Chapter 669 [95] Graduation! A special farewell ceremony!
"Four years ago, we gathered at this top institution of drama, film and television arts education with a common ideal for art!"

"Under the Ivy League, students of the Central Academy of Drama have become our common name..."

"..."

Although Chen Yu did not receive a high score in his thesis defense, he still became a representative of the 06 graduates of the Central Academy of Drama and spoke at the graduation ceremony.

He was wearing a blue bachelor's gown with a patterned cape and a bachelor's hat on his head, and was looking ahead with a smile.

Today, Chen Yu is no longer the freshman who looked a bit student-like four years ago.

Although he seemed to be standing in the same place, he had spoken here as a representative of the freshmen four years ago.

But his identity, demeanor, status, temperament, etc. are all completely different from what they were back then.

Four years, a small cycle.

The experiences from past and present lives, plus the stages, works and experiences, have completely changed Chen Yu from a student!

He is more like a successful young talent, standing on the stage, speaking eloquently and confidently, sharing his life experiences.

Liu Yifei, who was in the audience, tilted her head and looked at her boyfriend with the same smile.

What comes to mind is every bit of the past four years.

When they first entered this university, the two had already confirmed their relationship; now four years have passed, and they have gone through a lot hand in hand and experienced a lot together... In the blink of an eye, they have both graduated.

“Standing in the precious college time, the teachers in the college led us to learn the most cutting-edge art ideas and theories!”

"Looking back, the stories of our youth are hidden in the starry nights, beside the creeks that echo the sound of morning exercises, and in the carefully prepared reports..."

This speech was actually written by Chen Yu himself.

All the graduates of Class 06, not just those from the acting department, directing department, etc., were listening attentively.

In fact, their hearts were already flying towards the group photo that would be taken later... and the teachers, leaders, etc. sitting there were obviously very satisfied with Chen Yu's speech this time.

As people mature, they become more reserved.

He exudes the demeanor of an international superstar. No student has ever achieved such an honor since the founding of the Chinese Academy of Drama.

He has won numerous official titles of Outstanding Youth including Grand Slam Award, National Theatre Award, New Era, etc.!

“We are about to leave the campus and head for a different future of our own choice!”

Chen Yu raised his head and gave a speech without a script: "No matter where we go or where we are, our identity as a member of the Central Academy of Drama will never change. We will always remember the character of our teachers at the Central Academy of Drama, which taught us to 'learn morality before learning art, and be a good person before acting', and the true meaning of 'seeking truth, creating, and pursuing beauty'!"

“We are born at the right time and we should strive for the right time. We will always firmly believe that there is a light shining for us and a stage shining for us in this world!”

“Standing at a new starting point in life, let us set out from under the ivy, climb over the mountains, cross the seas, accept every challenge, move forward into this vast world, and run towards the distant place we long for!”

"thank you all!"

After Chen Yu finished speaking, he bowed to everyone in the audience, and then walked to the podium amid thunderous applause.

After that, representatives of graduate students, doctoral students, and Dean Hao Rong spoke.

"graduating!"

Liu Yifei suddenly reached out and held Chen Yu's hand tightly, their fingers interlocked, and everything was said without words.

Chen Yu understood the meaning of these three words "Liu Yifei". These were the four years they had spent together.

It seems like there aren't many quarrels, and our memories are filled with images of each other.

The two of them were showing off their love like this, looking at Tang Yan and the others who were making strange expressions.

Some people are so jealous.

Liu Yifei was rarely shy and held Chen Yu's hand openly. This was the best proof of her four years with Chen Yu. She didn't need to worry about other people's opinions.

Liu Yifei's eccentric personality of daring to love and hate is sometimes what attracts Chen Yu.

“Since its birth, the purpose of drama has always been to hold up a mirror to the world and human nature!”

“Life is a long and magnificent river, with ups and downs, success and failure. It is precisely because the future is still uncertain that you young people are full of infinite possibilities!”

“The best time to plant a tree is ten years ago, the second best time is now; the ultimate place to conquer a racetrack is at the end, the second best place to conquer a racetrack is at the bottom.”

“There are no milestones or destinations on the road to pursuing your dreams. As long as the flame in your heart is not extinguished, there is no place you cannot reach!”

“We must bear in mind the essence and mission of drama, never forget our original intention of becoming a student of the Central Academy of Drama, and never forget the social responsibility and patriotism of artists!”

“Finally, I wish you all can shine like gold in your theatrical achievements in the future!”

"Goodbye, class of 06, congratulations on your graduation!"

With Hao Rong's blessing, all the students of the 06 class of the Central Academy of Drama welcomed their graduation moment.

"From now on, you will become a new recruit in the theater industry!"

"Come on!"

Hao Rong laughed loudly, and all the freshmen of Class 06 walked out of the large lecture hall cheering.

Everyone was eager to take pictures with the dean, director and others. Chen Yu looked at this group of energetic and excited classmates, and in his heart he was thinking about a day in his previous life when he had a chat with a professional student.

“I thought I could make money and become a big star after graduation!”

"Haha, who knows, college... is the happiest time in life!"

"People always understand many simple truths only after they grow up!"

"If you were to ask me what I want to do most now, I would only say that I want to never graduate and live in a real drama world every day!"

Only school is the real ivory tower and spiritual sanctuary for some people who love their profession.

"Let's go, take some pictures!"

Liu Yifei took Chen Yu's hand, and Chen Yu grinned and stood up: "Let's go!"

"Why, are you still reluctant to graduate?"

Liu Yifei could see that Chen Yu was in a bad mood.

"No, I just thought of a line from a movie!"

“It turns out that graduation is not graduation, but the funeral of friendship; and we are the mourners at the funeral… I think it’s quite right!”

Chen Yu and Liu Yifei walked out together.

"Hahaha!"

Liu Yifei laughed heartily: "Before, you said I was sentimental, and now that graduation is really approaching, you are still sentimental?"

She was wearing a bachelor's gown. Unlike Chen Yu's blue one, hers was black. It didn't show her figure, but it did show her body shape.

With her beautiful and fair face, bachelor's cap and long fluttering hair, she still looks like a campus girl.

If the Central Academy of Drama had a campus beauty contest, Chen Yu would definitely and firmly vote for Liu Yifei.

Pure and lovely, with a very prominent temperament.

"Classmate Liu...Yifei...can we take a photo together?"

A male classmate from another department suddenly mustered up the courage to walk up to Liu Yifei and spoke to him.

He looked at Chen Yu with somewhat evasive eyes.

"?"

Liu Yifei frowned slightly and glanced at Chen Yu subconsciously. Chen Yu shrugged and said with a smile: "Why are you looking at me? I finally dared to say a word to you after graduation!"

"All right!"

Liu Yifei smiled, kept a distance from the male classmate, and took a photo together.

This is probably a photo that this boy will treasure for the rest of his life.

It is said that the ultimate secret of being a bootlicker - school uniform and bachelor's suit are the only two couple outfits we have ever worn, and the graduation photo is our only photo together.

This male student still has courage, but there are many others... who don't dare to do that.

Of course, there were more female classmates who took photos of Chen He, which made Liu Yifei so angry that her teeth itched.

"I was wondering why this guy was so generous. It turns out he wanted to take a photo with his female classmates!"

This was of course a joke, Liu Yifei was not that petty. Chen Yu could accept her taking photos with male classmates, so she could certainly accept Chen Yu being loved by so many female classmates.

It’s just that some girls in the literature department are too much.

He even took out the yearbook and asked Chen Yu to sign it as a souvenir?
These writers are really cunning. There are no such things as online message boards these days, except for QQ spaces, but college students don't like that.

Therefore, this kind of graduation message book is still popular among students.

"Can I just sign my name?"

Chen Yu was a little bit amused and helpless. How long would the message have to be left? The key point was not just one girl, but more than ten people were waiting there eagerly. What’s more, there were several people who went back to the dormitory to get the message book.

Judging from the situation, if Chen Yu really signs it, he will have no good days today.

"All right!"

The girl also knew that some strong men had locked up the man, so she had to agree reluctantly.

Chen Yu signed very smoothly. He quickly wrote his name, and then everyone lined up, waiting for his favor... Oh, no, signature!

Just like that, after more than 20 guestbooks were signed, several female classmates from Class 1 of the Performance Department suddenly came up.

Read more latest popular novels at 6.9*shuba!

Among them were Tang Yan, Shen Jiani and others.

Chen Yu was so confused that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Brother Yu, given the relationship between us, wouldn't it be too perfunctory to just sign your names?"

"Leave a blessing, please!"

"After all, we are classmates..."

"Graduation is a special time, you can't disagree!"

"roll!"

Chen Yu got angry and pushed him away, saying, "Unless you delete my phone number, I won't keep it!"

They all have contact information and left messages to wish you the best. Do you really think my hands are for writing?
“One sentence!
"Just one sentence!"

"Please, write it next to Yifei!"

"What the hell, Yifei has written it?"

Since this was the work of the good guy, Chen Yu had no choice but to write it down. The key point was that a few men also came to join in the fun.

Chen Yu’s hands are almost broken from writing.

Seeing these guys looking so happy, Chen Yu couldn't bear to expose them. He probably wouldn't bother to look them up when he got back.

However, the reason why Chen Yu was soft-hearted and signed some blessings for them was because, at some point, an autograph book was indeed a kind of commemoration.

Many years later, when I take a look at it, I can still recall some warm scenes from my youth, past experiences, and scenes from college. I can't remember what some people look like, but I still remember their names.

This wonderful college life is definitely the most memorable moment in some people’s lives.

And now, Chen Yu suddenly felt it at this moment.

Today is the last day of their college life.

“The sky was always blue then…

The days always pass too slowly

You always say graduation is nowhere in sight
In the blink of an eye, we went our separate ways..."

It is said that literary and artistic students are sentimental. Some of them took a guitar and played "You, My Deskmate".

It's so exciting that some girls have started to lose their pearls.

Now in 06, many female college students are still very innocent, especially those in the literature department.

I want to be formal and even have a signature book, but I am reluctant to graduate and leave my classmates.

Everyone was crying, and Chen Yu couldn't stand it. He was afraid that Liu Yifei would be affected. At this time, Wen Zhang shouted, "Acting Department Class 1, Acting Department Class 1, take a group photo!"

"Let's go, let's take a photo!"

Chen Yu took Liu Yifei, who was still signing autographs, and walked towards the gate of the Central Academy of Drama.

Chang Li, Liu Tianchi, Hao Rong and others were already standing there, giving some "graduation messages" to their classmates.

Seeing Chen Yu coming over, Chang Li was also quite emotional: "Chen Yu, you've graduated, are you relieved?"

"Teacher Chang, Dean Hao!"

Chen Yu greeted the two people, but said, "How can that be possible? I'm still in the hospital!"

"He's not in our acting department anymore!"

Chang Li was joking, and Hao Rong beside her laughed out loud: "Okay, Director Chang, you can't bear to part with your students?"

"I can't bear it!"

Chang Li's words were sincere: "Who knows when this child will come to the acting department next time?"

"It's okay, you can go to the cinema often, and you can see it every year if nothing goes wrong!"

"Ha ha!"

Everyone laughed, and Chen Yu quickly promised: "Come often, as long as I return to the imperial capital, I will come to see you and Dean Hao!"

"I'll remember what you said. If you don't come, I'll report you to the reporters!"

A few people were talking and laughing, but they all stood in their respective positions.

"eggplant!"

All the students in Class 02, Department of Acting, Grade 1, shouted loudly.

Click!

A beautiful graduation photo was instantly frozen there.

Everyone's face is filled with anticipation for the future and youthfulness.

Little did they know that after this time, many people might never see each other again in their lives, and some people might never be as happy as they are now.

"Graduation!"

"Relieved~~"

After taking the graduation photos, a group of people were cheering, but Chen Yu suddenly called Wen Zhang and others over. Soon, all the students from Class 02, Performance Department, Grade 1, suddenly stood in front of Chang Li and Liu Tianchi.

"..."

Chang Li and Liu Tianchi were caught off guard by these students.

"bow!"

For the first time, Chen Yu played his role as squad leader and shouted to everyone.

Swah——

Everyone bent down, and Chang Li and Liu Tianchi covered their mouths.

"Goodbye, teacher!"

"Thank you for your hard work, teacher!"

As everyone was shouting, Chen Yu suddenly said to Liu Tianchi, "Teacher Liu, please call the roll again, for the last time!"

"Okay, okay!"

Liu Tianchi choked up and his eyes were slightly red.

“Roll…roll call!”

"You are the best students I, Liu Tianchi, have ever taught!"

"Chen Yu!"

She suddenly looked at Chen Yu with tears in her eyes and began to call out the first person's name.

This time, it is definitely the most complete gathering of all the students in Class 02, Department of Acting, Grade 1, but... it is also the last time!
