Chapter 948 944 On Campus

Chapter 948 944. On campus

Unlike Nazha who was running like crazy, Xu Xin walked slowly, and when he arrived at the acting department, there was still 1 minute before the class started.

Along the way, many students kept passing by him and heading to different classes.

Looking at their energetic appearance, Xu Xin couldn't help but sigh.

These juniors are really full of energy.

Just like himself in the past.

With some sighs, he walked to the teacher's office of the acting department.

Just as he was about to knock on the door politely, someone came out.

Xu Xin was stunned and quickly greeted:

"Director Cui. Hello~"

While greeting, he made way.

Hearing this greeting, Cui Xinqin, the director of the Department of Performance, looked up, was stunned for a moment, and smiled:

"Xiao Xu, long time no see."

"Oh, yes, it's been several years since I last saw you."

"Yes, more than a year, right?"

As she spoke, Xu Xin really couldn't remember when the two of them last met.

Graduate graduation?

Doctoral interview?

I really can't remember.

In fact, he is from the Department of Directing, and the Department of Performance should not control them. However, this is my wife's teacher, and I have also taken her basic theory class, so a respectful attitude is definitely required.

So he followed what Teacher Cui said and nodded:

"Yes, Teacher Cui, do you have classes?"

"Yes, I do. What about you? But I rarely see you going to the Performance Department."

"I'm here to find Teacher Hu Xiaoguang."

"Oh, he's in there. Teacher Hu, Xiao Xu is looking for you."

After calling into the office, she patted Xu Xin's shoulder affectionately:

"Xiao Xu, if you have nothing to do, go to the Performance Department. You haven't chosen your classes yet this year, so you can choose the teaching assistants of the Performance Department. There are several good seedlings among these children, and they are worth cultivating."

"Okay."

Xu Xin smiled and agreed.

The major classes of the Performance Department and the Directing Department basically overlap. As a teaching assistant, he has the qualification to substitute for classes, so it's okay to choose some temporary classes.

It's a favor.

If she doesn't say it, she may not choose it.

But she said that if she chooses, it depends on her favor.

The relationship was slowly established.

At this time, Hu Xiaoguang also came over.

He smiled and greeted Xu Xin:

"Director Xu."

"Hello, Teacher Hu."

"Then you guys go ahead, I'm going to class."

Seeing that people had come over, Cui Xinqin took her water cup and the lesson plan and left directly.

"Hello, Director Xu."

"Hello, Teacher Hu."

Xu Xin shook his hands with both hands in a very standard student posture.

If he were outside, his attitude might be a little "softer".

But in school, the other party is a teacher, and he is an assistant who came from a student. The tradition of respecting teachers is a virtue that cannot be lost.

Seeing his polite attitude, Hu Xiaoguang also shook his other hand.

The handshake between the two was like a victory meeting.

Then Hu Xiaoguang extended an invitation to Xu Xin to come into the office.

"Director Xu, let's go in and talk?"

"Okay."

Following the other party into the office, there were several teachers in the office.

The teaching building in the old campus of Beijing Film Academy is still quite old.

Most teachers do not have the qualifications for their own offices.

Unlike the new campus delivered this year, it is said that the facilities of that campus are very top-notch.

"Hello, teachers."

Xu Xin greeted politely.

When these teachers saw that the Golden Bear Award director was here, they were still a little surprised even though they had just heard the words.

But they didn't disturb him.

After a polite response, they were busy with their own things, but their ears were raised.

They came to Hu Xiaoguang's desk and sat down.

Xu Xin got straight to the point:

"Teacher Hu, this is the script of my next play. I would like to invite you to play the supporting role in it."

Hu Xiaoguang nodded.

In fact, he knew Xu Xin's intention from the phone call... or guessed it.

However, he was still a little surprised.

In terms of acting skills, in fact, all teachers in Beijing Film Academy are not bad.

After all, poor acting skills cannot teach students.

But sometimes, the path of an actor is actually like this.

At first glance, it is always the face.

Everyone understands the truth that Xu Xin said that acting skills will eventually lead to the same result.

But, whether the face is good or not is another prerequisite.

Acting is one thing, and fame, popularity, and status are another.

Hu Xiaoguang did not ask which male role this character was.

Over the years, he has acted in more than a hundred movies, TV series, broadcasted, unbroadcasted, etc.

But the roles are all small.

His face actually has a very low ceiling.

The heart of "making a name for oneself with acting" when he was young has long cooled down.

That's how people are.

Habit is a terrible thing.

But... the best director in Venice and the new Golden Bear director in Berlin personally invited...

This is really the first time in his career.

So, he takes it very seriously.

After putting on glasses and taking the script with both hands, he glanced at the name of the script.

"Silent Violence" - Li Shuiquan

"Is it the role of Li Shuiquan?"

"Yes. Teacher Hu, you can take a look at the story outline first, and then I will slowly tell you my understanding of this role."

"Well, okay, Director Xu, wait a moment."

Hu Xiaoguang began to read the script.

The atmosphere in the office also became quieter.

…

As a junior, Nazha, who still dominates the school beauty rankings, always attracts the attention of countless people every time she appears in the classroom.

Especially when her flower protector No. 1 Zhang Yishan is not here today.

Looking at Nazha's table with only a stainless steel thermos cup, a group of people began to feel anxious, wondering whether they should go to the canteen now, even if they were a little late, and buy a cup of coffee for Nazha to use as a hot compress...

but……

It seems that Yang Zi is not here today?

Looking at Nazha who had put all her books and notes neatly on the table, everyone thought to themselves.

Who is she messaging?

Boyfriend?

"Hurry up!"

"Teacher Cui is here."

"You speed!"

"Hurry up, I have an appointment with Brother Xu at noon, hurry up!"

After Nazha sent several messages in succession, Cui Xinqin in front of the blackboard had already opened the lesson plan. Just as she was about to speak, she heard running footsteps outside the classroom.

After the crackling, a panting Yang Zi appeared at the door.

After locking eyes with Cui Xinqin, he quickly bowed politely:

"Teacher Cui, I'm sorry, I'm late."

"Well, it's okay."

Cui Xinqin waved her hand:

"Go sit down."

Yang Zi nodded quickly, glanced at the corner of the classroom out of habit, and found his friend at a glance.

Then he quickly walked over with his schoolbag in hand.

Came to Nazha's side and sat down.

Without her opening a word, Nazha unscrewed her thermos cup.

Yang Zi picked it up and took a big sip, but immediately a mask of pain appeared on his entire face!

So bitter... so strong...

The bitter, black coffee without milk instantly sobered her up from last night's hangover.

She didn't say anything, lowered her head and started to take out the books in her schoolbag.

At this moment, with a crisp sound of plastic folding, a cereal bar was handed over.

"..."

Yang Zi was speechless for a while.

Brother, I just drank too much last night.

Can you buy me a McDonald's or something?

Black coffee with cereal bars... I can't do that.

What kind of crazy method are you using to stay in shape?

But eating something is better than eating nothing.

She took it and glanced vaguely at Cui Xinqin who was starting to call the roll. She lowered her head and took two bites, and the cereal bar went into her mouth.

It's okay, the taste isn't bad.

Seeing Nazha hand over the thermos cup again, she quickly shook her head.

No, after drinking this, I won’t have to sleep all day today.

She took out all the books and stuffed her schoolbag into the desk. Unlike Nazha's notebook, which was full of writing, there was no writing in her notebook.

"call……"

After finally catching her breath, Cui Xinqin happened to call her:

"arrive."

After shouting, she asked Nazha in a low voice:

"Why is it so painful?"

"Twice as concentrated."

"...????"

Yang Zi was surprised for a while:

"Did you get up early again?"

"Yeah. I just came back from the audition."

"Where to go?"

"Huairou."

"How's it going?"

"I don't know."

As she shook her head, Yang Zi suddenly thought of something.

Huairou is not close to here.

She can be back in time at ten o'clock... at least we have to leave at 9 o'clock.

This is under the premise that the traffic conditions are not blocked.

The morning rush hour in Yanjing is terrifying.

"What time did you get up?"

"4 o'clock. I had breakfast at 4 o'clock, practiced dancing for an hour, and set off at 5 o'clock. I was the second person to audition. I came back after the audition."

"...Is it too late?"

"Take the subway. First go to the city, and then take Line 13 back."

"..."

Hearing this, Yang Zi took a look at Nazhana, who showed no signs of edema. Both her energy and skin condition were as good as a summer afternoon. She shook her head speechlessly:

"You are really a lunatic. Can't you just ask your company to arrange it for you?"

"Being on the set is also a kind of training."

"..."

Yang Zixin said you really want to kill me.

The kind that rolls you to death.

At this time, she heard Nazha whisper:

"I'll lend you my makeup bag later. Brother Xu is at school. I made an appointment to meet him at noon."

Yang Zi was stunned. Naturally, she didn't see the news before she could look at her phone.

But he nodded quickly:

"Uh-huh."

"What do you want to eat for lunch?"

Nazha asked again.

Yang Zi was so moved.

She did not answer directly, but said:

"If you don't give up, I would like to be your adopted father..."

Nazha rolled her eyes.

Neuropathy.

She stopped talking to her roommate and started listening to the class.

…

"In other words, I have to perform a somewhat awkward hatred?"

"There will be, but not many. Li Shuiquan's eyes were indeed blinded by Zhao Di, but Zhao Di doesn't owe him anything. Because if Zhao Di didn't resist at that time, then there might be another fate waiting for Zhao Di So, there is no unforgettable hatred between the two of them, but there is some awkward hatred...

What's more, after you marry a widow, you treat your children as your own. You have sought medical treatment for your child's defects over the years, and you have learned from doctors that they are caused by unclean water sources and other effects. You help Zhaodi not because of the role of Li Shuiquan, but because of your responsibility as the father of your child.

Your generation is suffering so that your children will not suffer. And what happens to your child, as a parent, you don't want it to happen to anyone else. You have to express this feeling, and at the same time, the more complicated thing about him is that your lover hates Zhaodi because she blinded her husband in one eye. But the two children are the best playmates. Zhaodi's children are also protecting your children..."

As the two communicated, time passed slowly.

Frankly speaking, Hu Xiaoguang knew in his heart...

There are some challenges in this role.

In other words, very challenging.

Tsk…

Mingming's story is actually just a very simple story with an open ending.

But...only through communication could he realize how complicated Director Xu's requirements were for this story.

Multiple nesting.

From appearance to heart, from behavior to emotion...

Every action has a beginning and an end.

It can be said that Li Shuiquan's role is very complete.

However, as an actor, it is precisely because of the integrity of this character and the complexity behind it that he feels the challenge.

This is no ordinary role.

Especially... when he learned about the other two characters, one was the new Berlin Film Queen who was taking classes with him, and the other was Wang Yanhui, a well-known "drama tyrant" in the same circle...

A pressure fell on this veteran actor.

Quite heavy.

But... I like it very much.

After looking at the time, he took the initiative and said:

"Okay, when does Director Xu plan to start?"

"Preparations have begun. Specifically... late March, early April."

"OK."

There was no mention of remuneration at all.

Hu Xiaoguang agreed directly.

…

After inviting the three main roles, Xu Xin left the acting department.

In fact, it only took more than half an hour, which was very fast.

After coming out, he glanced at the time and went straight to Yu Zhen's office.

After arriving, I knocked on the door. After hearing the noise inside, I opened the door and walked in. I heard a voice:

"Hey? You're such a busy person, you still know that school has started?"

Xu Xin laughed sarcastically:

"Hey, look at what you said, isn't this coming?"

"Just in time, I was just looking for you."

Yu Zhen waved to him to sit down, and then took out a list from the drawer:

"Here, pick someone."

"Have you finished choosing?"

"Well, they are basically graduate students. Are you planning to host the interview this time? Or do you want to conduct a behind-the-scenes interview?"

The only difference between the two is whether there is a host in the camera.

Xu Xin shook his head directly:

"Behind the scenes, there is no need for a host. Even the camera is superfluous to me. It is best to let the group of masters record their every moment in a very natural process. Taking the time to answer a few questions, we will add the narration and copywriting That’s it.”

Upon hearing this, Yu Zhen took another thick pile of information from the drawer:

"Then I don't want this stack of information."

"This is……"

"The application form was submitted by someone from the performance department. Originally, if you wanted to choose a host, you would have chosen one from there."

"Well..."

Xu Xin took the information directly and flipped through it.

By coincidence, he saw Nazha's application form on the third copy.

This girl also applied?

His eyes moved...

said:

"Then let me pick someone myself. How about someone who asks questions behind the scenes?"

"Okay."

Yu Zhen looked indifferent:

"You are the chief director, you have the final say. When do you plan to start?"

"Let's prepare the process and copywriting first. After I finish the preparations for the film in the past two days, I will meet with these people and give a basic idea of ​​the tone of the copywriting, interview process, and theme. How is the application for research process? ? "Did the museum pass it?"

"It has been approved. Just wait for the list to be submitted and they will issue a temporary work permit."

"Okay. Then let me check the class schedule? Is the get out of class scheduled to end?"

"Are you free in the first half of the year?"

Yu Zhen was a little puzzled:

"Aren't you going to make a movie soon?"

"The movie won't take long. If it goes quickly, it will be finished in ten or twenty days. This year, Xiying has moved all the editing and post-production departments to Yanjing, so I don't have to run around. There is still time~"

"That's okay. Then we'll have the same classes as last year, and the junior and senior students will come and listen."

"I just met Director Cui and promised her to join in the fun in the acting department."

Hearing this, Yu Zhen nodded:

"That's okay. These children all admire you. If you can teach them, at least... let them understand what kind of actors are needed to be a director. That's okay... Then you can learn the basics of film directing from them. , and pull the film. How about it? "

Pulling the film is an appreciation of classic movies.

It's the kind of teacher who assigns a film for the students to watch, and everyone analyzes the acting, lens language, etc. frame by frame.

There are both directing and acting departments.

It is the most basic but also a very important lesson in this industry.

"Okay. No problem~"

Xu Xin agreed and saw a document on Yu Zhen's desk.

"APCE?" (Note 1)

"Yes."

Yu Zhen nodded and handed over the document on the table:

"Are you interested?"

"This is..."

Xu Xin looked at the project book of "APCE welcoming cultural performance" and said puzzledly:

"Did you invite?"

"Yes. One of the directors. The chief director is the head of the National Song and Dance Troupe. I am the deputy director."

"Why didn't you invite me?"

"Why invite you? A waste of talent? This is not the opening ceremony. It would be abnormal to invite you. It seems that we have no one?"

Yu Zhen shook her head with a smile:

"Besides, unless it is to invite Director Zhang, the call will not come to you. But if some activities really call you, don't refuse, do you hear me?"

"I know this."

Xu Xin naturally understood this truth.

"When will it start?"

"Next year, first build the team, come up with the program, report it layer by layer, and start recruiting actors and rehearsing after it is approved. You should have nothing to do this time. It's just an APCE, so there's no need to make a big fuss."

"Okay."

After chatting with Yu Zhen for a while, it was noon.

Xu Xin received a message from Nazha:

"Brother Xu, are you done?"

Seeing this, he replied:

"What do you want to eat? You find a place. I'll come out now."

Then he stood up:

"Then I'm leaving?"

"Who?"

Seeing that he stood up after receiving a message, Yu Zhen asked instinctively.

"Nazha, let's have lunch together at noon."

Yu Zhen was stunned...

Then frowned:

"Don't mess around, do you hear me? Whatever happens, think about your wife and children..."

"What are you thinking about?"

Xu Xin didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

But Yu Zhen shook her head firmly:

"Prevent it from happening! Did you hear me?!"

"Yes, yes, I got it."

Xu Xin smiled and nodded, stood up and walked out directly.

Then, under his command, when he walked to the employee parking area, he saw Nazha and Yang Zi standing next to the Volvo.

"Brother Xu."

"Brother Xu~"

"Well, hello."

Xu Xin smiled and nodded, unlocked the car:

"Get in the car."

After getting in the car, Nazha, who was sitting in the passenger seat, said:

"Brother Xu, there is a nourishing mutton soup restaurant next to the school. We went there last time. The taste is pretty good and the environment is good..."

Ming Ming just said that she would make the arrangements, but this time Xu Xin waved his hand:

"I'll take you two to a place to eat."

The two naturally had no objection.

While driving, Xu Xin asked:

"I saw you signed up for the documentary project at school?"

"Yeah, I don't know what I can do, but I want to try."

"What about Yang Zi?"

"I didn't. I heard from the teacher that it will be held in the second half of the year. I have a movie in the second half of the year."

"Hmm..."

Xu Xin glanced at the girl in the back seat through the rearview mirror and asked in confusion:

"Why do you look so bad?"

Yang Zi's mouth twitched...

Under Nazha's snicker, she whispered:

"I went out drinking with someone last night...drank too much."

"What did I say, is it possible? It's her fault for always saying that the mutton soup in Yanjing is unpalatable, and she even chose a mutton soup restaurant. Tsk tsk, you two are still close. "

Xu Xin smacked his lips and sighed, and said:

"Let's go to the designated reception restaurant of Xiying. You two probably haven't been there. The mutton there, as well as other things, are all from the northwest. They are very good. Yang Zi will drink more soup and add more chili. After a bowl of it, he sweated. The mutton boosted his blood and qi, and he felt clear. "

"Hmm!"

Yang Zi, who had eaten a cereal bar and very bitter black coffee for breakfast, swallowed his saliva subconsciously.

At this time, Nazha said:

"Brother Xu, there is something... I want to ask your opinion."

"Go ahead."

"I want to take the postgraduate entrance examination... to study directing."

Hearing this, Xu Xin turned his head and looked at her, then smiled and nodded:

"Okay. Then you have to study hard, it's not easy to take the postgraduate entrance examination... Does your company agree?"

"I won't delay the business."

"Okay. Then take the exam. As long as you pass, you can go directly to Teacher Yu. Come and follow me."

The girl's eyes instantly lit up with starlight.

"Yeah!"

But Xu Xin didn't see it.

Instead, he asked while driving:

"What about Yang Zi? What are your plans?"

"I'll graduate next year and hang out with Sister Mi~"

"...Haha~"

Xu Xin, amused by her funny response, shook his head:

"You... that's fine too, just forget about not taking the postgraduate entrance exam. Didn't you see that your sister won the Best Actress award even though she has no education?"

"I'll tell Sister Mi about this later."

"Hahaha~"

Amid laughter, the Volvo drove towards Qinchuan Yashe.

(Note 1: I changed EC to CE, including in subsequent activities, such as G, which may be replaced with other letters, as long as you understand what I mean.)
