Huayu: Start by asking ex-girlfriends for alms

Chapter 268

This class was originally intended to talk about some cutting-edge technologies, but now it is intended to broaden students' horizons.

But sorry, Zhen Jiecheng’s main character is willful.

Do whatever you want, even if it means leading everyone to analyze the uncut version of "No to Masturbation" or even Tinto Braras's shots, that's no big deal.

In the future, a school accidentally projected an action movie in class and it became a teaching accident that made headlines, but at the Beijing Film Academy, it was nothing!
Zhen Jiecheng sat there for a while, feeling bored, so he left the podium and wandered around the lecture hall.

I have to say that this kind of "inspection" experience is very enjoyable.

Wherever I go, my heart beats faster.

"Da da da."

The footsteps were clearly heard, getting closer and closer.

Guo Fan was busy drawing, not distracted. But the students sitting next to him couldn't do that, and all of them had bitter faces.

When everyone cooks together, even if there is no law to punish the whole group, at least we can keep each other company.

Now look what happened. Aren’t you putting your brothers on the spot?

Please, don't come over here!
Stop! Turn around! Change direction.
Don't stop! Keep walking, just think of it as passing by.
He stopped, lowered his head, and stretched out his hand. It's over!
“Good, the layout is clean and the expression is clear.”

"To put it simply, three words: storyboard."

"good, very good!"

Zhen Jiecheng's smile was particularly bright.

"I'll remember you! Congratulations, you will be given a special assignment: to make a short film of the topic I gave you."

“Requirements: Basic composition and color tone.”

“The long lens moves down to the close-up, and then to the close-up. Whether to pan up to the face, whether to zoom, whether to use a telephoto lens with a shallow depth of field, the specific arrangement and combination is up to you.”

Suddenly, the topic changed.
"Explain what shallow depth of field means."

"Shallow depth of field means the background is blurry, the depth of field is very shallow, and the characters are separated from the background."

"Yes!" Zhen Jiecheng nodded. "Submit your short film assignment to the directing department office next week. Although I may not be available to teach at that time, I will greet other teachers in advance. I promise not to let your hard work go to waste and I will give it enough respect!"

As he spoke, he picked up Guo Fan's storyboard.

"Wow, that's pretty fast!"

"It's a nice painting, of course, I mean the painting itself."

Zhen Jiecheng glanced at it a few times, pretending to be confused even though he knew the truth.
"From the Fine Arts Department?"

"No, I'm a first-year graduate student in the Management Department." Guo Fan replied.

"The direction is right, but the handling of the camera language is still rough." Zhen Jiecheng returned several other storyboards to Guo Fan, leaving only one that clearly focused on the control of the "sense of distance". "Why do I emphasize no dialogue? I just want to tell you that camera language can be silent but better than words."

"Lines are the actor's weapon, and camera language is the director's inner strength!"

After a pause,
"This one is pretty good, it has some flavor."

"What did you major in?"

"Emmm, law major." Guo Fan replied weakly.

There is no way not to be “weak”!
All my confidence was gradually worn out when I went to various major film and television companies to submit my resume after graduation.

The responses were almost unanimous: Sorry, the company does not recruit legal personnel.

Guo Fan lowered his head slightly, already imagining the "cold reception" that would follow.

Unexpectedly,
"Have you ever made a movie?"

"I did, but it was just an art short." Guo Fan was stunned and answered subconsciously, "I taught myself a little bit, and then I messed around with it. It's not presentable."

"Then you should also shoot a short film assignment and send it to the directing department office. If I'm not here, give it to my teacher, Director Tian."

After saying this, he strode towards the podium.

He picked up the chalk and quickly drew a rough storyboard of Guo Fan on the blackboard.

"What is the language of the camera? To put it in the simplest terms, it means not only to do things well, but also to act well. Act in a stylish and tasteful way."

"Regarding the 'reunion of old friends' scene, the best time to operate it is undoubtedly at night."

"If the sun is very bright, it's hard to find the 'feeling'. Low light allows us to create the desired light, shadow and tone more easily."

"To describe it in poetry, it would be 'The moon is above the treetops, and we make appointments after dusk.'"

Pointing to Guo Fan's storyboard,
"The best thing about this student's design is his control of the 'sense of distance'."

“Distance not only creates beauty, but also provides space for the expansion of thinking.”

"I was very cautious and didn't dare to go in directly. Instead, I watched from a distance to see if he was dead? Was he fatter or thinner? Was he living a good life? Was he happy? And so on!"

Zhen Jiecheng talked incessantly on the podium about how to use the camera and lighting, what kind of tones and composition to use, and what effects different combinations would produce.

Explain in simple terms and tell the story in a fluent and plain manner.

Talking with mouth and drawing with hands.

Guo Fan listened attentively and took note of the key words.

He is worthy of being a great director!
Any topic can be used to draw out all kinds of useful information.

Compared with my previous experience of self-studying with professional books, it is a world of difference.

Anyone can memorize the formula, but it is difficult to understand the reasons behind it, as well as various ideas for rearrangement and combination, from the formula!
"Snapped!"

Zhen Jiecheng clapped his hands after accurately flicking the remaining piece of chalk into the trash can.

"OK! That's all for now on this topic."

I looked at my watch.
"We still have some time, so let's use the sword and qi battle of the Huashan Sect in "Swordsman" as an analogy. Since we've talked about the camera language of 'qi', let's briefly talk about 'sword'!"

"It just so happened that I had some exchanges with my Hollywood colleagues during my visit to Venice, which broadened my horizons."

"Just like"

Pull out a new piece of chalk, turn around,
"Swipe!"

Looking at the words on the blackboard, Guo Fan became even more excited.

Cameron!
Avatar!
Ordinary people don’t quite understand it.

But as an insider, how could he not know about this sci-fi masterpiece that has been whetting the appetite of movie fans for 11 years!

Motion capture, expression capture, 3D virtual image capture photography system. The words on the blackboard are getting more and more, and Guo Fan's eyes are getting more and more enthusiastic!
"Hello teacher."

"Hello, Professor."

On the way back to the office after class, I was greeted constantly.

The old “Hello, senior” has quietly disappeared, and even Jing Tian addresses teachers in a serious manner.

Even though Zhen Jiecheng emphasized several times that it was not necessary, the girl never changed.

"Huh? Why is the door open?" Zhen Jiecheng was stunned.

It was the beginning of the new semester and the weather in Beijing was quite hot. Most offices were closed and the air conditioners were on.

"No one's here? Out?"

Next second,
"屮!"

Just blurt it out!

Suddenly, I saw Lao Deng sitting in the office, with the electric fan whirring.

The most important thing is not this, but the golden lion placed in the display case window.

Direct sunlight was not enough, but they also turned on the lights.

Anyone who passes by the door will be dazzled!

Zhen Jiecheng was stunned and stared at Director Tian.

"Teacher, you are coughing, coughing, aren't you hot?"

"If you keep calm, you will feel cooler." Director Tian replied calmly.

"Then why are you turning on the fan?"

"Nonsense, of course it's to increase air circulation!"

"So, you opened the door for ventilation?"

"What else?" Director Tian raised his head and glanced at me. "You don't think I'm showing off your Golden Lion trophy, do you?"

"No! Of course not!" Zhen Jiecheng shook his head quickly and glanced at Lao Deng's forehead. "Teacher, how about I bring a basin of water so you can wash your face?"

"No need!" Director Tian waved his hand, "I did this on purpose! Sweating is equivalent to detoxification, this is called health preservation, do you understand?"

"I understand, I understand!" "It's not good to stay in an air-conditioned room for a long time. Electric fans are healthier. Do you understand?"

"I understand, I understand!"

"Well, that's good." Director Tian nodded. "By the way, why did you come to my office?"

"Ask for leave."

"Ask for leave? Didn't you just finish a class?"

"It's like this, teacher. 'No Return' is about to premiere, and I have to coordinate some things. You know, this film also involves Taiwan."

"Then go get busy! No need to ask for leave. Anyway, the school doesn't expect you to attend classes on schedule." Director Tian waved his hand in disdain, "Why are you still standing at the door? You're blocking the exhibition. Emmm, it affects the ventilation!"

"Understood, I'll leave now!" Zhen Jiecheng patted his butt and ran away.

This damn place is for fools.

I'm going to turn on the air conditioner, bye!
Go downstairs, drive, and go straight to the company.

I had a quick lunch and then dealt with company affairs. I gradually felt sleepy and simply lay down on the sofa for a nap.

It is easiest to feel sleepy in the afternoons in spring and autumn, and sleeping is particularly comfortable.

When the alarm goes off, I still hold my head as usual.

But it doesn’t matter. The premiere of "Never Return" is imminent, and many women are rushing back to Beijing to attend the premiere.

For example, Fan Bingbing, the top female employee in the company, and Hao Lei, who has nothing to do anyway so she might as well come and support her ex-boyfriend Deng Chao.

Whenever I think of these women, I can't help but feel a headache. Emmm, my headache is even bigger.

None of them are easy to serve!

Zhen Jiecheng spat and continued to devote himself to his work.

As time goes by, the promotion of "No Return" is gradually coming to an end.

The Sixth Princess produced several programs, deeply analyzing how amazing "One Snap" is, how difficult it is, how great its achievements are, and what kind of monument it has stood in film history.

Print media and variety shows work together to make "No Return" go deeper into every angle.

Wanda Cinemas put up posters a week in advance, and the footage of Deng Chao taking the risk of being shot in pursuit of a realistic experience went viral on the internet, but there were very few people praising his professionalism.

Sticking out the butt, looking back, patting the buttocks, and smiling: Come on!

Deng Chao became famous because of the horse fork worm that couldn't even fit on the screen.

The idol image that Cheng Kun tried so hard to get rid of was easily obtained by Deng Chao.

On September 9th, the 26th San Sebastian International Film Festival came to a close.

"Jinling! Jinling" won the Golden Shell Award and the Best Photography Award. When dear Brother Lu returned home with great pride,
“‘No Return’ also won the highest award and the best cinematography, but it was in Venice.”

"San Sebastian? What kind of award is this? The Spanish Film Festival? Is it one of the three major ones?"

"I know this award, Xu Jinglei has also won it!"

"I understand now that you put it that way! Jiang Wen was the lead actress for Xu Jinglei, and Xu Jinglei won. Jiang Wen was also the lead actress for Lu Chuan, and Lu Chuan won. So, Jiang Wen is equal to Saint Sebastian, and I can do the same!"

The advertising money spent did make a big splash, but it was far from what Lu Sang expected.

Turn on the TV, open the newspaper, and you will see all kinds of "no return"!
Lu Chuan's eyes suddenly turned red, and she gnashed her teeth:

"Damn Zhen Jiecheng!"

On September 9, "The Founding of a Republic", which had been "encrypted" for several days, was finally taken off the screen.

The box office was neither too much nor too little, just enough to break 400 million.

The little steel cannon had just gotten comfortable with the mainland box office record for domestic films held by "If You Are the One" when it was knocked to the ground.

But I still want to send my sincere blessing: "Boss Han, it's a good break!"

9 month 28 day.

The lobby has already been decorated.

In the square outside, a red carpet was laid out and flowers were in full bloom.

Zhen Jiecheng followed Zuoshandiao to the airport to pick up the plane. They were also accompanied by Optoelectronics, the China International Import Expo, the State Council Information Office, and the Ministry of Finance!
The guests received included Hai Jhui, Guo Dang, and several representatives of the Guo Army veterans.

On September 9, the domestic premiere of "Never Return" officially began!
"Mi Mi, I have something to do and can't go to the capital, so I'll ask you to take care of Shi Shi."

"Don't worry, Sister Cai, Hu Ge and I are here!"

After hanging up the phone, Yang Mi put the phone back in her pocket and put her arm around Liu Shishi.

"Shishi, don't be nervous! This is the premiere of my senior and boss's movie, so the red carpet is like our own! With me as your host, just relax!"

Yang Mi was extremely proud.

"Then I'll find a chance to introduce you to the senior."

"The senior is a very good person, not at all like what the newspapers say. He has an explosive temper, is unreasonable, and is very rough. I mean in terms of words."

"If you don't believe me, ask Hugo!"

"Oh, right, right!" Hu Ge nodded quickly. "Mimi is right. Director Zhen is a very good person. During my injury, Director Zhen even came to visit me. Later, when I was honing my acting skills, it was Director Zhen who helped me contact the theaters, including the People's Art Theater."

"Although I only played a supporting role in Soldier Assault, I benefited a lot from it! Not only in terms of acting skills, but also in terms of real fame and fortune."

"The current filming of Nirvana in Fire is also Director Zhen's favor to me. I know very well that there are many actors who are more suitable than me, but there is only one Nirvana in Fire."

The two of them talked at once, complementing each other.

Liu Shishi was so curious after listening to it that even her eyes were not blinded and her expression was clearly visible.

But the moment I arrived at the hotel, my relaxed state of mind instantly exploded and an even stronger sense of tension arose immediately.

Zhang Yimou and his daughter Zhang Mo, Chen Shixiong and his wife, Feng Xiaogang and his wife, Jiang Wen and his wife, Ning Hao and his wife. All the mainland directors in the domestic billion-yuan club gathered here.

Jia Zhangke, Gu Changwei, Wang Quanan and many other award-winning directors came together!
Chen Long's laughter was particularly hearty, and he took Prince Long around to socialize.

Another Kung Fu superstar, Jet Li, was also there, chatting with Gong Li, the real big sister of the Chinese entertainment industry.

Ge You, Liang Jiahui, Zhang Ziyi, Fan Bingbing, Huang Xiaoming. Pick any one of them, and they are all big names that you need to look up to.

"Mimi!"

Liu Shishi subconsciously grabbed Yang Mi's arm, trying to feel safe.

But there was no response for a long time.

When he turned around, he was shocked to find that Yang Mi's condition was similar to his, and so was Hu Ge.

It was not until Jing Tian saw the three people looking very uncomfortable in the crowd and went up to talk to them that the three people began to relax a little.

"It's almost time, let's go to the lobby!"

Jing Tian held Yang Mi's left hand and Liu Shishi's right hand.

"The three of us will walk the red carpet together later!"

"What about me?" Hu Ge was dumbfounded.

"Senior Xiaoming! Come here!" Jing Tian shouted to Huang Xiaoming.

"What's wrong, Tiantian?"

"Xiao Ming, why don't you take Brother Hu to walk the red carpet?" Jing Tian frowned, "Brother, I'm not calling you by your name, your name and 'brother' are homophones!"

"It's okay, Tiantian, just call Hu Ge!" Hu Ge said with a smile. After exchanging a glance with Liu Shishi, both of them felt that Jing Tian, ​​the "Zhen girl" who reached the peak of her career right after her debut, was exceptionally kind, cute, and polite. In short, she was exceptionally good.

When Senior Brother Chen's "The Promise" held its premiere, silver-robed warriors stood on both sides.

And "Never Return" is a real soldier.

Veteran representatives came from Taiwan, and many war gods were also invited from the mainland.

When the hostesses helped these heroes who had emerged from the hail of bullets to step onto the red carpet and into the Great Hall.

"salute!"

Stand at attention, straight, and raise your hands in unison.

The old soldiers straightened their hunched backs as if reflexively. Although they could not straighten it and their raised arms were trembling, they still insisted on returning the salute in a non-standard posture.

"Jie Cheng, this is why I insisted on asking my soldiers to come and stand guard!"

Han Shanping patted Zhen Jiecheng on the shoulder.

"It's not for some bullshit show!"

"But respect, honor, and venerate!"
