Full-time actor

Chapter 668 [94] It’s fine for people to eat it, but dogs will die if they eat it!

"Through the comparative analysis of the growth of Chinese and North American movie box office revenues from 2002 to 2006, as well as the forecast for the next ten years, we can clearly see that the Chinese movie box office market has been catching up from a relatively backward situation!"

“It is showing a trend of sustained strong growth, and has demonstrated the potential and advantages to surpass North America in terms of market expansion, box office revenue growth, and diversification of film types!”

"This is the result of the combined effects of China's economic development, policy support, and profound cultural heritage!"

"Although the North American film market still has super strength and global influence, in the long run, the Chinese film box office is expected to continue to maintain a good growth trend with its own advantages, and eventually surpass the North American market in terms of box office growth, occupying a more important position in the global film industry. At the same time, it will also better spread Chinese culture and enhance the country's cultural soft power..."

"..."

Chen Yu was talking about his paper. Except for Hao Rong who was listening very attentively, the other defense teachers either had not read it or were just flipping through it.

It was obvious that the two professors were not impressed by Chen Yu's paper.

Although the data listed by Chen Yu seem to be true, your subjective judgment is wrong when analyzing this thing.

No matter how fantastic your analysis is, it is just a castle in the air.

Just like you said that China's economy can surpass that of the United States, in the eyes of some people this is something that will never happen in this lifetime. How can you make them believe it through your analysis?

Chocolate is fine for humans, but it will kill dogs.

The two people began to grade Chen Yu's paper, and Chen Yu had almost finished his paper at this time.

"Although the growth prospects of China's film box office are optimistic, we also need to be aware that there are still many shortcomings, such as the international dissemination capacity of films, which needs to be further strengthened!"

"The box office performance of most domestic films in overseas markets is still unsatisfactory. Although the innovation capacity of the film industry is improving, there is still a big gap compared with the top international level!"

"In the future, the Chinese film industry needs to continue to build on its local advantages, actively learn from advanced international experience, and constantly improve itself. While maintaining good box office growth, it also needs to enhance its overall international competitiveness and bring more excellent film works to global audiences!"

“Thank you, this is the paper I wrote!”

Chen Yu bowed to the teachers in front of him. In fact, everyone sat very solemnly.

Everyone's eyes were the kind that would scare young people, otherwise many students wouldn't sit there and start getting nervous for the defense.

Many professors have always been very serious about this kind of thing.

Just like when they vote for the Golden Rooster Awards, box office is not important, controversy is not important, their conservatism is what matters most.

Conservative, stubborn, and stubborn.

They believe in a principle they believe in, but change their attitude when they see money.

Chen Yu had experienced something like this in the Golden Rooster Awards in his previous life, but the Film Bureau was very open-minded. The most fucked up thing was the department that controlled the voting rights for the awards, and their review was considered good.

"Chen Yu, tell me why you are researching this direction?"

"Shouldn't actors consider performance-related issues?"

Hao Rong asked suddenly. It was actually a routine question, not something he asked deliberately.

"I mainly want to give Chinese filmmakers some confidence through my own cases and market analysis!"

“I hope more people can enter this market and promote Chinese films to the world!”

Chen Yu's answer was of course well thought out, and Hao Rong kept nodding as he listened.

He asked a few more questions and then let other teachers start asking questions.

Chang Li and Liu Tianchi certainly wouldn't make any trouble, but one of the two old professors said, "Chen Yu, state the facts and provide evidence. All the premises of your paper are based on your predictive analysis. It is not a qualified paper template!"

"Let's put aside the future of Chinese movie box office for now. Tell us about the pursuit and reflection of Chinese new era movies at the moment!"

"..."

This is a question that only an old professor could ask.

Chen Yu had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Speaking of new era movies, let's first understand what this new era is. What exactly does it mean?"

Isn’t it just reading comprehension that requires careful consideration of each word?

Just like Mr. Lu Xun's two trees, Chen Yu has his own response policy.

"If this era is not just a concept of historical periodization, but a concept of certain characteristics, just like the third and fourth generation of Chinese films..."

"Then I think the first thing that movies in the new era must do is innovation, innovation in imaging, shooting, and technology!"

"..."

Chen Yu was talking there, and it seemed like it really was the case.

The two old professors didn't seem to have any objections to what he heard, and their expressions were much better than when he was defending just now.

They do not agree with what Chen Yu said in his paper, but they will not treat a student based on likes and dislikes. The professors can tell the difference.

Whether the paper is good or not has nothing to do with the question.

"In the new era, Chinese films must be both artistic and commercial, with both popular and niche films. Commercial and popular films are not necessarily vulgar and decadent, while artistic and niche films must take on the responsibility of pleasing the spirit. This is the relationship between material and spirit!"

"Diversity, inclusiveness... follow the Chinese characteristics..."

Chen Yu racked his brains to finish answering the question, and finally the two professors nodded expressionlessly.

"Okay, this concludes the thesis defense for Class 02 of the 1 Performance Department!"

After seeking the opinions of the dean and professors, Chang Li finally announced the sentence that everyone wanted to hear most.

Free!
At this moment, all the students in Class 02, Department of Acting, Grade 1, were truly liberated.

After attending the graduation ceremony and taking graduation photos in the afternoon, you don’t need to come to school anymore. You can pick up your diploma yourself or have it mailed.

"The two professors are so harsh on you!"

When Liu Yifei thought of Chen Yu’s last question, she felt a little scared.

Fortunately, his problem is not that difficult. If he encountered this problem, he would not know how to answer it at all.

“Because they are not satisfied with my paper!”

Of course Chen Yu could see it.

"Tell you not to challenge difficult tasks..."

Liu Yifei giggled, said hello to her classmates, and walked out of the classroom.

The results of the defense will be released later, and those who fail will have to take a make-up exam.

After the students walked out of the classroom, several teachers and professors started discussing.

"Chen Yu's paper is not well written!"

"Answering questions is fine!"

A professor was talking there, and Chang Li didn't know how to say much, but Hao Rong smiled and said, "I think it's well written, with good reasoning. If it turns out to be as he predicted 10 years later, it would be a good thing!"

"It doesn't take 10 years, 5 years will be enough..."

Chang Li was surprised by Hao Rong's opinion and responded quickly.

"It's difficult!"

"Hollywood dominates all markets around the world now. Can China be an exception?"

"Look at Taiwan and Hong Kong. Now the mainland is dominated by Hollywood commercial popcorn blockbusters. Whether it's technology, investment, or scale, they are not on the same level!"

"how to spell?"

Another professor spoke up.

Hao Rong smiled and shook his head, saying, "Professor Li, the box office champion in mainland China this year is Chen Yu's film, "The Force Awakens"!"

"It's long gone!"

"Mission Impossible 3 has grossed 8 million yuan, and the global box office is also close to 8 million US dollars!" "Although it is starred by Chen Yu, it is still a Hollywood movie!"

"Chen Yu's own new film is also aimed at Hollywood, so I don't understand the significance of him writing this paper!"

Professor Li held Chen Yu's paper and had not yet given it a grade.

He really wanted to give himself a failing grade, but he still had to consider the social etiquette. However, Hao Rong next to him had already given the grade.

91 points!
This is already a very high defense score, and above 90 points is excellent.

60-69 points are passing, followed by 70 points, medium, and 80 points are good.

Chang Li and Liu Tianchi had a good fight.

On the other hand, Liu Yifei performed very well among the other five students, because for an undergraduate student, this paper was indeed well written.

"All right!"

"Give us the grades, we still have to hold the graduation ceremony this afternoon!"

Hao Rong will also participate.

Several defense teachers immediately became busy.

***
It was a rare opportunity for Chen Yu and Liu Yifei to eat in the cafeteria of the Central Academy of Drama, but they encountered quite a stir and harassment.

Fortunately, the students of the Central Academy of Drama were relatively restrained and did not do anything excessive.

The graduation ceremony will start on time at 1:1 and last about an hour, and then we will take graduation photos and bachelor's photos.

The Chinese Academy of Drama in 06 was not as procedural as it is in later generations. This year, because Chen Yu and some students were filming outside, graduation was almost at the end of June. In fact, in previous years, graduation would have ended in mid-to-late June.

This year is a time for deliberate procrastination.

Therefore, the defense, graduation ceremony, etc. were all put on one day. The process was quite rushed, but it also saved the students from having to travel back and forth.

"The results of the defense should be out soon, right?"

Liu Yifei looked at the time, took Tang Yan's wrist, and the students of Class 02, Grade of the Central Academy of Drama walked towards the bulletin board downstairs in the performance building.

There were already many students gathered there.

The graduation defense of the Performance Department of the Central Academy of Drama can be said to be more important than the graduation drama.

If you don't perform well in the graduation drama, at most it will affect some of your subsequent performances and academic performance evaluations; but if you fail the defense, you will have to face the situation of retaking the exam and not being able to graduate, so no one wants to fail.

If it were after a certain incident, it would actually be more strict, with students retaking the exam every year. But now it is more lenient, and this time, all students in Class 1 of the Acting Department of the Central Academy of Drama passed.

The results have been posted.

"Wow, Yifei is first with 93.1 points!"

The students gathered in front of the bulletin board couldn't help but shout.

"Huh? Me?"

Liu Yifei happily pulled Tang Yan over. Tong Yao saw her running over and quickly joked, "Xixi, we'll treat you to dinner tonight!"

"Sure, you're really the first?"

Liu Yifei stood on tiptoe and saw her name. Tong Yao was second, only one point lower than hers.

The third place was actually Zhu Yawen, with 90 points.

However, he tied with Luo Jin for third place.

Only four of them scored above 90 points, which is excellent.

Then there were a dozen or so good ones, and everyone was looking for Chen Yu’s name. Many people actually saw it at a glance.

Chen Yu, 74.6 points.

Very below.

Medium is already at the bottom.

"Brother Yu is only average?"

Li Zefeng was unconvinced and said, "What's the level of the defense teacher? I think what he said was pretty good!"

"that is!"

"But this thing is also for the graduation certificate, just pass the exam!"

"It's gone, it's gone!"

The boys were still very united, and some of them obviously couldn't accept the fact that Chen Yu only scored 74 points.

Some of them knew that Chen Yu’s score was not high this time, but they pretended to be injustice.

Chen Yu looked at the result and said nothing. Grading is subjective, and 74 points was actually better than the passing score he had expected.

He thought he could only get over 60 points, and it was impossible for him to fail as the standards are not that strict now.

That is why Chen Yu dared to write like this.

"Let's go to the graduation ceremony!"

Liu Yifei thought Chen Yu was in a bad mood. After all, young people still have a strong desire to win.

At least she was happy that she got first place in the defense, but she couldn't be happy that Chen Yu scored so low, although she actually knew in advance that his paper was dangerous.

Chen Yu has always been the most famous student in the school. He has performed very well in both art exams and graduation dramas. He is super outstanding and much better than the second place.

After getting this score in the graduation defense, Liu Yifei thought that he would be proud of himself and would definitely feel a little upset.

"Sure, first!"

Chen Yu just smiled. Liu Yifei sniffed and looked at him with her beautiful eyes.

"It's really okay..."

Chen Yu was too lazy to explain. It was just a defense, not a box office flop.

Is there any difference between getting a diploma with 100 points and getting a diploma with 60 points?
The biggest difference is that in the future the media will write a sentence about you, "XX graduated with the highest score in the school after the thesis defense." This will actually not help your fame or career at all, it just makes your resume look better.

This is not like getting first place in the art exam, which will make the teacher look at you with new eyes and pay special attention to you.

However, the group of graduates around me obviously wouldn't understand.

"Well, I'm glad you're okay!"

“They just don’t know how to appreciate it!”

Liu Yifei also tried to comfort him, and Chen Yu felt really helpless when he heard it.

At this moment, they were walking towards the multimedia classroom for the graduation ceremony.

"Yifei, when did you become so hypocritical?"

"Even before, you said at the end of the defense that I challenged a difficult task. You actually don't think highly of the paper I wrote, do you?"

Chen Yu knocked her head. Liu Yifei touched her head, stuck out her tongue and smiled: "Isn't this just to comfort you?"

"unnecessary!"

"One day in the future, everyone will know the value of this paper!"

Chen Yu was still as confident as ever. Looking at her boyfriend like this, Liu Yifei was sure that he was really not affected at all.

Because this kind of Chen Yu is the Chen Yu he knows!
