"Zhang Ran, what the hell are you doing?" Huang Zhenyu's face was very ugly, I came specifically to listen to the class, you don't teach honestly in the classroom, but you want to take the students out, is there still me as the dean in your eyes?

Zhang Ran hurried over and said with a smile: "Dean, through more than half a month of contact with students, I found a very serious problem, most of the students don't know anything about the cruelty of actors, thinking that if they are admitted to Nortel, they will step into the film and television industry, thinking that they can become big stars." So I have to take them to the set, to get to know the profession of actors, to understand the survival of this industry, and I have to make them understand that actors don't have a beautiful face, so that they can dive into learning acting. ”

Huang Zhenyu was stunned by Zhang Ran's reasoning, and said angrily: "Such a teacher came to listen to your class, and you left everyone aside, do you think it's appropriate?"

Zhang Ran smiled: "Dean, I think what you just said is particularly reasonable, you said that the object of the class is the student, not the teacher, how can you change the teaching content casually because of the teacher, I am also following your instructions!"

"You, you! very good!" Huang Zhenyu almost vomited blood, dug a pit and asked me to jump into it, you have a kind of!

The teachers all felt that Zhang Ran was right, and the idea of taking students to experience life was also very good, so they nodded at him with a smile and left the classroom.

Zhang Ran knew that he had offended Huang Zhenyu again, but he didn't take this matter to heart, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, as long as I teach the students well, can you still open me? He was in a good mood and came to the school playground humming a little song.

The students moved quickly and assembled in the playground in a few minutes.

Zhang Ran glanced at the students in the class: "Didn't you wear the most ordinary clothes, why did you wear such a beautiful dress, you went to the beauty pageant?"

"I wear the most ordinary clothes. ”

"yes, so do I!"

Zhang Ran smiled: "It seems that you are usually very stinky and beautiful!"

The girls were proud: "We are from the acting department, of course we have to dress up beautifully!"

"We're not stinky, we're beautiful!"

"It's called natural beauty!"

Zhang Ran's heart was happy, yo, this group of girls was still on display, waved his hand, and said: "It's impossible for you to find old clothes now, so be it! Let's get to the point, a normal crew of actors is divided into starring, supporting roles, role actors, stuntmen, stand-in actors, extras, etc., what we have to do is to experience the life of extras." When our Nortel students go out to act, they can generally mix a supporting role, and they are all role actors. So, this is a rare opportunity, everyone take it seriously!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Ran waved at Cao Bingkun: "Cao Bingkun, you have been an extras before, let me introduce you to how extras can be classified!"

Cao Bingkun walked out of the team and introduced loudly: "There are three kinds of extras, dragon actors, group actors, and special actors. The actor is basically playing a passerby, the chance of showing his face is very small, the salary is paid daily, a working meal is provided, and the income is about 30 yuan a day; the group of actors will follow the crew to shoot outside of Beiping, and the salary is about 2000 yuan a month; the special actor is the relative who plays the protagonist, the company manager, the restaurant owner, etc., all the roles with lines, shots, and close-ups, and the salary is settled according to the scene, about 600 yuan a game. ”

Zhang Ran patted Cao Bingkun on the shoulder, motioned for him to go down, and then said: "Let's go to play tricks today, and when we get to the gate of Beijing Film Studio in a while, we are not allowed to say that we are from Nortel, just say yes, well, Jintian Art School." Note that there are many liars and perverts at the gate of Beijing Film Studio, and some people often claim to be directors, claiming to know Zhang Yimou, and Feng Xiaogang are sworn brothers, cheating money and sex, and boys should pay attention to protecting girls. Alright, let's go!"

Beijing Film Studio is only separated by a wall from Nortel, but it takes 15 minutes to walk from the main gate of Nortel to the main gate of Beijing Film Studio, so Nortel students go to Beijing Film Studio many times by climbing over the wall.

The black squatting on both sides of the gate of the Beijing Film Studio is full of people, looking like a vegetable market, full of extras squatting work.

In fact, waiting here, the chances are very slim. In a play, there are only more people who use soldiers in battles and large scenes of pomp and circumstance, and generally there are more than 100 extras in a play, which is considered a lot. If you can earn five or six hundred yuan a month, it's not bad, but it's not as good as a small job.

Zhang Ran's arrival caused a commotion among many extras, after all, they are students in Nortel's undergraduate class, and their image and temperament are first-class, which is very eye-catching. Zhang Ran ignored the curious eyes of the extras, found an open space, and asked the students in the class to squat.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came: "Bingkun, Bingkun, weren't you admitted to Nortel? Why did you come to the gate of Beiying Studio again?"

Zhang Ran felt that the voice was familiar, and when he raised his eyes, he saw a simple and silly face.

Wang Baoqiang!

Zhang Ran knew that the person in front of him would become a totem and a legend at the gate of Beijing Film Studio in a few years. With the rise of film and television bases in various places, Beijing Film Studio is slowly declining, and there is less and less life, but there is always a group of people who insist here, so there is a big star here - Wang Baoqiang, they all hope that good luck can fall on their heads and become Wang Baoqiang's second!

Cao Bingkun made a silent gesture at Wang Baoqiang, lowered his voice and said: "Baoqiang, don't talk nonsense, the teacher asked us to be extras and experience life!"

Wang Baoqiang grinned: "What do extras have to experience, your teacher is a fool, right?"

The students in the class were happy, who is this, saying that he was a fool in front of Teacher Zhang, it was really untidy!

Cao Bingkun admired Zhang Ran tightly, afraid that he would be angry, so he hurriedly said: "Teacher Zhang, don't be angry, Baoqiang can't speak, don't be like him!"

Although Wang Baoqiang looks stupid, he is actually not stupid, he reacted immediately, bowed again, and apologized: "Teacher, I didn't mean that, I'm stupid and can't speak, you forgive me!"

"I'm not so stingy!" Zhang Ran smiled and waved his hand, thinking about stupidity, doesn't he seem stupid, glared at Jia Niliang, who couldn't stop laughing, "What are you laughing at, you are all extras now, you are here to find a job, hurry up and squat for me!"

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Ran beckoned to Wang Baoqiang: "Baoqiang, you have been an extras for a few years, and you have a lot of experience, tell the students in our class!"

Wang Baoqiang shook his head: "I can't speak, what are you talking about?"

Zhang Ran said: "Just talk about your experience, how you became an extra, whether acting is hard, and what difficulties you have experienced." If you tell it well, at the end of the year, our school will make a movie, and when the time comes, we will ask you to play it, and give you a role with close-ups and lines!"

"Really, then I'll talk, I'll talk!" Hearing the role with lines and close-ups, Wang Baoqiang's eyes lit up, it was a special contract, playing hundreds of scenes, he thought about it and said, "I used to learn martial arts in Shaolin Temple, but I want to be an actor, an actor like Jet Li, and then I came here." When I first became an extra, I thought that every actor in the crew was equal. We would eat together, film together, talk together, I would teach others martial arts, and others would teach me how to act. Later, I learned that extras like us, in their eyes, are just small ants on the land, black oppresses a group, and there is no difference between who and whom. Don't say that you can learn from them, even if you look at them and say a word, you can't. I remember that once when I was filming in front, I made a mistake, and the crew rushed up and scolded, as ugly as it sounded. Another time, during a shoot, I accidentally kicked over an antique chair and got slapped in the face. ”

Hearing this, Wang Luodan couldn't help but ask, "It's really a fight, you didn't resist?"

Wang Baoqiang smiled innocently: "I endure it, I want to be an actor, if I fight with the crew, I won't get money, and other crews may not use me." ”

Ji Chen suggested: "You are from Shaolin Temple, you know martial arts, you should go to perform martial arts!"

Wang Baoqiang nodded and said: "Later, I also did martial arts, and my first martial arts job was a movie called "Bus Detective", as a stand-in for the male protagonist. My task was to climb onto a very high fire ladder and fall off it. The ladder was more than two meters high, with a concrete floor underneath it, without any protection. I climbed up the ladder and looked at the gray-white concrete floor below, my legs shaking all the time. But when the director shouted to start, I closed my eyes and fell straight down. But this shot didn't happen, so I had to do it all over again. I fell to the ground like a punching bag again. This shot was taken three times, and I fell three times. By the time the director said it, when I got up, I didn't feel any pain at all, my arm was broken, and my sleeves were wet with blood. ”

The students in the class were stupid, falling from a height of more than two meters, it was still a concrete floor, this is acting, this is playing with life!

Wang Baoqiang continued: "An old martial artist came over, pulled me aside and said, 'You are stupid, why did you really fall? How can you throw your body to the ground so directly? If you continue like this, you will die! Although I fell badly that day, I got 50 yuan. The next day, I still fell to the ground, but not from a ladder. I'm going to be grabbed by the wrist and thrown to the ground. But I still don't know what a fake fall is or a real fall. By the time the shooting was over, my eyes were blue and one side of my face was swollen. At the end of the day, the assistant director came over, patted me on the shoulder and said, "It's a good performance, it's real." Since that movie, many group leaders know that there is a stand-in named Wang Baoqiang, who is not afraid of death, others fake falls, he really falls......"

Wang Baoqiang talked about his own experience and what he saw, talked about the interesting things of doing group performances, and also talked about the hardships and tiredness of group performances. He has a limited level of education, speaks things simply and directly, and does not have any fancy words, but this simple language is particularly sincere and infectious.

The students present were shocked, they always thought that being an actor was an easy and enjoyable thing, and stood in front of the camera and performed directly. I didn't expect that there is such a group of people who rely on a meager income of 30 yuan and box lunches every day to support themselves, and they sleep in the grove near the Third Ring Road outside the wall of Beijing Film Studio without money to pay rent, just for the unquenchable dream of being an actor in their hearts!

They understand why Zhang Ran brought everyone to the gate of Beijing Film Studio, compared with these extras, they can study in Nortel's classroom, they are really happy and lucky!

At this time, a woman in her forties, wearing sunglasses, walked out of the Beijing Film Studio. She glanced at the crowd and saw Zhang Ran and them, and couldn't help but be stunned, this group of people was dressed more brightly, and their image and temperament did not look like extras. She was a little curious, and walked over and asked, "Are you doing extras?"
