I was just thinking about taking the arts exam and you said I've been playing supporting roles

Chapter 155 The whole audience was boiling! ! ! [Added]

Third grade office, Chengbei Primary School, Suzhou.

"Let's start, Teacher Su, hurry up!"

A teacher urged Su Wanyu. Fortunately, there was no class at that time. Many teachers gathered in front of a computer to watch the live broadcast of the Beijing Film Academy's 2010 opening ceremony.

Chen Jin is now very famous not only in this primary school, but also in the whole city of Su.

In the past, there were teachers who acted in one way behind others’ backs and another in front of others, always thinking about ruining the reputation of Su Wanyu’s child. Now, they are eager for Chen Jin to sign for them.

Everyone is like this.

People are jealous when they are a little bit prosperous, but when they reach a certain level, they start saying nice things.

I can't feel jealous at all, we are on completely different levels.

Su Wanyu's child was the top scorer in the college entrance examination and got full marks for his composition. A few days ago, he also won the Venice Award. How dare these teachers say anything nonsense? Every day, apart from flattering Su Wanyu, they would come up to him and tell him some gossip they had just heard in the entertainment industry.

Teachers are human beings too, they also want to eat melons.

And now, when hearing Su Wanyu talking about Chen Jin's opening ceremony, which teacher would not want to take a look?

Even though they knew that this was Su Wanyu's little trick to show off, they still cooperated with her performance.

Let’s coax the celebrity’s mother into pouting her lips first.

"This is indeed the cradle of stars. I haven't seen any ugly ones here!"

"But Teacher Su's Chen Jin is still the most handsome!"

"We just gave him several seconds of live footage, and he got the most screen time..."

"They are all beauties, each one is pretty, so their families must be pretty good!"

"Hey, if you don't have some looks, you really can't get into the entertainment industry..."

"I wonder which directors will benefit from these girls in the future?"

"Can't Teacher Su's Xiao Jin get some benefit?"

"Bah, bah, bah, if my little Jin wants to do this, I will break his legs!"

Su Wanyu protested immediately, and all the teachers laughed.

"Okay, the ceremony begins!"

"Look at this school ceremony. It's so grand and elegant. I can even see Xiaoyanzi..."

"And that guy from The Story of a Noble Family, Yan Xi, the one with Yan Xi!"

"And that overwhelming Guo Furong, her mouth is so big!"

"Ha ha!"

Everyone was talking at once, and a male teacher suddenly asked, "Why isn't there any Liu Yifei? She also graduated from Beijing Film Academy?"

"No invitation~~"

"Oh, it would be nice if she were here, I like her so much!"

"I also like her roles as Zhao Linger and Xiao Long Nu!"

"It's just so-so. I still think Xiaoyanzi is the prettiest..."

A few people were chatting and the conversation went off track, but at this time, the opening ceremony of Beijing Film Academy was proceeding in an orderly manner.

The first thing to do is of course to introduce some of the guests attending the ceremony. In addition to Zhang Yimou and others, there are also leaders from the Film Bureau, Culture, and Radio, Film and Television... This is directly under the Beijing Film Academy.

Of course, they were not sitting in the guest seats, but on the ceremonial stage.

Next to Zhang Huijun and the secretary.

Some specially invited reporters were taking pictures below.

Then, it was the leaders’ speeches, not the school leaders, but the relevant leaders, the most important one started speaking.

One by one, it was their turn. Not to mention Chen Jin, all the students were almost sleepy. But they had to listen because the live camera was there and it could capture you even if you lowered your head. So all the students sat upright and pretended to listen very seriously.

It’s been 40 minutes and the leader hasn’t spoken yet. Many students are feeling hungry.

The ceremony was very boring and annoying.

After the key leader finished speaking, Zhang Huijun had to continue singing praises.

Beijing Film Academy has been so awesome in recent years, producing so many famous actors and directors, as well as so many works. Most importantly, Chen Jin won awards at the three major film festivals, the first time for an acting school to win such an award.

clap clap clap!
This definitely deserves applause, and all the teachers watching the live broadcast were also very excited.

Wow, the principal mentioned so many celebrities, and Teacher Su’s child was also mentioned?

Doesn’t that mean that little Chen Jin is similar to these stars?
Su Wanyu was really overjoyed.

This kid told me it was just a rookie award, but the principal is almost slapping his goal in my face.

We held this ceremony just for this little bit of vinegar and made these dumplings.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that?

"I emphasized that on purpose. Did you hear it?"

As expected of a Chinese teacher, he is really good at summarizing the key points.

The other teachers immediately agreed: "Yes, the principal's purpose is to highlight this award!"

"Teacher Su, your child should go on stage to speak, right?"

"Hey, if my child could have such a moment, I would be willing to live ten years less!"

"So many celebrity leaders are watching here. I just heard there are also leaders from the Radio, Film and Television Bureau and the Education Bureau?"

"It seems that these two departments built the Nortel, so they must be present..."

"Here comes the student representative to speak!"

Su Wanyu actually heard it too, and quickly pricked up her ears and moved closer to the computer.

At this time, the secretary general also held the microphone in his hand and said loudly: "Next, please invite the undergraduate and junior college student representative, Chen Jin from the first class of the Performance Department of 2010, to come to the stage to speak. Welcome!"

Beep beep beep!
There was collective applause below, and someone was obviously asking Zhang Yimou if this was the leading male role in his new drama.

Zhang Yimou was talking excitedly.

Chen Jin, wearing the white cultural sleeves of Beijing Film Academy, walked towards the podium step by step.

At this time, all the students in the 10th grade acting class of the Central Academy of Drama gathered in front of Dilraba's mobile phone to watch the live broadcast of CCTV.

It can also be viewed on CCTV.com.

Zhu Yanmanzi pursed her lips with a hint of smile on her lips, and there was only that figure in her beautiful eyes: "Come on, Chen Jin!"

"Son, come on!"

Su Wanyu was also there cheering Chen Jin on. At this time, Chen Jin had already walked to the podium and stood still.

With nothing in my hands, of course I was preparing an impromptu speech.

If it were any other school's opening ceremony, students would have been dissed if they had behaved like this.

But this is Beijing Film Academy, and Chen Jin is a student in the acting department.

For an actor, going off script is actually a manifestation of the most basic line ability.

How can you perform and say your lines if you don't speak from the script?

"Dear teachers, leaders, and classmates, hello everyone. I am Chen Jin, a student of the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy, Class of 2010!"

“I am very honored to be able to speak at the opening ceremony as a representative of the freshmen!”

Chen Jin looked at the students present, and his voice was very clear. When many freshmen heard this line, they knew what he was going to say next, which was definitely welcoming everyone to the big family of Beijing Film Academy. However, Chen Jin's line skills were indeed very good.

Even students can hear it, let alone teachers. He can make many girls raise their heads involuntarily.

“I want to be an actor!”

As soon as Chen Jin said this, not only the students, but also several school leaders looked at him.

This kid doesn't play by the rules?

"The school asked me to give a speech at the opening ceremony. After thinking about it, I decided to talk about my ideals!"

"After entering the acting department, I believe that everyone is like me. Even though we know that we have thousands of choices, we will always choose only that one path!"

“Become an actor!”

Every word Chen Jin spoke was very clear.

“This has been my dream since I was a kid!”

"I used to think that an actor just needs to play the role well, but now I find that it may not be that simple!"

"Of course, I'm just stating my own opinions!"

Chen Jin glanced at everyone in the audience and shrugged: "I think that as an actor, in addition to looking straight or looking up, we should also look down more often!"

"Look down on suffering and pain, look down on corners and cracks. In addition to the flourishing flowers and scenery, we should also see the warmth and coldness of the world. This is the ethics of an actor, because in the future you may not only play good people, but also bad people, rich people, and poor people!"

“So what we should have, in addition to a broad mind and a compassionate creative soul!”

"The ability advantages we have gained from our superior environment are not meant to be superior to those who have not enjoyed the same resources!"

"This is an actor's duty, and it is also the conscience that artists should have!"

Chen Jin smiled slightly when he said this.

He actually told the truth, but I don't know whether anyone believed him.

"..."

Many students pricked up their ears, while some curled their lips in disdain, but the school leaders all listened carefully. The guests in the guest seats were chatting among themselves. Only Zhang Yimou squinted his eyes, as if thinking about something.

"There was a passage in the movie "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" that touched me deeply!"

"He said, I hope you can live your best life!"

“I hope you see things that surprise you!”

"I want you to experience emotions you've never experienced before!"

“I hope you can meet some people who think differently!”

“I hope you’ll be proud of your life!”

"If you find yourself not yet there, I hope you will have the courage..."

"Start! From! the! Beginning! Again!"

Chen Jin finished speaking this line in one breath, and the only sound above the entire playground was his somewhat deafening voice.

The scene also became much quieter.

Many students of Beijing Film Academy have begun to empathize with Chen Jin's remarks.

This guy, what he said... is pretty good?

"..."

Su Wanyu actually cried a little after hearing this.

My son is so obsessed with an actor?!

Fortunately, he didn't let him choose another path.

Zhu Yanmanzi was the same, tears were welling up in her eyes.

My boyfriend said it very well.

“When I took the art exam, my parents were actually very opposed to it!”

"But I follow my heart!"

"I have figured out the script of my own life - it is not a sequel to my parents', not a prequel to my children's, and certainly not a side story to your friends'!"

"You might as well be bold and courageous in your life, because you are destined to lose it!"

“If there is a miracle in this world, it is just another name for hard work!”

“The most difficult stage in life is not when no one understands you, but when you don’t understand yourself!”

Chen Jin's voice gradually became louder, and he said with a smile: "So, the person I admire most is myself!"

“Only I can help myself get through the mountains and overcome the difficulties again and again.”

“Among thousands of choices, I always choose to do what I think is worthwhile. I may do it beautifully or mess it up, but it doesn’t matter. What matters is that I have tried my best for it!”

"No matter what the result is, I have been very brave and I have no regrets!"

Chen Jin said this and spread his hands confidently.

"At the end of my speech, please allow me to say something very arrogant to myself!"

"Chen Jin!"

Chen Jin suddenly said loudly: "Listen carefully, you have to become the light, not——"

"Follow the light!"

boom!
Countless students in the audience were completely ignited by this last sentence.

Damn, this is so exciting.

You want to be the light, not follow the light?!
Arrogant?
A little bit!

But it feels great, really great!

Which student here wouldn't want to shout this out loud? !

But only Chen Jin said it with surging lines, just like the line in League of Legends, "The day the broken sword is reforged, the day the knight returns."

It has the power to touch people's hearts.

This is the charm of the lines and the resonance of the performance.

"..."

Zhang Huijun smiled and shook his head, and Zhang Yimou also burst into laughter.

This kid is really not that simple.

"My speech is over, thank you everyone!"

Chen Jin bowed and then politely walked down from the podium.

Pah~pah~pah~pah~~
At first it was the students in Class 1, and then all the students in the audience, as well as the school leaders on the podium and the guests in the guest seats, all started to applaud.

Is that good?

Chen Jin didn’t know.

But he said everything he wanted to say.

This is really his understanding of himself and as an actor at this stage. Maybe it is not deep enough, and maybe he may not be able to do it yet.

But it doesn’t matter, there is still a long way to go.

Because performance never ends!
