69. The market does not need talent, as long as the admission rate
Lao Cao drove a very ordinary Fukang hatchback, which was very different from the flamboyant imported car of Mao Dongyang before, and his driving style was also extremely steady and peaceful, and he spoke the same as him: "How do you feel about the current art college entrance examination?" ”
This is the content that Wan Chengsheng listened to the most when he followed Lao Cao to the bar, and Lao Tong and his gang took the lead in making various admissions exams a mess, which is one of the main topics.
So Wan Changsheng didn't think it was a test of himself, he also thought about it: "I heard them say it in the bar last time...... I don't feel deeply, in fact, before I came here to ask you to be admitted to the Academy of Fine Arts, I didn't know that there was such an academy, the system, the reform, I didn't understand, and I wasn't interested, but this time I went out to lecture, I had a feeling that I didn't know if it was accurate. ”
Lao Cao nodded: "You say." ”
Wan Changsheng did not follow Du Wen's reminder: "The number of people trained in Damei is not much, and more than 200 people feel that it is not obvious, but when I go to this training institution in Fujian, the feeling is very clear, in the huge classroom of thousands of people, everyone is basically carved out of a mold, just the difference between good and bad degrees, not to mention the difference in style, almost all of them are towards how best how to come, including me, the guidance and teaching, but also to find the most suitable plan for the exam to summarize and get closer, I used to teach Du Wen only one person when I didn't think, I haven't seen the results of teaching the whole Damei cram school, but in front of so many people, I found that they have become a climate, and I just vaguely feel that there seems to be something wrong with this, but I can't say the specifics. ”
Lao Cao's little eyes lit up: "Standard parts, right?" This is the product of the standard test-taking test that has been cultivated in order to prepare for the exam, isn't that how it feels? ”
Wan Changsheng nodded violently: "Yes, yes, that's what it means, I personally am more anti-induction exams, I actually got good results in the college entrance examination after graduating from high school, but I just dislike it...... Hehe, at that time, I didn't have any ideas about going to university, mainly because I thought that I had seen through this imperial examination-like pattern in the countryside, so I stayed at home sourly. ”
Lao Cao smiled: "But not everyone has the capital to stay at home...... Let's put it this way, the Academy of Fine Arts used to have an attached middle school, which was to recruit children who showed artistic talent from an early age, and began to cultivate after graduating from junior high school, generally speaking, it is a bit similar to the road of art that you entered the art road early, such as Zhao Leilei, Lao Tong, well, that day you saw more than half of them grew up from the attached middle school, I didn't know that there was a high school attached to it, but this road was abandoned more than ten or twenty years ago. ”
Wan Changsheng was surprised: "Why? ”
Lao Cao explained: "The art success rate of the attached high school is quite high, and it is very difficult to get in, and now the admission rate of the Academy of Fine Arts is ten to one, dozens to one, and the enrollment of the attached high school is usually two or three hundred to one, and those who can be recruited are indeed good seedlings who have a talent for art early, but this kind of children with excellent artistic talent often have a problem that they are biased, and at a stage similar to high school, they have begun to impact the personality in the field of art, and their cultural performance will definitely be behind that of ordinary high schools, after all, they have to spend more than half of their time in the professional field. is different from high school students who only study culture and face the college entrance examination, so when they stand in front of the college entrance examination with ordinary high school students, they have extremely high professional scores, but the college entrance examination pass rate is very low, which leads to many good seedlings in the attached middle school, but they cannot be admitted to the Academy of Fine Arts. ”
Wan Changsheng was dumbfounded: "Will this happen?" ”
Lao Cao nodded: "The reality is like this, the top students in the professional art examination every time are all these attached middle school students, their professional pass rate is basically 100%, but only 50% or even twenty or thirty percent of the college entrance examination passes, so as a parent, are you willing to send your child to the attached middle school?" Moreover, since more than 10 years ago, art academies have become a hot spot for examinations, and various training schools have been able to narrow the professional gap in a short period of time with this kind of intensive tutoring, and the significance of the existence of the attached middle school is getting smaller and smaller. ”
Wan Changsheng had never thought about such a thing: "And then? ”
Lao Cao shook his head: "The attached middle school was canceled more than ten or twenty years ago, because it could not recruit students, so since then, almost all the enrollment of art colleges and universities has been through the standard parts of short-term training such as training schools, and any child who is interested in art does not need to study in advance, but because it is easy to study bad things because it affects culture or goes the wrong way because of early learning, it is easy to start short-term training in the winter and summer vacations in the first year of high school, and then increase the density of weekend training in the second year of high school, and the third year of high school has been out of work for half a year to strengthen the assault, and finally go back to take the college entrance examination, Such a blank piece of paper is easy to draw, and even when to start learning to exert force has become a standard process, except for you...... Well, and Xiao Du. ”
Wan Changsheng suddenly realized: "No wonder the cram students in the training school are all of the same level, no wonder they all seem to be carved out of a mold." ”
Lao Cao smiled: "But art is not a standard part, this kind of short-term intensive assault training students, even after entering the university, their stamina will be insufficient, of course, the best of them can still stand out, but Zhao Leilei knows exactly what he wants to do before entering the university, almost extinct, you are the only one we have seen similar in the past ten years." ”
Wan Changsheng woke up like a dream: "No wonder Mr. Su said that it is not easy to find someone who is young and has a certain level of sketching skills, maybe this is also the reason?" ”
Lao Cao nodded: "In order to keep the attached middle school, I thought of a lot of ways, to send the top students of the attached middle school, to reduce the difficulty of the college entrance examination, etc., but this will produce some recruitment drawbacks, so it is meaningless to blindly criticize the system or enrollment model, people with brains will find ways to promote change in the existing situation, this is the original intention of several teachers in the school a few years ago to partner with the Damei training school, to explore whether there is any way to improve." ”
Wan Changsheng already roughly knew the answer: "What is the result?" ”
Lao Cao looked at him: "Because we have strong professors and teachers, we have an advantage in top-notch students, but in this era, what we want is the admission rate and success rate, and parents will not listen to the promise that there is more potential in the future, they want to be admitted to the Academy of Fine Arts immediately, now, and immediately, so making money can't be our main purpose, right?" ”
Wan Changsheng smiled: "What you said is really promising. ”
Lao Cao confirmed: "How about it, my purpose is to let you try it, under the premise of ensuring the promotion rate on my side, you try to guide the development of the talent of cram students, after all, this kind of thing, I can't spend a lot of money to ask Zhao Leilei to do it, I also want to paint and my own teaching tasks in the university, as long as you are admitted to the university, it will be regarded as a work-study, come over every weekend to lead the class, usually properly familiarize yourself with the situation, generally speaking, it is to assist me as an assistant, you don't have to spend money to fall in love." ”
Wan Changsheng really has the cunning of a philistine: "I don't dare to fully agree to you to come and lead classes every weekend, I am sure that I am more interested in being able to walk around through lectures, but you take care of me so much, and also introduce me to cooperate with Teacher Su, I will definitely do my best, originally I didn't have too many expectations for going to college, but now I find that teaching cram students is indeed a bit interesting, I try to come first, instead of patting my chest and not being able to do it when the time comes, okay?" ”
Lao Cao smiled and nodded: "Okay, I originally said that it would not delay you to make money, and I still have to figure out how to use the banner to open this kind of sketch class, try to lengthen the age group as much as possible, and the enrollment is very troublesome, you think that you will sneak in by yourself like you and Xiao Du." ”
Wan Changsheng said casually: "Teacher Su's mode of teaching and publishing books I think is good, he said that this is called personal packaging." ”
Lao Cao thought thoughtfully, raised his eyes and pointed to the side of the road: "Okay, I won't delay you, it's really rare......"
Wan Changsheng had already seen it, on the bright front door of various restaurants at the intersection opposite the creative park, around ten o'clock was the most lively and noisy time for the business of various restaurants, and in front of the boiling background, Du Wen was wearing a black jacket and a black mask in anticipation, which must have left a deep impression on both artists.
It is with this keen perception that artists can make art.
