Chapter 13 College Life
After coming out of the video store, the two bought ten butter sesame cakes and two bags of soy milk. Baoqiang insisted on paying the bill, and Xu Kun didn't stop him.
When he got home, Xu Kun asked Baoqiang to put the soy milk in the bowl, while he played with the DVD player. There was nothing urgent to do today, so he ate and watched, and it was too late to go out after watching.
Bao Qiang, who dreams of martial arts, wants to watch "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", while Xu Kun is more interested in "In the Mood for Love" - even though he was disgusted by the people in Hong Kong just now, he has to admit that the cover of "In the Mood for Love" is right His appetite.
In the end, the two unanimously decided to watch the most famous "Farewell My Concubine" first.
Bao Qiang didn't have this condition before, but Xu Kun had a special liking for pornographic, violent, and ghost characters, so they had only heard of this famous work by Director Chen, but didn't know what the specific content was.
After seeing it, both of them regretted it.
It's definitely a good movie, but it's really not suitable for two grown men to watch together.
Xu Kun ejected the disc and put it into the cover. He waved his hand vigorously, as if to drive away the embarrassment that filled the room: "Let's go and have a look at the training class."
Baoqiang still didn't want Xu Kun to spend too much money, so he hesitated and said: "Brother Kun, if it weren't for you, you should go alone..."
"I don't want you to feel it, I want me to feel it!"
Xu Kun picked him up and walked out the door without saying a word.
Originally, according to the address given by Chen Xuebin, it was most convenient to take the bus at the intersection of Xueyuan Road, but I had to take a detour.
Thinking of what happened yesterday, Xu Kun joked: "Why, are you afraid of meeting the girl of your dreams?"
Baoqiang groaned for a long time before telling the real reason.
But it turned out that one time he finished his group performance early and wanted to go back on his legs to save a dollar on taking the bus.
Unexpectedly, there was an event on Xueyuan Road on Sunday, and the sidewalks on both sides were filled with college students. Although he tried his best to avoid those men and women, his dirty clothes and the smell of sweat on his body still attracted countless looks and disgust.
Those sounds of "smells" and "disgusting" were like needle pricks, and thinking about it now still makes Baoqiang feel panicked.
After that, he always tried to walk around College Road, especially on Sundays.
After hearing this, Xu Kun put his arms around Bao Qiang's shoulders and said with a fake smile: "Hey, how big of a deal do I think this is? I'll take you out tonight to vent your anger. Let me tell you, college life is not a big deal." alright!"
Bao Qiang's face turned red and he shook his head like a rattle. After a long while, he suddenly choked out: "When I become a big star in the future, I will marry a very beautiful college student!"
Tsk~
If you don’t say that this kid is honest, he has been wronged and humiliated, and his greatest ambition is just to marry a college student as his wife and be on an equal footing with others.
Xu Kun is different. He prefers men on top and women on bottom.
The training class introduced by Chen Xuebin was located near the Central Academy of Drama. After getting off the car, Xu Kun took Baoqiang to the entrance of the Central Theater for a walk. As a result, he didn't see many handsome guys and beauties, not to mention the legendary adult. Row of luxury cars.
The main reason is that the area is too narrow and cannot accommodate so many cars.
The training class was not big. It was housed in a three-story old building, and the total area was only five or six hundred square meters.
But the fees are really not cheap.
According to the front desk, the training classes are divided into two modes: large class and individual tutoring. The large class is cheaper, but it requires registration in advance, and it is based on a half-year basis, and classes are fixed on Saturdays and Sundays.
Firstly, Xu Kun and Baoqiang were not in a rush when they arrived, and secondly, the students in the big class were all from their teens to sixteen or seventeen years old, and the baby-faced Baoqiang was considered a veteran in the class, let alone Xu Kun.
Moreover, the training class obviously excludes adults from participating in large classes. This is not difficult to understand. According to the charging standards, all the people here are 'young ladies and young masters'. If someone with bad intentions is let in, the training class can bear it. Can't afford the consequences.
Therefore, the only option Xu Kun and Bao Qiang had was to be tutored alone. The basics of acting are RMB 280 per class, the basics of dance are RMB 320 per class, and the basics of broadcasting are cheaper, at RMB 220 per class, and you can get a 25% discount if you join a group with two people.
At this point, it is still the price of an ordinary teacher. If you appoint a teacher from China Theater to teach, it will cost a lot more.
In the end, under Bao Qiang's strong opposition, Xu Kun ordered ten sessions of performance and ten sessions of broadcasting, which cost a total of 7,500 oceans. After bargaining, the training class gave two more sessions of lines and two sessions of broadcasting.
Bao Qiang was so distressed that he almost bit his back molar.
In order to be worth the price, he racked his brains in the subsequent acting class to squeeze out experience and knowledge from the teacher.
That intensity of study shocked the teacher. He had never taught group acting before, but sincerity like Bao Qiang was rare. Of course, Bao Qiang also had the best appearance among the students he had ever taught. The worse one.
Compared with Baoqiang, Xu Kun is new to the industry after all, and he understands many things at a loss, even Yunshan Mist Cover. Fortunately, Baoqiang has tried his best to remember everything. After listening to the class, if you don't understand anything, just ask him directly. .
But when it came to the line class, the situation for the two of them was reversed.
Xu Kun's congenital conditions are not bad. The most important thing is that he can be relaxed and his language and emotions are fuller than ordinary people. As long as he can get rid of some acquired problems, the broadcasting teacher even thinks that he has the potential to be a host.
Baoqiang is not enough. His voice is a bit shrill. This is a problem brought about in the womb. It can only be improved through some techniques, but it is basically impossible to completely eliminate this problem.
However, the broadcasting teacher finally comforted Bao Qiang, saying that film and television dramas are not host programs, and can be polished sentence by sentence or paragraph by paragraph, so that the shortcomings of the voice can be covered up.
Of course, another way is to give up the lines completely and let others dub yourself.
But Baoqiang is obviously unwilling to take this shortcut.
Seeing him refining his lines almost word for word, Xu Kun couldn't help but secretly sigh, this kid really has a crazy energy, no wonder he can become a big star even though he is not favored by others in all aspects.
Because they had two classes in a row, Xu Kun and Bao Qiang had lunch at Nanluogu Lane at noon, so they didn't bother Boss Lin when they got home.
Returning to the rental house, he and Bao Qiang took the notes and tutoring materials they had brought back and read them over and over for an hour. Xu Kun couldn't hold it in any longer and strongly suggested watching a movie to change his mind.
So in the afternoon they watched "In the Mood for Love" and "Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger".
For "In the Mood for Love", directed by the King of Sunglasses and starring Zhang Manyu and Liang Chaowei, both of them gave unanimous praise.
And "Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger"...
"I think this film is a bit polished and not as good as "New Dragon Inn"."
Xu Kun immediately published the "fallacy" of BIG's courage.
Bao Qiang hesitated and said, "But this film won an Oscar. Could it be that we didn't understand it?"
So the two of them quickly scanned it again.
How should I put it? This drama is more like a feature film than a martial arts film. In terms of the exquisiteness of the plot, it is indeed better than most martial arts films. But the problem is that Xu Kun and Bao Qiang have just watched "Farewell My Concubine" and "Two Flowers". years".
Moreover, they are both loyal fans of action movies and have a special liking for fast-paced fight scenes...
In the end, Xu Kun turned off the TV, stretched and said, "Why are you struggling with this? We are here to learn acting skills, and we are not going to be directors or screenwriters - let's go, I will take you to meet Brother Lin."
After saying that, he took out a box from the things he brought back and led Baoqiang around to the small restaurant in front.
