"Teacher Zhang, are you back?" Ning Hao was sitting in the office with his wife Xing Na, and when he saw Zhang Ran, he quickly stood up.

Zhang Ran didn't pay attention to Ning Hao, but joked at Xing Na: "Xing Na, I'm going to criticize you, a female student runs to the male teacher's office all day long, what kind of system is this?" and said: "The graduation work of your class won the jury award at the Magic Capital Film Festival, how about your graduation work?

Xing Na is Ning Hao's wife, and one of the screenwriters of Ning Hao's films, graduated from the Nortel Department of Literature, in 06 Xing Na was admitted to the Nortel Department of Directing Master of Arts, and Wan Ma Caidan, and Zhao Wei are classmates, and should graduate this year. Xing Na glanced at Zhang Ran and said: "Ning Hao and I are two people, if the two of us are not in form, then you are the unspoken rule Zhang Jingchu!"

Ning Hao sneered and gave his wife a thumbs up.

Zhang Ran laughed and said to Ning Hao: "Your daughter-in-law's mouth is amazing, I can't talk about her." By the way, how are you preparing for the graduation ceremony?"

Zhang Ran has been busy recently, and he really doesn't have time to take care of the graduation ceremony, while Ning Hao has nothing to do recently, so the task of preparing for the graduation ceremony naturally falls on him. Hearing Zhang Ran ask at this moment, he said, "It's all arranged, and the venue is almost arranged, I'll take you to have a look!"

Zhang Ran is the dean of the academy, so he definitely has to go and see: "Let's go, go and see!"

Coming out of the guide building and walking into the standard screening room, Zhang Ran saw the red set board arranged on the stage, which was decorated with some film patterns, the icon of the Asian Film Academy in the center, and the big white characters "Asian Film Academy 2006 Graduation Ceremony" written below.

On the right side of the stage is a huge display board, on which is a huge graduation certificate, with the signature of the dean Zhang Ran and the seal of the school, and the place where the graduation certificate is posted with a photo is set up in a hollow shape.

Ning Hao saw Zhang Ran's surprised face, and explained with a smile: "Students can stand behind the display board and take pictures at the place where the photo is pasted, the student's name on the graduation certificate is an LCD screen operated by a computer, and the student only needs to enter his or her student number, and the name will be displayed." ”

Zhang Ran is very satisfied with this design: "As a student of the film academy and studying film production, I should not stick to the rules, but should come up with something creative." This graduation certificate is a bit interesting, but the graduation certificate alone seems too monotonous, one person takes a picture of the old one, and more interesting things should be made for everyone to take a group photo, such as a marriage certificate. ”

Ning Hao was stunned, and then laughed: "Our twelve students are all boys!"

Zhang Ran said: "It's not really married, what are you afraid of, it's fun like this!"

Ning Hao made up the scene of a group of boys queuing up to take wedding photos, and was immediately happy: "Yes, yes, it will be fun then!"

Next, Ning Hao introduced the arrangements of the entire graduation ceremony to Zhang Ran in detail, which is divided into two parts: the graduation ceremony and the graduation movie. The process of the graduation ceremony is quite different from the previous graduation ceremonies, with a lot of fun design, and the graduation film is a 120-minute documentary that records the life of students from enrollment to graduation, three years.

After listening to Ning Hao's introduction, Zhang Ran was very satisfied and asked, "Has the documentary been made?"

Ning Hao shook his head and said: "Not yet, there will be a few shots at the graduation ceremony, which will be collaged directly at the back of the film, and then played immediately." ”

"At the beginning of the opening ceremony, Wu Ershan and they were making short films, and now when they graduate, they will also make films, which can be regarded as a beginning and an end. Zhang Ran looked at the words "Asian Film Academy 2006 Graduation Ceremony" on the stage, his heart fluctuated, and he sighed, "Time flies too fast, it seems that they have only been enrolled for a few days, and they haven't taught them much, and they are about to graduate!"

Ning Hao also felt a little emotional in his heart, but he didn't show it, and said with a smile: "Didn't you always hope that they would graduate as soon as possible and then devote themselves to the Chinese film industry, why were you suddenly reluctant?"

Zhang Ran smiled and waved his hand: "I definitely hope that they can go to the market as soon as possible, the Chinese film market is developing very fast, but the speed of film quality improvement is far behind the speed of the development of the film market, resulting in a flood of domestic movies in the market." If this situation is not reversed, in the long run, the audience will not enter the cinema, and Chinese films will be like the 90s, and the entire film industry will face the danger of collapsing again. Therefore, it is particularly important for new directors like Urshan to go to the market, and I have been waiting for this day!"

A few years ago, when Zhang Ran mentioned this issue, Ning Hao was a little skeptical in his heart, thinking that Zhang Ran's judgment was a bit exaggerated, although there are many bad domestic movies, they are not as exaggerated as Zhang Ran said. Of course, he was brought out by Zhang Ran, and he unreservedly supported Zhang Ran in the matter of the Asian Film Academy.

But since 07, with the rapid expansion of the film market, a large amount of hot money has frantically poured into the film market, resulting in a sharp increase in the number of domestic films. These hot money don't understand movies, and they don't love movies, their only purpose is to make money, so they don't care about the quality of the script, or the level of the director, they spend money to smash two stars, and just fight a movie, and they can go public to make money, so in the past two years, domestic bad movies have grown explosively.

The really scary thing is that the number of movies is increasing rapidly, and the number of bad movies is increasing rapidly, while the number of high-quality commercial films has hardly changed, only a few per year, because there are only a few directors who can really make high-quality commercial films.

At this time, Ning Hao finally realized that Zhang Ran's judgment was extremely accurate, and he also realized the true significance of the Asian Film Academy. He believes that just like Zhang Ran said, the situation of the flood of bad domestic films will not change in the short term, but he believes that with Zhang Ran leading the way, Zhang Ran gradually establishing a film system in line with Hollywood, and Zhang Ran escorting new directors, Chinese films will definitely get out of the predicament!

Zhang Ran said that director Zhang Yimou is the backbone of Chinese films, and in Ning Hao's view, he is the backbone of Chinese films! Director Xie Jin entrusted him with Chinese films, which is really right!

Ning Hao took a deep breath and said confidently: "Chinese films will not collapse again, I have confidence in our film academy, I'll just say this, not long ago, the four little flowers and the four big students were selected, and the students you brought out accounted for more than half of them, Mr. Zhang, I believe that when the new generation of directors in the mainland is counted in ten years, our Asian Film Academy will account for more than half!"

Zhang Ran said: "The kind of inventory on the list is often art film directors, not commercial film directors, if our school graduates occupy this kind of list, it means that all our efforts are in vain." I hope that in 10 years, half of the top 10 box office in the mainland will be our students!"

Ning Hao was stunned, and then laughed: "Yes, yes, we are cultivating commercial film directors, and I believe that more than half of the top ten in the mainland box office list in ten years will be our students!"

Zhang Ran said with longing: "By that time, the Chinese film market should surpass the United States, and the box office should exceed 100 billion, and at that time, the domestic market alone will be able to support top blockbusters." ”

After carefully understanding the process and arrangement of the entire graduation ceremony, Zhang Ran asked Ning Hao to call and call the students to the mark. The students are about to graduate, and as the dean, Zhang Ran would like to talk to everyone and understand their respective ideas.

Graduation is imminent, and the students are back in school and are not on the crew. Even Wu Ershan returned to school after completing the work of "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" and waited for the graduation ceremony. When the students heard that Zhang Ran was back and wanted to see everyone, they all rushed to the standard. In less than ten minutes, all twelve students had arrived.

Zhang Ran chatted with the students, asking them how their new movie was doing, and also asked them about their plans for the future.

Among the twelve students, Wu Ershan, Guo Zijian, and Park Hoon-jung received funding from the academy and got the opportunity to direct alone, and they have all completed filming and are now waiting for the movie to be released. The other nine students are all running around for their films after filming "Dragons", and many of them have already negotiated with film companies, such as Yang Qing's "Nightclub", which will start shooting soon.

Whether it has been negotiated or continues to work hard, the students have opened their eyes and have a deep understanding of the film industry in the past three years of study, they are very confident and full of hope for the future.

After chatting with the students for a while, Zhang Ran waved goodbye to everyone and came to the office of the 05th class of the performance department.

Guo Zhen was talking to Yan Shuo, looked up and saw Zhang Ran, and immediately shouted in surprise: "Teacher Zhang, you are back!" Yan Shuo jumped up, looked at Zhang Ran and smiled: "Teacher Zhang, I was still telling Guo Zhen just now, you must be coming back, I didn't expect you to appear immediately!"

Li Xinyue saw Zhang Ran's heart fluctuate, four years have passed, and the 05 class is about to graduate, but the situation of taking the 01 undergraduate class with Zhang Ran is still vivid, as if it was yesterday. She smiled at Zhang Ran and said, "You busy man has finally appeared, Guo Zhen and the two girls look forward to your coming back every day, if you don't come back, they will die in a hurry!"

Zhang Ran nodded at Guo Zhen and Yan Shuo, and smiled at Li Xinyue: "My two teaching assistants are quite confused, I don't know how much trouble I have caused you, thank you very much!"

Guo Zhen and Yan Shuo said in unison: "Teacher Zhang, I'm not confused!"

Li Xinyue said with a smile: "I didn't help much, now Guo Zhen and the others are not confused at all, they are all very capable, and they are no longer the little confused they were at the beginning." ”

"Then it seems that I'm confused!" Zhang Ran laughed, looked at Li Xinyue and asked, "Xinyue, are there any students in your class staying in school?"

Just like Feng Yuanzheng said a few years ago, China's current performance teaching is a mess, and the concept of performance is very backward. Zhang Ran brought back the training methods of the Stella School from the United States, and under his guidance in the past four years, the Class of 05 experimented with the fusion of Stella and Grotowski training methods.

Zhang Ran undoubtedly hopes that these performance concepts and training methods can be gradually spread in China, and then change the status quo of performance education in China. And for these things to spread gradually, we need a group of performance teachers who have mastered these techniques and concepts. Only Lin Xiaolu in Zhang Ran's class is sure that he will stay in school, and the other students will develop in the entertainment industry, so Zhang Ran wanted to ask how many of Li Xinyue's classes stayed in school.

"There are two!" Li Xinyue has worked with Zhang Ran for four years, knows him too well, knows why he asked, so he said, "After this class of students is finished, I will go to lead a teacher training class." This refresher course is a refresher that some other schools have sent teachers to our school for further training based on the consideration of teacher training, and after these teachers have refreshed, the things you experiment with will spread. Dean Chen told me that we have been following in the footsteps of Chinese opera in performance education for many years, and now it is time for us to influence Chinese performance education!"

When Zhang Ran heard this, he immediately remembered what Chen Jianfeng said to him on the day he arrived at Nortel, and he didn't break his promise, he did it.
