Entertaining Children

  Chapter 442 Military training begins

  After the opening ceremony in the afternoon of the next day, Xiao Yao’s college life officially began.

  In China, the first thing freshmen do after semester is the four-week, nearly one-month military training for freshmen.

The tradition of   Shen Opera is that every year new students are taken to the army barracks for military training, where they can eat and live in the army, which can almost be regarded as being isolated from the world. In the school where Xiao Yao went to university in the previous life, the military training of new students was conducted on the school playground by instructors from the army. So for Xiao Yao, going to military training in the army is also a very rare and novel experience. Compared with other students' worries about the coming life in the army, Xiao Yao is a little bit expectant and excited.

   "Assemble! Assemble! For the first class, everyone comes to the team and is ready to set off!" On the largest playground in the school, a sturdy boy who was about 1.78 meters tall shouted with a loud voice.

  The boy's name is Wang Zhi. He is the monitor of Xiao Yao's performance class and the oldest student in the class.

  After the opening ceremony, each class went down to a certain classroom under the leadership of their head teacher to hold the first class meeting after enrollment.

  There are only two contents of the class meeting. One is for the students in the class to introduce themselves so that everyone can get to know each other, and the other is to select the class leader. There are only 16 students in a class in the Shen Opera Acting Department, so the composition of the class is extremely simple, and only one monitor is needed. Other positions such as deputy squad leader, league secretary, study committee, sports committee, and art committee in the middle school era are not required. This is also a difference between art schools and ordinary universities. When Xiao Yao was in college in his previous life, although there were no study committees or literary committees in his class, there were still deputy squad leaders, league secretary, and life committees.

  The male to female ratio in Xiao Yao’s class is five to three, that is, ten girls and six boys. It stands to reason that the squad leader should be produced among girls. On the one hand, there are more girls. On the other hand, the school stipulates that girls can enter the boys’ dormitory, but boys are prohibited from entering the girls’ dormitory, so it is more convenient for girls to be class monitors. However, this situation is not absolute. The performance department of Shen Opera has always had more women than men, and dormitory regulations have existed for many years, but there are actually quite a few boys in the acting department as monitors.

  Speaking of the 17th performance class that Xiao Yao is in, it is possible that boys are chosen as the class monitor, which is much higher than that of girls. The squad leader was selected on the first day of school. When everyone had no contact, it was based on impressions and feelings. In this case, the reputation of the students has a great advantage. After all, if you are a celebrity, you can still get some understanding of you from other channels, which is very different from a completely strange classmate. There are two performers who are more famous and can be regarded as celebrities, and both of them happen to be boys.

  In fact, when it comes to being known by everyone because you are famous, there are advantages and disadvantages to the selection of the monitor. It does not mean that if you are famous, you will be selected as the monitor by your classmates. It also depends on what kind of name you give. If you are all famous because of negative news, or if you are a celebrity who is shy and introverted and not suitable for being a squad leader, on the contrary, no one will object to you being a squad leader just because you know you. Fortunately, the public images of the two boys in the class are still more suitable for being class monitors.

  One of them is naturally Xiao Yao. Not to mention his achievements in performance and music, his identity as the No. 1 pick in the art exam alone, and the responsibility and courage shown in the incident of bravely fighting knife-bearing gangsters on the subway is enough to make his classmates regard him as the class leader. The best choice.

  In addition to Xiao Yao, another star student is Wang Zhi. In terms of fame and number of fans, Wang Zhi is naturally not far behind Xiao Yao, but compared to other students including Xiao Yao, Wang Zhi is the only actor in the class who has starred in a movie. In addition to starring in movies, Wang Zhi has another advantage that is his age. Of the 16 students in the class, 12 are 18-year-old or 19-year-old recent high school graduates, and three 20-year-old students are recent graduates from last year. Because they failed the art exam last year, they will retake the exam this year. Only admitted. The oldest Wang Zhi is 23 years old, and he is the only one in the class who has four years of social experience. However, his four years of social work experience is also related to acting.

  At the beginning of this year, Wang Zhi appeared as the male number one in the film "Dragon Set" by the famous director Cheng Ke. This film tells the story of the "Heng Piao" family who wanders in the Hengdian Film and Television Base in pursuit of film and television dreams. The main actors in the film are all selected from the extras who are not from a professional class. The names of the protagonists in the film are even The names of the actors are the same. Wang Zhineng was selected as the protagonist by director Cheng Ke, indicating that he was a "Heng Piao" before. After graduating from high school at the age of 19, Wang Zhi went to Hengdian to pursue his dream of being an actor. He stayed for four years until he was selected as the protagonist of the movie by Cheng Ke.

  Yes, just a little light. The film has been released in this year's summer season. Although the box office results can only be regarded as unsatisfactory, the reputation is still quite good. But the focus of this film is on the crowd of "Heng Piao" extras. Although Wang Zhi starred in this movie, he is still an extra. In the process of filming with a group of star actors who are willing to be green leaves, he was also deeply aware of his own shortcomings.

  Encouraged by the director Cheng Ke, Wang Zhi, who has temporarily resolved his worries, left the Hengdian resolutely and came to test the show. Although Wang Zhi's appearance conditions can only be regarded as average, and he can only be on the pass line required by the Shenxi Acting Department, but with the knowledge he has learned from those professional actors in his group acting career for several years and he has participated in countless film and television dramas. With his shooting experience, Wang Zhi was also admitted to this year's Shen Opera Acting Department as he wished.

  Having such an experience, Wang Zhi is also an excellent candidate for class monitor in the eyes of his classmates. Compared with Xiao Yao, most of the students are still more inclined to choose Xiao Yao.

  To be a little more realistic, I think Xiao Yao’s network resources are obviously much stronger than Wang Zhi. Whether it is current fame achievement or future potential, Xiao Yao is obviously stronger. The Appearance Association believes that Xiao Yao's looks and body are better than Wang Zhi. In terms of social experience, although Xiao Yao is a recent graduate, as an internationally renowned photographer, Xiao Yao may have been to more countries than the provinces in China where they have been, and social experience may not necessarily be sufficient. It's worse than Wang Zhi, who has been in Hengdian for four years. As for age, although Xiao Yao is four years behind Wang Zhi, Xiao Yao was a "monster" who was known for his precocious puberty since he was a child, and his mental maturity is not necessarily worse than Wang Zhi.

  As a squad leader candidate, Xiao Yao was nominated by others, and Wang Zhi recommended himself. Looking at the trend, it is obvious that Xiao Yao has a greater chance of being elected. However, before the vote, Xiao Yao stood up and quit the squad leader's election, and took the lead to express his attitude and vote for Wang Zhi.

It's not that Xiao Yao is unwilling to serve his classmates and contribute to the class, but university is different from high school. Xiao Yao didn't plan to spend most of his time in school in peace. There will definitely be a lot of miscellaneous things. To do it, there will be no shortage of absenteeism, and he doesn't want to have a monitor in his class who always sees no one. In that case, it is better to leave this opportunity to other people who want to be class monitors.

  On the first day of school, at the class meeting, Xiao Yao was definitely the first to say that he would often miss classes and ask for leave. But both the head teacher and the classmates understood Xiao Yao's reason quite well. Therefore, following Xiao Yao's intention, Wang Zhi was selected as the monitor.

  Hearing the squad leader Wang Zhi's yelling, Xiao Yao, who had gathered with Lin Qisan and Nina Aiguli to chat, immediately waved to the two and ran back to the team in his class. Speaking of these three people are not very lucky. In the third art exam, the three were in the same examination room and passed the art exam together. However, after enrolling in a class, the three were divided into three different classes. Xiao Yao was in the first class, Nina was in the second class, and Lin Qisan was in the third class. They were not able to be together.

  There are several buses and several military trucks parked on the playground, all dark green military vehicles. Buses carry people and trucks are responsible for transporting students’ luggage. At this time, several soldiers in straight military uniforms walked to the back of the truck and lowered the rear baffle. The students in each class lined up to put their luggage on the designated truck.

A truck must not only carry the luggage of one class student. When it was the students’ turn to perform, Wang Zhi and Xiao Yao, who stood at the forefront of the team, first lifted their suitcases and put them on the truck, and then they pulled each other. He climbed onto the car while holding the side baffle, then bent over and reached out to take the suitcases of the students behind, and stacked them neatly on the truck. Although he refused to be the squad leader, this kind of situation where Xiao Yao did physical work, Xiao Yao, who reached out quickly, still did his part.

   Put their luggage, the students quickly lined up to board the manned bus, and the military vehicles of these troops drove them to the barracks.

  The vehicle was also parked on a large playground. After the students got off the vehicle, they went to the truck and took off their luggage. Then several soldiers in military uniforms commanded them to gather on the playground.

"Class 2 of the Department of Photography, Class I, Class 2 of the Department of Literature, Class I, Class 2, and Class 3 of the Department of Performing Arts, Class 1 and Class 2 of the Recording Department, all boys, take your luggage and follow me!" Shouted his throat. Although it does not resonate in three ways, the masculine soldier style is obvious and the voice is extremely loud.

  Due to the small number of students enrolled in the film and television school, usually students in one department do not reach the size of a class, so students from several majors are brought together. What makes the students, especially the boys extremely speechless, is that they are still separated from boys and girls in the army.

"Six columns, line up from right to left in order of height, stand at attention! Quick! Quick! Quick!" The soldier just took them a little away from the place where they took their luggage, right on the playground. Stopped in a clearing, turned around and shouted loudly.

  I was sent for military training on the second day of school. Let alone students from other departments, none of the students in this department have known each other, and none of the students in this class have been familiar with each other. Everyone was walking with their luggage, chatting and saying hello. Hearing the roar of the soldier's brother, everyone hurriedly stood in line as required. Almost subconsciously, all the students in the same class stood next to each other, and then the students from the same department stood together as much as possible, so although they were standing in six columns, at first glance, the order of height is completely the same. There is no order.

Looking at the team in front of him, the soldier frowned and shouted loudly, "I said I didn’t hear the order of height? Look at what you are standing on? Tell you, here now, more than sixty of you. It's just a class, a group! There is no difference between the original department and the original class, understand?"

   "Understood!" dozens of students replied sparsely, some with high voices and some with low voices.

   "Do you understand?!" Brother Bing roared loudly.

   "Understood!" At this point, dozens of students all replied loudly.

"Now I'm starting to call the names, the ones who have the names, and take the luggage out, go to the dormitory number I announced to put the luggage, and sort the house." Brother Bing said with a roster, "The bedside and the cabinet have your names. The nameplate, follow the instructions on the nameplate, and you are not allowed to choose beds and cabinets at will, do you understand?"

   "Understood!" This time, all the well-behaved students replied loudly.

Brother Bing seemed to be quite satisfied this time, nodded and then continued: "When tidying up the house, clean out your mobile phones, snacks and other unnecessary things, find a bag or bag, and we will collect it together. If you find these things in the dormitory or yours in the future, don't blame us for being rude. Do you understand?"

   "Huh?" This time, the students did not answer clearly, but started talking.

  "Why can't I bring my mobile phone?"

   "You can't bring anything you eat, is there any mistake?"

   "That is, since you can't bring it, why didn't you tell us when you set off?"

  "Quiet!" Brother Bing yelled again, "This is a military camp, not your vacation place. You must follow the rules here. If you feel unsatisfied or can't accept it, you can now take your luggage and take the car back!"

  "Brother..." A boy raised his hand carefully.

   "Call a report before you speak," Bing said, "Also, I have to call the instructor! The voice is louder, I can't hear it when the voice is low."

  "Report to the instructor!" The boy shouted immediately.

  "Say!" Brother Bing, who was their instructor, replied powerfully.

   "If you go back now, how do you calculate the military training score?" the boy asked loudly.

   "Zero points!" the instructor said simply.

   "Huh?" A group of students suddenly became bitter. If you fail this military training, you won't even get a diploma.

   "Are there any questions?" the instructor asked again.

   "No!" The students replied feebly.

   "Are there any questions?" the instructor repeated loudly.

   "No!" The students could only shout.

"Very well, now we will start the call." The instructor looked at the roster and said, "Call those who click the name, and then go out. After I say the dormitory number, I will go directly upstairs to the dormitory." The instructor waved his finger and pointed behind him. building. It turned out that the dormitory was next to the playground where they are now.

   "Xiao Yao!" the instructor shouted.

   "Here!" Xiao Yao replied loudly. Because he was standing in the first row, Xiao Yao took a step forward, then stood at attention and raised his head.

   "Dormitory 303, go!" The instructor nodded in satisfaction and continued.

   "Yes!" Xiao Yao shouted again. He picked up the suitcase and ran directly to the third floor of the building behind the instructor.

   ran into the dormitory with the door wide open with his luggage. Xiao Yao looked at the room that was exactly the same as the army dormitory seen in the TV series, and smiled helplessly. Eight high and low iron frame beds stand in two rows in the dormitory. The beds are all the same dark green bedding. The cups and washbasins next to it are neatly placed, even the toothbrushes are facing the same direction. of. I just watched the student dormitory of Shen Opera and then looked at the dormitory of the military camp. The gap feels too big.

  Finding his name on the bottom bunk of an iron frame bed, Xiao Yao sat down on his bed and began to worry about the military training life that was about to begin. Judging from today's trend, it seems not fun at all. Xiao Yao was a little discouraged and fell on the quilt on the bed, and then bounced up like an electric shock, so he didn't even hit his head on the bottom bunk. Then he looked bitterly at the "tofu cube" that he had ruined.
