Chapter 126 Art Examination
Chapter 126 Art Examination
I just gave a few minutes of interview and quietly placed a lot of advertisements.
They mentioned "A Quiet Place" which was about to be completed many times, and also talked about the second album that was being prepared.
When a reporter asked:
"Recently, there are rumors that your song 'Mai Ba' has made many mobile phone ringtones popular, and the dividend amount is as high as tens of millions. Is this true? What do you want to say about this?"
Fan Wumian smiled and said:
"I am very grateful for the support of my fans, and I am also very grateful to my motherland for providing me with a huge stage. In fact, I am considering incorporating more Chinese elements into my songs."
"As for the rumors about the bonus for mobile phone ringtones, to be honest, I'm not too sure about it for now. I just signed the contract with the telecommunications company not long ago, and the bonus distribution day hasn't come yet. Since I have a large number of popular ringtones, I should be able to get this amount."
"It would be great if the telecom operator's website could display the sales of ringback tone in real time."
"This will allow me to intuitively see which songs have shortcomings. When I finish my recent work, I will make some of the songs in "Mai Ba" into complete songs."
Because of the popularity of ringtones and "Mai Ba", many people are looking for the complete song online.
This is the first time that Fan Wumian has publicly responded, confirming that he will record the complete song.
And we may need to hurry up. Some online singers have already started trying to complete some mobile phone ringtones.
The copyright has already been registered, so he is not worried about being used for commercial purposes. However, it does have a slight impact on his plan of "keeping people on edge about the sale of the second album."
As for the tens of millions of RMB in dividends from mobile phone ringtones.
Some celebrities need to keep a low profile, make their fortune quietly, and try to avoid arousing anti-rich sentiment in the outside world.
Fan Wumian is a little different.
He has no agent, record company, film and television company, etc. to help him back him up. When he goes out, he has to give himself face. The stronger his ability is, the easier it is for him to gain people's attention.
In the entertainment industry, status refers to the position of celebrities.
Domestic entertainment is still in its "pioneering stage" and the scale of capital entering the market is limited.
Compared to being a celebrity, Fan Wumian hopes that he can become a member of "capital", so he thought of opening a corporate office in Yanjing.
Locating the company in this city will not only make it easier to get in touch with first-hand investment opportunities, but it will also be more convenient to get approval from departments, and there will be opportunities to strengthen cooperation with the media, TV stations, brands and peers.
After receiving the hint from Fan Wumian.
Agent Jiang Shixi used the excuse of "preparing seriously for the exam" to politely send the reporters away.
Suddenly, a young man in his twenties rushed up to Fan Wumian, handed him his business card and said:
"Hello! I'm from the admissions office of Huaxi Academy. I would like to ask you to consider applying to our school. We can arrange a full scholarship, a separate dormitory, and admission without examination for you. It's much more sincere than the Beijing Film Academy!"
soon.
Another woman in her 30s pushed him away and said to Fan Wumian:
"I'm from the admissions office of Yanbei University. As long as your academic scores are high enough, why don't you come to our art department? We are currently planning to set up an art college."
next to.
A teacher from Beijing Film Academy, seeing that something was wrong, immediately grabbed Fan Wumian's arm and walked into the school, saying:
"Don't believe what they say, there are so many scammers these days!"
"Come on, come on. You came from the south. It's too cold today. I'll take you in to have some tea so you can experience the environment of our Beijing Film Academy in advance."
"Yan Da Art Department is more inclined towards academic research and education. Compared with Huaxi Opera, we are the only film school in China, the largest in Asia, and the world-renowned. I am very interested in the science fiction movie you directed and starred in. We can also provide you with separate dormitories and scholarships."
Fan Wumian burst out laughing.
He knew this teacher Tao Li. He had taught them several classes in drama and film art design in his previous life. The difference was that his hair was still very thick now.
Fan Wumian thought that it would be easier to get along in his "alma mater" without having to interfere with other important matters because of studying, so he never thought of changing his mind at the last minute and applying to other schools.
But since it was so popular, he took the opportunity to negotiate the terms and asked:
"My crew hasn't finished their work yet. The assistant director also graduated from your school. There is a half-month interval between the first, second and third interviews. Recently, I have to be busy editing and sending it to the Berlin Film Festival. If the first interview is OK, can I take the second and third interviews in advance?"
". I'll talk to the vice-president later. I should be able to arrange it for you individually. Which assistant director are you looking for?"
"Lü Hao, you may not know him."
"Huh? That's my classmate. He won many awards when he was in school. I haven't heard about him for a long time. He has become an assistant director."
Led by Tao Li, a teacher from Beijing Film Academy, I first found the vice president in charge of admissions to explain the situation.
Because Fan Wumian was rather special and already a very popular star, there was a possibility that he might be snatched away by other schools, so the other party agreed to make special arrangements.
Anyway, the examination process is similar every year.
Ask a few teachers to take some time out to go through the motions and record the test footage for the second and third tests. There is no need to be so rigid.
As long as Fan Wumian comes to Beijing Film Academy to study, it is equivalent to directly gaining a "first-line celebrity alumni", which is a huge profit.
8 o'clock in the morning.
The vice-principal was still chatting with Fan Wumian, asking about his academic performance, the movie "A Quiet Place" and other matters.
Other candidates have entered the venue and started preparing for the preliminary examination.
in the crowd.
Yang Mi looked for Fan Wumian again until the exam had started for a while and one group was about to finish.
The first test starts with recitation, and several candidates in the same group stand in a row.
Others recited poems and prose, and when it was Fan Wumian's turn, he read: "A speck of dust can fill the sea, a blade of grass can cut off the sun, moon and stars, and the world can be turned upside down in the blink of an eye."
After hearing this, a female teacher smiled and asked him:
"It sounds very interesting. It seems that it is hard to find a local who speaks better Mandarin than you in the whole city of Hong Kong. What is this article you are reading?"
"The plot of my own novel, The Desolate Emperor."
"."
"."
The candidates in the same group looked at each other in bewilderment. Even the teacher didn't know what to say and could only praise them for being excellent.
There were seven other people in the same group as Fan Wumian.
Yang Mi is one of them.
After the recitation session, they received the topic “Encounter by Chance” and were given only 5 minutes to prepare for the “8-person group skit” test.
Compared with the future top young actresses, Yang Mi has no aura at present and is relatively eye-catching among many candidates.
The preparation time is too short, which tests everyone's on-the-spot response and line delivery abilities.
With the presence of the big star Fan Wumian, he naturally became the backbone of the other candidates.
There happened to be 4 boys and 4 girls in the group, so he quickly planned a simple skit in which fellow students had a dinner together after high school graduation and confessed their love to each other.
It would be strange how good it could be with just a few minutes of preparation time.
Boys and girls were divided into groups one on one. Fan Wumian didn't want to steal the limelight from others, so he tried to give every candidate a chance to show themselves. Yang Mi really wanted to act with him, but was too embarrassed to speak up.
Another girl in the same group, who had a face as pure as her deskmate and a body as hot as a devil, was not so cautious. She ran to Fan Wumian first to introduce herself, blinking her big eyes and said coquettishly:
"Hello~ My name is Shi Xian, I'm your fan, single, 18 years old, from Lin'an, can I partner with you?"
Fan Wumian's eyes swept from bottom to top.
I feel that if Shi Xian becomes an internet celebrity, he would have the chance to gain millions of fans just by wearing belly-baring clothes and twisting his waist.
Other candidates were dressed more casually.
This girl shows off her good figure perfectly in a tight gray sweater with a one-shoulder neckline. Her figure is impeccable.
Fan Wumian nodded in agreement and hurried to make preparations.
On stage again.
Yang Mi was the first to speak:
"We're about to graduate! I don't know when I'll see the guy I like again. Tonight's class reunion may be my last chance!"
Another female candidate then spoke out the lines of her own skit:
"Yes! I want to seize the tail of youth and give the one I like a piece of chocolate I made myself."
Even though Fan Wumian didn't say a word, he was the focus of the teachers' attention standing on the stage.
Relying on a short story about her and Shi Xian's mutual love, confession of love and successful hand-holding, she successfully won over several invigilators present.
This girl named Shi Xian had mediocre academic performance. She was worried that she would not be able to get into university, so she decided to take the art exam on the spur of the moment.
Knowing that partnering with Fan Wumian would make it easier for her to get the attention of the invigilators, she was the first to step forward and apply to join a team.
have to say.
The effect is still very good.
There were two female invigilators who originally did not like Shi Xian, a candidate who seemed to like to show off. They thought that although she was pretty, she was a little too seductive.
However, seeing her standing next to Fan Wumian, they seemed to be a perfect match, so he finally gave Shi Xian a good score, enough for her to enter the re-examination.
After the initial test, Yang Mi breathed a sigh of relief.
I wanted to leave immediately, but Fan Wumian took the initiative to talk to me and asked, "Hello, judging from your accent, are you from Yanjing?"
It's obvious that you are just making conversation.
Yang Mi was not nervous during the exam, but now she was so nervous that she stuttered a little. She answered:
"Yes, I grew up in Yanjing, and I'm also your fan! I asked a friend to buy your album in Hong Kong, and I've been following your forum for a long time."
Unable to resist curling up the corners of his mouth, Fan Wumian said:
"Thank you for your support. I want to take my assistants out for lunch. There are many restaurants that locals know about."
next to.
Shi Xian, who was taking his time to pack his clothes, said:
"I'm not used to the mixed noodles, but the copper pot hot pot meat is very good. Thank you for helping me just now. We will have a chance to become classmates in the future! You can leave your contact information and make friends in advance!"
Yang Mi's smile was somewhat forced.
How could it not be seen that Shi Xian took the initiative because he actually wanted Fan Wumian's number?
She spoke:
"I like to eat shabu-shabu, too. You all performed very well just now. If I fail the exam this time, I may have to come back for another year."
