1990: Starting from Baojia Street

Chapter 60 Teacher or student? (First update 3.6k, please vote for me)

During the filming of "Heaven Replies", the difficulties mainly focused on the roles of the young actors.

Shi Chen is indeed very powerful and has sophistication beyond his peers, but after all, he is less than four years old, and he cannot understand many things the director said at once.

Therefore, on the set, you can often see Wang Junzheng holding a script and narrating the scene to Shi Chen. Not only does he explain it, but Wang Junzheng also demonstrates it to him in person.

Compared with Zhang Yimou, Wang Jun's on-site style is refreshing. She is cheerful and generous, and treats every staff member with extraordinary patience.

Sometimes Zhou Yan looks on and feels almost impatient, but Wang Junzheng can still maintain a peaceful mind.

With the director like this, the working atmosphere on set will certainly not be very tense.

However, her style actually sacrifices some efficiency.

Zhou Yanneng could clearly feel that individual staff in the team did not respond particularly positively to the work she explained. This was unimaginable in Zhang Yimou's team.

Previously on the crew of "Raise the Red Lantern", if anyone didn't listen to instructions or responded slowly, they would definitely be dealt with.

This is the case with some people. If you are nice to them, they will feel that you are easy to bully.

……

Zhou Yan not only often consulted with Wang Junzheng on site, but also went with her to the factory to watch developed negative films.

In fact, Zhou Yan was not just trying to steal from the director. During the filming process, he did find that the short paragraphs he had written before were still a bit stylized.

After seeing the actors' performances live, he had new insights into some of the clips. Even "Forever Together", which was previously scheduled to be used in the first clip, needed some simple adjustments.

Wang Junzheng said that when shooting, he had to adjust the camera to match the music, but it was more difficult to do so, so Zhou Yan tried his best to move the music closer to the camera, which would reduce the workload.

The film was shot for more than ten days, and Zhou Yan went to Yanjing Studio seven or eight times. This morning, he just came out of the developing and printing workshop when he saw Chen Kaige walking over.

Chen Kaige was not in the factory during this period, so Zhou Yan never saw him.

Seeing Zhou Yan again, Chen Kaige became much more enthusiastic.

He clearly knew that Zhou Yan didn't smoke, but he still took the initiative to give Zhou Yan a cigarette, "Zhou Yan, are you here to watch the film of "Reply from Heaven"?"

"No, no." Zhou Yan stretched out his hand to block the cigarette and said with a smile, "Yes, let's watch the film and be aware that the soundtrack must be combined with the picture."

"You're right." Chen Kaige held the cigarette in his mouth, lit it, and said with a smile, "I heard from Teacher Zhao that you will be the on-site director of our crew for the soundtrack of "Farewell My Concubine" later on. "

Zhou Yan smiled, not knowing whether it was Chen Kaige who could speak, or whether Zhao Jiping deliberately promoted him in front of Chen Kaige, referring to the soundtrack assistant as an on-site guide, and his level suddenly went up.

He could naturally feel the change in Chen Kaige's attitude before and after, and guessed that this change in attitude was probably related to "Kite".

"Teacher Zhao mentioned the matter of "Farewell My Concubine" to me once, but it was not completely confirmed at that time."

"It's OK." Chen Kaige raised the hand holding the cigarette and said with a smile, "I told Teacher Zhao a long time ago, and later Mr. Xu personally went to invite Teacher Zhao, so it must have been settled. Teacher Zhao is a good person In Chang'an, I am usually very busy and have few opportunities to come to the site, so I need more guidance from you on site."

"Director Chen joked, as for the soundtrack, it is mainly music to accompany the movie. Our creation follows your director's ideas. If film production is compared to a train running, then your director's idea is the locomotive, and our soundtrack is the car behind it. "

Chen Kaige looked at Zhou Yan with a smile. He realized that he had underestimated Zhou Yan before. Zhou Yan was not only talented, but he also spoke very nicely. These two words he just said made him feel really comfortable.

"Haha, when I heard what you said, I suddenly became stressed." After taking a puff of his cigarette, Chen Kaige continued, "In early July, the crew will organize a meeting of departments. Is it convenient for you to come to the scene?"

Zhou Yan thought for a while and said, "July should be fine. I will be on summer vacation then. Has the actor been decided yet?"

"It's settled." Chen Kaige nodded, and then said with some show off, "Our crew has a lot of skills this time. The heroine is Gong Li. You should know her. I'll let you know about the rest first. When you get to the crew, you can I can see it.”

Zhou Yan smiled and said, "The sense of anticipation was instantly filled."

"Haha, I won't let you down." Chen Kaige took two more puffs, threw the butt of the cigarette on the ground and stomped on it, "I have something to do with Director Meng. Let's talk about the "Farewell My Concubine" meeting when we have time. I’ll tell you the specific time later.”

"Okay, Director Chen, go ahead and get busy. I'm going back to school too."

……

In the blink of an eye, school started for a month, and it was April.

Zhou Yan's formalities for repeating a grade were all completed. April [-]st, which happened to be Monday, also officially started his new semester.

When the first class in the morning was about to begin, Zhou Yan arrived at the classroom with his books in his arms. Xu Lang, who was sitting at the front listlessly, suddenly widened his eyes.

"Senior Brother Zhou Yan!"

When other students heard Xu Lang's voice, they all looked over and greeted Zhou Yan.

Class monitor Shen Huaigang saw Zhou Yan holding the book for this class and said with surprise, "Brother Zhou Yan, is Teacher Li sick? Are you here to take over the class for Teacher Li?"

Zhou Yan twitched the corner of his mouth. Is Shen Huaigang's expression too happy?Is Li Bingyang's illness such a happy thing?

Hearing what Shen Huaigang said, other students also became excited.

"How many classes will Senior Brother Zhou Yan take over?"

"In addition to the harmony lessons, are the following musical forms also covered?"

"Senior Brother Zhou Yan will talk a little longer today."

……

Zhou Yan rolled his eyes and looked at these people, then hugged the book and ran to the back row to sit down.

The classmates stared at him all the way to the back row and sat down, a little confused.

Why did Brother Zhou Yan sit down?

Seeing them all staring at him, Zhou Yan smiled and said, "We will be classmates from now on."

"Ah?" Xu Lang suddenly stood up from his seat, with a surprised look on his face, "Senior Brother Zhou Yan, you really have repeated a grade."

Others were also confused. During this period, Zhou Yan had assigned them many tasks on behalf of Jia Guoping and taught them many professional courses. They all regarded him as their teacher.Suddenly, Zhou Yan became their classmate, and they couldn't adapt for a while.

"Senior Brother Zhou Yan, you are kidding us..."

Before Xu Lang finished speaking, their real teacher Li Bingyang walked in.

Seeing Xu Lang standing behind, Li Bingyang said, "Xu Lang, class is here, sit tight."

Xu Lang wanted to sit down next to Zhou Yan, but his book was still in front of him, so he could only return to his previous position.

Li Bingyang also saw Zhou Yan and said with a smile, "Zhou Yan is here too today."

Zhou Yan smiled and said hello, "Hello, Teacher Li."

Li Bingyang nodded, said nothing more, opened the book and officially started class.

Halfway through the class, Zhou Yan couldn't help but hold his forehead. Li Bingyang's class was really bad for him.

At the end of a class, you just follow the textbook, and the teaching effect is basically not much different from the students reading the book themselves.

It is absolutely impossible to say that Li Bingyang's professional level is poor. He is a student of this major. Not to mention that he is a well-known genius in the department like Zhou Yan and Jia Guoping, but he is definitely among the top in their class.

He doesn't teach well, it's all a matter of attitude.

Now Li Bingyang is just clocking the clock every day, trying to pass the work every day, and when the semester is over, he flies to the United States to pursue his academic research.

Li Bingyang is certainly not a bad person. He usually has a good relationship with Zhou Yan and the others, and they can chat a few words when they are together.

When chatting, Zhou Yan felt that Li Bingyang was a pretty good person. When he saw students having strong opinions against Li Bingyang before, he thought the students were biased. Now it seems that it is normal for students to have opinions against him.

The most outrageous thing was that when get out of class was about to end, Shen Huai just stood up and asked a question.

When Li Bingyang was halfway through his answer, when get out of class time came, he stopped talking.Although university teachers are not very provocative, it is rare to find someone as straightforward as him.

Li Bingyang was originally going to leave the class immediately. Suddenly something occurred to him and he smiled and said, "If you don't know anything, just ask classmate Zhou Yan. He has a solid foundation and will definitely be able to answer your questions. Zhou Yan, I’m sorry to bother you.”

Until Li Bingyang left, Zhou Yanren was still stupid.

He finally met a ruthless person today.

Jia Guoping said before that Li Bingyang was quick to pick things up, but he didn't feel anything yet, but now he feels better and feels more deeply.

At this moment, Shen Huaigang and the others all turned to look at Zhou Yan, their eyes were like those of a hungry wolf staring at a little lamb, which was quite scary.

Zhou Yan sighed slightly and stood up, "Okay, let me explain to you the question Shen Huai just asked."

"Great!"

The students suddenly became excited, which was completely opposite to the lifeless classroom atmosphere just now.

Later, Li Bingyang discovered that Zhou Yan was giving lectures to the students. Not only did he have no objection, he often asked Zhou Yan to get up during class to explain knowledge points to the students.

Zhou Yan himself had no objection. Giving lectures to the students was also good for him.

Teaching has always been mutually beneficial, and in the process of teaching, he gained a deeper understanding of knowledge.

……

Hua Yang showed up at the club in the morning, and then rode to the Central Conservatory of Music.

The editorial office of Yanjing Literature is located on Qianmen West Street, almost on the same road as the Central Conservatory of Music. It is only four or five miles away by bike.

When he arrived at Yangyin, Hua Yang asked around and found Dormitory 303 where Zhou Yan lived.

There was only one person in the dormitory at the moment. I heard that he was looking for Zhou Yan, so he took him to the composition department classroom very enthusiastically.

When he arrived at the door of the classroom, the student looked inside and then said, "He is in class, please wait outside for a while."

Hua Yang also stretched his head to look inside the classroom and asked, "Excuse me, who is Zhou Yan?"

The student smiled and pointed to the podium, "This is it."

"what?"

"Just wait." After saying that, the student turned and left.

Hua Yang looked at the young man on the podium with confusion on his face.

Last summer, when he first received Zhou Yan's manuscript "The Death of the Mayor", he felt that the novel was very well written, so he submitted the manuscript to his superiors for review.

The boss thought it was good after reading it, but Zhou Yan had no resume at all and it was difficult to publish the novel.

However, the manuscript was indeed good, and they were reluctant to reject it, so they contacted the author and asked him to revise it. It would be best if he could bring along his personal resume.

Later, Hua Yang saw another novel "The River Wet by Rain" by Zhou Yan in "Flower City".

In this way, Zhou Yan had a resume. After submitting "The Death of the Mayor" again, the agency decided to publish it.

At first, Hua Yang thought that Zhou Yan was at least 40 or [-] years old, otherwise it would be difficult to write "The Death of the Mayor" and "The River Wet by the Rain".

Later, Zhou Yan gave him another contact address, which turned out to be the male dormitory of the Central Conservatory of Music. He was confused for a long time. He never imagined that Zhou Yan was actually a student of the Central Conservatory of Music.

Just when he had prepared his mind and came to find Zhou Yan, he found that Zhou Yan seemed to be not a student, but a teacher?

Hua Yang didn't wait too long. After only five or six minutes, the class was over.

Seeing Zhou Yan walking out of the classroom, he quickly greeted him, "Hello, are you Teacher Zhou Yan?"
