77 Regains Talent

  77. Regain Talent

  (Continue to ask for collection and recommendation!)

  The living conditions of the directing department in the film academy are the best, compared with other departments with four people in one room or even eight people in one room, the directing department with two people in one room is obviously more spacious.

  Moreover, the facilities in the dormitory building where the director lives are also the best on campus, with high-speed broadband and independent toilets, which is the object of envy and jealousy among all students living on campus.

  Ye Sumang held the key, on which the room number and floor were clearly written on the tag, walked in the clean and quiet corridor, and soon found her own room.

  "Huh? So you're my roommate?" Opening the door, Ye Sumang was taken aback because the boy sitting in the chair reading a book in front of him was actually Bai Ge, the boy with the white eyes he had seen that day when he went to class.

  "Leaf... leaf... leaf..."

  "Ye Su Meng!" Ye Su Meng smiled and took over his words, then curiously looked around the entire dormitory.

  It's clear that this boy named Bai Ge loves cleanliness. Although he lives alone in the dormitory, every item is neatly arranged and the floor is spotless. Ye Su Mang carefully glanced at the trash can and found it was half empty, apparently the boy often cleans up.

  The bed belonging to Ye Sumang was also clean and tidy, without any clutter or mess, showing that this boy was a very polite and disciplined person.

  Bai Ge stood there like a small employee being inspected by his superior, standing obediently to one side and constantly stealing glances at Ye Su Mang.

  "Heh heh, what are you standing there for?" Ye Sumang turned her head and immediately noticed Bai Ge's abnormality at this time, and smiled as she said.

  "No...no, how did you come to the dormitory? I'll get you a glass of water." As she spoke, Bai Ge didn't care whether Ye Su Mang accepted or not, and hurriedly ran to the water dispenser to fetch a cup of water.

  Ye Sumang then sat in the position where Bai Ge was just now, and found that the book he was looking at was a book about shooting techniques written by Wu Yusan, which is also one of the textbooks Ye Sumang has been studying recently.

  "Where did you see it?" Taking the water handed over by Bai Ge, Ye Su Mang took a light sip, then pointed to the book and asked.

  "He... his autobiography, and the process of developing 'violent aesthetics'." Bai Ge replied somewhat nervously after hearing Ye Su Meng's words.

  "Uh..." Ye Sumang hesitated for a moment, then closed the book and suddenly asked: "What is the main idea of violent aesthetics?"

  "The main idea is to convert violence into an unconventional force, ignoring the normal bloodiness, focusing on the details and scene handling of violence, presenting characteristics that oppose authority, oppose classics, oppose subjective creation consciousness, and oppose elitism..."

  Bai Ge said more and more fluently, and surprisingly, he didn't stutter at all like before. Ye Su Mang also nodded repeatedly, it seemed that this roommate had indeed put a lot of thought into this aspect.

  "That's quite good." Not until Bai Ge finished speaking did Ye Su Mang summarize with a smile.

  "Thank... thank you!" Upon hearing Ye Su Mang's final comment, Bai Ge became excited and stuttered again. At this moment, he felt that the boy sitting in front of him was not his classmate at all, but a lecturer standing on the podium, every move filled with dignity.

  Ye Sumang did not leave Bai Ge's seat because he found a folder named 'Photography' on Bai Ge's computer desktop.

  "Can I open this and take a look?" Ye Sumang asked Bai Ge with some curiosity.

  "Of course."

  With Bai Ge's consent, Ye Su Meng opened the folder and found that there were not many works inside, only two or three. He casually opened a video segment, which was usually around ten minutes long, and Ye Su Meng quickly finished watching it.

  "Are these all taken by you?" Ye Sumang pointed at the paused screen.

  Although this video is very short, the story is complete. If it were to be expanded upon, it could easily become a small film. Moreover, what moved Ye Sumang's heart was that the filming technique used in this short clip was exactly the 'violent aesthetics' he had been studying recently. The use of slow motion and close-up shots in this video has already reached a certain level of maturity.

  "Yes." Bai Ge nodded and acknowledged.

  "What did you take it with?"

  "I... I used the school's camera to take... take pictures of this... these are this year's final exam questions..."

  "Hmm... are you interested in coming to my company, joining my current crew as a photographer?" Ye Su Meng had asked all the questions he needed to ask and was basically certain that this short film was indeed shot by Bai Ge. He immediately extended an invitation to the bespectacled young man.

  Ye Su Mang also did this for future considerations.

  Ning Hao's photography skills have matured, and the two have been working together for a long time. Ye Su Meng understands that Ning Hao has many ideas in his mind, and if he only works as a photographer, it would be a waste of talent. Ye Su Meng plans to recruit Bai Ge into the company and join the crew of "The Thieves", so that she can follow Ning Hao and learn from him for a while. Once Bai Ge is able to take on more responsibility, Ye Su Meng will let Ning Hao go and become a director himself, allowing him to showcase his abilities.

  "I...I..." Bai Ge had not expected Ye Su Meng to invite him to join the crew at this time, and his desire for a real camera made him so excited that he couldn't speak for a while, and just kept nodding.

  Ye Sumang saw Bai Ge's expression and knew he had already agreed, indicating that he understood, and also patted Bai Ge on the shoulder.

  "Get some rest early, and tomorrow morning we'll head to the film set together." After finishing speaking, Ye Su Mang lay down on her own bed and quickly fell asleep.

  The next day, Ye Sumang got up early and saw that Bai Ge was still snoring softly on the upper bunk. He didn't wake him up, but instead went alone to the garden downstairs, practiced his fist technique twice, ran a lap around the cafeteria, bought some buns and rice porridge, and returned to the dormitory.

  "Hey, don't sleep anymore, it's time to wake up." Ye Sumang returned to the dormitory and found that Bai Ge was still sleeping. After checking the time, which was almost eight o'clock, she went forward to wake him up.

  "Ah, hug...hug...sorry!" The first thing Bai Ge saw when he opened his eyes was Ye Su Mang, who was already dressed and ready, as well as the breakfast on the table.

  He didn't sleep as well as Ye Sumang last night, Ye Sumang's invitation made Bai Ge extremely excited, and he spent almost the whole night fantasizing about today's crew life, so he slept in late and couldn't get out of bed.

  After having breakfast, Ye Sumang took Bai Ge to the outskirts of Beijing by car. When they arrived at the scene, the crew had basically gathered.

  "This is Bai Ge, from today on, he will join our crew as the photography assistant of Ning Huang, everyone welcome." Ye Su Meng introduced to the whole crew while pulling along a somewhat shy Bai Ge.

  "Welcome~~~~!" Ning Hao was the first to stand up. He had already been informed of this matter by Ye Su Mang's phone call that morning.

  Seeing Ning Hao has already taken the lead in expressing his stance, other crew members also applauded and welcomed him.

  With the addition of Bai Ge, Ning Hao's burden was also greatly reduced. Bai Ge is indeed a talent from the directing department of Kyoto Film Academy, and despite being slender, he handled the camera with stability. On the day of filming, he had already been praised by everyone more than once, and his small face turned bright red with excitement.

  In the evening, Ye Sumang, who was in a good mood, specially invited all the crew members to dinner to celebrate Bai Ge's joining. After the dinner party ended, Ye Sumang had just walked to the door of his home when he received a phone call. The news brought by the other party made his mood suddenly drop to the bottom.
