World-class directors in the entertainment industry

After the announcement was sent out, Qin Dong's phone kept ringing.

Many of them were just new numbers added during the original celebration party.

There are artists and entertainment company CEOs.

These people are all trying their best to see if they can recommend their own people.

Qin Dong was just perfunctory, everything depends on the results of the audition.

But then a phone call made Qin Dong frown and feel very embarrassed...

"Hey, teacher, um, you saw it."

"What? Well, Lao Liu, I don't really want to go back to get my diploma."

Qin Dong frowned and thought for a moment as he listened to the words of his mentor Liu Jun.

"Speak directly if you have anything to say. Are the higher-ups of the school looking for you?"

"Hey, I guessed it..."

"What do I think? You know what I am like in school, Lao Liu. Apart from you and a few brothers in my dormitory, I don't have a normal relationship with anyone else. They are all busy studying."

"But if that didn't happen, I would really like to use it to help my classmates at my school. Who wouldn't use it, right?"

"..."

Qin Dong grabbed the phone, frowned and thought, feeling that he could not refuse, because in this way, Lao Liu would lose face in school, and it would also have a bad impact on Lao Liu's future. They are both adults. There are some things that Qin Dong can't accept as soon as he thinks about it.

After thinking about the key points, he finally said:

"Okay, Lao Liu, I'll go to your house tomorrow night. I want to eat the food cooked by my wife."

"You ask the school to prepare a document tomorrow. Photos and information about a male student who must pass the test with good acting skills, a minimum height of 175cm, and short hair. I will go to your house tomorrow night to have a look. All I can say is,

I'll try my best, but if there's a big gap and it doesn't meet the requirements of my new movie, don't blame me."

"Okay, I'll be there on time tomorrow night and tell my wife that I want to eat braised pork. Haha, goodbye teacher."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Dong thought about the matter and shook his head. Lao Liu had no choice but to do so.

...

The next day, the staff community next to the Huaxia Artists Training College.

Qin Dong came to the door carrying two bottles of wine and other gifts.

"Xiao Qin is here."

"Teacher's wife."

"Come in, what did you bring again? I won't let you in if you buy something next time."

"Haha, okay, I remember my master's wife."

"Lao Liu is waiting for you in the study. Go ahead. I'll cook first and call you when it's ready."

After Qin Dong exchanged greetings with Lao Liu's wife, his wife said this.

After putting down the gifts, I went to the study room and saw what Lao Liu was writing. I went over to take a look and found that there was a comment written on the document:

"Old Liu, what are you doing?"

Liu Jun was stunned for a moment. He was too focused on what he was doing and didn't notice Qin Dong coming. He smiled:

"Sit down and talk."

"This is the information of the students who passed the interview organized by the school today. I am also here, so I will write you a review of their acting skills."

Although Lao Liu is the head of the directing department and originally studied directing, a good director must have an intuitive view of actors' acting skills, which is no worse than those teachers in the acting department.

"Okay, let me take a look at what's written."

With nothing to do, Qin Dong reached out and asked for it.

"This part is written, take a look and see if there are any seeds that meet your requirements."

Old Liu handed over a stack of information, which contained basic information. Each document had several full-body photos and headshots.

Time just goes by busily like this.

"It's time to eat."

I don’t know when my wife’s voice came from outside.

..

"Xiao Qin, eat braised pork. I've been cooking it for a long time to see if it's rotten."

"Okay, Master, it's delicious. Master's cooking is really good."

At the dinner table, Qin Dong ate with big mouthfuls. He was a man who loved all kinds of meat.

"By the way, Lao Liu."

While eating braised pork, Qin Dong thought of one thing:

"Do you have any directors you recommend? The future development of the company will inevitably require recruiting directors. You must have someone who knows the basics and can arrange it. I will make two movies with you first and check them out. If possible, I can let them

They were shot alone."

"Whether it's a TV series or a movie, my company will definitely be involved in it in the future."

Liu Jun was drinking by himself. Because Qin Dong wouldn't drink more with him, he stopped drinking after two drinks. Hearing this, he took a deep breath and thought for a moment:

"There are quite a few. The directing department does not recruit people every year, but in the ten years I have been here, I have graduated several times, and many of them are not doing well."

Qin Dong understood that in the directing industry, it would be difficult for a newcomer without connections to get ahead.

Even if you are chosen by the company, you have to shoot according to their wishes, and you don’t have the right to edit. It’s difficult, very difficult, very difficult.

"But I have to say it first. Don't introduce those who are too self-centered, don't like to listen to other people's opinions, and are too literary."

After saying this, both Liu Jun and his wife frowned, stopped eating and drinking:

"What do you mean by that, kid? Is it possible that you have only been in the entertainment industry for a few days and you already have a coppery air?"

The atmosphere solidified, but Qin Dong smiled indifferently, he understood:

"Teacher, Master, I know what you mean. I am not such a person, but I have my principles."

"If you are not happy, I would disdain those literary and artistic films that depict the tragic experiences of Chinese people and reflect the backward areas of the country, even if these films win awards or make money, if they are taken abroad."

"I don't have any objection to literary and artistic films. Artistic films don't necessarily have to be made that way. That's a shame."

"Teacher, Madam, do you know that the "Man in Sunglasses" director Wang Lisheng from Hong Kong Island is also the king of literary and artistic films, but let's not talk about his box office. He has basically never lost money. Even if he fails, he can still maintain his capital."

"The most important thing is that the literary films made by this person are all about love, human nature, two-sex or even same-sex films, etc. They do not have the types I just mentioned. So why can others make such films, but we have to be literary and artistic to the end?

We only know how to expose our scars and expose our scandals so that other countries will think of us?"

"As times evolve, I think this kind of director and this kind of film can be eliminated."

This statement was so straightforward that Liu Jun and his wife both thought deeply and felt that it made sense.

"Wang Lisheng, I know this person. His reputation is very big in the world, especially in Europe. It is much bigger than in the mainland. Many people in the industry there and even many directors admire this person.

.”

Liu Jun is a director, so he is no stranger to Wang Lisheng. Some of his films may be a little pornographic and violent, but they are artistic enough. Although there are some parts that are not pleasing to the eye, overall, they are indeed as Qin Dong said.

"Xiao Qin."

The teacher said to Qin Dong in a serious tone:

"The greater a person's ability, the greater his responsibility."

"At this time, your responsibility is no longer just to yourself, your family, and the people around you, but also to society and the country."

"Country, country, only when there is a country, there is a home."

"An ancient saying goes: If you are poor, you can benefit yourself; if you are rich, you can help the world."

"After you have the ability, you have to think carefully when doing things. Don't just focus on money, but take a long-term view."

"For now, you kid, your heart is still good, and you will continue to do so in the future."

Qin Dong smiled and nodded:

"Okay, Master, I remember."

Qin Dong agreed with his wife's words from the bottom of his heart.
