How long did it take to film a TV series?
There was no definite answer to that. If it was slow, it would take a few years. If it was fast, it would only take a few months.
IPartment was a lifestyle TV series and was not complicated at all. Coupled with the fact that there were only twenty episodes in the plan, they were almost done in just over two months. That progress was already very fast, but with the addition of Ye Lingchen, the progress was suddenly accelerated!
As the saying went, a raging soldier and a raging general made a nest.
Ye Lingchen seemed to have become the crew's super engine. Be it efficiency or effectiveness, they were all greatly improved. In just three days, the remaining scenes were shot. In the remaining time, they went through everything from beginning to end, reshooting the parts that were not up to standard.
In just ten days, the entire TV series was forcibly reorganized from top to bottom.
After the filming was done, all that was left was editing. However, Ye Lingchen did not plan to stay idle. He simply sat in the crew and began editing on the computer.
"So many scenes are not bad. I can't bear to just edit them out like this," Ye Lingchen lamented. However, his hands did not slow down at all, going through one episode after another.
The editor at the side watched with wide eyes, trying to point out the flaws in Ye Lingchen's editing to make his presence known. Unfortunately, he was thinking too much. His eyes were red and swollen from staring at the screen, but he could not point out any problems.
"Done." Ye Lingchen stopped, then turned to the editor at the side and said, "Come over and take a look. Is there anything you want to add?"
"Uh, okay." The editor bit the bullet and sat down, then began watching from the beginning. He gave it his all, but there was really nothing that needed to be added. A little more would make him look fat, and a little less would make him look skinny.
There was a sense of crisis in his heart, as if he would be fired the next moment. It was too insecure.
Having such an awesome boss was really a torment that made people feel ashamed of their inferiority.
He was not the only one. In fact, even the cameramen, lighting technicians, and other departments had the same feeling. Ever since Ye Lingchen arrived, none of their skills had been put to use. All they could do was follow Ye Lingchen's orders. Most importantly, Ye Lingchen's instructions were perfect.
Even Li Tai felt that he was an unnecessary director, and felt extremely ashamed.
The only thing they could be thankful for was that Ye Lingchen did not know how to clone himself. Otherwise, they would not be able to do anything.
"Phew … It's finally done."
Ye Lingchen smiled. After wrapping up his work, he stood up and announced generously, "Tonight, let's go to the Grand Capital Hotel. It's my treat!"
"Wow, long live Young Master Ye!" Lu Xiaobu seemed to have been injected with adrenaline as he howled, "Tonight will be a sleepless night!"
"Are we having a party? Ah ah ah, party, party! "Chen Meijia had already started to dance on the ground.
Everyone was extremely excited.
"You're such a prodigal!" Xiao Feifei, who was at the side, could not help but roll her eyes at Ye Lingchen. She could not help but feel sorry for him. "Such a high-class place. We should've waited until the TV series was released to celebrate."
"Hahaha, I'm just celebrating in advance." Ye Lingchen shrugged nonchalantly. He knew in his heart whether the TV series would be a success or not.
"Young Master Ye, I want to attend the celebration party too!" Zhao Liangying shouted from beside Ye Lingchen. Ever since the last time, she had been going there every other day, claiming that she had not fully recovered from her illness.
"You can't. You're not part of our crew." Ye Lingchen shook his head and said mercilessly, "Pay for it yourself!"
"Tsk, stingy." Zhao Liangying snorted, then rolled her eyes and asked curiously, "I've watched this TV series. It's different from the TV series I've watched before, but it's really good. Young Master Ye, what do you think the ratings will be?"
"What do you think?" Ye Lingchen asked with a smile.
Zhao Liangying thought about it seriously for a moment, then said, "You're on Durian TV. This station has only gained some popularity recently because of Singer Y. The overall ratings are only 0.4. I think if this TV series can get 0.8, Durian TV will be making a fortune."
"I think it's more than that. I don't know what the results will be, but my sixth sense tells me that it'll be more than that," Lin Wanyu said.
"No need for premonitions. Chen Chichi's first TV series will definitely be a hit!" Chen Chichi said excitedly. The completion of the first TV series in his life gave him an indescribable sense of accomplishment. That was the most exciting moment of his life.
"That's right. My handsomeness, coupled with Chen Chichi's cheapness, will definitely be invincible!"
"Tsk, you two can forget about it. The main thing is that this beautiful young lady is supporting the show." Chen Meijia joined in.
"Have you guys forgotten about me, Queen Hu Yifei?"
Just as they were discussing heatedly, Ye Lingchen's light cough instantly calmed them down, and their tone changed. "Of course, all of this is naturally made more beautiful by Young Master Ye."
"Young Master Ye is the biggest guarantee. I bet the ratings will definitely break 1!"
"Anyway, I know that listening to Young Master Ye is the right choice!"
"In this life, my handsomeness has only lost to one person, and that's Young Master Ye!"
Soon, even the staff joined in. They were very concerned about the ratings. After all, that was their blood, sweat, and tears.
"In any case, I think this TV series will definitely be a hit. Even someone like me who doesn't like to keep up with TV shows can enjoy it."
"I think so too. This TV series is great. It's really good."
"Yes, definitely not a problem!" Li Tai also nodded excitedly.
"Our hard work these past few days hasn't been in vain! Waking up early and sleeping late for the past few days is all worth it! " Ye Lingchen's physique was monstrous, so the intensity was very high. Some of the female staff recalled the past few days of work and felt a lingering fear in their hearts. They did not expect themselves to be able to endure it.
Now that it was finally time to reap the rewards, their hearts were sincerely touched. Everything was worth it!
Soon, their names would be on the production list of iPartment. It was very likely that they would appear at the beginning and end of the movie. If it became a hit, they would be the creators!
Ye Lingchen was initially just listening quietly without saying a word.
Xiao Feifei's beautiful eyes suddenly looked at him. She blinked playfully, then asked with a smile, "Lingchen, why don't you predict the ratings of iPartment?"
"There's really no way to predict it," Ye Lingchen said with a bitter smile.
He had never paid attention to such things and knew nothing about the so-called ratings. He did not know what standards were used to measure it, nor did he know what an outstanding result was. Naturally, he was unable to evaluate it.
"Aiya, say one."
"Yeah, Young Master Ye, say one."
