Chapter 375 The Liberation of Nature
It's amazing.
Everyone on the "Hawthorn Tree" crew discovered that Zhou Dongyu was different after Qin Muchu's lecture.
It's not that his acting skills were completely transformed and he suddenly became a movie queen-level actor.
Still NG, the scene where he asked Director Li for work took three takes after Qin Muchu finished explaining the scene.
However, these three items are getting better and better with each passing day, and Zhou Dongyu's condition is obviously completely different from before.
To outsiders, he seems confident. After each take, he takes the initiative to go to the monitor to see how the shot was.
As for Zhou Dongyu herself, how can she describe her current feeling of filming...
Like students learning.
Before, she was completely confused about "study", so not only was she unable to learn, she even became tired of learning and afraid of learning.
But now, she enjoys the process of "learning". Every time she looks at the monitor and finds that the image of herself in it is closer to the image of "Jingqiu" in her heart, she feels full of accomplishment.
"It's about finding a role."
After getting off the show, Wang Jinsong looked at Zhou Dongyu on the set and said.
He turned to look at Qin Muchu aside and said with a smile:
"It's incredible, a few words can have such an effect."
Qin Muchu also retracted his gaze from Zhou Dongyu and said modestly:
"Actually, she has the character in her heart, but she has blocked it up. I just opened it up for her."
"Hawthorn Tree" confirmed Zhou Dongyu to play the female lead in February. After reading the script for several months, Zhou Dongyu must have read the script and novel by heart.
The role of Jingqiu has long been engraved in her mind, but it was her first time acting and she didn't know how to express the role in her heart.
To put it simply, it means full marks in theory but lack of practical experience.
Qin Muchu believes that even without herself, she can slowly find her form after working in the crew for a while.
After all, Lao Mouzi is also famous for being good at training actors.
It's just that the scenes that have been filmed before cannot be reshot, and the actors' acting skills may fluctuate in the movie.
"It's hard to find a way to get through this. I say you are born to be an acting teacher."
Wang Jinsong patted Qin Muchu's arm with a look like "Young man, I'm very optimistic about you."
"correct."
Thinking of something, he looked around, leaned forward and whispered:
"The school has passed the summer camp thing."
"Really? That's great."
Qin Muchu's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but smile.
Summer camp, the full name is Yanying Performance Department 10th grade summer camp.
Based on the principle of voluntariness, Yanying Club will notify students to voluntarily participate after the admission list of the Performance Department is released.
It will last about a month, during which some seniors in the industry will give them various forms of lectures and give them grades.
This score is not only the teacher's evaluation of them, but also determines their role in the final short film of the summer camp.
There is teaching, there is practice, there is competition.
Qin Muchu thought hard for a long time and combined it with some variety shows he had watched in his previous life before he came up with this summer camp.
"However, there was a little surprise."
Wang Jinsong said suddenly, his expression a little embarrassed.
"what happened?"
"The school cannot decide on the summer camp privately. It must report to the relevant departments..."
Qin Muchu nodded.
This is normal.
Yanying is a public university, and it has a leadership department, but the summer camp is not a big deal. There are only a few dozen students in the performance department, and the registration process is simple.
But looking at Wang Jinsong's hesitant look, he guessed:
"The superiors don't agree?"
"That's not it."
Wang Jinsong waved his hands continuously,
"With just this report, other schools also know about our summer camp, which is mainly for Chinese drama and upper drama. Both of them have some ideas..."
Qin Muchu actually didn't care that other schools knew about the summer camp. It was impossible to hide this matter from the insiders. Even if there was no such thing as "reporting", the news would definitely spread gradually.
He was actually interested in what Wang Jinsong said about the idea of China Theater and Shanghai Theater, and asked:
"They want to run a summer camp too?"
"almost."
Wang Jinsong had a strange expression.
But Qin Muchu didn't notice it and said with a smile:
"You can do whatever you want, I don't charge royalties."
Most students who take the acting department don't have much in-depth understanding of this industry. They just envy the glamor of stars on TV, so they sign up.
I have no idea what an actor is, what a good actor is, and how to become a good actor.
The summer camp is to give them a layer of background color when they are still blank sheets of paper. As for whether this background color will pollute it in the future...
Do your best, listen to destiny.
It is definitely a good thing for China Theater and Shanghai Theater to organize similar summer camps to give more students a "understanding".
Wang Jinsong's expression became even more strange, and he coughed twice:
"The Chinese Theater and the Shanghai Theater are right in their plans, but they feel that if they were to run them separately, they would have to re-plan, which would be a waste of time and energy and appear to be less united, so..."
Qin Muchu's eyes widened and his tone suddenly increased:
"They want to have sex for free?"
"Cough cough."
Wang Jinsong started coughing again. He didn't admit it, but he didn't deny it either.
Qin Muchu was a little depressed now.
Although he supports Chinese Theater and Shanghai Theater to organize summer camps, this does not mean that he wants the three schools to jointly organize summer camps. This will cause a lot of trouble.
For example, if three schools are combined, the number of students will increase several times.
At Qin Muchu's suggestion, Yanying's Grade 10 class only admitted one class, which already had 30 students.
There is only one class for the Chinese Theater and the Upper Theater, and there are 90 people in the three schools together!
With so many students, the difficulty of teaching, management and other aspects during the summer camp will definitely increase significantly.
The key may also affect the effectiveness of summer camp.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but frowned:
"The school agrees?"
Wang Jinsong obviously also knew the trouble if the three schools held a summer camp together, but this matter was not something that he, the head of the acting department, could decide. He said with a bitter look on his face:
"No, the school is also aware of the difficulties. We are discussing with the Central Theater and the Shanghai Theater to see if we can find a solution that has both sides."
"Hopefully."
Qin Muchu heaved a long sigh.
Anyway, he has done everything he can do. If a good thing turns into a bad thing, there is nothing he can do about it.
Suddenly he remembered something and asked again:
"What about the teacher?"
Teaching teaches, teachers are the key.
When he handed over the summer camp planning proposal to the school, he also handed in a list of teachers he hoped to invite.
Of course, he can also invite himself.
But isn’t that stupid?
When it comes to public matters, you have to sell your own favors.
"Don't worry about this. Unless someone really has something to do, I will definitely invite them all."
Wang Jinsong immediately patted his chest in assurance.
He was also a little embarrassed in his heart. They had made a good pot of porridge, but the school did not help much, but tended to disturb the situation. It would be really shameful if they couldn't even invite the teacher.
Qin Muchu nodded, not doubting the authenticity of Wang Jinsong's words.
Over the years, Yan Ying has usually kept herself quiet, but if she really spoke up, almost no one would deny her face.
After all, one of the three major art schools...
Qin Muchu was startled and then said:
"With the unexpected situation of being in a theater and being in a theater, I'm afraid the list of teachers will also change, right?"
Wang Jinsong was stunned for a moment and understood.
Regardless of whether the final result of the school negotiation is a joint effort among the three schools or separate schools, the list of teachers will be affected.
In the former, as the number of students increases, the number of teachers is bound to increase as well.
The latter involves a far-reaching issue.
The same teacher has been invited by multiple schools. Which one do you think he should go to?
It must be my alma mater.
Among the list of teachers given by Qin Muchu, he remembered that there were those who graduated from the Chinese Opera and the First Theater.
Co-authored, the school still didn't solve a single problem.
……
"Mom, are my brother and sister in love?"
"Don't talk nonsense, you know what love is."
"I know that talking about love, holding hands, and kissing are all about falling in love."
The childish words caused a burst of laughter from the women beating their clothes on the river bank, and some joked:
"Sister Wang, it's early for me to become sensible."
"Yes, Sister Wang will not have to worry about her daughter-in-law from now on."
"Little Erzi" stroked the prickly hair of the little boy. He was still young and couldn't tell what was a compliment and what was a tease, so he smiled very happily.
Little did he know that his mother was already gritting her teeth and preparing to go home and cook a meal for him.
This is the riverside of the small village.
The women's teasing made Zhou Dongyu and Dou Xiao blush and become nervous.
The kid was right, they were indeed in love.
But it is "love by decree".
The cause lies with Zhou Dongyu.
Yesterday, Qin Muchu gave her some advice and she began to enjoy acting. Even if she was "stuck", she still wanted to figure out how to act better, instead of being afraid of escaping.
In this state, Lao Mouzi Long Yan was delighted.
After filming the original scenes, another scene was temporarily added - a scene between the male and female protagonists.
You know, this scene is a "taboo" for the "Hawthorn Tree" crew.
Zhou Dongyu's scenes with other people were barely adequate, and if he had done it seventy, eight, ninety times, he would still be passable.
But filming a scene where the male and female protagonists are opposite each other is simply a disaster, the kind that you can’t even watch.
Not only did he and Dou Xiao not call, he also had the awkward and awkward feeling of meeting his blind date for the first time.
This temporary additional filming was because Lao Mouzi wanted to see if Zhou Dongyu was really "cured" by Qin Muchu.
As a result, Zhou Dongyu "lived up to expectations" and once again contributed an embarrassing acting performance of epic proportions.
Qin Muchu, who was watching on the other side of the monitor, was silent, thinking: If you two are really not familiar with each other, then stop talking. There is no need to hang yourself from a tree.
But this is a movie, not reality, so he can't really persuade her like this.
Just as he was shaking his head, he saw a pair of vicissitudes of life and expectant eyes.
Yes, I understand.
Without Lao Mouzi's greeting, he went up to enlighten Zhou Dongyu again.
But this time we ran into trouble.
No matter how eloquent he was, Zhou Dongyu remained unmoved.
Even though she said "Yeah, I understand", she was still so awkward and unnatural when acting.
In four years of working in the industry, Qin Muchu has never encountered an actor who is so difficult to train.
It's not so difficult to tell a story to that girl Sun Bijuan.
Fortunately, he didn't gain anything in the end. He learned from Zhou Dongyu the reason why his acting was not good - he had never been in love, sorry.
How to explain this reason? If it were a professional actor who said this, Qin Muchu would ask, "Does it mean I have to give you a real shot to play the role of being shot?"
It's not that he has a venomous tongue, but the reason is just too weird.
Actors themselves play other people's roles, and their own imagination or artistic creation is indispensable.
没做过什么所以演不了，这话简直就像“没学过1+2等于几，只知道1+1＝2”一样可笑。
But he can't be so hostile to Zhou Dongyu because he is not a professional actor.
A few months ago, she was an ordinary art candidate. Before filming "The Hawthorn Tree", she had no acting experience and had never studied acting.
For such a special actor, you can't always ask her in the same way as a professional actor.
Qin Muchu remembered that one of the reasons why Lao Mouzi chose Zhou Dongyu as the heroine was that she had never been in love.
As pure as Jingqiu.
But now this "purity" has become a difficulty in film shooting.
Just when Qin Muchu wanted to express that he had no choice, Lao Mouzi stood up from the monitor, shouted "call it a day", and patted Qin Muchu on the shoulder:
"Your students, as teachers, have to be responsible."
Then, holding the tea cup, they leisurely discussed something with the assistant director.
This left Qin Muchu speechless for a while.
Find out if it's okay.
She became your movie heroine first, and then became my student...
No, you are not necessarily my student yet.
What if the college entrance examination score is not enough?
But there was no way, Lao Mouzi obviously wanted to leave the trouble to him.
I was very happy when I was filming "Love Letter", but now I have to repay my debt.
Qin Muchu thought about it over and over, and he actually came up with an idea.
Didn't Zhou Dongyu say that he can't act well unless he has never been in love?
OK, let me talk now.
The target is Dou Xiao.
Of course, not really.
Instead, let them live as a couple in Qinglong Bay (the filming location of "The Hawthorn Tree").
Hold hands, talk about love, and go to the same room again in the evening... report today's gains to Qin Muchu and Lao Mouzi, and perform a show.
Today is the first day, and neither of them can let go very much.
In fact, they can still communicate normally in private. They can't be said to be very close, but they can still be regarded as friends.
But when it comes to acting, he gets blinded.
Dou Xiao is better than Zhou Dongyu, but not so good.
Although he studied acting at Yanying for two years, he never practiced it.Moreover, acting is acting. He can give himself psychological hints in front of the camera, and everything is fake.
But now that he is away from the camera and falling in love in reality, even if it is fake, he will inevitably feel a little embarrassed.
But after all, he is a man, and he cannot just stand by the river and wait for a girl to take the initiative.
He glanced at Zhou Dongyu who was poking there like a wooden stake, licked his lips and said:
"Ahem, Xiaoyu, let's start?"
Zhou Dongyu was lowering his head, and his body trembled nervously when he heard Dou Xiao's words.
They didn't choose to come to the river blindly today.
They had several scenes here in "The Hawthorn Tree", one of which was the most "crazy" and the largest scene in the movie - taking off their coats and having a water fight in the water.
Of course they didn't come here to act out the scene directly, and they didn't need to "fall in love by order" if they were so relaxed.
But there are still water fights, just without taking off the clothes.
This proposal was made by Zhou Dongyu. She had made up her mind at first, but when she got to the river, she hesitated again.
Too many people.
Before she came here, she didn't know there were so many people washing clothes by the river.
How embarrassing it would be to have a water fight with Dou Xiao in front of these people.
Coupled with the teasing from children and women, she was even more embarrassed.
Seeing Zhou Dongyu didn't answer for a long time, Dou Xiao touched his nose.
It was not easy for him to force a girl to have a water fight. If she was misunderstood as a pervert, it would be difficult to defend herself.
After thinking about it, he said:
"How about we change the scene?"
"Ok?"
Zhou Dongyu finally raised his head and looked at Dou Xiao doubtfully.
"That's when I gave you money to buy volleyball uniforms."
Zhou Dongyu remembered which scene Dou Xiao was talking about.
In the play, the third child leaves by boat, and Jingqiu follows secretly, finally breaking through the psychological barrier and shouting "Chang Lin, you have money in your pocket" from the shore, which is actually to the third child.
The third child understood, jumped off the boat, gave Zhou Dongyu the money in his pocket, asked her to buy a jersey, and then waded back to the boat.
This scene only requires Dou Xiao to enter the water, and she only needs to be on the shore.
It can be said that the "two-person water fight" has become a "single-person water play".
Zhou Dongyu was a little moved. Although it was still embarrassing to shout out the lines in the play in front of so many people, it was much better than having a water fight.
But this was her, and Dou Xiao was no less embarrassed.
She was a little strange:
"Aren't you embarrassed that there are so many people?"
Dou Xiao looked at the aunts on the river bank who looked at them from time to time, and smiled heartily:
"Actually, it's okay... By the way, you haven't entered school yet. When you enter the film school, there is a special class called 'Liberating Nature'. You play the role of a puppy in front of the whole class. You kneel on the ground and imitate the barking of a dog. These are common occurrences, and after experiencing that, this kind of scene is not too difficult to accept now.”
Does Yanying still have such a course?
Zhou Dongyu almost shudders when he imagines himself imitating a puppy.
This is not liberating nature, it is simply...
She has never experienced the afterlife, otherwise she would know that there is a word called "social death" that perfectly explains that scene.
Swallowing saliva:
"Is this class necessary?"
"must."
Dou Xiao nodded heavily,
"All acting students have to take this class."
Hearing that he could not escape this disaster, Zhou Dongyu's eyes suddenly darkened.
But on second thought.
All students in the acting department had to take this class, and everyone had to accompany him to do this, and his mood suddenly improved a little.
It even gave rise to a gossip mentality:
"Then Teacher Qin also attended this class? How good was he in acting, a puppy?"
"do not know."
Dou Xiao shook his head,
"There are very few rumors about Director Qin in the school. The seniors in Grade 06 rarely disclose information about Director Qin, and the revelations are always positive."
This is normal.
Although Qin Muchu and them were classmates, there was a big status gap after all. Few people would not think twice about spreading bad words about Qin Muchu. What if something happened to him in the future?
Zhou Dongyu was a little disappointed not to hear the gossip, and then heard Dou Xiao say again:
"But I heard that Senior Sister Yang Mi was very relaxed when she freed her nature. She played a madman rolling on the ground without any baggage."
There was some admiration in his tone.
You may feel embarrassed when you experience the liberation of your nature, but when it comes to acting, you realize how important that lesson is.
Now when I think back to the "thick-skinned people" who worked extremely hard to liberate their nature, I realize how smart they are.
Zhou Dongyu, on the other hand, didn't have so many thoughts, he was just shocked by this gossip.
This kind of gossip is not in the newspapers, and only "insiders" may know about it.
While yearning for it, I also longed to eat more melons.
"Are there any interesting things about other celebrities? Where is Liu Xiqian? She is also Yan Ying's, right?"
"Senior Sissi, it's been a while, I just heard..."
The gossip grew more and more, and before they knew it, the two of them were sitting on the ground by the river bank. The more they talked, the closer they got.
Viewed from the back, it looks like a couple leaning together...
……
In the evening, Lao Mouzi and Qin Muchu sat in the room after finishing their work.
Qin Muchu, who has been here for this day, sighed:
"It's a pity that the filming location for the second season of "Longing" has already been decided, otherwise this would be a good place."
The scenery of Qinglong Bay is really good, with beautiful mountains and clear waters. It is not polluted by the outside world. It still retains the style of the 70s and [-]s, and has a tranquility like a paradise.
Zhang Yimou first nodded in agreement, then shook his head:
"This is what we think. People in the village think this is backwardness and poverty."
Qin Muchu was speechless.
This is an unsolvable problem.
If you really want to say it, it is very likely that "what you can't get is always in turmoil."
Zhang Yimou had no intention of discussing this topic. When Qin Muchu mentioned "Longing", he asked:
"Has filming started for the second season of this show? Can you catch it while promoting "The Hawthorn Tree"?"
Last year, he went to "Longing" to promote "Three Guns". He had a good impression, unlike other shows...
It doesn’t matter whether it is utilitarian or purposeful.
In short, "Longing" made him feel very comfortable.
A group of people chatted endlessly, looked for ingredients, and cooked. It was very life-like and real.
"Longing" has no script.
When the interest arose, he even went to the fields to pick corn himself, but was ridiculed by his fellow villagers for not knowing how to work.
The kind without any malice.
Later, under the guidance of a fellow villager, I got started without picking two. The fellow villager praised him for his talent.
He smiled and said nothing.
It's not that he has talent, he just knows how to do the work.
It may be an exaggeration to say that this program allowed him to find his former self, but it is true that it brought him some feelings.
"If we can catch up, "Longing" will be recorded in June." Qin Muchu said.
"Hawthorn Tree" will probably be completed in June and may not be released until August, September, or even October.
But it doesn't matter.
The program is recorded and then broadcasted before the movie is released.
Anyway, "Longing" is updated once a week and has more than ten issues per season, so it has to be aired for two or three months.
There is absolutely enough time.
"The guest list has not yet been decided. It will be a great success for you to join the program again."
Zhang Yimou smiled.
Qin Muchu's words were complimenting him. He had heard Zhang Mo say that "Longing" had become one of the most popular variety shows in the country by the time the first season ended.
Only "Happy Camp" can compete with it.
This is a great thing, because the platform of Yangsan is far inferior to Mango.
Moreover, the reputation of "Longing" is far better than that of "Happy Camp", both within and outside the circle.
If in the first season, everyone still watched Qin Muchu participate in the show to save his face, then in the second season, he went for the reputation of the show.
"Are you still in the third grade of Central China this season?"
Zhang Yimou suddenly asked.
"Yes, still in the third grade of Yangtze River Delta."
Qin Muchu nodded.
"I heard that CCTV didn't pay attention to this program in the first season, and then the price was lowered at the end of the show. Why..."
Zhang Yimou thought of the rumors he had heard and looked at Qin Muchu again.
This guy is not a loser.
Even if CCTV suffers from the losses of the first season, it will not worry about selling the second season of "Longing". It will definitely be purchased at a high price on any satellite TV.
There is no reason to stay in the third grade in the second season.
Facing Lao Mouzi's gaze, Qin Muchu knew what he was thinking and smiled calmly:
"They have a new leader."
Zhang Yimou was startled, seemed to have thought of something, and smiled:
"Good."
After a pause, he said again:
"Originally, I asked you to come this time. Apart from Xiao Yu's matter, I also wanted to introduce Jigang to you."
"Deputy Director Zhang?"
Qin Muchu thought of the middle-aged man next to Lao Mouzi during the Olympics.
I heard he was a leader, but he didn’t have much contact with him and didn’t know which department he was in.
"Ah."
Zhang Yimou nodded,
"I heard from Weiping that you caused a lot of trouble this time. The Beijing circle has a problem with you, and you also offended your incredible aunt?"
Qin Muchu looked at Lao Mouzi's frowning eyebrows and knew that he was really worried about him, and couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.
Waving his hands and laughing:
"Zhang Weiping is well informed, but even a little backward and untrue."
"Backward and untrue?"
Lao Mouzi was puzzled.
Qin Muchu said:
"Because I wanted to film "Infernal Affairs", there was some dissatisfaction in the industry, but it didn't cause any trouble, so I solved it.
As for that aunt...
It's an offence, but it's not serious, and it doesn't really count. "
Zhang Yimou nodded slightly.
This is very different from what Zhang Weiping described.
What he just said to Qin Muchu was something he had crafted. According to Zhang Weiping, Qin Muchu was now a loner, abandoned by the capital, and blocked by the powerful.
If you are not careful, it will be your downfall.
It goes without saying who the two believe.
Zhang Weiping is not considered a member of the Beijing circle, or is not considered a core member of the Beijing circle. He obviously heard this information from hearsay.
Now that Qin Muchu said it was okay and the CCTV leadership change mentioned earlier, Lao Mouzi no longer worried.
asked again:
"Is it because of Zhang Ziyi that I offended my aunt?"
Speaking of this, Qin Muchu smiled wryly:
"Yes, it's an unreasonable disaster. Just because she guest-starred in "Love Letter", the person wanted me to delete her scene, but I didn't agree."
This is similar to what I heard from Zhang Weiping.
Zhang Weiping called Qin Muchu stupid, young and frivolous.
It's just a character, just delete it, why bother to offend the rich and powerful because of it.
Lao Mouzi did not refute at that time, but of course he disagreed in his heart.
Zhang Ziyi's cameo role is so small that even deleting her would not affect the continuity of the film.
It's just that there is a missing line of secret love.
But if Qin Muchu really deleted it, it would no longer be Qin Muchu.
Speaking of Zhang Ziyi, Lao Mouzi remembered another thing:
"Zhang Ziyi sent me a text message a few days ago to congratulate "Love Letter" on being shortlisted for Cannes."
"She sent it to me too."
Qin Muchu replied.
He was auditioning at the time and didn't see it, but Yang Mi told him later.
At that time, Yang Mi was quite surprised because Zhang Ziyi did not interact on Weibo. This was obviously a good opportunity to make a splash, especially for Zhang Ziyi who was in trouble, as it could largely divert the influence of the "temptation gate".
But Zhang Ziyi didn't do this.
Yang Conan Mi felt that there must be something fishy about this matter, and asked Mu Chu what he thought.
Muchu said that people with a heart see everything as dirty, and then Wu Shengmi arranged for him to use the Black Dragon's Eighteen Moves.
"She also sent me an apology text message. It was about wearing a bellyband to receive an award in Cannes a long time ago. She had apologized for this a long time ago. This time...it seems different, it seems sincere."
Zhang Yimou said again, with visible confusion on his face.
Qin Muchu was also surprised and subconsciously wondered if Zhang Ziyi had any agenda.
It's not his heart, it just doesn't fit her personality.
After thinking about it, there was only one possibility left except that Lao Mouzi felt wrong.
"Maybe it's because I'm getting older and I've experienced a lot recently, so I'm starting to reflect on the past."
Qin Muchu guessed.
"Maybe."
Lao Mouzi sighed softly:
"If that's the case, it's a good thing. It's just too easy to break."
As if something had aroused him, he sighed again:
"Recently, when I look at Xiao Yu, I sometimes think, is it a good thing for her to bring this girl into the circle? This place corrodes people's hearts. Even if they can wake up in the future, what they have done is done, and no matter how you make up for it, , all leaving traces.”
