Li Qian was a little confused. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
However, when he stepped into the door, he still said, "Teacher Lu is good, Teacher Chen is good." ”
Lu Lingxi teaches professional courses, only for the Department of Photography, the Department of Directing, the Department of Production, and the Department of Fine Arts, while Chen Kefang teaches the foundation of screenwriting but is a public course for the whole school, so they are both Li Qian's teachers.
Li Qian said hello, Chen Kefang still couldn't stop laughing, Lu Lingxi was better, he forced himself to stop laughing, and pushed Chen Kefang, "Okay, don't laugh." Then he hurriedly explained to Li Qian, "We just happened to talk about a joke, as soon as you pushed the door in, we couldn't help laughing, but it wasn't aimed at you!
Li Qian smiled, pulled a chair in front of her desk and sat down, and asked curiously, "What kind of joke, can you tell me about it?"
Without waiting for Lu Lingxi to answer, Chen Kefang still had a smile on his face, but he said at that time: "Do you want to listen to women's private words?"
Of course, it's not easy to inquire about this, so Li Qian smiled and didn't take a stubble.
At this time, Lu Lingxi had basically cleaned up his mood, and asked in a brisk tone: "Your daughter-in-law is shooting in the back, are you here to pick her up?"
"Huh?" This time it was Li Qian's turn to be stunned for a moment, and then he quickly shook his head, "No." I really didn't know that they were going to come over to shoot today, and I explained her MV shooting to Sun Yuting and Lao Lu Lubin, I didn't ask. ”
As soon as Li Qian said this, Lu Lingxi couldn't help but ask: "So, are you here for something else?" After the New Year, I have seen it once, you are a student, but you are not qualified! Don't tell me that you are here to ask for leave again! I can't approve it to you again this time!"
Li Qian smiled, "Then I'll go back and wait for the holiday to come, and then I'll come back for two days and ask for leave." ”
Chen Kefang laughed when he heard this, Lu Lingxi shook his head helplessly, glared at Li Qian, pointed at him, and said, "Have you ever seen such a student?
Chen Kefang didn't take her stubble, she still smiled, so she threw a look at Lu Lingxi, and deliberately glanced at the script in Lu Lingxi's hand, signaling not to forget what she had entrusted, and then stood up and said: "Don't be in the blessing and don't know the blessing, how good our Li Qian is! Li Qian, if you Director Lu don't want you, say hello to Teacher Chen, I will help you transfer your student status to our screenwriting department, please ask for leave, it's okay to graduate, no one will card you, how about it?"
Li Qian smiled, and when he saw that Chen Kefang seemed to be leaving, he also stood up and said with a smile: "Okay, then it's decided, Teacher Lu is not allowed to take a vacation, I'll look for you!"
Chen Kefang smiled again, then waved his hand, and said, "You sit down, you teachers and students can talk, I still have something to do, I have to leave first." ”
Hearing this, Li Qian hurriedly said: "Don't, it just so happens that Mr. Chen is also here, but it saves me business, what about me, I came here this time because I want to trouble you two teachers." ”
Chen Kefang turned his head and glanced at Lu Lingxi, and said strangely: "Yo, this is rare, do you still need our help?" While speaking, seeing that Li Qian seemed to have something really wrong, not a false politeness, he turned around and sat down, "Then you talk about it, I'll see if I can help! You are such a big boss, you are still a great talent, you want to find someone to help, I guess I can't do it!"
Li Qian smiled, turned around and sat down, and said: "Since I am looking for you, it must be something that you can do! That's the case, isn't our 96th class about to graduate, plus there are 95th and 94th grades in front of us, all of them have already graduated, and the 97th class is also a junior." As for me, although I have some contact with the students in the screenwriting department, I definitely don't know as much as Mr. Lu and Mr. Chen, so I would like to ask you to help recommend a few students who have a good level of screenwriting! It doesn't have to be level 96, level 95, level 94, level 97 is fine, as long as I can afford the kind I can ......."
As soon as Li Qian revealed his intention to ask them to help recommend a few screenwriting students, Chen Kefang's eyes lit up at that time, and he glanced at Lu Lingxi, both of them were a little surprised-this is really what they want to do, just said that they were going to find Li Qian to push a script, but before they could speak, Li Qian himself found it.
After Li Qian finished speaking, Chen Kefang asked at that time: "Your company wants to recruit people?"
Li Qian admitted frankly, "Yes, I just started and am building a shelf." I know the photography department well, and the director department is also familiar, so I started it myself, but the screenwriting department is a little less familiar, and I hope the two teachers will recommend it and check it. ”
Chen Kefang was sure in his heart, and asked again: "How many recruits, are you going to cultivate for a long time, or are you just giving some odd jobs?"
Li Qian looked at Chen Kefang with a smile, and he was not surprised at all by her posture.
Shuntian Film Academy has a glorious status, and has always been known as a palace-level institution in the domestic film industry, Huaxia Drama Academy and Shanghai Theater Academy and other institutions, although the teaching strength is also quite strong, and the talents are also doubled, but compared with the film academy, the innate force and actual strength are more than a step behind.
But status is status, no matter how powerful Suncheon Film Academy is, students have to rely on their own ability to find a job after graduation, the so-called "academic school" is an internal group, and the senior brother and the junior brother must take care of the younger brother to a certain extent, but it has to be you, the junior brother, who is worth promoting, so in the final analysis, it still depends on personal ability.
And the problem is that if it is not talented, or it is simply a masterpiece that already has a certain level during school, for the vast majority of the crew, as long as there are suitable talents available, who wants to easily use a newcomer who has just graduated from college?
You think that you have graduated from college and become a teacher, and you are full of knowledge, but in fact, when you really enter the crew, you will find that most of what you learn is just theoretical knowledge, and if you want to really practice some skills, it is not enough to study in school for four years.
Actors can say that they can play tricks if they can't be the leading actors, after a scene is filmed, there are more actors needed, and actors who graduated from film schools, as long as they are not so pretentious and willing to start from small roles, they can always get some small roles with leftovers, and they are waiting for their own opportunities while making progress through experience.
But what about the screenwriter, what about the director, and what about the cinematography?
A play may require as many as thirty or fifty hundreds, or as few as one or twenty actors, but only a few screenwriters do they need? How many directors and assistant directors or even assistant directors do they need? What about photography? Digital photography has just begun to become popular in these years, and China is still mainly based on film shooting, in fact, the United States is still mainly based on film, and digital is still only a niche, so film is so expensive, how many producers and directors are willing to use it to let students like Fu Xuelong practice like Li Qian?
So the result is, not to mention the Shuntian Film Academy, including Huaxia Drama Academy, Shanghai Theater Academy and other institutions, as long as you graduate from the acting department, as long as you don't pick a play, you can take the job, in the current country, many students have not graduated, and they can almost earn their own money to support themselves.
However, the students of the director, screenwriter and photography department often have to be thrown into the market for many years, and their perseverance and ability have been honed.
Especially in the past two years, the film market has continued to decline, and the form of the industry has always been tight.
It is precisely for this reason that as teachers, whether it is Lu Lingxi or Chen Kefang, when they are aware of the employment problems of students, of course, they hope to do their best to push students out.
After all, you can't expect every student to be Lu Ping, let alone every student to be Li Qian.
At this time, Li Qian patiently explained to Chen Kefang: "Our company's plan is to produce one or two TV series every year in the future, and in the long run, we will invest in one or two movies every year in the future, so we need to have a group of screenwriters to enrich it, so I remembered our screenwriting department, after all, we were born in a film school, and our basic skills are solid, and the standard is not much worse." ”
After a pause, he added: "However, when I recruit screenwriters, the requirements are slightly different from other companies, and I will also encourage them to write their own scripts, requiring them to submit at least one script every year, and it must be reviewed before it is counted, but to a greater extent, they are actually required to fill in the story according to my outline." As for the number of people, I don't dare to recruit more at present, for fear that I can't afford to raise it, so it's okay to have about five people for the time being. ”
Chen Kefang slapped her thigh excitedly when she heard this, "Five people, no problem!"
Five people, it doesn't sound like much, but everyone in the film school knows that the screenwriting department is called "department", but it is said that the year that recruits the most students in history only recruits 27 students, basically, the enrollment is "big year", that is, in the early twenties, catching up with the "small year", the school thinks that the quality of students is not very high, and it may even be compressed to about fifteen places, like Li Qian, they are 96 level, and there are only 17 students in the screenwriting department.
In other words, Li Qian's mouth directly removed more than a quarter of the graduates from the screenwriting department!
Li Qian was afraid that Chen Kefang would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained, "Teacher Chen, don't get excited, our preset goal is to recruit five people, but it doesn't mean that we have to recruit five! If the level is high, it's okay to have one or two more, but if the level is a little worse, it's still ...... Hehe, it's better to have a lack than an abundance!"
Chen Kefang almost glared when she heard this, "The students of our academy, I taught it by myself, so can it be worse?" As she spoke, she remembered the script, reached out and took it from Lu Lingxi's hand, and handed it over, "Look, you 96-level Shi Kuiyong, do you know him?"
Of course Shi Kuiyong and Li Qian know each other, and they are quite familiar.
Taking the script by chance, Li Qian only turned two pages, and then handed the script back with a smile, saying: "I have read this book, Kui Yong just wrote it, I have read it, it is a good book." ”
Chen Kefang was stunned when she heard this, turned her head and glanced at Lu Lingxi, both of them were a little surprised in their eyes.
Because Li Qian behaved too calmly.
See what that means...... Can't afford it?
This is the most outstanding student in the 96 screenwriting department in Chen Kefang's heart.
Chen Kefang was stunned for a while, seeing that although Li Qian was smiling, he didn't seem to be moved at all, and was a little surprised for a while, he didn't know how to ask, Lu Lingxi and Li Qian had a close relationship, and when he saw this, he took over the topic and asked, "What? What do you think of this book...... Questions?"
Li Qian had helped Lu Lingxi read the script before, and every comment was in the bone marrow, and he officially debuted with the popularity of "The Legend of the New White Lady", the TV series, from screenwriting to photography to performance, all showed Li Qian's amazing talent in film and television, so Lu Lingxi still attaches more importance to Li Qian's opinion- It is said that the reason why the old dean rarely nodded and agreed to Zhou Yan to come to the school to shoot the MV was because he made a deal with Li Qian, and took this opportunity to borrow the storyboard script that Li Qian had drawn for the filming of this TV series, and said that the film school would copy two copies, one for archiving and one for internal borrowing and study. It can be seen from this that the old dean fully affirmed Li Qian's ability as a student in this regard, and even had some admiration.
But at this time, Li Qian shook his head and said seriously: "This book is no problem, it's a good book." Find a suitable director to make it, and it will also be a good movie. I also have a general understanding of Kui Yong's level, of course, I have nothing to say, but I talked to Kui Yong once in private, and I think he is not suitable for joining our company. ”
This time, whether it was Chen Kefang or Lu Lingxi, he was really surprised.
Shi Kuiyong is the best student in the 96-level screenwriting department, and he is definitely a good seedling, but Li Qian doesn't even want him, so what does he want?
But...... Wait, talked about it?
Chen Kefang frowned slightly and asked, "Have you talked about it?" Why is he not suitable?"
Li Qian pursed his lips and seemed to hesitate for a moment before he said: "Because he is a person with a very good idea, and he is extremely obsessed with European movies, the most important thing is ...... He insisted on the artistry of cinema and was not willing to make the slightest compromise on commercialization. ”
Speaking of this, Li Qian pointed to the script on the table and said: "For example, his script, although the plot structure has been optimized as much as possible, I believe you can see at a glance that this script is full of vague feelings in its bones, and the plot is strange." Especially when we were talking about the script, he once described to me how it felt after filming it...... In short, he wants to try to lead the audience to think about something deeper through some vague imagery. ”
Speaking of this, he had a wry smile on his face and spread his hands: "I admit that artistically speaking, this script may be a success, but commercially speaking, I am sure that very few people are willing to pay to go to the cinema to see this movie...... Especially in this day and age!"
