Before the training course officially started, the TVB groups responsible for this project gathered together for a discussion.
Principal Zhong Jinghui leaned on the dressing table, and the other responsible persons also found a comfortable position in the narrow space.
"Xiao Du, your person in charge is not here this time, so you listen here." Zhong Jinghui said to Du Qifeng.
Du Qifeng nodded. He was no longer very concerned about this. In a few months after the Chinese New Year, he would join Wu Changyun's Qi Ji Film Company.
"There are 24 students this time. Because there is no age limit for registration, the membership is more complex."
Zhong Jinghui took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes. This was the third training session since its establishment, and Zhong Jinghui had attended three sessions.
What is different from the beginning is that many people now realize that it is really possible to become an actor after graduating from a training class, and there are many students who graduated from famous universities.
"The biggest problem right now is the instructors. TVB has many directors, but unfortunately not many of them are truly capable of guiding students."
Zhong Jinghui's words seemed a bit modest to others. He was the president of the Drama Association and had taught two classes before, so he definitely had the qualifications to teach.
Du Qifeng glanced at the others. These foreigners were pretty good at arranging props and setting up a camera.
Du Qifeng can definitely be a mentor, but others may not have heard of the movies he made, or to be more precise, they may not know that they were made by him.
After "New Wusheng" became a hit, many people asked him questions. After all, he was credited as an assistant director, so those who asked were laymen, and those who knew the business would never ask.
"This is an old trick that has no future." Du Qifeng thought to himself.
Zhong Jinghui comes from a drama background and specializes in stage plays, while the current students are here to study film.
"Everyone, do you have any suitable candidates to recommend?" Zhong Jinghui asked everyone with some embarrassment.
"No?"
Zhong Jinghui swallowed and thought that he would have to trouble the younger generation in the association.
"I have a proposal, but I need to contact him first."
Du Qifeng couldn't bear to see Zhong Jinghui continue to be in trouble. Being a mentor was not a hard job.
"Okay, who is it?"
"Wu Changyun."
Du Qifeng replied.
Zhong Jinghui didn't know Wu Changyun, but the others were very excited when they heard this name.
"The director of Shinbusheng?"
"Yes, it's the one called Feng."
After all, it was a movie made a year ago. To the outside world, it seems that Wu Changyun did not direct any works that year. Only those who care about the overseas market know that Wu Changyun was not idle that year.
"Great! He's young and should get along well with the students."
"I think it's difficult. He's too young. Being a mentor would be a bit..."
Zhong Jinghui was confused. He had never heard of this person before.
"How old is he?" Zhong Jinghui asked.
"He looks to be in his 20s."
"That's indeed a very young age." Zhong Jinghui looked at Du Qifeng while speaking, hoping he could explain.
"Being young is not a big deal. I followed him for a while and benefited a lot from his innovation and ideas."
Du Qifeng deliberately used the four words "benefited greatly" because he indeed learned a lot from Wu Changyun.
"You?" Zhong Jinghui was a little hesitant. In fact, he didn't know what works Du Qifeng had.
"You're not making a movie." Immediately, questioning voices were heard.
"New Takesheng is said to be the assistant director."
"Assistant director? Is that true?"
There were also people present who did not want to participate in this meaningless discussion. The film industry was so chaotic nowadays that it was not uncommon to spend some money to get the qualifications of an assistant director.
This is the reason why Du Qifeng is unwilling to speak and why he always feels that the TVB environment is not suitable for him.
"If Brother Zhong thinks it's okay, I'll contact him and ask, but he's currently planning something for a film company, so I don't know if he has time."
The four words "film company" immediately widened the gap in status.
There are basically two types of people who set up film companies now: one is those who came from Shaw Brothers before 70 years ago, and the other is those who came from Shaw Brothers after 70 years.
As the name suggests, the period before 1970 refers to Golden Harvest, and the period after 1970 is also based on the expansion of Shaw Brothers.
"Let's put it aside for now." Zhong Jinghui sighed. People who work in a film company may not come here to be mentors just for the salary.
"Playing such a big game?"
"Yeah, it's a bit difficult to invite such people."
Some who had been silent earlier were now whispering amongst themselves, because when it came to film companies, they were definitely serious and professional.
After much discussion, the issue was still not resolved. Du Qifeng went outside to smoke in frustration.
"I knew it would be hard to get results with too many people. Everyone is timid. How can we get it done?" Du Qifeng said, spreading his hands.
Zhong Shaobing was also present. Seeing Du Qifeng's distressed look, he stepped forward to comfort him.
"It is said that most of the students this year are beautiful women," said Zhong Shaobing.
"Really? And it's really interesting to go to work every day."
"Teacher Du, is my collar a little crooked? Can you help me take a look?" Zhong Shaobing said in a deliberately effeminate voice.
"The damn collar is crooked. Can you teach me how to make a collar crooked? Besides, it's a clothing problem."
"At the scene, aren't we just costumes?" Zhong Shaobing said with a wicked smile.
They are actually the closest to the artists. In addition to performing on stage, the artists also have many trivial matters in their daily lives. Sometimes even the allocation of bunk beds requires them to coordinate.
