1980 My literary era

Chapter 122 Criticism from a high position

In future generations, what will come to mind when mentioning Cheng Kaige?

"Farewell My Concubine".

When later generations interviewed staff related to "Farewell My Concubine", they all mentioned that he was full of disdain when he first read the novel "Farewell My Concubine".

If the investor at the time, Ms. Xu Feng, hadn't pressed his scalp to let him film it, it would have been impossible for him to touch this movie with his character.

Therefore, Lin Weimin was not surprised at all that he was able to express his views on "Farewell My Concubine" in public in Yan Ying's classroom.

Filming "Farewell My Concubine" when he was in his thirties was both a blessing and a misfortune for Cheng Kaige himself.

Some people are probably like this. They amaze everyone at a young age, but as long as they live long enough, they will eventually become hated by the public.

If Zhang Guorong had not made a shocking leap on April Fool's Day, he would still not be able to escape the vicious attacks from Internet trolls about his sexual orientation even today.

Lin Weimin sighed selfishly, ignored Cheng Kaige's young and energetic attitude, and said with a smile: "This classmate seems to like "The Death of Yura" very much?"

Cheng Kaige nodded, ready to wait for Lin Weimin's counterattack, "Not bad!"

Lin Weimin nodded slightly, "First of all, I would like to thank this classmate for his love of "The Death of Yura". However, a praise like "Leave a Name in the History" is too heavy. I agree with what you said, "The Death of Yura" is an excellent fantasy film. A realistic work. But the excellence of "The Death of Yura" should not be the reason for you to look down on "Farewell My Concubine"."

He paused and then said: "Whether it is literary creation or whether we are engaged in literary and artistic creation, the most taboo thing is to sing a high-pitched tune. No matter how nice your words are, it will inevitably sound too high-pitched.

In terms of creative techniques, "Farewell My Concubine" is indeed more popular and popular than "The Death of Yura", but does popular and popular mean vulgar?

I disagree with this view!

Some people like to talk about doctrines, thoughts, and profound meanings at every turn. It seems that with these things, even if the writing is poor, the work will still be good.

I would like to say that this kind of thinking and approach is problematic.

Any literary and artistic creation is first of all a technique. Skills are close to the Tao. When your skills have not touched the edge of the 'Tao', don't try to cover up your creative weaknesses with seemingly advanced concepts, because that will not do you any good.

The eyes of the people are sharp, and being remembered in history cannot be decided by words, nor by a few seminars held by a few people with high hats.

It requires the people's sincere love and subtle dissemination. Only in this way can it create long-lasting vitality. With such a mass base and wide dissemination power, the work can be regarded as qualified to leave a name in history! "

Lin Weimin's words were sonorous and powerful. During his pauses, the students in the classroom spontaneously burst into warm applause.

What he said was not a profound concept, but was very practical and won the favor of everyone present.

The students' applause hit Cheng Kaige's heart like a sledgehammer, making his face turn pale, but his expression still seemed a little unhappy.

When the students' voices gradually subsided, Lin Weimin called out: "This classmate!"

Cheng Kaige looked at Lin Weimin, trying hard to look calmer.

Lin Weimin smiled and said, "What I just said was not directed at you. By the way, it seems to me that you are not a student in an acting class, right?"

"Yes, I majored in directing." Cheng Kaige puffed up his chest when he said "directing major" and felt very proud.

"Which level? What's your name?"

Cheng Kaige felt furious when asked by Lin Weimin. Could it be that he wanted to retaliate against himself?

"Level 78, Cheng Kaige!"

Lin Weimin said sternly: "Classmate Cheng Kaige, Class of '78, is very good! He is not superstitious about authority and has the courage to put forward his own opinions and insights. I hope you can continue to maintain this character in the future!"

Cheng Kaige didn't expect to be praised by Lin Weimin in public, and the antagonism in his heart disappeared instantly, replaced by full admiration for Lin Weimin.

At this time, Zhu Lin had already sat down, and Li Qinqin whispered to her: "Teacher Lin has such a good temper and has such grace!"

Zhu Lin agreed with Li Qinqin's words in her heart. Although Cheng Kaige didn't say anything too radical just now, his attitude was annoying and it was clear that he was here to ruin things.

Teacher Lin not only used a few words to resolve his provocation, but also refuted his views from a higher perspective. At the same time, he did not lose his grace and was reasonable and restrained. It is really admirable!

"good!"

I don't know who took the lead in the classroom to shout "Hello", and everyone burst into warm applause again, extremely excited.

"I love my teacher, but I love the truth even more!"

Many college students these days regard this sentence as a creed. Not to mention Lin Weimin's lofty speech just now, but his behavior of encouraging Cheng Kaige deserves everyone's applause.

Ni Zhen stood under the podium with a smile of relief and appreciation on his face.

When Cheng Kaige rushed out just now, Ni Zhen recognized this thorn in the 78-level directing department at a glance. He was really afraid that Cheng Kaige was so aggressive, and Lin Weimin was young and energetic, and the two would clash with each other.

Fortunately, Lin Weimin's city is much more mature than his appearance. Not only is he not swayed by emotions, but he also maintains his sobriety and reason.

"Okay!" Ni Zhen walked up to the podium and said to Cheng Kaige who was still standing: "This classmate can go back first."

Cheng Kaige turned around and returned to the back row of the classroom without feeling satisfied.

Ni Zhen then said to the students in the audience: "That's all Teacher Lin has shared with you today. Let us once again thank Teacher Lin Weimin with warm applause."

He took the lead in applauding on the stage, and there was thunderous applause from the audience.

Ni Zhen chuckled and whispered to Lin Weimin: "Teacher Lin, today's lecture was very successful!"

"All the classmates are cheering!" Lin Weimin said politely.

The two said a few words on the stage, and Teacher Ni Zhen announced that get out of class was over.

The students did not leave, but swarmed towards the podium, waving the books in their hands.

Teacher Ni Zhen hurriedly shouted: "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, everyone, please stop crowding!"

He called several male classmates in the class to maintain order, and turned to Lin Weimin and said, "Teacher Lin, it seems I have to trouble you a little."

Lin Weimin smiled and said, "I'm very happy."

He stood on the podium and signed the books for the students one by one. It took almost an hour to sign all the students.

During this period, Lin Weimin also saw a familiar face, Xiao Jian, a friend he met at Shi Tiesheng's house before. He was a student in Yanying's 78-level screenwriting class.

After signing, the crowd dispersed.

"Xiaojian, I've been waiting for a long time!" Lin Weimin had a somewhat apologetic smile on his face.

Xiao Jian had a carefree smile on his face, "It's okay, I just waited for a while."

"What you just said was so good. I didn't expect you to be so popular now!"

Just now Xiaojian crowded in the back of the classroom and listened to Lin Weimin's sharing.

"Hey, everyone is cheering."

The two exchanged pleasantries and agreed to have time to gather at Shi Tiesheng's house next week, and Xiao Jian left.

"Teacher Lin, thank you!" Ni Zhen once again expressed his gratitude to Lin Weimin.

"You're too kind!"

The two exchanged a few words, and Lin Weimin greeted a few students before Teacher Ni Zhen sent him off.

Lin Weimin was pushing his bicycle and walking and chatting with Teacher Ni Zhen. As he was about to leave Yanying's gate, a shout suddenly came from behind him.

"Teacher Lin, please wait a moment!"
