CEE started with Nortel lecturers

Chapter 186 Back to School Speech
In Nortel College, Naza walked out of the classroom anxiously. Yang Caiyu beside her comforted her: "Don't worry, it's not necessarily that you will fail. And even if you fail this time, you will definitely not be the only one."

"Hmph! Of course you don't have to worry. You have the best academic performance in our class."

Since she had been filming in Chang'an for such a long time, Nazha fell behind in her cultural class again. This time she took a surprise test on film history, and she was almost blinded throughout the whole process, which made the substitute teacher Guan Yue very dissatisfied.

Nazha was not worried about failing the class. The main film history class was the one that Gu Zhongyu was responsible for before. If she failed, she would probably make Teacher Gu unhappy. That was what she cared about.

Yang Caiyu smiled and didn't say anything. He just felt that this woman really didn't know how to be polite. She tried to comfort you with good intentions, but she didn't appreciate it at all. If it weren't for Teacher Gu's sake, I wouldn't bother to talk to you!
"Speaking of which, you didn't join Zongheng back then, but now you choose Liu Yufei's studio, isn't it a bit too stupid? Isn't Teacher Gu better than your boss? If you go back on your word, I can intercede for you."

Yang Caiyu could tell that she was testing herself, afraid of stealing his teacher Gu.

The reason why I don't join Zongheng is because I don't want to engage in female competition with a little bitch like you.

Now she is the number one artist at Liu Yufei's studio. Sissi's boss has already said that she will be asked to play the second female lead in the new drama. She can get such a role before she graduates. She is already much better than most of her classmates. She I don’t want to change jobs!

"Oh! There are too many female artists in Zongheng, it's hard to get ahead, and I'm not like you, who has Teacher Gu's preference."

This was very helpful to Nazha. Just when she was about to go to Versailles, a person suddenly rushed out from beside her. He ran quickly with short legs and knocked away the two people blocking the road!

"I hit someone! Liu Mengmeng, why are you running so fast?"

Liu Mengmeng looked back at the two people who didn't know yet, stopped and said to them: "Didn't you hear? Teacher Gu is going back to school to give a speech. If you go late, you won't have a good seat!"

"Really or not, why didn't Teacher Gu tell me in advance?"

Nazha felt ignored again. Even though she was like him in the bathroom that day, Gu Zhongyu always treated her as transparent and indifferent.

"Of course it's true. The teacher just informed us that they will be here soon."

Yang Caiyu asked: "Such an important matter should be notified in advance. Why didn't I see the notice posted?"

"It should be a temporary decision. It was posted this morning. Didn't you pay attention?"

Nazha asked, "Where is the speech?"

"It starts in half an hour, right in the auditorium."

When Nazha heard that it was half an hour before the exam started, she didn't bother to worry about failing the exam. She took Yang Caiyu's hand and ran towards the auditorium.

……

Gu Zhongyu was already preparing for a new movie during this period, but Principal Zhang kindly invited him to come and tell everyone about his experience.Since the principal was so generous, Gu Zhongyu naturally couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to go back to his alma mater for a casual chat today.

This is because he won the Cannes Award and made the teachers and students of Nortel so happy that they invited him to give a speech.If Gu Zhongyu had won a domestic award like the Golden Rooster this time, the other party would definitely not even bother to ask.

As soon as he came back, he invested in the filming of the first domestic science fiction masterpiece "Ball Lightning", which also achieved a box office of 10 billion and broke the domestic record. If this is the case, forget it. The key is to win the jury award. For a movie that has been "poisoned" In the eyes of the students of the college, a movie with a high box office is not artistic, and winning an award is the first priority.

It has been almost four years since Lou Ye last won an award at Cannes. It is rare that another Nortel graduate can win the grand prize at the International Class A Film Festival. Although Gu Zhongyu is not the director, he is the producer of "Ball Lightning" Guo Fan, who is also the starring screenwriter, is not here, so it is appropriate to ask him to talk about it.

Huang Lei saw Gu Zhongyu and pulled him over enthusiastically: "Last time I went back to school to film, I asked you to come to my house for dinner, but you were never rewarded. Today's speech is over, so come to my house!"

"Okay, then I'm going to try Teacher Huang's craftsmanship today." Even though he's here, Gu Zhongyu is not in a hurry to go back. He goes to see Senior Sister Sun by the way. He hasn't seen her for a long time. It's really weird. .

In the past, when Gu Zhongyu gave lectures, he only faced students from the acting department, but this time he came to give a lecture. It was different. The audience was full of people, including those from the directing department, the acting department, and those studying screenwriting and photography. Came here to join in the fun.

Several leaders who rarely see each other also came to listen to Gu Zhongyu's speech.

Gu Zhongyu was preparing on the stage when he suddenly saw classmate Nazha below, who was winking at him. This girl really had no time to spare, and she would unleash her power whenever she got the chance.

Because Gu Zhongyu has been a teacher at Nortel for two and a half years, even if there are not many classes, everyone is familiar with him. There are always classmates who say hello to him, and most of them are those who have taken his classes.

His eyes swept across the audience, and he started his speech: "I'm here today, I don't plan to talk about any advanced topics with my classmates. As for the theoretical knowledge, you have already memorized it, so let's talk about the most important things, such as- -future!"

Before coming, Gu Zhongyu was still struggling with what to talk about. After all, some topics were off limits, and there was no point in repeating old clichés. After thinking about it, he decided to talk about the movie market. This was not a taboo, and he was good at it.

"China's film market has gone through decades of development. Finally, since 2010, the total annual box office has exceeded 100 billion! And it is still growing rapidly. Students, this is a new spring for film practitioners. Start!"

"The increasingly huge film market means that there will be more investment in production and higher box office movies. In the past, we could only watch many blockbusters produced by Hollywood, but now we have the opportunity to practice them ourselves!"

"Just a few years ago, our highest domestic box office was only 1 to [-] million. Such a size could not support our movie dream. Just like "Ball Lightning", the cost was more than [-] million. If it were released, It will be released, and I won’t even be able to get my money back.”

"Making movies is not only about money, but if there is no continuous profit transfer of film capital, our Chinese-language movies will not be able to go further..."

The rhythm of Gu Zhongyu's speech was quite brisk and his words were very down-to-earth. From time to time, he would add one or two small jokes, which made the atmosphere in the auditorium quite harmonious.

Soon, the speech ended, and then came the highlight of the day, free question time.
