Chapter 62 Beijing Dance Academy and Peking University
Liu Shishi recalled: "On the first day, I met Sun Li, who was acting in The Book and the Sword. On the second day, I encountered several crews filming, but the management was very strict and I didn't see any stars."
"Shishi, you are going to film a movie soon. I heard that Lu Yi from the next dormitory has also signed a contract with an agency and officially entered the industry. You both have ways to get out of the dance circle." Chen Xin's words revealed envy.
"The agency that Lu Yi signed with is called Tengda Culture, which is the same company as Senior Brother Qiao Zhengyu from our dance academy. I wonder if she got in touch with Senior Brother Qiao."
Lin Wenwen also shared a piece of news she heard by chance, that the two girls with the best looks at Beijing Dance Academy had switched careers to become actors. It was obviously impossible for her to say that she had not had such an idea.
Liu Shishi glanced at Song Ci with a half-smile, kicked him lightly under the table, and responded inexplicably: "I didn't expect that Lu Yi was also planning to enter the entertainment industry and signed a contract with a big company like Tengda Culture."
Song Ci actually recruited Lu Yi, who was as famous as her in school, into the company, and didn't tell her yet, which made Liu Shishi feel a little emotional.
Song Ci felt very wronged. His only impression of Lu Yi was that the Northwest Hammer King wanted to hammer her, and he never asked about the artist management work of Tengda Culture.
He only knew from work emails that the company had recently signed several artists, both male and female. But he really didn't know who they were, so he had to ask Wang Jing someday to see if there were any big stars from his previous life.
"If someone is looking after you, it should be easier to get into the industry. It is said that the entertainment industry is very complicated, and there are many cases of scrambling for resources and suppressing newcomers. It is normal for Lu Yi and Senior Brother Qiao to stick together for warmth."
Chen Xin thinks that people from Beijing Dance Academy should take care of and support each other. Otherwise, why would they compete for resources with the three major schools, Beijing Film Academy, Central Academy of Drama, and Shanghai Theatre Academy?
Song Ci agrees with Chen Xin's point of view. The three major academies of Beijing Film Academy, Central Academy of Drama and Shanghai Theatre Academy have outstanding reputation and strength in the field of performing arts and have trained many outstanding film and television talents.
Those who graduated from these three major universities have complex connections in the entertainment industry. They both compete and cooperate, and occupy the mainstream channel resources of the entire entertainment industry.
Not to mention grassroots, even if you are not from one of the three major universities, it is difficult to gain a foothold without the support of a film and television company. It is indeed easier to get by with the help of famous seniors in the circle.
After a while, the waiter came back and started serving the dishes. Everyone was not polite and just chatted while eating.
"Don't just talk about us, Lin Hao. Tell us about Peking University, the top university in the country. Introduce yourself to it."
Lin Wenwen and Lin Hao chatted on QQ several times during the National Day holiday. She learned indirectly that his family should be well off, but she didn't know much else.
Seeing that the four girls were staring at him curiously, Lin Hao began to introduce: "Peking University is divided into many colleges. The four of us are studying at Guanghua School of Management, which is one of the best colleges in Peking University. Basically, only the top ten students in the province can be admitted to Guanghua School every year.
We majored in finance, and after graduation we will basically work in finance-related jobs. More than half of our senior alumni who have graduated have entered banks or securities companies, and their incomes are considerable. "
Liu Shishi was also listening attentively. Although she knew that Song Ci had good grades and was the top scholar in Peking, she didn't know much about the specific college and major of Song Ci.
Liu Shishi put on plastic gloves and put the peeled shrimp into Song Ci's bowl while praising Lin Hao: "Fatty Lin, I didn't expect you to have such good grades."
Lin Hao held his head high and said proudly, "I am the top scholar in Jinling."
Yang Yi's eyes widened, and she looked back and forth between Lu and Tang. "Shishi, I remember you said that Song Ci was the top scholar in Beiping, and Lin Hao was the top scholar in Jinling. You two are not the top scholars as well, are you?"
Tang Xiaochuan said shyly: "My college entrance examination score was second in Sichuan Province and first in Lizhou City."
When talking about the college entrance examination results, his eyes were extremely bright. The scene of the villagers beating drums and gongs and the leaders of the Education Bureau coming to announce the good news that day still often appears in his dreams. That was the reward for his countless days and nights of hard study, and the turning point that changed his destiny.
Lu Yugang's face turned red, and he said in a muffled voice: "I am not the top scorer. My college entrance examination score was second in Bingcheng and fifth in Heilongjiang Province. I am ashamed of my brothers."
"That's impressive too." Yang Yi looked at Lu Yuguang with new eyes. She didn't expect that this burly man from Northeast China could study so seriously and carefully.
"Wenwen, eat some vegetables. Try this shrimp. I'll peel it for you." Lin Hao was very attentive to Lin Wenwen. He was completely fascinated by Lin Wenwen's black queen style today.
Seeing Lin Hao trying to please Lin Wenwen, Chen Xin joked, "Lin Hao, forget about Shishi peeling shrimp for Song Ci. What's your relationship with Wenwen? Why are you only peeling shrimp for her?"
"Hehe." Lin Hao did not answer, but just blushed and focused on peeling shrimps.
"Thank you, I can do it myself." Lin Wenwen rejected Lin Hao's kindness and glanced at Liu Shishi. She found that she and Song Ci were whispering to each other, showing their affection and love.
"Bad woman!" Lin Wenwen felt bitter. Her boyfriend was a handsome top scholar, and was spotted by a director and successfully entered the entertainment industry. Why did you, Liu Shishi, get all the good things?
Originally, Lin Wenwen was going to go straight to the point and expose Liu Shishi's affair with a rich man at the dinner table, but although this would make her feel better, it would embarrass Song Ci and also cause a complete fallout with Lin Hao, so she wouldn't gain anything from it.
Just after listening to Lin Hao's introduction to Guanghua College, she completely understood that several boys at the dinner table were all super potential stocks. Lin Hao's family was well-off and he was a loyal person. Putting Song Ci aside, he might not be a bad match for her. Fighting for a moment's favor was meaningless to her, so she had been hesitating whether to act according to the original plan.
But it was rare to catch Liu Shishi's handle, and she couldn't expose it in front of everyone, so she was very unwilling. The flames of jealousy burned her heart. Others were laughing and chatting, but she was the only one who ate her meal in a dull mood.
Outside the restaurant, everyone was about to say goodbye. The meal lasted nearly two hours. Except for Lin Wenwen who was preoccupied with something, everyone else had a great conversation. Lu Yuguang, Tang Xiaochuan, Yang Yi and Chen Xin even added each other's contact information.
Liu Shishi smoothed her hair that was blown by the evening breeze, smiled and said to the boys: "Song Ci, you don't have to send me off. The school is next door, just a few steps away. But how are you going to get home?"
"The four of us can just take a taxi back." Song Ci replied.
"Song Ci, didn't you drive?" Lin Wenwen suddenly interrupted, her voice clear and floating in the autumn wind.
"Driving? I don't have a car!" Song Ci said subconsciously.
"Ah, on the first day of the National Day holiday, I saw Shishi get into an Audi sedan, and I thought that was your car." Lin Wenwen said, and then seemed to realize it belatedly and kept silent, giving people the feeling that she was pretending.
