some things to handle yesterday, but I did catch a bit of it. It was okay; it didn’t have many problems.”
Hu Fei laughed and said, “Yesterday, I had everyone come to work earlier to discuss the second episode’s editing and the issues for the third episode. We would like your opinion on how to edit it, such as which parts to cut away and which parts to keep. After hearing about your injury, I did not ask you further. I discussed with everyone else and we decided to do it similar to the first episode, keeping it fully. However you said it, we will keep it as it is. When we saw the comments on the internet later on and asked some professionals for their opinions, everyone said this episode was as good as the first one. It was not draggy. Every part had a hook that kept the viewers interested. It’s basically a textbook for history classes!”
Dafei said “Yeah, an ex-colleague, who is also an old friend of mine, called me. He said that my editing and treatment of the show were very good, and even the netizens said so. Hur hur. But they don’t know that I didn’t even have to do any changes. Not a frame was cut. Your lecture was too good, and the rhythm was too well controlled, so there was nothing irrelevant to remove. Teacher Zhang, you are really making my job obsolete. In all my years of editing, even the best ones had to be edited a little. But I have never seen an episode where after a program has been recorded, no additional editing was required!”
Xiao Lu happily said, “If not, Teacher Little Zhang would not be called Teacher Little Zhang!”
Zhang Ye thought to himself. Of course, there was no useless footage. He did not know how Yi Zhongtia gave the lecture, but the “Lecture Room” he watched was the edited product; it was the essence, so of course there wasn’t anything that could be cut.
“Right… How was the rating for the 2nd episode?” Zhang Ye asked, “Did it maintain or go up?”
“We still don’t know. In a while, we will. Wait a while.” Hu Fei looked at his watch, “It will be soon.”
