"It's okay. Having a student like you will add luster to our Grade 01 class."
After so many years of working in Chinese opera, of course I know Chang Li’s teacher He Xin. What do you say about this old lady? Her demeanor and behavior are a bit like Grandma Rong, but when she is serious and not smiling, her face is full of flesh and looks a bit seeping, very a bit.
He is not angry and intimidating, but when he smiles, he can give people a kind-hearted look, like the grandma next door.
"I heard you never rehearsed a stage play in school?"
"Well……"
"This is not good. In our drama school, stage play is the foundation. I won't ask you anything here. I just hope that you will definitely participate in next year's graduation drama. In addition, if you want to go out for filming in the future, just report to me.
Cheng, I hope you can continue to make good movies and don't accept those messy scripts."
"Hey, Teacher Chang, I have written down everything you said, and I will definitely supervise myself according to your requirements."
Coming out of the old lady's office, He Xin couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead, let out a long breath, and then smiled bitterly and said to Hao Rong, who accompanied him to meet the old lady: "Oh my god, it's worse than meeting the dean."
nervous."
"Okay, the old lady's requirements for you are quite relaxed. In fact, you don't have to pay too much attention to it. The old lady still cares about her students." Hao Rong patted his shoulder and said.
He Xin nodded and said, "Brother Hao, if you have nothing to do, let's get together tonight!"
"Not today. Director Huang has organized a bureau today, and I have to join in. Well, tomorrow, I'll ask your sister-in-law to cook some good dishes, and invite Mengnan to join us, and we'll get together at home."
As he said that, Hao Rong smiled and said: "I have moved to a new home and you haven't even been here yet. Your sister-in-law was still talking about you yesterday."
"Okay, then it will be tomorrow. I may have to move there in a while, and we will be neighbors by then. We will eat and drink together, as long as my sister-in-law doesn't find it annoying."
"Look what you said, is your sister-in-law still stingy?"
"Okay, Brother Hao, I'll take my leave now. See you tomorrow!"
"Well, see you tomorrow!"
He Xin came out of the building excitedly. He was about to go to the class to say hello to his new classmates when he ran into a couple holding hands. Although the school did not explicitly prohibit students from falling in love, the campus of Zhongxi Drama
It's very small. Generally, even couples pay great attention to the influence. It's really rare to see them being as open and grand as they are.
"Hey, Teacher He!"
The woman was the first to greet him. He Xin looked up and saw that except for being a little taller, this girl looked exactly like a little Zhang Ziyi with her eyebrows and face shape.
She met at the door of Director Huang's office last time, but He Xin couldn't call her by name. However, He Xin knew the boy next to her, who was also a well-known figure in the school, Zhang Guoli's son Zhang Mo, Class 2, Grade 01
.
"Hello!"
While He Xin responded, he also nodded to Zhang Mo as a greeting. After all, we are all now 01-level classmates in the performance department.
Although He Xin doesn't spend much time at school, he has heard some rumors about Zhang Mo. For example, he is a loner and doesn't fit in with others, and he never mentions his father's name in school.
He Xin somewhat understands these things. After all, he is a child who grew up in a single-parent family. When he was a child, he heard stories about heartless fathers and vixens. Then when he grew up, he had to rely on his heartless father. Only he knows the feeling.
, especially for a child who is in the rebellious period of youth, his character will inevitably become perverse and twisted.
For example, now He Xin nods to say hello to him, and he nods in response, but always tilts his head, looking carefree, and looks askance at people. This gives people the first impression that this child is rude and lacks tutoring.
Of course I understand, but it does not mean that He Xin likes this person. Maybe such a person emotionally rejects the heartless father, but at the same time his own vanity is complacent about having such a father, and he feels superior to others, which makes him appear to be inferior to his classmates.
It's out of place.
As for the little Zhang Ziyi next to him, when He Xin saw her, He Xin would always think of the scene he met at the door of Director Huang's office, and Hao Rong's nervous look afterwards. Needless to say, there must be something going on here. But at this time,
Seeing her and Zhang Mo looking like each other, He Xin instinctively felt a sense of embarrassment, and after hurriedly saying hello, he passed them by.
Just when he passed by, out of the corner of his eye he noticed Zhang Mo glanced at him unexpectedly. Although Zhang Guoli was an actor he liked very much in his previous life and was considered a big shot in the industry,
But that doesn't mean he has to look down on Zhang Guoli's son.
"Now I would like to introduce to you the best newcomer in Berlin, the Golden Horse Best Actor, the Little Best Actor of Venice, our new classmate, He Xin!"
Such an arrogant and funny tone naturally comes from the classmate Xiao Zhang who is possessed by the drama spirit "When I was learning Sichuan dialect, I called her Xinyi, but now the new person replaces the old person, and I call her Xiao Zhang."
Then the classmates in the class applauded enthusiastically.
Chinese opera has always been taught in small classes. There are only about ten students in the class of their 01 performance department. After all, they are already in their junior year. Most of them look familiar to He Xin, but none of them can name them.
several.
Being coaxed by Xiao Zhang and his classmates, He Xin felt somewhat embarrassed. He walked to the front desk of the classroom and bowed to his classmates: "We will all be classmates in the next two years. Please take care of me."
"It's okay for us to take care of you, but please, He Xin, please take more care of us. Don't you agree?"
"right!"
So everyone looked at He Xin with eyes that were a little more fiery.
After all, in the third year of college, according to school regulations, students are not only allowed to go out to film, but they also have to face the problem of employment after graduation. Since they have entered this industry, no one does not want to become famous and become a big star.
Compared to them, He Xin not only became famous early, but also received many awards that most actors could not achieve in their lifetime, so he naturally became a favorite in their eyes.
And the campus is usually the place where gossip spreads the fastest. Tang Wei from the directing department is very close to him. It is said that he has been accepted into several dramas during this period, making everyone excited.
But after all, they are all college students, and they are relatively simple. Everyone will only express their welcome and goodwill to He Xin with enthusiasm. Of course, Xiao Zhang, who has interacted with him very early, is the most special one.
"Brother Xin, I made money this summer. I'll treat you to dinner, call Sister Tangtang, and congratulate you on winning the Venice Best Actor Award!" After the show, Zhang Xinyi hurriedly came to him and said with a beaming smile.
"Forget it, let me invite you!" He Xin said with a smile.
Xiao Zhang's family background is average, and she went to the Shenzhen Song and Dance Troupe to be a dancer for three years after graduating from her hometown art school before being admitted to the Chinese Opera. She is relatively older in the class and has been involved in society.
That kind of student has always been more sophisticated.
She said she made money during the summer vacation, but in fact, she spent most of her time dancing for others or filming music videos to earn hard-earned money. Of course, He Xin would not really let her treat her.
"By the way, call Xiao Wang from the next class again, and... forget it, just Xiao Wang." He Xin continued.
He originally wanted to call Xiao Wen up to level 02. After all, he had played basketball a few times before and was pretty good at it, but after thinking about it, he decided not to do it.
What do you say about Xiao Wen? Among the basketball players Deng Chao gathered, he was not only the youngest, but also the youngest, but he was very good at getting into trouble. But just because he was so good at getting into trouble, He Xin took a liking to this guy.
A little diaphragmatic.
All the friends he made were outspoken and frank, probably with the exception of Hao Rong. But even if Hao Rong had many little Jiujiu, he was at least very sincere and caring towards him. Sometimes he also guessed
People like Hao Rong actually don't really have many friends. It seems that he and Li Mengnan have been hanging out together for so many years.
And Xiaowen is the kind of person who is not very straightforward and straightforward. Although every time he sees him, his face is always laughing and joking, but He Xin always feels that his smile is a bit fake, and his face is not very good. To use a Shanghai sentence
The word is used to describe him as a bit "little fool", which translated means that this person is not grand. Thinking about the famous saying of later generations, "do it and cherish it", it is quite appropriate to apply it to him.
But when Zhang Xinyi heard that He Xin wanted her to call Xiao Wang, she was a little reluctant and said, "Why call him?"
He Xin smiled and said: "Don't you have a good relationship with him? Besides, Xiao Wang is a nice person, and it will be more lively when there are more people!"
In fact, he had already seen that Wang Longzheng liked Zhang Xinyi, while Xiao Zhang had no feelings for Xiao Wang, but Xiao Wang was good at homework. In order to hand in homework, Xiao Zhang often needed Xiao Wang's help. So
It evolved into the situation where classmate Xiao Wang did not dare to express his feelings, and classmate Xiao Zhang kept hanging on like this because he could use classmate Xiao Wang.
I have to say that classmate Xiao Zhang is still very cautious, and to use a later popular term to describe him, he is a bit of a bitch.
No wonder Cheng Hao didn't like her at all. Cheng Hao, a female classmate who was also close to He Xin in school, would never say a bad word to the carefree Tang Wei. On the contrary, because of her boyfriend,
Now Tang Wei and Tang Wei are developing into best friends.
But he was not very polite to classmate Xiao Zhang, and even commented on classmate Xiao Zhang very harshly: "You look like a vixen at first glance!"
Perhaps in his previous life, He Xin had a good impression of Zhang Xinyi's screen image, and she had actually helped him when he was learning Sichuan dialect, so he had always been very tolerant towards classmate Zhang.
As for classmate Xiao Zhang using classmate Xiao Wang for homework, this is generally a matter of fighting or suffering. As a student with an undergraduate degree in acting, He Xin understands this very well.
There is no other reason for this, because they are both in the performance department. Compared with the advanced courses and junior college classes that He Xin attended before, the undergraduate classes are completely different.
For example, when enrolling students every year, the undergraduate class recruits 20 or 30 people, while the junior college class recruits a hundred people. Compared with the loose management of advanced courses and junior college classes, the undergraduate class of the acting department can be said to have the strictest management and professionalism in the entire Chinese Opera.
The scariest class.
Who is the first person to get up every day and the last person to go to bed every day? The students in the undergraduate class of the Department of Acting. Who is the one who is often scarred and has no time to rest in the school? Or the students in the undergraduate class of the Department of Acting.
Usually at around six o'clock in the morning, students in the undergraduate class will perform morning exercises, which means opening their voices, moving their bodies, pronouncing lines, practicing their voices, breathing, and tongue, such as tongue twisters. Eight hundred pacesetters rush to the north slope.
White stone tower, white stone tower, black fertilizer will evaporate, etc.
As the grades increase, there will be some homework, monologues, poems, prose lines, etc., which will be reviewed and practiced during morning exercises, just like students in military academies have morning exercises in the morning, and Peking opera actors have to sing their voices in the morning. These
All done before breakfast.
He Xin used to ride his bicycle through South Tongluo Alley in the early morning and ride along the alley to East Mianmian Hutong where the school is located. At this time, the old Beijing residents living in the alley had just gotten up and started their early morning routines.
The sounds of opening and closing doors, sending children off, riding bicycles, and raising birds are ordinary yet beautiful.
But at the same time, I can also hear a more beautiful and pleasant sound, as if I am in a dream-like world that is inconsistent with reality. Sometimes it is babbling like a Peking Opera actor, sometimes it is tongue twisters like a child, and sometimes it is...
The names of dishes are announced like a cross talk actor, sometimes it is the lyrical prose of a melancholy girl, sometimes it is a vivid and interesting animal fable, sometimes it is a tea guest in a teahouse in the old capital, sometimes it is the prince in Hamlet.
That was the sound of undergraduate students practicing their lines in the morning.
These lines were either crisp and loud, or light and soft. For He Xin at that time, the feeling was absolutely pure and beautiful, a scenery unique to the ivory tower, and inspiring.
Although the requirements for morning exercises also apply to advanced courses and junior college classes, the requirements for undergraduate classes are much stricter. If you fail to do morning exercises for several times, you will be considered absent from class. Absence from class will be punished, and almost no one dares to challenge this bottom line.
Unlike advanced courses and college classes, no one will care about you even if you don't leave for a semester.
Similarly, the school's professional requirements for undergraduate classes are also extremely strict. Freshmen and sophomores basically spend every day rehearsing in the rehearsal room. When they go out, they also go to the streets to observe people. When they come back, they have to write observation notes and give them instructions when performing roles.
The teacher can use it for reference. The teacher can tell whether you really observed it or just made it up.
The line class includes dialogue in novels, prose, poetry, fables, scripts, and the performance class includes animal simulations, character observation, life sketches, novels adapted from scripts, and students in the performance department are both tasked with "screenwriting" and "stage beauty."
All the stories and situations of the performances are thought up by themselves, including the essays for the line class, which are also required to be written by themselves. The sketches are compiled by themselves, and the novels and excerpts are adapted. If they do not compile well, they will be punished by the teacher.
Pass, then continue editing, if you pass one after another, you will not be able to pass the final exam.
The pressure is really great!
No wonder Cheng Hao is now clamoring to lose weight. No matter how much she ate in school, she never gained weight. Because of such high-intensity training, she couldn't gain weight even if she wanted to.
The only thing He Xin feels lucky about is that after his junior year, he usually rehearses big plays, using ready-made classic scripts like "Thunderstorm" and "The Marriage of Figaro", so he doesn't have to work hard to be a "screenwriter" himself.
and "Dance".
It is precisely these basic skills that He Xin is missing, which is why he is always afraid of stage plays, because this is not a piecemeal movie, but the whole scene must be completed in one go. If he does not have solid basic skills,
, it’s easy to make a fool of yourself.
This is also the case today when He Xin came to the undergraduate class to register. Why was he so frightened when facing the class teacher, Teacher Chang Li?
