"Young man, taste is not good...... How can you come to me without ordering coffee? My lattes and pour-overs are classic. When the owner saw the two new customers, his tired eyes rejuvenated, but he was not satisfied with their orders, and wanted to boast about himself.

"No, just hot cocoa and coconut milk. Coconut milk should be served on the rocks. Zhong Buqun took out his mobile phone and paid the bill, while the shopkeeper prepared a drink with a slumped face.

What are you kidding, obviously he makes the best coffee!

It can be seen that the crux of the dismal business of this small shop lies in the owner's lack of self-knowledge.

Lu Panpan and Zhong Buqun found a seat at random and sat down. Lu Panpan took out the laptop he had been holding all the way just now, opened the interface of the official website, and showed Zhong Buqun the registration interface and the registration deadline.

"There's still nearly four hours to go, so let's sum it up."

"Actually, I suggest that we don't participate in the competition for the sake of conservatism." Zhong Buqun coughed to hide the panic in his heart, he really couldn't directly face Lu Panpan's burning and expectant gaze, "I know you want to participate, and I want to, but if we need to schedule a five-minute play in the preliminaries, what about the repertoire at the end of the term?" Usually punching in class, morning and evening exercises, can we still complete them with quality and quantity? Lu Panpan, let's not just pick up a five-minute drama catalog and play, we are going to participate. ”

"Participating in the competition means that we have to carefully pick every movement of the repertoire used on stage, strive to perfection, train hundreds or thousands of times before going on stage, and practice muscle memory. But even if this is the case, we may not be able to pass the pre-selection of the professional track. The seniors in the professional group, the content of the daily dance on the stage, drawing out an excerpt is enough to sign up for the competition, and they are more proficient than after our hard practice...... Once we lose, all the time and effort we put into it will be wasted. ”

"Besides, even if we encounter the worst and fail the competition and the application, and we can't join the National Dance Company in the first year, we have a lot of other big troupes to choose from. If you want to join these troupes, you must ensure that you have always achieved excellent results during your studies at the academy. What does it mean for us to give up our results and prepare for the race, have you ever thought about it? ”

Zhong Buqun made it clear to Lu Panpan what he hadn't said before. Lu Panpan listened to these cruel facts, obviously unable to accept them for a while, and his eyes were full of confusion.

Probably realizing that his words were serious, Zhong Buqun touched the tip of his nose and said slowly, "This time our qualification was cancelled, and I also have a lot of responsibility." You can say whatever you want, there's no one else in this café. ”

The meaning of these words is that he knows that Lu Panpan is blocking her heart at the moment, giving her the right to scold herself at will to vent her anger.

Boss:...... What does it mean to have no one else? Am I air?

In order to show his presence, the boss brought the prepared drink to the two.

"Thank you." Zhong Buqun and Lu Panpan took the drink and quickly regained their expression.

…… The presence of the boss may be there, but not much.

"I've thought about blaming you, too, but I'm not in the mood right now...... Are we just going to watch the registration deadline for the Seedlings Cup? Lu Panpan propped his chin, "Can you wait for me to digest what you said?" ”

"You two are going to the Seedlings Cup too?" The boss interjected coldly at this time, and Lu Panpan and Zhong Buqun were both stunned.

It is said that this boss is not a member of the school, but he didn't expect to know about these dance events.

"Yes, we were originally the recommenders of the ballet group of the academy......" Lu Panpan's mind was in turmoil, so he answered the words casually. Zhong Buqun originally wanted to remind her that there was no need to say more, but she said everything, so she had to look at her helplessly.

"Oh, the two pity good seedlings that Xiao Li told me are the two of you......" The boss sighed lightly, "It's really not worth it, good little friend, you have such a heavy heart to play, and you have been manipulated...... If you want to participate in the professional group, the five-minute repertoire is not short, the difficult part of the toe part is not to be emphasized, and the most difficult part of the double repertoire is the lift. ”

？！

How is this boss ...... Speaking of which, is it still the truth?

"Let me tell you, although this competition is not easy, it is better because of the high gold content. If you two really want to go, I can help you think of a strategy...... But this time you must learn a long lesson! Go to the bar at every turn, drink or something, let alone students, even if you already have a troupe, you will be deducted a hat! Remember, you're dancers and you're going on stage! At no time can you boast of high talent or ability, and you should not be too lax. As far as I know, there is never a professional dance company that smokes, drinks and falls in love all day. ”

Hey, the more the boss talks, the more energetic he becomes, not only to enthusiastically provide strategies, but also to teach people a lesson.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he pointed out the real difficulty of the two-person play, which shows that he is not a layman. Lu Panpan and Zhong Buqun quickly exchanged glances, and Zhong Buqun asked, "Are you very interested in ballet?" ”

"What a thing! Haven't I been retired for a few years...... If you had enrolled a few years earlier, you would have taken my lectures. ”

It turned out to be a professor in the ballet department! No wonder they called their teacher Li Xiao Li just now, if they weren't familiar with each other, how could they shout so kindly?

"Oh my God, we didn't even know you were a ......" was a professor at the college.

After doing it for a long time, studying coffee is people's hobby...... The total income from lectures and performances is indeed enough for him to open a café in a corner of the school and spend several years studying coffee.

"Well, I know that my students have all graduated a long time ago, and the teachers who used to interact with me have not come to my place for coffee for a long time...... It's really strange, they say that the coffee I make is delicious, why don't they come often, and they don't help me promote it? Forget it, let's settle the matter between the two of you first. ”

Lu Panpan and Zhong Buqun: ......
