To be honest, the conditions provided by the school are quite good. There is a lot of room for development for students both horizontally and vertically.
Even if you don't have any skills, there are group performance opportunities guaranteed by the department, which can give you a practical chance to perform.
Rhodes was very satisfied with the news, and his study career soon officially began under such circumstances.
A year has passed by in a hurry, and everyone is doing what they think is right.
The Luo family, who studied at the Imperial Academy of Fine Arts, worked very hard to learn how to perform.
As time approaches the end of the term, Rhodes and others no longer have the bright aura they had before.
Become like ordinary students, ordinary and confident.
You Jun, who was staying in a dormitory, felt the most strongly about this.
He almost witnessed Rhodes becoming like this step by step.
At the same time, he also lamented that he studied hard to cultivate a unique temperament as much as possible, so that he could stand out in certain roles and become an actor with the same characteristics as his parents.
But Rhodes directly washed away his own temperament, making himself softer and more people-friendly.
The joys and sorrows of people are not the same.
Looking at Rhodes who was reading silently in the dormitory, he asked: "Shao Yuan, do you want to organize your own game at the end of the semester?"
For people like Rhodes, he could see his background at first glance. He felt that Rhodes had a high chance of organizing the game himself, and he also wanted to see if there was any chance he could take advantage of it.
Rhodes didn't even raise his head: "No group, I'm going to participate in the group show organized by the department."
"That's right." You Jun nodded.
Obviously, it is best to organize a play yourself, and to participate in other people's plays is second best. Only actors who are not wanted will participate in the department's group plays.
This statement has long been spread in the department, and Rhodes cannot possibly not know about it.
But why did Rhodes make this choice?
Although he didn't quite understand it, he silently expressed respect. He didn't think he was smarter than Rhodes.
It's a pity that I can't get involved in Rhode's drama. Fortunately, I still have some connections in my family. I'll ask my parents to help me find a match tomorrow.
Now that he had a clear arrangement, he did not continue to say anything, but started playing the most popular shooting game in the empire.
But as soon as the game started and after a few games, he became angry and angry.
He was tapping furiously on the keyboard as if he were playing the piano.
"I gave you all my economy, so that you have all your armor. I go to point A with a small pistol alone. When faced with the encirclement and suppression of four big men, I can kill three of them.
But you have such good equipment, but you can't defend a B in a one-on-one duel.
You are like a docile goat, letting people come in and out of point B, and letting people get in and get off, are you still a human being? "
He frantically typed on his teammates on the keyboard, making them incoherent and trembling.
In the end, the game was lost.
You Jun slapped the keyboard angrily.
Damn, this crappy game has no meaning at all.
But then he fired again.
Rhodes always sat aside, reading quietly without being affected by anything.
Rhodes' idea is actually very simple. He is here to learn, so there is no need to cut his head and get into some circles.
You just need to study hard and successfully become a graduate student and then a doctorate.
There is no need for him to go to the entertainment industry, which is full of temptations. He is not short of money and fame. The academic environment in the school is the most suitable for him.
His ideas are very reasonable, but others may not necessarily find them reasonable.
"Ding ding ding." The phone rang.
Rhodes glanced and found that the caller was his mentor, Wu Zimo.
He picked up the phone.
"Hello, instructor."
A strong male voice came from over there.
"Li Shaoyuan, I saw your name on the group play registration list. Why do you want to participate in the department's group play?"
Rhodes practiced a line smoothly:
“Because I feel that the group drama of our department bears in mind the expectations of the empire, the requirements of the school, and the needs of the classmates, and it heralds the implementation of the study tasks for the year.
We should strengthen our ideals and beliefs, be brave in innovation, maintain, develop and implement the interests of our classmates.
Contribute to the construction of the "Four Centers", contribute your own wisdom and strength to the empire's performing arts, and compose the song of youth in the new era while working hard. "
"Ah?" Wu Zimo was stunned for a moment.
Rhodes' answer immediately gave him a chance.
"You are so smooth-talking, do you want to take the postgraduate entrance examination?"
Rhodes affirmed: "Yes, otherwise?"
Hearing Rhodes' affirmative reply, Wu Zimo was immediately silenced. This was the first time that he saw a young student who was so interested in group drama.
"Then...well, come to my office."
Going out for a while delayed Rhode's reading time, but he still put down the book in his hand and went to Wu Zimo's office.
"Knock knock knock."
"Please come in."
After discovering that the person coming was Rhodes, Wu Zimo immediately asked Rhodes to sit down and made him a cup of tea.
After sitting down again, Wu Zimo asked:
"Li Shaoyuan, do you really want to take the postgraduate entrance examination?"
The entertainment industry is a vanity fair. He has seen too many people who are willing to pay anything for fame and fortune.
From freshman to senior year, students are chasing fame and fortune all the time. Only those who have no ability by senior year will focus on the postgraduate entrance examination.
For a person like Rhodes who wanted to take the postgraduate entrance examination as a freshman and seemed to be dedicated to studying acting, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
Rhodes replied affirmatively: "Yes, I want to continue to further my studies in acting. Not only will I take the postgraduate entrance examination, but I will also study for a Ph.D."
"Can I believe your words?" Wu Zimo asked.
Rhodes smiled and said, "It's definitely possible."
Wu Zimo stared at Rhodes with burning eyes.
He has also seen many people who wanted to use the gimmick of taking the postgraduate entrance examination to get a PhD from him.
But he looked at it for a long time, and what he saw in Rhode's eyes was sincerity and determination.
After only one year of study, if Rhodes has such good acting skills, he will definitely succeed without giving him any chance.
True love has never been retained in the entertainment industry since ancient times, and time will test everything.
Thinking of this, Wu Zimo became much calmer.
"If your grades are always among the best and you perform well in group performances every year, you will still have a great chance of retaining your postgraduate qualifications."
"Thank you, mentor, for your cultivation." Rhodes responded.
Wu Zimo also smiled and said: "These are what I, as a mentor, should do."
Although he actually didn't do anything, he still said it beautifully.
The two chatted for a while, and then Rhodes said goodbye and left.
