The Salted Fish Invading the Entertainment Circle

Chapter 154 A Metaphor Without Ambition

The next day, Yang Zhu was going to leave after eating breakfast, but Lan Yan tried hard to keep him:
"Teacher Yang, can you stay for another day?"

Yang Zhu raised his eyebrows: "Haven't you already found your status?"

Lan Yan had a bitter face: "Mr. Yang, I basically feel that I have found it, but I'm still not sure about the last scene of the script, which is the most important scene!"

"How about...I'll discuss it with Director Zhang and see if he can reschedule the last scene to today,"

"With Mr. Yang present, I feel more at ease. When the time comes, if I don't act right, you give me a look after the scene, and I will lick my face and beg Director Zhang to let me do another shot."

"Can you see it?"

Yang Zhu frowned: "But you disrupted Director Zhang's shooting plan, can he agree?"

There was a ghostly expression on Lan Yan's face: "There shouldn't be any problem. During this period of time, I discovered that Director Zhang is actually a good talker. Usually, he will agree to my requests!"

The corners of Yang Zhu's eyes twitched, Zhang Lin, this bastard, does he have the consciousness to be a director? ?

Immediately, he said without comment: "You should discuss it with Director Zhang first."

Looking at Lan Yan who took out the phone and dialed it, Yang Zhu thought, if it was his own camera, which actor would dare to make such an unreasonable request so arrogantly, and he would not know how he died.

After a while, Lan Yan hung up the phone and said happily: "Let me just say it, Director Zhang is very talkative, he agreed to my request!"

Yang Zhu's face turned dark, and he nodded: "Sure, you go and get ready, I'll stay for another half a day, and I'll leave after watching your performance."

But I thought in my heart, it seems that I need to give this bastard Zhang Lin a lesson in ideological work, do you really think you are the assistant director?Do you know what it means to be ridden by someone? ?

………………

The classroom is already filled with all kinds of "parents",
Hmm... a small half of them are crew members, and even Yang Zhu has been dragged out at the moment.

"All departments prepare!"

"Scene 167 of "The First Line of Life", scene 1, ACTION!"

Following Zhang Lin's order, all the "parents" showed their expressions according to the previous explanation;
Some were expressionless, some were a little impatient, and some looked like they were watching the show...

Lan Yan walked slowly to the podium, her face was slightly pale, her eyes were full of exhaustion, and most of her divine light had disappeared;
With a mechanical movement, she took out a piece of paper from her pocket, slowly opened it, put it on the podium, and wiped it vigorously with her right hand, as if to erase the words on it.

After a few seconds of silence, Lan Yan swept across the parents with different expressions, picked up the piece of paper, and read in a hollow tone:

"Dear school leaders, parents, hello."

"I'm Lan Yan, the head teacher of Class [-], Grade [-], Jilang Primary School;"

"I am extremely sorry for what happened to Zhao Xiuzhen in my class three days ago;"

"I shouldn't have..."

After reading this, Lan Yan's voice suddenly stopped, and she looked up at a woman under the stands whose face was full of pride and contempt, the fatigue in her eyes gradually dissipated, and turned into an indescribable ridicule:
"I shouldn't relax the supervision of Zhao Xiuzhen's ideological education,"

"I shouldn't relax my verbal whipping against classmate Zhao Xiuzhen because of my scruples about her gender;"

"And I shouldn't just wishful thinking that just because the children are still young, they won't be infected with some bad habits in society!"

"Here, I make a profound review of the school leaders and parents,"

"And decided to obey the school's arrangement and resign as a teacher!"

There was an uproar in the audience, the parents were whispering to each other, and the principal and several teachers sitting behind had complicated and ugly expressions.

The woman just now changed color suddenly, stood up abruptly, pointed at the blue smoke, and shouted sharply:
"You mean my child lied, and we all wronged you!?"

After finishing speaking, she turned around and said to the others: "Our family, Zhenzhen, is only 9 years old this year! Such a young child, and a girl, how could she lie!?"

Everyone had expressions of apprehension on their faces.

Lan Yan smiled on her face as if she was relieved, but there was a little sadness in her eyes:

"Who told you that young girls can't lie?"

"It has been shown for a long time that children lie after the age of 4,"

"And ... the frequency of children's lying has linearly increased and decreased with age as parental concern has declined."

The woman's expression was a little distorted:

"You mean to blame our parents?"

"As a teacher, you not only don't want to educate your children well, but instead try to find some reasons to shirk your responsibility!"

"We pay money to send our children to school, and we ask you to help us educate our children!"

"No matter how bad it is, we must ensure that the children have a happy childhood;"

"But you are lucky. Usually there are a lot of homework and tasks assigned, and the children do their homework at night and cry;"

"And now, something happened to slander our children for lying;"

"She's just a child, she's still a girl, if you pour this basin of sewage on her, what will you tell her to do in the future!?"

"After leaving the society, how do you let her find a job!?"

When Lan Yan heard this, there was a half-smile expression on his face: "Shirk responsibility? Education?"

After a while, she continued:

"First of all, what I want to say is that I am not shirking responsibility; the competition in this society is becoming more and more cruel, if parents really think about their children,"

"Then... from the moment they start to speak, let them take corresponding responsibilities for their own words and deeds, instead of blindly pampering them with the excuse of their young age."

"Only when they know the scale of rewards and punishments for them in this world from an early age, will they truly form a sound and resilient personality before stepping into society!"

"All scale-free greenhouse environments do them no good!"

"Take Zhao Xiuzhen's incident as an example. If she can face it bravely afterwards and survive it, I believe that the benefits to her life will be far greater than the carefree ten years of student life!"

After finishing speaking, there was a trace of disdain in Lan Yan's eyes, and she glanced at the parents under the stage, with a light tone:

"As for being educated..."

"I understand the psychology of parents at the moment,"

"It's nothing more than a feeling that my children are definitely not made to be scientists and scholars. Instead of devoting energy to those boring basic courses and becoming a 996 wage earner after graduating from college; it is better to dig out the children's specialties in other aspects. , I might be able to become a big-money star, singer, or painter in the future..."

Looking at some parents who were slightly embarrassed on their faces, Lan Yan showed a trace of pity in his eyes:

"I was born in a family of intellectuals, my mother is an expert in social economics, and my father often provides strategic consulting services to major companies;"

"So, under the influence of my ears and eyes, I can tell parents responsibly,"

"Many of your views are very one-sided; many of your ideas are very superficial!"

"The reason is that your views on children's education are too utilitarian,"

"Of course, that's not a bad thing,"

"But the bad thing is that you don't know anything about the nature of the world's economic operation; you also don't know what kind of person your children want to be."

"As long as there are one or two of you who can understand the truth, you won't be so verbal and critical of me as the head teacher!"

Speaking of this, Lan Yan's face showed a strong sarcasm, and his eyes became sharper.

Brushing, Lan Yan picked up the chalk and wrote a few large characters on the blackboard:
"[Coase Theorem], the theory that is closest to the essence of the world's economic operation, have you heard of it?"

The parents in the audience looked at each other, then shook their heads, and the woman also sat down, her eyes wandering a little;

Lan Yan smiled, as if standing in a university lecture hall, lightly dropped the chalk into the box, and walked two steps leisurely:

"To put it simply, when the transaction cost in this society is 0, no matter who grants the property right at the beginning, the property right will eventually flow to the person who can give full play to its value, realizing the Pareto optimal allocation of resources. !"

"That is to say, the resource inclination in this world is dynamic and chaotic, and there is an obvious siphon phenomenon!"

Looking at the bewildered parents, Lan Yan twitched the corners of her mouth:
"There are many other macro theories involved in it, so I won't expand on it. I will use things that you can usually come into contact with as examples;"

"I know that some of you are engaged in foreign export trade, some are engaged in e-commerce, some open small stalls, and some work in companies;"

"Do you do foreign export trade, will you find that even if your manufacturer's price is much cheaper than yours, foreign buyers will still cooperate with your trading company, and rarely bypass you to sign orders with the manufacturer ?”

"That's because under the influence of [Coase Theorem], you are the optimal choice for buyers considering the comprehensive time cost, public relations cost, labor cost, opportunity risk cost, etc.!"

"As an e-commerce player, have you found that even if those small platforms offer more incentives and the traffic distribution ratio is tilted towards you, the medium and long-term benefits they bring to you are still not as good as those mature and reputable large platforms? "

"That's because under the [Coase Theorem], consumers consider comprehensively based on factors such as safety, consumption inertia, information horizontal acquisition rate, risk of return and replacement, and those big platforms make their optimal choices,"

"Even if these big platforms don't give you any incentives and traffic tilts, you can still get good mid-term long-term benefits on this platform that consumers choose best!"

"Those who work in large companies, why do they often find that after working in the company for several years, they find that their wages are sometimes not as good as those newly recruited employees, and even when they have the opportunity, except for airborne, those new employees It is often easier to get promoted than you?"

"That's because for BOSS, considering the cost of brain drain, replacement cost, potential discovery cost, etc., those new employees are their optimal choice!"

"To put it bluntly, you are dispensable in the company. What you can do, others can do as well, or even do better;"

"But let you go up, the BOSS can't see that you have the value of going up, and the invisible risk of promotion is even greater than the risk of firing you. Why don't people choose a possible risk and opportunity? Newcomer?"

"And this is the problem that most people, including your children, have encountered or are about to encounter!"

"After all, judging from the current social data, only 100-1 out of every 3 people have the potential and ability to become a true elite."

Looking at the thoughtful but unclear parents in the stands, Lan Yan once again showed a trace of pity in his eyes, and continued:
"Actually, in the final analysis, it is because you, the backbone of the current society, lack the core quality of life;"

"Just like the barrel theory that everyone knows, it is often the shortest plank that determines your value;"

"And the reason why I assign so much homework to your children and assign such tasks, including forcing them to do things that they were very unwilling to do at first;"

"In essence, it is to temper their core survival qualities!"

"I assign so many homework, and I often make ironic comments on the mistakes, just to exercise their ability to resist pressure;"

"Forcing them to be small teachers for 10 minutes is to exercise their in-depth learning ability, logical ability and communication ability;"

"Forcing them to run extremely fast every day is to exercise their perseverance and resilience;"

"And these abilities are the real foundation for them to stand in the society after entering the society,"

"No matter what their opportunities are in the future, if they possess and solidify these abilities, their shortcomings in skills can grow slowly, and continuously increase the upper and lower limits of their value, thus creating infinite possibilities!"

"As I said just now, the allocation of resources in this society will eventually flow to the hands of those who can maximize their value;"

"Now that this class is gradually solidifying, in this era that is very likely to have no barbaric growth of opportunities;"

"As a teacher, the only thing I can do is to give students the core qualities necessary to become elites before the ascending channel is completely locked, so that they are more likely to become the 1%-3% of the crowd One of them!"

After finishing speaking, Lan Yan showed sadness in his eyes:

"Many teachers in Huaxia are trying their best to raise the transaction cost of this society through education,"

"And you...you wantonly laughing and breaking it to 0;"

Having said this, Lan Yan's voice was a little hoarse:

"My father often said, [In life, we should be lucky to meet one or two people, or be kind-eyed elders, or be wind and thunder stern teachers]."

"I don't know. After a few years, there will be only compassionate people in the world but no strict teachers. It's luck or misfortune..."

After finishing speaking, Lan Yan glanced at the parents in the audience, stopped talking, and walked straight out of the classroom, but the expression on her face could no longer be stretched, and tears burst out of her eyes...

"CUT!"

Zhang Lin looked excited, and wanted to shout, but suddenly remembered the message that Boss Yang sent him last night, and quickly stroked his chin, pretending to be contemplative,

After a long while, he said to Lan Yan, who was a little nervous: "This paragraph is a little bit meaningless, you can think about it yourself, and I will come back later!"

Lan Yan suddenly trembled a little, she felt that the acting just now was quite good, why is the always "gentle" Director Zhang not satisfied, and he didn't tell himself what's wrong?
Stealthily glanced at Yang Zhu who was not far away, only to see that he just nodded slightly, but did not make any movements, his heart was a little more stable,
Judging from Teacher Yang's reaction, there was basically nothing wrong with my performance, but it was not amazing enough. I was a little sorry for the finale scene, so what went wrong?
Tone?Speech rate?eyes?Small body movements?Rhythm?
Lan Yan searched hard.

Zhang Lin looked at Lan Yan with a tense face, as well as the staff and actors who looked a little surprised beside them. It was clearly written on their faces: "As expected, it is Director Zhang. I am not satisfied with such a wonderful episode. I really want to ask for it." It's high!"

Not without complacency, Boss Yang's method is really good, such an inscrutable act, will definitely make those actors who don't obey the discipline hold their breath!

Yang Zhu looked at Zhang Lin's expression, he was a little funny, I hope you will continue to work hard, and finally become Zhang Sunglasses, who is popular in the entertainment industry!
………………

After tossing about five or six, this one is finally passed;

Yang Zhu didn't delay, chatted with Lan Yan for a while, and drove away;
In the car, Liu Feifei carefully tore off the hood, blew the cold wind hard, and then asked:
"Master, why did you arrange for Sister Lan to expose that student's lying in front of so many parents in the scene just now?"

"In this case, those audiences will definitely dislike this character and think that she is ignorant."

Yang Zhu smiled: "Of course I know;"

"However, the biggest advantage of filming this way is that it is easy to cause controversy, and it is also convenient to increase the popularity of this movie later."

"And, all things considered, I really don't think there's anything wrong with that approach,"

"Don't forget, this is elementary school, and we are dealing with elementary school students who have not yet fully formed their world outlook and values,"

"This kind of behavior is not advisable if it is aimed at those middle school students with incomplete worldviews but deformed vanity;"

"But then again, the middle school students in the news can't stand the shock and stimulation, and they do all kinds of extreme behaviors. The important reason is that they didn't develop the corresponding antibodies when they were young?"

The little fairy hesitated for a moment, feeling that her master's thoughts were still a bit extreme, but thinking that the master must have his own considerations, she stopped talking;
After a while, the little fairy raised another question of her own:
"Master, I don't understand. This movie is obviously about education. Why did you add such a large section about social economics at the end?"

"Won't this make the audience feel awkward?"

Yang Zhu smiled. Liu Feifei was not the first to ask this question. Zhang Lin, Lan Yan, and Yang Minna all raised similar questions.

"Feifei, you have to know that most of the audience in the movie theater are young people, most of whom are unmarried;"

"For these people, the word education is either too far away from them, or it is an unpredictable future;"

"If the whole article is just about simple primary education issues, no matter how good the filming is, it will resonate with the audience; for them, it is just an emotional commodity worth laughing and scolding once;"

"For at most three months, these audiences will forget about the perception of watching movies, let alone whether they have changed or not;"

After taking a sip of Hu spicy soup, Yang Zhu continued:
"People are profit-seeking creatures, if it can't sting the audience's universal values, or bring them profit-related thinking;"

"Then it's no different than a normal popcorn movie."

Liu Feifei seemed to understand a little bit: "So, master, you want to use education as a metaphor for some social problems, and only vaguely explain the intention in the last scene?"

Yang Zhu nodded.

Liu Feifei was a little puzzled: "But is it too subtle? I'm afraid most of the audience won't see your intentions!"

Yang Zhu smiled:
"The audience in our country really hates preaching. If you want to make this type of movie too revealing, they will collectively rebel, and it will not be effective."

"So, this kind of thing depends on fate. Anyway, it's just a movie with an investment of 300 million yuan. I didn't dare to have any ambitions."

Looking at the seemingly calm Yang Zhu, Liu Feifei always felt that her master's mood was a little low...

Recalling that this movie is inexplicably called "The First Line of Life", Liu Feifei can vaguely feel what her master wants to express, but she can't tell why.
Some sighed dejectedly, the world of adults is really difficult to understand...
