CH.44 The Black Humor of the Second Secondary Boy
The next day, the large screening hall of the film academy.
He Tianran appeared unkempt in front of Cai Cassia Ming, who was also tired, with a pair of dark circles under his eyes.
Not only them, but more than 50 candidates from the Department of Directors and Photography present were all depressed, and it seemed that yesterday's exam was really tiring enough for this group of people.
The two nodded to each other and said hello, and found a seat in the screening room.
The professors who invigilated the examination entered the hall in turn, and He Tianran raised his eyes to see that they were all famous figures-
Among them, there are the former dean of the fourth generation of directors, Professor Xie Fei, who has won the Silver Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival twice, accompanied by Zhang Guoshi's mentor, the famous photographer Professor Adrian Cheng, Professor Xie Xiaojing, the current head of the directing department, and Lin Hao, who had a relationship with one side in the second trial!
And in this group of people, Lin Hao, who is known for his black humor, is obviously just a younger brother!
Seeing the appearance of this group of heavyweights, all the candidates in the audience did not dare to breathe, this lineup is so luxurious, even if Zhang Guoshi comes, he has to bow first, and then he can sit down obediently.
Several professors sat down, and the candidates at the bottom were called up one by one by a graduate student who looked like a clerk, first showing the film taken yesterday, and then asking questions, some of them were asked to sweat in the winter, and even when asked what they wanted to express in the film they made, they were hesitant to express for a long time.
He Tianran couldn't afford to come, the film had to be put one by one, he was so sleepy, he didn't cut the film until six o'clock this morning last night, and he almost never slept, although he was shocked by the presence of several interviewers in person, but after thinking about it, his eyelids still couldn't resist it, and he sank heavily.
Soon after, there seemed to be a round of applause in his ears, Cai Cassia next to him touched his elbow, He Tianran opened his eyes, and in the haze, he saw Li Wang retreat from under the projection table.
"What's wrong?" He Tianran asked in a deep voice.
"Aren't you asleep? Pretending to be asleep? Cai Cianming saw that he was awake, not like he had just woken up.
"Ah, a light sleep." For this habit, He Tianran didn't bother to explain anything.
"Then you missed the show, the first in your department, it is estimated that this Li Wang, the shooting is fantastic, and the beauty of the acting department in it is also very good, I almost cried when I watched it." Cai Cianming is still unfinished.
He Tianran straightened his back, shook his stiff neck, and made two "click" sounds, he asked:
"How many?"
"It's coming to you soon."
Sure enough, after Li Wang stepped down, He Tianran was called up.
Professor Xie Fei raised his eyes and looked at him, but didn't speak, Lin Hao smiled and said with a smile: "You are He Tianran?" ”
"Well, it's me."
He Tianran worked hard to overcome the nervousness in his heart, nonsense, who is not nervous in front of these giants, since He Tianran chose to take the film academy, the names of these people have long been thunderous, and now that he has seen a real person, it is good to be able to straighten his tongue.
"My name is He Tianran, I am a native of Hong Kong City, and I ...... this year"
"That's what you're asking?" Xie Fei snorted coldly and said, "I heard that you picked up a lot of candidates from the acting department to complete short films with you yesterday, so that some students from the directing department couldn't even take the test." ”
"Huh?"
"Isn't it? One person with more than 30 people, almost the entire theater building occupies, this thing can reach my ears, you are so majestic! ”
He Tianran finally reacted, and hurriedly remedied: "Professor Xie, yesterday's incident, I didn't expect it to be so big, and those rehearsal halls, we let them out as soon as we ran out, those students who didn't have actors, I also asked the people in our group to help with the play later, so that everyone has more opportunities, I ......"
Lin Hao smiled gloatingly on the side, and said in a tone of tone: "I can see that this kid is wilted!" The bad guy is him, and the good guy is also him, look at it, it's a lot of loss~"
He Tianran wanted to cry without tears, and wanted to explain two sentences, but Xie Fei interrupted:
"It's useless to talk too much, let's see what you made such a big move and filmed!"
With his order, the entire theater dimmed again, and on the big screen, the first film of He Tianran's life jumped in front of him - King of killers, the king of killers.
What a name for the second middle school, some people in the audience have already begun to laugh, and they all thought to themselves, in just one day, can it be possible to make a Hollywood blockbuster?
And here, only Cai Cassia Ming, his eyes are bright.
After a short period of shadowfall, the film begins, with a flat-headed black-clad killer leaning on the sofa and telling his story in a voice-over voice.
"I'm a killer and I love what I do, but I've not been in the same shape as I used to be.
The company organizes experts to assess our major, and when it comes to September, we can receive a big job, which can be said to be the next four years, eating and drinking without worry.
Examiner A: "You have four tasks, and those who do not complete each round are eliminated." ”
Knockout means –
Bang, a man was suddenly pointed at the head with a gun pointed at him, and he fell to the ground."
Watching the "killers" who stood in a row like candidates fall to the ground one after another, the people in the audience understood that this film was actually a metaphor for themselves! He Tianran is filming this art exam!
"Actually, killing people is like making a movie, and there are also genres.
Literary killers don't make money, but they kill with depth.
Commercial killers make a lot of money, but there are also many restrictions, and many people can't kill and don't dare to kill.
Someone just didn't figure it out.
Examiner C: "Targeting children and pets is a taboo for commercial killers. ”
"Bang~" Another person fell.
I said, killing people is like making a movie.
Every link must be precise, because only one can be passed.
"One, one, one, Action!" 」
After another paragraph, when the so-called difference between literature and art and commerce was mentioned, the film actually restored the film clips of Hitchcock and John Woo, and in the end, a scene of the director on the set was used for the simulation of the protagonist's murder, which caused laughter in the audience.
"The assessment is now at a fever pitch, but as I said, I'm not as good as I used to be.
Friend: "How's it going?" ”
The protagonist deals with the remains of the deceased: "It's not good to kill in the early stage, it's difficult in the later stage, what about you?" ”
Friend: "Me? I'm okay, number one. ”
He's number one, I'm bottom, and I know that if I level him, I'll get number one, and this time we met each other.
Examiner A: "In this draw, you two are lucky, you only need to die one, let's start." ”
Everybody thinks that if we face each other, I'm going to lose.
"Bang~" A gunshot rang out, and my friend fell in a pool of blood.
But that day, his gun wasn't as fast as mine.
Because he's just dead, and I'm going to win even if I'm dead."
Li Wang sat in the audience, watching the character he played die, his face was full of excitement, this design was so wonderful, he even complained a little that when he died, his body should be pumped, so that it seemed real.
"Examiner A: "The last task, within twenty-four hours, kill a person at will, I don't care how you kill it, what method you use to kill, the important thing is that we like it!"
Coming down from the gun, I realized that life is really precious, I didn't know who to kill for the first time, I love my career, but this road is destined to die.
Examiner A: "How did you kill?" ”
Killer armor: "I want to kill my girlfriend, but I can't do it~woo~"
Examiner A: "I have a conscience, I like it!" ”
Killer B, who was standing next to Killer A, pulled out a gun and put it at the former's chin: "I'll kill him!" Bang~"
Examiner A: "I have an idea, I like it!" ”
At this time, Killer C also suddenly raised his pistol and pointed at the high examiner A: "I'll kill you!" Bang~"
Examiner A had a bloody hole in his eyebrows, his head was paralyzed on the table, and he muttered with difficulty: "Have guts...... I love ......"
The killers gradually slaughtered into one piece, but only the protagonist stood in the middle of the picture, unmoving.
Examiner B: "What about you?" ”
The protagonist: "Hehe, they can't kill me, they play creative, play professional...... I'm dead! ”
With the close-up of the two eyes, the protagonist resolutely swallowed the gun head into his mouth, bang~
The picture is dark.
Protagonist: "I said that I love my career, so I will win even if I die." ”」
As the protagonist's last voiceover fell, Cai Cianming stood up excitedly, his hands kept clapping, and in the huge screening hall, only his applause was unusually loud.
But after a few seconds, a group of candidates also stood up, the applause became louder and louder, and the cheers also rose, everyone was as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and no one knew the deep meaning of this film better than them, some people had tears in their eyes, and some people beat their chests.
"What a cow!"
"This black humor is absolutely amazing!"
"Number 28! Counterattack! Comeback! ”
"The King of Killers! Sniped the first place! ”
"The King of Killers! The King of Killers! King of Killers ......"
No one expected that the more than 50 people present seemed to be able to tear down the towering ceiling of the screening hall with cheers and applause alone, and they kept shouting "King of Killers" in their mouths, as if the title of the film was He Tianran's name.
The big people in the main examination seat looked at each other.
Now, no one cares who they really are, as if they have become the culprits of the killers in the film who instigated the cannibalism, and now, it is the carnival of this group of candidates.
Don't look up to anyone, that's the school ethos of the film school.
It took several minutes for the order of the scene to calm down.
"It's hard to believe that from the hands of a candidate, you can come up with such a highly completed work, and it only takes one day, which many senior students in film schools may not be able to do."
Xie Xiaojing, the head of the department, glanced at the candidates who had calmed down in the audience, and then looked at He Tianran, commenting kindly.
Professor Adrian Cheng slowly agreed: "That's right, although Xiao He is a little immature in the use of lenses, but after watching the whole film, every shot is meaningful and worth the money, and it is indeed rare in such a short time." ”
And Lin Hao, who is good at black humor, is the most able to read the tone of He Tianran's film, and he took half a minute to ease up after watching the film, and his evaluation was also very brief and direct:
"I'm at his age, this film, I can't shoot it."
This sentence carries quite a lot of weight.
Now, everyone waited with bated breath for Xie Fei's evaluation.
The old man said lightly: "Let's go down and sit down first." ”
That's it?
Everyone was puzzled and disappointed, this is the most enthusiastic response among the twenty-eight films, and the candidates have the best perception, but Old Man Xie Fei gave such a simple sentence and sent it away?
He Tianran sat back in his place in despair, and Cai Cianming comforted:
"Don't think about it, you must be able to, although you didn't do well in the third test, but this time, if you want to make it to the top twelve, you must have no problem!"
The boy smiled bitterly, Cai Cianming didn't know that if he was only the twelfth, he wouldn't be able to go to film school.
Everything is fate, and it's not up to anyone.
The exam continued, and now it was the turn of the photography department to answer the questions, He Tianran was thinking about the way out in the future, and he didn't even hear what Cai Cassia answered later, and vaguely heard the candidates applaud a few more times.
If it weren't for the idea of having a beginning and an end, it is estimated that He Tianran would have gone home by now and slept with his head covered.
It was easy to get to the end of the exam, and He Tianran was ready to leave.
Who knew that the graduate student had finished registering and said: "Don't panic after the other candidates leave, you have to take a physical examination in the afternoon, go out to get the form, and the candidate He Tianran will stay for a while." ”
He Tianran was stunned, Cai Cianming patted him on the shoulder before leaving, and even Li Wang came over, smiled at him and said:
"We will wait for you for the afternoon physical examination."
"Well, you go first."
In the screening room, there were only a few examiners left.
Xie Fei, who had always been cold to He Tianran, took a sip of tea:
"Boy, you are very bold, a film pulled out a few of our examiners, is the film school sorry for you?"
He Tianran was silent, originally he didn't have a temper, but when he thought that this dignified film school would also secretly collude with his father, he suddenly became angry.
"Nothing to be sorry for, if there is any offense, professors, the kid is here to say sorry."
He Tianran bowed deeply and continued: "Because I was really tired yesterday, can I go first?" I didn't take the physical examination, because if I just barely reached the admission line of the film school, my father probably wouldn't let me come. ”
"Oh?" Professor Xie Fei laughed a few times and said, "You don't think about it anymore? ”
"What?"
He Tianran understood what was in these words and raised his head.
"Your dad is Mr. He, right?" Lin Hao asked with a smile.
"You ...... Got it all? ”
He Tianran frowned.
Several people looked at the boy's expression and laughed hahahaha, especially Xie Fei, who had been taking the exam with a stiff face for a morning, and laughed loudly at this time, and the wrinkles on his face were stretched.
"We have read the test papers of the first test of your drama and the third test of the director, it is indeed someone who is making a hindrance from it, we have no way to take your father, after all, we have seen a lot of people who want to go through the back door, so the focus of the inspection has always been on the high-score papers, but this situation of your father and son, we are still the first to encounter ......"
Professor Xie Fei said:
"If it weren't for the big commotion you made yesterday, we were interested in you, and we were suspicious of your results in the third test and investigated, maybe it's still in the dark now, you can rest assured, Mr. He, we will re-score your results, and then announce them to the whole school, and give you a clean slate!"
Xie Xiaojing, the head of the department on the side, added:
"In fact, the old professor who interviewed you for the second test told me that you are a good seedling, and it was he who mentioned your results in the third test with the help of the trouble, and we also found out about your background from this time. Student He, there is nothing wrong with sticking to your own path, on your father's side, we will talk to your father in the personal name of the college and a few of our old people, and he will always sell a few of us face. ”
He Tianran looked at a few sincere elders, his face flushed for a while, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into, and he held it for a long time before he said:
"I ...... Professors...... Teacher...... I, I ......"
Professor Xie Fei smiled and said softly:
"Xiaohe, I didn't speak just now, and now I want to give you an evaluation - 'Pure heart, dare to be the first'! I like your character very much, it is really not easy for you to come here under the pressure of your parents, and in the future, when you embark on the road of film, please stick to it. ”
He Tianran was ashamed.
The younger Lin Hao rolled his eyes and gaged:
"Professors, I suggest that this kid be the first in the professional exam, plus his previous grades, there should be no problem, right?"
The three old men smiled.
"Okay," Xie Fei said: "Xiaohe, you must go to the school for a physical examination in the afternoon, and go home early after you are done and have a good rest." If you really want to come to film school, review your culture class, and we'll see you in September! ”
This is no longer a hint, it is simply explicit!
He Tianran was so excited that he was at a loss, nodded hurriedly, walked to the door, and ran back and bowed to the four elders before running out quickly.
Outside, a cold melt crept into the boy's neck, and he was shocked to see the snowflakes fluttering like silver elves.
The port city, which has not snowed for a long time, finally has its first snowfall.
And after this snow, spring should really arrive.
He wanted to share his joy, wanted to find someone to talk about his excitement and happiness, for a while, many names flashed in his mind, but when he picked up his mobile phone, he did not hesitate to dial a phone number.
Cao Aiqing.
No matter how much the boy thinks about it, he already has the answer in his heart.
For his subconscious move, He Tianran was also stunned.
It turned out that unconsciously, that kind and beautiful girl had occupied such an important place in his heart.
Suddenly, the boy's wrist was hot, he was startled, and quickly took off the bracelet he was wearing, and a circle of eye-catching red marks was printed on his wrist.
How so?
"Hey, natural!"
At this time, the sweet voice of the girl came from the other end of the phone.
