Chapter 357 The Three Trials
On the 14th, the day of Yanying's third test.
The students and parents who were waiting at the school gate in advance were a little nervous and unnatural, not because the final stage of the art test was about to come, but because of the few cameras around.
Candidates unconsciously straightened their backs, trying to show their best condition without looking at the camera.
However, there are a few candidates who are very natural, they don't put the camera in their eyes at all, and they chat enthusiastically on their own.
"It just so happens that we are all in the morning. After the exam, let's go eat hot pot. For the past half month, I'm afraid of getting angry and getting acne and eating light every day. I'm about to suffocate."
Yang Zi eagerly proposed, mainly to Reba and Nazha.
Zhang Yishan will not have any opinions, even if he has, he can ignore them.
"Yeah!"
Reba responded immediately and became full of energy when it came to eating.
Nazha felt helpless looking at her girlfriends. Others, especially girls, eat less and vegetarian food every day, coupled with anxiety and worry, they will lose a few catties in general.
Only Reba, not only did not lose weight, but gained more than two catties, this had a lot to do with her inability to control her mouth.
But today is the last day of the exam. After the end, it can be regarded as the completion of a small stage. It should be celebrated, so I nodded and agreed.
But when he looked at Zhang Yishan, he said again:
"I got AA today, so I can't ask you anymore."
The reason why they say this is because they have been in the Yanying Art Examination for less than half a month, and they have often gone out with Yang Zi and Zhang Yishan during the period.
They are similar in age, and they are all walking the same path, and there is a high probability that they will be classmates for four years in the future, so the relationship should not be drawn too quickly.
And at their age, going out to play is nothing more than eating, drinking, and seeing scenic spots, and all the expenses are paid by Mr. Zhang.
His reasons are also complex and varied, different every time.
"What do you mean, I'm a grown man going out to play with you little girls, and asking you to spend money, so where can I put the face of Brother Shan?"
"Brother Shan is already a big star who gets paid. When you guys become famous in the future, please come back. If you don't invite me, I can blackmail you in front of the reporters."
Zhang Yishan was about to repeat the old trick this time, and was about to slap his chest, when a voice suddenly interrupted him.
"Zhang Yishan, Yang Zi, and the two most beautiful candidates."
A boy walked up to them at some point, smiled and said something.
When several people looked at the boy, they all felt familiar, but they couldn't remember who it was for a while.
The boy’s reaction to several people was not surprising. He introduced himself:
"My name is Qin Junjie..."
Before he finished speaking, Yang Zi suddenly said "Oh—" and suddenly realized:
""Golden Armor"! The little prince in "Golden Armor", right?"
After she reminded her, several others also remembered.
In addition to them, the candidates interviewed by the reporter during the first examination also included this "man-seeking man".
It's no wonder that he dared to take the initiative to "break through" their circle. Ordinary art candidates are too embarrassed or dare not take the initiative to talk to them, but this is also a child actor, so he has no scruples.
Hearing Yang Zi's words, Qin Junjie smiled even more, and generously admitted:
"When I was young, I was lucky enough to act in Director Zhang's movie."
"awesome."
Zhang Yishan praised repeatedly, then suddenly remembered something, and said:
"By the way, Director Zhang is also the examiner today."
"Well, so I'm very stressed. I called Director Zhang yesterday because I was afraid that I might disappoint him if I didn't perform well."
Qin Junjie looked a little apprehensive, but also carried a hint of imperceptible pride.
How many people can call Zhang Yimou and let him down?
This is to show their relationship with the big shots, in order to be valued in this new group.
Of course, there are also young people who unconsciously show their thoughts in front of the beautiful opposite sex, similar to a peacock spreading its tail.
But when he expected Zhang Yishan and the others to "comfort and encourage him, and then express their envy for his relationship with Zhang Yimou", he was disappointed.
Not only did the few people not do what he thought, but they showed expressions of understanding.
Even the shorter girl from Xinjiang sighed and looked at him with a look of "sympathy for each other".
It won't fix it for him.
"It's okay, as long as we act sincerely and show our truest reaction, the point is to let the examiner see what you look like, and don't use the routine performance of art test training."
It was Yang Zi who spoke, but it wasn't the kind of comfort and envy he thought, but it was similar to Xueba telling students who were not as good as him about the exam ideas before the exam.
The key point is this line of thinking... is still correct.
Although the words he got from Zhang Yimou were different from Yang Zi's, they almost meant the same thing.
He has Zhang Yimou to guide him, but what about Yang Zi?
Is it...
He looked at Zhang Yishan, who was the only one among the four who was doing well in the circle, because he knew many bigwigs in "Longing for Life", so it's not surprising that someone gave advice.
Moreover, one of the bosses Zhang Yishan knew was Qin Muchu, one of today's examiners.
Thinking about it this way, Qin Junjie was relieved at the reaction of the few people who didn't envy him just now.
Speaking of which, he also met Qin Muchu when he was filming "Golden Armor" in Hengdian, but he only met Qin Muchu and never talked to him, let alone left his contact information.
At the same time, I am more determined to make friends with several people.
After "Golden Armor" in 06, he did not quit the circle, and starred in a movie and TV series "The Prince of Tennis" one after another.
That's right, it's the popular Japanese animation "The Prince of Tennis", whose copyright was bought by China to remake the live-action version.
It’s just that the movies and TV series weren’t popular.
Having been in the circle for a long time, he is naturally not a simple boy, and he knows the importance of making useful contacts.
So he showed gratitude and said to Yang Zi:
"Thank you, this is important information."
"Hey, you're welcome, sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes, don't stick to trifles, help others, and are the foundation of life."
Yang Zi smiled proudly and waved his hands.
But Zhang Yishan dismantled the stage, squinting at Yang Zi:
"I don't know who the cat was at home two days ago. He was so nervous that he didn't dare to go out. Now he's squirming."
Yang Zi stared unceremoniously:
"Who, who? I don't know."
Then he pushed Zhang Yishan's arm with his small fist and asked repeatedly:
"Is it you? Is it you?"
Zhang Yishan rolled his eyes to the sky, curled his lips in disdain:
"It's me, it's me, it's me who is too worried to go out all day, it's me who still wants sister Mi to send messages to comfort, it's me who takes the messages sent by sister Mi to help others, it's me who refuses to admit it's me now."
A series of "it's me" made Yang Zi blush, and raised his hand to pinch Zhang Yishan.
Naturally, Zhang Yishan couldn't bear this loss, and immediately hid behind Reba and Nazha.
Nazha and Reba didn't stop the two of them, watching them fight with a smile on their face.
I've gotten used to it these days.
If before, Yang Zi would have to chase Zhang Yishan around the two of them for a few laps, but today there are many outsiders, so he is embarrassed, and stares at Zhang Yishan to indicate that this matter is not over.
However, Qin Junjie heard an important person from Zhang Yishan's words - Sister Mi.
Who is Miss Mi?
Just as I was about to ask, suddenly a girl's voice sounded next to me:
"Hello, my name is Yang Caiyu. I just overheard your conversation from the side. I just came back from abroad, and I have never studied acting. I was so confused that I took the third test.
Can you tell me what to pay attention to during the third test? "
Qin Junjie cast his eyes, wanting to see who can be like him, dare to take the initiative to strike up a conversation.
Then, his pupils dilated uncontrollably, and he saw a face that resembled the popular actress Liu Xiqian.
The four of Zhang Yishan also cast their gazes when they heard the girl's voice, and then reached a unified expression with Qin Junjie.
Reba was the first to react, and wanted to speak with excitement, but he held back, and just patted Nazha's arms several times.
Nazha knew what her best friend wanted to say.
Little Sissy!
This is the person Miss Mi asked them to pay attention to in the retest.
Yang Caiyu was not surprised by the expressions of these people, she even knew what they were thinking at this moment.
This person looks like Liu Xiqian.
Not only these few people had this reaction when they saw her, but many people saw her like this.
It's actually better after returning to China, because everyone only thinks that she looks like Liu Xiqian.
In the United States, foreigners who are already confused about oriental faces firmly believe that she is Liu Xiqian.
Especially during the months when "Inception" became popular, her classmates insisted on asking her to help find Downey for an autograph.
Who knows Iron Man! ! ?
"Can't you? That's bothering you."
Yang Caiyu said with a smile.
But there was no intention of leaving.
Yang Zi reacted and said quickly:
"Of course, it's just that you are so beautiful, you look silly, haha, if you want to ask, I will tell you what I know."
Yang Caiyu's eyes flickered, and her affection for Yang Zi increased.
It's not because Yang Zi is warm-hearted, but because she didn't say she looked like Liu Xiqian when she praised her beauty.
Like Liu Xiqian, it means that people are very beautiful, but no one likes to be said to look like someone other than relatives, especially in the entertainment industry, especially this "someone" is similar to her age.
Looking at Yang Zi's appearance, she was even more determined that Yang Zi was her first friend in this school.
If Yang Zi can pass the exam.
As for Nazha and Reba on the side, she felt a little conflicted in her heart, they would steal her limelight if they were too beautiful.
But also unite on one front.
So he asked two random questions that he had prepared before saying hello, and after getting the reply, he thanked Yang Zi and looked at Reba.
"When we first took the exam, there were a batch of exams, do you remember?"
Reba didn't expect "Little Qianqian" to remember herself, so she nodded immediately and said:
"Remember, you sang the ending song of Little Nezha."
"That was when I was very young. When I saw you in the first exam, I thought you were too beautiful, and this Nazha who was with you next to you, both of you are the most beautiful candidates."
Yang Caiyu smiled.
"No no……"
After chatting like this, all the people knew each other and walked to the examination room together when the school gate opened.
Such a small group naturally attracted the attention of many candidates, wanting to join but lacking the courage to speak.
For example, a tall boy with a height of at least [-] has been following them, but keeping a certain distance, looking at them with envious eyes.
Even the queuing at the entrance of the examination room followed closely behind.
……
When the sky was just dawn, Zhang Yimou came to the courtyard to look for Qin Muchu, and asked him to go to invigilate the exam together.
The old man likes to be there early for everything, so Qin Muchu told Zeng Li not to forget that after Yang Mi's flight to Hong Kong Island today, he went directly to Yanying with him.
When they arrived at the examination room, they were alone.
Simply go to the school cafeteria to buy some breakfast, and then return to the examination room after eating, the time is almost up.
"It's not that your director is a little too risky. I heard Zhiqiang said that you invested [-] million?"
Zhang Yimou frowned habitually, and told Qin Muchu about "Monster Hunt".
"The [-] million yuan was spent on special effects, so I didn't spend any money, maybe I could make some money."
Qin Muchu said this without hesitation.
He was not afraid that Lao Mouzi would tell his old friend Jiang Zhiqiang, because Jiang Zhiqiang also knew about it.
It's his money to make.
If you don’t look for [Suirenshi] for special effects, then go to Hollywood, it will only be more expensive.
If Jiang Zhiqiang couldn't turn this corner, he wouldn't be able to make such a big business.
Zhang Yimou nodded, at least in this case it is guaranteed that he will not lose money.
But whoever makes a movie just wants to make a profit, and still wants to make money.
When he heard that the film director with an investment of [-] million yuan was a "newcomer", his scalp tingled.
So he asked again:
"Aren't you okay? Why don't you direct yourself, it's safer."
"That script is not what I want to shoot, and I have no interest."
Qin Muchu's willful words made Zhang Yimou choked up.
He knows what it means to be rich and powerful.
Because I don't want to make a movie, I just don't direct a movie that has invested [-] million yuan.
Seeing Zhang Yimou's speechless look, Qin Muchu smiled and patted him on the shoulder:
"Director Zhang, you need to broaden your horizons. It's only [-] million yuan. I'm going to make my next film, so that's a lot of money."
Zhang Yimou's eyes lit up:
"Are you ready to make a new movie?"
"I have an idea, and I'm writing the script, but it's unlikely to be filmed this year." Qin Muchu replied.
The script has only just been written, and the filming is a sci-fi blockbuster, so the pre-production is very troublesome.
Furthermore, Zhou Huimin is pregnant, and he doesn't want to be unable to see each other for a long time because of filming.
"The heroine is Liu Xiqian?"
Zhang Yimou suddenly said this sentence without beginning or end.
Qin Muchu was stunned for a moment, thinking about the Internet violence before, but he didn't expect that Lao Mouzi also surfed on 3G.
That's right, today I saw that the old man's old treasures were all replaced by apples.
But it really made Lao Mouzi guess right.
He really planned to let Liu Xiqian play the heroine.
It's just that he didn't tell Liu Xiqian about this, but told Liu Xiaoli that he was going to make a blockbuster movie like "Inception", and he needed the heroine to maintain that kind of sporty beauty.
From Liu Xiaoli's firm eyes, Qin Muchu could tell that Liu Xiqian would not live a very comfortable life in the future.
The two chatted for a while, and the rest of the examiners from the third test also came.
Including Qin Muchu and Zhang Yimou, there are sixteen students in total, four of whom are outside the school.
There is the professor of Beiwu, the leader of the repertory theater, the president of the Film and Television Photographers Association, and Zhang Yimou.
After some politeness, the exam began.
"Go in from 1 to 6."
It is still a group test, but compared with the initial test group of ten, the number of people has been reduced to six.
Because the third test is more detailed, in addition to the recitation and personal talent display that have been tested before, it also tests performance.
Generally, a scene is set and then performed collectively.
If there are too many people, the examiner will not be able to see it.
The 6 candidates who were quickly called came in. When they saw that Zhang Yimou was really sitting there, although they had known it for a long time, they still couldn't help short of breath.
Even the light of Qin Muchu next to him seemed to be dimmed.
This is the glory and prestige accumulated over time.
When several students were looking at the examiner, the examiner was also looking at them.
Qin Muchu's gaze locked on one of the six girls.
This girl gave him the best feeling among the six people.
With a sweet appearance and the temperament of a girl next door, she is very suitable for acting in some youthful campus romance dramas.
He looked down at the candidate information.
"Wu Qian, from Wuhan, Hubei..."
Qin Muchu is reading the materials here, and the students have already started the exam over there.
There is nothing to say about the recitation and talent show. If you can get to this level, not to mention how amazing it is, at least you are qualified.
Soon it will be the most important part of the third test, the impromptu performance of the proposition.
"Assuming you're at the zoo and ready to get started."
Teacher Cui stipulated the situation, and then waited for the performances of the candidates.
The condition is so concise that it cannot be more concise, the purpose is to see the imagination of the students, and imagination is very important for an actor.
It can even be said to be indispensable.
Soon students began to perform.
"Look, monkey, monkey!"
A boy excitedly pointed somewhere, shouted to the air next to him, and then patted the air in front of him with both hands, making a sound of "嘬嘬嘬".
Everyone understood that this was teasing monkeys to come over through glass or cages.
The boy's identity was naturally revealed—a zoo visitor.
Someone started, and the rest of the candidates followed.
However, most of them follow the trend and play the role of tourists, while others play the role of animals in the zoo.
All of a sudden, strange scenes appeared in the examination room.
After about 3 minutes, Teacher Cui stopped the performance.
Some situations were stipulated one by one, and each candidate was allowed to perform individually.
Just like that, the first batch of candidates for the third test ended.
"The acting is too idealistic."
The leader of the repertory theater gave an evaluation.
The rest of the teachers nodded in agreement. The students performed the two performances just now, whether it was a group play or an individual play, which was very "not life".
Just like the boy who was the first to perform in a group play, in real life such a big boy would never be so excited to see a monkey.
It's not that I saw Monkey King again.
This is a very taken-for-granted performance that looks contrived.
However, this is a common problem of most candidates, and it cannot be said that they will be eliminated, and performance is not all that is scored in the three tests.
In this way, the second batch, the third batch...
Groups of students came in for the exam and then went out. Qin Muchu also saw some familiar faces, such as Zhang Yishan who was taking the exam.
His performance was significantly better than other candidates. After all, he is a professional actor with rich experience.
But also because he is a professional actor and has a familiar face, the teachers have higher requirements, and the evaluation is also stricter.
Just like Qin Muchu is now pointing out Zhang Yishan's problem:
"You love acting so much, your body movements and facial expressions are very rich, so rich that it's a bit overdone, a bit exaggerated.
This is Liu Xing, not you. You cannot be bound by this role for the rest of your life. You have to learn how to do subtraction and pull yourself out slowly. "
Qin Muchu's words can be regarded as harsh, as can be seen from Zhang Yishan's expression of a little chuckle at the beginning to the sweating and dazed look on his face now.
But he's not someone who can't figure it out, it's a good thing to be evaluated, why didn't Qin Muchu say anything about others?
He bowed and thanked:
"Thank you, Teacher Qin."
Qin Muchu nodded and did not speak again.
To tell the truth, Zhang Yishan appreciates it very much, he has a lot of energy in him, but because he has played Liu Xing for too long, and because he is acting in his true colors, he seems to have gotten used to this Liu Xing's acting mode.
Everything he plays is Liu Xing, or himself.
This is not impossible, many actors are like this.
Like Chen Daomin, Zhou Xingxing...
But people have settled in the early stage, and finally found their own style.
Even if they play themselves, they will not make people feel disobedient, and they can bring the audience into the emotions of the characters, making people cry and laugh.
But Zhang Yishan couldn't do it.
This is similar to the triple realm of "looking at mountains as mountains, seeing water as water; seeing mountains as not mountains, seeing who is not water; seeing mountains as mountains, seeing water as water".
The first realm seems to be the same as the third realm, but it is actually completely different.
Qin Muchu was not the only one who saw Zhang Yishan's problem, but they didn't say anything more after Qin Muchu commented just now.
It’s too late.
Too much pressure can easily overwhelm children.
No, after Zhang Yishan and his group left, Zhang Yimou said:
"If this child can't change himself in the future, the way to play will be narrow."
Qin Muchu nodded, then looked at Teacher Cui and smiled:
"Isn't Teacher Cui here? There are no students that Teacher Cui can't teach."
Although Zhang Yishan's problem was mentioned just now, it is viewed at the level of a professional actor. If he is only regarded as an ordinary candidate, his performance is completely qualified or even excellent.
Entering Yanying is almost a certainty.
Teacher Cui rolled her eyes when she heard that, if she was in the office, she would have taken out the teaching stick.
……
Another group of candidates walked in.
This time, the examiners who were a little sluggish after proctoring the exam for two or three hours were all in high spirits.
Because there are two girls and one boy in this group.
"Liu Xing went to Xiaoxue again after the exam, and Director Zhang's little prince, this girl just..."
Some teachers were joking, but at the end they looked at Qin Muchu.
Qin Muchu didn't speak, his eyes stayed on a girl.
He finally met the "Little Qianqian" whom Yang Mi had been longing for.
The appearance is indeed half or six points similar to Liu Xiqian, and even more similar to Liu Xiaoli.
The girl was not shy when she saw him looking at her. Instead, she smiled generously and looked at him.
This is something no other student has ever done.
Usually they and Qin Muchu looked at each other for a second or two, and then they would look away.
Qin Muchu is very satisfied with the girl's personality, it is a good thing for an actor to be confident and not stage fright.
"Yang Caiyu, a native of Wuhan, studied dance as a child, and later went to study in the United States..."
Looking at the girl's profile, Qin Muchu's expression became more and more strange.
I couldn't help but have an absurd idea in my heart.
Could it be Liu Xiqian's long-lost sister?
It doesn't matter if they look alike, even their life experiences are so similar, is it really such a coincidence?
Exams will start soon.
In the talent show, both Yang Zi and Yang Caiyu danced.
Yang Caiyu danced Latin dance with such graceful posture that even the professor of Beijing Dance nodded.
But when it came to Yang Zi...
Qin Muchu's expression almost flew up like Zhang Yishan's.
What do you think of Yang Zi’s dance?
It's messy, it's very self-indulgent, it looks like it's jumping around.
But her expression was too confident, and every time she waved and stepped, she was full of strength.
So much so that Qin Muchu wondered if he was ignorant and didn't know this kind of dance.
After all, he is a complete layman in dance, and the only thing he knows is radio gymnastics.
But when he saw the old professor Beiwu's face full of doubts, he understood.
This girl is just dancing blindly!
"Hoo hoo, thank you teachers."
After dancing, Yang Zi bowed deeply, and her expression instantly changed from full of confidence to uneasy.
She was indeed jumping around.
In fact, she had asked a teacher to make up a hip-hop dance, which was very beautiful and explosive, but when it came to the exam...she forgot, and her mind went blank.
As a last resort, I can only jump wildly.
She felt like she was done.
Especially when the Beiwu professor only commented on her dancing with "very energetic", she was even more flustered.
You must know that Yang Caiyu's dance teacher commented on it for a long time after dancing.
"I knew I would have sung "The Sloppy King"..."
This is the only thought in Yang Zi's heart at the moment.
She sang this song very well, just like the original one.
It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world. After she finished her performance in the last talent show, Teacher Cui directly announced that she would enter the next session.
"You're on a bus now, ready to go straight away."
Hearing Teacher Cui's words, the candidates all showed joy.
This question is not difficult.
Who has never taken a bus before, just need to recall it, and then perform it...
Wait a minute, what is this guy doing?
Just as Qin Junjie was about to make a move, he saw a tall boy come out and walk to the front, then squatted down halfway, raised both hands, holding something in one hand, and pointing at something with the other hand.
Seeing this scene, Qin Muchu showed a smile.
The question of "bus" is different from "zoo". If you react quickly enough, there is actually a character that is very good and brilliant-the driver.
He is an indispensable and unique character on the bus.
Moreover, compared to passengers, he has a certain degree of initiative.
The boy was brilliant and thought of the driver almost immediately.
And his actions are also exquisite.
Holding the steering wheel with one hand, the other hand is pressing the button to open the bus door.
Very life-detailed performance.
Qin Muchu became interested in this tall boy.
In the previous recitation and talent show, the boy did not perform well, and Qin Muchu only vaguely remembered that his name seemed to be Li Xian.
Now that he occupies the role of driver, he may not be able to perform well. If he takes the driver's initiative into full play, it may not be so.
After all, the driver is good at acting. If you squat there and hold the steering wheel, anyone can tell who he is.
But it's also the easiest to ignore.
"Can't go up, can't go up!"
Li Xian suddenly shouted impatiently at the other five candidates.
The sound stunned the examinees, but made the examiners smile.
This is a situation created in the original situation - the driver urges the passengers to get on the bus.
And it also restricted the position of other candidates-the car door.
It's easy to say, isn't it just a shout?
But in fact, most candidates really lack "this voice".
Previously, almost all the candidates performed their own roles in the situation specified by the teacher, without any communication at all.
If this is the case, why do you have to make a group show, why not go solo directly.
But Li Xian's voice immediately made the characters connect together, and the play came alive.
Next, it depends on how other candidates take it.
Yang Zi was the first to react. She grabbed the non-existent car door and asked:
"Master, wait a minute, do you take this bus to Tiananmen Square?"
In one sentence, it explained why I didn't get in the car.
When she got Li Xian's reply "Yes, yes", she got into the car immediately without putting in a coin.
If that's the case, in fact, Yang Zi was just "acted" by Li Xian, so she did another thing next.
He turned around and waved to the people behind him:
"Hurry up, we didn't bring much money with us for this trip, so we should save money, Yanjing taxis are too expensive."
Another situation.
And arrange their identities.
Tourists who travel to Yanjing from other places.
Seeing this, the two best performers in this group show seem to have come out.
No matter how good the other candidates performed later, they could hardly escape the situation set by Li Xian and Yang Zi.
It's not surprising that Yang Zi can perform like Qin Muchu, after all, this is a "little actor" who has debuted for many years.
The boy named Li Xian was a little unexpected.
"This kid is not bad. He probably hasn't studied acting, but he's pretty smart."
Teacher Cui whispered beside Qin Muchu.
