Huo heard their conversation and said, "Your work is over, but there may be places that need you later--it doesn't matter if you miss home. The subsequent work doesn't take much time. You two can just come here occasionally."

His words convinced Tomato and Xi Wenlin, and the two assistants nodded immediately.

"But how did the teacher know that we miss home..." The two cartoonists both turned a little red, and they were very surprised in their hearts how Meng Huo knew their thoughts - but who doesn't know their obvious thoughts? Not to mention Meng Huo, who has had a few years of friendship with them, the employees of DreamWorks also know their thoughts.

Bai Yan joked with Meng Huo a few days ago that these two men were not masculine - "Better than the two of them, the two women in Tokyo are more career-oriented."

Meng Huo deeply agrees that the two female assistants who Tokyo helped the animation "Dragon and Tiger" are undoubtedly Bai Yan's very competent helpers. They inherited their usual style after becoming Meng Huo's comic assistants, worked hard and did things seriously and would not be distracted by their private lives.

In fact, these two assistants are the assistants who have the least contact with Meng Huo. Their relationship with him is the most unfamiliar among all assistants, but after several years of observation, Meng Huo's most reassured assistant is also them.

One obvious feature is that Meng Huo can be assured that the work of these two assistants will not be interfered with. They work independently for a long time and will not be relaxed at all - and this is exactly what others lack.

Several assistants in Jiayuan Community also have to work at Meng Huo's home from time to time. This is to facilitate Meng Huo's inspection work. It is not that he does not give them the opportunity to choose freely, but that he knows that if he lets go, the quality of the comics will begin to decline by at most half a year.

The lives of these assistants are so comfortable that they even lose a lot of motivation.

"Teacher Hua Meng is better..." Meng Huo thought to himself. Among the comic assistants in Jiayuan Community, Hua Meng is the one with the most self-control. Wang Yanmeng is too young and is in a bad state from time to time.

He was very strange. It seemed that among the cartoonists, it seemed that the people who made their homemade were girls, and there was another person in it: Qin Ya - Qin Ya looked very uncontrollable on the surface, had a lot of thoughts, loved to eat and play, and she would try to complete her work quickly and give herself more rest time.

But even so, her willfulness is based on ensuring the quality and completion of the comics, so she should actually be the most self-controlled person.

There are too many powerful female cartoonists, and in comparison, there seems to be no male cartoonists - but Meng Huo thought about it again that there are only a few male cartoonists he is familiar with, and he cannot simply draw conclusions.

And at least these male cartoonists cannot let them be free, but under timely supervision, their work is also quite outstanding.

"If you have the chance in the future, find a few male assistants..." Meng Huo thought so. His yin and yang were weak. If he could find a more powerful and self-controlled male cartoonist, it might also arouse the competitive spirit of Tomato and others.

But of course, compared to this, the meeting of "The Magician of the Early Century" is more important now.

The meeting started from four in the afternoon to ten in the evening, and the dinner only took half an hour off. All the remaining time was used as a group discussion. Meng Huo did not press his requests on others. He put forward the standards, but more time was to discuss with everyone how to conduct post-production.

The results of the conference were also very rich. Before the end, Meng Huo was almost sure that he would not need to check the film again before the completion of "The Magician of the Century". As long as they were produced according to the details they established, "The Magician of the Century" could become a very outstanding work.

After the meeting and the employees left one after another, Meng Huo had a small discussion with several directors, and finally determined the release time and promotional method of "The Magician of the Early Century".

The promotion of the movie will be left to Alice - her stimulation of "The Rebellious Lelouch" has been unanimously recognized by the directors, and she also believes that she can promote "The Magician of the Early Century".

However, in terms of the release details of "The Magician of the Early Century", the directors did not adopt the past methods of Phoenix. They were all well-known directors, with their own ideas about the choice of theaters and the arrangement of releases, and had deep connections. Meng Huo eventually respected their opinions.

This is not a bad thing. On the contrary, DreamWorks can act as independently as possible to facilitate future business divisions, and directors also need this event to prove their reused status at Phoenix - at least not a puppet who is only responsible for making movies.

Meng Huo also agreed with them that after "The Magician of the Early Century" was released, one director would be responsible for the next movie, and the other two directors would join different animation departments, just like Bai Yan, and start trying to make animations.

"I look forward to your smooth transformation before next year..."

Meng Huo has deep expectations for several directors. If these directors ultimately prove their abilities, he will be able to let go of the long-standing action mode of "making animation" next year and become a cartoonist again.
