Chapter 25: Ten Rules

"Of course not," Xiao Yao shook his head, "This poem was written a few days ago. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoIt was the day of the second test list, and I saw that some candidates cried on the spot after seeing that there was no name on the list, and I wrote this poem with emotion. Actually, it's okay to write about this on this occasion today. Most of the ten candidates in our group will not be able to enter the Shenju in the end, so there is nothing wrong with letting everyone's mentality be positive. ā€

"So you wrote this poem for them?" Zhao Xinghua pointed to the candidates next to him.

"And myself. Xiao Yao nodded and said, "When we take the exam, we should naturally be full of confidence and believe that we can pass the exam, but after the results come out, there will inevitably be disappointed." Whoever it is, I don't want him to be discouraged by failure, keep hope and dreams, and keep trying. ā€

"You just said that talent is more important than hard work, and now you say that you want people to experience failure and don't give up, and you have to continue to work hard, don't you feel a little contradictory?" Zhao Xinghua looked at Xiao Yao and said.

"Uh..." Xiao Yao was a little speechless when Zhao Xinghua asked, and after thinking about it, Xiao Yao continued, "Human beings are originally a contradiction, but I don't feel contradictory on this. Talent is more important than hard work, but that doesn't mean hard work isn't important. It's hard to succeed if you don't work hard. Candidates who can enter the third test, I think at least their talent in this area should not be bad. Even if they are eliminated, I don't think it's probably because of talent. ā€

"My brain is really fast," Zhao Xinghua nodded with a smile.

"Finally, let's talk about this music of yours," Zhao Xinghua added, "I don't know much about electronic music, old man, and I haven't seen this thing you just played." But I think the tune you just played is very different from the kind of electronic music in nightclubs that I saw on TV, and when I heard the back, I actually had a desolate feeling of dead vines and old trees in ancient poems, and you wrote this tune yourself?"

"Well," Xiao Yao nodded, "this is a piece I wrote, called 'Odysseus Under the Old Tree', Odysseus Under the Old Tree." In fact, electronic music is not only the noisy and noisy in nightclubs, and I don't really like the ones in nightclubs. What I like and create is the genre that I just played. ā€

"Odysseus?" Zhao Xinghua said with a slight surprise, "In other words, this piece of yours was inspired by the Odyssey in Homer's Epic?

"Yes. Xiao Yao nodded.

The song Xiao Yao played just now was born from KOAN's "odysseusundertheoldtree" in his previous life, but the original version was more than nine minutes, and Xiao Yao didn't remember it completely, so he could only add his own adaptation to the rhythms and melodies he remembered. In this life, he read more miscellaneous books, and knew that Odysseus was the protagonist of the "Odyssey" in the "Homeric Epic", and this song by KOAN must also have some connection with the "Odyssey", so he found the "Homeric Epic" and read it, felt the difficult return of Odysseus after the Trojan War, and finally completed this more than six-minute electronic music.

"No wonder... Very good!" Zhao Xinghua nodded, "The talent show is over, you can pack up your things and stand back first, and it will be the second exam soon." He has also read "Homer's Epic", so he naturally knows which part of "Odyssey" comes from the desolate feeling in Xiao Yao's song, no wonder there is a feeling of withered vines and old trees in ancient Chinese poems.

picked up the pen and wrote on Xiao Yao's registration form for a while, and saw that Xiao Yao had already packed up the four treasures of the study and the pads and stood back in the team, Zhao Xinghua opened his mouth and said to the candidates: "The following test is a collective creation sketch, you can freely combine it into three groups in a three, three, or four way, and then come to me to draw the questions." ā€

This time, Zhao Xinghua didn't pick Xiao Yao out alone like the teacher He in the second test, and Lin Qisan and Nina were both present, so the three of them stood together tacitly without hesitation in the grouping, formed a small circle, and began to discuss who to let the examiner draw the exam questions. The other candidates also saw that the three of them were together, and no one forced them to make up for the group of three.

The candidates in the third test have all experienced the second test, and they know that the examiners are also observing their performance when they are free to group, so they quickly divided into three groups and went to the examiners to draw the exam questions.

Xiao Yao's group of three people finally sent the only girl Nina to the examiner to draw the question, and after coming back, Nina told the two with a wry smile that the question she drew was called: Meet the parents!

Xiao Yao smiled at first: "This examiner teacher didn't mean it, right? Knowing that the two of you are a couple, he deliberately gave us such a question." This is for the two of you to prepare for in advance. ā€

Lin Qisan and Nina were a little embarrassed and didn't know how to answer Xiao Yao.

"Okay, since the two of you are a couple, then only I will play the parent. Xiao Yao said, took off his coat and the white long-sleeved shirt inside, and spread the long-sleeved shirt on the ground.

"What are you doing?" Lin Qisan and Nina said at the same time.

"Prepare props. Xiao Yao took out the brush and ink from the bag again, pulled the two of them and said, "You two also squat down and help me cover the point, and I will also tell you the plot by the way." ā€

"You have even thought about the plot now?" Lin Qisan squatted down with a smile and said, "Yes, Duo'er has already pulled you to meet Uncle Sun and Aunt Sun, right? ā€

"No," Xiao Yao shook his head and said, "We grew up together, do we still need to meet our parents? But isn't that what it takes to meet our parents, we mainly want to come up with something new and make something fun." ā€

"That's what you're talking about?" Lin Qisan pointed to Xiao Yao's long-sleeved shirt spread on the ground.

"Of course. Xiao Yao said to the two, "If you want to laugh, you should laugh first, and don't laugh when you play for a while!"

For the second group sketch, although Lin Qisan did not ask for it again, Zhao Xinghua still put Xiao Yao and their group in the final test.

In the second test, most of the performance tests are scene questions, which belong to the category of non-physical performances, and do not require a plot. The performance questions of the three tests have basically become event-based questions, and candidates need to create their own plots. In addition to the basic skills of acting, it is also a test of the candidate's creative ability, which is naturally much more difficult.

Therefore, the second round of proposition collective sketch performance is naturally much less exciting than the first round of talent show. The questions drawn by the candidates in the first two groups were "Golden Cicada Shelling" and "Indiscriminate Filling", and the performances of the seven people were good and bad, but overall, there was no performance that made the examiner feel particularly surprised. But this is normal, it was originally an exam for the acting department, if there is really that kind of anti-heaven acting skills that even the examiners can shock, there is no need to come to the drama school to study acting.

In the end, Xiao Yao's group played a similar role in performance. Although Xiao Yao won the Feitian Award for Best Newcomer, his acting skills have been affirmed to a certain extent, but when he first played that role, it took a long time, wrote a long character biography, and put in a lot of hard work. Now there are only a few minutes of preparation time in the examination room, not to mention writing character biographies, it would be good to be able to conceive the plot well, where can I dig into the prescribed situation and experience the characters?

However, where Xiao Yao is there, there will naturally be no lack of highlights.

In the first part of their group of sketches, the performance of the three can be said to be decent, whether it is the apprehension of Lin Qisan and Nina, the young couple, when they meet their parents, or the entanglement in the heart of the girl's father played by Xiao Yao, it can be regarded as a relatively obvious expression. Moreover, the non-physical performances of Lin Qisan and Nina carrying things to open the door and enter the house, and Xiao Yao serving water to entertain guests, also showed the good basic performance skills of the three of them.

The evaluation of this performance can barely be regarded as middle and upper, and the examiners nodded at most, and there was nothing special to say, and the other two groups of candidates who had finished the performance were also secretly relieved to see it.

However, when it came to the end of the sketch, whether it was the examiner or the candidate, many people couldn't help but laugh at Xiao Yao and their group in the end.

"Since you're here, let's stay and eat. Xiao Yao said to Lin Qisan with a hint of reluctance in his expression, and stood up from the chair simulated by the scene block as he spoke.

"Uncle, don't bother, I'll invite you out to eat. Lin Qisan immediately pulled out the arm that Nina was holding, and also stood up and said.

"If you say you eat at home, you eat it at home. Xiao Yao glared at Lin Qisan and said.

"Then I'll help you. Lin Qisan immediately said again.

"Do you know how to cook?" Xiao Yao asked.

"Uh... No, but I can give you a hand. Lin Qisan touched his hair awkwardly and said.

"Then you might as well sit down. Xiao Yao glanced at Lin Qisan and said.

Then, Xiao Yao took off his coat, turned around and deliberately walked slowly to the non-existent kitchen.

"Huh~ Why are there so many words on the back of my dad's clothes? I don't think I've ever seen him have this kind of clothes?"

Lin Qisan also looked at Xiao Yao's back curiously, and then unconsciously whispered:

"10 rules for falling in love with my daughter:

1. Have a serious job;

2. Make it clear that I don't like you;

3. I may appear at any time;

4. You can't fool me;

5. If you bully her, I will clean you up;

6. Do not split legs, do not leave spare tires;

7. Know an orthopedic surgeon;

8. I'm not afraid of going to jail;

9. Can do housework, she is my princess, not your nanny;

10. How you do to her, how I do to you. ā€

When Lin Qisan first started reading, his tone and expression were curious, but the further back he went, the more nervous and embarrassed the expression on his face became, and then his eyes widened with a slight tremble, until he read the last one, he was slightly relieved.

Nina's expression was surprised at first, but at the end, her eyes were full of emotion and attachment.

As the audience, the examiners and candidates looked at each other from the beginning, and finally listened with smiles on their faces.

"Did you come up with these ten sentences on the spot?" Xiao Yao asked with a smile after their performance. The proposition performance of the third test of the performance department mainly tests the candidate's on-site creative ability, and the ten sentences are undoubtedly the biggest highlight in this round of exams.

"He came up with it. Lin Qisan pointed at Xiao Yao and said, "The words on the clothes are also what he just wrote." ā€

When he saw the title of the sketch, Xiao Yao immediately remembered the ten sentences on a photo that had gone viral on the Internet in his previous life. The photo shows a foreign father, also written in English, and there is also a Chinese translation after it spread in China. Since this original photo has not been circulated in this world, Xiao Yao did not directly use any version of the Chinese translation, but made some localized modifications himself, not only changing the lawyer to a doctor, but also using the words "split legs" and "spare tire".

"Teacher He, I think you should also have one for Xiao Yao's clothes. An examiner next to him smiled teasingly and said to Teacher He, who had a daughter.

"It seems like I should have prepared one. Teacher He touched his chin and smiled, then really took out his mobile phone and looked at Xiao Yao and said, "I don't have your good memory, can you turn around and let me take a picture of the words on your clothes, and I will make one myself when I go back." ā€
