Entertaining Children

Shen Hongshu and Sun Zhihao did not stay in the students' seats for too long. After Shen Hongshu discussed with Xiao Yao some general arrangements for the courses and time for the postgraduate period in the future, he got up and left.

After Shen Hongshu and Sun Zhihao's two teachers left, many students from Yandian's school near the seats of Xiao Yao's group also leaned their heads over to strike up a conversation with Xiao Yao and others, and said hello. On the surface, these students from Yandian’s school said that they welcome students like Xiao Yao, who are applying for opera, to come to Yandian to watch the opera. In fact, they mainly want to meet Xiao Yao and get acquainted with each other.

Yandian's students don't care much about star actors, but they still care more about directors, especially Xiao Yao, a promising young director. Taking advantage of this occasion, everyone doesn't mind leaving an impression on him in advance, even with everyone.

With Shen Hongshu coming over for such a chat, coupled with the greetings and greetings from the surrounding students of Yandian's main school, the time before the graduation performance was almost exhausted. Xiao Yao and others checked the time and found that the performance was about to start, so they could only dispel the idea of ​​sneaking into the backstage to watch Zhao Rui.

Within a few minutes, a girl who looked like a student walked onto the stage with a microphone. Seeing the host come on stage, the audience quickly fell silent.

This is a graduation performance, not a cultural gala, and the host mainly serves as an introduction and announcement, without too much nonsense. After a brief introduction, it soon entered the main show, the report performance of the graduates.

The performances in the school theater are basically in the form of drama. This year's Yandian Performance Department is divided into three classes, with a total of more than forty students. This graduation performance is a total of six performances, with an average of seven or eight roles in each play, almost two in a class.

These six plays include self-edited new repertoires, excerpts from classic dramas in this world, and adapted fragments of film and television works, all of which are different in type and content.

The school theater is not as good as the professional drama theater, and the hardware facilities such as stage lighting and lighting are slightly inferior. The students who have just graduated are not as good as the drama actors who perform commercial performances, and the software is also slightly inferior. However, this is a graduation performance, not a commercial performance of a drama, and everyone's requirements for stage performance should be slightly lower.

Yandian is one of the three major film and television academies in China.

With a good reputation, the abilities of the students cultivated are relatively guaranteed. For an on-campus graduation report performance, the six scenes shown still reflect a good level, which made the teachers and students in the audience watch with gusto. After the performance of each repertoire, everyone gave warm applause, including cheers and applause from some students.

The graduation drama of Zhao Rui and his group was an adaptation of a segment of a classic play from the 1990s, and it was arranged to perform in the third stage. Zhao Rui is the star actor among Yandian acting students this year, and he is one of the most well-known ones. It stands to reason that with his rich acting experience, he should play a relatively core main role in the graduation drama, but in this drama, Zhao Rui only played a medium role, at most he can only be regarded as a supporting role with a slightly larger role.

But even if Zhao Rui didn't have the most roles, his performance was still brilliant enough. During the part of Zhao Rui's performance, many school leaders and teachers in the auditorium nodded frequently while watching his performance, and even got closer to exchange comments with each other in a low voice.

Xiao Yao and the others had watched Zhao Rui's rehearsal, and they had known Zhao Rui's role and roles for a long time. They were not surprised that Zhao Rui didn't play the leading role in the play, but they just stood up from their seats after the play ended. Get up and applaud wildly.

After all six plays were performed, Shen Hongshu, the deputy dean of the School of Acting who was in charge of teaching, sat in the audience and made a brief comment on the six plays with a microphone, and finally encouraged the students. The report of this graduation drama The show is over.

That night, Xiao Yao and several young people gathered together to celebrate Zhao Rui after the performance. However, considering that there will be a formal graduation ceremony tomorrow, everyone did not make too much fuss or it was too late.

The next day, Xiao Yao and others came to Yandian as scheduled to attend Zhao Rui's graduation ceremony.

The process of graduation ceremonies in many schools is similar. Gathering in the auditorium, playing the national anthem, speeches by school leaders, awarding graduation certificates or award ceremony, followed by teacher representatives, student representatives or speeches from alumni or current students who graduated in the past, and finally a leadership speech. Basically all alive.

However, as a film and television school, Yandian's graduation ceremony also has some special features. A large screen was set up in the auditorium of the graduation ceremony. Before the school leaders gave their speeches, a film about the film exhibition and future development trends was shown to everyone, which fully demonstrated the characteristics of the film school. After the film was played, two cultural performances were also arranged to show the literary and artistic expertise of art school students.

In this session, Zhao Rui also suggested to Xiao Yao that he would go up and sing inspirational songs related to graduation to the graduates.

With Xiao Yao's current status, reputation and reputation, Zhao Rui is still quite confident that the school will allow Xiao Yao, a student from the same industry, to perform as a special guest at the graduation ceremony, but Xiao Yao thinks that he is neither a graduate , and it wasn't Yandian's students who refused. Of course, the most important thing is that Yandian is also an art school, and there are many students who are good at singing and dancing. Going to perform at Yandian’s graduation ceremony by yourself may give people a feeling of bullying Yandian, which will cause some people’s resentment. disgusted. This is not a competition, so I won't go up to fill this ability.

Not only did Xiao Yao not go to Yandian's graduation ceremony to perform, he didn't even go into the auditorium to watch the ceremony.

Xiao Yao has never taken Yandian's art test, and he never came with Xiao Chengru or Sun Zhihao when he was a child. This is his third visit to Yandian. The first two times were to see Zhao Rui's rehearsal the day before yesterday and to see the graduation drama yesterday. They were a group of people who came and walked together. Xiao Yao has not had the opportunity to visit this famous Chinese art school carefully. The graduation ceremony will take about two hours, which is almost a morning. Xiao Yao didn't go into the auditorium to watch the ceremony, and he certainly wouldn't wait outside the auditorium, so he just wandered around Yandian's campus with his camera equipment on his back.

During the stroll, Xiao Yao, carrying the camera on his back, would take two photos of Yandian’s buildings and landscapes from time to time, just to prepare for Zhao Rui’s graduation photo, and to get familiar with the machine and its feel. It's already summer vacation, but apart from the ongoing graduation ceremony of recent graduates, there are still other people on campus. Seeing handsome men and beautiful women, Xiao Yao also couldn't help taking two photos secretly.

Xiao Yao was wandering around the campus, taking photos by the way, and certainly would not bother to spend time communicating with the subject and asking them to pose for the photo. Xiao Yao casually grabs the natural moment of the subject, and its nature is similar to that of candid photography, but Xiao Yao has no awareness of candid photography, and he does not deliberately hide his figure.

Xiao Yao's candid photography skills are good, and the subjects are usually not spotted, but he is taking candid shots on campus in a grand manner, and it is inevitable that other passers-by will spot him.

Yandian is the cradle of stars. Not only are there many future stars, but you can also often see famous stars. It is an ideal place for paparazzi to take pictures of stars. However, in order to create a comfortable and relaxing environment for students without being disturbed, the school strictly prohibits paparazzi from entering. The school has very strict access management, not to mention the general idlers and paparazzi, even regular media reporters, it is not easy to enter the campus.

Whether it is a student at school or a star who has become famous, the paparazzi are also very repelled when they go to school. So not only is the school strict in access control, even if the school personnel find paparazzi reporters, they will be expelled spontaneously.

Xiao Yao is wearing a baseball cap and carrying a camera bag, obviously dressed like a photographer. But there are many types of photographers. Xiao Yao looks a little sneaky when taking pictures, and the camera covers his face when taking pictures, so he can easily be misunderstood as a paparazzi sneaking into the campus.

Xiao Yao, who looked like a paparazzi reporter, was discovered, which naturally aroused the vigilance of some people. Xiao Yao looked tall, strong, and powerful, but no one came up to trouble him directly, but someone quietly called the school security office and recruited the school security to chase him away.

When being scolded by Yandian's security guards who came from far away, Xiao Yao once had the idea of ​​running away and playing hide-and-seek with the security guards, but thinking about it, he came to help Zhao Rui take graduation photos today, and it was not too bad to be treated as a paparazzi by the security guards. It sounds good, but if you run again, it will make a fuss. So Xiao Yao could only put down the camera, reveal his face, wait patiently for the security guards to approach and explain to them.

Xiao Yao is very famous now, and this face is more useful. After seeing Xiao Yao's face clearly, the attitude of the security guards, who were a little bit annoyed, immediately improved a lot. But to be on the safe side, they still contacted the security at the gate to confirm that Xiao Yao had registered at the gate, and that he was a family member who came to the graduation ceremony.

But a family member of a graduate who came to attend the graduation ceremony, instead of going to the auditorium to watch the ceremony, wandered around the campus and secretly took pictures? The security guard still had some doubts about Xiao Yao's behavior. For this matter, Xiao Yao explained that he wanted to visit the campus and take some photos as souvenirs.

If it is really a family member of a graduate, it is normal and allowed to take pictures of school buildings, or even take selfies as a souvenir, but it is not right to secretly take pictures of other people or celebrities. For safety's sake, the security guard still proposed to check Xiao Yao's camera. In this matter, Xiao Yao didn't have any temper, and immediately took out the photos in the camera and showed them to the security guards.

In the photos in the camera, there are some photos of people and buildings. The security guards paid more attention to the photos of people, and found that one was a celebrity with almost no fame, and the other was basically ordinary photos of people walking on the road. There were no malicious photos involving sensitive parts, at best, they were equivalent to ordinary street photos, and Xiao Yao was not asked to delete the photos in the end.

But those security guards didn't ask, but Xiao Yao took the initiative to delete all the portrait photos in front of the security guards. Anyway, he was just taking photos for fun, and didn't plan to publish all those photos.

Later, when a security guard casually chatted about the incident with a student in the photo, the student complained to the security guard, blaming the security guard for being troublesome. Of course it's okay to catch the paparazzi, but Xiao Yao is definitely not a paparazzi! Now that I recognized Xiao Yao, why did I have to look at the photos in his camera? Xiao Yao is a well-known photographer, no matter how many people want to ask him to take pictures, they can't get it. Although it was taken without knowing it, since it is not an ugly photo, it will be a great thing for Xiao Yao when he comes out! And you just said what you said, why do you need to emphasize how beautiful Xiao Yao took my pictures? Isn't this just annoying!

Of course, these are things for later.

Xiao Yao explained clearly to the security guard. After the security guard was beaten away, some students who had been watching from the side came over to say hello to Xiao Yao. After dealing with these students, it was almost the end of the graduation ceremony. Xiao Yao put away his camera and hurried back to the outside of the school's auditorium.

Xiao Yao found a shady place outside the auditorium to rest for a while, and the door of the auditorium opened. A group of students wearing academic uniforms rushed out. After Xiao Yao found the figures of Zhao Rui and others, he quickly got up and greeted them.

After the school's graduation ceremony, the next step is to organize activities in units of departments and classes, mainly taking group photos. Different departments and majors have already found their own photo areas. After leaving the auditorium, everyone separated by department and major.

Xiao Yao didn't know the group photo shooting location of the Acting Department, so he rushed back early just to transfer with them, so as not to have to find each other later.

After arriving at the place, the first thing is to take a group photo of the whole department. The teachers were sitting, and the students were either squatting or standing, surrounding the teachers in the middle.

Film and television schools like Yandian don’t need to hire photographers outside. For the graduation photo shoot this time, all the juniors in the photography department were basically recruited, and they were divided up by the graduation classes of various departments and majors. The photographer hired by the Acting Department is also a third-year student in the Photography Department. His photography skills must be good, but when he saw Xiao Yao standing among the family members of the students, and he was still carrying a camera bag, he still couldn’t help it. Many students booed and asked Xiao Yao to help them take this group photo.

Although the third-year photography student with the camera was pulled to help take graduation group photos, he didn't have any resentment towards the behavior of the brothers and sisters from the acting department who changed their generals. Come and shoot.

If it was just the request of Zhao Rui and his classmates, Xiao Yao could choose to ignore it, but when the teachers of Yandian's acting department also invited him, Xiao Yao couldn't ignore it.

Xiao Yao agreed to take pictures, but he didn't completely replace the original photographer. He suggested that the two of them take a group photo of the whole department and class of the acting department together, and everyone takes their own photos, and the last two photos will be given to everyone.

The third-year student from the Department of Photography was invited by the Department of Acting. Xiao Yao did this to save his face. Of course, the teachers and students of the Department of Acting had no reason not to agree.

After taking the group photo of the whole department, the two photographers took group photos of the three classes respectively. Then, it's time to move freely.
