In a small restaurant in Beiping City, Xu Wangqiu and the others discussed the filming of "Hoe Rape" while eating. The script has been written, and now everyone is discussing how to shoot it. Xu Wangqiu was very ambitious, and his idea for "Hoe Rape" was to adopt a war documentary style, with the entire film being action shots and a lot of handheld photography. This style was common in later generations, such as "Saving Private Ryan" and "The Assembly", but it was unheard of in this era.

Liu Lin: They were very surprised by this, and at the same time very excited. They realized that if they could make it, it would be an epoch-making film. They all hated that they weren't good enough to participate in the filming. However, this did not stop their enthusiasm and expressed their opinions.

Everyone enthusiastically discussed the filming of "Hoe Rape", discussed the documentary style, discussed handheld photography, and danced excitedly. Only Xie Xiaojing was silent, as if he had something on his mind, which was completely different from his usual activity.

Xu Wangqiu noticed Xie Xiaojing's abnormality and couldn't help asking, "Dean Xie, what's wrong?"

Xie Xiaojing sighed slightly, and said worriedly: "Wangqiu, you don't know, Uncle Fan Jian is the vice minister of the Ministry of Culture, and he is friends with Tang Ziqing of our school's leading group. If you start beating Fan Jian and say that he relied on his connections to get into Nortel, I'm afraid there will be trouble. ”

Xu Wangqiu suddenly understood why Fan Jian stopped him from tearing up the big-character poster, and also understood why Fan Jian did it to himself. He Skirt's report letter said that someone in the art department cheated in admissions and took care of the son of an official in the art world, and I am afraid that it was Fan Jian. Fan Jian stopped himself from tearing the poster because he posted the poster, and he was taking revenge on He Skirt. It is precisely because of this that when he said, "Who the hell doesn't know that you came in through the back door by relying on your father's relationship", Fan Jian's reaction was so big.

Xu Wangqiu also remembered one thing, when he graduated from the 78th class, He Skirt was originally from Beiping, and it stands to reason that he should stay in Beiping, but he and Zhang Yimou were assigned to the most remote Guangxi Film Studio, which is probably also the handiwork of Uncle Fan Jian.

Zhang Yimou and they were unwilling to sink, and after arriving at the Guangxi Film Factory, they worked hard and soon made the shocking "One and Eight", which is regarded as the pioneering work of the "fifth generation of films", using the themes and techniques that completely subvert traditional films, and shoot an unprecedented unique style. won a lot of praise during the internal test film, but it caused a lot of controversy when it was submitted for review, and it was constantly deleted and revised, tossed for more than a year, and finally even the ending was completely changed against the original intention before it was passed. The film was changed beyond recognition, and the reaction was cold after the release, and now it seems that Uncle Fan Jian may not be able to escape the involvement.

Xu Wangqiu realized that he might be in trouble, and when he graduated and made his own movie, Fan Jian and his family might make trouble for him! However, Xu Wangqiu didn't care, and smiled: "It's okay, what can he do to me, can he fire me?" Even if I am fired, I am not afraid, I am really going to be expelled, so I write novels every day to arrange their family, and all the things of stealing chickens and dogs, raping and killing people are all done by the family, I don't believe that they will not die." ”

When everyone heard Xu Wangqiu say this, they couldn't help laughing: "Sure enough, you can't offend anyone who offends literati!"

Xu Wangqiu picked up the cup and said, "Don't talk about these unhappy things, let's have a drink!"

Everyone took their cups and drank them all.

At noon the next day, Xu Wangqiu had just come out of the teaching building and was called to the office by Zhang Ke.

"Wangqiu, what are you asking me to say!" Zhang Ke's face was filled with black clouds of anger, and he slapped the table with a loud bang, "You think you are very capable, don't you? It's only been a few days since school started, and you dare to beat someone in public?"

In this day and age, student fights are not a thing at all. In the face of criticism, Xu Wangqiu said eloquently: "Ke Lao, we have all experienced posting big-character posters and seen wanton smearing people. There was a young lady in that building who was a few years older than me, and she was very nice and beautiful. But a few girls were jealous of her good popularity and her beauty, so they quietly posted her big-character posters, saying that she was messing with men and women and was a broken shoe. How can a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl bear this? A good girl is gone. Today they can post the big-character posters of He Skirt and Zhang Yimou, tomorrow they may post my big-character posters, and the day after tomorrow they can post the big-character posters of the old you. I don't think it really should be!"

In the movement, Zhang Ke was posted with big-character posters as a figure of the "literary and artistic black route", and he was also beaten, knowing that Xu Wangqiu's words were right, but as a teacher, as an elder, he hoped that Xu Wangqiu would study hard at school and not cause trouble, so he turned his face and scolded: "It's not right to post big-character posters, is it right to beat people? You are a student, not a hooligan, why do you want to beat people? Do you know that today a school leader said that it should be dealt with seriously!"

Xu Wangqiu knew that he would be fine, after all, Zhang Ke and Zhou Ming were old friends of the master, and it was impossible not to help him, so he made a scared look: "Ke Lao, don't scare me, I'm very timid, it's not that serious, right?"

Zhang Ke said solemnly: "The matter is not so serious, but some people want to make things bigger, do you understand?"

Xu Wangqiu knew that he was sure of Tang Ziqing, it should be his own words that stimulated him, if it was an ordinary student, maybe this matter would really be big, but he was covered by two elders, Zhang Ke and Zhou Ming, so he was naturally fine. He bowed to Zhang Ke: "I understand, thank you Ke Lao! I have already realized my mistake, I will write a check when I go back, 5,000 words, a lot of words!"

Zhang Ke heard Xu Wangqiu say this, knowing that he understood his words, and said earnestly: "You don't have to thank me, you are a student of our directing department, and we will definitely come out when it is time to stand out for students." But we will definitely not cover up those who should be criticized!" He waved his hand and said: "Go, go, go, the examination must be profound." I'll write it back and hand it over to me!"

At noon the next day, Xu Wangqiu's handling notice came down and posted it on the public notice board at the entrance of the canteen.

"The morning before yesterday, Xu Wangqiu, a student of the directing department of our school, and Fan Jian, a student of the art department, had a verbal altercation over a trivial matter, and then a physical conflict broke out. During the clashes, Fan Jian was knocked to the ground. The impact is devastating. In order to strictly discipline and educate myself and all students, after the school research, Xu Wangqiu was given a notice of punishment to the whole school. It is hoped that the majority of teachers and students will take this as a lesson and strictly abide by the rules and regulations of the school in their future study and life. ”

Xu Wangqiu didn't care about this, just criticized it, nothing was a big deal. However, Liu Lin and the others were a little indignant, saying that when they were on vacation, they would find an opportunity to pull Fan Jian out and beat him. Xu Wangqiu stopped them, and he beat Fan Jian by himself, but Liu Lin and they beat someone, if the school knew about it, it would be troublesome.

Zhang Yimou felt that Xu Wangqiu's punishment was for himself, and his inner feeling was beyond words, he didn't say anything, just grabbed Xu Wangqiu's hand and shook it vigorously, so that Xu Wangqiu's hand was pinched red.

Xu Wangqiu didn't take Fan Jian's matter to heart, and his mind was on the preparation of "Hoe Rape". The script of "The Rape" is mature, and it is time to break down the script and scout. Both of these processes require the participation of the photographer, and it is certainly not possible without the photographer. For Xu Wangqiu, the most important task at hand is to find a qualified cinematographer for the film.

If making a movie is compared to building a building, then the director is the chief designer of the building, planning for the building, what the shape of the building is, what style, how the rooms of the building are arranged, etc., are all designed by the director; while the cameraman is the chief engineer of the building, through pushing, pulling, shaking and other techniques, through the change of special, near, medium, and full scenes, through the combination of fast, slow, virtual and real lens language, the director's ideas into vivid images, and complete the construction of the "building".

Cinematographers are especially important in this day and age and are arguably the most important part of the crew, as there are no monitors now. Monitors didn't become popular until the mid-80s, and the country had to wait until the late 80s and early 90s. Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige didn't have a monitor to watch when they made movies in the early days, they all relied on their eyes to see, and they didn't use them until the 90s.

Without a monitor, the director can't see the picture, and only the photographer knows how the picture will look. It can be said that the whole film is controlled by the cinematographer, and if the cinematographer says yes, then the shot can pass, and if the cinematographer says no, it must be reshot.

The drama "Hoe Rape" is all sports shots, with a large number of handheld photography, this shooting method is extremely demanding for photographers, and no good photographer will definitely not be able to shoot the desired effect.

If the time is pushed back four or five years, Xu Wangqiu will not worry about photographers at all, Zhang Yimou and Gu Changwei are both god-level photographers, and in addition, there are also god-level photographers such as Zhao Fei and Lu Le in Class 78 of the Photography Department. Take Gu Changwei as an example, not only did he win an Oscar nomination, he worked with a god-level director like Robert Ultraman, but he can also be naked-eyed. Generally, photographers need to use a light meter to measure the lighting repeatedly, but Gu Changwei doesn't need it, just look at it with his eyes.

A cinematographer like Gu Changwei is a dream for any director. When Xu Wangqiu met Gu Changwei in the Chang'an examination room, he made up his mind to take Gu Changwei under his account and make him his royal photographer.

However, Gu Changwei and the others are all rookies now, and they haven't even practiced the basic skills yet, and they are practicing exposure control and composition processing. It takes two years of practice for this thing to be practiced before the school exposes them to the camera. Now Gu Changwei's ability is not enough, and "Hoe Rape" has extremely high requirements for photography, Xu Wangqiu can't use them, so he can only find them from school teachers.

Older teachers are definitely not good, one is an older teacher, Xu Wangqiu is more difficult to command; the other is that "Hoe Rape" is all sports shots, with a large number of handheld photography, which is very physically demanding.

Xu Wangqiu read the teacher of the photography department in his heart and set the goal on Zeng Lianping. Zeng Lianping studied in the photography department of Nortel in 76 years, and taught in the photography department after graduation, and in the future, he will serve as the photographer of films such as "Blood Morning", "Red Pink", and "Baby in Love", and is Li Shaohong's queen photographer and Li Shaohong's husband. His photographic style was more realistic in the early days, and in the later period, he pursued to shoot something "spiritual". Xu Wangqiu's requirement for "Hoe Rape" is realistic, the more realistic the picture, the better, and it is undoubtedly appropriate to use Zeng Lianping as the photographer of "Hoe Rape".

When Xu Wangqiu went downstairs to find Zeng Lianping, he met Li Shaohong at the staircase, and he smiled at Li Shaohong, thinking narrowly, classmate Shaohong, borrow your future husband!

Li Shaohong was taken aback by Xu Wangqiu's strange smile, thinking to himself what was wrong with Wangqiu, could it be that he was stimulated?

Xu Wangqiu came to the first floor of the dormitory and knocked on Zeng Lianping's door. Most of Nortel's teachers live in the city and take the bus to school every day. Young teachers like Zeng Lianping did not have a family or a house, so they lived on the first floor of the school dormitory.
