In the afternoon of the next day, Lu Zhixing and Liu Bo came to attend the rehearsal of the college's welcome party.
The rehearsal took place in the comprehensive building of the School of Game Design. All the students who had passed the preliminary screening were here. They were grouped according to different categories such as song, dance, language, etc., and were led by different sophomore students.
The college welcome party is somewhat similar to the "teaching and mentoring" model. Students from the previous class who have had similar performance experience and are relatively reliable and responsible students are selected to guide the freshmen.
, after polishing and practicing, then submit the completed program layer by layer.
First, let the person in charge of the orientation party (usually a junior who has done a good job in this aspect) check it, and then let the counselor and higher-level instructors take a look.
At present, the game design school's welcome party is still in its most preliminary stage. It has only selected some decent talents. As for the specific program, it needs to be polished repeatedly before being decided.
The rehearsal conditions are also quite shabby. After all, there are only so many venues in the school. There are often various formal performances in places like small auditoriums. If each college wants to make reservations, they can basically only make reservations for one or two days.
Therefore, these students can only go to the venue to rehearse the day before the official performance, and usually have to find a place by themselves.
If you can get an appointment at a venue, make an appointment. If you can't get an appointment, you can only go to the playground, underground garage and other places to rehearse.
Fortunately, the complex building of the School of Game Design was newly built in recent years and has a lot of open space, which is enough for these people to rehearse.
Although it is impossible to have one room for each program, and different programs will still affect each other to some extent, it is still much better than those academies that are forced to rehearse in underground garages.
Zhang Yiyang briefly talked about the precautions for rehearsal, and also said some words of encouragement, and then the different groups rehearsed separately.
Seeing Lu Zhixing coming, Zhang Yiyang's face was full of smiles.
"Hey? Junior Brother Lu, you're here too? In fact, you don't need to participate in the rehearsal at all because of your level. You can just go on stage directly when the time comes."
Lu Zhixing didn't care: "It's okay, the important thing is to participate. There are still many things I don't understand, and I still have to learn more from the seniors."
Zhang Yiyang hurriedly waved his hand: "Hey! You are too humble. Who here can teach you? Why don't you just find a place to practice by yourself? If you have any questions, feel free to ask me."
Lu Zhixing nodded: "Okay."
Of course, he didn't come to the rehearsal to improve himself. After all, he is now the best singer in the entire college. The main reason why he came was to continue to complete his role as "campus superstar".
Lu Zhixing found that completing some "iconic events" would increase the playing progress and points significantly more, so he should use these identities to participate in different events as much as possible.
As expected, Lu Zhixing strolled around the rehearsal area, and the performance progress bar immediately increased significantly.
The rehearsal scene also made Lu Zhixing reminisce about the college days he had experienced in his previous life, and he felt nostalgic for it inexplicably.
Students in the song group practiced different singing methods under Zhang Yiyang's guidance to improve their singing proficiency. Some also changed different repertoire under Zhang Yiyang's suggestion.
Yan Wei is dancing with a group of beautiful girls. Although their movements are still patchy and their levels are uneven, this youthful vitality is still pleasing to the eye.
However, after watching it for a while, Lu Zhixing came to the language program.
Compared with songs and dances, language programs occupy the largest space. After all, you have to be able to perform sketches in rehearsals. However, there are not many people in language programs. There are only two groups, one for cross talk and one for sketches.
The situation in cross talk is not that good. Both of them are obviously amateurs. Although it can be seen that they are trying to imitate the style of professional cross talk actors, their every move is still very reserved, which makes people feel a little embarrassed.
Lu Zhixing has always felt that cross talk is the most difficult of all language programs. If students want to perform language programs at parties, talk shows and sketches are better choices.
After all, talk shows can be based on some Internet jokes, and skits have actions and props, but cross talk is too basic.
People with solid basic skills can make the audience laugh when they tell old jokes, but even if a layman tells classic cross talk jokes, the audience can't listen to them at all.
College students are basically the latter.
The situation in the sketch was also not optimistic. Lu Zhixing could tell that they seemed to be talking about an unpopular sketch that had been broadcast on local TV stations before, but he didn't know whether it was because the sketch itself was not very exciting or because there was something wrong with their acting. Those
None of the laughter and baggage that should have been revealed.
There was a sophomore student next to me who was giving guidance, but his level was mediocre and it didn't help much.
During this period, many classmates were also peeking at Lu Zhixing. Apparently, his previous deeds in the robbery battle had already spread.
After walking around, Lu Zhixing returned to the rehearsal place for the song program.
After practicing for a while, everyone was tired and were drinking water, resting and chatting.
Lu Zhixing said: "Our college's language programs seem a bit weak."
Zhang Yiyang nodded: "Who says it's not the case! Hey, there's nothing we can do about it, this is a traditionally weak project in our college.
"For programs like singing and dancing, there are more or less good prospects in each freshmen class. Whether they are born with good voices or have learned vocal dance before, they can be put together every year.
"But language programs are difficult. Most of the students have no similar performance experience, so they are just trying to catch up. What's more, comedy is the most difficult performance type. It is really hard to make the audience laugh.
“In addition, the book is also a big problem.
"Those common cross talk sketches are too well-known, everyone has heard them, and they have already expected the burden. But if we look for some uncommon cross talk sketches, they are not particularly funny, and it is difficult to be effective.
"Anyway, it's difficult!"
Everyone knows that the New Year’s Eve Party is very popular, and language programs are definitely an indispensable part. Just like why the reputation of the Spring Festival Gala is not as good as every year? Isn’t it because language programs are getting worse and worse!
But even if everyone knows it, for students, this problem is still unsolvable.
Lu Zhixing silently kept this matter in mind, and considered looking back to see if he could use his points to redeem a sketch book to make up for this shortcoming.
Of course, he wasn't sure if he could draw the right one, so he didn't tell anyone for the time being. He just made a note of it for the time being.
…
In the evening, when Lu Zhixing returned to the rental house, he collapsed on the sofa and took stock of what he had gained during this period.
Among the three role identities, the performance completion rate of the migrant worker is 7%, while the completion rate of the campus superstar and the paralyzed patient reached 34% and 22% respectively.
During the performance, Lu Zhixing also accumulated a lot of points one after another, and the current point balance has reached 189 points.
And now what Lu Zhixing has to do is: draw a lottery!
This is to better complete the role of a worker.
In fact, Lu Zhixing goes to Xinglu Internet Cafe to help out every now and then when he is free. The time he spends playing this role is not short, but the completion of the role has increased very slowly, and is now even stagnant.
But look at the other two identities.
The performance completion and points of paralyzed patients mainly come from running around in a wheelchair. Although the completion and points awarded when performing some repetitive behaviors will be somewhat reduced, they can still be maintained at a pretty good level.
The performance of the campus superstar increased by more than 30% due to the stage appearance and rehearsal of the competition, which was accompanied by a large number of points. This progress even shocked Lu Zhixing.
Obviously, there are subtle differences in the playing rules for different identities.
His previous behavior in the battle to grab people at the welcome party met all the keywords in "a humble and low-key campus superstar who hates evil", and it also had a great response, so he reached a high degree of completion in an instant.
The key reason why the identity of a worker is so slow is that there is an important qualifier: "wearing multiple jobs."
Lu Zhixing helps in the Internet cafe, which does not fully meet the status of a "worker" (after all, it is closer to helping), nor does he "wear multiple jobs" and develop other businesses, so the completion of the role increases very slowly.
I have to find other jobs to make up for my shortcomings.
Lu Zhixing also considered going directly to a construction site to move bricks, or contacting the courier of Jingxi Express to find a job in express sorting, but after thinking about it, he decided not to do it.
Because of his current small body, even if he has the talent of a laborer, he may not be fully qualified for this kind of heavy physical labor. If he accidentally collapses from exhaustion, it will further delay the work.
So Lu Zhixing decided to use points to draw a lottery first!
His current points are enough for him to draw one literary and artistic work and three life skills. The former can help him make up for his shortcomings in the welcome party, and the latter can help him find a suitable job better.
Having made up his mind, Lu Zhixing started to draw directly.
First, he limited the type to "Sketches" in the "Random Literary Works" column, and then Lu Zhixing thought about it and entered "draft" in the keyword column.
Sketch is the art of satire, so why not take this opportunity to arrange a college show?
After all, it is "hate evil as much as hatred". This is a character design, not a small-mindedness.
【Redeem successful!】
[Literary Works: Sketch-Undercover Trainee]
There are no fancy special effects, nor animations of opening treasure chests or shaking slot machines. The various functions of this game are simple and unpretentious, and the lottery is completed directly.
"Well, is there really such a work?"
Lu Zhixing was pleasantly surprised. He quickly went through the script in his mind.
This script is quite interesting. The main idea is that an undercover agent sneaked into the talent show, and continuously conveyed and exposed the dark side of the talent show. During this period, he saw the absurd aspects of various talent shows, and very funny things happened.
The effect of the program is full of satire.
The literary and artistic works extracted from the "Life Playing Game" neither belong to this world nor exist in Lu Zhixing's memory of his previous life.
Although the shadow of some works can be vaguely seen, it is more like the result of integrating many classic works and adapting them according to Lu Zhixing's real-life demands.
"Okay, that's it!"
After a shipment, Lu Zhixing was in a good mood.
He decided to keep up his efforts and use the remaining points to draw three more life skills.
Because I suddenly changed my mind, I deleted a small part of this chapter and also deleted about 7,000 words of the original manuscript.
