In the last fifteen minutes, Situ Zhaodun will allow students to ask questions freely, and he will answer any questions they have after watching the movie.
After that, continue to watch the next movie and watch the movie tutorials repeatedly.
Situ Zhaodun will explain and discuss various film theories. He will also introduce the characteristics of different film genres, from classic Hollywood to domestic independent films, from narrative structure to camera language, which he can easily touch upon.
At the end of the day, I have to watch at least four movies every day, but there will also be some practical sessions mixed in.
However, the practical courses of this era were not as convenient as those in later generations, because movies were still shot on film.
And film is not cheap, so practical courses are often particularly valuable and challenging.
Most people can only touch the film and old cameras with their own hands, feeling both excited and nervous.
Whether now or in the future, after graduating from the directing department, 90% of the students will not have the opportunity to direct a movie. Even 30% of them will change their careers or do behind-the-scenes work after graduation.
Because the film industry itself is a highly competitive field with limited resources.
Without talent, money, and connections, it is almost impossible to stand out in this industry.
The seventh and eighth level directing department enrolled 29 people, and finally 13 great directors emerged, with a success rate of half, which was unprecedented. This record has not been broken until 2024.
........。
For six consecutive days, they were either watching movies or on the way to watch movies. At first, they were happy and excited to watch movies for teaching every day, but as they watched movies every day, they gradually lost their novelty and interest in watching movies.
Nowadays, going to college is not only free of tuition, but also requires five and a half days of classes, with a day and a half off starting on Saturday afternoon.
Early the next morning, Zhang Qiurui said goodbye to Li Shaohong and Hu Mei and went out.
Today is a holiday, and Zhang Qiurui went to People's Literature to visit the editor-in-chief of People's Literature, Zhang Guangnian, and even thanked him for paving the way for him to enter the Yenching Film Academy and enter the directing department without taking an entrance exam.
"Qiurui, we will take two buses today and get off directly at the entrance of People's Literature. Everything is ready, we can go now." Early in the morning, Zhang Wenmin was waiting for Zhang Qiurui at the school gate. After seeing Zhang Qiurui, he greeted her and said.
"Okay, let's go. Second brother, you must have been to the city quite a lot these days!" Zhang Qiurui chatted with Zhang Wenfu as they walked, with a relaxed and casual tone in his voice.
"I went to the Forbidden City a few more times and inquired about housing prices. At the foot of the Imperial City, a large courtyard house costs 10,000 yuan, and smaller ones can be found for 7,000 or 8,000 yuan.
However, a quadrangle courtyard is often occupied by several families, so it's hard to find one. "Zhang Wenfu didn't forget the task his sister had given him. Over the past few days, he'd searched a lot of places and had a good idea of the prices of quadrangle courtyards near the Imperial City.
"There's no rush for this matter. Let's take our time to figure it out. I'd rather spend more time and money than get into any tangled issues.
"This is especially true for courtyards with multiple families living in them. It's the most troublesome. If a few families buy a house and another one doesn't want to sell, it's a very tricky situation, and there will be a lot of disputes later," Zhang Qiurui told her second brother.
"I know." Zhang Wenfu and Zhang Qiurui took the bus, talking along the way, and soon arrived at the gate of People's Literature.
"Young man, what procedures do we need to go in?" Zhang Wenfu walked to the security booth, handed the security guard a cigarette, and asked politely.
Seeing this, the security guard smiled slightly, waved his hand to refuse the cigarette, and said, "Are you here to submit an article? Or are you here to visit an editor or author? If so, you need to make an appointment in advance or have relevant personnel come out to meet you."
Zhang Wenfu scratched his head and looked at Zhang Qiurui, feeling a little overwhelmed.
Seeing this, Zhang Qiurui stepped forward and said, "Young man, please go and inform Editor Cui or Editor-in-Chief Zhang that Xiaoxiang Qingkong is visiting."
"Xiaoxiang Qingkong is visiting? Are you from Xiaoxiang? Are you Xiaoxiang Qingkong?" When the security guard heard that it was Xiaoxiang Qingkong who was visiting, his eyes suddenly lit up and he looked at Zhang Wenfu with shining eyes.
"I......."
"Hello, Teacher Xiaoxiang Qingkong, I will go and inform them right away. Please wait a moment." Before Zhang Wenfu could finish his words, he was interrupted by the security guard.
Then he ran towards the People's Literature Building.
In less than three minutes, Zhang Guangnian and Cui Liang walked out of the People's Literature Building quickly with expressions of surprise and anticipation on their faces.
"Hello, Teacher Xiaoxiang Qingkong, I am Zhang Guangnian, the editor-in-chief of People's Literature. It is a great honor to meet you today.
Since ancient times, heroes have emerged from youth. The ancients were not deceiving me. "Zhang Guangnian passed by Zhang Wenfu and walked up to Zhang Qiurui. He extended his hand enthusiastically and shook hands with Zhang Qiurui.
Cui Liang, standing by, was not to be outdone. He smiled and said to Zhang Qiurui, "Teacher Xiaoxiang Qingkong, I've long heard of your name. I'm Cui Liang, the editor responsible for proofreading and typesetting your work. I read every issue of your work and benefit a lot from it."
Zhang Wenfu watched on in amazement, muttering to himself, "My little sister's reputation is truly remarkable. Even the editor-in-chief of People's Literature came out to greet her personally."
On the other hand, the security guard showed a look of shock when he saw Xiaoxiang Qingkong was a teenage girl, but he quickly regained his professional demeanor and stood quietly by, secretly admiring her in his heart: "You can't judge a person by appearance, and you can't measure the depth of the sea by a bucket."
Zhang Qiurui felt a little embarrassed by the editors' enthusiasm. She smiled and replied, "Editor-in-Chief Zhang, Editor Cui, you're so polite. It's my greatest honor to receive your recognition. I came here mainly to personally thank you for your support and help."
Zhang Guangnian's smile brightened when he heard this: "Teacher Xiaoxiang Qingkong, you're too polite. Let's go to my office and talk."
The four of them walked into the People's Literature Building together. The interior of the building was spacious and bright, with a reasonable layout and a rich cultural atmosphere.
Zhang Wenfu walked while carefully observing the surrounding environment, his heart filled with awe and yearning for the palace of literature.
After arriving at Zhang Guangnian's office and making some tea, Zhang Qiurui also presented him with today's thank-you gift.
Seeing that it was just a basket of fruit, Zhang Guangnian did not refuse. He asked Cui Liang to wash some of it and bring it up for him to eat with Zhang Qiurui and the others. As for the rest, he distributed it directly to other editors of People's Literature who were at work.
