Chapter 4 In life, only beauty and food can not be disappointed
Bell bell bell ~
The bell rang for the end of class, ending the awkward atmosphere in the classroom.
With a stomach full of doubts, the students stood up one after another, packed their things, and prepared to leave.
Everyone is taught from an early age to stand on one side when taking the elevator and give up the other side to someone who needs to hurry.
However, today, through the sharp views of Heisuke Uesugi, everyone has discovered that the so-called elevator etiquette is ridiculous and wrong, which is really too big a blow to everyone, and it is inevitable to fall into self-doubt.
The initiator, Uesugi Heisuke, walked unhurriedly to the outside of the classroom as if he was fine, but soon he was stopped from behind by Professor Musashi.
"Heisuke-san, please wait a minute." Professor Musashi called softly.
Uesugi Heisuke looked back, "Professor, is there something wrong?" ”
Professor Musashi bowed slightly, "Well, it's about the script you submitted. ”
Uesugi Heisuke frowned, according to the rules, the script must be read by the professor first, and the professor's approval can be used to rent equipment and space from the school for free.
And the script submitted by Uesugi Heisuke is the famous food fan that was popular all over the world in his previous life, [Lonely Foodie], but due to the lack of time, he only provided a small draft.
"Oh, it turned out to be a scripted thing." Uesugi Heisuke approached Professor Musashi and said sincerely, "If there is something that the professor doesn't understand, I can explain it to you." ”
Professor Musashi shook his head and smiled, "Heisuke-kun misunderstood, I dare to vouch for my academic status, the script you gave me is the most wonderful food drama I have seen in so many years, and if I have the opportunity, I plan to recommend it to my friends at Osaka TV." ”
"Of course, it's not up to me to decide whether or not the script is adopted, but I can say without exaggeration that Heisuke-kun definitely has the potential to become a first-class editor."
Professor Musashi's eyes burned as he spoke, apparently completely moved by the [lonely gourmet].
Uesugi Heisuke was not too surprised by this result, after all, this was the king of food dramas in the previous life, and countless audiences, like Uesugi Heisuke, were fascinated by Japanese cuisine because they watched the story of Goro Inokashi.
Uesugi Heisuke asked puzzledly, "Since there is no problem with the script, then why did you look for me?" ”
"Well, after watching your performance in class just now, I suddenly have a feeling that you have the potential to develop into documentaries and social survey programs." Professor Musashi put it bluntly, "During the New Year, your work will be displayed on the campus network and on the public network. ”
"At that time, the teachers and students of the whole school, as well as many seniors in the film and television industry, will see your works, and I don't want you to form a stereotype in the minds of those seniors because of filming food dramas, thinking that you are interested in developing in the direction of food programs."
"In the final analysis, food dramas and related practitioners are not valued in the industry, and it is also a convention, there is no way to do it, while it is still too late, I just have a few ideas for social surveys here, do you want to consider it? After all, this is your first work, and if you don't do it well, it will affect your future future. ”
"As for [Lonely Gourmet], you've only written two episodes anyway, and you'll slowly improve it in the future, and it's not too late to think about it when you're in your fourth year of college, and now what you need is to position your career in advance..."
Uesugi Heisuke gradually understood Professor Musashi's good intentions.
He was not wrong, food programs are indeed not valued in this life, and are usually only broadcast in the garbage time of TV stations late at night and early in the morning, and the popularity of the Internet is lackluster.
But social investigation and documentary are different, those directors who have the courage to expose the dark side of society are even called the backbone of the film and television industry, and are very respected by their peers.
If you divide the work of directors and producers into a hierarchy, those who stand at the top of the pyramid are undoubtedly those big-screen directors.
However, the number of films released in Japan every year is only about 400, and it is terrifying to become a film director.
Down are TV dramas, documentaries, animations, variety shows, sports, etc., and as for food programs, I'm afraid they will be ranked at the bottom.
In this life, the beginning often determines the end.
Assuming that he can start as a documentary director or producer, it is undoubtedly like entering the fast lane for Heisuke Uesugi.
has a relatively high starting platform among peers, and it will be smoother to advance to TV series or big screen in the future.
And if Uesugi Heisuke started with a food program, I really don't know how many years of hard work it would have to take to qualify for the ranks of film directors, and maybe I won't have a chance in my life, and I don't know.
Smiling, Uesugi Heisuke said very sincerely, "Thank you, professor, for your support, but I still decided to make food drama my representative work in my third year of university." ”
Professor Musashi was surprised to see that he had made it very clear that he was willing to help Uesugi Heisuke make a documentary and provide him with resources, but he was refused.
It's not that he won't be allowed to make food dramas, but I just hope that he will slow down a little and try to challenge the more difficult documentaries first, and if the results are not satisfactory, it will not be too late to shoot food dramas.
"Why?" Professor Musashi blurted out almost without a second thought.
"Probably because I'm a foodie at heart." Uesugi Heisuke scratched his head, smiled very simply, and didn't seem to think that foodies meant to be self-deprecating, and even he was a little embarrassed, not ashamed, but proud of foodies.
Ay~
At this point, Professor Musashi could only sigh helplessly, it was rare that he wanted to promote the student, but the helpless student was a foodie, and his love for food exceeded the pursuit of his career.
Seeing that Uesugi Heisuke looked out the window from time to time, as if he was in a hurry to leave, Professor Musashi shrugged his shoulders and said: "Okay, everyone has their own ambitions, food drama is food drama, if you need to borrow school equipment and venues, you can come to me at any time, I will help you coordinate, after all, the school's resources are limited, if all students come to borrow the venue at the same time, the logistics department will be very troubled." ”
"As for the people who will help you complete the work, I can't do anything, usually the students help each other and form a support group, of course, you can also go to other departments to find someone to help, such as lighting and shooting, it is best to find the help of students from the photography department, after all, they usually learn about lighting and framing."
It's rare for Professor Musashi to say so much today, and Uesugi Heisuke was very moved and wrote down the main points one by one.
"Look at you keep looking outside, do you have a date after school?" Professor Musashi asked jokingly.
He thinks that there must be a beautiful girl from the dance department waiting for Heisuke, which makes him appear absent-minded in front of the professor, young people, it's normal to fall in love.
Uesugi Heisuke smiled and shook his head, "You misunderstood, I don't have a girlfriend, it's just that I asked a male friend to go to an izakaya in Nishinari Ward together, so..."
Well, in order to go drinking, you can't even discuss with the professor absent-mindedly?
Professor Musashi felt angry and amused, and he waved his hand at Heisuke Uesugi and said, "Go ahead, you guy, you're really a foodie." ”
Uesugi Heisuke was overjoyed, trotted out of the classroom, and said: "Life is only a few decades in the world, it is like a passing cloud, only beauty and food can not be disappointed, see you tomorrow, professor!" ”
Only beauty and food can live up to it...
Seeing Uesugi Heisuke's back, thinking about his parting words, Professor Musashi was a little distracted for a moment.
is obviously a young man in his early twenties, but between words and actions, there is a sense of freedom and lightness of the passerby, such a state of mind is really rare.
Nishiseong District!?
Professor Musashi was suddenly stunned, and his eyes were a little strange.
Thinking of the absurd experience when he was young, the professor's face turned slightly red, and he muttered to himself: "This kid, shouldn't he go to Xicheng District to do that kind of thing under the guise of drinking..."
