After announcing the list of outstanding graduates and awarding honorary certificates on the spot, the next link is for representatives of each group to speak on stage. The host first invited the teacher representatives who attended the school to come to the stage, and then the alumni representatives who came to the graduation ceremony to speak on stage.

Regardless of ordinary colleges or art colleges, alumni representatives may not necessarily speak at the graduation ceremony, but teacher representatives and graduate representatives are essential. Under normal circumstances, the two are next to each other, and even if they have to be separated, only one alumni representative will speak in the middle.

After the teacher representatives and alumni representatives spoke, the student representatives should speak next. The teacher representative is a professor from the School of Performing Arts, while the alumni representative is a well-known director who graduated from the drama. The candidates for the two were not known to the students in advance, but when it comes to this year's graduate representative, everyone knows that there is no one other than Xiao Yao. After the speeches of the previous two people, many people are also looking forward to what Xiao Yao, a young man who has spoken at the United Nations, will say at the graduation ceremony.

But what most people at the scene didn't expect was that this year's graduation ceremony for the Shenxi Opera directly skipped the speech of the student representatives, and directly entered the subsequent stage of awarding graduation certificates after the speeches of the teacher representatives and alumni representatives.

The awarding of graduation certificates is also a very important part of the graduation ceremony. Because at the graduation ceremony, the school leaders not only hand over the graduation and degree certificates to the graduates, but also a ceremony of turning the tassels and correcting the crown.

Turning the ears and crowning the crown is a kind of etiquette and ceremony for college students to confer degrees upon graduation. The top of the bachelor's cap is square, and the front parallel to the forehead is a corner of the square instead of a whole side, and tassels hang from the side. Before the degree is obtained, the tassel hangs from the middle of the right front side of the brim of the bachelor's hat, and after the degree is obtained, the tassel hangs from the middle of the left front side of the brim of the hat. When conferring a degree upon graduation, the school leader who confers the degree will move the fringe on the degree cap, that is, the tassel from the right side of the cap to the left, symbolizing that the graduates have obtained a degree, and then award the degree certificate and graduation certificate.

This is a very meaningful ceremony, but not every student can experience and experience it.

Although the number of students enrolled in art colleges is much smaller than that of most ordinary colleges and universities, and the total number of undergraduates in Shenxi Opera is less than 2,000, there are still more than 500 graduates this year, and the graduation ceremony also It is impossible to perform this ceremony for all graduates, so in this link, only some students can be selected as representatives to accept the graduation certificate issued by the school leaders.

After the host invited several school leaders who issued graduation certificates to the stage, he recalled the list of student representatives who were selected to go on stage and the school leaders personally issued graduation certificates.

There are a total of 20 undergraduate majors in Shenxi Opera, and there are a total of 40 student representatives who came to the stage to receive their graduation certificates. Basically, two students were selected from each major as representatives.

There are a total of five school leaders who issued graduation certificates on the stage.

It is impossible for forty student representatives to swarm together, but groups of five take turns to take the stage. Except for the student representatives who presented graduation certificates in public at the graduation ceremony, the other students have already received their graduation certificates and degree certificates, so the students themselves know whether they will go on stage and ask the school leaders to turn the tassels and correct the crowns. In order to save time, some students who did not read their names got up early and walked to the steps on the side of the podium to wait.

Although the Acting Department is a large department, there are only two places in this session, and the department leaders gave these two places to Xiao Yao and Nina Aiguri respectively.

In fact, judging from their performance in the past four years, Xiao Yao and Lin Qisan are the two most outstanding students in the acting department. However, considering gender reasons, the academy leaders had to choose one man and one woman, so they gave Nina Aiguli the other spot. Anyway, Lin Qisan had already appeared on stage as an outstanding graduate, and Nina Aiguri was Lin Qisan's girlfriend, so Lin Qisan had no objection to this arrangement. When Xiao Yao and Nina Aiguri stood up, Lin Qisan gave them a thumbs up.

Xiao Yao's name was not in the first group, but he was called quite early, and he was the third in the second group.

When Xiao Yao took the stage, it happened to be the principal of Shenxi who presented him with the certificate. Bowing and bowing his head, he asked the old headmaster to turn his hat tassel from the right to the left. Xiao Yao, who had never experienced this in his previous life, also had a special emotion in his heart.

After turning the ears and crowning the crown, Xiao Yao took the graduation certificate and degree certificate from the principal, and bowed deeply to the old principal in front of him. The old principal patted Xiao Yao on the shoulder kindly, and then praised and encouraged Xiao Yao with a few words.

After the ceremony was completed, Xiao Yao and the other four graduates walked off the podium from the other side. After stepping off the podium, Xiao Yao did not return to his seat like the other four, but handed the certificate in his hand to Nina who was in the same group as him to accept the graduation certificate, turned around and ran to the backstage of the auditorium.

At the backstage of the auditorium, four musicians who had changed their academic uniforms had already finished their preparations and were playing with their instruments. Xiao Yao swiftly took off his bachelor's cap and uniform, and handed it to a junior student from the student union. He stretched out his hands to sort out the hair that had been deformed by the bachelor's cap, and picked up his guitar. , looking at the degree conferring ceremony still going on on the podium from the passageway.

Eight groups of graduates went through the process of turning ears and crowning crowns one by one. After receiving their degree certificates and graduation certificates, five school leaders also stepped off the platform amidst the applause of the students.

The host stepped onto the podium again, and said to everyone in the audience: "Next, let's invite the graduate representative to speak!"

"Huh? Why did you move the speeches of the student representatives here?" Many people at the scene had a question in their hearts, "Shouldn't the speeches of the teacher representatives and alumni representatives be together?"

"Why did you put the graduate representative's speech here?" The host seemed to understand everyone's doubts, and explained, "Because our graduation ceremony also has a cultural performance, and our graduate representatives are also today's performers. He said that he sang better than he spoke, and he put what he wanted to say to everyone in this song, so he didn’t say it, and he will use the following song as his speech.”

When the host was introducing, several students also moved musical instruments such as drums, keyboards, and microphone stands to the podium. The students below saw the formation and immediately understood what the host meant.

"Oh~" Some students couldn't wait to let out a burst of cheers.

After the students on the podium quickly set up various instruments and equipment, the host made a gesture of invitation to the aisle on the side of the podium, and said loudly: "Next, we will invite our graduate representatives, the acting department Xiao Yao, together with Liu Kun from the Recording Department, Xu Can from the Literature Department, Chen Yifang from the Directing Department, and Zhou Wenshen from the Acting Department, will bring this original and new song of his, "Chasing Dreams with a Pure Heart"!"

"Wow~" Hearing that it was indeed Xiao Yao, and that it was an original song again, the students all applauded and screamed.

Amid the applause and cheers and screams of the students, five people in civilian clothes walked onto the stage. Three of them carried guitars and basses, and the other two sat behind the drum kit and stood behind the keyboard.

Xiao Yao walked to the microphone stand in the middle of the front, raised his hands facing everyone in the audience, and slowly pressed down.

The students below thought that Xiao Yao had to say a few words before singing, and immediately fell silent. Xiao Yao turned his head and nodded to the keyboard player, indicating that the keyboard player can start.

After the keyboard player saw Xiao Yao's movements, he pressed the keys of the keyboard with his fingers and started the prelude to the song.

On the background wall behind the podium in the auditorium, a huge screen is pulled. Before the commencement of the graduation ceremony, some fragments introducing the history of the theater were played on this screen. When the music tuned to the piano tone sounded, the screen behind it also lit up again.

During a live performance, the screen behind the screen usually displays the images of the performers, so that the audience far behind can see them more clearly, but what appears on the screen at this time is not the real-time images of Xiao Yao and others performing It is a fragment of a famous movie. It's just that the film clips played at the school at the beginning of the graduation ceremony are different. These clips are silent, and there is only the sound of the band playing instruments on stage.

After a prelude to the piano melody, the drummer struck a few beats. Xiao Yao waved his hand and plucked the strings of the guitar in front of him, and at the same time leaned in front of the microphone and began to sing:

"Where is the world full of flowers? If it exists then I will go there. I want the highest mountain to stand there, don't care if it's a cliff or not!"

"Wow~" is just the first four lines of the first verse, and there are some exclamations below.

As a well-known talent in music creation, it is not surprising that Xiao Yao sang at the graduation ceremony, and it is not surprising that he sang original and new songs, but Xiao Yao's performance at this time still makes people feel a little surprised. Because while Xiao Yao was singing, the screen at the back was playing the movie clips all the time. Just a prelude and four lines of the first verse, several different clips of five classic inspirational movies were played on the screen behind.

At the graduation ceremony of the film and television academy, clips of classic movies are edited together as the background, combined with the performance of the live band, which also reflects the characteristics of the film and television academy. Such a form of expression also made some school leaders sitting in the audience nod frequently.

Another thing that is different is that Xiao Yao has always sung new songs like this before. This time with the background screen, Xiao Yao also grandly placed the lyrics of the song in front of those movie clips. And different from the general subtitles located at the bottom of the screen, Xiao Yao also placed these lyrics directly above the screen, so that everyone in the audience can see them clearly.

"Is this also releasing the song MV for us?" Some people murmured in their hearts.

"Live hard and love hard, even if you don't want anyone's satisfaction, just be worthy of yourself. I never choose to give up on my ideals, even in the gray days!"

The first four lines of the first verse of the verse were sung by Xiao Yao alone, and in the last four lines, the guitarist and bassist next to him also approached the microphone and sang in harmony, adding some momentum to the whole song. Although the harmony of the two may sound a little out of tune, in this situation, it's actually not that unpleasant.

"Maybe I don't have talent, but I have the innocence of dreams, and I will use my whole life to prove it. Maybe my hands are clumsy, but I am willing to keep exploring and devote all my youth without regret~"

"Woo~"

When Xiao Yao was singing the second verse, the other musicians were still in harmony, but this time their harmony was not singing along with Xiao Yao, but humming instead, and this time it was not a guitar The hand and the bass player are the two harmony voices, but the four musicians hum the harmony together, which seems to be accumulating some kind of power.

"Run forward~"

At the beginning of the chorus, Xiao Yao yelled hoarsely at the first three words, and broke his voice at the third word.

"I'll go!" The students at the scene felt their scalps go numb.

This sentence is where Zhao Rui proposed Xiao Yao's broken voice during the previous rehearsal. Many of the Shenxi students know music, and many students have also heard that Xiao Yao sings broken sounds. But as Xiao Yao said, the broken sound of this song in this place is not against harmony at all. Coupled with the movie clips on the screen, the students felt a rush of excitement.

"Facing cold eyes and ridicule! How can we feel the vastness of life without going through hardships. Destiny can't make us kneel down and beg for mercy, even if our arms are covered with blood~"

For the chorus part, Xiao Yao completely let go of his voice, and the students below were also excited when they heard it. It should be said that Xiao Yao had a lot of rock songs before, but it was the first time he sang like this.

"Keep running~"

The second section of the chorus still started with a hoarse sound, and the students below felt their scalps tingling again.

"With the pride of a child! How can you see the brilliance of life if you don't persevere to the end. It's better to burn to your heart's content than to linger on, and one day it will germinate again!"

"Ah~" Hearing this, the students who felt their blood boiled couldn't help waving their arms and cheering and screaming.

After the chorus, the song is followed by an interlude. In the original version of the band in the previous life, there was a violin in the accompaniment of this song, and the interlude was dominated by the sound of the violin, but in this live performance, Xiao Yao did not ask Sun Tingting or other members of the school. The violin classmate helped, but made an arrangement and soundtrack of all rock instruments, showing a very pure rock band performance. This interlude was also changed to an ensemble of drums, keyboards and guitars.

"The charming and splendid future is always calling to me~"

"I want to summon~"

"Even if you are only accompanied by pain, you must go forward bravely. I want to sail in the bluest sea there~"

"Sail the sea~"

"I don't care if I can return it or not."

After the interlude, the song entered a new verse. When Xiao Yao was singing this section, the other musicians did not harmonize for Xiao Yao, but repeated the song at the end of the two sentences in unison.

"Depressed after failure, that's a coward's performance. As long as you have a breath, please clenched your fists. Before the sky breaks, we must be more brave and wait for the most dazzling moment of sunrise!"

"Woo~"

In the next paragraph, the other musicians stopped singing along, but changed back to humming, and everyone gathered strength again.

An inspirational song, accompanied by the pictures of those classic inspirational movies. The following graduates who are in their youth and full of ambition have long been excited by Xiao Yao's performance, and they can't wait to stand up and roar together with Xiao Yao. It's just that this is not a concert after all, and they are still wearing a bachelor's uniform, so many people inevitably still have some scruples in their hearts.

"Run forward~"

Coming to the chorus part again, Xiao Yao's hoarse voice came out, and some students finally couldn't bear it anymore, and stood up from their seats, waving their arms excitedly, and shouted this sentence together with Xiao Yao.

"Facing cold eyes and ridicule! How can we feel the vastness of life without going through hardships. Destiny can't make us kneel down and beg for mercy, even if our arms are covered with blood~"

The same chorus as before, with lyrics on the screen. When Xiao Yao sang, those students who yelled out the first three words simply sang along. Hearing that someone took the lead, more students were eager to try.

Xiao Yao keenly heard the singing from the student group below, and knew that everyone's emotions had risen. After singing this passage, Xiao Yao left his hands from the guitar in front of him, turned around and pointed to the big screen behind him.

"Keep running~"

When the second section of the chorus began, Xiao Yao stopped singing hoarsely, but waved his arms rhythmically to the students in the audience. As early as when Xiao Yao turned around and pointed at the big screen, the students below had already understood Xiao Yao's meaning, and yelled out the opening sentence very cooperatively.

"With the pride of a child! How can you see the brilliance of life if you don't stick to it!"

Next, the sound of the drum kit, guitar, and bass stopped suddenly at the same time, leaving only the sound of the keyboard at a low volume. The sound of the live music became clear and the atmosphere became a little quieter. Xiao Yao still didn't speak, but the other four musicians on the stage were still singing into the microphone. Under the command of Xiao Yao, the students in the audience sang the next two lines together with the four musicians on the stage.

"It's better to burn to your heart's content than to linger~"

The chorus of the students in the audience continued, but when they sang "Last Breath", the sound of drums and other instruments rang again, and the atmosphere of the scene became lively again. And when it came to "burning with passion", Xiao Yao's roar sounded again.

"For the beauty in my heart~"

In the next sentence, Xiao Yao exerted all his strength again. Because the lyrics in this place are different from the previous chorus, some students also stopped singing in chorus. Xiao Yao's voice came out through the microphone, instantly overpowering the voices of everyone in the audience.

"Uncompromising until you grow old~"

When he sang the last line, Xiao Yao's voice slowed down a little again.

After this sentence is over, there is another performance of the song to finish. But in this section, Xiao Yao, who was carrying the guitar, did not participate, but looked at the students below with a firm expression, and raised his fist with his right hand.

Although the music at the end of the song is more soothing and soft, but seeing Xiao Yao's actions, most of the students at the scene who knew that the song was about to end raised their arms and stood up from their seats, giving out a deafening cheer and scream.

All the songs ended, and the picture on the screen behind him also faded into darkness. Xiao Yao bowed deeply to the audience.

"Ah~" At this time, almost all the students on the scene stood up, applauding and screaming. Even in the non-student seating area, several teachers and alumni stood up from their seats to applaud Xiao Yao and others on the stage.

After several students came up to help Xiao Yao and others remove all the musical instruments and equipment, the graduation ceremony entered the last item, and the principal of Shenxi Opera took the stage to address all the graduates.

"I don't think I need to say anything to you anymore." The old principal looked at the graduates in the audience and said, "Borrowing what Xiao Yao said in the song just now, I hope you will keep a pure heart and chase after the graduates." Follow your own dreams and run bravely all the way forward!"

After the principal's voice fell, the students who had just calmed down gave another round of warm applause.
