Chapter 25 025. The difference between art and industry
"There is still capital verification?...Gym capital verification? Are you sure?"
Xu Xin was a little startled, looking at this beautiful woman in front of her who was very decent in terms of clothing, appearance, and temperament, it was like watching a mental illness.
But after hearing this, the beauty didn't feel any displeasure, but said politely:
"It's a sports club, Mr. Xu. We not only have a gym, but also a series of facilities including golf courses, health clubs, professional sports rehabilitation centers, etc. These are all free for our members. At the same time, we Every coach is internationally certified and has the qualifications of a professional instructor..."
Hearing her talking endlessly about the power of the gym, Xu Xin was speechless.
He found this place on the Internet last night. It is just above the Xiangjiang Jockey Club Club building on Jinbao Street next to Shijia Hutong.
So I came here to ask today, and if I think about it, I will do it here.
Anyway, close to home.
Gotta admit, this place does look pretty high-end.
Decoration and the like far exceed the old home.
But in Xu Xin’s opinion, that’s all there is to it, it’s just a gym, no matter how luxuriously decorated, the equipment that should be used is just those things.
So, after he confirmed that he was satisfied with the location, he said that he wanted to apply for a card without listening to the beauty's introduction.
As a result, the other party actually told me to verify the capital...
The price of annual membership is 100,000.
At first glance, it is indeed a bit taken advantage of.
But following her introduction, Xu Xin immediately became interested when he heard about equestrian training, shooting, archery and so on.
Gun?
"Can you really shoot a gun?"
"Yes, we have quite a lot of joint partners, but the bullets for shooting training need to be paid separately. The price of a bullet has just been raised this year. The price is based on the imported and domestic bullets, as well as the models of different firearms. The price is between It ranges from five yuan to thirty yuan."
"Get a card!"
Before she could finish speaking, Xu Ershao, who was interested, directly took out the gold card in his bag.
What follows is a series of processes that Xu Xin is not interested in watching.
For example, they only need to make a phone call, hold Xu Xin's bank card and talk to the phone for a few words to complete the capital verification. For example, some... Xu Xin has never heard of some big-name fitness brands in the professional sports field to claim Barabara.
He only remembered the phone number of the beautiful woman who gave him a card. After realizing that he would have any needs in this regard, she would be his personal consultant, so he started to choose a personal trainer.
Picked the most pleasing female coach named "Yu Fei".
It is said that he has won a classical award in some international competition, and the muscle mass looks scary enough.
At the same time, he turned out to be a famous yoga instructor...
Courses are also very expensive, more than 1,000 per class.
It doesn't matter.
After getting to know each other for a while, and leaving a phone number, Second Young Master Xu simply didn't leave today.
Start practicing directly.
In the early morning, he finally felt the sourness of this coach Yufei.
To be honest, whether it is exercise courses, or some things about nutrition intake and fitness plans, they are much more professional than Brother Sun.
This money is worth the money.
…
At noon, Xu Xin walked out of the gym after eating the special fitness meal and enjoying the relaxing essential oil massage.
Drive to the car market.
It turned out that the door was not opened.
After a trip for nothing, he was not looking for a place to entertain himself, but returned home honestly, and started looking for movies to watch.
Mainly the calf is a bit sour.
I can't bear it anymore.
At night, he went to the gym again.
Not for anything else, just for that fitness meal.
It’s not that he doesn’t have the money to hire a nanny and cook, it’s just that he’s going home for the New Year now, so where can he mess with people?
Adding that I don’t know how to cook.
Since you want to exercise, you should show an attitude.
After eating, it was getting dark, and his body instinctively became restless.
But with the first lesson of yoga learned in the morning - meditation, everything became invisible.
Reading, sleeping.
Then, at noon on the seventh day of the seventh day, Yu Zhen looked at herself, a student with a completely new look, and didn't have any special feelings.
It just feels like... my vacation is over.
…
"Well…"
In the dimly lit screening room, Yu Zhen and her husband Wang Wenyu saw the taxi fading away on the screen. After the film finished playing, the couple looked at each other.
Yu Zhen was actually quite surprised.
Although the film has not been edited yet, as a director, she naturally has the ability to group the content needed in countless films into a whole.
After going through all the plots in her mind, she nodded:
"Xu Xin, this movie... even if there is no editing now, I can give you a... 70 points."
Xu Xin frowned:
"So low?"
"Is this still low?"
Yu Zhen raised her eyebrows:
"Then what do you think the score should be?"
"Well…"
"9...95 points."
"You child..."
Opened the door of the room where the parents lived in the screening room, glanced at the daughter who was still doing homework in her own room, and made sure that the precious girl was not lazy, so Yu Zhen said:
"Actually, I can understand your feelings. I remember... when I first made a movie, I also thought that the movie I made was the best in the world. After all, it is my own child~ so I can understand, but the truth is, although From the conception of the script, conception, to the core of your film, it is enough to prove your literary talents. But you must know that a good script needs a good director. As directors, we Its meaning is to turn an artistic conception that can only be attached to words into the most straightforward screen image and present it to the audience."
"So... thank you, Master."
Just as he was about to speak, Xu Xin quickly thanked Wang Wenyu, who was not a film practitioner, and handed him a glass of water.
then asked:
"Teacher Yu, what's wrong with my filming? I think it's perfect. Whether it's the scene structure, the camera language... Could it be the acting?"
"On the one hand."
Sitting on the sofa, Yu Zhen nodded:
"As far as a student is concerned, your performance is already perfect. Even, if you didn't lose a lot of professional knowledge in the first half of the semester..."
"Teacher Yu, don't worry, I will study hard this semester."
"Well, I know, I can see it."
Looking at the light in her student's eyes, Yu Zhen naturally couldn't believe it.
Being a good teacher is actually like this.
Although she knew that some words would hurt the student, in order to point him in the right direction, she still had to say:
"Acting is a deduction item. But for you students, it is already enough. Regardless of whether there are lines or not, your performance can actually give a passing score..."
"What if it's not about students?"
Seeing the desire to win and lose in the eyes of her students, Yu Zhen understood...
This kid is pretty good.
After thinking about it, she asked:
"Do you want to be a director or an actor?"
"Of course it's the director...Although I made this film myself, I still like to stand behind the scenes. The main reason is that it feels uncomfortable to go back and check one after acting."
"Well... You don't really need to pay too much attention to acting skills. You can follow the course. When you are in your sophomore year, there will naturally be a class teaching you how to distinguish an actor's acting skills. If I tell you now, it will mislead you. How about it? "
"…good."
"Then let's talk about what I think is wrong with this script."
Under the motion of Xu Xin sitting up straight subconsciously, Yu Zhen said:
"It's still the same sentence. For someone who has just attended half a semester... or hasn't studied hard for half a semester, your sensitivity to the language of the camera is enough to prove your talent. However, if you watch this movie slowly , in fact, you will find that many shots are messed up by you."
"...messy?"
"Yes."
Yu Zhen picked up a notebook on the coffee table.
The book was blank.
And she picked up the pen and drew a dot on the blank paper.
Black spots.
It is very eye-catching on white paper.
"Tell me, what did you see?"
"Black spots."
"Right? Even if the black dot occupies less than one percent of the paper, you still see it."
Hearing this, Xu Xin frowned.
"what do you mean…"
“Have you ever wondered whether movies are static art or dynamic art?”
“Kinetic art, of course.”
"That's right, do you think there is static beauty in its dynamics?"
"Of course."
"Look, here's the problem."
Her pen tip touched the paper:
"This piece of paper is your screen. It is dynamic. And this point is static. It may not be much, but you can remember it at a glance. And this is the flaw of your film. First of all, you are using the follow-up method. Although the lens is trying to be calm, in essence, your static is not good enough...or almost not.
And as you said just now, your filming went very smoothly, and you finished the ten-minute shot in a few hours. soon? definitely. But have you ever thought that the reason why you think the shooting is smooth is because the camera language in the film conforms to your thoughts? In other words, through countless shooting details, such as acting, camera, lighting, picture and a series of links, through them, can you interpret the lens you need smoothly? "
"..."
Xu Xin's frown became tighter and tighter.
After thinking for a moment, he asked:
"You mean...it feels right...but...it's only because I feel that the shooting is in line with my inner feelings, so I am qualified. It's not that I want to make every link of the lighting and the actors' acting skills in line with me. requirements, so that quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes, interpreting it as the style in my heart?"
Although his words are a bit convoluted, the actual meaning is very simple.
The former is: if you shoot according to my ideas, then there is no problem.
The latter is: this is qualified, the next one is also qualified, and the next one is also qualified. Countless qualifications formed an absolutely solid support point, building the "no problem" he wanted.
The two sound similar at first glance.
But actually... like Ferrari and Chery QQ.
They are all cars, but one is a work of art, and the other is an industrial flow product.
Worlds apart.
Hearing this, Yu Zhen showed a satisfied expression and nodded:
"Xu Xin..."
"?"
Looking at the doubtful eyes of her disciple, she spoke earnestly, her eyes full of expectation:
"Promise to the teacher and study hard. From the former, try to become the latter, okay?"
