Chapter 106 Units(1/2)
"Monk, you are so awesome."
Xu Rong received a call from Li Youbin unexpectedly while eating at noon. When he heard what he said without thinking, he didn't react at all.
He subconsciously thought that Li Youbin was talking about his blushing, but wasn't this guy's reflex arc too long?
Things started to ferment at the end of August last year, good guy, and now I can’t congratulate him until he falls behind in the competition for the first niche.
His heart is despicable and his behavior is despicable!
But in terms of language, he couldn't let Li Youbin hear his complacency, and he said nonchalantly: "Hey, what's so cool about you? I just took on random roles because of the high pay. I didn't expect everyone to be so good."
Like it, it’s all luck, it’s all luck.”
Liu Jiang and Hai Qing, who were sitting opposite him, were stunned for a while. Although Xu Rong spoke modestly, his complacency was not concealed at all. He almost said that we acted casually, but he became inexplicably popular.
Well, what can I do?
"What kind of luck? Are you in a daze? Did you know that your recording was published by the People's Art Institute Journal? Your sister-in-law just brought me a copy. Good guy, the People's Art Institute Journal. By the way, you kid
Don’t you want to change your career to engage in theory?”
"ah?"
Xu Rong was stunned when he put the rice in his mouth, and he didn't react.
People's Art Journal publishes one's own recording?
Isn't it also a criticism?
The People's Art Journal is different from those outsiders. If Renyi catches him and criticizes him, he will become a complete joke in the industry.
It's not surprising that Shi Lanya can see the People's Art Academy Journal. She is a People's Art actress herself.
At this time, he was still in the mood to eat, and said hurriedly: "No, are you serious?"
"Why am I lying to you? The dean of Renyi has spoken highly of you and said you are a genius."
Xu Rong was startled again, and then he realized that he had misunderstood. As a holy place in the drama industry, Renyi is a place where talents gather. Generally, no more than five new people are recruited from the three major universities every year. The threshold is higher than that of the three major universities.
We are still on the same level, so we won't make such a low-level mistake.
Suppressing the ecstasy in his heart, Xu Rong said as calmly as possible: "Really? I just said it casually. It's everyone's compliment. It can't be taken seriously, it can't be taken..."
"Dududu..."
Xu Rong looked at the phone and did not feel unhappy at all because Li Youbin suddenly hung up. He even grinned happily for a while.
Liu Jiang saw that he had been silly and happy after hanging up the phone, and asked: "What's wrong, Teacher Xu? Is there anything good you can do?"
Xu Rong suppressed the excitement in his heart and wanted to send a text message to Li Youbin to ask for details, but after compiling the message and before sending it, he forcibly held back.
Can he take such a small thing as appearing in the People's Art Academy Journal to his heart?
Li Youbin must learn what it means to be unfazed by favor or disgrace, and what it means to be calm when facing big events!
But he changed his hands and immediately sent a message to Jin Fangfang: Buy the latest magazine of the People's Art Institute and see if there is any content about me.
He didn't hand the phone to Wang Yaqin. He had to wait and see if the news Li Youbin just said was true.
The People's Art Journal is an extremely niche journal, and its target group is not a broad audience, and its influence is only limited to a very small range.
And this scope is quite specific, that is, drama-related majors in major art universities and major drama troupes.
When Xu Rong entered the school and turned to the first page of the textbook, the only two concepts that impressed him the most were "Shishi" and "Human Art".
In the teaching materials, performance theory is mainly based on Shi's theory, supplemented by human art. As for classic examples and pull films, human art directly slaughters the version, leaving no way for others to survive.
Opening the textbook, in addition to Shi, they are full of people such as Yu Zhi, Zheng Rong, Lan Tianye, Tong Chao, etc. Specifically, they are very similar to Zhu Xi in "The Analects of Confucius".
The Journal of the People's Arts Academy is one of the sources of these "collections", and over time, the journal has become the most cutting-edge reference material for drama-related majors in major colleges and universities and the training classes of major theater troupes.
For the more important cutting-edge theories in academic journals, major universities will directly select them and include them in teaching materials or textbooks.
As for the author, he will become one of the most hated people by many students.
Made put it simply!
The last time his class teacher asked him to star in a scene from "The Big Deal", although he was a little proud, he was not too complacent.
It has almost become a fact recognized by the industry that the school's study style is not good. To a large extent, the class teacher probably has the original intention of urging the students to focus on the study of professional abilities.
He also knew very well that there was still a big gap between him and Yu Zhi, Li Xuejian and others.
But appearing in the People's Art Academy magazine and being a teacher are two completely different concepts.
Maybe, maybe his words may be selected into one of the five higher art education textbooks!
And the possibility is very high, because he is discussing the relatively basic reading of scripts.
After seeing the photos taken by Jin Fangfang, Xu Rong took a long breath and kept hinting to herself: "Calm down, calm down, this is just a small matter."
Jin Fangfang sent the photo and immediately asked: "The situation is very strange now. Many people who criticized you before suddenly became silent, and some even turned around and started praising you on their blogs. Do you know what's going on?"
Xu Rong thought for a while and replied: "Maybe it feels like a slap in the face."
He can understand Jin Fangfang's doubts, just like the public cannot understand the meaning of the People's Art Academy Journal, but anyone who has received professional training from an art college or drama troupe knows it very well.
Xu Rong thought that this matter would come to an end, but then another thing happened that completely confused him.
A lesser-known actor published an article through "** Drama". Unlike Wu Gang who praised him to the highest standards, the lesser-known actor mainly explained his theory.
Because he spoke relatively briefly, and the annotations elaborated on his first and second feelings about reading the script and his coping strategies in more detail.
Regarding the third option he proposed, while elaborating, the lesser-known actor made some supplements, such as in addition to biography, he should also improve his aesthetic accomplishment, appreciation of drama and literature, and dabble in more realism.
Works and feel the feelings conveyed in them.
This little-known actor is named Zheng Rong.
Throughout the article, there is no good or bad evaluation of his theory, only comments and supplements.
Then, Xu Rong’s phone number exploded.
It was even more popular than "Night" when it became a hit in the ratings.
Because this little-known actor is one of the few regulars in drama performance professional textbooks, and there is basically a paragraph on it every few pages.
The frequency of occurrence is only slightly inferior to Sozhi.
When Xu Rong heard the news, his heart was calm.
Would Faraday jump out and annotate a young man's paper?
Definitely not!
He guessed that Wu Gang was joking with him.
But when the calls came one after another, he was a little panicked. When he saw the photos taken by classmate Xiao Zhang, he became even more panicked.
This, this, this...
He really never expected that a recording would turn the names of people in the textbook into reality and pop up for him to annotate.
What the hell, this is a big joke!
The article annotated by the unknown actor seemed to be a signal, and then his alma mater Nortel, followed closely by China Theater, Shanghai Theater and major theater companies, all stood up and criticized the so-called drama critics who had previously targeted him. The critical remarks were extremely violent.
Literary attacks have always been murderous and heart-wrenching, and for a time he was almost ruined.
Because after Zheng Rong's annotation, it is certain that Xu Rong's theory will be selected for inclusion in the next revision of the textbook due to its fundamentality and practicality.
The authority of the textbooks cannot be doubted.
Under pressure, those who had previously criticized him had to stand up and apologize one by one.
In particular, Zhang Jizhong, who has great influence among the masses, probably originally wanted to be a coward and refused to accept any form of interview from any media.
However, under the overwhelming pressure from all parties, I had to apologize: "I am not a professional actor, I don't know much about these things, and it is always inevitable that I say the wrong thing."
At this time, Xu Rong was in the hotel, accepting an exclusive interview with "** Drama" magazine.
The host was a chubby middle-aged man in his forties with 37-point hair, his name was Jiang Zhitao, and he wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses. Seeing that Xu Rong was ready, he asked: "Teacher Xu, shall we start?"
"Well, that's it."
Jiang Zhitao did not take the script, but sat opposite him as if chatting, and said: "Can you tell me your views on dialogue dramas and dramas in general?"
Xu Rong's attitude towards this interview was completely different from the last Nandu interview. The last time it was entertainment in nature, promoting a new drama, but this time it was more professional. He thought for a while and then said: "I'm sorry, my acting experience is mainly Regarding film and television, I watch a lot of dramas, but I don’t have much acting experience, so it’s hard to talk about it.”
Jiang Zhitao looked at him in surprise and said with a smile: "It has always been said that you are very bold when facing the media. But now it seems that is not the case?"
Xu Rong waved his hands and smiled and said: "The main reason is that the groups targeted are different. The entertainment media mainly aims to entertain everyone, but the content of our magazine will be quoted a lot. I am short-sighted and I am afraid of making mistakes if I say something wrong."
This is the truth. The content published by "** Drama" has been cited by the industry all year round. If it is wrong, it would be a joke.
He can't express any opinions about things he doesn't know much about.
Jiang Zhitao changed the subject: "What do you think of Mr. Zheng Rong's annotation on your theory?"
Xu Rong was prepared for this question and said straightforwardly: "I admire it very much, especially the supplement in the last paragraph. I read it carefully many times and gained a lot. It also shows that I do still have many shortcomings that need to be learned and improved."
"Have you ever thought about doing drama?"
Xu Rong immediately said: "Yes, I have been preparing for the human art exam, but I don't know if I can pass it. Teacher Jiang should also know that the human art exam is more difficult. To be honest, I actually don't have much confidence."
