A few people didn't doubt that Zhou Yan was bragging. After all, they knew a little bit about Zhou Yan's net worth. A few million might be an astronomical figure to others, but it was nothing to Zhou Yan.
Liang Bolong knew more about music than the other people, and he even felt that the millions Zhou Yan said might be an understatement.
When he entered this large recording studio just now, Liang Bolong immediately saw the Steinway b211 placed on the stage. This is a million-level piano.
This is the second time Liang Bolong has seen this piano live. The last time was when he saw a performance at Yanjing Concert Hall.
Just a piano costs one million, not to mention the others. It is possible that the cost in this shed will exceed tens of millions.
"In addition to recording, this recording studio is also used for rehearsals of the Piano Youth Orchestra."
Hearing Zhou Yan's words, several teachers looked envious.
It’s really incomparable between people.
Their Chinese drama students don't have anywhere to act in plays or stage plays, but students from Yangyin Academy of Music can actually rehearse in a recording studio that cost millions.
The key point is that Yangyin originally had a concert hall, and the conditions were not bad. It can be said that it died of drought and waterlogging.
"You Yangyin students are so lucky." Chang Li sighed with emotion.
Tian Youliang smiled and said, "I am indeed happy. Some time ago, I read the news that Wang Zuxian donated a piano to Yangyin, which cost nearly one million."
Nearly one million... Zhou Yan twitched his lips, not knowing where he read the news about Tian Youliang in the tabloid.
The piano donated by Wang Zuxian to Yangyin was worth 200,000 yuan. Unexpectedly, it was passed on to nearly one million yuan, which was nearly five times the value.
These media reports really dare to make things up.
However, Zhou Yan was too lazy to refute the rumors. He smiled and said, "Yangyin's piano is indeed broken a lot. That's the problem with learning music. The cost of instruments is a bit high."
"Well, the cost of musical instruments is indeed high." Liang Bolong nodded with deep understanding, "Music-related majors in our school also require musical instruments, which is indeed very expensive. More than half of the pianos in our school are second-hand pianos purchased from elsewhere. And it’s not a good piano to begin with.”
Huang Dingyu pushed up his glasses and said, "In fact, students in our school also have a lot of equipment needs, but it is difficult for the school to meet the needs of the students."
Zhou Yan nodded to express his understanding.
The School of Drama does have a lot of needs in terms of equipment, the most important of which is photography equipment, and there are many consumables in photography that require continuous investment.
However, compared to majors such as directing and photography, their acting department has much less demand in this area.
"Our performance department is doing okay, but the most difficult thing is the venue demand," Gao Jinwen said.
"Well, every school has its own difficulties. Our school is the same at Yangyin. The school not only lacks musical instruments, but also lacks piano rooms. In addition to hardware, students also lack opportunities to practice. In order to solve this problem, we work The office has established a school-enterprise cooperation with the school and is currently busy with it.”
"What is school-enterprise cooperation?" Huang Dingyu looked confused. He had never heard of this thing before.
Among the few people, only Tian Youliang's eyes lit up, "I have heard of this school-enterprise cooperation. In order to allow students to adapt to social work faster, some technical schools will choose to cooperate with some corresponding companies and factories, allowing students to enter the factory to study in advance. .”
"Oh, I understand. In this way, students can familiarize themselves with the factory's work processes in advance, and at the same time learn skills from mature workers, and the factory can also save labor costs." Liang Bolong said.
Tian Youliang shook his head, "Actually, saving labor costs is secondary, because students are not efficient at the beginning, and they also need some energy from the factory. The main purpose of the factory is to train students in advance, so that after graduation, students can directly enter the factory and seamlessly connect. Under normal circumstances, school-enterprise cooperation agreements are signed, and students have to work in the factory for a period of time after graduation, which is considered targeted training. ”
"Oh, this mode is quite good." Chang Li nodded.
Gao Jinwen asked Zhou Yan, "Did you also sign an agreement with Yangyin to allow students to work in the studio after graduation?"
Zhou Yan shook his head and said, "No, students who participate in school-enterprise cooperation projects have priority to stay in the studio after graduation, but it is entirely voluntary. If they don't want to stay, they can find another way."
"Then will your studio charge students?" Liang Bolong asked.
"Charge?" Zhou Yan laughed, "Not only is there no charge, we will also give students a stipend, and it's not too small."
Several teachers looked at each other and secretly sighed that such a school-enterprise cooperation project would be great for the school.
It's a pity that their school doesn't have alumni like Zhou Yan. Otherwise, they could have a school-enterprise cooperation project, and their school would have to worry a lot less about cultivating students.
Although China National Theater does not allow first- and second-year students to go out to perform, they still hope that students can be exposed to specific projects as early as possible.
Students need the opportunity to digest the theoretical knowledge they learn in school.
It's just that you can't have your cake and eat it too. If students are allowed to go out for filming in the first and second grades, a large number of students will not have solid basic skills and theoretical knowledge.
In this case, they still chose to keep the students out of the first and second grades and push the practical work to the third and fourth grades.
Chang Li and others believe that this school-enterprise cooperation is a good direction, and maybe it can solve the practical problems of students in the first and second grades.
After all, Gao Jinwen knew Zhou Yan better and could talk better. He asked, "Director Zhou, how do you implement this school-enterprise cooperation? Do students usually come to your studio?"
"Well, the studio will plan the time for students to carry out the project according to their class schedule. When the project is being carried out, they have to come to the studio. If they have other needs, they may go elsewhere."
"How to select students to participate in the project?" Gao Jinwen asked again.
"Students will first register on their own. If the total number of registrations exceeds the planned number, a special selection team will screen the registered students."
"How many people do you plan to have?"
"Ten to fifteen people in one phase."
"How long is one period, one semester?"
"For the time being, it is one semester, but it may not be possible. It may be based on projects. Students who participate in school-enterprise cooperation projects will have the opportunity to be exposed to actual projects. Our studio has established a TV drama department, and there will be many TV drama projects in the future. , so there are many opportunities for students to practice.”
Hearing that the studio had also established a TV drama department, Gao Jinwen raised his eyebrows and finally couldn't help but ask, "Director Zhou, is there any chance for us at China Drama to cooperate with your studio?"
Zhou Yan said happily, "Yes."
Seeing Zhou Yan so cheerful, several people were a little surprised, because they believed that the reason why Zhou Yan cooperated with Yang Yinong on the school-enterprise cooperation project was mainly because of emotion.
After all, their school -enterprise cooperation projects are cheap.
On the other hand, Zhou Yan Studio may lose money.
"Then if we cooperate, can we get the same conditions as Yangyin?"
Zhou Yan smiled and said, "Different schools have different situations, so the conditions must also be different."
Hearing what Zhou Yan said, several people secretly thought that it was indeed the case, but there was still a difference between closeness and distance.
But then Zhou Yan continued, "But the general direction is similar. If we cooperate, I will provide practical opportunities for your school's students, help your school train students, and also provide student project subsidies. As for the amount of subsidies, There must be another set of rules. After all, your students are more in front of the stage. Students like Xia Yu and Tao Hong cannot receive the same subsidies as ordinary students, right?”
"Does the student need to sign a contract with your studio?" Huang Dingyu asked the question he was most concerned about.
What he is most worried about is that when students come to the studio for internship, they need to sign a work agreement with Zhou Yan, which is equivalent to signing a contract of sale in advance. As teachers, they would definitely not do this kind of thing like signing a contract of sale.
Zhou Yan waved his hand and said, "No need, this is up to the students to decide. But there is one thing, if students sign contracts with other companies in advance, they must withdraw from the school-enterprise cooperation project."
Tian Youliang nodded and said, "Well, that makes sense."
There is no need for students to sign contracts together. Zhou Yan is already very benevolent. How could he let students who have signed contracts with other companies participate in school-enterprise cooperation projects?
No one would do this kind of thing of cultivating talents for opponents.
"Then, first and second grade students..."
Before Chang Li finished speaking, Zhou Yan knew what she was going to say. He smiled and said, "I know the rules of your school, so for first and second grade students, the projects they participate in must be screened, and they will not It conflicts with the school’s class time and affects their studies.”
Zhou Yan's answer suddenly solved Chang Li and Liang Bolong's worries.
“There aren’t many projects like this,” Gao Jinwen said.
"There aren't many this year, but there will be more next year." Zhou Yan said with a smile.
"Next year, is it because the TV drama department will be established? You won't be able to shoot a few TV dramas that year, right?"
"It's not a TV series, it's a short film. After the New Year, our studio is planning to set up a short film department, which will guarantee at least one short film a month."
Zhou Yan himself started out by making short films, and he fully understands the significance of short films to filmmakers.
Especially for these students, short films are the best thing to exercise their abilities.
If Zhou Yan really wants to set up multiple school-enterprise studios, it would be extremely cost-effective to set up a short film department.
The short film project is short, but it allows students from various schools to work together.
The only drawback is that short films are not very commercial and it is difficult to make money.
But Zhou Yan doesn't really care about this, because the cost of short films is low. He said that there is at least one short film a month, and twelve films a year. The average short film costs only 1.2 million yuan, even if it costs 100,000 yuan. Far less than what it costs to make a movie.
The point is, among the twelve short films produced a year, there are always some of high quality.
These quality shorts can be sent to film festivals and can expand the studio's library, and if the project is really good, can be expanded into a feature film.
Later, Zhou Yan plans to create an internal short film award to stimulate students' enthusiasm.
When they heard about Zhou Yan's short film project, several teachers were very excited because this project was so suitable for their school.
The short video is short, but it has everything that should be included, making it very suitable for students to exercise.
"This..." Tian Youliang wanted to further communicate with Zhou Yan about school-enterprise cooperation, but he didn't know how to speak.
It's not that he is thin-skinned, it's just that he is just a class teacher and has no authority. This kind of thing has to be decided by the school leaders.
No matter how much he talks now, it doesn't count.
Seeing that Tian Youliang was hesitant to speak, Gao Jinwen knew what he wanted to do, so he said, "Director Zhou, if it is really possible, let's report the situation to the leader when we go back and see if there is any possibility of cooperation."
< br>
Zhou Yan nodded, "Of course it's no problem."
The reason why he mentioned school-enterprise cooperation just now was to lead the topic to this topic, and now his goal has been achieved.
……
After taking a few teachers around the music studio, Zhou Yan took them to the film studio and the newly established TV drama studio.
After visiting, Tian Youliang and others were greatly impressed by the construction of the studio. The scale of the studio was larger than they imagined, and the equipment was better than they imagined.
Chang Li and the others have also visited several studios, but none of them have equipment as good as Zhou Yan's studio.
They have never seen many of the machines in Zhou Yan's studio.
After seeing these devices, they became more determined to cooperate with Zhou Yan.
The key is that Zhou Yan's studio has just started, and most of the original electronics factory buildings are not used.
If all the original buildings in the factory could be used, the scale of the entire studio would be unimaginable.
During this period, Zhou Yan also told them that he was planning to renovate a theater in the factory, which made all the teachers feel itchy in their hearts.
If this theater is really renovated and they establish a cooperative relationship with the studio, will students from their school be able to come to the theater to rehearse and perform in the future?
Problems with students' performances have always troubled them.
……
At six o'clock in the evening, the students finished their visit and all went to the cafeteria.
The current cafeteria in the studio is very large. More than a hundred people can sit in it separately, and it doesn't feel crowded at all. Even if more than a hundred more people come, it will be the same.
The students were together at the moment, and excitedly discussed what they visited today.
Especially for those students in Grade 96, it was the first time for many of them to experience the complete film post-production process so intuitively.
When they visited, the people from the studio even taught them how to do it.
What impressed them most was that in the editing room, the staff directly cut some films for them, and after the editing was completed, they showed them live.
If it's not only half a day and there's not enough time, you can even make it more complete for them, such as cutting in the soundtrack and vocals.
Seeing the students in high spirits, several teachers were also very pleased.
No matter how great the teacher is, no matter how profound and simple the lectures are, they are not as lively and interesting as the practical exercises.
Students participating in more practical activities like this can enhance their interest in the major.
Unfortunately, their school lacks conditions, and there is no way to carry out the students often, and even if it is carried out, the effect is not as good as Zhou Yan's studio.
"Teacher Zhou, thank you very much this time." Chang Li thanked her sincerely.
Zhou Yan smiled and waved, "You're welcome, Teacher Chang. It's a pity that we don't have enough time this time. Otherwise, we can let the students fully experience the filming of the movie."
“There are so many of us, so it’s hard to experience it.”
"It's not a difficult task. Just make up a notebook that takes five to ten minutes. You should be able to figure it out in two or three days."
Hearing Zhou Yanfeng say this calmly, several teachers were secretly stunned. A five to ten minute film would cost a lot of money even if it was fooled.
But thinking about what Zhou Yan said before, it was guaranteed to be a short film every month. It seemed like a few minutes of filming was nothing. (End of chapter)
