Chapter 5 gives you a little literary shock
Zhou Yan didn’t know what the two were thinking at this time. He continued, “When it comes to auditory narrative, we naturally have to mention auditory space, and in Before discussing the auditory space, we must first talk about listening. Listening and observation are opposites. The latter points to vision, and the former points to hearing, indicating the ability of people to mobilize their hearing to capture sounds, figure out and respond. Therefore, auditory space is. It is constructed by narrating the occurrence of sounds and a series of activities performed by the characters after hearing the sounds..."
Such a professional passage not only surprised Su Tong, an expert, but also laymen Zhao Jiping was also extremely shocked.
Zhao Jiping had never heard the word "listen" before, but after Zhou Yan explained it, he immediately understood it. If Zhou Yan was a student of the Chinese Department, Zhao Jiping would not be too surprised. At best, he would feel This student's expression ability is pretty good.
But Zhou Yan is a student of the Composition Department of Yangyin University. Why is he so familiar with literary theory? This kind of thing is not something you can understand just by reading. Zhao Jiping himself also likes to read novels, but he doesn't understand any of this literary theory knowledge.
Su Tong graduated from the Chinese Department of Yan Normal University. He has analyzed the works of many people, but he has never analyzed his own work. After the publication of "Wives and Concubines", some people did comment on this novel, but mentioned This was the first time Su Tong saw him in the auditory space, so he was quite curious.
"Zhou Yan, please continue."
Zhou Yan nodded and continued: "In the novel, the garden is a very typical auditory space. The room where Songlian lives and the garden There was only a wall, so she could listen to all the sounds in the garden. The first time she listened to the garden, Songlian was delighted and confused. This time, what she heard was the chirping of cicadas on the wisteria branches. The second time she listened... …”
As for the plot in the novel, Zhou Yan is familiar with it and knows it at his fingertips.
Even Su Tong, the original author, had to hold his forehead and think about some of the things Zhou Yan mentioned for a long time before he was sure that he had indeed written them in the novel.
At this time, the conversation completely entered Zhou Yan's rhythm.
Finally entering his home court, Zhou Yan became more and more enthusiastic as he talked. After talking about the auditory space, he began to analyze some details, "Let's talk about the action of knocking again. Knocking is inevitably accompanied by the production of sound. Foucault Treating space as a carrier of power, confinement has become a hodgepodge of various factors that abuse power. The power relationship between characters is different, and the listener's reaction to the knock on the door is naturally different..."
When he heard this, Su Tong had already confirmed Zhou Yan's professionalism. If Zhao Jiping hadn't been here, he would have doubted Zhou Yan's identity as a Yangyin student. Even if Zhou Yan told Su Tong now that he was not a student of Yangyin but a student of the Chinese Department of Yan Normal University, Su Tong would not doubt it.
Zhao Jiping was full of doubts. He didn't understand why Zhou Yan was so slow in music but so amazing in literature.
He couldn't understand the reason, but there were some changes in his mind about the choice of assistant composer. Before, he would choose Liang Xiwen without hesitation, but now he gradually favored Zhou Yan.
In fact, this job does not require high musical accomplishment, but sensitivity to details. After all, Zhao Jiping still does the final soundtrack work himself. Most of the assistants only do some on-site recording work, but Zhou Yan’s observation of details is already there. An amazing point.
Then again, Zhou Yan also studied at Yangyin for two and a half years, so how could his basic functions be so bad? My poor performance before was probably due to nervousness, or maybe it was because I hadn’t been exposed to music for a while and was a bit unfamiliar.
Okay, even if Zhou Yan's musical foundation is really bad, Zhao Jiping still wants to keep Zhou Yan. At worst, he will find a helper for Zhou Yan who has a good musical foundation later.
After pondering for a moment, Zhao Jiping said to Su Tong with a smile, "Teacher Su Tong, let me introduce you formally. Director Shi Wanchun of Zhou Yanyang Music recommended him to be my soundtrack assistant. In the future, "Wives and Concubines" He coordinated the soundtrack work of "Group" on the spot."
Su Tong showed a surprised expression, "I see, no wonder Zhou Yan is so knowledgeable about the auditory space in the novel. Now I am more and more interested in the soundtrack of the movie. The more confident I become, with Zhou Yan assisting Mr. Zhao, the soundtrack for this movie is very exciting." Zhao Jiping smiled and looked at Zhou Yan again, "Zhou Yan, if you have something to do today, go back first. I will go to the crew for the specific matters. Talk to you later.”
Zhou Yan blinked. He knew that Zhao Jiping probably had something to talk to Su Tong about, so these words were a farewell, but they also revealed a meaning, that is, he was definitely hired as a soundtrack assistant.
Although he wanted to talk to Zhao Jiping about this matter again, Zhou Yan also knew that the occasion was not right, so he smiled and nodded, "Okay, then I will wait for your letter. Teacher Su Tong, you are here with Teacher Zhao "Xu, I have something to do at school, so I'll excuse you for now."
Su Tong responded with a smile, "It's okay, go ahead and do it. Since you are the soundtrack assistant for "Wives and Concubines", you will definitely be there in the future. Let’s talk next time if we have a chance to meet.”
After coming out of Zhao Jiping’s yard, Zhou Yan walked slowly in the alley. He didn’t expect that in a twist of events, he would finally get the soundtrack with his solid literary theory skills. Assistant's job.
It's like applying for a job as a chef in a hotel. The boss doesn't like the food you cook, but you get hired because you can sing.
Although Zhou Yan was worried that he was not competent at first, it seems that it is not a big problem now. This job is not as difficult as he imagined.
It would be nice to be able to work on a movie set, but if he really wanted to stay in school, he didn't know where to go. I just don’t know how much money he can get from the job of a music assistant. He is indeed having a good time at school, but there will always be money to spend in the future.
And Zhou Yan has always been insecure. There is no money in this pocket, and his sense of security has dropped by half.
It was quite interesting for Zhou Yan to meet Su Tong today. This can be regarded as a benefit of time travel. He is a middle school teacher, barely a small writer, and has published "masterpieces" in many second-rate literary magazines. The most glorious moment in his life was when he published a poem in the "Poetry Journal", but later the "Poetry Journal" declined and was not as good as before.
Wandering out of the alley, Zhou Yan first smelled the strong aroma of mutton soup, and then heard a growl of protest from his stomach. He came early in the morning and only ate a tea egg pad leftover from last night. one time.
I glanced at the place where the mutton soup floated from a distance. It was a small mutton soup restaurant. During the meal, the restaurant was already full, and people were sitting in front of the restaurant. A customer drinking mutton soup from a large bowl.
Seeing such a scene, it goes without saying that this mutton soup must be delicious.
Unfortunately, although the mutton soup is delicious, Zhou Yan is not only empty in his stomach, but also in his pocket, so he can only swallow and walk towards the bus stop. Now that he is back to school, he can catch lunch in the cafeteria. .
On the way to the bus station, Zhou Yan was still thinking that next time he comes, he must have some mutton soup.
