Chapter 688(1/2)
(I wish you all a happy New Year, and hope that in the new year everyone will be prosperous and the sesame seeds will bloom steadily!)
The boss, Wei Xu, said: "This is indeed the case. Now it's just about performance!"
"It's just, third child, so our dormitory 402 is going to be broken up!"
The scene was silent for a moment!
Zheng Jiaming said: "There is always a banquet in the world. In fact, after the New Year, I plan to move out of the dormitory again."
Li Dong said: "So, third child, you plan to live with Chu Lin?"
Zheng Jiaming's face turned red and he said, "I do have this idea. Recently, I have been looking for a house outside the school."
Wei Xu smiled and said: "Actually, Lin Mengxi also told me that she dislikes hotels because they are unhygienic!"
Li Dong also smiled and said: "Okay! So do you!"
"Well, there is a real estate near the school, which happened to be developed by my family in cooperation with others. There are finely decorated rooms in it. Although it is an ordinary two-bedroom apartment, it is quite good for us to be neighbors."
Zheng Jiaming: "I agree. The house is too big and the living space is empty. Two bedrooms is just right. I have no problem."
Wei Xu: "Of course I don't want to be separated from my brothers, but I would like the house to be bigger and have three bedrooms. If there are three bedrooms, I have no problem!"
Li Dong: "Of course he has it. Don't worry, I'll ask them to arrange a cost price for you!"
"By the way, Fourth Brother, what do you say!"
Xie Yu raised his wine glass and said, "I can have two rooms, but it's just the price!"
Li Dong: "Don't worry, it's all at cost!"
Zheng Jiaming raised his glass and said: "Long live brother!"
"Long live!"
"Long live!"
"I'll go, who wants to be the emperor?"
"Of course it's Director Zheng!"
"Don't talk nonsense. It would be bad if Chu Lin knew about it."
But in the end, Xie Yu bought a fully decorated house with three bedrooms and two living rooms for a total price of 2.3 million.
Others have also made such a choice, just talk about it for two households.
However, this is already a very good deal in Yangcheng, where housing prices are starting to soar.
Of course, Xie Yu still gave two million to his family as planned, and his parents automatically saved it for Xie Yu, saying it would be used to buy a house.
Regarding sister, Xie Yu also made up a reason.
I transferred two million to her and asked her to buy a house so that she would not have to worry about renting in the future.
This is a bit shocking to senior students who have already gone to school in Qindao and want to stay and work in Qindao after graduation.
My sister called me for half an hour and said that her pain was indeed not in vain.
Then he asked directly if making movies was really that profitable, and if she wouldn't be counted as a share.
Xie Yu naturally promised that next time there was investment, he would get her a share.
However, it is true that filmmaking is a very risky industry, and the 80/20 rule is indeed rampant.
Although Xie Yu made an author-style movie script, he did capture the essence of some low-budget movies.
Sure enough, when I returned home this time, the house was much more lively.
Many acquaintances who contributed to the box office of Xie Yu's movies consider themselves heroes.
Many people began to ask what the crew was like and how the movie was made.
Regarding these "finance owners", Xie Yu answered most of them if he could, and was vague about those that he couldn't answer.
Many relatives thought it was a good job, and even thought of getting laid and working for Xie Yu, while Xie Yu would just take care of the food.
This was impossible at the time, completely impossible. Xie Yu knew them too well. It was so normal for them to bully others with power, pretend to be powerful, and do one thing in front of others and another behind their backs.
He just said that he would be a student in the future and would write scripts, and it was the director’s job to hire people.
Then, Xie Yu was dragged into tutoring their children in composition.
So depressed!
So after the new year, just after the fifteenth year, Xie Yu returned to school early.
Of course, go back to school early.
One is, because I need to move to a new house.
Second, I have to go through the process of transferring departments. At this point, there is only one name left in dormitory 402.
However, since the accommodation fee paid is still for one semester, dormitory 402 will not be refunded.
In the next semester, Xie Yu will come back to live often. After all, living alone sometimes will be really boring if you don't find something to do for yourself.
So Xie Yu, who often reads in the school library, sometimes persists until the last minute to rush people out. How interesting!
After the start of the new semester, Xie Yu successfully transferred to the junior screenwriting class at the Art College. However, the tuition fees at the Art College were unexpectedly expensive. It cost 30,000 yuan per year, which was six or seven times that of the finance school.
Fortunately, Xie Yu is not short of money. When he first entered the screenwriting class, everyone was quite curious about Xie Yu. After all, Xie Yu's appearance was too strange.
Although the screenwriting department and all art departments have the lowest looks, they are above average. If Xie Yu hadn't made a low-cost exploitation horror movie, they wouldn't even watch Xie Yu!
And on the first day after entering the screenwriting class, the class teacher Yao finished the introduction, which was the first thing I did after Xie Yu.
This fulfilled one of Xie Yu's wishes in life, which was to show movies during class in broad daylight, and in an honest and fair manner.
It’s just that when I think it’s Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf written by Xie Yu, why do I feel a little ashamed!
Especially because this movie was made by students from our school. Although they are not students from the School of Art, everyone is still very enthusiastic about it.
However, Xie Yu felt bad when he commented while reading.
Basically every other paragraph, someone says that the processing of this paragraph is not artistic enough or something.
"The great French director said..., the British director said..., the German director said..., the Italian director said..."
"What should be added to this paragraph to deal with frizz."
"This paragraph makes no sense. The lead actor's lines are too bad and the supporting characters are too few."
"It doesn't make sense that this kind of rubbish movie has box office success. There must be something behind it!"
"What's the inside story? The screenwriter is from a small city, his family and art are not compatible, and there are no beautiful female characters in the movie. I guess it's just luck!"
…
In the midst of suffering, the movie finally ended.
The head teacher, Teacher Yao, first led the students and applauded sparsely!
Then he said: "Students, now we invite Xie Yu to come up and answer some of our questions."
This made the applause much louder. Although he was caught off guard, Xie Yu still bravely walked towards the podium.
However, Xie Yu, who was a little nervous, just came to the podium and changed his position. Xie Yu laughed at himself: "Students, you may not understand the feeling of being blocked by the table, so I'd better move my position!"
As soon as this playful self-deprecating remark was said, there was laughter in the classroom, and the atmosphere immediately became more lively.
Then, the head teacher, Teacher Yao, smiled and said: "It seems that our classmate Xie Yu has a quite humorous personality, but I wonder if you can tell us about the background of your script creation and the inspiration for your creation at that time!"
Xie Yu: “No problem, no problem, I just don’t know where to start.”
Teacher Yao, the head teacher: “Let’s first talk about the motivation for creating the script!”
Xie Yu "Is it an inducement?"
"The inducement is also very simple. I was reading in the library at the time, and the girlfriend of the third child in our dormitory was cheated on by her boyfriend because she had experience as an actress."
"I just want his boyfriend to write a movie about cleaning up a scumbag."
"By the way, the third child is Zheng Jiaming. He has also transferred to the directing class now."
Immediately there were voices in the audience saying "Huh...".
"The third child naturally dragged us into the water. The League of Legends was going crazy at that time and they didn't even have time to play games. They had no time, so this task naturally fell on me."
"Because there is only a budget of 1 million, and there are two professional actors. In fact, the professional actors at least take the normal budget as salary."
"I can only think about using the fewest scenes and the fewest people as possible. Anyway, I am trying to save money."
"As for the artistry everyone talks about, I really don't understand. I come from a small county town, and my ancestors are farmers, so I have no connection with artists."
"My reference books are all "Classic Three Paragraphs", "Leopard Head and Phoenix Tail", "What's the Most Economical", and "Price-Performance Paragraphs".
At this moment, someone in the audience immediately whispered: "No wonder, it smells like cheap craftsmanship."
Xie Yu naturally did not respond.
On the other hand, the head teacher, Teacher Yao, said: "Thank you, classmate, then according to you, this is a propositional author's film."
Xie Yu roughly understood the meaning of these words and replied: "Absolutely!"
