186: Grand Prize Finalist

Park Ye-jin took a bite of lotus root, and her mouth was filled with fragrance and praised: "It's so delicious. We come to Donglai and know how to cook, are popular and make money. We are really representative of good men. Whoever wants to marry him in the future will be happy."

Yoo Jae-suk immediately took over the conversation, his mouth was stuffed with flesh, and he still made up scandals and said, "You already have a country in jeans, don't think about it. Yoona xi and Donglai are just in line."

Li Donglai automatically ignored his fabricated scandal, changed the subject, and made a proud expression: "That's right! I am a good man, and a good man is Li Donglai. In the future, everyone should forget those nicknames such as "bad boys", please call me "good man."

"Hahaha……"

After dinner, everyone was holding their waists, and their stomachs were too full and they didn't want to move.

Seeing that Li Donglai was also lying on the table, Lin Yuner reminded her: "Oppa, there are also Girls' Generation brand desserts."

"By the way. There are also desserts after meals." Yigu got up.

Yoo Jae-suk: "What dessert?"

Lee Hyo-ri: "There are also desserts after meals? Donglai is so considerate."

The nine vivid dough balls were brought up, and after fermentation and steaming, the dough became more cute. From the fat cartoon style, you can also distinguish the members of Girls' Generation. Li Donglai started to take the lead and took the lead in grabbing "Taeyeon". "There are only nine of Girls' Generation, and one person can't eat them. Get it first, first serve."

"Wow." Everyone rushed up and quickly grabbed all the desserts. As a result, Dacheng, who had just walked out of the room, was defeated. After learning the details, he rolled on the ground in frustration.

Li Donglai held the dough in his hand and said, "I am 'Taeyeon', ha." He swallowed it in one bite.

"Donglai, you actually ate Taeyeon in one bite." Jin Xiulu shouted.

Lee Hyo-ri smiled and said, "Do you like Taeyeon from Girls' Generation the most? Don't you like Yoona?"

"What's wrong with Taeyeon? It's perfectly short. Brother Xiulu also likes Taeyeon." Li Donglai swallowed the dessert in two groups, slapped Jin Xiulu with high fives, and the two men celebrated each other.

Lin Yuner looked bad, "Hmph."

"Haha, our Yoona is angry. This one is sunny, it really looks like it." Yoo Jae-suk said.

"My name is 'Jessica', who took Yoona away?" Kim Jong Kook also said.

"Hehe, here." Only then did Lin Yuner take out the unique deer-eyed cartoon dessert from her hand.

"It turned out that Yoona took it away himself."

Li Donglai's eyes rolled and leaned over and said, "Yun'er, give me a bite. I ate it too fast just now and didn't taste it."

"No." Lin Yuner immediately hid far away.

The interaction between the two acquaintances made everyone smile.

...

After dinner, the stick dance was performed, which was only available in Korea. The entire shooting was officially over.

Lin Donglai, who returned to Seoul, did not have time to come. At the end of the year, various TV stations have begun to hold annual awards. Lee Donglai was nominated for many awards at the MBC Acting Awards for "East of the Garden of Eden", including "Best New Actor", "Popular Actor", and "Special PDF Award", and will definitely attend the party.

In the radio performance award held by SBS, "Birth of the Family" also received multiple nominations, and it is estimated that it will also be there depending on the situation.

In the 29th World Qinglong Film Festival, Li Donglai also won multiple awards for "Unfacing the City". Because the awards of the Qinglong Film Festival are divided into three stages, the first stage is caused by the audience's online voting. The second step is to obtain the shortlist from the audience's voting results. The third step is to determine the final award results from the shortlist by the jury. Who will serve as the judge every year will be announced at the final award ceremony.

Now Li Donglai's fans are too tough. By voting, Li Donglai has been shortlisted for many awards in a row.

It includes several awards including Best Actor, Best New Actor Award, Popular Star Award, and Best Screen Couple Award. It is really tough. No wonder Korean media calls him the strongest newcomer. It is worth mentioning that in the Baeksang Art Award, which is the least shortlisted, he and Yoona were both shortlisted for the Newcomer Award.

Although it is the first year of entry, it is destined to be a year of bumper harvest.

But these are not what Li Donglai cares about the most, because as time goes by, the editing work of "Source Code" has come to an end and the sound effects have been completed. Li Donglai is busy flying to Los Angeles in his spare time. He gets into the dark little room in the editing room and stays for a day. He has a heated discussion with Sean and Duncan Jones.

"Jones, is this part bad? Why was it cut off... Oh, no." Li Donglai looked heartbroken and held Duncan Jones' hand to prevent him from doing anything.

"Hey, Lee, don't do this." Sean comforted: "I know the editing process is like constantly cutting the flesh. There are too many good shots, but only ninety minutes are needed to be screened. The previous conversation that has been repeated over and over again must be simplified and condensed so that the audience will not be bored."

"Shawn, I know, but this conversation is the key to fascinating, isn't it? If you cut it with just a few flash shots, it really streamlines the plot, but it lacks the atmosphere that allows the audience to enter the movie world. I think this scene cannot be less than eight minutes, and it may be good to call it the black eight minutes."

"Eight minutes? Oh my god, will the audience watch a non-stop shot for eight minutes? This won't work, it will ruin the entire movie."

"I don't think so. Although eight minutes are a bit long, the picture is arranged properly and will not have that kind of situation. It will not leave the audience with the impression that the whole play is on the train..."

"...Hey, can I be quiet for a while? My ears are almost blown off." Jones complained dissatisfiedly, "Gentlemen, can you listen to my advice? After all, I am the editor."

The two of them calmed down, Li Donglai shrugged and signaled Duncan Jones to speak.

Duncan said: "First of all, I agree that the importance of this shot is the core of the entire article, and we cannot delete it too much. However, eight minutes is really a bit bloated. My suggestion is that the starting shot is more detailed, and the recurring shots in the later scenes should be deleted as much as possible, and try not to cause too much repetition. This will naturally omit the film and compress the space."

Sean and Li Donglai looked at each other, agreeing with this idea. Li Donglai said, "Okay, let's do this first and see what the effect is."

Post-production is not only about editing and soundtracks, but also about special effects production. There are not many special effects shots in "Source Code", and explosion scenes and time-breaking scenes are not considered very high-level special effects today. As long as you do it fine enough, you can still achieve top-level effects. In this regard, the predecessor of "Phantom" happens to have such a foundation, so the production of special effects scenes can be carried out simultaneously. This greatly reduces the film production cycle.

Li Donglai's free time is rare, it is best to do it all before the New Year, otherwise he will be squeezed out by a lot of work arrangements in the coming year. After a week, the movie finally entered the final stage.

It's time to think about the release.
