"Ah, there are so many people! Xiaoxue, hurry up!"

Pepper didn't want to come, but thinking about his poor performance in the first test, he would definitely be brushed off. But her good classmates insisted on pulling her to see the list of shortlisted for the re-examination.

Standing at the door of the Chinese opera, looking at the overwhelming crowd, she suddenly recalled that she was here yesterday evening, and she actually waited all afternoon, just to apologize to the obscene uncle.

Now that I think about it, I feel like I'm really a little confused, this is not my usual style at all!

The list of re-examinations for the Chinese opera art examination was posted on the bulletin board, and the front was full of people, Xiao Pepper's good classmate was short, and he couldn't see it on tiptoe, so he hurriedly pulled Xiao Pepper, who was half a head taller than her, and said, "Xiaoxue, can you help me see where my name is?"

Where is it?

It is actually an ironclad tone that can enter the retest, but it has aroused a lot of jealous eyes, after all, the ratio of the first test to the second test is nearly 20:1.

Xiao Pepper looked at the names on it nonchalantly, and suddenly her gaze froze, and Bai Xue's name was on the list.

It can't be the same name and surname, right?

She couldn't even believe her eyes, and hurriedly looked at the exam number next to her, yes, it was her own exam number.

Just when she was still stunned, the good classmate next to her pulled her arm and urged: "Xiaoxue, don't be stunned, hurry up and watch!"

The corners of Little Pepper's mouth turned up, but he didn't make a sound, and looked at the list from beginning to end, but he never found the name of the good classmate next to him.

She shook her head regretfully and said, "No!"

"My name doesn't have one?" The good classmate's eyes widened, and he looked incredulous, "Have you seen clearly?"

Little Pepper spread his hands and said, "Why don't you squeeze in and take a look yourself!"

Looking at the crowded crowd and the sincere little pepper, the good classmate had to sigh and say, "Xiaoxue, it seems that I will take the exam again with you next year." ”

"Well, if I get brushed off in the second or third test, I will definitely come with you next year. ”

"yes, then we ...... Hey, you said re-test, three tests, do you mean your name is on it?"

The good classmate looked shocked and hurriedly said, "You clearly said yesterday that you sang out of tune and offended the examiner, how is this possible?"

"I don't know, but my name is on the list. ”

The good classmate couldn't believe it this time, and squeezed into the crowd with his little short legs, and after a while, he squeezed out, looking dejected, looking at Xiao Pepper with complicated eyes, and squeezing out a smile on his face: "Xiaoxue congratulations!"

Little Pepper smiled and said, "Thank you!"

said, and comforted: "It's just a retest, and then there will be three more tests, and only fifty people will be recruited out of three hundred, maybe in a few days I will be brushed down like you, and I will be happy." Hey, by the way, you didn't have breakfast either, let's go, I'll invite you. ”

What does it mean to just retest, and what does it mean to be brushed off like yourself?

The good classmate felt that it was obviously the line he originally planned to say, why did he let the other party say it now?

She was very aggrieved and felt a great injustice, but in the end she didn't have the courage to shout: "The art examination is unfair!" This kind of words, so she had to smile reluctantly: "Xiaoxue, go by yourself, I can't eat it." ”

After speaking, he no longer greeted Pepper and left by himself.

Little Pepper looked at the back of this "good" classmate, and a trace of disdain flashed in her eyes. Then he looked back at the list, and his expression began to become a little confused.

If He Xin was on the scene at this time, he would definitely give them a clear answer.

When Pepper took the first exam, although he sang out of tune, when their batch of candidates went out, the vocal teacher still said: "Bai Xue, this candidate's timbre is good, maybe it was because of nervousness just now." ”

Originally, it was a candidate who needed to be paid attention to, and the appearance of this person named Bai Xue was also very good, Hao Rong groaned a little, and then he said finally: "Okay, then put her in the re-examination list and take a look." ”

As for her good classmate who was very confident from the beginning, although her body and singing are not bad, she is seriously inconsistent with what she filled in the registration form.

The height on the registration form is clearly 1.68 meters, but when she stands in front of the examiner, let alone 1.68, it seems that even 1.60 is barely enough.

There is also a photo, the photo is also very different from me, my face is obviously like a naan, why is the photo a melon seed face?

Big face, short legs, good lies, bad reviews!

......

Many years later, He Xin can still recall the scene of meeting Lou Huohua for the first time.

It was a rainy afternoon in early March, and the humid and cold climate in the early spring of Shenghai made He Xin, who had long been accustomed to the dry and heated north, very uncomfortable.

In a small office of Shanghai Film Studio, he saw Lou Huohua for the first time.

It was a swarthy, thin man with a small shaved head, a black jacket, a black sweater, black trousers, and black leather shoes.

"Lou Dao, hello!"

"Come on, sit down. ”

Although Lou Huohua's first impression seemed a little wooden, the smile on his face was very sincere.

"Hey!"

He Xin looked around the small office, two desks were put together, the table was full of various materials and manuscripts, a small TV and a video recorder were placed in the corner, and the chair next to it was full of videotapes, looking at the cover of the box, it seemed to be some old movies.

He sat down on one of the two armchairs opposite the desk against the wall, and on the coffee table in the middle was a book with the words "The State of Man" written on the cover, and the following was written by André Malraux (France), a book by a French author.

Lou Huohua saw that he noticed the book and said with a smile: "This is a novel describing the underground resistance movement in Shenghai in 1927. ”

"The French still write this?" He Xin was surprised.

"This author lived in Shenghai at the time. By the way, there is also a copy of "Shenghai" written by RB writer Yokomitsu Toshiichi, who also lived in Shenghai at that time. ”

Lou Huohua said as he took out a book from under a pile of manuscripts on his desk and handed it to him.

He Xin took it and flipped through it, and asked, "Director Lou, should I also read more of this kind of book?"

At the beginning, Sister Hong said that this was a big production with an investment of 10 million, but this was not accurate.

Later, I learned that this 10 million is only the investment of Shanghai Film Studio, and there is also the investment of French film companies, it is said that this figure is not less than 20 million, which means that the total investment of this film is as high as more than 30 million. is equivalent to the investment of ten "Conquest", which makes He Xin a little honestly afraid.

"It doesn't matter!"

Lou Huohua's answer made him stunned.

Before filming "The Little Tailor" before, Dai Sijie asked him to read more books about educated youth in that era, including his teachers in class, who often said that if you want to play a role well, you must understand the background of the character, and it is best to experience life.

How did it become indifferent to Lou Huohua here? This made him a little incomprehensible.

"What do you drink?"

"Oh, tea. ”

Lou Huohua opened the drawer and rummaged through it, and said with a smile: "Look at me, I forgot that there is no tea." ”

"It's okay, plain water is fine. He Xin said busily.

Lou Huohua stopped walking outside, actually stood in place and thought about it seriously, shook his head and said, "No, there are many people coming and going here, and it's not good to have no tea." ”

As he spoke, he pushed open the door and called a young girl in the office next door, and whispered a few words. After a while, the girl brought a bag of tea and helped make a cup of tea for He Xin.

"Thank you!"
