235. Chapter 235 Scene 235 Lecturer Li Starts Class

In the open classes of the Central Academy of Drama, it is usually in the first floor lecture hall of the newly built teaching building No. 5. With the support of the latest big screen projector and audio, the lecture hall can accommodate 800 people, which basically ensures that everyone and students can hear what the teacher on the podium are talking about.

This is very difficult to do open classes in Central Academy of Drama, because since the university atmosphere opened in the early 1990s, all the younger generation of students have become increasingly arrogant and no longer have the spirit of respecting teachers and respecting the truth. When they meet those who think they are famous, they will not be too face. For example, this open class at the beginning of school, the production directors of China Film and even Beijing Film Academy who came to the scene will basically not exceed 0 students.

Only half of Wang Xiaoshuai's class last year had filled up. When the college even invited older directors who had been famous for their long time to start classes, sometimes even 100 students could not get together.

In the minds of this generation of students who have been influenced by Hong Kong movies, almost all the Chinese directors they admire are Hong Kong's Johnnie To, Zhou Xingxing, and Xu Ke...

He looked down on the mainland directors. Even Brother Chen Kai and Zhang Yimou were nothing good in their eyes. He always thought that if he directed the drama himself, he might be more interesting than them.

But what the organizers of the Central Academy of Drama did not expect was that in the afternoon of the afternoon, nearly 1,000 people flocked to the lecture hall in Building 5, and even many students from Beijing Film Academy came. This made the organization teacher unexpectedly so that they could only organize students to move benches in other classrooms, and temporarily added hundreds of seats before they could barely let everyone enter.

Sun Li, Rong Yingying and Zhang Ma sat in the middle, and they all felt incredible. Isn’t this just an open class for a production director? Why is it like the president of the country coming to inspect, so many people join in the fun?

"Did you see that it is Tang Wei from the 2000-level director department. She, the school beauties of the Central Academy of Drama, have come." Rong Yingying pointed at the beauty in the front row in a fuss and said.

"That boy Wen Zhang is here to join in the fun... It's so boring. Isn't that girl next to him Tang Yan..." Zhang Ma stretched her neck and looked at the front row, but saw a familiar face.

"Why are all these famous people coming..." Sun Li widened her eyes, feeling a little excited. Although she had already made a movie, the gap was still very obvious compared to the talented women who had already played main roles in various crews of the Central Academy of Drama.

"It seems that our Director Li is really famous~" Zhang Ma lazily put his hand on the back of his head and smiled.

Seeing Li Xiaole, who was looking forward to it, all the students below became restless. Several students from Beijing Film Academy were quite unrestrained and whistled and shouted: "Li Fengmao, look here~" As a result, Director Xu of the Administrative Affairs Office "invited" them on the spot. They forgot that this place is not a free and unrestrained Beijing Film Academy, and the academic style of the Central Academy of Drama is known for its rigorousness.

In the lecture, Li Xiaole swept over the youthful faces below, and couldn't help but feel a little excited, because he had seen Wen Zhang, Tang Wei, and Bai Baihe, who were good future actors, and wanted to sign them into his crew immediately. However, the letter thought so, everything still had to follow the process. He wanted to test the sincerity of these students coming for the interview.

Seeing that the time was almost over, Li Xiaole made a gesture to the staff in charge of the audio. Director Xu of the Administrative Affairs Office hurriedly came over with a smile and asked, "Director Li is ready?"

"Well, let's start." Li Xiaole nodded and said, Director Xu immediately prepared for all staff. The signal of the microphone in Li Xiaole's hand was immediately transmitted to the speaker. Everyone heard a crisp and deep voice:

"Hello, all the students, I am Li Xiaole. I am very happy and honored to be on behalf of China Film Group to chat with you here and discuss some topics about film and television."

There was immediately applause from the audience, and everyone in the audience was very excited.

"Let me explain the process of this open class first. There are 4 hours in total. I will play a movie in the first two hours. Then we will talk about this movie together. Then I will select actors suitable for my crew from everyone on site. If students who are not interested in the shooting of my crew, they can leave now. Thank you for your cooperation..."

There was an uproar in the audience immediately. What does it mean? Isn’t it too hasty to select actors on the spot based on the performance of students? Although the director’s way of choosing actors is strange, from today’s nearly a thousand people, Director Li wanted to spend only 2 hours to select the right actors. This is too unreasonable.

Of course these students don’t understand, because they are just students. In fact, standing on the podium, with Li Xiaole’s eyesight, you can clearly see everyone below, which is dozing off, which is playing with mobile phones, and which is secretly eating snacks. You can clearly see that the students are used to treating teachers as fools, but in fact they are just too lazy to care about them.

What's more, even though there are a thousand people, it is these people who are put together that it is easy to compare who is outstanding, which makes people unforgettable at first sight. If you look over casually, your eyes will unconsciously fall on those actors who will achieve success in the future, and it will be effortless.

"Okay, everyone, calm down, let's start, watch the movie first, let's discuss it, the interview begins now..." Li Xiaole emphasized the four "interview starts", but felt that few people noticed it, so he turned around and signaled the staff to dim the lights.

The scene suddenly became quiet and silent. Just now, Li Xiaole said that he would select actors based on the performance of the scene. Most of the people here came for the interview, and no one dared to act rashly.

But at the beginning of the movie, the red calligraphy of "Hero", everyone was stunned. According to the past practice, the producers of the public class all put their own works on their own, and then they started to brag about their own works. Everyone thought they would put "Crazy Stone". How could someone else's movie be or the box office rival of "Crazy Stone", Lao Toozi's "Hero"?

Could it be that director Li Xiaole lost to "Hero" at the box office? He wanted to come to a critical conference to make himself enjoy it? Everyone knows the verbal battle between "Crazy Stone" and "Hero" in the media.

"This guy is too scrupulous..." Sun Li frowned in the audience, but Rong Yingying smiled and said, "What's the matter? Are literati's inferior? Since ancient times, this kind of virtue has been done. Didn't the directors scold him? Just flatter him. Anyway, at this flattery conference, we will compare who can beat him~"

Everyone was with the same thoughts, and while despising Li Xiaole's sinister intentions, they were making up in their hearts how to flatter him later, Li Cengkuan was so happy.

Everyone present actually watched this blockbuster that caused a sensation across the country in the cinema. Most people felt disapproving. This movie was originally popular but not well received. Its reputation was divided into two levels, and most of them were scolded. Many people thought it was the worst film made by "Lao Touzi". But the students of the film academy understood in their hearts that this movie was outstanding in many aspects.

Before he knew it, the movie was finished and the lights were on again, Li Xiaole walked to the stage and heard the bottom, muttering: "What kind of movie is, the picture is good, and I don't know what to say." "It's boring, it has no meaning, the plot is too boring..."

But I saw the faces full of refreshing look. Although I was comfortable watching the movie, I couldn’t show my own level without scolding a few words. This is the mentality of not only sleeping with the hair salon lady, but also calling prostitution shameful...

Li Xiaole walked to the center of the podium and looked at the restless students below, but felt uncomfortable. He simply walked to the edge of the podium and was closer to them. He sat directly on the edge of the podium, aligned with their eyes and said with a smile:

"I'm not used to standing and chatting with people. I sat down and said, "Don't you mind, brothers?"

The students were stunned at first, and then laughed and shouted: "Director Li, you're comfortable, and you don't have to stand." "This relationship is good, so you don't have to raise your neck to look at people." The atmosphere suddenly became much more relaxed. "Li Chuangkuan" was indeed as its name, with a little crazy smell, and he actually called his students "brothers".

"The next time is very simple. If you have anything you want to say, just raise your hand and just talk about what I click." Li Xiaole smiled and said with a microphone.

Immediately, hundreds of hands were raised from the stage, and each one was impatient, as if he was afraid that someone would steal the title.

Li Xiaole looked at the person who held the highest hand and was actually an acquaintance. Wasn't this Xu Le who wronged Sun Li that day? So he smiled and pointed at him: "Which classmate wearing a red jacket is right? It's you. Please hand him the microphone to him and tell him the role you want to interview before expressing his opinion."

Under everyone's envious eyes, Xu Le, who was as thin as a monkey, took the microphone excitedly and said loudly: "Hello Director Li, my name is Xu Le. The role I interviewed is the founder in "Soldier Assault"." Then he commented:

"Actually, I think the most important thing about the movie is storyline. "Hero" is extremely lacking in this regard. It can be said that it is not as good as the previous works of Director Zhang's previous works such as "Living" and "Jupou". I think this is simply because Ang Lee's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was selected for the Oscar. If "Hero" was filmed just for fame and fortune, I must admit that Zhang Yimou and his team's performance was successful, but he lost the artistic conception of the work. I can't understand what he wanted to say. Why would Wuming, who went through great pains to kill Qin Shihuang, give up? He has a deep hatred for Qin Shihuang, and there is a huge problem with the logic of this character...

"Crazy Stone" has handled this much better..."

Li Xiaole listened to Xu Le's praise, and smiled and seemed very satisfied. This was the effect he wanted. He wanted to eliminate these idiots who had no observation skills. He wanted to choose a soldier role. It was very obvious what kind of actors with personality and temperament were. But most of these students were still pleasing themselves and forgot that this was an interview. Only those who had really prepared to figure out the roles could understand how to express themselves now.

After listening, I pointed at him and said, "I said it very well, the angle is very good, it is almost the same as what I thought."
Chapter completed!
