Chapter 37: A full man does not know the hunger of a hungry man
When he got off work and went back home, Uncle Cheng indeed went to Jing Xiaoqiang to ask what happened to the flight attendant.
This guy said Versailles lightly: "I can't help it. The attraction of cabaret is too strong. So I decided not to work in the cabaret in the future. These women are so annoying."
Every hair on Uncle Cheng's nose was filled with sorrow, and he was filled with grief and indignation: "You! You are simply a full man who doesn't know the hunger of a hungry man!"
Jing Xiaoqiang shook his head: "I didn't eat any of it. Fitness meals are the most important. Any protein loss at this time is unscientific."
Uncle Cheng's fists, which were wearing the Tudor watch, were shaking with anger.
But isn't such a son-in-law good? He tapped the center console with his fingers in relief: "The Robert in this tape is you?"
He no longer has any musical talent. These past two days, I heard Jing Xiaoqiang singing Hong Kong and Taiwan songs in the dance hall, and his iconic hoarse voice could all be heard overlapping.
Jing Xiaoqiang nodded: "It's to make money to buy a house, but this involves copyright. I won't allow them to mention my name and photo in the future. What do you think? Rich families have never done such embarrassing things as secretly covering other people's songs, right?"
Uncle Cheng still had the same theory: "You are the son-in-law, you can shirk any responsibility, what do you think of Nannan today?"
I spent the whole night and only remembered to ask when I got home, just like a kid rushing to finish homework before school starts.
Jing Xiaoqiang laughed: "Very good, very good, don't be so wishful, I can't afford you, and I don't like being constrained. Please be polite and take the fare, ten yuan per trip, not counting the night."
Uncle Cheng actually said he would go back to ask his mother to pay it back. He is a complete debt evader.
Then the old lady was not easy to deal with: "No, no, it's the driver, he's a very good kid. Xiulan brought the Citibank phone box to Xiaoqiang and put it in the car. It will also be convenient for future contact. I heard it's very convenient."
Jing Xiaoqiang was about to cry, the internet subscription fee for this mobile phone was three thousand!
How long will it take to pay for the bus fare?
Holding this big Motorola brick, Jing Xiaoqiang felt like crying but had no tears . You can't cheat a young driver like this.
But Uncle Cheng had already happily put the phone in his car, and then hugged him and whispered, "I'll invite you to the dance hall next time!"
He won't suffer any loss anyway.
There was no place to put the stuff worth more than 20,000 yuan, so I had to throw it in the passenger seat glove box.
Even in the garage of a big hotel, you have to put it in a well-lit place to avoid being stolen.
After all, I still don’t have my own house, my own home.
Jing Xiaoqiang, who may have rented a house in New York for decades, is particularly concerned about this matter.
The next morning, after finishing work at the gym and having breakfast with the old guys, I rode my bike back to the rental house in Lane 20 and made my fitness meal as usual, boiling it in water, steaming it, adding some olive oil and other seasonings. It was simple and quick.
To him, this place was just a kitchen, and he never entered that room even though he had a key.
Whether to renew the stay after these two months depends on the situation at the school.
Cooking is not allowed in the main dormitories and hotels.
Finally, carrying the denim bag that Lu Xi bought, he rode into the noisy and bustling drama academy.
It’s just that he, a freshman with almost nothing, is in stark contrast to his classmates who are carrying large bags and are accompanied by their parents.
So much so that the first reaction of the sixty or so students in the 1990 class of the Stage Design Department was that this boy must be a local?
There are indeed quite a few local students at Shanghai Theatre Academy, and you can tell from their appearance and clothing.
It is obvious that the proportion of appearance in art schools is definitely higher than that in ordinary universities.
Even the stage design department that Jing Xiaoqiang applied for presented an artistic atmosphere that was different from that of the society. It was even much more fashionable than when he saw his classmates in the stage design department of Pingjing Drama Academy in his previous life.
And it is quite different from Hepingjing Drama Academy.
When we were admitted, we were basically majoring in stage art. For other categories, most of them recruited local people from Beijing through interviews.
Here, about sixty people have to study together for a period of time, and then they are divided into several extremely professional directions such as stage design, stage scenery, stage lighting, stage makeup, stage costumes, and stage technology according to their characteristics and grades.
Jing Xiaoqiang personally thinks that this arrangement is more reasonable and also gives more opportunities to other children from all over the country.
Because stage lighting is ultimately an electrician with an artistic touch, so one must be good at physics and have strong hands-on skills, which cannot be tested in art exams and requires some time to acquire.
Professional makeup requires good hands. If you are careless and clumsy , how can you do delicate work on the face?
Therefore, in the era of underdeveloped economy, these majors basically gave interview opportunities to local children, but art is a profession that emphasizes talent.
If we only select materials from one place, the choices will be much narrower and not fair. It will also limit the artistic development prospects of these professions.
By the same token, it can be seen that the professional talent for repairing the palace is dwindling, and the children of internal employees are arranged to learn a craft from each other, resulting in the spirit of craftsmanship becoming less and less, but the artistic level becoming lower and lower.
This situation will gradually change only after about ten years of the new century.
But all this was no problem for Jing Xiaoqiang. Back then... oh, in the last few years of his life, he had already graduated with excellent results in stage scenery painting, not to mention his current makeup skills.
If he wasn't too proficient in other professions, he wouldn't mind learning a lesser skill to pass the time.
Just for fun.
So I first found the dormitory, put down my bag, and went to pay tuition with a few boys I just met. I stayed by the counter in the finance office and refused to leave.
At this time, boys always collude with each other quickly without any prior agreement.
Jing Xiaoqiang very skillfully occupied the prime position at the door of the finance office. There were several documents such as payment instructions posted on the wall, and he pretended to look up to see them.
I escaped the chase of the lady in the finance office: "What are you doing? What are you doing? You've just entered the school and you're looking around like that!"
Those shameless boys from Shanghai had no choice but to leave with red faces. Only one boy from southern Henan shamelessly stayed by, and another from eastern Shandong pretended not to hear anything.
In the end, they were all chased out by the tough aunt: "You look like a sly person!"
The only thing he ignored was the tall and strong figure of Jing Xiaoqiang standing at the door.
Maybe the latissimus dorsi muscles in the plaid shirt and white T-shirt are too broad.
After this one performance alone, the boys majoring in stage design were full of admiration for Jing Xiaoqiang.
Because girls may take a little time, they will come to pay tuition after ten o'clock.
Many of them were accompanied by their parents.
I don’t want my beautiful daughter to be taken advantage of by others, so I have to guard against her for every second I can.
How beautiful are they? The admission rate of girls majoring in acting in drama academies is basically only a few thousandths.
Moreover, there are a thousand girls who think they are pretty enough to act in movies and TV shows and apply for the exam, but only a few of them will be admitted in the end!
These girls who come to apply for the exam are probably the campus beauties or class beauties from various high schools.
Fifty. There are only fifty freshmen in the two majors of the Department of Performance in each class, half of whom are girls, and occasionally there will be more girls.
Then there are dozens of people in other majors such as screenwriting and literature, twenty in broadcasting, a dozen in directing, and dozens in radio and television. Among the more than 200 people in total, stage design is undoubtedly a major department.
Jing Xiaoqiang really didn't expect that it was just a subconscious action, and he became famous in the stage design department.
Originally, he was just joking and wanted to see the beauties, but it was mainly because he was too skilled. He kept glancing at the beautiful freshmen who came in wave after wave.
I have been evaluating and scoring in my heart, thinking about what kind of makeup can be taken to the next level.
It made the boys outside who admired her excited and contemptuous at the same time.
You dare to stay in there, and you don’t dare to turn around?
I'm not a mentor, so why did I turn around? I was just curious to see the fun. I did see a face that looked vaguely familiar and will become very famous in the future.
It is really interesting to be reborn into the drama industry, and to see how future stars get started.
But whether other people are popular or not has nothing to do with Jing Xiaoqiang, and he has no intention of clinging to other people's fate.
Because he understands what this business is all about.
Those who become famous are not good people.
But this indifferent mentality made him turn around and greet Lori as soon as he saw her.
The one who was very familiar with the situation went over to guide them: "New students, today is the day for new students to register and pay tuition fees. Come over here and fill out the forms first..."
He was so serious and skilled that the finance ladies at the counter nodded their heads and spoke in the local dialect: "Finally, someone in the student union understands what's going on. We have to explain to every student who comes. We've talked until our mouths are dry."
Yes, there are dozens or even hundreds of excited freshmen who ask everything, and there are dozens or even hundreds of parents who know nothing but want to arrange everything.
The scene was as chaotic as a vegetable market.
When parents look at this tall and broad boy, they all want to entrust their precious daughters to him!
The deputy general manager of the theater is best at putting a seemingly chaotic situation into order.
Jing Xiaoqiang unobtrusively guided Luo Li step by step to complete the formalities while communicating with many people.
I also learned this name from the form she filled out.
Department of Drama Literature, which is the screenwriting major.
Among so many professional performing beauties at the scene, her appearance is really inconspicuous.
Jing Xiaoqiang, however, thought it was a rough gem.
Subconsciously, I felt that I should help this child to open up the situation.
