Episode 184: The Last Lesson
Because Lin Xiyin was temporarily out on business, STELLA was stuck behind Zheng Xiyi all afternoon, and the acting class also sat below and listened, and took the initiative to come up to cooperate with the performance. LIM YUNA SADLY FOUND THAT STELLA'S ACTING TALENT IS VERY GOOD, ONE OF THESE TRAINEES IS COUNTED AS ONE, AND EVEN GAO YARA AND LEE YEON-HEE ARE NOT AS GOOD AS STELLA'S ACTING SKILLS.
Zheng Xiyi slightly praised STELLA, because the reason for STELLA's good acting skills is very simple, and he is familiar with it. The European and American education system has a variety of role-playing games since preschool, and there are drama clubs, opera clubs and other community organizations in primary schools, middle schools and universities, STELLA naturally has a deep interest in acting under the halo of Zheng Xiyi's genius brother, and has performed at least dozens of small theaters from preschool to junior high school graduation, although it is not a large-scale drama, mostly fairy tales and the like, and some classic fragments of Shakespeare, but where is the rich experience of these trainees who have only learned elementary acting courses can compare.
The reason why Zheng Xiyi finally let STELLA come up to show off is actually to crack down on these trainees, there are hundreds of brokerage companies in small South Korea, and it is an exaggeration to say that there are new IDOL debuts every day, but the trainees in large companies like S.M, YG, JYP have their own self-confidence and pride, which is the result of the company's heritage and culture. Zheng Xiyi wants to get rid of the so-called spirit of the children of a wealthy family, as an idol trainee, maybe they have enough capital to be proud, but as an actor prep, they are nothing, and they can't clearly understand this, Zheng Xiyi feels that no matter how much he teaches, it is in vain.
There are thousands of extras on Chungmu Road, each of them is impossible to be stronger than these trainees, but one out of every three will definitely be able to beat these trainees. Although Zheng Xiyi himself is from a serious professional background, if he is asked to choose actors, he prefers to choose those who are not from professional classes, because experience is more important than theory, and actors are not researchers, so there is a good use for solid theory.
Looking at the trainees whose morale was extremely low, Zheng Xiyi clapped his hands: "Do you think it's embarrassing to lose to a little girl like STELLA who has never received formal training?"
EVERYONE LOWERED THEIR HEADS AND WAS SILENT, EVEN GAO YALA AND LI YANXI LOWERED THEIR EYELIDS AND DIDN'T DARE TO MEET ZHENG XIYI'S GAZE, ONLY STELLA STOOD UP LIKE A PROUD LITTLE ROOSTER AND RAISED HIS HEAD TO STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD.
Zheng Xiyi walked to Lin Yun'er's position, bent down to look, but was blocked by the long hair, "Yo, is this already crying or is it in the process of preparing to cry nose?
Lin Yun'er raised her head suddenly, bit her lower lip and stared at Zheng Xiyi fiercely, although she hadn't cried yet, her eyes were really red.
"Teacher NIM, although it is true that we have bad grades, it is also wrong for you to say that Yun'er Oni. ”
Zheng Xiyi turned his head to look at it, and sure enough, it was Xu Xian, and his eyes were a little red, but his stubborn eyes and serious little face were still so righteous and awe-inspiring.
"Hehe," Zheng Xiyi smiled and walked back to the front, "I don't want to say any words of encouragement to you, because it doesn't make sense, go out and turn left to find a bookstore to buy a self-motivated book, it's better than me." I want you to remember this shame, yes, it's a shame, you lost to a prospective newcomer trainee who still has more than half a month to officially join the company! Maybe you will think, STELLA must have been with me since she was a child to have such a result, I admit that I have some influence on her, but it only made her interested in acting, and I am also the first time today to seriously check her talent and talent in acting. ”
CUI SIYUAN SECRETLY GLANCED AT STELLA A FEW TIMES IN SURPRISE, ZHENG XIYI WALKED UP TO STELLA AND TOUCHED HER HEAD DOTINGLY, STELLA SMILED AND LET HIM MESS UP HIS HAIRSTYLE, "EVERY TIME SHE GOES BACK TO THE UNITED STATES, SHE WILL SHOW OFF TO ME WHAT ROLE SHE PLAYED IN SCHOOL, THIS PRINCESS AND THAT PRINCE, THAT'S IT." It's true that she didn't have a complete and systematic acting education, but she put enough passion and time into practice, which is why she is better than you today, and why I am better than many people today. ”
"Some people will think, we are just here to be IDOL, not to be actors, but since I am teaching acting classes, I have to tell you, don't want to be lazy, don't think about getting by, I don't care what time you practice dancing every day, that's not the scope of my responsibility, I just want to see you practice your acting skills every day, because in the future, when you have the opportunity to become an actor, people will say that this guy has taken Zheng Xiyi's acting class before!"
"Yes, as you think, it's not a question of whether you lose face, it's a question of whether I lose face, I don't want anyone to point at you in the future and say, look, those guys were all taught by Zheng Xiyi, and the result is still only that face. Although this is a world of faces, this face is only a stepping stone for you to enter the entertainment industry, not your foundation. Of course, only being an IDOL and not being an actor can actually make money, be popular, and have tens of thousands of fans, but can you be an IDO for the rest of your life?"
Zheng Xiyi glanced at everyone, "It's actually a bit early to talk to you about this now, uh, it should be too early, but I don't know when I'm going to film, so I can't give you any more lessons, so I decided to say these words to you earlier, even if you may forget it in a month or two." ”
Everyone stood up in fear, bowed their heads and saluted in unison, "We will keep it in mind, Teacher Zheng Xiyi, NIM." ”
Zheng Xiyi smiled, clapped his hands and asked them to sit down, "It's okay, it's not a big deal to forget, I just want to have a clear conscience, of course it's a good thing that you can remember, and I won't lose anything if you can't remember." Although I seem to be easy-going, I'm actually a perfectionist, and you're pretty much the number one in Korea...... Oh no, second batch of students, so I'm just going to be harsher with you. ”
Lin Yun'er and Xu Xian clenched their fists with both hands, and they knew in their hearts that the first batch of students Zheng Xiyi was referring to were the two of them.
Seeing that everyone was sitting in danger and didn't dare to come out, Zheng Xiyi knew that the stick strategy had worked, and now was the time to give a candy, "You don't have to be too disappointed, it's normal for you to lose to STELLA now, how long have you been learning and how long have you practiced, this girl has played not a hundred but eighty roles, although it is just a child's game, but it is not something you can compare." As long as you practice hard and spend more time and energy, it is easy to reach her level, and it doesn't take long, she is actually just half a bucket of water. ”
Everyone sneered, and the tension in the room suddenly eased a lot, Stella wrinkled her nose at Zheng Xiyi, Zheng Xiyi ignored her, "The year-end exam is about to start, which is related to your performance for a year, so the acting class should also be suspended, and I don't force you to put much energy into acting during this time, or practice singing and dancing first." But next year, at the all-staff meeting before the Spring Festival, you need to perform a show collectively, as for what type and how to perform, that's your own business, I don't care, it will be your acting year-end exam, understand?"
Everyone nodded in response: "Understood, Teacher Zheng Xiyi, NIM." ”
Zheng Xiyi waved his hand and let these guys get out of class, and the others walked out of the practice room in twos and threes, only Lin Yun'er, Xu Xian and STELLA stayed, Zheng Xiyi looked at Lin Yun'er and Xu Xian, "Yun'er, Zhu Xuan, is there something wrong with the two of you?"
Lin Yun'er and Xu Xian glanced at each other, and suddenly saluted ninety degrees, "Teacher Zheng Xiyi, as your first batch of students, we didn't practice our acting skills well, I'm very sorry." ”
STELLA STARED AT THE TWO LITTLE GIRLS WHO WERE ABOUT HER AGE WITH WIDE EYES, THESE WERE THE FIRST BATCH OF STUDENTS OF XIYI'S OPPA?TWO LITTLE GIRLS?STELLA SLOWLY TURNED HER HEAD TO LOOK AT ZHENG XIYI, HER EYES BURNING, AND SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT SHE WAS THINKING.
Zheng Xiyi glanced at her and knew that this girl was actually jealous, so she stretched out her index finger and pointed at her forehead angrily, and then said to Lin Yun'er and Xu Xian: "Although you really didn't practice your acting skills well, it's not your fault, I don't have time to teach you seriously, so don't feel guilty." Maybe I still don't have time in the future, and your main focus should be on singing and dancing practice, and then you can seriously think about your acting skills after your debut. ”
"Huh?"
Lin Yun'er and Xu Xian raised their heads and looked at Zheng Xiyi in confusion, Teacher, you didn't say that just now!
Zheng Xiyi naturally knew what they were thinking, and said with a smile: "Although I don't know when to take over the next play, I shouldn't have too long a break, at most I should start taking the script after the Spring Festival, and then I won't be able to come to give you acting lessons, in order not to let you guys be too lax during this time, I will be a little stricter today." ”
“MO?”
Lin Yun'er and Xu Xian are both the same, it turns out that today is Zheng Xiyi's last acting class? The two of them looked at Zheng Xiyi blankly, their hearts were inexplicably a little sour, and their eyes turned red again.
Zheng Xiyi saw it and hurriedly stretched out his hand and waved it in front of their eyes, "Ah, it's not that I'm going to die, it's just that I can't teach you anymore, don't I still come to the company often? Don't make it look like I'm going to live and die, okay?"
Lin Yun'er froze for a moment, and slapped Zheng Xiyi's hand away, "Xiyi's OPPA is too bad! It's okay to scare people, I'm going to practice and won't play with you!"
Ignoring Xu Xian, he turned his head and rushed out of the practice room.
Xu Xian didn't care about her, just looked at Zheng Xiyi with big shining eyes, and looked at Zheng Xiyi more and more uncertainly, so he had to ask softly: "Zhu Xuan, is there anything else? ”
Xu Xian looked at him for a few more seconds, and then saluted respectfully, "I'm also going to practice, senior Zheng Xiyi, thank you for your guidance, goodbye." ”
After saying that, she also turned around and walked out of the practice room, Zheng Xiyi didn't know what this girl meant, so she could only watch Xu Xian push the door out.
"Huh, this ...... What the hell are these two girls going on?"
Zheng Xiyi scratched his head and muttered to himself, STELLA squinted at the door and looked at Zheng Xiyi, pouted and stepped on Zheng Xiyi, "I'm also going to find Ernie, goodbye, I'll coax the little girl's Xiyi OPPA!"
Zheng Xiyi was trampled by her, and shouted: "Ah, isn't it good for you?
