Perfect Life

Vol 2 Chapter 134: interview

readx; Early the next morning, Li Qian accompanied Wang Jinglu to take the exam in the performance department.

As usual, there is a queue, waiting for the admission ticket, and then continue to wait after receiving the admission ticket. Only this time, while they were waiting for the exam to start, the two ran to see the exam results posted by the Photography Department.

On the printed pieces of paper, Li Qian successfully found his admission ticket number and name.

Surrounded by many candidates with drooping eyebrows and disappointed faces.

But they shouldn't be too discouraged, because the art examination season has just started, and they will then go to take the admissions examination of many such art schools - every year from April, many people will run from school to school like this. Go through the test until you are admitted by a certain school. There are even many people who will not be able to take the test this year and come back next year!

Wang Jinglu smiled happily, as if she had passed the test herself.

Then, Li Qian was replaced to send her into the examination room.

Amazingly, after Wang Jing revealed it, he said that the exam questions in the acting department were exactly the same as those in the photography department.

Then, just like the answer on the top of the building, the two of them analyzed whether Wang Jinglu's answer could pass the test. It turned out that they thought too much. When the results came out the next day, Wang Jinglu also entered the next door smoothly. round.

In the morning it was Wang Jinglu's exam, and in the afternoon it was Li Qian's turn.

Only this time, there were only about 200 people left in the photography department to take the exam.

Then, in the largest film studio at the Film Academy, two hundred people sat down in a mess, watching movies and writing reviews.

...

April 23, Suncheon Film Academy.

With the sharp decrease in the number of people taking the exam, the exam progress suddenly accelerated on the 19th and 20th. When the big list on the 21st is posted, no matter which major you are applying for, basically only the finalists are left. There are about a hundred people.

Together, there are only seven or eight hundred people on the big list.

Both Li Qian and Wang Jinglu made it to the list without any risk.

The next interview. The progress will slow down again, because although the film academy divides all candidates into three categories according to their majors to organize the exam, it is said that each candidate has five to ten minutes, so. As you can imagine, you can't get up quickly if you think about it.

Li Qian's photography department is divided into the first category for interviews.

Wang Jinglu's directing department is divided into the third category for interviews.

This time, none of them can accompany anyone. You can only line up separately.

Standing in the crowd waiting for the exam, Li Qian had no intention to pay attention to what the people around him were talking about. He just silently recalled the recordings he had completed in the past two days, and calculated his next itinerary. From the beginning, he was asked to register at the Huaxia Theater Academy at the same time, but after thinking about it, he still refused. It's not that I don't want to add this double insurance, it's just that the Academy of Drama does not have a separate photography department, and Li Qian is really not that interested in the directing department.

Of course, for Wang Jinglu, he passed two levels in a row at the Drama Academy. She also successfully entered the final interview. Li Qian is still very happy for her - she is different from Li Qian, and double insurance is only good for her and not bad.

...

Li Qian's admission ticket number is relatively high, so it was his turn at 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

The large practice room was empty, with only a few long tables lined up on the side by the mirror, and behind the tables sat a row of examiners with different postures.

Three men and two women, a total of five people.

The older one looks in his sixties, the youngest one. Probably in his early thirties.

A large room like this is so empty, it's easy to subconsciously feel nervous, not to mention it's an interview. What's more, the candidates walked in and stood facing the examiner, and the big mirror was directly opposite, and they could see their every move!

For candidates who are already nervous, this is an exam environment that will definitely make people more and more nervous.

Li Qian walked in with a folk guitar lent to him by Liao Liao, bowed to the examiners and said "Hello, teacher", and then stood up expressionlessly.

The youngest examiner sitting on the far side picked up Li Qian's admission ticket on the table. Q: "Li Qian? People from Jinan?"

Li Qian nodded and replied, "Yes."

Then, he took out three photos from the examinee's bag, and without looking at them, handed them to the side.

The three photos were passed through the hands of the remaining four, and finally returned to the young examiner.

Li Qian noticed that the female examiner who was sitting second to the south looked the most seriously.

After the young examiner took the photos, he glanced at each of them, and then handed them over. In the end, those photos fell back into the hands of the female examiner as expected.

She looked at it one by one again, raised her head with a smile, looked at Li Qian, and said, "Our interview is for talent show. Are you going to play guitar? Sing?"

Li Qian smiled and said, "I thought about it and thought I would do this too."

The female examiner smiled again and said, "Then let's start!"

Li Qian picked up the guitar and started to play the prelude - the song was chosen by Wang Jinglu, and she asked Li Qian to sing the song he wrote to her on such an important occasion, "When You Are Old".

This lyrics is the work of the British poet Yeats, of course the examiners know it, which is different from works such as "Perseverance" that have only recently become popular. No matter how popular your song is, there is no guarantee that the professors in the academy haven't heard it. But "When You're Old", they must know that when it is matched with a folk-style tune, Wang Jinglu believes that when Li Qian finishes singing, they will definitely ask who composed the tune. Then, Li Qian said that he Compose the music, doesn't this get extra points right away?

So, Li Qian obediently implemented her design.

As soon as he opened his mouth, as expected, several examiners all looked slightly moved. Obviously, they all knew this poem.

Then, the tune of this song is also enough to match this poem, and Li Qian's current experience has also allowed him to sing a babbling ballad to a pleasant level. At this level, two examiners immediately heard it. Nodding endlessly.

After singing seriously, Li Qian put down the guitar and memorized it again.

The young examiner sitting on the edge really asked, "Is this Yeats' poem? I've never heard of anyone composing this poem for him. Whose song is it?"

Li Qian said calmly: "This is a song I wrote myself."

After brushing it, it really feels different.

The five all looked up at Li Qian.

Only the one sitting in the middle, although he also looked up, but soon, he looked down at a document in his hand - um. Li Qian's eyes were sharp, looking at it like a test paper.

At this time, the female examiner suddenly picked up the three photos on the table and asked, "I saw your work. Can you tell me what you thought when you took these photos?"

Li Qian tried to think back for a moment when he heard the words, and said helplessly: "I thought at the time, you have set up the lights before we can shoot, and there are still people watching. Don't move the lights, it's not the same for everyone to shoot? The examiners I have to look at hundreds of photos that are almost the same in one day, and this... I'm curious how you can distinguish who is talented and who is not. "

As soon as he said this, several examiners at the scene immediately grinned.

The female examiner even said with a smile: "Don't doubt, don't be curious, I've been doing this for 30 years, if I can't see something at a glance, it won't be in vain for so many years? So many students, I am How did you teach it?"

Li Qian shrugged and wanted to ask, "Then can you see me?". After thinking about it, I didn't dare to ask.

But at this time, the examiner sitting in the middle suddenly spoke up. He raised his head, looked at Li Qian seriously, and asked, "Have you been exposed to French films?"

Li Qian thought about it and replied, "Very few. In our domestic situation, except for Hollywood films, it is not easy to come into contact with others."

The examiner, who looked about sixty years old, suddenly picked up the paper in his hand and shook it. Then he said, "If you haven't been exposed to French movies, the idea of ​​the Planet of the Apes is what you think of it?"

That was indeed the test paper from the first round before.

And looking at the meaning, it should be Li Qian.

but. If I really want to talk about the idea of ​​Planet of the Apes, of course Li Qian first learned about it from American movies, but he likes to get to the bottom of things when he does things, so he searched everywhere for the setting of this Planet of the Apes, and then, at that time, he found a few. A French film from the fifties and sixties. From this, I learned that the subsequent series of Hollywood had been completed in the hands of French filmmakers decades ago, and they had also been made into a logical science fiction series.

Of course, after coming to this time and space, Li Qian's contact with the film is still too narrow, so he is not sure whether the French filmmakers in this time and space have already created this aspect, and even Hollywood has similar creations. Know.

However, it is precisely because of this little knowledge that Li Qian was very sensitive when the other party first mentioned French films. Presumably in this time and space, French filmmakers have already made this series. .

So, Li Qian thought about it, and finally answered honestly: "I have a friend, he is a screenwriter, and I had a small talk, and I happened to hear him mention that there was a science fiction movie with a similar theme in France in the 1950s. , We talked at the time, and it happened that there was such a test question this time, so I wrote down all my thoughts at the beginning."

The examiner raised his eyebrows, nodded, and said, "You are honest."

But at this time, the younger examiner asked curiously, "At your age, do you actually know a friend who is a screenwriter? Does anyone in the family work in the film and television industry?"

Li Qian shook his head, "No. It's really just a friend."

Hearing this, the examiner had an expression of disbelief on his face and asked, "Can you tell me the name of that friend of yours? I'm also a screenwriter, so maybe I know him. As far as I know, we have a lot of respect for French films in China. There are studies, or even studies that lead to noticing that movie, but not many."

Li Qian had no choice but to say: "His surname is Cao, his name is Cao Zhan."

As soon as these words came out, the five examiners showed an expression of sudden realization.

The young examiner nodded and said with a smile, "It's Lao Cao, so no wonder! He's a huge fan of French films."

But at this time, the examiner sitting in the middle suddenly said, "Your friends will not give you extra points. Cao Zhan has friends at the Film Academy, but there are more enemies!"

Li Qian grinned and said, "I believe the teachers will definitely judge the points fairly."

When the examiner heard the words, he suddenly smiled and said, "I read your test paper, and I also read the photos. You go to the photography department, it's a bit of a waste of talent, think about it, come to the director department!"

As soon as he said this, the female examiner next to him immediately widened his eyes, "Hey, Dean Qian, you are too biased! He only applied for our photography department, so don't worry about Lao Zhou in the director department! "

When the dean Qian heard the words, he was not moved at all. He just smiled slightly, looked at Li Qian, and said solemnly: "As long as you agree, I will supplement the file for you, and I will transfer the file for you, how about it?"

Li Qian thought about it, shook his head with a smile, and said, "I just want to take the photography department."

Hearing that, Dean Qian stared at him for a moment, then reluctantly retracted his gaze and put down the test paper in his hand.

At this time, the female examiner looked at Li Qian with a smile and asked, "Have you applied to other schools besides our film school? Are you planning to go to other schools?"

Li Qian shook his head and said, "I only applied for the photography department of Shuntian Film Academy."

The female examiner smiled and nodded, and said, "Go back and prepare for the cultural class exam, don't let the cultural class hold you back!" She added, "Okay, your exam is over, you can go out. "

Li Qian nodded, bowed, and walked out of the classroom in a daze.

Passing through the crowd waiting for the test, he was about to walk out of this corridor when his arm was suddenly grabbed, and then an excited face appeared in front of him, and the man asked, "Dude, how is the test? They say that the examiner is very serious, isn't it true? It's scary, right?"

"Serious?" Li Qian was stunned when he heard the words, and asked, "Who told you that the examiner was serious?"

At this moment, two people immediately asked in unison: "We all just came out of it! Why, isn't the examiner serious to you?"

In a trance, Li Qian seemed to understand something.

But thinking about it carefully, he felt that he actually didn't understand anything.

I counted with my fingers, three exams, the first written exam, I also gave the idea of ​​"Planet of the Apes", and the second time I wrote a movie review, um, maybe my knowledge is indeed more real than those around me. It is the seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys and girls who are a lot smarter?

In short, the final result is that he seems to be favored by those examiners?

After a pause, he looked at the concerned eyes around him, shrugged, and said, "I just stared at the mirror when I went in, I didn't notice what the examiners were like..."

When he answered this, everyone around was relieved.

"You are actually worse than me..." Someone next to me said with a smile.

Li Qian shrugged, smiled, and got up to leave.

...

Frankly speaking, apart from the fact that the waiting time is too long to make Li Qian somewhat annoying, the three exams spanning several days really didn't give Li Qian much feeling, and then, unknowingly, , the test is over.

Moreover, it seems that he did well in the test?

But Wang Jinglu was completely different. After attending the two interviews at the Film Academy and the Drama Academy, she couldn't help complaining in front of Li Qian over and over again—

"I think I played too badly during the interview, especially at the drama school! You don't know, those teachers are all sullen. I'm so scared that I can't speak! Fortunately, my talent show is the piano. Once I play the piano, I will be less nervous, otherwise it must be worse!"

But no matter what, the exam is over, and both Li Qian and Wang Jinglu are not ready to apply for other art schools—if Li Qian fails the exam, he will choose not to go to university, and if Wang Jinglu fails If you go to college, you will choose to give up the path of art and go to the ordinary school seriously. Well, if it is not unexpected, she will choose a normal school, and strive to be a teacher like Dad Li after graduation in the future.

And then, after finishing the art exam, Wang Jinglu went back to school to continue the class, while Li Qian returned to the recording studio.

The recording of Liao Liao's second solo album "The Sound of the Wave is Still" has come to the final stage.
