Director’s Legend

Chapter 35: 【go to school】

Nortel has many beautiful boys and girls, and many high-end cars stop at the school gate to pick up these beautiful girls. The four Zhongyue Xiaojun are in the middle of the show. Huang Bo and Ning Hao are from Nortel, and they are very familiar with Nortel. Only Shao Shuaijun is curious about Nortel.

However, after walking around, Shao Shuaijun discovered that the legendary university is not mysterious, the building is no better than the buildings in other places, and the scenery is just average. The students who come and go are not strange except that they are more handsome and beautiful. , Come and go like carrying a bag.

Finally, the four people sat down by the pyramid next to the main teaching building, idle and bored to say something.

"How did you get a pyramid from Nortel, which is awkward?" Shao Shuaijun asked. This pyramid is built of stones, and it is as tall as a person.

Huang Bo shook his head: "The ghost knows what the school thinks."

"Maybe it tells us that making a movie requires a collective, and the tipped top is naturally easy to attract attention, but we can't ignore how many people are needed to fill the foundation of the tower." Ning Hao analyzed.

"Bullshit, why don't I know?"

Ning Hao smiled and said, "You don't know much, do you know the Pyramid Award?"

"what?"

"I don’t know, more than ten years ago, Nortel offered an academy award called the Pyramid Award to select the best alumni filming that year. This award was voted by students from each department, fair and open, with the names of the winners and The movie was engraved on the medal and placed in the pyramid, and then it was nothing. I saw it, it was inside the door. I can’t remember what movie was in the previous few years. When the vote was held in 1993, everyone voted for it. With Chen Kai’s "Farewell My Concubine", this is actually not controversial. The position of this film lies here. However, the reason why the award is no longer held is because of this film."

"What's the reason?"

"At that time, I had to report the award. I saw that it was very uncomfortable, and it became a big fire, saying how can this movie be the best? It also has a special period and has a **** relationship, which is very bad for the reputation of the motherland. Say nothing. I was elected to be the best, so the school had to do student work, and other departments had to choose another film. I can’t remember what film. Only the director department chose Chen Kai or "Farewell My Concubine". The school held meetings and talked about it. The reason is that he did work again, but Chen Kai still voted... Later, the award was cancelled, and the door has never been opened."

After Ning Hao finished speaking, he sighed.

Shao Shuaijun also said with emotion: "Chinese filmmakers, Chinese directors, as long as they don’t lose their backbone, Chinese films will finally have a day to rise." But I was thinking in my heart that Chen Kai made "Farewell My Concubine", but he did it this year. "Promise", will you feel blush when you see this pyramid in the future?

While talking, a shout came from a distance: "Ning Hao?"

Ning Hao looked up and stood up quickly: "Professor Wang, you just finished class?"

The visitor was Wang Hongwei, an associate professor in Nortel’s Director Department. Shao Shuaijun saw it naturally and quickly stood up: "Professor Wang, it’s been a long time since I saw you, how are you doing?"

"Hey, Shao Shuaijun, are you here? Congratulations, the movie is a big hit, with a box office of more than 100 million yuan, which is great! Huang Bo, Yue Xiaojun, are you all here?" Wang Hongwei was very energetic. It’s also a coincidence that Wang Hongwei and Shao Shuaijun met in the crew of "Crazy Stone", and they are more familiar with Ning Hao. The film "Green Grass" that Ning Hao just finished was also the literary director of Wang Hongwei. .

Speaking of which, Wang Hongwei can be regarded as Ning Hao's mentor.

"Why did you guys get together? Oh, yes, I almost forgot. The news said that Shao Shuaijun has a new play that you have to direct it to Ning Hao. How about it? Today is Nortel looking for an actor?"

"No, it's mainly because I haven't studied in college, so let them take me in and take a look."

Wang Hongwei's eyes lit up and he looked up and down Shao Shuaijun: "You haven't studied at university, right? Tsk tsk, why don't you come to Nortel to study? With your current grades, you will be specially recruited into the director's class. There is no problem. How about it? Don’t come to Nortel for further study and recharge yourself? I will approve the procedures for you myself!"

Special move? Further education?

There was a moment of excitement in Shao Shuaijun's heart. Entering a university to study a director course was his biggest dream in his life. If possible, Shao Shuaijun would certainly want to realize this dream. He didn't have the chance before, but now he will become famous. It shouldn't be difficult to come in again. But as soon as the promise reached his lips, Shao Shuaijun swallowed again.

He understands that the reason for his success is that he knows many good movies in the next nine years. These films can only be regarded as his capital if he shoots them first, and it is not worth it to waste these precious time for studying. Shaking his head, Shao Shuaijun could only sigh, "Professor Wang, thank you for your kindness, I'm afraid it won't work. I have already decided on the filming plan now, and I don't have time to go to school."

"What's the matter? Nortel is a very open university. You don't need to go to school in a step-by-step manner. You only need to take time to study at school for one or two occasions. You don't need to delay filming. To be honest, Shao Shuaijun, you are still young and don't need it. I am anxious to engage in commercial filming. Only by sinking my heart and polishing out the director's skills can we make a steady stream of good movies."

Shao Shuaijun was moved.

There is no need to waste time, as long as you take the time to learn, it will not delay him making movies.

Moreover, what Wang Hongwei said is right. Only when the director's skills are trained can he be truly invincible. His current level of directorship is groping on his own, not bad. But compared to directors who came from a discipline, there are many flaws in many details.

The future of movies is the 3D era, the digital era, and the I-MAX era. These are all high-tech, and traditional directing methods cannot produce such a movie.

If you don't study, you are destined to fall behind.

Once the nine years of foresight is lost, Shao Shuaijun can't guarantee that he will continue to succeed. Then, solid himself and apply what he has learned is the best plan.

"Professor Wang, I want to know, does Nortel offer some pioneering technology learning content? For example, 3D, digital film and I-MAX projection system?"

"Not yet, but our school has a cooperative relationship with many foreign film institutions. In these high-tech, it is definitely the most advanced in the country."

"Then, I am willing to study in Rudian." Shao Shuaijun agreed. He is not a genius. Daydreaming can make a good movie. He can only study.

"Haha, okay, give me a contact information, and I'll go through the admission procedures for you." Wang Hongwei was impatient, and took the four Shao Shuaijun to the director's office. The head of the department, Wang Rui, naturally knew about Shao Shuaijun, and he agreed to Shao Shuaijun's admission application without saying a word.

Most people who want to enter Nortel can be busy with the formalities of running the relationship for half a year. For famous figures, such as big stars and athletes, Nortel begs them to study. This is the situation for Shao Shuaijun. The school welcomes him to Nortel with twelve points of enthusiasm to expand the school's reputation.
