Shadow of Chinese Entertainment

Chapter 33: So Stable

Professor An smiled and nodded, looking at Hu Xiaobei gently, and slowly said: "Xiaobei, I heard that you are the top scorer in this year's college entrance examination. You are indeed a young talent.

The Beijing Film Academy you chose is certainly a good school, with a unique focus on the arts. However, Jiangnan University also has a profound heritage, rich academic resources, and has cultivated countless pillars of talent in various fields.

As he spoke, he pulled over a chair and sat down slowly, as if he was about to start a long conversation with a good friend.

Director Li quickly continued, "Yes, yes, Xiaobei, you know the situation of Jiangda University. Even the Foreign Languages ​​College of Jiangda is among the best in the country.

Not only is the major ranked top, but there are also many international exchange programs, and students go abroad for internships every year!

"With your qualifications, if you enter a foreign language college and then develop a career in diplomacy, you will definitely have a bright future. Isn't it better than going to Beijing Film Academy?" He said, gesturing with his hands, his face full of earnestness.

Hu Xiaobei frowned slightly, looking embarrassed, and after a pause he said, "Director Li, Professor An, I am very grateful for your appreciation.

I grew up in Jiangcheng and went to school at the Affiliated High School of Jiangda. Jiangda’s nature is great and I yearn for it.

However, I have already decided to join the film and television industry. Beijing Film Academy is my dream school. I have already imagined the scenes of learning professional knowledge and participating in filming practices there, so..."

The admissions staff of Beijing Film Academy were listening outside the room, with a slight smile on their lips and a smug look on their faces, but they did not dare to interrupt and just waited quietly for the outcome of this "confrontation".

Professor An raised his hand to adjust his glasses, his expression still calm, and said slowly: "Xiaobei, dreams are precious, and we respect them very much.

Our Jiangnan University is inclusive and has done an excellent job in interdisciplinary integration. Even if you are passionate about film and television, you need to have sufficient cultural background to better put your ideas into practice.

At Jiangnan University, you can also pursue a relevant dual degree. Leveraging Jiangnan University's profound liberal arts foundation and robust international exchange platform, you can travel abroad more often to gain experience and further study at a top film school, broadening your international perspective. This will greatly aid your film and television career. I hope you will consider this matter again."

Director Li nodded repeatedly, looking at Hu Xiaobei eagerly, and added: "Yes, Xiaobei, give yourself more choices. Jiangda is sincerely looking forward to your joining.

Our Jiangnan University has a profound humanistic foundation, and many majors can be linked to the film and television industry.

If you come to Jiangnan University, we can create a personalized training program specifically for you, so that you can not only learn solid humanities knowledge, but also have full access to resources in film and television creation. Maybe you can develop more all-round than at Beijing Film Academy.

Moreover, our Jiangnan University has a large platform, with many opportunities for communication and cooperation both domestically and internationally, which will be of great help to your future development in the film and television industry..."

The Jiangda duo has been in there for almost half an hour, chatting happily, and has not come out yet.

The two admissions officers from Beijing Film Academy felt quite uneasy as they listened to the increasingly heated conversation in the room.

Whether it is the previous famous universities or the current Jiangnan University, they are all unattainable mountains and rivers for them at Beijing Film Academy.

After all, the Affiliated High School is the blood of Jiangnan University, and Hu Xiaobei studied and lived there for three years.

Faced with such a strong opponent, they could not guarantee whether Hu Xiaobei would change his mind at the last minute.

Hu Xiaobei frowned slightly and fell into deep thought. He really didn't expect that the teachers at Jiangda University would value him so much and offer so many attractive conditions.

He sensed the situation outside the house again, and then showed some hesitation, not knowing how to make a decision.

Professor An looked at Hu Xiaobei's tangled expression and said softly, "Xiaobei, we don't want to force you to change your mind, we just hope you can think about it more.

After all, this is a matter of great importance to your future. No matter what decision you make, we respect you. We just want you to know that the door of Jiangnan University is always open to you."

Hu Xiaobei raised his head and looked at Professor An's sincere eyes, then looked at Director Li's expectant expression.

He sighed, and said slowly as if he was having difficulty making a decision: "Director Li, Professor An, thank you for your consideration. I... I'll think about it again." Director Li and Professor An looked at each other. Although they did not get a definite answer, at least Hu Xiaobei did not directly refuse, and he felt a glimmer of hope in his heart.

So he nodded and said, "Okay, Xiaobei, then you think about it carefully. We are waiting for your good news."

Hu Xiaobei nodded and made his own promise: "I need to think about it carefully, but in my heart I still want to stick to the path of film and television.

But if I really change my mind, I will give priority to Jiangda."

Both of them were satisfied with the result. They had received a certain degree of commitment, which was much better than those famous schools and exceeded their expectations.

They greeted each other with a smile and left the office with a mixture of anticipation and trepidation.

The two admissions officers from Beijing Film Academy looked at the departing figures of Professor An and Director Li from Jiangnan University. The smugness on their faces had long since disappeared, leaving only worry in their hearts.

"Hey, Jiangda's offensive is quite fierce. They're talking about their background, making conditions, and even saying they can customize a training plan. I'm really nervous."

The older admissions teacher frowned, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and his voice was full of worry.

The younger one kept wiping the sweat from his palms, muttering, "The Affiliated High School has a deep connection with Jiangnan University. Hu Xiaobei has been here for three years, so the emotional foundation is there.

If they really persuade us, how will we explain ourselves when we get back? We will have to commit suicide by disembowelment!"

The two of them were nervous, took a deep breath, straightened their clothes, composed themselves, knocked on the door, and after getting a response, they slowly walked into the house.

The older admissions teacher spoke first, a smile on his face, trying to make his tone sound friendly and enthusiastic: "Student Hu Xiaobei, I finally get to talk to you alone!

You were longing for our Beijing Film Academy before, and that was the right choice. Our Beijing Film Academy is a real golden signboard in the film and television industry.

Take the faculty for example. The teachers are all big names in the industry. Those who have directed hit films and won international awards all teach in our school.

If you aspire to join the film and television industry, and you can study scriptwriting and camera scheduling with them on a daily basis, you will learn the most cutting-edge and practical practical skills, which will give you a head start compared to others.

The young admissions teacher quickly chimed in, his eyes sparkling, and gestured with his hands as he spoke, "Also, Xiaobei, the practical resources within our Beijing Film Academy are unique among universities nationwide.

The school has its own exclusive studio and post-production center, and the equipment is all top-notch, comparable to that of professional film and television production companies outside.

From the moment you enter school, you can participate in various on-campus movies, TV series, and short film projects. From screenwriter, director to starring role, you can try any role you want. It is difficult to find such a practical place to practice elsewhere.

And with the connections at Beijing Film Academy, there are plenty of internship opportunities. If you want, there’s no crew in China we can’t get into.”

The older teacher patted his thigh lightly, as if suddenly remembering something, and added excitedly, "Xiaobei, our Beijing Film Academy has in-depth cooperation with many top film schools around the world, such as exchange student programs and joint training programs, which are very rich and colorful.

If you want to study abroad and broaden your international horizons, the school will fully support you and will provide you with recommendations, formalities, and other support.

When you return after completing your studies, you will be a sought-after talent in the film and television industry, both at home and abroad!
This avenue of stardom, the Beijing Film Academy can pave a solid path for you, so you must be resolute in your original choice."

Seeing the Beijing Film Academy duo pouring out promises without asking for money.

Hu Xiaobei sat on the chair, his fingers tapping the table unconsciously. Although his face looked solemn and thoughtful, he was actually very calm in his heart: This game is a win.
