Literacy test?

Hearing this word, not only the contestants on the stage were dumbfounded, but also the audience in front of the live broadcast room were shocked.

Although there have been some speculations before, everyone was still a little shocked when they actually heard the announcement of the program group.

[Fuck, there is actually an exam! 】

[This is the first variety show I've seen that allows contestants to take a written test. I have to say that this show group is very good at playing. 】

[Hahaha, I've had enough of some goofy things in the entertainment industry for a long time! How can you be an actor if you don't even have basic cultural knowledge? 】

[Don't talk about variety shows, I support a cultural literacy test for all stars in the entertainment industry. Some stars can't do anything except a face! 】

The barrage instantly flew up, and under the live broadcast camera, the contestants reacted immediately after learning about the exam, and everyone had a panoramic view.

Some players were eager to try, and some players calmed down after the initial surprise. Of course, there were also some contestants whose complexions became uneasy.

Bi Yi was one of them with a bad complexion.

He didn't like studying since he was a child, and his grades in cultural subjects were very poor, and he couldn't even pass the college entrance examination.

Fortunately, he has a fairly good-looking face.

With this face, he was successfully spotted by scouts, and has since embarked on the road of the entertainment industry.

He didn't finish his studies, and he didn't bother to finish them.

In his opinion, what is the use of a higher level of education? Those academic bullies studied hard for more than ten years, and the salary they got after graduation was not as good as a fraction of his.

Maybe they will end up working under him.

Whenever he thinks of these things, Bi Yi feels a slightly distorted pleasure in his heart.

But now, looking at the papers in front of him, Bi Yi's mood is extremely bad.

What the **** is this variety show doing?

They are just actors, why should their cultural level be tested!

Bi Yi really wanted to curse now.

There is no fixed criterion for judging such things as acting skills. A few random nonsense words can't be seen by amateurs, and they can barely fool fans and passers-by.

However, the test results are real, and the scores cannot be faked at all.

[Wow, it's started, everyone is starting to write. 】

【Haha, speaking of it, I'm really curious about what the exam questions for actors are usually. 】

[I took a look. The test questions of this program group should refer to the assessment of drama actors, and some of the points of examination are the same. 】

[I still remember the previous National Youth Singer Competition, where all contestants participated in the cultural knowledge assessment on the spot, that was the real selection of top talents... Now that I think about it, it is really nostalgic. 】

There are five types of questions in the test paper, namely theoretical literacy, logical thinking ability, writing level, professional ability, and a small part of cultural common sense.

The cultural knowledge questions are very simple. As long as you have studied them carefully in junior high school, you can basically answer 80% of the questions correctly.

Most of the contestants answered relatively smoothly. Everyone read the questions carefully and then answered quickly. For a while, the entire stage was very quiet, only the rustling of pens falling on paper.

Bi Yi was sitting on the seat with "No. 28" printed on it, but his face was particularly ugly.

He stared at the text in front of him, and read the questions one by one, and there were few questions he could answer.

How could such a question be asked? How can the topic be so difficult?

Bi Yi's hand holding the pen trembled slightly, and finally he could only gather his mind, guess an answer at random, and then fill in the answer box crookedly.

[Sisters, the beautiful sister on the 87th answered really well! One question in ten seconds, you can know the answer at a glance, it's not too smooth. 】

[The uncle on the 12th seems to have answered well, he got most of the questions right. 】

[I can answer most of the questions such as logical thinking, cultural knowledge and writing level correctly. However, it is really not clear about the professional knowledge of actors. 】

[I observed around, and finally found out that there are actually people who can miscalculate the simplest single-digit multiplication...]

[? ? ? 】

[Good guy, it's really wise to conduct a cultural literacy test in advance for this variety show, Jiu Leu Yu was detected immediately. 】

There are 60 minutes to answer the questions, but it is not boring.

Many people switched different perspectives in the live broadcast room to see the answers of each contestant separately. Some even tried to answer the questions themselves, and new discussions kept popping up in the comment area.

As time passed minute by minute, with the sound of "ding bell", it was finally time to hand in the paper.

The staff came up to collect the test papers. Since most of them are multiple-choice questions, the correction process should be very fast.

After the live broadcast of today's program is completed, the results of the contestants should be announced.

"The written test is over, and the results will be announced later. All contestants can go to the big screen to check your test scores."

"In the next exam, we will conduct a simple test on the basic requirements of actors - the three aspects of sound, stage, and shape in the "sound table form table". Please prepare well."

The shape of the sound stage, that is, vocal music, lines, shape, and performance. These are the most basic four subjects in the acting department.

Because of the "performance" part, it will be carried out in the follow-up contestants on the same stage. So in this quiz, it is mainly about the first three tests.

Bi Yi also stood up with everyone, and his heart sank completely when he heard that the results of the written test would be announced.

Once the results and rankings were announced, he really didn't even have the last fig leaf—this variety show group didn't show mercy to the contestants at all!

Bi Yi was very anxious. He knew that his performance in his first appearance was not satisfactory, and his first impression was lagging behind.

How does this allow him to attract fans?

No, he has to do something...

It is best to increase exposure and popularity for yourself to make up for the loss caused by poor grades.

Thinking of this, Bi Yi took a deep breath, and suddenly raised his hand to speak: "Director, I want to ask... Will the results of this written test be the basis for the next grouping?"

Hearing his words, the other players immediately looked over.

The director of the program group stood on the stage not far away. Hearing this question, he was slightly taken aback, and finally nodded: "Well, we will finally divide the contestants into groups based on their comprehensive scores."

When Bi Yi heard this, he secretly thought in his heart that it was indeed so.

If this is the case, then he has to fight for his own interests.

"Director, we are all just actors, isn't it a little too harsh to ask for our cultural level?"

The director looked at him suspiciously: "Then what do you mean?"

Bi Yi took a deep breath, and said slowly: "I think... as the saying goes, there are specializations in the arts, and actors only need to have acting skills."

In fact, Bi Yi's words were also on the minds of some players. It's just that everyone didn't ask directly.

After all, if an actor is literate, it can be the icing on the cake.

But if an actor is uneducated but has good acting skills, he is not the same as a very good actor.

[Laughing, can you take a look at your own acting skills when you say this? It's as if your acting skills are good. 】

[I think he's right. He's here to act, not to take college entrance exams. 】

[Heizi, don't spout, my Yi brother's acting skills are not good. This program group has to make it difficult for the actors to take the exam, so don't look too ugly. 】

[Look clearly, this is a cultural literacy test. You can have poor academic performance, but you can't even have basic cultural literacy! 】

[I don't care about that much, anyway, some idols don't even have basic common sense, they can't write Chinese characters, and they can't calculate simple math problems. 】

Discussions quickly started on the barrage, and the director of the program group settled down, and his mind quickly turned.

Their program doesn't have a script, so they can only watch the performances of the contestants and the program crew on the spot, and grasp all the points that may become popular.

And Bi Yi's question is undoubtedly a good opportunity.

"Contestant No. 28, I admit that what you said makes sense," the director said slowly, "However, if an actor doesn't have enough cultural literacy, how can he act well in a play? How can he interpret his role perfectly? Woolen cloth?"

Hearing this, Bi Yi was slightly taken aback.

Director: "Since you are an actor, you have to understand the script. You need to understand the story and get into the inner world of the characters. If you don't have cultural literacy and basic logical deduction ability, then you can't even understand the script. !"

He paused, glanced at the other contestants on the stage, and finally looked at Bi Yi.

"Of course, you can forcefully act according to your own understanding. Then in the end, you are likely to play a decent character into a despicable person, and you may even directly distort the three views of a play."

"Whether it's TV series or movies, they are all for adults. Everyone has received nine-year compulsory education, not three-year-old children."

"If the actors lack cultural literacy, can you perfectly express the connotation and theme of the script? Can you rely on your performance to convince the audience?"

Bi Yi: "..."

Bi Yi opened his mouth, not even knowing what to say for a moment.

Indeed, actors need to understand the script. In short, it is reading comprehension to pass the test, with basic cultural literacy and logical thinking.

Only on this basis can we talk about acting skills.

Bi Yi's lips trembled, and he already regretted his impulsive speech.

However, the words had already been spoken, so he could only bite the bullet and continue talking.

Bi Yi: "I think... even if your own cultural literacy is not good enough, you can make up for this gap by carefully studying the script and pondering the psychology of the characters."

The director thought for a while: "You also make sense."

After finishing speaking, he paused and nodded politely to Bi Yi: "Then, I hope you can achieve good results in the next performance session."

Bi Yi was still waiting for the director's rebuttal, and was about to continue accepting the move, but unexpectedly, the other party directly shifted the topic to himself.

Bi Yi: "..." He was about to lose his mind.

Wait, no, he didn't mean that!

He just wanted to question the rules of the program group. Who told you that he would make up for this gap in the subsequent performances?

Doesn't he know what level his own acting skills are!

Bi Yi opened his mouth, wanting to say something else, but the director no longer paid attention to him.

With the sound of the broadcast, the program group directly announced the start of the next process.

[Hahahaha, I laughed so hard, on the 28th, are you digging a hole for yourself? 】

[Not necessarily, what if someone really has that strength? dog head]

【If he can really stand out in the performance part, it will definitely make up for the gap in the written test. I also recognize his strength. 】

[Heizi don't call me righteous brother, okay? Brother Yi's acting skills are very strong. You don't have much culture yourself, and you still laugh at others, you can do what you want. 】

【Ok? Where did this idiot come from. But to be honest, I can pass the test paper of this level. 】

Bi Yi didn't know how the barrage talked about him, so he walked off the stage in a daze.

The other players were also standing in the background. After the round of written test just now, everyone got serious, gathered together in twos and threes, discussing the next three tests.

Bi Yi walked over slowly, and met his male roommate with glasses head-on.

The boy with glasses pushed his glasses, showing an expression of admiration: "Awesome brother!"

Bi Yi: "?"

The boy with glasses: "I didn't expect that although you were not good at the written test, you were very good at the exhibition competition - you even set a flag for the director on the spot."

He paused, then patted Bi Yi on the shoulder: "Come on during the exhibition match, I'm optimistic about you."

Bi Yi: "..."

Couldn't this man see that he accidentally jumped into the pit and now it's hard to get off?

Where did this nerd come from, crazy!

The following small tests went very smoothly. According to the requirements of the program group, each contestant took about 15 minutes of the test.

The shape of the sound table was originally a compulsory course for an actor.

Regrettably, Bi Yi's performance in this link is still quite unsatisfactory.

In addition, his written test results were also very bad, and his overall score ranked last, so he was directly assigned to the last group - Group F.

And that night, related entries also appeared on the hot searches.

#Do you think actors should have basic cultural accomplishment#

#actor training camp cultural exam#

#actor written test topic#

Although in recent years, some netizens have always clamored for the star to be assessed, but it has never been implemented.

"Actor Training Camp" is the first variety show to do so.

[Awesome! What is the name of this variety show, I rushed to watch it. 】

[In my opinion, celebrities should take the exam, and those who fail the exam cannot make their debut. Otherwise, there is really no threshold at all to be a star. 】

[This variety show is too strong! Before, I saw that they advertised that they can chase stars for free, and now they have started to let contestants take exams. It is really a clear stream in the entertainment industry. 】

[This is only the first day of airing, so it's probably just a gimmick. The subsequent routines must be the same as other variety shows, haha. 】

In this way, the "Actor Training Camp" variety show directly rushed to the top of the hot search list with this topic.

However, the topic of speculating on CP bought specifically for the two contestants in "Good Drama PK Competition" was directly pushed to the back, and there was no splash at all.

As for the hot search they originally bought, it fell directly.

When the program director of the good drama PK competition saw the news, his expression turned ugly.

"Damn it... I knew it!" He put his hands behind his back and paced back and forth in the room.

He already knew that these two variety shows had already collided, and the enthusiasm that originally belonged to them would definitely be split away.

It's just that he didn't expect that the opponent's approach was so ferocious, and he immediately took a strong medicine as soon as he came up.

"Cultural exam...what else do they want to do?" The director gritted his teeth, feeling extremely heavy.

Letting a group of celebrities take cultural exams is not purely sick.

Does she think this is to select some high-tech talents?

This time, not only was the director in a bad mood, but the contestants were also in a bad mood.

There is no other reason, the hot searches they bought were all squeezed by "Actors Training Camp".

"We broadcast live marketing for so long yesterday, but now, no one else pays attention to it except fans?" Some players looked at their background data, and such a gap made him feel at a loss.

Someone next to him sneered: "What are you? There are still people in my fan group who are in Amway's "Actor Training Camp". It is estimated that half of our fans will leave in a short time."

"No, that variety show actually encourages fans to go whoring for nothing."

When the word "whore for nothing" was mentioned, the contestants were all gnashing their teeth.

If you don’t spend money on idols, then what kind of fan are you?

This variety show is clearly challenging their bottom line and the rules of the industry unscrupulously.

"This is not the worst..." Someone took a deep breath and said slowly, "Did you find out that the contestant named Bi Yi participated in our program before, but was eliminated."

Hearing this, the other players were taken aback.

Bi Yi?

Of course they remembered him, a young fresh meat with a pretty good looks, but unfortunately because the people who praised him were not strong enough, and his own personality was not distinctive, he regretted quitting in the end.

Now, he actually went to the "Actor Training Camp"?

"I remember that Bi Yi's acting skills can be regarded as above-average among us," one of the brown-haired girls said anxiously, "What if he goes to Yao Bianliang's headquarters and immediately becomes popular, what should we do?" ?”

They also remember the tragic experience of "Best Music Producer".

Several F-level players who were eliminated were directly recruited by Yao Bianliang, and became famous all over the world with a divine song.

This also directly led to the word-of-mouth collapse of "Best Music Producer".

"No, I don't think so..." Someone swallowed, and said slowly, "What I'm worried about now is that after Bi Yi goes to "Actor Training Camp", he will be directly hanged and beaten by the people there."

Brown-haired girl: "..."

If this is the case, wouldn't it be even worse!

Bi Yi's identity was not a secret. Not only these players noticed, but soon, some netizens also discovered it.

[Brothers, did I read it wrong? Isn't the No. 28 contestant who talked to the director the same as Bi Yi in "Good Drama PK Competition"? 】

[It's that Bi Yi, I remember that his acting skills are quite strong, and he was highly praised by the judges and mentors at that time. 】

[Bi Yi's acting skills are quite watery, the instructor is just boasting out of affection, he understands everything. 】

[Brother Yi's acting skills are not good enough? Some black fans don't use their brains. The directors in the PK competition of the good drama all recognized Brother Yi's acting skills, saying that his acting skills exploded! 】

[Is this player's acting skills good? I am lost. I remember he was ranked last in "Actor Training Camp". 】

[Black fans get out. Brother Yi just got a little worse in cultural subjects. An actor is an actor, so why should I look at the results of the culture class? 】

The passer-by said a few words, and was inexplicably labeled as a black fan. Immediately, he couldn't suppress his anger and quarreled with the fans.

The fans tried their best to prove that their brother's acting skills are very good. For this reason, they quarreled thousands of floors with a mediocre Weibo, and directly topped the popular front row.

Some people even directly dug out the video of "Good Drama PK Competition".

In the video screen, Bi Yi performed the scene of "looking back and smiling", and was praised by the judges and instructors as "the acting skills are bursting, and he is a rising star".

As for other passers-by who didn't know the situation, Monk Zhang Er was also puzzled when they saw this situation.

[So what are you arguing about? 】

[To sum it up in one sentence, contestant No. 28 was praised for his acting skills in "Good Drama PK Competition", but he became a poor student in "Actor Training Camp" and was assigned to the last group. 】

[Hahahaha I laughed when I heard this description, is there such a thing? 】

[Actually, you don’t need to argue at all. Whether the No. 28 contestant is performing well or not, we will be able to see when the next episode of "Actors Training Camp" starts broadcasting. 】

———

"Actors Training Camp", backstage lounge.

Yao Bianliang was half lying on the chair, looking at the comments on the Internet, the corners of his lips curled up in satisfaction.

Although several parties were arguing hard, they probably haven't realized that there is only one focus of debate left - acting skills.

They didn't worry about which player was good-looking, or whether they had a girlfriend, or what their personality was like.

Their focus has changed from other side issues to acting issues.

This is the purpose of Yao Bianliang.

For other variety shows, on the first day of the live broadcast, the contestants will choose to make their appearances and show off their personalities, so as to attract fans and hype the topic.

But Yao Bianliang doesn't need these, she needs the audience to pay more attention to a contestant's acting skills.

Therefore, she arranged exams for the contestants on the first day, and grouped them directly according to their comprehensive scores.

——In this way, the audience's first impression of these actors will no longer be the labeled "student character design", "foodie character design", and "affectionate character design".

There is only one standard left to divide all the players—

strength!

And such a standard will run through the entire variety show.

Everyone has a strong admiration mentality, especially in places like fan circles.

With this first day's variety show live broadcast as the basis, it is conceivable that outstanding actors should have higher popularity; while those players who only know how to show their faces, sell their misery, and sell their designs will be in a very passive position.

Thinking of this, Yao Bianliang's mood became even happier.

If this plan is successful, they will be able to cultivate a group of excellent new generation actors!

The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and the front waves die on the beach.

With a few more batches of actors like this, is her road to becoming cool still far away?

While I was thinking about it, I heard a "squeak", and the door of the room opened.

"Sister Liang, the players are going to be training tomorrow, right?" Wen Xuan pushed the door into the lounge, stretching herself.

She hasn't accepted too many commercial endorsements recently, and after taking a break, she feels much more energetic.

"I asked the program team, they have already assigned the script, and we will gather these players for training tomorrow—by the way, what time will they get up tomorrow?"

Yao Bianliang pondered for a while: "Five o'clock."

Wen Xuan was taken aback: "Five o'clock in the afternoon?"

Yao Bianliang: "No, five o'clock in the morning."

Wen Xuan: "??"

The hottest contestant in the "Good Drama PK Competition" next door only woke up at seven o'clock!

Facing Shang Wenxuan's bewildered expression, Yao Bianliang smiled and patted her on the shoulder reassuringly.

"It's okay, if you judges can't get up, it's okay, I can go alone." Yao Bianliang comforted.

It doesn't matter whether Wenxuan and the others work hard, the important thing is that the players must work hard.

After all, according to the system requirements, when she, the host, was acting, she had to get up early and stay late, and even turned day and night upside down for acting.

She has to work so hard, how can she let those players lie down and enjoy it?

They have to work harder than her.

Thinking like this, Yao Bianliang looked down at the list in his hand, and gently rubbed the paper with his fingers.

One hundred players are one hundred treasures waiting to be discovered.

Whether she can cool down depends on their efforts!
