I was just thinking about taking the arts exam and you said I've been playing supporting roles

Chapter 164: Drag Zhang Yimou into the water!
The campus of Hunan First Normal University.

Li Xi hugged Li Xuejian, glanced at Chen Jin beside her, and took a breath like a little girl.

Li Xuejian hurriedly introduced them to the two of them.

Li Xi then blinked and looked at Chen Jin in front of her with curiosity. Her eyes were very clear. Chen Jin bowed towards her with a smile on his face. He did not think much about his teacher's daughter.

However, Xiao Yang had heard about this student of his father for a long time.

She was looking at Chen Jin the whole time, and the camera was focused on Li Xi.

Suddenly, she walked towards Chen Jin with a smile on her face, but Chen Jin looked at her in confusion.

"Brother, you are so tall!"

A white hand suddenly stretched out. She first touched her head, then stretched it in front of Chen Jin to gesture.

"..."

Chen Jin smiled slightly and couldn't help but look at the woman in front of him a few more times.

Li Yan raised his head, his long eyelashes flickering, looking at Chen Jin's face. He paused for less than a second, then Li Yan seemed a little shy and hurriedly said, "Dad, I'm going to play!"

She twisted her body and quickly disappeared from the camera.

"Pass!"

Han Sanpin finally smiled, and Li Xi, who had just walked out of the camera, couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

pass!

It actually passed?

Li Wei turned around in disbelief and looked at Chen Jin who had not yet left the set.

She recalled the process that Chen Jin had told her over and over again. It was like brainwashing, starting with a slight glance at the beginning and then taking a deep breath... these were all taught to her by Chen Jin.

Of course, Han Sanpin couldn't explain it in such detail. He didn't have the patience to do so.

Chen Jin, however, replayed the scene of their meeting in his mind like Li Qi had reviewed it, breaking it down action by action.

Including a change in expression.

It’s okay if you can’t act doubt and curiosity, there are techniques, such as eyebrows; if you are curious, stare closely and open your eyes slightly wider... After teaching Li Qi for about 10 minutes, Chen Jin pulled Li Xuejian over, and the three of them simulated it several times.

Then, it is the effect above.

There is a prerequisite here, Li Xuejian has to help, not all actors are willing to cooperate with newcomers.

"You young people still have a common language!"

Han Sanpin didn't ask Chen Jin how he made Li Qi change so much, he just needed to see the result.

But it is obvious that Chen Jin not only knows how to perform himself, but he also knows how to teach others how to perform. This guy is really talented.

"You guys should communicate more!"

Han Sanpin is just like Zhang Yimou back then, and wants Chen Jin to take care of Li Qi more.

The two actors will not have roles in Hunan, but there are still many scenes in the capital.

Although there are no intimate scenes, there is still emotional advancement.

"Okay, Master San!"

Li Wei hurriedly agreed, and it was time for lunch break.

"My great benefactor, I'll treat you to a meal!"

Li Xi said to Chen Jin happily, but Chen Jin sat there like a big boss and waved his hand: "I don't want to eat the box lunch!"

"I'm going to treat you to a feast. Do you want fruit and milk tea?"

This can be done.

Chen Jin was moved when he heard it, but he stretched out his hand: "10 tons!"

"10 meals is 10 meals!"

Li Wei was very happy.

"Teach once, 10 times!"

Li Qi suddenly became unhappy. From now on, he would have to shoot at least a dozen scenes with Chen Jin. Wouldn't that mean he would owe more than 100 meals?

But after thinking about it, Li Xi gritted his teeth.

It’s just over a hundred yuan, and a meal of 100 yuan is only about or yuan, so you can afford it yourself.

Besides, her agent had repeatedly told her to get along well with Chen Jin over the phone, so wouldn't the relationship have come? !

"make a deal!"

Li Wei said loudly and ran out to buy food.

Of course Chen Jin wouldn't go with them.

After a while, Little Leo appeared in front of Chen Jin carrying a lot of bags. They were all specialties from Hunan, including fruits and coco milk tea. At that time, Cha Yan Yue Se, the leader of Changsha milk tea, had not yet been born.

"I'll go give one to Teacher Li!"

Li Xi walked towards Li Xuejian.

Chen Jin opened a few takeaway bags and prepared to eat.

"..."

It was indeed a feast, but I couldn’t eat any of it. Chen Jin doesn’t eat spicy food, and every dish was spicy.

"It's better to eat a box lunch!"

Chen Jin was complaining, Li Wei walked back and saw Chen Jin's sad face, and couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong, Teacher Chen?"

"Stop!"

Chen Jin hurriedly said, "That's not a good name!"

What teacher Chen? I haven’t learned photography yet.

"Haha, sorry!"

Li Wei also obviously reacted.

It’s only been two years since this incident, but Mr. Chen’s jokes are still very popular.

"Then what should I call you? Teacher Jin?"

After saying this, Li Xi's face turned red and looked a little dirty.

Teacher Jin is more famous.

In 2010, Jin Ye was much more famous than the future short and big Jin.

"Can't you just call me by my name normally?"

Chen Jin pointed at the dishes in front of him and said, "Don't tell me that you people from Kunshan eat spicy food now?"

"Hey, girls like spicy food!"

Li Xi smiled and took a bite of food, but suddenly came to his senses: "Ah, you don't eat spicy food?"

"I'm sorry, I really don't know, I thought--"

"So you and I are definitely not from the same place!"

Chen Jin took a mouthful of rice. It’s not that he couldn’t eat spicy food, but he just couldn’t eat too much.

"No, I'm definitely from the same place as you!"

"I thought you'd been in the capital for so long, you should be able to handle something spicy, right?"

"The Imperial City is not spicy!"

"It's not bad, there are all kinds of cuisines..."

Li Xi was eating while chatting with Chen Jin. Actually, she couldn't eat too much spicy food, but she just liked it. After a while, it was so spicy that she kept sticking out her tongue.

Chen Jin is better than her because he is reserved. Even if he knows he can't eat, he will definitely eat less.

"Oh, it's so spicy!"

"This Hunan cuisine is much spicier than the ones in the capital!"

The spiciness was so spicy that tears came out, which was enough to prove that the dish was really spicy.

"Deserve it!"

Chen Jin finished eating and wiped his mouth.

Looking at Li Xi, whose head was sweating and whose face was red, he felt like a monkey's butt.

"Take a sip and it won't be spicy anymore!"

Chen Jin handed her the milk tea, and Li Wei quickly took it and took two quick gulps.

But this drink is not good, it tastes even spicier.

Chen Jin actually did it on purpose. He was fine because he didn't eat spicy food much. "No, I...I need to slow down!"

Li Xi's food is really spicy. It's a vegetable that I love to eat, but now my throat is burning.

“This meal doesn’t count!”

"Because I didn't feel well after eating it!"

Chen Jin was still rubbing salt into Li Xu's wounds. Li Xu almost spit out a breath of anger. This guy was going too far.

I treated him to a meal with good intentions, bought him milk tea and some fruit, and he said he felt uncomfortable after eating?

I haven’t seen him eat less!
"Not convinced?"

Chen Jin took a bite of watermelon, spit out the seeds, looked at Li Yan's expression, and said leisurely, "Then I won't teach you anymore!"

"Hey, hey, hey!"

Li Xi was convinced this time: "No, Mr. Chen... Oh, no, Brother Jin~~"

"I'm not unconvinced. I am convinced. Whatever you say is what it is!"

"That's pretty much it!"

Chen Jin burped and felt that it was good to have a female student.

"Night, continue!"

Chen Jin said this and stood up to take a nap. Li Wei looked at his back and couldn't help but make a grimace.

Of course Chen Jin couldn't see it.

Otherwise, I will inevitably have to diss her again.

Li 喪, I've got you in my arms.

Even Jesus can’t keep it, I said!

……

Chen Jin obviously spent the next two days on the set, and Li Wei did a good job of feeding her.

Teacher Chen lives a very carefree life.

This female student really got what she paid.

At this time, a crucial screening was taking place in the small screening room of Beijing Film Academy.

Teachers from the Directing Department and Management Department of Beijing Film Academy, including Zhang Huijun and Zhang Yimou, all sat in the theater to watch Guo Xun’s debut film, Love Is Not Blind!
After returning, Lao Guo began to carry out Chen Jin's task. With Chen Jin's invitation, he found Zhang Huijun and told him that he wanted Lao Mouzi to be the producer.

Zhang Huijun was obviously in a difficult situation.

But Guo Xun used both reason and emotion to persuade him, and even spoke out what Chen Jin had said.

"Director Zhang, if this movie is successful, it means that the movie model starring Chen Jin can be replicated!"

"Beijing Film Academy will produce many student directors..."

Zhang Huijun was really moved.

Although he knew that this was unrealistic, the students still focused on making short films to win awards.

But...what if?!

Students from the directing department of Beijing Film Academy cannot afford to pay famous graduates of Beijing Film Academy for their works, so they can only gain experience by making short films.

But don’t they want to make feature films or theatrical movies to make money and become famous?
It’s all because of the pressure of life and lack of funds, otherwise which student would want to make a short film!
I definitely want to try cinema movies.

This is the goal of almost every student in the directing department of Beijing Film Academy.

But the number of students who become directors among students in school cannot be described as very few, but rather... there are none at all.

Guo Xun is the first one now.

Moreover, many directors had no fame at all before the age of 30. There is no history of student directors who made theatrical films around the age of 30 in the Beijing Film Academy.

But now, Chen Jin is different.

This guy will invest and buy the script himself, and the students from the directing department only need to shoot it.

This is much more reliable than directing students writing their own scripts and shooting the films themselves.

Zhang Huijun didn’t know why Chen Jin did this. Why not find some well-known directors to shoot together? Why find students?

But now is not the time to think about this. Zhang Huijun has only one goal in his mind.

If Guo Xun's film is a success, it will be another great honor for Beijing Film Academy.

The movie directed by the students in school has a box office of XXXX.

The spring of the directing department is about to come. The directing department of the neighboring Central Academy of Drama has also been making great efforts and has produced several young directors. The Beijing Film Academy is about to be surpassed.

That's why Zhang Huijun used all kinds of tricks to persuade Zhang Yimou to come here.

He hasn't said anything about being a nominal producer yet. We'll have to wait until Zhang Yimou finishes watching the movie.

"How is it, teachers, dean, and Director Zhang?"

After watching the movie, Guo Xun hurriedly asked everyone present.

“Not a bad shot!”

"It's quite complete, but it's hard for a film like this to win an award. Let's wait and see. The plot is okay!"

Tian Zhuangzhuang was talking, and Zheng Dongtian nodded: "Almost the same, Director Tian and I agree!"

Winning an award?

Guo Xun never thought about winning the award, he just wanted to make money!
Several other teachers expressed their opinions. They were actually not optimistic about the film, but since it was a student work, of course they encouraged it.

If a big director made a movie like this, they would definitely criticize it, but since it is a student's work, it is understandable.

On the contrary, they felt that a student's debut film, shot like this, must be one of the most amazing and talented.

"Yimou, you have made commercial films before, what can you tell me about it?"

Zhang Huijun had actually just finished watching "Love Is Not Blind" and felt a little unsure.

He majored in photography, so of course he could identify the artistic quality of a film, but the film before him clearly did not have that.

It only contains some popular youth elements nowadays, and young people may like to watch this kind of film.

But young people...their ability to consume is undoubtedly weak.

"It's OK, I think it's good!"

"It's quite fun to watch..."

"Both the male and female leads performed very well. This actress is good!"

He was aware of Chen Jin's acting ability, but Wan Qian was quite beyond Zhang Yimou's expectations.

"It's beyond my expectation that Xiao Guo's first film would turn out like this!"

Zhang Yimou smiled and affirmed Guo Xun's ability.

"..."

Zhang Huijun immediately exchanged glances with Guo Xun and asked, "When this movie is released, do you think it will be a box office success?"

“It will definitely be a hit at the box office!”

"More or less a problem!"

"But Chen Jin's fame has just risen. Although he is still popular, he may not be able to carry the box office!"

This is true.

It was precisely because of this that Guo Xun and Chen Jin dragged Zhang Yimou into the water.

"Okay, let's do this for now!"

Zhang Huijun was talking to the teachers and Guo Xun, but his eyes were on Zhang Yimou: "Yimou, come to my office and sit down?"

"Okay!"

Zhang Yimou also felt that Zhang Huijun wanted to talk to him about something.

But obviously no one would have thought that he would be appointed as a producer!
Moreover, this kind of thing cannot be discussed openly and must be discussed privately in the office!

"Dean Zhang, please give us some strength!"

Only after Guo Xun and other teachers and Zhang Huijun left did he couldn't help but smile.

Now the success or failure of the matter lies in Zhang Huijun's hands.

"I have to report to Brother Jin!"

"Dean Zhang may not be enough alone. As a last resort, Brother Jin has to take action!"

It has to be said that Guo Xun was still cautious.
