    Cheng Peng stood in front of the gate of the film school and looked at the six gilt characters in front of him. A familiar feeling welled up in his heart, as if he felt like he was in another world.  Since he came to the film school not to pursue memories, nor to find actors, but to find a suitable executive producer.  ??The film crew usually consists of several departments such as the director team, production team, drama team, photography team, art team, recording team, etc. Each department has a number of members, dozens of people.  ¡°If Cheng Peng were to recruit so many people and inspect them one by one, we wouldn¡¯t know what year and month it would be until the crew was formed.  So the best way is to find an executive producer and set up the production team first, so that many things can be handed over to the executive producer and production team.  Cheng Peng values ??this executive producer very much. He hopes that this person can continue to cooperate with him for a long time, become his arm, and even become the company's gold medal producer.  However, such people are not easy to find. China's commercial films are still in their infancy. Last year, Zhang Yimou's "Hero" just opened the curtain of Chinese commercial films. Veteran filmmakers lack sufficient understanding of the market and lack of pioneering spirit.  So Cheng Peng planned to find him from the graduate students majoring in production in the Management Department of the Film School.  There are two advantages to going to a film school. One is that young people have keen eyesight, are quick to accept new things, are enterprising, have a sense of pioneering, and can endure hardships; in addition, the film school is a large network of relationships, through which you can  There are many talents available through the network.  The best way to recruit people at the film school is to go to the department office. They can make recommendations based on your needs, which can save a lot of trouble.  Cheng Peng went straight to the college office building. When passing by the teaching building, he saw men and women walking upstairs with textbooks. Something in his memory was activated, and a strong situation boiled in his heart.  Feeling deeply nostalgic, he suddenly wanted to go up and have a look.  Go and have a look!  Cheng Peng looked up at the teaching building, took a breath, and walked upstairs.  Walking down the corridor, my steps were slow, and my whole body was immersed in memories. There was sadness, joy, laughter, and tears. An inexplicable emotion was rippling in my heart.  He suddenly felt envious. It would be great if he could experience such youth and campus life!  Looking at the classrooms, the students joking and laughing in the classrooms, and the youthful and energetic faces, he suddenly wanted to go in and sit.  Cheng Peng looked into a classroom. There were many people sitting in it. There should be classes, but the man in his twenties or nineteen sitting in the last row caught his attention.  At this age and in this outfit, he doesn¡¯t look like a student from a film school. He must be here to take classes!  Cheng Peng's eyes lit up, he walked in through the back door and sat down next to the man.  The man raised his head and glanced at Cheng Peng, then lay down on the table and continued to draw on the laptop with the mouse.  Cheng Peng took a look at the man. He was in his mid-twenties, a little fat, and chubby. He wore black-rimmed glasses. He looked a bit like Fan Wei, giving him a familiar feeling.  Then he went to look at what the man had drawn in his notebook. The drawings in the notebook made him stunned. It was a storyboard. Judging from the content of the drawing, it seemed to be about a person who encountered an opponent, ran away in fear, and then suddenly turned around.  Decided to fight with the opponent.  The man was a little unsure about the camera and composition of the movie. He made some changes, trying to find a way to have impact and truly show the character's inner transformation process, but he never found a satisfactory way of expression.  Cheng Peng pondered for a moment, and had a good idea in his mind. He lowered his voice and said, "You can try to express it like this. Set the camera opposite the actor, slightly at an angle, but facing the actor directly, and then the actor faces him.  The camera moves so that the actor's expression and eyes can be clearly captured. When the actor runs, the camera also moves with the actor. When the actor turns around and makes a decision, the camera also rotates, and then stops to film the actor making a decision.  Process." The man was startled, raised his head, glanced at Cheng Peng, and then lowered his head to paint.  After drawing the storyboard, he pondered for two seconds while looking at the storyboard, showing a look of surprise, and slapped his thigh: "It's wonderful, the camera moves when the actor moves, and the camera stays still when the actor thinks. It's like this.  It not only shows the changes in the characters' inner emotions, but also has a full sense of presence and a strong impact. It's wonderful!" He raised his head, looked at Cheng Peng, and said with admiration in his eyes, "Today.  I met a master, this shot is really awesome!" Cheng Peng smiled lightly and said: "It's just an ordinary way of moving the camera, I can't say you are a master. I think these storyboards you drew are pretty good. Are you planning to make a movie?  ?¡± The man smiled bitterly: ¡°??I would like to make a movie, but where is the opportunity? Who is willing to invest in a novice like me who has no filmmaking experience?  I am a gunman, drawing storyboards for others!  Cheng Peng comforted him with a smile and said: "Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. I think you are using your lens well, and you will definitely have a chance."  By the way, what class is this and which teacher is it?  " The man was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled: "Brother, you should also find out clearly about the class. You are so brave. You dare to come to Teacher Yang Xiaohe's class!  " "I'll go, it turns out it's Yang Laohu's class, I'd better hide away for a while!  "Yang Xiaohe has a bad temper and likes to chase people away. It's too difficult to take advantage of his class. Rather than being kicked out, it's better to leave by yourself. Seeing Cheng Peng getting up to leave, the man quickly shouted: "It's okay, it's okay. I have a good relationship with Teacher Yang. You  Sit with me and I won¡¯t chase you away.  " Do you have such a big reputation? That's Yang Laohu? Cheng Peng looked at the man in surprise, a little unbelievable: "You're not here for a class?  " The man chuckled and said somewhat proudly: "I'm just here to take advantage of the class, but I have a good relationship with Teacher Yang.  Which department are you from? I have never seen you before. Are you a new student at school?  Impossible, how could a newcomer have such a high level!  After saying that, he looked Cheng Peng up and down with a puzzled look on his face. Cheng Peng had a good impression of the man in front of him. From the storyboard, it can be seen that he has strong art skills and a very high level of storyboarding. He explained with a smile:  "I came to the school to do errands. I passed by the classroom building and saw students coming in and out, so I came in to have a look and experience what it was like to take classes at the film school. Which department are you in?  The man smiled and said, "I'm from the literature department."  What a coincidence, we all happened to be taking classes together!  " Cheng Peng was a little surprised. Most of the people in the literature department are screenwriters and script writers, but the person in front of him has excellent storyboarding and art skills. He is more like a director. He smiled and said: "The literature department can use the lens in this way.  There are not many with this level, Jia Zhangke is from the literature department, it seems you want to be second to Jia Zhangke!  !  " The man laughed and said: "Jia Zhangke is half of my idol. When I was in college, I accidentally watched Jia Zhangke's "Xiao Wu" and thought it was so awesome. I thought I would do the same in the future.  After graduating from college, he joined Liaoning TV Station as a stage art director. After working there for a while, he found it quite boring, so he went to the film school to take the Literature Department where Jia Zhangke originally studied, hoping that one day he would be able to make some interesting movies.  "The man had a very good impression of Cheng Peng and did not hide his experience at all. He is an amazing person who could give up his job as a stage director of a provincial TV station and come to be a student! Cheng Peng had some feelings for the man in front of him.  Respectfully, he said: "A script is the foundation of a play, and good scripts are hard to find.  Now even Zhang Yimou is worried about the script, and it is even more difficult for young directors. Who will get the good script?  If you want to get ahead, you can only write and direct by yourself, so studying literature is the right choice!  " The man was very happy to see that Cheng Peng agreed with his choice, and he felt as if he had a close friend when he met his son. To be honest, there are many people in this school who are high-minded and low-handed, including Godard and Fellini, who have such and such doctrines, but the real  There are very few people who can calm down and talk about scripts, and he really looks down on such people: "As soon as I saw you, I felt that I was very close to you. You are indeed a person of the same mind, which is interesting.  Come and meet me, my name is Zhang Meng!  " Cheng Peng was stunned. No wonder he felt familiar just now. It turned out to be the director of "The Piano of Steel". He was worried about where to find the assistant director. Wouldn't he find it now? A glimmer of light flashed in his eyes and he smiled.  "My name is Cheng Peng. I saw you outside the classroom and thought this guy looked familiar, so I came in. What a fate!"  " "Well said, fate!  By the way, what do you do?  What are you doing at the film school? If you need help, just ask. I am considered a local snake at the film school!  " "I opened a film and television company, and I'm going to make a movie recently. I'm here to recruit crew members.  " At this point, Cheng Peng paused, looked at Zhang Meng, and said: "Zhang Meng, I am looking for an assistant director. I wonder if you are interested. If you are interested, we can make this movie together!  " Zhang Meng's eyes widened. The person in front of him was only twenty-three or four years old. He was the boss of a company and was making movies. He really couldn't believe it. He hesitated and said: "Are you really fake?  " "I am indeed a little younger, but I am still quite confident in my own abilities. The storyboard is in the computer and class is about to begin. It is not convenient to take it out here. How about we find a place to have a good chat?  "Cheng Peng patted his chest. "Okay, I just want to see something, let's find an empty classroom!  "The two found an empty classroom. After sitting down, Cheng Peng opened his notebook and clicked on the storyboard of "The Two of Us": "Take a look and give me your opinions.  " After watching for more than half an hour, Zhang Meng finished reading the storyboard. He was really impressed and praised.Said: "My painting skills are a bit poor, and the characters are a bit ugly. Other than that, I really can't fault it. The story, camerawork, and composition are all great! Especially the use of color is so awesome."  Awesome, the colors of this movie are mostly cold, and the picture is dark and a bit depressing, so you arranged some red props, telephones, patrol hoops, the word "Happy", and red lanterns. Red is the warmest color, and these are embellished with red.  It dilutes the depressive feeling of the movie, gives people hope, and makes people feel warm. And these red props have a strong symbolic meaning, such as the phone, which is a tool for the old lady to communicate with the outside world and eliminate inner loneliness.  It is also the hope in the heart of the elderly, and red is the color that gives people hope. In addition, the colors of winter, spring, summer, and autumn are also given special meanings. You use different colors in the four seasons to express the changes in the relationship between the characters. Winter is the color of hope.  Gray is green in spring, red in summer, and yellow in autumn, which correspond to quarrel, understanding, harmony, and farewell respectively. It¡¯s really awesome, I¡¯m convinced!¡± Zhang Meng originally studied stage design, and the composition and colors were his.  is his strong point, and Cheng Peng did an extremely good job in this part. He was really convinced.  "How about it, are you interested? If you are interested, make this film with me. When the funds are sufficient in the future, I can also invest and let you make the film!" Cheng Peng knew that Zhang Meng later made a film to attract investment.  The boss got excited and said seductively with a smile.  Zhang Meng almost didn¡¯t think about it and replied directly: ¡°Only a fool would refuse such an awesome movie, so I¡¯m joining it!¡±
