Asking them to set up their equipment so that it wouldn't be broken, Tang An pushed aside the crowd and walked in. He smiled and extended his right hand to the fat middle-aged man wearing glasses.
"Hello, leader, I am Tang An, the director of the crew!"
Zhang Yiping quickly introduced, "Director Li, this is the director and producer of our crew!"
Zhao Lei also briefly explained the matter to Tang An in a low voice.
Tang An nodded, smiled at Director Li, and said, "Hello Director, thank you very much for your school's willingness to lend us the classroom. If you have any requests, just ask, I will definitely comply!"
"snort!"
Director Li snorted heavily and glanced at Tang An, "Is that their leader?"
"Yes, I am." Tang An didn't take it seriously and smiled.
On other people's territory, it's better to lower your attitude a little, otherwise you'll really screw up and find a temporary place somewhere.
"Then what are you going to do? Are you going to demolish the classroom?" He pointed to a pile of tools outside and said with a displeased look on his face.
"Director, you misunderstood. We are just adding some lights on the ceiling and surroundings. It will not destroy the original decoration and will definitely not damage public property!" Tang An immediately assured.
Director Li didn't look so ugly after receiving Tang An's assurance, and let them in after some instructions.
However, he stopped Tang An and said, "Director, please wait a moment!"
"Director, is there anything else?"
"You suggested that the degree of brain development determines a person's intelligence?"
When this topic was mentioned, Director Li's expression became more and more unkind. Originally, talking nonsense about a movie had nothing to do with him.
However, in the past few days, students have been coming to him to verify whether this argument is correct. Even one of his graduate students asked him such a stupid question, which made him unbearable.
Instead of believing in science, believe the nonsense in movies!
...
It turns out that this is the real topic.
Only then did Tang An come to his senses and meet a real expert.
"Director Li, I read this argument from a book and thought it was very creative, so I applied it to the movie!"
"But this is a fallacy. You will mislead the audience!"
"Director Li, is there such a thing? I don't know either. I just saw it written like this in many books, so I used it." Tang An said pretending to be surprised.
Before he could speak, Tang An continued, "I saw Einstein said this, and it was also mentioned in Science magazine that some young people have greatly reduced brain volume due to cerebral edema, but they still
Possess normal or even superior intelligence level."
"Ordinary people generally only develop 10% of their brains. According to probability, most of the reduction in brain volume is the remaining 90%. Isn't this exactly what it means."
...
Tang An had made preparations early in the preparations, knowing that there would definitely be refutations.
He had read some related books and probably still remembered a little bit about it, so he insisted that he had read it from the books.
Director Li disagreed. He said solemnly, "Your understanding is one-sided. The human brain is very complex in structure and function. Brain trauma, stroke or other brain injuries will affect the function of the brain, causing people to lose movement, language
Or thinking ability. If the average person only uses 10% of the brain, then from a probability point of view, most of these injuries will appear on the unused 90% and will not affect people, but in fact this is not the case.
.”
"I see, but this is just a possibility. Since it's written in the book, there must be some truth to it!" Tang An looked like he suddenly realized it, but he insisted on what was written in the book.
Perhaps because he felt that Tang An's child was teachable, Director Li's expression softened a lot and he began to teach him earnestly.
"I have made many observations. A simple action at a certain moment, a change in emotion, and learning to think may only use a small part of the brain, but a sufficiently complex series of activities or thinking patterns require the use of a large part of the brain.
most areas.
Just like people will not use all their muscles at a certain time, people will not use all their brains at a certain time. But when examining the activity of the human brain over a longer time span, such as a whole day, it will
Discover that most areas of the human brain will come in handy..."
"Well, what Director Li said makes sense, I seem to understand a little bit!"
Tang An nodded frequently, no matter what he said, but he always added at the end, "But I only read it from books."
He became a little impatient after listening too much, and he had other business matters, so it would not be good to just stay here like this.
Tang Anchong glanced at Zhang Yiping inside, asking him to look at it first, and then motioned for Chen Daoming to go in first to familiarize himself with the environment and memorize his lines.
"Okay, Director Li, I am very interested in this topic of yours. I may make a related movie in the future. How about we find a place to chat slowly?"
"Well, just go to my office. Science should be understood by more people, and movies are a good communication channel!" Director Li was very pleased with Tang An's words and took him to another building.
Through conversation, Tang An also learned his identity, the head of the Department of Biology and a nationally renowned professor of neurobiology.
For three hours, Tang An returned to his student days, listening to the professor's lectures all morning, and finally got out.
Before leaving, the professor repeatedly told him that if you have any professional knowledge when making a movie, you must come to him.
After leaving the office, Tang An wiped the sweat from his forehead and sighed.
The whole morning has passed like this, and I guess I won’t be able to shoot today.
Back in the lecture theater, the lighting team, art team and photography team are constantly adjusting the position and angle of the lights.
In addition to the lighting on the top podium, all other locations must be taken care of. After all, students’ questions and their reactions must be photographed.
"Lao Zhang, contact the people at the school, open the projection screen, and show the material."
"Pay attention to the windows on all sides and all vents, and be sure to isolate the light from the outside world!"
Indoor photography light and outdoor light are not the same. If they are mixed together, post-processing will be very troublesome. Generally, only one or two entrances and exits are left.
"Lao Zhou, please try full power output or output according to the flash ratio!"
"Add a honeycomb to that light. The light should be harder to reduce scattered light and enhance directionality!"
...
After a lot of busy work, it was soon time for dinner.
The school's contact person said that they could go to the cafeteria to eat, but they would have to pay for it themselves.
Tang An had no intention of eating for free, so he asked everyone to prepare their own meals and come back to gather in 20 minutes. They were not allowed to stay in the school to avoid any accidents.
When they arrived at the restaurant, all the teachers and students in the school were heading to the cafeteria. More and more students were following them, and the cafeteria was almost blocked.
There was no way, Tang An could only let others go to eat first, and he led the actors to deal with these students.
