As one of the best drama universities in China, Longcheng Royal Peking Opera University has a special entrance examination in early July in addition to the national unified recruitment examination in early March every year, which is specially conducted for irregular high school graduates.

The special recruitment at the beginning of July is mainly aimed at those who have studied opera with opera troupes or masters since childhood, have a strong interest in Peking Opera, and have entered the society to engage in Peking Opera art and other groups.

The age of candidates for special recruitment has also been slightly relaxed, the lower limit has been relaxed to 15 years old, and the upper limit has been relaxed to 30 years old. There is a special recruitment once a year, and the number of places varies according to the specific situation, but it is usually around 15 people.

After Cheng Xiaolou and his entourage went to Longcheng to find a place to settle down, they went to the Royal Peking Opera University to apply for the special entrance examination as soon as possible.

The third day of the seventh month.

Wearing a simple pair of ripped jeans, a pure white T-shirt and an equally simple baseball cap, he arrived at the special entrance examination site of the Royal Peking Opera University before eight o'clock.

"No, why are there so many people, haven't you heard that there are only twelve special recruitment places this year?"

Originally, he thought that he had come early enough, but when he arrived at the special entrance examination site of the Royal Peking Opera University, he found that there were more than hundreds of people waiting in line at the entrance of the art building.

At a glance, there are some small flowers, and the musicians with flower faces are dressed as musicians. Judging from the costumes, there are the most people in the two walks of life and Dan, and the least number of people who are ugly, and there are some musicians who carry Jinghu on their backs, so they must also be here to take the special recruitment exam.

Cheng Xiaolou found that many people were wearing their own costumes, and a small number of people even dressed up, but there were not many people like him who wore regular clothes.

Junjie refers to the application of pastel and light eyebrow on the basis of the actor's own facial background, which changes the original appearance, highlights the visual color of the eyebrows, eyes, lips, and cheeks, and shows the handsome momentum of the character. Compared with the clean and ugly large and small "flower noodles", it is also called "plain noodles" or "clean noodles".

Over the past month or so, Cheng Xiaolou has become more and more aware of his appearance, and the incident that happened at the Longzhong Liyuan Summit Qualifiers, he was afraid that others would recognize him, so he specially dressed up in a low-key manner when he went out today.

When he arrived here, he found that he was too worried at all, and the little students who were waiting for the special recruitment assessment on the scene looked more handsome and beautiful than one after another, and he looked inconspicuous among hundreds of candidates.

However, this also made Cheng Xiaolou secretly relieved, at least he didn't have to worry about someone recognizing him and causing unnecessary trouble.

The official assessment time is half past eight in the morning, and there is still nearly half an hour to go.

He lowered the brim of his hat a little and stood in the crowd waiting quietly, while pricking up his ears to listen carefully to the chats of the other candidates around him.

"I heard that this year's special recruitment exam is much more difficult than the previous two years, and it is estimated that the first round of basic skills will be brushed down by seventy or eighty percent of candidates. ”

As soon as Cheng Xiaolou stood still, he heard the young man in front of him wearing a turquoise robe and costume, holding a folding fan in his hand, and a typical fan in his hand, whispering to the person next to him.

"I've also heard that this year, more than 1,500 people have signed up for Peking Opera performances, and more than 2,000 people have applied for musicians and other majors, and there are only 12 places for special recruitment. ”

The man next to Fan Zisheng also sighed softly, and said with a very unconfident sigh.

"2,000 people compete for 12 places, which is almost 170 to 1, which seems to be really difficult. ”

Cheng Xiaolou raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and his mood couldn't help but feel a little heavy, the ratio of 170 to 1 is not an exaggeration to describe it as low and outrageous, but it is a real sense of thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge.

As soon as the so-called connoisseur makes a move, he will know if there is one. Those who are truly meritorious can be glimpsed from the subtleties such as body shape, pace, eyebrows, eyes, and waist.

The real Peking Opera everyone and the newcomers who are just starting out on the stage stand on the stage at the same time, and you can see the gap at a glance from the temperament alone.

Cheng Xiaolou had been in the pear orchard for decades in his previous life, and he had read countless people, so he could naturally see that most of the people who participated in the special recruitment examination on the scene were not easy people.

In fact, after thinking about it, you can understand that knowing the low acceptance rate of the special entrance examination of the Royal Peking Opera University, these people still dare to apply for the examination, and naturally they have enough confidence in themselves.

Those who lack confidence don't even have the courage to sign up for the special entrance exam.

Therefore, this 170-to-1 acceptance rate is a real best of the best, a real master's move.

Cheng Xiaolou doesn't even have to guess to know that many of these candidates on the scene may be the pillars of their respective drama troupes, and some may have become corners in the local area, with countless followers.

Moreover, no matter what world you are in, no matter what industry you are in, there is no such thing as absolute fairness.

Therefore, in Cheng Xiaolou's opinion, if there are really only twelve places in this special recruitment, then there may not even be ten places for them to compete for.

"If you can't even pass the special recruitment assessment of the Royal Peking Opera University, then how can you talk about inheriting the art of Peking Opera on the earth, it is better to go home as soon as possible to wash and sleep. ”

After listening to the chatting and conversation of the other candidates around him for a while, Cheng Xiaolou suddenly raised the corners of his mouth self-deprecatingly, pressed the brim of his hat and calmed down again and waited for the assessment to begin.

Perhaps this special recruitment assessment is difficult for others, and the low acceptance rate is outrageous, but he has absolute confidence and certainty to be successfully admitted to the Royal Peking Opera University.

If you can't get into the inheritance of Peking Opera in the world, plus decades of precipitation and experience in Liyuan, in Cheng Xiaolou's opinion, this special recruitment will simply not recruit anyone.

Because if he can't even pass the exam, I'm afraid that only a very small number of people who have ascended to the altar in the entire Huaguo pear orchard will be admitted.

At 8:30, the door of the art building opened on time, and under the guidance of the school staff, the candidates who participated in the special recruitment entered the building in an orderly manner according to the examination number to start the first round of basic skills assessment.

There is only a brief introduction to the content of each round of assessment on the assessment instructions, for example, the basic skills of the first round of the test Xiaolou is clear, but if you want to ask him what the content is, then he will be confused.

"The speed of the first round of assessment is too fast......

When I saw the first batch of twenty people who went in for less than three minutes, they all retreated, and the second group of people who had been waiting for a long time entered quickly for the first time, even if Cheng Xiaolou was confident that he would be able to be admitted, he still couldn't help but be secretly shocked when he saw this scene, and he had a more intuitive understanding of the difficulty coefficient of this special assessment.
