Film and Television Overview: Starting from the Same Window

"They are all really good, and they're all sets of photos." Lu Qiaochuan sincerely praised them, then asked curiously, "Did you take these during your vacation?"

"Yup!"

"But I feel like you just spend your vacation applying face masks every day!"

"That was after the New Year." Yu Hao rolled his eyes and said, "Didn't you film anything before the New Year?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Qiaochuan immediately heard the music of square dancing and the image of his aunt and her gang appeared in his mind. He forced himself to say, "I... took some... pictures of folk art."

Yu Hao reached out his hand, wanting to see the folk art he was talking about.

Lu Qiaochuan saw through his thoughts, but how could he possibly be willing to release the video, because it was his dark history?

So he quickly said, "Brother Hao, just pick any set, make it into a large image and send it to me. I'll promote you in a prominent way."

"Hmph! I feel so awesome!" Yu Hao suddenly became smug.

Lu Qiaochuan smiled, turned to collect the photos from Bi Shisan, but found that he wasn't there. So he asked, "Where's Shisan? Why isn't he in the room preparing the materials?"

Xiao Haiyang said, "San'er said the club hadn't had any activities in a long time, so he went for a run early."

Upon hearing this, Lu Qiaochuan's face fell: "I painstakingly wrote down so many precautions for him, and he didn't prepare any materials but went out for a walk?"

Xiao Haiyang said, "Why don't you collect other people's photos first, and I'll talk to him when he gets back?"

"That's all!"

Lu Qiaochuan nodded slightly and turned to go to the other dormitories to collect the photos.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Shengchen asked curiously, "Lu Qiaochuan, why don't you just send a text message to everyone and have them send it to your email? Why do you have to go in person?"

Lu Qiaochuan said helplessly, "I have to go and pay my respects to them one by one. Sigh, the class group chat is like my stand-up comedy routine now; nobody pays any attention to me!" He then walked out.

Zhou Shengchen clicked his tongue and said, "How heartbreaking!"

…………

After leaving the dormitory, Lu Qiaochuan went directly to Jiang Yunming's dormitory, squatted down next to Jiang Yunming, and explained his purpose.

Jiang Yunming immediately said impatiently, "Is this your idea, or Teacher Ye's? Teacher Ye said in the class meeting that it's canceled!"

"It was indeed Teacher Ye's idea," Lu Qiaochuan confirmed.

"Squad leader, I have a personal suggestion for you, please don't be angry," Jiang Yunming said.

Lu Qiaochuan nodded, indicating that he could say whatever he wanted.

"I suggest you don't be so ambitious. New officials always want to achieve something quickly to prove themselves, but there's no need for that. Time will tell, and no matter how much you try, you won't achieve anything!"

Jiang Yunming suddenly drew out his words: "Besides, I still have to write a self-criticism later, how can I have time to choose photos?"

"Just as I expected!" Lu Qiaochuan thought to himself.

Just as he expected, Jiang Yunming, who was at odds with him, was indeed going to make things difficult for him.

Fortunately, he had anticipated that some people hadn't written self-criticisms, so he wrote a few himself beforehand; otherwise, things would have been really difficult to handle.

“You need to send me photos of the four of you in your dorm. I’ll write your self-criticisms for you!” Lu Qiaochuan said to Jiang Yun.

"Hehehe!"

Jiang Yunming immediately laughed: "Okay, class monitor, you have to trust my taste!"

"I! Absolutely! Believe!" Lu Qiaochuan said through gritted teeth.

At this moment, he hated Jiang Yunming, who had repeatedly made things difficult for him.

However, for the sake of an excellent class, for Xiao Haiyang's credits, and for Bi Shisan's scholarship, Lu Qiaochuan once again endured it.

…………

The playground at dusk, where the tea ceremony club is located.

Huangfu Shumin didn't come to the club activity again, so only Zhou Shengchen, Zhong Bailu, Qiao Chuan, and Ren Yifan sat here.

However, Zhou Shengchen was puzzled by Ren Yifan's mournful face to Lu Qiaochuan's left.

After all, Lu Qiaochuan had a long face because he had been acting like a grandson to his love rival Jiang Yunming and other classmates all day, but what was Ren Yifan's reason for this?

Thinking of this, Zhou Shengchen asked curiously, "Ren Yifan, what are you doing? It's one thing for Lu Qiaochuan to be mourning alone, but you're following suit?"

"Our class is in a rush to finish a scholarship competition this weekend," Ren Yifan said with a bitter face and a listless expression.

Zhou Shengchen chuckled: "That's quite a coincidence. Our class also has a scholarship competition, and Lu Qiaochuan is currently racking his brains over this."

Upon hearing this, Ren Yifan immediately showed a disdainful look: "Then do you need to speak in Spanish? We not only need to speak, but the teacher also asked me to sing a Spanish song."

Zhou Shengchen said calmly, "It's just speaking in Spanish, isn't that quite simple? Besides, it's just one song, isn't that even simpler?"

"Easy?" Ren Yifan raised an eyebrow, his face showing disdain. "If you're so capable, you give me one. Hmm, just sing any Spanish song."

“Sing it!” Zhou Shengchen glanced at him and immediately sang “QuiénTeDijoEso?”.

After he finished singing, Ren Yifan was stunned: "You understand Spanish?"

Zhou Shengchen calmly asked, "Is Spanish difficult?"

Chapter 164 Ren Yifan: I'm a real man

"Brilliant!"

Zhong Bai gave Zhou Shengchen a thumbs up, then turned to Ren Yifan and asked with some curiosity, "Why do you sing Spanish songs?"

Ren Yifan's face immediately fell: "It's not like you have to sing a Spanish song. The school gave us two choices: sing or recite. If it were you, which would you choose?"

Zhong Bai immediately laughed: "Looks like you're doing pretty well in your class!"

"Nonsense! I'm the class monitor!" Ren Yifan said smugly.

"What a coincidence! Our vice president, Mr. Lu Qiaochuan, is also the class monitor!" Zhou Shengchen said sinisterly.

Zhong Bai then asked Ren Yifan, "Where do you rank in your class?"

"Number one!"

Ren Yifan replied without hesitation.

"Oh ho, what a coincidence! Lu Qiaochuan is also first in our class. It's just that we have to add the words 'last' before his first place," Zhou Shengchen joked.

Lu Qiaochuan: "..."

Looking up from his laptop, Lu Qiaochuan said dejectedly, "The three of you are enough!"

He's really at his wit's end with having made three terrible friends!

Zhou Shengchen smiled, put his right hand on Zhong Bai's shoulder, and leaned closer to look at Lu Qiaochuan's computer. "Let me see what photos they've chosen."

Lu Qiaochuan stared at the photos on the screen and sighed helplessly: "We received eleven photos in total. The remaining thirteen people either refuse to hand them in no matter what, or we completely ignore them."

Zhou Shengchen patted Lu Qiaochuan on the shoulder and comforted him, "Cheer up, almost half of the people have already paid!"

Lu Qiaochuan chuckled bitterly: "It's all traps!"

“It’s definitely a trap!” Zhou Shengchen nodded in agreement as he looked at the messy photos on the screen.

At this moment, Zhong Bai pointed to two photos on the screen and asked, "Who took these two photos?"

Lu Qiaochuan touched his nose, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "Me and Xiao Haiyang!"

Zhong Bai: "..."

After thinking for a moment, Zhong Bai said, "Hmm, looking closely, they do have a unique charm, especially... which one was taken by Lu Qiaochuan?"

Lu Qiaochuan pointed to one of the photos and said playfully, "This one, you decide!"

Zhou Shengchen, standing beside him, smiled and affirmed, "It's definitely not this one."

Zhong Bai looked at Lu Qiaochuan's teasing face, then said to Zhou Shengchen, "Look at that face of his, he's just pretending to be mysterious. It's actually this one. He wants me to think it's not this one, so he'll praise the previous one, and then seize on my words to say that I'm opportunistic!"

Lu Qiaochuan shook his head: "No matter how you evaluate it, you're already changing your tune with the wind."

(cjec)

“Lu Qiaochuan is right, Zhong Bai, you’ve already started to change your tune.” Zhou Shengchen shook his head with a smile, then thought about it seriously for a moment and said, “There’s another possibility: it’s not actually this one. He quickly said it was this one, which makes it easy for us to think it’s the previous one.”

"Then, he made a mysterious expression to make you see it, and then made you think it was this one, and then praised this one."

"But Lu Qiaochuan, that cunning fellow, had a trick up his sleeve. He figured you could crack the first two levels, so his photo is still the same as the one before."

Ren Yifan then interjected, "Actually, there's another possibility: he calculated that you could guess the third layer, and then reversed it, so it should still be this one."

Zhou Shengchen said helplessly, "Actually, we don't need to guess anymore, because neither of these photos is very good."

Lu Qiaochuan suddenly shook his head, sighed, and said speechlessly, "You three are just idle. When you reach the top, you'll see all the mountains below."

Then he pointed to the screen and said, "Look at these four photos."

The three followed his gaze and saw four selfies, all of them close-up shots of their faces.

Four faces that are so ugly they couldn't be uglier; I don't know how they had the nerve to send them.

"Isn't this bullying? They completely disregard Lu Qiaochuan, the class monitor!" Zhong Bai said angrily.

"You're nothing compared to them!" Ren Yifan sighed, looking at the photos on the screen. "Translating these photos into Spanish is what they gave me as their personal introductions. Some even have Chinese characters and English words mixed in!"

“Lu Qiaochuan, why don’t you go back and tell Teacher Ye to force us to collect the photos? Otherwise, what are you going to do?” Zhong Bai suggested.

“No way!” Lu Qiaochuan shook his head and rejected Zhong Bai’s suggestion. “That would only make things worse. They already think I’m just trying to generate sales figures.”

Ren Yifan sighed, looking up at the sky with a sense of empathy, "The squad leader's life is truly miserable; all he does all day is collect materials!"

Lu Qiaochuan hugged Ren Yifan, feeling that finally someone understood his hardships.

"We begged and pleaded, braving wind and rain!" Lu Qiaochuan sighed, shaking his head.

Ren Yifan's eyes were lifeless, and his tone was desolate: "What we collected was clearly a pile of shit, yet they still carved flowers on it."

Lu Qiaochuan looked worried and said, "Actually, all of these are fine. I'm just afraid that I won't be able to get selected, and I'll be letting down Shuci, Shisan, and Haiyang."

At this point, he sighed again: "Thirteen and Haiyang, they take this matter very seriously!"

At this moment, Ren Yifan lay in Lu Qiaochuan's arms, touching his chest and saying flirtatiously, "Sir, let me sing you a Spanish serenade to cheer you up!"

"Disgusting!" Zhou Shengchen looked at the two of them with disgust and said, "The way you two are acting, anyone who doesn't know better would think you're gay! But Ren Yifan, is it because you can't have Qiao Chuan that you're so desperate to get her that you're giving up on yourself?"

"Get out!" Ren Yifan quickly got up from Lu Qiaochuan's arms, glared at Zhou Shengchen and said, "I'm a real man."
