After Yu Dong invited him to take a seat, Tang Shaoyong remembered and asked: "Teacher Yu, why did you and Xiao Ke come here together?"
"I was looking for someone to ask for directions just now, and I happened to ask Hu Ke, and then I realized that he was the Xiao Ke you praised so much." Yu Dong said with a smile.
"So, Xiao Ke and you are really destined." Tang Shaoyong laughed and said, "This guy has a pretty good image, right?"
"That's right." Yu Dong nodded and looked at Hu Ge, "I heard from Director Tang that you are going to apply for the Yanjing Film Academy to study directing?"
Hu Ge rubbed his head in embarrassment, "I just have this idea. I have considered several schools."
"Including Jin Yi?"
"Well, including Jin Yi."
Yu Dong smiled and said, "There is nothing special about my return to Shanghai this time. My alma mater, Hongxing Primary School, has just built a building recently. I will go back and have a look. I happened to hear Director Tang tell you about you, so I stopped by to see you. If
Okay, I would like to invite you to your gold art school."
Hearing this, Hu Ge and Tang Shaoyong were stunned. Neither of them expected that Yu Dong would be so direct and straightforward.
Moreover, he didn't have much contact with Hu Ke, so he decided so quickly.
"I, I..." Even though Hu Ke had more experience than his peers, he was still a little at a loss when suddenly faced with such a life-affecting choice.
Yu Dong smiled and waved his hand, "Xiao Ke, you don't have to worry, I just expressed my wishes first. Compared with the three schools of Shang Drama, China Drama and Yanjing Film Academy, Jinyi Drama Department started relatively late.
If you do it too late, it will inevitably make people feel that they are not confident enough.”
Tang Shaoyong said quickly at the side, "No, no, Jin Yi's drama department has been around since the 1960s. It has a long history, but it was interrupted for a while."
"Director Tang, we still seek truth from facts when it comes to children. Jin Yi did start late in drama. This is a disadvantage of Jin Yi, but Jin Yi also has two advantages. First, Jin Yi is highly comprehensive, whether it is art or music.
The relevant majors are very strong. Secondly, the gold art teaching method is relatively open, giving students more opportunities to practice."
Tang Shaoyong smiled and said to himself that Yu Dong said it quite euphemistically. What are more practical opportunities? Isn't it the school's abundant resources and the opportunities for students to film?
This is also the main reason why Tang Shaoyong recommended Hu Ke to go to Jinyi. As someone who has been there, Tang Shaoyong knows that if you want to make a name for yourself in the film and television industry, your strength is important, but your platform cannot be ignored.
As for the first advantage mentioned by Yu Dong, it is not just a matter of numbers.
At first glance, it may seem that the strength of other majors in the school has nothing to do with the drama department. In fact, this is not the case. Literature and art majors are very interoperable and strong in other majors, which is also helpful for students' comprehensive development in school.
For example, as long as they are students majoring in directing, at least their shot drawings will be very beautiful, because when they were in school, teachers in this major would often ask teachers from the art department to improve their painting skills.
Another point that is more realistic is that studying gold art can expand your network of contacts. From the beginning, your contacts are all over the art and music circles.
Hu Ke might not have thought of this, but Tang Shaoyong knew it very well. Seeing that Hu Ke didn't speak, he smiled and said, "Teacher Yu is right, didn't your dad want you to learn calligraphy before? I know Jin Yi
There are many teachers who are good at calligraphy, and there is one right in front of you."
Yu Dong said modestly, "I usually love graffiti, not calligraphy, but if Xiao Ke wants to learn, I can introduce you to a teacher."
Before Hu Ge could respond, Tang Shaoyong added, "Xiao Ke, don't you still want to learn singing? If you go to Jinyi, you will have the conditions for this. Jinyi's music major is not easy now."
Yu Dong glanced at Tang Shaoyong, who looked anxious, with a smile, and said to himself that Director Tang was really good for Hu Ge.
It stands to reason that Yu Dong personally came to invite, and the current conditions of Jinyi are not much worse than those of several other schools. The average student would definitely agree directly, but Hu Ge still looked hesitant.
Yu Dong didn't understand why Hu Ge reacted this way, but Tang Shaoyong slapped his head and said, "Xiao Ke, I know what you are hesitating about. Are you worried about your mother and don't want to go too far?"
"Yeah." Hu Ge nodded lightly.
If it weren't for his mother's affairs, he wouldn't have hesitated between going to theater, China Theater and Yenching Film Academy.
Yu Dong looked puzzled, "What's wrong with Xiaoke's mother?"
Tang Shaoyong sighed and said to Yu Dong, "Xiao Ke's mother was diagnosed with cancer when he was very young, and her health has not been good these years. He should be worried that he has gone too far and will not be able to come back often in the future.
The father alone can't handle the workload at home. Moreover, it's far away and the round trip fare is not cheap."
Yu Dong unexpectedly glanced at Hu Ge, who had his head lowered. He didn't expect that there was such a thing in Hu Ge's family, because Hu Ge gave people the impression that he was the kind of child who grew up in a good family and lived a happy life.
After thinking about it, Yu Dong said, "Jinling is not very far. It takes more than four hours by car. It can be reached by walking in the morning at noon. You don't have to worry about travel expenses. Jinling has many part-time jobs for students, and the pay is not high.
, but there shouldn’t be much of a problem paying for the round trip.”
In fact, based on Hu Ge's conditions, after coming to school, he will definitely be able to get some jobs and make money on his own. Moreover, Jin Yi does not prevent students from filming, so he can also choose to film.
The reason why Yu Dong didn't say this was because he didn't want Hu Ge to have the idea of ​​going to school to make money early from the beginning. This kind of idea is not a good thing for his future development.
Jinyi does not prevent students from taking roles, but it also controls them. It will not let students take too many roles that will affect their studies, nor will they let students take roles that are of low quality.
Hearing what Yu Dong said, Hu Ge nodded and said, "Teacher Yu, I will definitely consider it seriously."
"Well, there's no need to rush. The exams are still in a year and a half. You can discuss it with your parents after you go back. No matter what, the door of Jinyi will always be open for you."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Although Hu Ge did not immediately agree to go to Jinyi, but Dudong's goal has been achieved, at least judging from Hu Ge's attitude, he has already made the move
.
There is still a year and a half left, and Yu Dong has many ways to get Hu Ge to go to Jinyi.
In fact, Hu Ge doesn't go too far away, which is good news for Jin Yi. No matter what, Jin Yi is much closer than China National Theater and Yanjing Film Academy.
The only one left is the Shanghai Theater Academy, so Jin Yi should be more confident.
Yu Dong still hopes to get Hu Ge out of Jinyi. Hu Ge looks very sunny on the surface, and he shows a bright smile without saying a few words, but after contact with him, Yu Dong can feel that Hu Ge has a strong
Far beyond the composure of his peers.
This kind of composure is more important than talent, it can allow Hu Ge to go further.
…
He chatted with Tang Shaoyong and Hu Ge until past four o'clock. After declining Tang Shaoyong's invitation to have dinner together, Yu Dong stood up and said goodbye.
"You came all the way here, why don't we have a meal together?"
"No." Yu Dong smiled and pushed Tang Shaoyong inside again, "Stay here, I'll go by myself."
"After all, you have to let me give you a piece of it."
"It's really not necessary." Yu Dong smiled, put on his hat and sunglasses, "Let me come quietly, and then leave quietly."
After saying that, Yu Dong walked away quickly.
After walking eastward, Tang Shaoyong looked at the aisle, smiled and said to Hu Ge next to him, "Among the celebrities who have appeared in Shanghai in recent years, this one is the most powerful."
Hu Ge secretly nodded in agreement.
In fact, in terms of popularity alone, even if we push forward a few decades, few people can match Yu Dong.
"You should think carefully about what Teacher Yu said just now, and talk to your parents when you get back. Anyway, I have told you everything that needs to be said. There is definitely nothing wrong with choosing Jinyi."
"Yes, I know. I will discuss it with my parents when I get back."
"Okay, there's nothing else to do today. You can go back first."
…
Yu Dong did not return to Jinling that day, but went to the Shanghai Writers Association again, met Cheng Yongxing and Wang Anyi, and had dinner with them.
Except for Jin Yucheng and Zhao Lihong who were not there, everyone else who was familiar with Yu Dong was basically there. Zhao Changtian and Zhao Yan and his son were also present, and there was a large table full of people.
When the meal was almost done, Cheng Yongxing said with a smile: "How many days will you stay when you come back this time?"
"I won't wait any longer. I'll go back tomorrow and come back when I have time. When you have nothing to do, you can also go to Jinling to find me. Yu Hua and the others are all here."
Wang Anyi pouted, "How can you have free days like yours? Now we have to get approval from our leaders when we go out. Otherwise, if you hold a cultural event in deep space and send us a letter to invite us there, you will have a reason to ask for leave."
Yu Dong was surprised and said, "Are you so strict now?"
Zhao Changtian smiled and said, "Don't listen to what your Sister Wang said. How can she be so strict? It's just that she has to tell her in advance before going out. She is used to being undisciplined, so she doesn't feel comfortable with it."
Yu Dong probably heard what was going on. It was probably because the Writers Association had put forward some new requirements for professional writers like them, and they were no longer as free as before, so Wang Anyi complained like this.
The others didn't seem to want to talk about this matter. Wang Yu pushed up her glasses and asked, "Yu Dong, can you publish your latest work in Harvest?"
"Yeah." Cheng Yongxing also took up the conversation, "You don't have to worry about the length. Even if it's a little longer, we can still send it to you. Look at you, how long has it been since you sent us a manuscript? That one of yours last year
"Curse" is very suitable for our "Harvest". If I had known about this book earlier, I would have shamelessly asked you to publish it in our magazine."
Yu Dong smiled and said, "There is a chance, there is a chance."
The perfunctory tone in his tone was unabashed, causing Cheng Yongxing to curl his lips.
It’s true that Yu Dong hasn’t published an article in Harvest for a long time, or in other words, he hasn’t published a novel in the magazine for a long time.
Nowadays, his novels do not go through the magazine process at all, but are directly published as single volumes, and several volumes are released simultaneously in multiple languages.
Of course Cheng Yongxing and the others could understand, knowing that Yu Dong's current novels did not need to be read through magazines at all, but they still couldn't help but ask Yu Dong for manuscripts.
Seeing them asking for manuscripts, Zhao Changtian also joined in the fun, "Yes, Yu Dong, if you have manuscripts, you must also think about our "Grudge". Our magazine is also very short of manuscripts now."
Yu Dong rolled his eyes, "Mr. Zhao, if you want a manuscript for "Sprouting", you can definitely ask Zhao Yan. He is now a famous and popular writer in deep space. If he contributes to your magazine, the sales will definitely double."
"It's not that I haven't made an appointment with this guy before, but he keeps pushing me back. I've heard him tell me all kinds of reasons."
Ge Fei laughed, "Mr. Zhao, you said that you are also the leader of a society. Why did Zhao Yan reject you? You can't even taste it? Now the development of deep space is so good, there are more and more readers, and the benefits provided by the website
No matter how good the treatment is, how much money can you give him? As a father and son, we have to settle the accounts clearly. Zhao Yan is not confused, so he made a good calculation."
Speaking of the treatment in deep space, Cheng Yongxing complained quite a bit, "Now it is getting harder and harder to do physical work. The treatment you give in deep space is too high, and the writers are not willing to send their manuscripts to other places."
"Yes, our "Grudge" is also greatly affected."
Yu Dong twitched his lips and ignored them at all.
The continued development of deep space does have an impact on these magazines, but at this stage this impact is still very limited.
Let’s talk about Harvest first. The manuscripts published by Deep Space Harvest are basically popular novels and attractive essays. Such articles cannot be included in magazines like Harvest. There is relatively little overlap in content between the two parties.
Let's talk about "Sprouting". There is indeed a conflict between the two parties in terms of content, but there is little overlap in the audience groups.
The audience of "Sprouting" is basically middle school students in school, and middle school students basically don't have time to go online at all. For daily reading, these students still rely on the magazines sold at the school gate.
Moreover, after deep space novels become popular, magazines can also choose to pay a sum of money to reprint them.
Wang Yu asked curiously, "You give so many bonuses for each essay competition, but where does your money come from? I heard that deep space loses money, is it going to keep losing money like this?"
Hearing Wang Yu ask this, others were also curious and looked at Yu Dong with bright eyes.
Seeing their curiosity, Yu Dong explained with a smile, "Deep Space is indeed still losing money, but the website's losses are not as serious as you think. The website still has sources of income. For example, Zhao Yan's "The End of the Great Wall",
After the book gained popularity on the website, it was not long before a single volume was published, with sales reaching hundreds of thousands of copies."
"Part of the money from the sales of hundreds of thousands of books will go to Deep Space. If "The End of the Wall" can be made into a TV series, movie, or even a game, Deep Space will also get a share of the copyright fees."
"Is this money enough to operate Deep Space?" Ge Fei expressed doubts, "The operating costs of Deep Space are still quite high. As far as I know, some writers can get some considerable subsidies from the website regularly even though they have no achievements.
."
"For the time being, the profits generated by IP derivatives cannot support deep space operations, but it doesn't matter. The value of these IPs will only get higher and higher, and more and more IPs can be operated because the market is getting bigger and bigger.
In addition, in addition to these, there are naturally other ways to make money in deep space."
Cheng Yongxing exclaimed: "Your company is probably only capable of this website. If it had been another company, it would have been unable to handle it."
