Early the next morning, Li Qian accompanied Wang Jinglu to take the exam of the acting department.

As usual, I queued up again, waiting to receive the admission ticket, and continued to wait after receiving the admission ticket. Only this time, while waiting for the exam to start, the two ran to see the exam results posted by the photography department.

On the few pieces of paper that were printed, Li Qian successfully found his admission ticket number and name.

Surrounded by many candidates with lowered eyebrows and disappointed faces.

But they don't get too discouraged, because the art exam season has just begun, and then they will go to the entrance exams of many of these art schools - every year from April, there will be many people who run through this school until they are accepted into one of them. There are even many people who will not be able to pass the exam this year and come back next year!

Wang Jinglu smiled happily, as if she had passed the test herself.

And then, Li Qian was replaced to send her into the examination room.

Miraculously, after Wang Jing revealed it, he said that the exam questions of the acting department were exactly the same as those of the photography department.

Then, just like when they answered on the roof of the building, the two of them analyzed whether Wang Jinglu's answer could pass the test - it turned out that they were too worried, and when the results came out the next day, Wang Jinglu also successfully entered the next round.

In the morning, it was Wang Jinglu's examination, and in the afternoon, it was Li Qian's turn.

Only this time, only about 200 people were left to take the exam in the photography department.

Then, in the largest film room of the film school, two hundred people sat down in a mess, watching movies and writing film reviews.

…………

April 23rd, Suncheon Film Academy.

With the sharp decrease in the number of exams, the progress of the exam suddenly accelerated on the 19th and 20th, and when the big list on the 21st was posted, no matter which major you applied for, there were basically only about 100 people left in the shortlist.

Together, there are only seven or eight hundred people on that big list.

Li Qian and Wang Jinglu were all on the list without any danger.

The next interview. The progress will slow down again, because although the film school organizes the exam for all candidates according to the different majors they apply for, it is said that each candidate has five to ten minutes to do so. As you can imagine, you can't get up fast if you want to.

Li Qian's photography department is divided into the first category for interviews.

Wang Jinglu's directing department is divided into the third category for interviews.

This time, none of them could accompany anyone. You can only go to the queue separately.

Standing in the crowd waiting for the exam, Li Qian had no intention of paying attention to what the people around him were talking about, he just silently recalled the recordings he had completed in the past two days, and calculated his next itinerary - in fact, although Wang Jinglu asked him to sign up at the Huaxia Drama Academy at the same time from the beginning, he still refused after thinking about it. It's not that I don't want to add this double insurance, it's just that the School of Drama doesn't have a separate photography department, and Li Qian is really not so interested in the directing department.

Of course, for Wang Jinglu to pass two levels in the Drama Academy. also successfully entered the final interview, Li Qian is still very happy for her - she is different from Li Qian, double insurance is only good for her.

…………

Li Qian's admission ticket number was relatively high, so it was his turn at three o'clock in the afternoon.

The large practice room was empty, except for a few long tables lined up on the side of the mirror, behind which sat a row of examiners in different postures.

Three men and two women, a total of five people.

The older one looks like he's in his sixties, and the youngest one. I guess I'm in my early thirties.

A large room like this, and such an empty room, is already easy to subconsciously feel nervous, not to mention that this is still an interview. What's more, when the candidate walks in and faces the examiner, there is the big mirror opposite, and he can see his every move!

For candidates who are already a little nervous, this is definitely an exam environment that will definitely make people more and more nervous the more they look at it.

Li Qian walked in with a folk guitar lent to him by Liao Liao, bowed down to the examiners and said "Hello teacher", and then stood up expressionlessly.

The youngest examiner sitting on the edge picked up Li Qian's admission ticket on the table. Asked: "Li Qian, from Jinan?"

Li Qian nodded and replied, "Yes." ”

Then, he took out three photos from the candidate's bag, and without looking at them himself, he handed them to the side.

The three photographs were passed through in the hands of the remaining four people, and finally returned to the young examiner.

Li Qian noticed that the female examiner sitting in the second place in the south looked at it the most.

The young examiner took the photos, glanced at each one twice, and then handed them over, and in the end, as expected, the photos fell back into the hands of the female examiner.

She looked at them one by one, looked up with a smile, looked at Li Qian, and said, "We are allowed to show talent in this interview, are you going to play the guitar and sing?"

Li Qian smiled and said, "I thought about it and thought I would do it too." ”

The female examiner smiled again and said, "Then you start!"

Li Qian picked up the guitar and began to play the prelude - the song was chosen by Wang Jinglu, and she asked Li Qian to sing the song he wrote to herself on such an important occasion, "When You Are Old".

This lyric is the work of the English poet Yeats, and of course the examiners know it, which is different from works such as "Persistence" that have only recently become popular. No matter how popular your song is, it is hard to guarantee that the professors in the college have not heard it. But "When You're Old", they must know that in the tune with the folk style, Wang Jinglu analyzed that when Li Qian finished singing, they must ask who composed the song, and when the time comes, Li Qian said that he composed the music, which will not immediately add points?

So, Li Qian obediently carried out her design.

As soon as he opened his mouth, sure enough, several examiners looked slightly moved, obviously, they all knew the poem.

Then, the tune of this song is enough to match this poem, and Li Qian's current experience also allows him to sing a gurgling ballad to a beautiful level, at this level, the two examiners immediately nodded their heads.

After singing earnestly, Li Qian put down the guitar and memorized it again.

The young examiner sitting at the edge of the room asked, "Is this Yeats's poem?" I haven't heard of anyone composing the music for his poem, whose music is it?"

Li Qian said calmly: "This is a piece I wrote myself. ”

After brushing it, it really feels different.

The five of them looked up at Li Qian in unison.

Only the one sitting in the middle, although he also looked up, but soon, he looked down at a document in his hand—hmm. Li Qian's eyes were sharp, and he looked like an exam paper.

At this time, the female examiner suddenly picked up the three photos on the table and asked, "I saw your work." Can you tell me what you thought when you took these photos?"

Hearing this, Li Qian tried to think about it for a moment, and said helplessly: "I thought at the time, you set up all the lights before we let us shoot, and there are still people staring." The examiners have to look at hundreds of photos that are almost the same in one day, which is ...... I'm curious how you guys can tell who is talented and who isn't. ”

As soon as he said this, several examiners on the scene immediately grinned.

The female examiner smiled and said, "Don't doubt it, don't be curious, I've been doing this for 30 years, if I can't see something at a glance, haven't I done it in vain for so many years?"

Li Qian shrugged his shoulders and wanted to ask, "Then do you think I'm okay?" After thinking about it, I didn't dare to ask.

But at this time, the examiner sitting in the middle suddenly spoke, he raised his head, looked at Li Qian seriously, and asked, "Have you been exposed to French films?"

Li Qian thought for a while and replied: "Very little, the situation in our country, except for Hollywood films, is not easy to access." ”

The examiner, who looked to be about sixty years old, suddenly picked up the paper in his hand and shook it. Then he said: "If you haven't been exposed to French movies, the idea of this planet of the apes is what you think of?"

It was indeed the exam paper from the first session before.

And looking at this meaning, it should be Li Qian's.

But. If you really want to talk about the idea of the planet of the apes, of course Li Qian originally knew it from American movies, but he likes to get to the bottom of things, so he looked everywhere for the setting of the planet of the apes, and then, at that time, he found a few French movies as early as the fifties and sixties. As a result, I learned that the later series of Hollywood had been completed in the hands of French filmmakers decades ago, and they had also been made into a logical science fiction series.

Of course, after coming to this time and space, Li Qian's contact with movies is still too narrow, so he is not sure whether French filmmakers in this time and space have already created in this area, and he doesn't even know if there are similar creations in Hollywood.

However, it is precisely because of such a little knowledge that as early as when the other party first mentioned French movies, Li Qian was already very sensitive to it, presumably in this time and space, French filmmakers have already made this series.

So, Li Qian thought about it, and finally replied honestly: "I have a friend, he is a screenwriter, once chatted, I happened to hear him mention that there was a science fiction movie with a similar theme in France in the fifties, and we talked about it at the time. ”

The examiner raised his eyebrows when he heard this, nodded, and said, "You are honest." ”

But at this time, the younger examiner asked curiously: "At your age, you actually know a friend who is a screenwriter?

Li Qian shook his head, "No." It's really just a simple friend. ”

When the examiner heard this, he showed a disbelieving expression on his face and asked, "Can you tell me the name of your friend?" I am also a screenwriter, so maybe I can meet him. As far as I know, there are not many people in our country who have studied French cinema and can even study and notice that film. ”

When Li Qian heard this, he had no choice but to say: "His surname is Cao, and his name is Cao Zhan." ”

As soon as these words came out, the five examiners actually showed a look of sudden realization in unison.

The young examiner nodded and said with a smile: "It's Lao Cao, then it's no wonder! ”

But at this time, the examiner sitting in the middle suddenly said: "Your friends won't give you extra points, Cao Zhan has friends here in the film academy, but there are more enemies!"

Li Qian grinned and said, "I believe that the teachers will definitely judge the marks fairly." ”

When the examiner heard this, he suddenly laughed and said, "I have read your test papers and photos, you go to the photography department, it is a bit of a waste of talents, think about it, come to the directing department!"

As soon as he said this, the female examiner next to him immediately glared, "Hey, Dean Qian, you're too biased! He only applied for our photography department, so don't worry about Lao Zhou in the director department!"

When Dean Qian heard this, he was not moved at all, just smiled slightly, looked at Li Qian, and said solemnly: "As long as you agree, I will make up the file for you, and I will adjust the file for you, how about it?"

Li Qian thought about it, shook his head with a smile, and said, "I just want to be admitted to the photography department." ”

Hearing this, Dean Qian stared at him for a moment, then reluctantly withdrew his gaze and put down the test paper in his hand.

At this time, the female examiner looked at Li Qian with a smile and asked, "In addition to our film academy, have you applied to other schools?"

Li Qian shook his head and said, "I only applied for the photography department of Suncheon Film Academy." ”

The female examiner nodded with a smile when she heard this, and said, "Go back and prepare for the cultural class exam, don't let the cultural class drag you back!" and said, "Okay, your exam is over, you can go out." ”

Li Qian nodded, bowed, and walked out of the classroom in a daze.

Passing through the crowd waiting in line for the exam, he was about to walk out of this corridor, when his arm was suddenly grabbed, and then, an excited and apprehensive face appeared in front of him, and the man asked, "Dude, how did you do in the exam? They all said that the examiner was very serious, is it true? It's scary, right?"

"Serious?" Li Qian was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and asked, "Who told you that the examiner is very serious?"

At this time, two people next to him suddenly asked in unison: "We have just come out of it! Why, isn't the examiner serious about you?"

In a trance, Li Qian seemed to understand something.

But when he thought about it, he felt that he hadn't really understood anything.

Counting on my fingers, three exams, the first written test, I also gave the idea of "Planet of the Apes", and the second one wrote a movie review, well, maybe my own insight is indeed much better than the really seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys and girls around me?

In short, the final result is that I seem to be very favored by those examiners?

After a pause, he looked at the concerned eyes around him, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "I just stared at that mirror when I went in, and I didn't notice what the examiners looked like......

As soon as he replied, everyone around him was immediately relieved.

"You're worse than me...... someone next to me said with a grin.

Li Qian shrugged, smiled, and got up to leave.

…………

Frankly speaking, in addition to the fact that the waiting time is too long, which will make Li Qian a little annoyed, the three exams that spanned several days really didn't bring Li Qian any big feeling, and then, unconsciously, the exam was over.

And, it seems that you did well in the exam?

But Wang Jinglu is not like this at all. After participating in the two interviews at the Film Academy and the Drama Academy, she couldn't help but complain in front of Li Qian over and over again-

"I think I did too badly in the interview, especially when I was at the drama school! You don't know, those teachers are all strained, and when I look at them, I am almost speechless! Fortunately, my talent show is the piano, and when I play the piano, I will not be so nervous, otherwise it will definitely be worse!"

But no matter what, the exam is over, and Li Qian and Wang Jinglu are not ready to apply for other art schools - if Li Qian can't get in, he will choose not to go to university, and if Wang Jinglu can't pass the exam, he will choose to give up the road of art and go to an ordinary school seriously. Well, if nothing else, she will choose a normal school and strive to become a teacher like Dad Li after graduation in the future.

Next, after finishing the art exam, Wang Jinglu went back to school to continue his classes, and Li Qian returned to the recording studio.

The recording of Liao Liao's second solo album "The Sound of the Waves Remains" has come to the final stage.
