Film and Television Overview: Starting from the Same Window

“I’m not ashamed, but you’re embarrassing yourselves and the entire photography class… Skipping classes is one thing, but you don’t even go to the flag-raising ceremony.”

As he spoke, he pointed at Lu Qiaochuan and roared, "Lu Qiaochuan! What kind of class monitor are you?! Why were only eleven people there for the flag-raising ceremony? I even specifically asked you to call them and inform them!"

With nowhere else to vent his anger, Ye Jiping unleashed it on his squad leader, Lu Qiaochuan.

Lu Qiaochuan wanted to explain that he had notified everyone one by one, but after thinking about it, he didn't say it and could only take the blame himself.

“It’s my fault!” Lu Qiaochuan said in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, Ye Jiping roared, "Thirteen people who didn't go, each of you must write a self-criticism!"

Zhou Shengchen looked at Ye Jiping, who was raging upstairs, and said to Xiao Haiyang beside him, "Is this the first time Old Ye has ever gotten so angry?"

“Hmm!” Xiao Haiyang nodded and said, “He used to seem quite amiable, but I didn’t expect him to be so scary when he gets angry.”

"You scared me to death!" Yu Hao shrank back and said in a coquettish voice.

Zhou Shengchen couldn't help but shiver, then quietly shifted his position.

Teacher Ye was still furiously berating everyone from the lectern.

"...In previous years, the photography class didn't have this opportunity, but this year the scores of the top six in our class are exceptionally high. Your average score has been raised to 87.5 points to qualify for this."

"If you are selected as an outstanding class, students with high scores (4.2) can even apply for an outstanding scholarship."

At this moment, Bi Shisan walked in carrying a backpack and pulling a suitcase.

Teacher Ye turned around angrily and shouted, "Why are you so late? You didn't even go to the flag-raising ceremony, and you're late for the class meeting!"

Bi Shisan ignored why the homeroom teacher was angry and instead asked calmly, "How much was the scholarship you mentioned earlier?"

"It's ten thousand." Ye Jiping shouted, then turned to the crowd and said, "I was originally going to give you all a good praise, but seeing you like this, and since you're all going to be eliminated anyway, I'm not going to waste my breath on you. Meeting adjourned. Classes start tomorrow!"

After saying that, he stormed out, leaving behind a group of people who were completely bewildered by what he had said.

Seeing that the people below didn't move, Bi Shisan tilted his head and said again, "Meeting adjourned!"

Today wasn't a formal class, so everyone went home immediately after Ye Jiping adjourned the meeting.

Of course, a few people stayed there to study.

Chapter 162: If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too.

Back in the dormitory, Zhou Shengchen took out his phone to chat with Huangfu Shumin when he suddenly heard a "tap tap tap" sound. He turned around and saw that it was Lu Qiaochuan typing on the keyboard.

Zhou Shengchen frowned slightly: "Lu Qiaochuan, what are you hitting? Didn't you hand in your homework a long time ago?"

"It's better to be prepared." Lu Qiaochuan sighed deeply and said helplessly, "I'll write a few self-criticisms first, so that if someone hasn't written one yet, I can just use them."

"You're such a spineless class monitor. If I were you, I'd quit immediately," Zhou Shengchen said, shaking his head.

"Serving the people!" Lu Qiaochuan didn't care about Zhou Shengchen's words and just kept typing.

At this moment, Xiao Haiyang sat up straight and suddenly said to Lu Qiaochuan, "Squad leader, I have something important to tell you."

Lu Qiaochuan put down the mouse and turned to look at him: "You say it!"

Xiao Haiyang waved his phone and said, "I just asked one of my former classmates, and he said that if our class is selected as an outstanding class, each student can earn two credits at the end of the semester."

Lu Qiaochuan: 29 "Oh!"

"How about we give it a try?" Xiao Haiyang hesitated for a moment before saying, "Although I've worked much harder this year than in previous years, I'm not 100% sure I won't repeat a year. Every extra two credits counts, right?"

"The key issue is that Teacher Ye has already said she won't get involved in the matter of the outstanding class!" Lu Qiaochuan said, sounding somewhat troubled.

Xiao Haiyang clasped his hands together and pleaded, "Squad leader, please think of another way!"

"Or I could go ask!" Just then, Bi Shisan, who was lying on the bed, sat up. "The scholarships I applied for before all required sports performance, and I don't know if I can get them. I'd also like to try applying for individual scholarships."

“Actually, Ye Jiping is hoping that you, Qiaochuan, will go to him to ask about the outstanding class collective!” Zhou Shengchen interjected.

Instantly, everyone's eyes turned to them.

Zhou Shengchen calmly said, "He doesn't need to handle the specifics of applying for the class collective award, but if our class really does win the award, it will add some luster to Ye Jiping's resume. Why wouldn't he be happy to do that?"

Everyone nodded thoughtfully.

Zhou Shengchen continued, "Moreover, I checked, and this might be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in the history of the filming class. If it succeeds, not to mention Ye Jiping, even the instructor will definitely be happy to see it."

"Were there no film and television training classes eligible to apply before?" Lu Qiaochuan asked.

Zhou Shengchen glanced at him: "Didn't Ye Jiping say that we are qualified because the top six students in our class raised the overall score?"

"Think about our scores this time. I got full marks in all subjects, Thirteen's average score was 95, Shuci's average score was 94, and as for the remaining three... well, I'm not too sure, but their average scores were probably all over 90."

"What an honor it must be for the photography class to gather so many top students! This is unprecedented, and it probably won't happen again in the future."

"I'll go now."

After hearing Zhou Shengchen's analysis, Lu Qiaochuan immediately got up and ran outside.

office.

As soon as Lu Qiaochuan mentioned the application for outstanding class collective, Ye Jiping breathed a sigh of relief and then excitedly said, "Chuan, I'm so happy! I made some tough statements this morning and couldn't take them back, which almost made me lose face. Luckily, you came to find me on your own initiative, haha!!"

Seeing Ye Jiping's expression, Lu Qiaochuan realized that Zhou Shengchen was absolutely right; Ye Jiping was indeed eager for him to come over.

Ye Jiping continued, "Actually, I think we should try to seize this opportunity; it's a once-in-a-lifetime chance for our film and television production team."

“Zhou Shengchen is right again,” Lu Qiaochuan thought to himself. Then he smiled and said, “Teacher Ye, could you tell me the details? What materials do I need to prepare?”

Upon hearing Lu Qiaochuan's question, Ye Jiping immediately looked bewildered, then awkwardly forced a smile at Lu Qiaochuan without saying a word.

Lu Qiaochuan frowned, looking at him with a puzzled expression: "Teacher, can you say something?"

Ye Jiping coughed twice and said awkwardly, "Qiaochuan, you are a sensitive person. I think you should pay more attention to the little details in life. As I just said, this is unprecedented in the history of filming, and I also come from a filming class, so I don't really know what I need to prepare."

Lu Qiaochuan: "..." If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too. The ancients were right.

Ye Jiping probably felt a little embarrassed, so he took out a small green booklet from his bag and changed the subject, saying, "But it's okay. The academy gave me a sacred booklet with detailed information on applying for outstanding class status. Let's study it together!"

"If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too!" Lu Qiaochuan cursed in his heart again.

Picking up the booklet, Lu Qiaochuan began taking notes.

Ye Jiping stood beside Lu Qiaochuan, looking at the words he was writing, and shook his head with a tsk-tsk.

Hearing the sound, Lu Qiaochuan looked up and asked with some confusion, "What's wrong? Teacher, is there anything you've missed?"

Ye Jiping said, "Your handwriting is too beautiful, no wonder you got last place in the exam. I've reminded you repeatedly before, don't write too beautifully in the photography class."

"So, only after preparing this slideshow will our class be eligible to participate in this selection. And if we're lucky enough to be selected, then Zhou Shengchen, Bi Shisan, and Li Shuci will be eligible to compete for individual scholarships, is that right?" Lu Qiaochuan estimated the steps and asked.

Ye Jiping adjusted his glasses and said, "According to the pamphlet, that's how it is!"

Lu Qiaochuan raised an eyebrow: "Then at least one of the three of them can get the scholarship, they won't all miss out, right?"

Ye Jiping said, "That's how it is according to the pamphlet!"

Lu Qiaochuan felt increasingly uneasy as he listened. He straightened up and asked again, "I heard that if a class is selected as an outstanding class, all the students will receive two extra credits. Is that true?"

Ye Jiping: "Judging from the booklet..."

"The booklet doesn't mention this at all!" Lu Qiaochuan picked up the booklet and immediately interrupted, refuting the claim.

Ye Jiping quickly changed his tune: "You won't get the answer from the booklet. But it is true that each student will get two extra credits."

Lu Qiaochuan stared intently into his eyes and asked, "Are you sure?"

“Although I haven’t added it myself, I’ve seen others do,” Ye Jiping replied, then suddenly looked enlightened. “No wonder you’re so proactive about this. Are you worried about not having enough credits for the final exam and having to repeat a year?”

"I won't take the picture!" Lu Qiaochuan shook his head and said, "Although my score was low, I didn't fail any courses and I still have credits. Xiao Haiyang got second to last place because he had a high score in physical education, but he failed two courses and is four credits short!"

Ye Jiping suddenly understood, and exclaimed with a look of sudden realization: "So that's how credits are calculated! How amazing! No wonder I didn't repeat a year in college! Are you sure?"

???

Can we be a little more reliable?

With a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth, Lu Qiaochuan met Ye Jiping's gaze and mimicked his tone, saying, "According to the booklet given to freshmen at the beginning of the semester, that's the case."

Ye Jiping: "..." Why are you copying me?

Chapter 163: Playing the Grandson

In the boys' dormitory, Zhou Shengchen was sitting on the seat under his bed, typing away at his novel. Suddenly, Lu Qiaochuan walked over with a sheet of paper.

"Give!"

Lu Qiaochuan handed the form to Zhou Shengchen.

Application for Individual Scholarship under the Talent Excellence Program

Zhou Shengchen looked at the large characters at the top of the list and then looked at Lu Qiaochuan in confusion, not understanding why he had given this thing to him.

Seeing Zhou Shengchen's confusion, Lu Qiaochuan said, "The scholarship issue has been clarified. Well, it's quite complicated overall. First of all, our class needs to win the Outstanding Class Collective award, which is my job."

"Then, students with an average grade of 94 or above will be eligible to apply for individual scholarships. In our class, only you, Bi Shisan, and Li Shuci meet this standard. So, prepare your materials according to these requirements, hurry up, and submit them the day after tomorrow morning. And after the materials are submitted, there will be..."

“I’m not applying,” Zhou Shengchen interrupted. “Qiaochuan, you know I’m not exactly short of money, so let’s leave the scholarship to those who need it!”

"Are you sure?" Lu Qiaochuan asked.

"Sure!"

Zhou Shengchen nodded vigorously.

"Alright then!" Lu Qiaochuan smiled and added, "However, even if you don't apply, you still need to choose your favorite photo and write a 100-word self-introduction for your slideshow."

“Okay!” Zhou Shengchen nodded.

Afterwards, Lu Qiaochuan gave Bi Shisan a form and then turned around to find Li Shuci to talk to her about applying for the scholarship.

…………

Around 3 PM, Lu Qiaochuan returned to his dormitory.

Zhou Shengchen randomly picked a photo and sent it to Lu Qiaochuan. As for a self-introduction, that wasn't urgent.

After receiving Zhou Shengchen's photos, Lu Qiaochuan went to ask Yu Hao for more photos.

Yu Hao turned on his computer and looked through the photos he had taken, a narcissistic expression on his face: "Sigh, I feel like I look beautiful in every single photo! I don't even know which one to choose!"
