Chapter 214 Attack of Shizuka
The next day, Zhou Yan went to school.
The contract between Li Xuejian and Tang Chen has been signed, and now he has officially joined the team. Before the semester is over, Zhou Yan quickly arranges for Li Xuejian to study in the school.
Just in time for Zhou Yan’s class on Thursday morning, he brought Li Xuejian and Wang Xueqi to school.
Originally, Zhou Yan's plan did not arrange for Wang Xueqi to come to the school to study, but Wang Xueqi took the initiative to come and have a look, so Zhou Yan agreed.
Wang Xueqi is different from Li Xuejian. He has been exposed to music before and has a better foundation. If he comes to school to study with Li Xuejian, it can improve Li Xuejian's learning efficiency.
Standing at the door of Yangyin, looking at the school's sign, Wang Xueqi smiled and said, "I never thought, Xuejian, at our age, we can actually be students again."
"Live until you are old and learn."
"Yes, live until you are old and learn."
The smile on Wang Xueqi's face can hardly be put on anymore. When he downloaded the movie, he learned from Li Xuejian that the director asked the protagonist to study at Yangyin for a period of time.
That made him very happy.
Wang Xueqi has loved music since he was a child. He is very good at singing. When he was in elementary school, he was a literary model in the school and often sang on campus radio.
He once thought about applying to the Conservatory of Music, but unfortunately his voice was not as good as before after the voice change period, so he gave up the idea.
Although he can also play several musical instruments, his level is very average. It is also very difficult for him to enter a conservatory of music with instruments.
Therefore, when he heard that there was such an opportunity, he took the initiative to tell Zhou Yan that he wanted to study with Li Xuejian, which could be regarded as fulfilling his childhood dream.
Zhou Yan led them through the gate of Yangyin and said to them as he walked, "In the past two weeks, I have arranged for you to take classes in the school, including composition, conducting, orchestral music and vocal music." . During this period, you are not required to learn any professional knowledge. The main purpose is to familiarize you with how these music majors live their lives.”
“Although they are all music schools, the situation of students in each department. They are all different, and their daily living habits are also very different."
Li Xuejian nodded, "This is indeed very important to us. If we want to play a role well, we must first understand the role. He is a talented composer. Only by knowing more about the composer's daily life can I be more truthful when performing. "
This is also Zhou Yan's purpose. Of course he does not expect Li Xuejian to be around. To what extent can he learn professional knowledge in a few months? What he hopes more is that Li Xuejian can learn more about music majors, so that he can have a basis when shaping the role of Zhou Xuewen.
“Today’s first class is my class, so soon I will have two students who deign to give me two classes.”
Wang Xueqi smiled heartily, waved his hand and said, "Those who have masters come first. In terms of music, you are more than enough to be our teacher."
Zhou Yan looked at his watch, "There are still more than twenty minutes until class starts. While there is still some time, I will take you for a brief tour of the school."
"Okay, thank you."
......
Zhou Yan took Li Xuejian. They focused on the school's cafeteria and piano room. In addition to the classrooms where classes are held, these two places are particularly important to them.
After shopping, Zhou Yan led Li Xuejian and Wang Xueqi to the classroom.
When the three of them arrived in the classroom, the students were already there.
Generally, Zhou Yan’s classes are unlikely to have uneven attendance, and there may even be more people than expected.
There are many legends about him in the school, and many students from other majors want to come and take his class.
As soon as the three of them arrived in the classroom, class monitor Hong Wuyang led the students to stand up and shouted, "Hello, teacher."
"Hello, classmates." Zhou Yan pressed his hands.
Many students noticed that there were two middle-aged men standing next to Zhou Yan.
Some students with sharp eyes immediately recognized Li Xuejian.
"Isn't this Song Dacheng?"
Li Xuejian has two well-known film and television roles, one is jyl, and the other is Song Dacheng in "Desire".
The TV series "Desire" is definitely a phenomenon in China. At that time, the TV series was broadcast on CCTV and it was full of people. It was also Zhou Yan's first year, and people could be heard discussing "Desire" everywhere.
Compared with "Desire", although "jyl" is also very well-known, when looking at Li Xuejian in reality, it is difficult for people to think of jyl at once.
Some people think Wang Xueqi looks familiar, but they just can’t remember where they have seen him.
In fact, Wang Xueqi has also acted in many film and television dramas, such as Chen Kaige's famous "Yellow Earth" and Zhang Yimou's "Codename Jaguar", but many people still don't recognize his face.
The students were surprised to see Li Xuejian.
It is not surprising that Zhou Yan is with an actor. After all, in addition to being a musician, Zhou Yan is also a well-known director.
But Zhou Yan brought Li Xuejian and others to the classroom, which made them confused.
Zhou Yan also saw the students' doubts. He first introduced the two people, "These two are Li Xuejian and Wang Xueqi. They are both very good performing artists. Due to the needs of acting, during this period, they will You will be studying at Yangyin for a while. Let’s welcome you two.”
After hearing Zhou Yan’s explanation, the students all applauded vigorously. It’s so much fun for young people to take classes with actors.
Seeing the excitement of the students, Zhou Yan also smiled. If this happens twenty or thirty years later, Tomson Company has designated to cooperate with a certain TV station to produce a variety show in which celebrities go to school. The programs are called "Let's Go to Class Together", "I'm Going to School", "Enrolled" and the like.
Invite veteran actors like Li Xuejian and Wang Xueqi, add some fresh meat, and then bring in children like Li Haining, put them together, and cook them into a pot of porridge. The messier the better.
Looking back, the movie was not made, and the production cost of the movie had already been earned.
Of course, if you really want to film such a program, it would be difficult to choose Yangyin, and not every veteran actor will cooperate.
Li Xuejian felt the enthusiasm of the students, bent down slightly, and said with a smile, "Although we are older, we are all freshmen here, so I will ask for your guidance in the future. If it affects your daily study, please bear with me.”
Wang Xueqi then said, “It is our honor to come to Yangyin to study, and the two of us will do the same. I cherish this opportunity very much and learn from Teacher Zhou and all my classmates. I hope everyone will not treat us as useless old people, but just treat us like freshmen, so as to urge us to make progress.”
After the two finished speaking, the applause became more enthusiastic.
Zhou Yan saw two seats in the back row and said to Li Xuejian and others, "You two go and take your seats first. Today's class is about to begin."
Wait until Li Xuejian and others took their seats. , Zhou Yan walked to the back of the lecture, "There is nothing else in today's class. It is just to check the homework. Come up and show the harmonies you wrote this week."
Although the students have been mentally prepared for a long time, They still couldn't help crying. Every time they checked their homework, it was the part they least wanted to face.
Teacher Zhou is scolding again!
Wang Xueqi and Li Xuejian were also surprised when they heard the students wailing.
Before coming, they were full of yearning for the classroom atmosphere of the Conservatory of Music. When they came to think about it, Yangyin is the top music conservatory in the country, and composition is the top major of the college. Even the teachers are like Zhou Yan. For top musicians, the classroom atmosphere should be that of mountains and flowing water.
And in their opinion, Zhou Yan's actions and words make people feel like a spring breeze. Such a teacher should be very loved by students.
Therefore, they wondered why the students were still wailing.
But soon, the two of them found the answer.
"What is this writing about? I can't even find an angle to evaluate it, so I'll go back and write it again."
"You're already in second grade, and I don't think you even understand what harmony is."
"Didn't you use this harmony in your sketch last semester? Just change it a little and use it to fool me?"
"Have you ever played what you wrote? The audibility is so bad that you can only use formulas? No, you don’t even know the formulas well.”
After two classes, Li Xuejian and the others were sweating. The whole class handed in a dozen assignments, and they received the highest evaluation. All he said was "okay".
All other homework was thoroughly criticized by Zhou Yan.
But they felt that the students' homework was actually not as bad as Zhou Yan said. There were many melodies played or played, which were quite pleasant.
Although the students were sad about Zhou Yan’s criticism, they were all convinced.
Although Zhou Yan would not tell them what the problem was in detail, he would occasionally change it a little bit, and just by changing it a little bit, the students would know where the problem was.
This teaching method also reminded Li Xuejian and others of a passage in the Analects of Confucius.
If you take one corner and don't turn it back with three, there will be no recovery.
When Zhou Yan teaches students, he only goes to the end of the lesson. He never teaches in too much detail. Sometimes he even fails to point out the specific points and just throws out a bad review and lets the students find their own problems.
At first, Li Xuejian felt that this was too cruel to the students, and that teachers should teach students everything they know.
But when I think about it carefully, I find that Zhou Yan's teaching method makes sense.
Teach students in accordance with their aptitude and make the best use of the situation. Education is not static. There are naturally different teaching methods for different objects.
This is not a primary or secondary school, but the Central Conservatory of Music, a top school. The students who can sit in this classroom are not the only talented players in a thousand.
These students are naturally able to understand the subject. If they cannot understand it, it is because the students themselves do not want to learn. Being able to teach like this also shows that Zhou Yan is quite optimistic about the level of these students.
While Zhou Yan was training students on the stage, Wang Xueqi murmured in a low voice below, "I'm almost fifty, why do I still feel a little nervous listening to Zhou Yan train these students?"
"After all, I have been a student for so many years, and now the memories are flooding back to me."
"The main reason is that Zhou Yan looks so much like our former class teacher. Oh, our class teacher has retired for many years. .”
"You'll be retiring in a few years."
"Don't worry, I'll have no problem acting until I'm seventy, but you, your little body needs more practice."
" I have a natural physique, no matter how hard I train, I can’t compare to you. But for this drama, I have to eat to make myself fatter.”
“Don’t eat until you become a fat man. . ”
“That’s impossible, I’ll lose weight quickly if I eat a little less.”
...
In the next few days, Zhou Yan was at school. On the one hand, he took Li Xuejian and Wang Xueqi to get familiar with the school, and on the other hand, it was also because the school had accumulated some affairs that he needed to deal with.
Zhou Yan reported to principal Liu Lin in advance about asking Li Xuejian and the others to come to school to study. Liu Lin agreed directly without any hesitation.
In the first two days, it was Zhou Yan who took care of Li Xuejian and the others. Later, Zhou Yan specially sent students to take care of them.
A week later, when Zhou Yan was in class again, Li Xuejian and Wang Xueqi did not come to his class because they had been at the command department for the past two days. This is also arranged by Zhou Yan. Among the departments of composition, conducting, orchestral music and vocal music, Li Xuejian and others will stay in the conducting department the longest.
When the filming of the later movie started, the most test was actually Li Xuejian’s commanding gestures, composition, etc., which did not need to be shown on camera.
But the command gesture is different, it must be made in front of the camera.
When the class was in full swing, Zhou Yan had just finished writing a paragraph on the blackboard when he turned around and noticed several male students looking outside the door.
Zhou Yan also looked outside the door and saw no one, so he took a few steps towards the door and then saw Li Biru and Kudo Shizuka standing at the side and behind.
Shizuka Kudo didn't do much disguise, she just wore a small round hat and didn't even wear sunglasses.
However, her face is not well-known in the mainland, so not many people will recognize her. The reason why those students looked here is probably because of her dress.
It is now approaching late autumn, and the weather in Yanjing is a bit cool. Most people are wearing jackets, but Kudo Shizuka only wears a gray short skirt and a blue and black striped long-sleeved thin sweater.
Dressed like this, you stand out in the crowd.
Seeing Zhou Yan, Kudo Shizuka waved to him happily, but did not speak. At least she knew not to disturb Zhou Yan's class.
Zhou Yan rolled his eyes and returned to the podium to continue teaching the students.
With five minutes left before the end of get out of class, Zhou Yan finished today’s lesson and then threw the chalk into the chalk box. “That’s it for today’s lesson. You can be free for the rest of the time. During the discussion, the monitor urged them to do their homework well and not to mess up the homework every time. I felt like my eyes would be polluted if I looked at it more. "
Then he walked out of the classroom.
Kudo Shizuka and Li Biru were still waiting outside the door. Seeing Zhou Yan, Li Biru immediately explained, "Senior brother, Shizuka must ask me to bring her here, and I can't help it..."
"Just you two?"
"Yeah."
Zhou Yan curled his lips and threatened Li Biru, "If you take her out alone, if something happens, such as meeting a bad guy or if she gets lost, it may turn into a diplomatic incident. "
"Senior brother, don't scare me, what could happen?" Li Biru shrank her neck.
Kudo Shizuka said with a smile: "No, blame Biru. I heard that you had classes, so I asked her to bring me here. I haven't come to your school to visit."< br>
Zhou Yan turned to look at Kudo Shizuka, "If you really want to visit, you can tell me in advance, and then I will have someone come to receive you."
Kudo Shizuka pouted, "That's not fun."
"Biru, you will take care of it later..."
Before Zhou Yan finished speaking, Li Biru said quickly, "Senior brother, I still have something to do, I’ll leave it to you, Jingxiang.”
After that, Li Biru walked away as if running away.
After Li Biru left, Zhou Yan looked at his watch. It was more than two minutes before the bell rang. He said to Kudo Shizuka, "Let's go too. get out of class will be over soon, and there will be a lot of people."
Kudo Shizuka nodded and followed Zhou Yan, "Where are we going?"
"I'll take you back to the studio."
Kudo Shizuka stopped and shook his head. Like a rattle, "No, no, I just came here and I can't go back."
"Then what do you want to do?"
"Take me for a walk in school."
"No, I don't have time. I have to go home and clean today."
Shizuka Kudo smiled, "Then I'll go with you."
"Okay." Zhou Yan said simply nod.
Seeing Zhou Yan nod, Kudo Shizuka was quite happy. She wanted to see what Zhou Yan’s parents were like. Li Biru and the others said that it was a courtyard house with a piano room in it. All the members of the band were in that piano room before. room for rehearsal.
But Zhou Yan did not take Shizuka Kudo to the courtyard, but to his and Jia Guoping’s dormitory.
Although Jia Guoping has gone abroad, the school has not made other arrangements for the dormitory. Now it is like this dormitory belongs to Zhou Yan alone.
Of course Zhou Yan will not live here, he only comes here occasionally to visit and clean up.
Actually, Zhou Yan had no plans to clean today. He planned to have the dust-proof cloth washed and dried in two days when the weather got better.
The reason why he wanted to take Shizuka Kudo there today was because he didn’t want to take Shizuka Kudo running around the school and attract everyone’s attention.
Even if no one recognizes Kudo Shizuka, it is not a good thing for him to wander around the school with a girl wearing such eye-catching clothes.
I happened to go to clean up the dormitory and asked Shizuka Kudo to sit in the dormitory for a while before sending her back to the studio.
On the way to the dormitory, Zhou Yan asked Shizuka Kudo, "Didn't you record today?"
"I recorded it in the morning. After a while, I felt bad, so I got ready and took a rest before recording again. "
Zhou Yan nodded. Sure enough, no matter how good your performance is, there will be times when you are tired. Like Shizuka Kudo, who records from morning to night every day and then practices extra at night, most singers will be unable to stand it long ago.
“Come here, does Nangong know?”
"I just said it outside on a public phone."
"You are cutting first and then telling the story."
Kudo Shizuka looked confused, she didn't understand the word "cut first and then tell the story." It's normal to communicate with her now She can basically understand the spoken language, and even if she doesn't fully understand it, she can still guess it roughly. However, once idioms are used, she will be dumbfounded.
Zhou Yan did not explain any more, and walked quickly towards the dormitory with Kudo Shizuka.
When she arrived at the dormitory, Kudo Shizuka was a little disappointed. She thought Zhou Yan would take her to the courtyard, but she didn't expect it to be such a place.
"Is this your home?"
The sofa, TV and even the table in the room were all covered with cloth, and there was a layer of dust on the cloth. It was obvious that no one lived in this house at all.
“This is the accommodation provided by the school, and it can also be regarded as my home. I just rarely live here.”
Zhou Yan went to open the window first, and then gently moved the sofa He opened a piece of cloth on the bed and said to Shizuka Kudo, "Sit down for a while while I clean."
"Do you need my help?"
Zhou Yan looked at Kudo Shizuka up and down, smiled and shook his head, "I don't want it anymore."
"Okay." Kudo Shizuka pouted and sat on the sofa honestly.
Although Zhou Yan decided to come to clean on the spur of the moment, now that he was here, he rolled up his sleeves and started doing it. He first swept the floor, then poured some water and found a rag to wipe the table.
Halfway through, Kudo Shizuka couldn't help but stand up. She saw that the water Zhou Yan fetched was dirty, so she took the initiative to ask Ying to change Zhou Yan's basin of clean water.
"Don't..."
Zhou Yan was about to tell her not to move, but the girl quickly picked up the basin and walked towards the bathroom.
Originally Zhou Yan was thinking about asking Shizuka Kudo to help fetch a basin of water, but suddenly he thought of something and ran towards the bathroom, shouting, "Don't twist the left..."
As soon as Zuo Zi came out, Zhou Yan heard a scream coming from the bathroom.
“Ah——”
Hearing this scream, Zhou Yan sighed, he knew something was going to happen.
Zhou Yan hurriedly ran in and saw that the faucet on the left was spraying water. It was as if it was raining in the entire bathroom. Shizuka Kudo huddled in the corner with her head in her hands, and she was already soaked.
He quickly held the water in his hand and rushed over to turn off the faucet.
This faucet has always been broken. As soon as it is turned on, water spurts out randomly. When they first came here, he and Jia Guoping also suffered a loss.
Later, I kept saying it was not repaired, because there are two faucets, and the other one is good and does not affect daily use.
After the faucet was turned off, Zhou Yan glanced at Shizuka Kudo, who was soaked in the water. He sighed slightly and thought to himself that this girl is so stupid and cute. She doesn't know how to run out but shrink into the corner.
After pulling Shizuka Kudo out of the bathroom, Zhou Yan found a towel from the closet for her to wipe away the water.
She wiped it and said with a grimace, "My hair."
Today her hair was made very fluffy and she had air bangs. After doing this, her hairstyle was completely gone.
"I'm still worried about my hair style. Most of your clothes are wet. If you keep wearing wet clothes in this weather, it's easy to catch a cold. Otherwise, I'll call Nangong and ask her to send you clothes."
Especially this sweater of hers. Although it is thin, it is very absorbent. It is very uncomfortable to wear when it gets wet.
"No, it's so embarrassing, and it will take time for her to come."
"Then..."
There are women's clothes in the house, but they all belong to Zhang Xinning, so it's not easy for him to go. After turning over and pondering for a moment, he could only go to his closet to find a set of clothes.
There are some clothes left in the closet, but they are old clothes from before and no longer worn.
What he was looking for was a pair of black trousers and a white shirt, "Hey, you can just wear it."
"So ugly."
Shizuka Kudo said in disgust, but still took the clothes into the room, "Don't look at it."
"Don't worry."
After a while, the door opened and Kudo Shizuka came out.
She was wearing the shirt Zhou Yan found for her, but instead of wearing trousers underneath, she was wearing a pair of large beach shorts.
