Entertaining Children

Yandian, Huaxi and Shenxi are the three most famous film and television academies in China, and they are also the three cradles for cultivating stars in China. Every year, the professional examinations of these three schools will attract the attention of many entertainment reporters.

On the day of the exam, reporters were not allowed to enter the school, so the reporters could only squat outside the school, hoping to find one or two celebrity faces who took the exam. In addition, it is to take some good-looking ordinary candidates and the scene photos of the school gate, and simply do some preliminary introduction reports.

However, there were too many candidates during the first test, and the scene was too crowded, so the reporters didn't have much room to play. Under normal circumstances, there are not many reporters who come during the test, and the time they stay will not be very long. When it comes to the second test and the third test, the average quality of the candidates who have been screened by the school once will be much higher, and there will be more outside reporters. Since Xiao Yao is dressed in a hat and glasses every time he comes to the exam, his clothes are not conspicuous, and his actions are extremely low-key, even though he has come to Shenxi to take two exams, no reporter has discovered him yet.

In addition to the day of the exam, the day when the rankings are released is also the day that reporters pay attention to. On the day when the results were announced, reporters were allowed to enter the school. In addition to filming the sad and happy scenes of the test takers who learned the results, they also paid attention to the list of test results posted by the school. However, the results of the test also did not arouse the interest of the reporters. Because even if the elimination rate of the first test reaches 90%, there are still nearly a thousand people who can enter the second test, and this list is arranged according to the student number, there is no ranking of results, no reporter will be interested in ranking thousands of students. Check out the full list of names.

It's different when it comes to the second test. On the one hand, this list is much shorter than the list of the first test, with only a few hundred people. On the other hand, this list is arranged according to the results of the second test. So far, none of Huaxia's three major film and television academies has ever had a candidate whose score in the top three in the second test was eliminated in the third test, and finally failed to pass the exam. At least the top three in the second test list already have a certain news value. If you can interview the top three candidates in the second test at the scene of the list, it will be enough to complete a good entertainment news report . When Xiao Yao's name appeared first on the second test list, many reporters excitedly began to search for Xiao Yao's figure on the spot.

Fortunately, the three of Xiao Yao lived close to each other, came early, saw the opportunity quickly, and disappeared after reading the list, so they were not blocked by the reporters at the scene. It is also because Xiao Yao was not caught by the reporters on the spot, and the reporters without the support of the photos on the spot dare not be 100% sure that the first place in the second test is the one who won the "Golden Disc" award and the "Flying Apsaras" award Xiao Yao, the report had to take a slightly questionable tone. However, it is foreseeable that there will be more reporters outside the school than in previous years on the day of the third play application this year.

On the day when the third exam of the Shenxi Acting Department started, there were indeed more reporters with cameras on their backs than in previous years outside the school. It's just that until the exam started at 9 o'clock in the morning, none of the reporters waiting at the school gate found Xiao Yao's figure.

In the open space in front of the teaching building of the Acting Department of Shencheng Drama Academy, more than 300 candidates have already lined up.

Waiting for the roll call. Lin Qisan and Nina Aiguri stood side by side at the end of a team, sometimes looking at the door of the teaching building, sometimes looking back.

"Here we come!" Nina, who looked back again, finally saw a familiar figure in the distance, and pulled Lin Qisan beside her and said.

"Here!" Lin Qisan, who turned his head, also saw the figure running over in the distance, raised his arms and waved.

"Huh~" Xiao Yao, who ran in front of the two of them, bent down and supported his knees to pant for breath, then straightened up and asked, "Have you not called my name yet?"

"No, it hasn't even started yet." Lin Qisan said.

"That's good." Saying that, Xiao Yao exhaled again.

"Where did you come in from? After so long, you still run out of breath?" Lin Qisan asked strangely.

"I came in over the wall." Xiao Yao said helplessly, "This school faces the main road on all sides, I finally found a corner with few people, and I had to wait until no one passed by before I dared to turn over. This is not a delay It was too long, and I was afraid of being late, so I ran all the way here."

In the first and second exams, there were tens of thousands of candidates, and the reporter didn't know that Xiao Yao was among the candidates, so Xiao Yao successfully entered the campus exam without alarming the reporters by dressing up in a hat and glasses. But today there are only 300 candidates left in the third test. After reading the list of the second test, the reporters obviously came for Xiao Yao. All of them stared at the candidates with wide eyes. It is impossible to sneak past the reporters with only hats and glasses.

When the three came to take the exam early in the morning, they spotted the reporters waiting at the school gate from a distance. Xiao Yao, who didn't want to entangle with the reporters, asked Lin Qisan and Nina to advance to the school, saying that he had another way to sneak into the school without being discovered by the reporters. And his so-called method is to climb over the wall and enter. After all, the school is so large that it is impossible for reporters to guard every section of the fence.

"Why do you do this? At most, I will hold you for a few interviews. If you just deal with it, you will be done. You are here for the exam. The reporters outside will not drag you away and delay your exam." Lin Qisan looked at Xiao Yao and shook his head amusedly.

"It's fine if there are only one or two reporters, but they sent so many people to block me, I just don't want them to get what they want." Xiao Yao also laughed, "Don't you think it's fun to play hide-and-seek with reporters? Yes, climbing over the school wall is quite exciting."

"You don't mean to use this weird behavior to relieve your tension, do you?" Nina looked at Xiao Yao suspiciously and said.

"Come on, I've never seen this evildoer get nervous." Lin Qisan curled his lips and said, "Didn't you hear what he said? It's purely for stimulation and fun. He is too relaxed, where is the tension?"

"Okay, I'm not late anyway, so it's fine if I don't delay the exam." Xiao Yao turned the shoulders of the two of them back and said, "Look, someone has come out, and the roll call should start."

Turning around, Lin Qisan and Nina saw a young man in his twenties who looked like a graduate student coming out with a roster and standing on the steps of the teaching building. Only this time, this person did not hold a loudspeaker in his hand, but directly introduced the rules of the three tests to the candidates below with his penetrating voice.

Like the first test and the second test, the third test of the Shenxi Acting Department is still conducted in groups of ten candidates. But the difference is that there is only one exam room for the three exams today, and all the candidates are facing the same group of examiners. In addition, in the previous two exams, the ten candidates in the same group were basically candidates who were assigned to the same test number in that test room. But in today's third test, the candidates were not grouped according to the principle of close test numbers in the same test room, nor were they arranged according to the results of the second test, but were randomly assigned without rules. Fortunately, in today's three tests, Xiao Yao, Lin Qisan, and Nina Aigul were placed in the same group.

When Xiao Yao was called by his name in the third test today, there was no discussion at the scene, at most, someone looked at Xiao Yao curiously. When Xiao Yao was called by name and entered the lobby on the first floor to wait, the same group did not come up to him to ask for his autograph like Ding Qiao did in the second test. After all, after two rounds of screening and elimination, these candidates can be regarded as elites, among other things, at least they are not low-minded. What about stars? As long as they pass today's three tests and enter this school, they can become a star like Xiao Yao four years later, not even four years later, and now go to Xiao Yao for an autograph as a fan? Is it right?

After entering the examination room under the leadership of the teacher who led the team, Xiao Yao looked at the environment of the examination room as usual. Compared with the first test and the second test, the examination room for the third test is much larger. It doesn't look like a classroom, but more like a rehearsal room. Of course, the lineup of examiners is also more luxurious. Chen Xiao, the chief examiner for the first test, did not show up, and Mr. He, the chief examiner for the second test, only sat in the middle next to the chief examiner. And sitting in the middle of the examiner's seat was an old man with gray hair. Xiao Yao knew that this old man was named Zhao Xinghua, and he was a performing artist of the same generation as his grandfather Xiao Chengru.

Xiao Yao knew that this old man was not because Zhao Xinghua and Xiao Chengru had a good personal relationship, and he knew him through his grandfather's relationship, but the photo and biography of Professor Zhao Xinghua, the honorary dean of the Shencheng Academy of Drama, was posted on the official website of the Shencheng Academy of Drama Introduce that column in a very prominent position on the homepage.

In addition to a larger test venue and a more luxurious lineup of examiners, the hardware facilities of this test are also better and more comprehensive than the previous two tests. Not to mention the more advanced audio equipment and more complete props and scenery, because the third test has the content of the candidates' talent show, and there are many musical instruments in the test room. Large instruments such as drums and pianos that are not easy for candidates to carry, are prepared for candidates in the examination room. The most eye-catching instrument is the harp, which usually only appears in conservatories and symphony orchestras. In the examination room They all set up a frame.

"Welcome everyone to participate in the third examination of the Shenxi Acting Department." After ten candidates lined up against the wall, Professor Zhao Xinghua's voice sounded. Although he is in his sixties, his voice is still full of energy. Moreover, with the habitual "resonance" cavity and the thick voice, without using any audio equipment, all the candidates felt that the old professor was standing beside him and talking.

"It's amazing!" Xiao Yao sighed in his heart.

"There will be no roll call for the third exam. You guys will come up and do the first self-introduction and talent show. Just follow the order of your current team," Zhao Xinghua said, pointing to the first to enter the exam room. Xiao Yao, who was at the end of the line away from the gate, said, "It starts with you."

Xiao Yao was about to step forward, but Lin Qisan beside him suddenly raised his hand and shouted, "Teacher!"

Lin Qisan's sudden move made Xiao Yao stop. Zhao Xinghua also looked up at Lin Qisan in some surprise, "What's wrong?"

"Teacher, I suggest that Xiao Yao be the last to take the exam!" Lin Qisan said loudly.

"Oh? Why?" Zhao Xinghua asked with interest. He has been proctoring the exam for so many years, and it was the first time that he encountered a candidate who dared to make suggestions for the examiner's arrangement.

"He is the first in the second test. I am worried that if he takes the test first, other candidates will be psychologically shocked after seeing his performance." Lin Qisan said.

"Are you so unconfident? Afraid of being influenced by him?" Zhao Xinghua looked straight into Lin Qisan's eyes and said, "What's your name?"

"I am the one who will not be affected by him among all the candidates, because I grew up with him and I am used to being hit by him. I just think about other candidates." Lin Qisan shook his head and replied neither humble nor overbearing , "My name is Lin Qisan!"

Xiao Yao curled his lips and thought, "For the sake of other candidates? It's obviously for Nina's sake!"
