Global Movie Emperor

Chapter 435 He is looking to the future

“Daze, the proposal for the new issue is good. The first three meetings, including this one, have set the tone for the development of grassroots actors in the future. We have decided to use your opinion to conduct pilot basic training for extras and charge some tokens. Costs, training certificates will also be issued after the training, this proposal is very good.”

On the phone, the old man’s voice was steady. He analyzed Lu Ze one by one and glanced at the screen. The two had been chatting for nearly half an hour. The topics discussed only revolved around Lu Ze’s autumn report in 2024.

Looking at the screen is not impatience. It is just a subconscious action of the phone vibrating. The battery is only 15% left. He goes back to the bar, charges the phone, and keeps his other hand idle, recording slowly. At the request of the old man.

“Master, keep talking.”

“Because it is a pilot program, there are only two classes arranged, and the total number of students is maintained at about 60. The teachers of professional colleges and universities take turns to teach, once a year, 15 classes in a period, and the pilot school is set in the Hengdian Actors Union. In the office, students are also selected from the Hengdian Film and Television Base. The requirement is that they have been in the industry for less than two years and are younger than 35 years old. The selection of the students is submitted by the Hengdian Actors’ Union and the students are selected and approved by the Association. These are the certificates and the specific procedures. Of course, these have nothing to do with you. Your main job is to be a lecturer for the first lesson after the pilot school starts.”

“Should I be a lecturer?”

“Yes, considering that you are an actor and you are very popular among the grassroots actors. Many actors regard you as a life goal. So the first lesson of the first semester is taught by you. It’s very appropriate to consider. Of course, you have to take your time into consideration. If you don’t hit the schedule, I hope you can go there.”

“I understand Master, when will the first class start?”

“December 1st, the first lesson, then one lesson a week.”

recorded the date. He threw the pen aside, opened his palm, passed through the hair, combed the falling hair back on top of his head, and did not forget to scratch it twice when he reached the back of his head.

Actor training courses are not uncommon. There were grassroots actor training courses established as early as the last century, and it is not limited to Hong Kong. Training courses are also established every year in the mainland, and even a small number of well-known artists have also come out of the training courses.

This is a good network bridge for grassroots actors. Not only can you learn knowledge, but if you have a relationship with the teacher in the training class, you will be reminded at least to lead you on the road, so each major The number of applicants for training courses in institutions is really not small.

The students come from all walks of life, such as resident singers, dance teachers, people behind the scenes, and even industries that are not close to the entertainment industry. As long as you have a heart to be an actor, and have free time and are fairly good Economic strength, you can sign up.

It’s weird that in a class that can fill up students every time, it’s hard to find those extras who have been shot many times and can barely be called actors.

Perhaps this is not weird, because Lu Ze never thought of attending any training courses in the past when he was doing group acting, not only because he didn’t have money or time, but more importantly, the industry’s requirements for group acting were extremely low. Systematic learning is necessary. Even if I reluctantly spent money to go to the class, I still have to take a half-day drama when I come back.

There is no way out after learning things, there is really no way out. What you have learned is not important, no one cares at all. The crew only asks you to be like a person or meet their needs, making you look like a person. This is enough. A set of Stanislavsky will only be beaten out.

It doesn’t take long for people to get numb when they arrive in Hengdian, like being buried in silt, and they will stinks within two days. As long as you go to that place, the ambition in your heart when you first get off the train, what about being a grassroots artist? Earn a lot of money, become a big star, and soon be woken up by the two eared melon seeds, or you don’t need to fight at all, just follow the old oil seeds and you will naturally wake up.

go home to work? I was too lazy to work nine to five in the morning and had no face to go home. Although I woke up from the dream, I couldn’t bear the ridicule of going home.

In order to seek a kind of self-recognition dignity, I slowly eroded people’s bones clean, making them feel, oh, every day they want to get up and start working, and if they don’t want to do it, they sleep at home. They dealt with four to five thousand in a month. It’s also good to have enough money for yourself.

Then the person who had the dream at the time disappeared. He became a man who started working if he had no money to earn some, and if he had money, he played cards and lost all. He had three meals a day and mixed crew lunches. There were no two eldest sons in the pockets of poor pants. I felt like thugs and guns were uncomfortable. I flipped through the WeChat group all night, hoping to find a high cost-effective* that saves money as much as possible, but with a good look, and finally got tired, in the dark, sweaty quilt Sleeping with the comfort of the pillow, the silly boy who was confused for another day.

That’s right, it’s a bad boy.

Even Lu Ze at the beginning was the same. Even if he didn’t play cards because he was anxious to spend money at home, he was still a bad boy who was hungry and thirsty in the middle of the night. He rummaged his cell phone to find cheap girls, and even moved to the opposite of Yang Dan. It didn’t take long to see a woman who was willing to deal with him. They slept in a bed for several months. When the woman ran away, he and Yang Dan became acquainted. I’m so embarrassed to start.

Where are there so many coincidences that a handsome guy and a beautiful woman happen to be neighbors? This is true even in Hengdian. Few really beautiful people do group performances. Why can’t you make money faster than doing group performances?

Lu Ze knew too much about the old gangsters, and none of them were serious. Because of this, he was actually not very satisfied with the requirements of the pilot training class within two years of entering the industry. For too long, it is difficult for people who have been in Hengdian for two years. Be more enterprising.

His original proposal was within a year, but now that the telecom agreement is under, he can’t say anything more. It’s not a matter of Lu Ze disarming the donkey. He started in Hengdian. After he developed, he began to discriminate against group performers. .

If it really discriminates against group performers, he does not need to propose an official training class for group performers to find a way out. What if someone really stands out from it? Who doesn’t know that myth is the only thing better? He made the decision with his original intention and an impatient desire.

The horizontal comparison between grassroots actors in Europe and the United States and domestic grassroots actors reveals the extremely lack of professional quality of domestic grassroots actors and the desire for domestic grassroots actors to grow rapidly.

Since he became a member of the Association, he has been looking forward to making some contributions to the domestic film industry, not for achievements, not for promotion, just to give an explanation for the unwillingness in his heart. Only by sitting in this position can I understand what cultural output means and the unwillingness that arises is an explanation.

The domestic industry is very chaotic, not that chaos, but the industry norms are still chaotic. Compared with the entertainment industry in the cultural exporting country, it is very chaotic, so he has to study, study in foreign work, and then take what he has learned. , Applicable to domestic industry standards, set in the domestic market.

Even if he alone does not make much splash, the China Telecom Association cannot change the entire circle, especially those capital bosses who rely on the entertainment industry to make money. No one will cooperate with an association that cannot forcefully change the industry rules to lose their own. interest.

But he can influence the grassroots, a class that has been abandoned by capital and can’t squeeze any oil and water, but is essential to the film.

Grassroots level, this is his first step. He didn’t step too far, didn’t rush, and only affected sixty people. But in the future, he believes that he will definitely affect more than the poor sixty people.

But to make a change, someone will definitely be hurt, and most of those hurt are group performances. This is also a kind of helplessness. After all, with ideals and a high position, Lu Ze will eventually abandon some people. , These old oilers who have not contributed little to the industry.

Although he has his original intentions, his original intentions cannot cover everyone. For those who are dragging his legs, he can only abandon these people. Perhaps he will kill tens of thousands of people, and even more people will lose their jobs without any metal content. The ancestral graves that will be scolded are all open, but as a person who has the ability to lead a part of the industry to climb the summit.

Facing the grassroots, we must not discriminate, but we should look down…

And this training class is not used to train big stars. The teacher’s course will not teach you how to become a big star, but only teach you how to be a qualified grassroots.

If you develop through the course of the training class one day, you can only tell your fortunes and get ahead on your own. This training class will not have much to do with it.

It simply teaches you some basic-level actors filming knowledge that should be learned, and can be used in the crew to enhance your line skills, change your stiff limbs, and will not pose a rigid posture like most group actors. , And withdraw after reciting his lines without expression, just like the group performance in “Happy Planet”.

It is a grass-roots hematopoietic system that will deliver high-quality grass-roots components in the future, making the image of film and television works more plump, and will not make the audience play, and will not let the crew invite the old drama bones because no one is available. Play some more important small roles.

Good steel should be used on the blade, and good actors should do the same. Good old actors should bring the younger generation and talented young actors on the road, so as not to make domestic actors fail to pick up and lose gear.

“Okay, I’ll just say this, Daze, the first class is very important. You must make the grass-roots actors think that they have learned something before they can be willing to take the class. You must have a good start, and the documents will also come out. You must repeatedly emphasize that in the future, for students who hold a certificate of completion, each crew will have three priority trials, and at least ensure that the role has more than five lines, but three consecutive directors are not satisfied with their performances and give them a difference. If the score is awarded, the certificate of completion will be revoked and re-examination is not allowed within three years.”

This is something that Lu Ze did not consider in his proposal. It is not surprising that the China Telecom Association has added to the proposal. After all, Lu Ze must not be able to turn a bunch of brains.

In this way, this training class is too attractive for group performances. After all, you only need to pay a very low tuition. After 15 weeks of study, you can get the opportunity to audition for a character with a face, and the income can be taken. Much higher than before.

And the certificate can be revoked, which greatly enhances the sense of crisis of the graduates. Others are improving, but you are standing still, which means you are regressing. In this way, the director who chooses you to film will naturally feel at a loss. , I hired a rookie at the same price, naturally I will not be happy, then you can only say goodbye to your graduation certificate, and it will be at least three years if you don’t, during these three years, you can only look at others Make a big profit, but I barely have enough food and clothing.

To a certain extent, this will change the state of Buddhism in group performances and evolve the group into a highly competitive profession that squeezes your head. The stronger you are, the more you earn, the better you perform, the more work the union arranges for you. Even in the future, group performances with a monthly income of 100,000 are likely to occur. This kind of healthy competition is not only what the Telecom Association hopes to see, but also what the crew hopes to see. After all… you will not make trouble when you watch the group perform dry lines as a director. Heart?

A very OK group performance and a group performance that doesn’t know anything are placed here. If you are the director, which one would you choose? As far as the crew is concerned, the trouble for Tim is just that after the group acting is finished filming, he takes out his mobile phone and gives the licensed group performer a good, good, or bad mark on the union website, and then puts a stamp on the group acting resume. , Nothing more.

With a single phone call, you can send trained professional group performers that fit the role image to your crew through the actors’ union, carry the number plate, carry the small box, call the boss, and wait for you to choose. How many directors’ troubles have been solved? Urgent? How much can it add to the work? It goes without saying.

This will even cause the certificate of completion to become in short supply and become popular among the group performers. At that time, the admission conditions of the training course will be stuck. The number of entries in the year will be used as the selection criterion, and only the top few hundred in the industry will be admitted. Famous group performance, the enthusiasm of the entire industry may be mobilized.

Going further, in case a protagonist who is not very good at acting is beaten by a group…If you can find someone to trouble you, do you think the protagonist’s face can hang on? Once there are more groups with good performances, can you find trouble? Even if you find it, the actors’ union is not going to be dry.

If the union members of the introduced group evolution group allow a fixed quota, after reporting, then it is impossible to say who will trouble.

As for how many gray industrial chains will be generated like this, Lu Ze does not need to know, as soon as he finds out, he can immediately destroy it. This kind of thing cannot be forbidden, and it can only be guaranteed that they will not be too rampant.

There is no need to go further. All in all, group performances may seem inconspicuous, but they are actually the cornerstones of most works. Once the structure of the cornerstone changes, the superstructure must also be changed to avoid the collapse of the building, so In other words, to change a thing, there is no need to start with the most difficult steps. Often the lower pillars are removed, and the difficulties will always be solved.

“Okay, Master, should I hang up first?”

“Well, by the way, this year’s national cast selection has started. You have not been very enthusiastic about this aspect. I’ll take the initiative and put it up for you. The meeting has already passed, and the certification will come to me. When will I be free? , Remember to come and take it.”

The certificate can be mailed to Lu Hua. Of course, it’s better to get it by yourself. It seems that he values ​​this honor. However, due to the relationship between Lu Ze and his own achievements, he would not personally get it. It doesn’t matter.

Old man Chen is also a person who can’t wipe the face. On weekdays, there are an old couple and a nanny at home. Maybe it feels that the house is deserted, so he thought of detaining the certificate and let Lu Ze go there for a reason.

It is said that the common people love Yaoer, the old man Chen is naturally inevitable, more or less will prefer a little apprentice, and this little apprentice fits his temperament, and has excellent talents, he can be called the first person of the young and strong generation. It is a complete display of this preference without any concealment.

Now everyone in the circle knows that in addition to the dead apprentice, among the eight apprentices, Mr. Chen likes the old nine the most. He is close to the old nine compared to his own son. As long as it is about the old nine, he cares about everything. The hint, Lu Ze also heard it, smiled and exhaled, and nodded to the old man through the phone.

“Cheng, Master, I will come and see you in a few days.”

“It’s almost the same, OK, I’m hanging up.”

He got a satisfactory answer, and Mr. Chen hung it up. He didn’t even react to Lu Ze. He put the phone aside and returned to the guest seat outside the bar. Sitting in front of the laptop, thinking about it, the connection was broken because of the phone. Lost thoughts, occasionally contemplation, and occasionally fingers fast, writing line after line of text.

This is not writing a new quarterly report, nor is it writing a storyboard for Fatini’s script “Atonement”. What he wrote this time is entirely his own, but… it is still not a script.

He is still unwilling to accept cultural input in Huaxia Market, so he hopes to get the support of others as much as possible, so as to change from the inside until the industry changes, but it is not enough to rely on his master and a few seniors. After all, they A family in the circle can only be regarded as a lot of weight, not close to the sky with one hand.

Therefore, winning the support of other academies and capital parties with plans for the future industry is the top priority in formulating industry norms in the future, but in this way, it is not enough to be an actor and a member of the telecom association. He still needs some These achievements can improve their reputation and make others willing to support themselves in reforming industry rules and unspoken rules.

The previously agreed “Sound Film Volunteer Organization” is also part of it, and the busy work now is also part of it.

Lu Ze has been thinking about it for a long time, how can he make some achievements that are recognized at home and abroad This is not something that can be done by shooting a few classic movies. After thinking about it for a long time, he finally got an eyebrow.

Everything has to start with the system…

After so many years and so many years in the system, he has learned more than just the performance skills he has shown so far. It can be said that the talent he has shown now is only the tip of the iceberg of his own performance ability. The forced script can’t squeeze him to full vitality. As long as he wants, as long as the script requires, he can go up a step again. No matter how much he needs, no matter what, no matter what, no matter what effect you want. It can be taken out, even a bit non-human.

It can be said that Lu Ze is the most suitable for any role in any script written by any screenwriter in the world. This sounds a bit like blowing, or even if it is no longer appropriate, wait a few hours, etc. He came out of the system simulation biographies, and he was suitable.

But having said that, although the script cannot show all of Lu Ze’s abilities, there is still a book that can do it. The author of this book will not be someone else, only Lu Ze himself, which is what Lu Ze is doing now.

He will write all the things he has learned throughout his life in the book, whether it is what others can learn or what others cannot learn, or even if others feel that Lu Ze is not human after reading it, all will be written into the book, from Stanislavs In Ji’s “Actor’s Self-Cultivation”, the experiential performance method proposed by Ji took a different approach and wrote his unique performance method into the book.

That’s right, he wants to create…

The fourth largest theater performance system.
