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

Chapter 26 Empress Dowager Su was really shocked this time!

"Dangerous, dan... dangerous, dangerous!"

"Darkness, dar...darkness, darkness, gloom!"

"..."

At night, Chen Jin was in the hotel room, carrying out the daily routine of an actor.

The words were read without rhythm and weakly, even though I was practicing pronunciation.

Later, he will go downstairs and run around the hotel to exercise his body.

The actor’s four daily exercises, which he obviously doesn’t forget, involve continuous rewards and “check-ins”!
Although the voice, stage, behavior and performance are still at the proficient level, it has only been more than half a month and has achieved such results, which is enough to prove that the system's rewards are still very strong... In fact, Chen Jin has already felt it from the role experience.

But his dialogue skills did not improve significantly this time. He used to be able to add at least 1 point after reading for half an hour, but now he does not move at all.

Of course, it’s not the system that has a problem, but Chen Jin and the system... have a problem!

41%...45%...56%...63%...

The system is like a lunatic. The progress bar of the task jumps every few minutes, and jumps every few minutes, like an intermittent lunatic.

It was so severe that Chen Jin couldn't calm down and concentrate on reading the lines at all, as his mind was completely on the progress bar.

He wanted to see how far the task progress could jump.

In this way, Chen Jin watched it jump for more than half an hour.

99%!

Not moving anymore.

After a full half hour, the progress bar finally jumped to 99%.

Just when Chen Jin thought it was about to reach 100%, the progress bar didn't move forward at all.

Chen Jin waited for 5 minutes, but the progress bar did not reach 100%. Instead, he heard familiar footsteps coming from outside the door.

Swish!
He immediately sat up straight and began to recite English in a rhythmic manner.

Su Wanyu had just finished a phone call with Chen Jin's father and told him that Chen Jin might pass the art exam.

Unexpectedly, Chen Xianqi, who had always been on the same side with me, actually supported my son's art exam behavior? !

Is this because I'm not at home? Is this against the will of heaven?
Su Wanyu was in a bad mood. Just as she was about to pick up the room card to swipe the door, her cell phone suddenly rang again.

Another strange number from the imperial capital?

Did this kid really do so well in the art exam that so many agencies came to him?
Su Wanyu stood at the door, staring at the incoming call on her cell phone, and finally decided to listen to what Chen Jin had to say.

beep!

Swipe the card to open the door.

For the first time, Su Wanyu listened carefully to Chen Jin's English pronunciation. Although the words still sounded like the local accent of southern Jiangsu, why... did it sound like Suzhou Pingtan? !
It's just that some words that are clearly pronounced incorrectly sound nice, but what the hell is going on?!
This kid didn’t read English words like this before?
However, Su Wanyu quite likes this way of pronunciation now. At least the voice is loud and clear, which is much better than the previous pretentious and unclear recitation like a monk chanting scriptures.

"Is it true that the pronunciation has also changed?"

"What vocal technique did you learn secretly?"

Su Wanyu was secretly guessing and listening to Chen Jin's reading, so much so that she even forgot about the call.

By the time I realized what was happening, the other person had already hung up.

"Xiao Jin, stop!"

Su Wanyu sat down at the head of the bed and called out to Chen Jin.

Chen Jin stopped and turned around: "Madam, what's the matter?"

"Be serious!"

This kid is out of tune all day long, and Su Wanyu is worried to death.

"Another strange phone call from the imperial capital!"

"I guess it's from another agency. Do you want to take it?"

Although Su Wanyu said this, she sighed and said, "Son, have you really thought it through? Are you going to enter the entertainment industry?"

"Well, I've thought about it!"

Chen Jin was very serious this time, and he was very handsome when he was serious.

Sunny and handsome.

Being frivolous is being cool and handsome. For the two feelings, please refer to A-Zu in "New Police Story" and the actor who played A-Zu.

The cool and naughty one is A-Zu, the serious one is Wu Yanzu, and they can switch at any time.

"Hey, what's this entertainment industry? Mom heard it's very chaotic!"

Su Wanyu was still very worried. She really wanted Chen Jin to take normal academic courses, even if she could just become a teacher like her. But she was really... very worried about the entertainment industry.

But it goes without saying that Chen Jin was able to pass the art exam because she had worked very hard in private.

The fact that his son could make such a change for one thing is enough to show his love and persistence for being an actor and making movies.

So she is conflicted.

Deep down, he definitely didn't want Chen Jin to be an actor; but from a mother's perspective, she felt that she should support her child's dream.

"Mom, don't worry, no matter how chaotic it is, I am still your son!" "Haha!"

Su Wanyu raised her head and stroked her hair. When she was young, Empress Dowager Su was also a beauty: "Don't think that your mother is a teacher and that she is stubborn. It's not necessarily true!"

"It's possible that she will become my daughter in the future!"

Chen Jin: “…”

No, mom, your ideas are so avant-garde, even more awesome than the LGBT in future autobiographical movies!
"Do you want to return this call?"

Su Wanyu shook her cell phone, and the next second, as luck would have it, the call came in again.

"It seems that she is very persistent!"

"Mom, give it to me, I'll tell them!"

"Turn on speakerphone, I'm afraid they'll trick you... Your dad said this circle is very complicated!"

"it is good!"

Chen Jin took the phone, swiped upwards, and turned on the hands-free function.

"Hello, is this Chen Jin's mother? I was here a few days ago--"

"Director, Miss?"

Chen Jin recognized Fu Lulu's voice immediately, but his eyes were fixed on the motionless 99% task progress bar.

No way?
Isn't this the audition?

Audition for Zhang Yimou's "Under the Hawthorn Tree"?

"She was just discussing with Zhang Yimou whether to ask me to audition, so the progress bar is jumping so fast?"

Chen Jin reacted instantly, but he heard Fu Lulu's smiling voice: "Oh, you still remember me? Not bad, not bad, are you free tomorrow? Director Zhang Yimou wants to see you!"

Bang!

That was the sound of Su Wanyu's heels hitting the wooden floor of the hotel.

She was originally sitting in the common sitting posture for teachers with one leg crossed over the other, but she was so frightened by Fu Lulu's words that she couldn't help but slam her foot on the floor.

A completely unconscious action.

Fu Lulu could guess why this happened.

Anyone who hears that Zhang Yimou wants to see him would probably have a big reaction, right?

She thought it was sent by Chen Jin, but Chen Jin's expression was much calmer than Su Wanyu's: "Okay, what time tomorrow?"

"Afternoon, how about 2pm?"

"Okay, I'm not free this morning either. The results of the first round of the Beijing Film Academy Arts Examination are out!"

Chen Jin seemed to say this subconsciously.

Fu Lulu smiled: "Really?"

"Well, I hope I can pass..."

"Want to hear the truth?"

Fu Lulu chuckled and didn't keep anyone in suspense: "From my perspective as an assistant director, it shouldn't be a problem for you to pass the initial test!"

"is it?"

Chen Jin also asked back.

"Haha, then sister, I wish you a successful first test in advance. Remember to tell me the result!"

"Do you have the results for the preliminary exam?"

Chen Jin really didn't know this.

"Yes, but the specific scores are not listed, but there is a ranking... Did you go to the bulletin board on the B floor of the art exam?"

"Yes!"

"Then take a look at which row and which line your name is on!"

Fu Lulu seemed very experienced. After all, she was also a graduate of the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy: "Generally, the first batch is the group with the best grades. Basically... they can pass the three tests!"

"The first column?"

"Yes, the first column contains the best performers in the initial test!"

"Okay, thank you sis!"

Chen Jin even changed her address. Of course Fu Lulu could tell, but she didn't care. Many artists in this circle are so smart.

People with low emotional intelligence can’t survive in this circle.

"Okay, then...see you tomorrow!"

"See you tomorrow afternoon!"

Chen Jin waited until the other party hung up the call before sliding the phone down.

He turned around and was about to return the phone to his mother, but he saw Empress Dowager Su looking straight at him. There was an expression on her face that Chen Jin had never seen before.

It was a complex expression of shock, disbelief, how could it be possible... a myriad of emotions mixed together!
