Chapter 277: How about once?(2/2)
"Let's go practice piano."
"You've worked so hard, so keep going."
"Teacher Yu, Teacher Cheng, please continue, we are leaving."
"..."
The two girls left with smiles on their faces. Yu Dong looked at their backs, then turned to look at Cheng Yanqiu, "Shall we continue?"
"Keep going."
Cheng Yanqiu ran away.
…
Zhang Yimou wanted to keep a low profile, but he simply couldn't.
All the students of the drama school knew that someone special was coming to teach them that day. They didn't know who it was at first, but then Zhang Yimou came and their eyes dropped to the floor.
"Director Zhang!"
The cheers that broke out in the classroom quickly attracted the attention of other students. After someone recognized Zhang Yimou, the news spread quickly in the school.
Things change as they are passed around.
"Zhang Yimou came to our school to teach."
This was the version that Yu Dong finally heard in the office.
"Zhang Yimou comes to teach in our school?"
"It's not surprising. Yu Hua has already come to our school and Zhang Yimou is here to be a guest teacher. What's the point?"
"Zhang Yimou is coming next semester. Who will he teach this semester?"
"I heard it's a theater creation class."
"Does the drama creation class have directing classes or photography classes?"
"Probably not, who knows?"
This news triggered a discussion among the teachers in the office. They talked about everything, but it seemed that they all believed that Zhang Yimou really came to teach.
Jinyi has indeed developed very well in the past two years, appearing frequently in major newspapers, and its soft and hard power has increased sharply, so that the teachers and students of the school are becoming more and more confident.
If it had been two years ago that Zhang Yimou came to teach at Jinyi, no one would have believed it.
In the end, Yu Dong, an insider, explained it to them.
"Oh, it turns out I'm here to give an impromptu lecture."
"But if there is one, there are two. Maybe he will be a guest teacher next semester."
…
Wu Changxin knew in advance that Zhang Yimou went to give lectures to the theater creation class. He respected Zhang Yimou's wishes and did not make any announcement or even attend the lecture.
Now that the news had spread like wildfire, there was nothing to hide, so he went to meet Zhang Yimou openly.
By the way, I extended an invitation to him: You can come to Jinyi more often in the future. If you like, the school can open a class specifically for him.
Zhang Yimou did not refuse or agree. He only said that he was very busy recently and could not come to Jinyi to teach.
Wu Changxin sensed that Zhang Yimou had left a way for him, and he might actually be able to come here in the future.
As for the students in the drama creation class, they were of course very enthusiastic about Zhang Yimou's arrival, and among them Jia Zhangke's performance was undoubtedly the most eye-catching.
As a theater student, Jia Zhangke has studied a lot about photography and directing.
Although in Zhang Yimou's view, the so-called "professional knowledge" that Jia Zhangke learned was a bit weak, it is not easy for a drama student to have such an understanding of film shooting.
In comparison, the others were much weaker. Some students shouted that they wanted to make movies, but the things they talked about were still limited to words.
Later, Zhang Yimou chatted with Jia Zhangke alone for a while, and learned that Jia Zhangke had the idea of making a movie because of "Yellow Earth", and he looked at this guy even more differently.
"Yellow Earth" is Zhang Yimou's proud work. He won several photography awards with this film, which completely established his reputation in the photography industry.
Later, before leaving Jinyi, Zhang Yimou told Yu Dong and Bi Feiyu: "The students you created are all pretty good, but if you say that the only one who can be a director and support a movie is Jia Zhangke. If
If there is a chance, we still need to train him in this direction."
Bi Feiyu said unexpectedly, "It seems that you are very optimistic about Jia Zhangke."
"He is a good young man and has his own understanding of movies, which is not easy at his age."
After Zhang Yimou left, Bi Feiyu scratched his head worriedly, "It's okay that Zhang Yimou didn't say anything. After hearing what he said, I'm afraid that our training is not in place and that boy Jia Zhangke is delayed."
Yu Dong patted Bi Feiyu on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry too much. Jia Zhangke has great ideas. Whatever he wants, he will take the initiative to work in that direction. We teachers cannot be like nannies in the study of college students."
Worrying about everything, what we have to do is to find a general direction for them and then cooperate with them. Besides, it is not easy for you to invite Zhang Yimou to give lectures to them."
One class can't say much, but as a film master, Zhang Yimou's class can open up a vast world for students. Whether it is a door, a window or a small hole, students can see everything.
to that wonderful world.
Bi Feiyu smiled: "I worked hard this time, it's your turn next time."
"The last time I took the students to the United States, didn't it count as an effort?"
But Bi Feiyu complained, "Hey, talking about this, I want to talk about you. Last time, all the students I took were art students. Why didn't I take a few theater students and let them go to the United States to study advanced film?
Isn’t industry more suitable than students from the art department?”
"Okay, then last time doesn't count. I'll try harder next time, okay?"
Chapter completed!
