Chapter 1626 The Way of the Academy of Performing Arts
? Li Mu plans to integrate the acting school into the project of the film and television base, and completely adopts Hollywood software, that is, all Hollywood talents and teaching models are used to train domestic actors.
When this acting academy develops to a certain extent, it can copy other areas of the Hollywood film industry, such as screenwriting, directing, photography, editing and so on.
However, Li Mu did not intend to complicate the school, and did not want it to assume any high-level role, so he positioned it as a private training institution, and even the certificate of completion it provided did not need to be recognized by the education department. The strength can be recognized by the film industry.
Li Mu has always felt that whether it is the Yanjing Film Academy, the Central Academy of Drama, or the Shanghai Academy of Drama, these so-called authoritative academies in the Chinese film industry, the success rate of the actors trained by them is not high, which is not only related to the exaggerated performing arts industry , but also related to the entire actor training system.
Acting is a skill, not a subject. Therefore, the most important thing for schools is to teach this skill to their students. Before the skill itself is well educated, everything else is meaningless.
Just like an English training institution like New Oriental, the real meaning of its existence is to let students truly master the language skills of English, rather than to let students take a certificate issued by some institution.
In fact, in Li Mu's eyes, there are many actors in the Huaxia film and television industry who have diplomas and no skills. Just like learning English, they can easily get a CET-6 certificate. As a result, they met a foreigner with a bald mouth and a normal pronunciation. I can't even tell, how can such a person be a good actor?
That's why he put skills training first. Even if the certificate of completion from this school is not recognized by the education department, it doesn't matter. For filming, whether the education department admits it or not doesn't make much sense.
When Hong Kong TVB and TVB recruited new students, they only looked at the external image and acting skills, so they would have a friend like Tony Leung to audition for the audition. As a result, when he was selected, he could only devote himself to the training and teaching of acting skills. to develop good actors.
Besides, Li Mu himself has the support of Muye Imaging, and he has a huge film and television base project. In the future, the students trained by this school will not have to worry about having no movies to shoot.
Li Mu discussed with Spielberg in detail, and started to open up the subject of performing arts training, but it had to be divided into two sets of academic systems.
A two-year school system, this school system is basically based on the method and rhythm of Hollywood group performance training. In two years, ordinary actors who have passed the stage of acting skills are trained. However, even for group performances, after two years of systematic training, The acting is also enough.
Another set is a four-year school system.
This school system will carry out more in-depth performance training, so that actors can master more in-depth acting skills, at least they can be competent for the main roles of ordinary TV series and movies.
The four-year educational system is the same as the undergraduate class of the Film Academy, but all courses other than acting will be abandoned, so that students can devote themselves to the training of acting skills. Excellent actor.
Spielberg worked in Huaxia during this time, and he also learned something about the Huaxia film and television industry. He asked Li Mu: "How will the school recruit students? I feel that with the current national economic situation of Huaxia, it seems that we can spend money to participate in a There are relatively few people in the four-year training course.”
Li Mu said: "This is natural. For many young people, they have an urgent desire for the film school, not only because the film school has a strong halo effect, but also because the film school itself is an institution of higher learning recognized by the education department. At least they can get a bachelor’s degree, and it is indeed difficult for them to give up this goal and directly participate in four-year skills training.”
Speaking of this, Li Mu changed his words and said, "However, it all depends on what the Libra end is. If the Libra end only has improved acting skills, and the Libra end is four years and four years of tuition. As well as giving up a degree, I guess many people are afraid to take this step, so we can prepare both hands.”
"First-hand preparation is a perfect scholarship system. At that time, we will not have cultural class exams, only acting classes. As long as the acting class can be passed, we will position him as our recruitable target. At the same time, according to his performance exam scores, We can provide him with multiple grades of scholarship incentives. For excellent ones, the scholarship can cover all tuition and miscellaneous expenses; for better ones, the scholarship exempts most of the tuition and miscellaneous expenses; for the good ones, half or a small part of the tuition and miscellaneous expenses are exempted; "
"Second-hand preparation is the pre-signing system for actors and artists. All students who pass the performance exam can sign contracts with Makino Imaging in advance and become Makino Imaging's contracted artists. The brokerage contract begins when he enters the school. A total of six years, You can choose between eight years and ten years. After signing with us, we will cover all their tuition and miscellaneous expenses, and excellent artists can even be given a certain salary package, so that they can get their salary from the day they signed the contract.”
After speaking, Li Mu paused for a while, and then continued: "Apart from these two types of people, the rest is willing to fight and suffer. If he really wants to practice his acting skills, and he doesn't need a diploma recognized by the education department, then Come to our school."
"In addition, although our school cannot provide a diploma recognized by the education department, we have strong promotion resources, which means that we will have a strong ability to make stars in the future, which is very attractive to many young people. of."
Spielberg nodded and said: "As long as this school can form a certain scale and steadily send one or two hundred actors with real acting skills to the Chinese film and television industry every year in a few years, then the change to the film and television industry will be very important. far-reaching."
Speaking, Spielberg gave an example: "Aren't you always dissatisfied with the acting skills of Huaxia Qun's performance? I don't think this situation is difficult to change."
"Although there are a lot of extras in Hollywood, those who really often appear in film and television dramas are usually only a few hundred to a thousand people, but these hundreds of people are all capable of playing roles with certain lines and exposure, but on average, There are only a dozen or two dozen such actors that can be used in a play, and everyone has a different look in each play, so these people are enough to meet the needs of Hollywood. We The top priority is to cultivate a group of such actors first. Like other industries, the film and television industry is most afraid that everyone will be rotten together, then it will be completely useless, but as long as there is one that is not rotten, and it is getting better and better, the others People will also try their best to move up.”
Li Mu said in agreement: "This is also the result I expect. Once people in this industry work hard, and more and more people start to work hard, the industry will definitely get better and better."
Spielberg asked: "Has the film and television base project started now?"
Li Mu said: "We are making preparations before the start of construction. If it is fast, it will be fully launched before the end of this year."
Spielberg added: "In that case, I'm afraid it will take a long time to wait for the school to be completed, right?"
Li Mu said: "After I go back this time, I will first go to the site selection, and then I will come up with a plan as soon as possible, and the plan will be included in the first phase of the project. Rent a suitable place."
Spielberg nodded: "I'll let you send the details."
...
After Li Mu and Spielberg finalized the details of the acting school, there were countless topics about "Flying Tigers" on the Internet, and the on-site reporters sent by Muye Technology also began to publish their own exclusive news, among which are about News of the dog, the corgi given by the Queen.
Since the reporters of Muye Technology tracked and recorded the whole process, they have detailed video data, including a series of photos of Li Mu taking the dog to the airport, boarding the plane, flying, and taking it to the ground.
The reporter team immediately sent these photos back to the headquarters, and the editors at the headquarters immediately began to select dozens of satisfactory photos from hundreds of photos, and then began to publish these photos on Weibo one after another.
The editorial team of Muye Technology directly published the version in both Chinese and English, which probably means that Li Mu went to Yun Province today to visit the "Flying Tigers" crew, and deliberately brought the corgi given to him by the Queen of England.
With the photos of Li Mu and Gouzi, this news quickly became popular on the Internet. On Weibo and Twitter, the popularity rose very fast, and it was almost the best among a lot of related topics.
Just like the story of the son of the richest man in the future and his sled dog, as long as people travel with the dog, it will definitely make hot news. Although Li Mu doesn't know if there is a behind-the-scenes driving force, it is undeniable that as an ordinary netizen , There is indeed a little extra attention to the dog raised by the richest man's son.
An ordinary sled dog can still create a hot topic, the corgi presented by the queen to Li Mu, just this relationship chain is enough to create a hot topic.
People all over the world have paid attention to Li Mu and his corgi. In a short period of time, even the dog has a strong enough fan base.
Among them, British netizens were most interested in this Titter. They thought that the dog that Li Mu was leading was given by his own queen, and that Li Mu also took it with him when he attended public events, which is enough to prove how much Li Mu attaches to this dog and the royal family. This has a different kind of intimacy for British netizens.
For a time, the British royal family also became a hot topic. People began to discuss the queen, the dog the queen raised, and the entire Windsor family.
