Bright Era of China Entertainment

Chapter 366 Graduation Show
Brilliant Times Film and Television Company, "Hope" post-production office area.

In front of a computer, the special effects rendering engineer sat in a chair and operated.

In this computer, what is rendered is a special effect picture of a galaxy in the universe.

Among the dozens of computers nearby, there is the same picture of the universe galaxy, which is obviously rendering this special effect at the same time.

Chu Xuan, Liu Yifei, Wen Muye and others stood behind the chairs, or embraced, or held teacups in their hands, or stretched out their hands to support the back of the chair, watching together.

This is the last special effect of "Hope". If everything goes well, the post-production of "Hope" will be declared a success.

In the post-production process of special effects, importing the rendered picture into the movie requires a process of analysis.

When we use software to synthesize pictures or import pictures into movies, the operations on the software belong to the presentation layer operations. The technicians only need to know how to use the corresponding functions of the software, and the principle of finally realizing the picture synthesis or import is to use the software. underlying logic.

As we all know, a screen is composed of pictures, and a picture is composed of pixels, and each pixel can be regarded as an element.

The underlying format of the counterpoint elements is different between the special effects screen and the movie screen. If the performance of the software is insufficient, the logical algorithm of the analysis is not in place, or the operation skills of the technicians are not enough.

When compositing or importing special effects images into a movie, the alignment elements of the two images do not match well, and they will look like textures, which will often lead to the result of five cents special effects in the movie.

Under the eyes of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei, the rendering of the special effects picture had been completed, and the technicians started to analyze the special effects picture with the mouse, and a percentage progress bar appeared on the screen.

On a computer next to it, a cameraman from "Hope" was operating the video editing software, waiting for the import of special effects images on the other side.

When the progress bar on the technician's side is full, the cameraman immediately imports the special effect images from the shared document, and a percentage progress bar appears again.

When the progress bar is full, in the film and television screen, the camera mainly focuses on Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi, surrounded by green cloth.

Under the operation of the cameraman, the green cloth was cut out and replaced by the empty darkness, and then the cameraman dragged the special effect screen to cover the dark area, and performed precise and subtle operations frame by frame.

Half an hour later, the surrounding area centered on Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi in the screen was completely dark, replaced by the cosmic starry sky.

The cameraman clicks to play and fast-forwards, and the video is smooth and free of stuttering.

"It's done." The cameraman turned his head and said.

"Yeah!!" Concubine Liu Yi smiled happily and raised her hands to face Chu Xuan.

Chu Xuan was also delighted, and raised his hands to give Concubine Liu Yi a high-five.

The two high-fived Wen Muye, Liu Yi, Kong Sheng, Li Xue, and Wang Bowen respectively, each expressing the joy of "Hope" being completed.

From the beginning of the sci-fi story of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei in December last year, it has gone through script planning in January, team building and setting in February, shooting in March, and post-production from April to June.

After 7 months, "Hope" was completed successfully.

"Thank you, teachers." Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei thanked the teachers. Although they are the providers of the story and the producers of "Hope", the successful completion of the film is the result of everyone's joint efforts. They deeply appreciate it. Take it for granted.

"Chu Xuan, Qianqian." Kong Sheng said: "If your sci-fi plan is implemented, remember to call me. Among other things, at least in terms of work experience in sci-fi movies, we are leading in the country."

"Necessary. At that time, the team will be expanded based on the original team." Chu Xuan nodded. He and Concubine Liu's sci-fi plan is really going to be implemented. The experienced teachers in front of him are naturally the core team members of him and Concubine Liu. preferred character.

Hearing what Chu Xuan said, all the teachers nodded slightly.

Even though "Hope" is a microfilm, they have all learned a lot after several months.

What they learn is what they gain, and they are naturally eager to gain more for the improvement of their artistic abilities.

They also have a general idea of ​​Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei's sci-fi project.

Such a huge plan also involves the industrial base, but with the resources and financial endorsement of Brilliant Times, they are also very willing to participate, and they are expected to learn more.

The cameraman took out the USB flash drive, Wen Muye took it and handed it to Chu Xuan: "Brother."

There is a complete "Hope" movie in the USB flash drive, Chu Xuan took it and said: "There is a backup."

He handed the USB flash drive to Liu Yifei, and Liu Yifei put the USB flash drive into the small backpack.

"Of course." Wen Muye nodded and said, "After the people from the company apply for the copyright in the name of Brilliant Times Entertainment, senior brothers and sisters can submit the film to the school."

Brilliant Times Film and Television mainly produces film and television dramas, and the copyright of the film and television dramas is controlled by the head office Brilliant Times Entertainment.

The head office is firmly controlled by Chu Xuan and Wang Jinhua. Whoever owns the copyright wins the world. They are well aware of this, so naturally they want to hold the copyright in their own hands.

"You want to come to the graduation show." Concubine Liu Yi said, "You are the director, so you have to help us when you speak on stage."

After each graduation performance, the participants of the works have to accept questions from the judges and teachers, which is equivalent to the graduation defense of other schools.

According to the rules, anyone who participates in the work, regardless of whether they belong to Beijing Film Academy or not, can be invited to participate in the graduation performance.

"Brother Liu is coming too, you are the chief screenwriter." Chu Xuan said, grabbing Liu Yi's shoulder.

"Mr. Kong, Mr. Li, and Mr. Wang, you all have to come too. This is our joint work." He said again.

Everyone smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Then see you, teachers." Concubine Liu Yi took Chu Xuan's hand with one hand, and waved at the teachers with the other.

The two sides say goodbye for the time being.

When passing the "Zhu Xian" post-production office area, Zhao Jian looked at the happy expressions on the faces of the two, sat on the chair and said softly: "It's done?"

Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei nodded to Zhao Jian, Wu Qingyuan, and art teacher Qi, and made an "OK" gesture.

"Let's go first." They waved.

Under the watchful eyes of Zhao Jian and the others, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei had just walked out of the company gate when they met Huang Lei who turned around from the direction of the elevator.

"Good guy, those two papers of yours caused a riot in the office." Huang Lei grinned, walked over, stretched out his fist and gave Chu Xuan a hammer.

paper? ...Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi blinked.

"Riot? Brother Lei, can you be normal." Chu Xuan couldn't laugh or cry.

"It's really well written." Huang Lei once again approved of the papers of the two, saying: "The theory in it is experimental, forward-looking and practical. I really don't consider taking the postgraduate entrance examination? Or being a lecturer is fine."

"No, it's not appropriate." Chu Xuan shook his head.

Huang Lei raised his eyebrows, patted Chu Xuan, and said, "Are you pretending to be aggressive and running away?"

Chu Xuan couldn't help but nodded, and said: "It can be understood in this way."

Concubine Liu Yi held Chu Xuan with one hand and covered her mouth with the other, amused by their conversation.

Huang Lei was stunned, and stopped trying to persuade Chu Xuan, saying, "Graduation star, get ready to give a speech at the graduation ceremony. This is the unanimous decision of the teachers."

Graduation star? ...Chu Xuan raised his eyebrows, nodded and said, "Okay."

"That's it. I'll go in and see the situation of "Zhu Xian." Huang Lei nodded slightly, patted Chu Xuan's shoulder again, said nothing more, walked past the two of them, and walked into the company.

"Graduation star." Concubine Liu Yi followed Chu Xuan into the elevator, and said to him charmingly.

"However, as I expected, few people would be convinced if someone else was a graduation star." She said again, expressing her recognition of her boyfriend's excellence.

"Don't say that, your boyfriend will swell." Chu Xuan pulled Liu Yifei out of the elevator, and Liu Xiaoli was waiting in the nanny's car.

The two got into the car, but they didn't expect Sister Hua to be there.

The car started to go home, and they sat down on the sofa.

Hearing Concubine Liu Yi happily say that "Hope" has been completed, Liu Xiaoli and Wang Jinhua also gave them a thumbs up.

"The first production is completed, and we will see how it turns out." Wang Jinhua said with a little interest.

When the film and television company was first established, she and Chen Kaige also knew about Chu Xuan and Qianqian's sci-fi project, so they tested the water with micro-movies to see how the market responded.

This is a good idea to test the market with minimal cost.

It's just that the follow-up plan is too big, and how to implement it is currently unclear.

Of course, it's too early to say these things, and we'll see later.

Concubine Liu Yi told the story of Chu Xuan being the star of this year's graduation, which attracted Liu Xiaoli and Wang Jinhua to praise Chu Xuan like a child.

Then, Wang Jinhua said: ""Struggle" is done, Huang Xuan, Zhao Liying, Su Chang and Jiang Xin will perform with you, and it will start next month. You are ready."

Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi glanced at each other and nodded.

They are very interested in acting in an urban drama that they have never acted together before. The most important thing is that it is very easy to act in an urban drama, and they know all the important actors. They think that the filming process will be very pleasant. I am somewhat looking forward to it.

But until then, the graduation show is the big thing at the moment.

It's just that now that "Hope" has been completed, Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi have let go of most of their hearts that had been hanging a little bit before.

And on the second day, the copyright application and filing of "Hope" was successful, and it belonged to Brilliant Times Entertainment.

Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi went to the school immediately, and handed over the videos in the USB flash drive to the teachers of the review team who specialized in reviewing graduation works as micro movies.

So far, examinations, graduation thesis, graduation works, and the preparatory work for graduation have all been completed.

Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi didn't need to worry about the post-production of "Zhu Xian", and the next few days made it easier for them.

I spent a few days playing around at home without hearing anything outside the window.

It wasn't until the day of the graduation performance that they went out to the school.

——Beiying.

Near the end of June, the weather is getting hotter and hotter.

It was 24 degrees this morning, and it was estimated that the temperature would exceed 30 in the afternoon.

Under such weather, today's Beiying is also extraordinarily lively.

Most of the 2002 to [-] graduating students of the [-] class of undergraduates and junior colleges returned, and the campus was full of people, talking and walking.

The most important thing is that Han Sanping, Chen Kaige, Tang Jili, Zhang Jizhong, including the chairman of Brilliant Times Wang Jinhua also came.

This surprised the freshmen, sophomores, and juniors, and excitedly watched.

When Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi came to the school, they were also surprised by the sight of people everywhere in front of them, which was quite different from the usual situation where the school seemed to be vast and sparsely populated.

"Brother and sister!"

Many juniors and juniors greeted each other, and Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi waved back.

"Senior Brother and Senior Sister." Yang Mi waved her hand, trotted over, and said, "You guys will save face, and you can tell at a glance that the third master and director Kaige are here for you."

Chu Xuan led Concubine Liu Yi, walked side by side with Yang Mi, and said, "It's not for us, it's for our works."

"Is that different?" Yang Mi said, walking forward with Chu Xuan: "I heard that your graduation work is science fiction? It's a pity we can't read it."

"You can see it when you post it on the Internet." Concubine Liu Yi turned her head to look at Yang Mi.

Yang Mi nodded, glanced at Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi, and said, "Brother and sister, I heard that you are going to make a drama this year?"

Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi paused, Yang Mi's meaning couldn't be simpler, she probably wanted to get on their boat.

Chu Xuan glanced at Yang Mi, and said: "Purpose your acting skills well. This year the company will launch a variety show. You can try it. If you perform outstandingly, no matter how bad you are, you can still sign a film and television contract with Brilliant Times. I think Rong Xinda would be happy too."

Yang Mi pursed her lips. Chu Xuan's lack of a positive answer obviously rejected her idea of ​​taking the boat. After all, it was a drama between Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi, and any supporting role would be popular.

"Sculpture of the Gods" has already given her some benefits of being popular, and she has also won an award. It would obviously be a wonderful thing if she could continue to join the crew with Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi.

However, although Chu Xuan declined, he got news about a variety show in advance.

Variety show?Something to do with actors? ...Yang Mi's heart was pounding.

"Brother and sister, I understand, then I'll go to class first." She waved her hand and turned to leave.

Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi glanced at Yang Mi's leaving back, and Chu Xuan said, "She wants to fuck whenever she gets a chance."

Concubine Liu Yi stroked her hair, showing off her face and said, "I was pestering you when I was on the set of "Sculpture of Gods."

"What do you mean pestering me?" Chu Xuan shook his head, and said, "She is looking for an opportunity, she is quite scheming, and she will give in to Zhao Liying."

"Li Ying?" Concubine Liu Yi blinked and said, "Li Ying is very simple, okay?"

"Simple?" Chu Xuan smiled slightly: "Li Ying started doing odd jobs at the age of 16, and worked hard at the bottom for nearly two years. No matter how simple it is, we are her master and wife, and we really treat her well, so she We have always been naive in front of us, if you want to treat her as innocent, you will lose."

Concubine Liu Yi pouted her lips, thought for a while and said, "It doesn't matter if they are innocent or scheming, anyway, I just deal with them in my own way, and do whatever I feel comfortable with."

"Correct answer." Chu Xuan nodded in agreement.

Concubine Liu Yi shook Chu Xuan's hand, expressing her inner joy.

She looked around and saw that there were people all around, and there were many juniors and juniors watching them. She also guessed that some people were communicating with each other about their intimate gesture of holding hands.

She didn't care, and said, "Where are you going now? There is still an hour before the graduation performance."

"Go to the dormitory." Chu Xuan pulled her towards the direction of the dormitory building, and said, "I haven't been there for a long time, let's revisit the place where we first fell in love, and I probably won't come here again in the future."

Hearing his words, Concubine Liu Yi's memories flashed in an instant, and she said happily: "On the National Day of 03, we played in the dormitory for a week, and you gave me a copy of "Jane Eyre."

Chu Xuan nodded and said, "It's all memories."

The boys' dormitory area remained unchanged, with the same layout, and the same white gate with rust in it.

The classmates who came in and out greeted each other one by one, but the housekeeper aunt saw it, and the aunt yelled: "Hey, this young couple, when are you going to get down to business?"

This aunt can say anything... Concubine Liu Yi pursed her lips, feeling a little embarrassed. She still remembered that she and Chu Xuan waited for an opportunity to escape from the dormitory building to avoid the aunt's gaze, and she found it very interesting.

Chu Xuan looked at the aunt and said, "Will you come to drink then?"

"Then you must come!" The aunt was very enthusiastic, making the students nearby couldn't help laughing.

Chu Xuan smiled, and pulled Concubine Liu Yi up the stairs.

Familiar stairs, familiar rhombus-shaped white walls and lattice windows, except that they are a bit dilapidated, nothing has changed.

When he came to the door of the dormitory he hadn't seen for a long time, the door was closed, and someone had obviously woken up. Chu Xuan guessed that he was washing in the public bathroom.

Chu Xuan asked Concubine Liu Yi to wait by the side first, he kicked open the door, walked in and looked at Luo Jin and Huang Bo who were still on the bed, and said, "Get up, put on your clothes, the fairies are coming."

Fairy? ...Concubine Liu Yi covered her mouth and laughed.

Luo Jin and Huang Boben woke up. They were just lying on the bed and looking at their mobile phones. They heard someone shouting at the door, and looked over together.

Seeing that it was Chu Xuan, Luo Jin teased, "Please find another place for Xiu Enai, you are not welcome here."

Even so, the two of them got up and got dressed immediately.

Zhu Yawen walked over from the public toilet, holding a wash cup in his hand, and a face towel hanging on his shoulder. Looking at Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi at the door of the dormitory, he said, "Boss Chu didn't know how to bring breakfast when he returned to the dormitory."

He waved to Concubine Liu Yi again, and Concubine Liu Yi also waved back.

"I know if you guys ate or not? You didn't call in advance." Chu Xuan said something, and pulled Concubine Liu Yi into the dormitory.

Luo Jin and Huang Bo went out to wash up, Zhu Yawen went out to buy breakfast after putting away the things, and the brothers tacitly made room for Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi.

"Only your bed is empty." Concubine Liu Yi looked at the upper bunk on the right, there was only one bed board left, covered with a thick layer of dust, and there was also a lot of dust on the table below.

"Otherwise, it's been a long time since we moved," Chu Xuan said.

Concubine Liu Yi pulled Chu Xuan to the table, and said, "We used to eat noodles here at the beginning."

Chu Xuan nodded, and said, "You still lied to me that the courier was delivered by mistake, you witch."

Recalling the past, Concubine Liu Yi couldn't help laughing, and the good memories made her hold Chu Xuan's hand tightly, feeling the love in it.

In the dormitory, recalling the bits and pieces of his first love, when Zhu Yawen bought breakfast and ate it with Luo Jin and Huang Bo, the group set off for the large multimedia classroom.

Graduation performances are only for performance works, such as micro-movies, stage plays and the like.

There is no requirement to watch the stage play in the morning and the micro-movie in the afternoon, but most of the people will arrive at the scene before graduation to participate in this performance that belongs to their fresh graduates.

Participating in will make this graduation seem more meaningful.

A group of people lined up and followed the flow of people into the big classroom, and sat down in different departments and classes.

Almost every student looked at the few people sitting in the first row, Han Sanping, Chen Kaige, Zhang Jizhong, Tang Jili and Wang Jinhua. Their appearance made the performance more or less grand.

Many people also knew that these big figures probably came for Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi, more likely they came for their works.

To make these people so interested, the works of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei must be different.

Of course, science fiction movies are unique in the current market.

In this regard, many students, teachers, and school leaders also look forward to it.

After the dean and the school leaders gave a speech, the show started on time at nine o'clock in the morning.

With the actors coming on stage, the behind-the-scenes setting up the scene, and the stage lights being turned on, the show officially kicked off.

The xipi and erhuang double tunes of Peking opera, and the lyrical singing of Yue opera make people feel the charm of the quintessence of China, but they also make people drowsy.

At the moment, Beijing Film Academy does not have Peking Opera troupes or Yueju opera troupes, and they are all classified as opera troupes.

The Department of Chinese Opera is very diverse, including Peking Opera, Yue Opera, Wushu, Dance, Variety, etc. Although there are many types, there are not many students, only a little more than the students of the Acting Department.

If you want to say which department of Beijing Film Academy has the least number of students, it is the acting department. In recent years, it has only accepted less than 50 students each year.

There are more students in the Drama Department than in the Acting and Chinese Opera Departments, and they mainly study drama, opera and dance drama.

When it was time for the drama students to show, the enthusiasm of the students present was obviously higher. Compared with Peking Opera, which they didn’t understand, dramas were obviously easier to understand, and they could clearly distinguish the strength of the actors’ acting skills, and they had a sense of participation. .

"Lao Zhu and the others are on stage." Concubine Liu Yi tugged at Chu Xuan's arm and said, looking at the classmates who were on stage.

Chu Xuan nodded and watched with Concubine Liu Yi.

Zhu Yawen and Jiang Yiyan’s play is "Tea House", which is composed of three acts: the Reform Movement of [-], Warlords’ Melee and the Victory of the War of Resistance. .

There is a time limit for the display of graduation works, and they selected one of the excerpts as the display of the work.

It is naturally difficult and challenging to use such a classic drama as a graduation work, but the level of Zhu Yawen, Luo Jin and Jiang Yiyan is not bad, and their performances are lifelike.

"I see, the Qing Dynasty is coming to an end!" Following a voice, the play ended.

Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei applauded the students present, and sent praises to Zhu Yawen and the others on the stage.

Zhu Yawen's play was also the last show in the morning. After Zhu Yawen and his group were commented and answered questions, the students got up and left, leaving the show temporarily and going to the school cafeteria for lunch.

"Let's go to eat." Chu Xuan pulled Concubine Liu Yi up.

"Our microfilm is the first one in the afternoon." Concubine Liu Yi said, thinking that her work would be shown first in the afternoon, she was both excited and nervous for no reason.

Chu Xuan is also a little bit, after all, it is a sci-fi that has never appeared before, and they can decide whether it is good or not. He also looks forward to seeing the reactions of the students and the evaluation of the teachers.
