CCTV has special dubbing studios, recording studios, editing rooms and other necessary places.
The price of the dubbing contract signed between CCTV and Lu Yuan is not low, about 50,000 per episode, which is already the price for first-line dubbing and commentary.
If this price was given to a normal TV station's behind-the-scenes dubbing host, it would definitely be painful, but for Lu Yuan, Zhou Xianzu felt that he had made a good deal!
Who is Lu Yuan?
He is a big shot now. After yesterday’s peak battle, who among those who like and follow piano in China doesn’t know Lu Yuan?
To put it bluntly, if Lu Yuan just participates in a program and shows a smile or something, can't he get millions of dollars in appearance fees just by waving his hand?
So you're saying you'll pay 50,000 yuan to hire Lu Yuan to do the dubbing and it might take a whole day?
How can you not make money from this?
If the documentary channel wasn't so poor, Zhou Xianzu would even be embarrassed to mention the cost of 50,000 per episode.
However, Lu Yuan strongly requested that his real name should not be used, and he wanted to use the strange stage name "Eleven".
eleven?
Zhou Xianzu and Liu Bangshun felt a little strange when they first heard this stage name.
Such a weird stage name has never appeared in the entertainment industry.
Does this mean anything?
And they have to sign a confidentiality agreement and cannot disclose it.
What is Lu Yuan doing? Is he just changing his identity for fun?
Then Liu Bangshun suddenly felt that he understood.
He felt that Lu Yuan was thinking about "A Bite of China". After all, no matter how Lu Yuan tried to whitewash himself, his reputation as a "god chef" on the Internet was too deeply rooted in people's hearts. If these viewers saw that the dubbing was done by Lu Yuan, the "god chef"...
Will they still watch A Bite of China? Even if the dubbing is good, it always feels weird when they see the name.
Liu Bangshun told Zhou Xianzu this self-righteous answer, and Zhou Xianzu instantly felt that this young man was really good.
When Lu Yuan arrived at the recording studio, he found that there were more people in the studio than he had imagined.
At the same time, he noticed a slightly fat middle-aged man with a slightly silly look on his face in the crowd.
Lu Yuan seemed to have seen this person on an animal TV show.
What's this person's name?
By the way, his name is Zhao Guoxiang!
"Hello, Mr. Zhao, hello..."
"Hello, Xiao Lu. I watched your live broadcast yesterday. Haha, it's amazing! Heroes emerge from youth!"
"No, no, it was all luck, luck..."
When Lu Yuan saw Zhao Guoxiang, he took the initiative to step forward, greeted him with a smile and shook hands with him.
Lu Yuan didn’t think he was very capable. After all, Zhao Guoxiang was his senior after all.
Zhao Guoxiang also nodded to Lu Yuan and smiled sincerely.
He did not see any arrogance in this young man, as if the sharpness he had when playing the piano had completely disappeared.
This young man is truly terrifying.
Although Zhao Guoxiang was smiling, he felt a little surprised in his heart.
At Lu Yuan's level, isn't it terrifying that he can conceal his arrogance so perfectly that even a man in his fifties can't find any flaws?
The more one restrains his arrogance and the more willing he is to take the initiative to say hello, the deeper he hides.
Moreover, he is still so young.
future……
Zhao Guoxiang found that he couldn't believe how far Lu Yuan could go.
But can this young man really do good dubbing?
Can he really?
In fact, Zhao Guoxiang has always been skeptical about this, and he came here today for the purpose of saving the situation or as a substitute.
After getting to know Zhao Guoxiang and others a little, Lu Yuan took over a long manuscript.
Lu Yuan will start reading according to the contents of the manuscript soon. Of course, there are no regulations on the frequency and so on. It is not enough for you to just read it. Many things still depend on post-production and editing.
Of course, the first episode is just to test the waters. If the sample after the dubbing of the first episode is very successful, then the next step is to shoot all the materials and package them together for dubbing. If it fails or does not achieve the results they want, then that is naturally another matter.
Looking at Lu Yuan who was reading the script, some other staff members were more or less skeptical like Zhao Guoxiang. Among them, Du Wei, the documentary post-production assistant, had always been extremely suspicious of Lu Yuan. He even joked with Zhao Guoxiang before Lu Yuan came in that the dubbing this time would probably end in failure. Even if it succeeded, it would not be possible to record the first episode in one day. It would take at least three or four days...
Why does he think so?
There’s no reason, it’s just because it’s Lu Yuan’s first time doing this kind of dubbing work and he has no previous experience.
Without any experience, can you do everything like some professional dubbing commentators?
It’s difficult and there are definitely bumps and bruises.
You said you could finish the work in one day?
Are you kidding me? Do you think you are using cheats?
Moreover, Du Wei himself likes Zhao Guoxiang's voice very much.
He felt that Zhao Guoxiang's voice was very deep and comfortable, and was very suitable for dubbing and narrating this kind of food program...
As for Lu Yuan...
At the age of 25, it’s impossible for my voice to meet that requirement, okay?
It must be very different from Teacher Zhao!
Is this even necessary?
Of course, he couldn't just snort and mock Lu Yuan as described in some novels...
He's not a moron, so it's fine to say some things in private, but if he really says it in public...
Is his emotional quotient negative?
Instead, he smiled at Lu Yuan, actively cooperated with Lu Yuan in any work, and tried his best to satisfy Lu Yuan's wishes.
That's his duty.
"Xiao Lu, can we start?" After Lu Yuan had been reading the manuscript for more than an hour, Zhou Xianzu looked at Lu Yuan with concern.
"Well...I have a small request."
"What do you want?"
"I want to see the edited footage from the first episode, so I can get a better feel for it..."
"Well, okay." Liu Bangshun nodded and asked the staff to open the materials in the computer and play them.
He is now cooperating with Lu Yuan with all his strength.
Not only him, but everyone here also cooperated...
The first episode is about fifty minutes long.
Lu Yuan watched the contents of the first episode silently, and then thought of the contents of the original world in his mind.
Although it is the same topic, there is a certain difference in the content.
However, Lu Yuan felt that this gap did not affect anything.
He closed his eyes and recalled the content and narration of "A Bite of China" in his original world.
Then he pondered over some details...
He felt that it was not a big problem and continued to read the contents of the manuscript.
Du Wei felt that Lu Yuan was a bit pretentious.
I came here today mainly for an audition and not to actually start recording.
Why don't you just go into the recording studio and recite a few lines, and then do some minor editing over there?
I spent an hour reading the script and another hour watching the video. The actual audition will have to be tomorrow.
If something unexpected happens tomorrow...
Two or three days later...
It may not succeed.
Of course, big leaders like Zhou Xianzu didn't say anything, so he, a small fry, naturally had no qualifications.
And it is normal for novices to be slower.
This is normal.
Zhou Xianzu stood by and looked at Lu Yuan.
He is very patient.
He believed in Lu Yuan, and he didn't know why, but he felt that Lu Yuan was definitely capable of doing the role of dubbing commentator.
As for why he believed it, even he himself didn't know.
After reading the manuscript for about half an hour, Lu Yuan finally let out a long sigh of relief and nodded to all the staff, indicating that it was okay.
Then, take the script and walk into the recording studio.
Of course, he did not start reciting immediately. Instead, he calmed down and recalled the so-called hypnotic voices that echoed in his mind when he was cooking. At the same time, he adjusted his throat slightly again.
“Ahem…”
The sound of the quiet cough was very clear throughout the recording studio.
This gave Lu Yuan a feeling of discomfort.
But it's not a big problem.
After the adjustment, Lu Yuan made an OK gesture to the staff...
When he saw that the staff were ready, Lu Yuan closed his eyes slightly.
"As a gourmet, the wonderful taste of food is certainly worth savoring, but where does food come from? There is no doubt that we get all our food from nature. Before we go into the kitchen and onto the dining table, let us return to nature and look at the original gift she gave us..."
"China has the most dramatic natural landscape in the world..."
When saying this, Lu Yuan entered a state of ethereal feeling.
This is a state similar to singing before.
Lu Yuan looked calm on the surface.
But there are so many things lingering in my mind.
He imitated the sound of the original world, but added his own understanding to the imitating sound.
That is what I understood when I was cooking before.
He controlled his tone to be gentle, yet he spoke slowly and at an unhurried pace. Lu Yuan even changed several lines on the script without authorization...
Lu Yuan's condition was better than ever before. He felt that he seemed to have a natural talent for interpreting food!
The staff member was about to interrupt Lu Yuan for changing the lyrics without permission but was stopped by Liu Bangshun.
Zhao Guoxiang looked at Lu Yuan in the recording studio.
He looked a little surprised.
Yes!
He found that Lu Yuan's voice had completely changed, and was completely different from the voice he had just used when he spoke.
If he didn't look at Lu Yuan, he would even think that this was a middle-aged man with a deeper voice than his own who was dubbing.
How is that possible!
What's wrong with this guy's throat?
Isn’t this incredible?
Du Wei was also a little shocked.
For some reason, he felt a strange sense of magic in Lu Yuan's voice...
"The best ingredients often require only the simplest cooking methods. In this commercial society, people eat everything and add everything to food just for money. Modern people's taste buds have been numb. If you want to live a long life, eat the food given by nature..."
The staff felt a little embarrassed.
Lu Yuan in the recording studio changed the script without permission again.
This line is not in the script...
However, it sounds like there are no flaws at all, but rather a light flavor in it?
"High-end ingredients often only require the simplest cooking methods. A simple bowl of noodles, however, will taste different if you add something else, such as fungi..."
"After frying, its juice turns yellow and has a rich aroma..."
Du Wei felt even more weird.
Lu Yuan's voice actually made a strange picture emerge in his mind. Every detail became a video that echoed around him. He seemed to be able to hear the sound of frying, and he even felt that he smelled a fragrant smell.
etc……
What's going on?
Du Wei's expression became horrified...
this……
What method did this person use?
He shook his head and stared at Lu Yuan.
as if……
Damn it!
