Chapter 471: Ceremony
June 10.
The Sandton Conservatory of Music graduation ceremony was held in the on-campus concert hall.
For the first time in her life, Liu Pian put on a bachelor's uniform and a bachelor's hat, which was square and square, with a long hanging tassel hanging from the back.
However, Liu Pian felt that this dress was a little awkward to wear, and she always felt like a magician in a robe.
"Do you feel that I look like an archmage?" Outside the concert hall, Liu Pian twisted his body and looked at Xiao Mindao.
"Like a magic stick. Xiao Min smiled.
Liu Pian's eyelids trembled, God stick, isn't that specifically to fool people?
"By the way, have you prepared your speech?" Xiao Min asked.
"There was no preparation at all. Liu Pian shrugged.
"So what are you going to do? ”
"You can do whatever you want. Liu Pian said helplessly, "Let's talk to everyone casually." ”
The two walked into the concert hall and took their seats in the audience.
The auditorium has two tiers and is in a circular shape, enclosing the performance stage. On the stage, there are already many students holding various musical instruments preparing for the performance, and they are members of the college orchestra who will "accompany" the ceremony throughout the ceremony.
No way, there is no shortage of people who can play music.
Half an hour later, the ceremony officially began.
First of all, a lengthy series of guest introductions.
The host read the people in the guest table from left to right, including college leaders, alumni who have graduated, and music masters in society.
After the introduction, the bigwigs all spoke one after another, and Liu Pian was about to come out of sleep, but the only thing that made him a little interested was the song and dance interspersed in the middle.
Finally, after the bigwigs finished speaking, it was Liu Pian's turn.
After hearing the host read out Liu Pian's name, many students present expressed their unease.
Wow, the academy has such a big heart that it actually let this liar come up and give a speech.
Liu Pian walked down the audience with a smile and came to the podium, "Hello everyone, I'm Liu Pian." ”
Cut!
There was a chorus of boos from the audience.
Who doesn't know you're a willow liar?
Liu Pian kept smiling and continued, "I know that some of my classmates may have a little prejudice against me, but I don't mind, and I also believe, it's all just a misunderstanding.
What I want to talk to you about today has something to do with this.
In the past, the teachers talked a lot about the future and ideals. All of you, if nothing else, the future of work and life will certainly be inseparable from music, and all of this is predestined from the moment you set foot at the door of Thornton College.
Does anyone want to be a singer? Yes.
Does anyone want to be a soundtrack master? Yes.
Anyone who wants to perform their best instrument in the world's largest concert hall? Surely there is?
And me...
At first, I wanted to be an honest behind-the-scenes musician, writing songs, and making music. Later, I thought it was good to be a singer, and later, I found it interesting to score music for film and television dramas.
So that's why I became a director?
Of course not!
During that time, I suddenly wanted to watch a movie, but I couldn't find a satisfactory new work, so I had to watch an old film from many years ago. After watching it, I thought, since I can't see a new movie that I'm happy with, why don't I make a movie myself?
Then I started writing the script, submitting it to the studio, and it was successfully adopted.
I also got my first manuscript payment!
This was several years ago, and since then, I have thought that one day, I will shoot the script I wrote by myself, even if I am admitted to the conservatory of music in college, it will not stop my dream of becoming a director!
Now, I did!"
Liu Pian clenched her fists, raised her arms high, and looked excited, "My debut film won nearly $400 million at the box office! The box office return rate is the first in the world!
Yes, you deny my success and think that the witch is successful because of the false hype, but you ask yourself, is the witch really a bad movie? How many people are scared? At least as a pseudo-documentary, it qualifies, and even it has set a precedent for pseudo-documentary horror films!
Look at how many new pseudo-documentary horror films have been released in the United States this year, do you dare to say that this trend is not brought by me?
I admit that witches have a lot of shortcomings, but you shouldn't use them to cover up their strengths.
There is no such thing as success for no reason.
From the moment the whole nation, the whole world, started calling me a Willow liar, I knew I had taken a big step on the road to success!
To put it another way, at least I made a work that will be remembered by the whole world!
When you stop calling me a willow liar one day, it may be when I am in decline.
But not now!
I will learn from the lessons of the past and make better and better movies, write more beautiful lyrics, and sing more beautiful songs!
Believe me, you're going to see a better and better Willow liar!"
After speaking, Liu Pian bent down and thanked him.
In my head, the system's prompt sounded:
[Deception is successful, get deception points.....]
Looking at the long list of numbers, Liu Pian showed a smile of even more satisfaction.
It's not in vain.
He himself was a little confused, and he didn't know which sentence was true and which was false.
Bang Bang Bang!
The students and teachers applauded Liu, although there were still some who didn't believe what she said.
Why are you getting better and better? It's getting worse and worse, isn't it?
Liu Pian was about to step down, suddenly remembered something, turned around again, picked up the microphone, "By the way, my new film "SA" will be released at the end of the month, I promise not to lie, it is really good-looking, if you are interested, you can go to the cinema to find out, you will not be disappointed." ”
Everyone: "....."
The host hurriedly gestured to the side: Why don't you advertise, hurry up and give Lao Tzu down!
Liu Pian reluctantly put down the microphone, she hadn't made such a deception for a long time, and she was reluctant to put down the microphone as soon as she said it.
......
In the second half of the award ceremony, the dean and teachers awarded degree certificates and other certificates to the outstanding graduates, and also awarded tassels to the outstanding students.
Liu Pian and Xiao Min are both excellent graduates.
The two also walked off the awards stage arm in arm, which was envied by many people.
This Chinese couple is really eye-catching.
"Liu Pian, are all what you just said true?" Xiao Min asked curiously.
"Some of the stories are made up, and some of them are from my heart. Liu Pian said quietly, "I suddenly want to thank Liu Yi, if he didn't often call me a Liu liar, maybe I wouldn't be used to those public opinions on the Internet." Looking back now, I guess I accepted this title years ago. ”
Xiao Min nodded lightly and grabbed Liu Pian's hand.
The more people call, the meaning of the word will gradually become blurred.
......
Although Thornton College has a great relationship with USC, it is relatively independent. Its graduation ceremonies and USC graduation ceremonies were not held at the same time.
A few days later, it was USC's graduation ceremony.
But Liu Pian didn't want to join in the fun.
On the film academy's side, "SA" won the honor of outstanding graduate works, and at the same time, it also won Zhou Mulan's "Heartbeat".
She just finished it a few days ago, and this is still in post-production, and Universal has helped a lot in the back, otherwise it is not certain whether she can do it this summer vacation just by her own ability.
In addition, Paul's new film "Assassination" also received this honor.
That adds up to three.
The teachers who reviewed it at the beginning were very surprised to see that "SA" and "Heartbeat" were both scripts by Liu Pian.
After watching the movie, all kinds of prejudices against Liu Pian disappeared in my heart.
Only one thought remains.
"Perhaps, he is really a genius, not a liar. ”
......
Mid-June.
"SA" was screened on a small scale in Los Angeles.
And the tickets are given to the media, film critics, or veteran fans in advance by Universal and Cinemas, and will not be sold to the general audience.
Universal just wants the media to be able to say a few words for "SA" in a fair and objective manner.
Now in the pre-screening publicity period, they have always boasted about themselves around the world, although they blow it very well, and many people know it, but how many people believe it is unknown.
I still have to let some media with bad mouths speak, they can influence the position of many audiences.
In the past few days, the USC Film School is a secret screening.
Many veteran film journalists come to USC and go straight to film school.
"How dare you order it?"
"Haha, is the Liu liar planning to notify us in advance so that we don't fall for it?"
"Ridiculous!"
"I'd like to see what he's playing!"
After the film, when many reporters came out of the film school again, their expressions became extremely solemn.
A reporter looked up at the sky and sighed, "This time, everyone miscalculated!"
