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

Chapter 17 Use, Experience Card
"Ok?"

Su Wanyu was stunned for a moment, but nodded subconsciously and smiled at the man: "Yes, my son!"

"Is this the audition photo?"

The guy asked secretly.

Su Wanyu shook her head: "I don't know either, I just approached her out of the blue!"

She didn't say anything about Zhang Yimou.

"Dad, let's go!"

An art student wearing a baseball cap next to him suddenly spoke to that person.

"Don't worry!"

The parent of the student taking the art exam turned around and said something, but his eyes were always on Fu Lulu who was chatting with Chen Jin. He felt that she looked familiar.

However, Su Wanyu found this guy's son equally familiar.

Liu Xing?!
Su Wanyu remembered that she had watched the TV show "Home with Kids".

He was just much taller than he looked on TV, and Su Wanyu almost couldn’t recognize him.

"Okay, bye, handsome boy!"

Fu Lulu finished watching the vlog and photos she had just taken, then smiled and waved at Chen Jin.

Chen Jin gave her a really good impression, a sunny, cheerful and handsome guy, not like an art exam candidate at all.

These days, many art exam candidates are very reserved. If they knew they were going to audition, they would act even more cautious, which would actually put them at a disadvantage.

After being reminded by her, Chen Jin relaxed instead. This is a good acting talent.

"Goodbye, Miss Director!"

Chen Jin was very polite and made Fu Lulu smile again.

Seeing Fu Lulu was about to leave, "Liu Xing's father" who was standing next to Su Wanyu trotted over.

"Director Fu, do you still recognize me?"

Liu Xing's father greeted Fu Lulu. Fu Lulu raised her head and frowned: "Who are you?"

"Zhang Yishan, I am Zhang Yishan's father!"

"Zhang Xiaowu!"

"Shi Yishan auditioned for the role in Curse of the Golden Flower!"

Zhang Xiaowu said hurriedly, but at this time Su Wanyu pointed at Zhang Yishan and whispered to Chen Jin who came to her side: "Son, Liu Xing, that person is Liu Xing from "Home with Kids"!"

"is it?"

Chen Jin looked at Zhang Yishan's back. The guy was playing with his mobile phone with his head down, while his dad was chatting with Fu Lulu.

"This assistant director of Zhang Yimou seems to be real?"

"Did she say anything to you?"

Su Wanyu felt that things were somewhat out of her plan. She was originally preparing to go back and book tickets, so how come a director suddenly showed up?
And let your own son audition?

Is he really going into the entertainment industry?

"I didn't say anything, so the identity should be real!"

"But whether I can try it or not is hard to say!"

Chen Jin explained the general process, and Su Wanyu finally felt normal: "I thought I could really go to act..."

"Mom, how can it be so easy?"

"I do think so!"

Chen Jin looked and found that only 1% of the task had been completed, but there was still 99% to go!
But if he really passes the audition, it would be considered a step towards success. Even if he doesn't play the male lead, just the fact that he has participated in a Zhang Yimou movie is a very good resume.

This start will definitely kill 99% of the students in the same class at Beijing Film Academy.

Although Zhang Yimou's movies have a high probability of being bad, "Under the Hawthorn Tree" is okay. Chen Jin knows the rating of this movie and it is not as outrageously bad as "Three Guns".

It is considered an above-average art film.

As long as Zhang Yimou doesn't make commercial films, his quality is still there, whether it's the picture, plot or character creation. This is not Chen Jin's evaluation, but the opinion of some netizens about him in his future autobiographical films.

Watching Fu Lulu walking out of the school while chatting with Zhang Yishan and his son, Chen Jin didn't think much about it and walked towards the hotel with Su Wanyu.

Tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock, he will go to take part in the preliminary examination of the acting department of the Central Academy of Drama.

Although Chen Jin was very interested in this sudden audition, he also knew that the choice was in the hands of others. He had no choice but to wait for the very slim probability.

His top priority right now is to pass the art exam.

……

At night, Chen Jin, who had just completed his daily actor routine, lay there, looking at the ceiling of the room.

In fact, a virtual interface of the system appeared in front of him, and the 'Random Character Experience Card' on it was emitting a faint light.

Su Wanyu, who was reading a book next to her, obviously couldn't see it.

"Do you want to give it a try?"

Chen Jin was very conflicted. He had been coveting this character experience card for a long time.

But I am afraid that if I use it now, I will regret it later.

"With my current ability, I should be able to pass the preliminary examination of the Central Academy of Drama, right?"

Although the art exam of the Central Academy of Drama is known to be the most difficult among the three major performances, in addition to poetry recitation tomorrow, there will also be a group skit performance on a given topic. This part will of course depend on a candidate's ability to perform on the spot.

What determines a good actor is not how well he can act when there is a script, but how well he can handle the situation without a script.

This kind of impromptu skit is designed to test a candidate's impromptu performance ability.

Whether you have a talent for acting or not, the art exam teacher can actually tell at a glance based on this one item alone.

There is a rumor about the Central Academy of Drama that if you can pass the preliminary examination of the acting department of the Central Academy of Drama, you can basically get into other art schools.

In other words, even for Beijing Film Academy and Shanghai Theatre Academy, unless the students were not admitted by the Central Academy of Drama, all the other students were selected by the Central Academy of Drama.

This is the status of the Performance Department of the Central Academy of Drama in the industry.

Dugu Qiubai has no rivals.

When it comes to art schools that Chen Jin wants to apply to, the Central Academy of Drama is of course his first choice.

Beijing Film Academy is actually a substitute.

"I remember in the future autobiographical movie, I came to the Central Academy of Drama alone to take the preliminary examination for the first time. What was the topic?"

Chen Jin opened the system again and viewed his original life trajectory.

The scene of my first time taking the Central Academy of Drama’s art exam is of course very detailed.

[Use your own performance to prove what kind of place this is? Beach, station, church, park, cemetery, school...]

The chief examiner is Jiang Wenli!

A very famous actress in China, she is also an acting teacher at the Central Academy of Drama. Her performance as Xiao Douzi's mother in "Farewell My Concubine", where she cried and fawned on Master Guan to accept her son, can be regarded as the highlight of her acting career.

It is also included in the relevant performance courses.

This woman’s acting skills are quite amazing, and Chen Jin’s mother’s generation likes her very much.

Many parents born in the 80s and 90s have watched the movies she starred in, such as "The Mansion Gate", "Golden Wedding" and "Chinese Style Divorce".

"She may not be the examiner tomorrow, right?"

"Then the proposition may also change..."

Chen Jin didn't know whether the questions for the preliminary examination of the Central Academy of Drama were set by the examiner himself or were prescribed questions, so he couldn't determine whether it was still this one.

After thinking it over, Chen Jin finally decided to be on the safe side.

He decided to give this random character experience card a try to boost his confidence in his performance.

[Use random character experience cards, yes or no? ]

"Yes!"

Chen Jin muttered to himself, and suddenly everything in front of his eyes went dark, and he fell asleep all of a sudden.

It's like being hypnotized!
