I am a leader in the entertainment industry

Chapter 83: Imparting

Beijing, Li Qi wanders around the Beijing Film Academy campus

“Hello, Brother”

“Um”

“Hello, Brother”

“Hello, Junior Sister”

Along the way, even though Li Qi was wearing a baseball cap, many classmates still recognized him. Looking at these energetic young people, Li Qi seemed to see himself when he first entered the campus.

When he met a man, he simply nodded, but when he met a pretty woman, he chatted a little more.

He came here to learn from Ma Jingwu and wanted to learn more about the specific acting methods of movies. In particular, after Li Qi filmed”Crazy Stone” and acted with a group of powerful actors, he felt more and more that he was lacking in film acting.

TV series and movies are different. They are two completely different performance styles. In the past, teachers at Beijing Film Academy mostly taught TV series and only briefly mentioned movies.

It’s not that he deliberately hides his skills, but the acting methods of movies are much more profound than those of TV series. They may not be able to learn all the skills of TV series in a few years at school.

Some people started acting in their sophomore year and never attended classes.

“Don’t be bound by form in performance. The most important thing is to grasp the character’s personality, understand the character thoroughly, read the script as soon as you get it, and read it twice. Write a biography, look up information, and understand the story behind the character.……”

Before he knew it, Li Qi arrived outside the acting classroom, where a teacher was giving a lesson.

There are about ten students sitting in the classroom. Some are listening attentively, while others are secretly playing with their mobile phones.

What Beijing Film Academy lacks the most is talented people, especially those in the acting department. Some people have signed with agencies before going to college. Coming here is just for gilding

“Are you quite popular recently?”

Ma Jingwu’s slow voice came from behind

Before entering the school gate, Li Qi called him. He was in class next door and asked Li Qi to wait for a while. Unexpectedly, he saw this scene as soon as he arrived.

“I saw that some students were not paying attention in class, so I helped the teacher supervise them. Li Qi said to Ma Jingwu with a smile.

“You were the same in class before.” After scolding him, Ma Jingwu turned around and left.

Li Qi trotted to catch up and whispered to Ma Jingwu:”I studied very hard in the beginning, especially in Mr. Ma’s class. I worked very hard.”

“Humph!”Ma Jingwu knew whether Li Qi was a good student or not.

“Who is this man?”Looking at Li Qi walking away, Li Yu, who was looking up in the classroom, muttered softly

“Li Jun, Li Jun, was that person Li Qi just now?” Huang Mengying came over and asked

“Li Qi, who is Li Qi?”

“Li Qi, don’t you know him?”

“I really don’t know him. Wait, are you talking about the boy just now?”

“Who else could it be? It must be him.” Huang Mengying said excitedly:”He was our senior from the previous two classes, and he is the male lead in the hit drama”Startling by Each Step”.”

“Some time ago, a group of boys on campus sang too much with guitars on the football field. The Wind Rises, Fairy Tale, and Stubborn are all his songs.”

Big Fish is quite difficult to sing, and it is hard for most people to sing well.

Li Yu opened his eyes wide:”So he is a star?”

“Of course, she’s still famous.”

To them, Li Qi has already stood very high

“”Bang!” Li Yu closed the book and wanted to chase after her, but Huang Mengying quickly held her down:”What are you doing?”

“Signatures, photos.”

“You are in class, you are asking for trouble”

On the other side, Li Qi followed behind Ma Jingwu

“Tell me, why do you want to see me?”

Ma Jingwu walked in front with his hands behind his back, saying without turning his head

“I took on a supporting role in a movie before, and I joined the crew to shoot. I have some feelings, and I want to talk to you about it.”Li Qi emphasized the word supporting role.

Ma Jingwu smiled and asked cooperatively,”What movie?” (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Although he is strict when teaching, he is usually very kind, especially when these bastards are out of control after graduation. They like to joke with him as soon as they meet.

Li Qi briefly introduced Ning Hao’s previous movie Jing Wu of Tsushima.

Ma Jingwu glanced at him and said,”If you come here to show off, you have achieved your goal.”

The bastard is extremely lucky. He was able to invest in a movie so quickly, and even played a supporting actor (bcfc). He also became very popular in a TV series. He was a little jealous.

“What are you bragging about? There is nothing to brag about.”Li Qi waved his hand, as if it was not worth mentioning:”I am here to make up for the lessons. I am here to ask for your advice. I have too little experience in making movies. I need your guidance.”[]

Knowing his purpose, Ma Jingwu did not go to the office, but turned to the football field and sat down in a shady corner.

The weather was hot, and there were many men and women on the football field, with laughter and joy.

“Movies and TV series are different. One is on a big screen, and the other is on a small screen. The difference between the two is huge. The simplest point is that the rhythm is different.”

As soon as Ma Jingwu sat down, he started the class. Li Qi sat beside him and listened attentively.

“There is no doubt that filming requires higher acting skills than TV dramas. The cinema is so big that the audience can see clearly if your facial muscles twitch. Sometimes blinking your eyelids may affect the viewing experience.”

“TV dramas are different. The audience is three or four meters away from the TV, and the screen is small, so no one will pay attention to these things.”

“Now let’s get back to the point and talk about the rhythm. A movie is a story condensed into one and a half hours. In this one and a half hours, the beginning, development, climax, ending, and many characters must be explained.”

“With such a short time, if you take your time, you won’t be able to finish filming, so the actors’ lines must be fast… It doesn’t mean that you should just pursue speed, there should also be some slowness in speed, to create a sense of hierarchy……”

Li Qi nodded thoughtfully. The pace of the movie is indeed faster than that of the TV series. For example, if you use the simplest lines, there is no problem watching the TV series at 1.5 or 2.0 magnification.

Movies are not like that. If you watch too fast, you will miss a lot of things. If you miss a few lines, you will miss important clues.

On the lawn, Ma Jingwu spoke for two hours, and the school bell rang again and again.

Looking at his watch, Ma Jingwu said,”I still have one class to go. Let’s stop here today and digest it first.”

“I will teach you how to act tomorrow. You can’t rush this. Just think more and practice more. You will understand it after a while.”

“Sorry for bothering you, Mr. Ma”

One-on-one guidance, rare opportunities

There are art exam cram schools outside, also run by teachers from the performing arts academy, and the tuition fee is tens of thousands per month.

Older performing artists like Ma Jingwu are no longer available to anyone with money.

Ma Jingwu joked:”You still come to me for tutoring after graduation. It’s my fault that I didn’t teach you well. Don’t blame me.”

Li Qi’s class was the last one he taught, so it’s not an exaggeration to say that he was his last disciple.

Li Qi was embarrassed:”I didn’t listen carefully at that time”

“You are being modest, aren’t you? Don’t I know whether you are serious or not? Okay, I won’t say any more. I’m going to class. You can do whatever you want.”

He was very happy that Li Qi came to him for advice on acting, and he was even happier to see Li Qi’s growth and pursuit of acting.

This kid has a bright future.

“Teacher Ma, if you have time, I will treat you to dinner tonight.”

Li Qi suddenly said

“Forget it. I’m not used to eating out. Your wife is waiting for me to go home and cook.”
