Chapter 379: Preparing for the Examination

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When Shen Jun returned, Wen Nian had already started practicing swordplay in the room.

The content of the film academy entrance exam seemed simple, but the actual requirements were high.

The first two exams were recitations of self-prepared scripts, which was nothing challenging for Wen Nian, who had experience in hosting training in her past life. She was quite confident. However, after the recitation, there was a talent showcase, and though the school’s enrollment brochure stated simple requirements with no specific format, Wen Nian knew the talent showcase was crucial.

The talent showcase could reveal your family background, your specialties, and even the entertainment path you might take in the future.

Wen Nian was proficient in piano playing, but anyone interested could probably find videos of her performances at school, especially the one that caught Xu Chang’s attention. The school teachers were likely aware of it.

So, her talent had to be unique; being too common wouldn’t make her stand out. Moreover, the annual quota at the Film Academy in the capital was limited. If she didn’t stand out, she wouldn’t be selected in the end. Therefore, she had to seize the opportunity.

The final part of the performing arts comprehensive exam was essentially an acting test. Although most candidates hadn’t studied acting, those aspiring for this path probably began preparing a year or two ago. With her experience from her past life, Wen Nian was naturally not worried.

The only concern was whether the talent showcase would earn her extra points. If she wasn’t shortlisted after the talent showcase, she wouldn’t have the chance for the final interview.

Looking at Wen Nian, who was fiddling with his sword, Shen Jun smiled and said, “Heroine Wen’s swordsmanship is really not bad, right? Didn’t you learn mixed martial arts in school back then? Did the teacher give you special treatment?”

Wen Nian gave him a sidelong glance, continued practicing, and couldn’t say that she had experience from her past life.

Gradually, Shen Jun also saw the intricacies. Wen Nian’s wrist flew, although the movements were slow, they were very coordinated. With a gentle rotation, the longsword could swiftly move, emitting a gleam under the lights.

After practicing for a while, the doorbell rang, and the waiter brought dinner.

“This can be reimbursed by Ding Sheng, right?” Wen Nian hesitated, looking at the expensive seafood feast.

To reassure her, Shen Jun could only say that he had ordered it.

“Look at how useless you are. I ordered it.” Shen Jun gently tapped her head. “All the seafood in this hotel is especially fresh. There are exams in the next few days. Eat here first to ensure your condition.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Nian had already started eating the seafood baked rice. “Then I won’t stand on ceremony. Come quickly. This is delicious! As expected of a big hotel!”

After a luxurious night at the high-end hotel, the next morning, Wen Nian got up early and changed into the clothes Tian Juan had prepared.

Tian Juan knew Wen Nian’s strengths – simple T-shirts, shirts, and either jeans or sweatpants.

Wen Nian chose a white stand-collar shirt and slim-fit jeans. With her tall figure and beautiful legs, this outfit not only highlighted her advantages but also gave off a student-like vibe.

For the second round of the audition, which included a talent show, Tian Juan specially prepared an improved Hanfu. The gentle green color, paired with Wen Nian’s long sword, showcased both a heroic and graceful style.

Wen Nian secretly praised Tian Juan’s sense of aesthetics, but then she became puzzled. If Tian Juan had such good taste, why did she always wear sportswear every time they met?

As she was contemplating this, Tian Juan arrived in the room, still in sportswear. However, today’s black T-shirt had a big red heart, showing some improvement.

“I’ve inquired already. This year, there are 30,000 applicants, and the performance department only accepts a little over a hundred. I estimate that 90% of these 30,000 are here for the performance department.” Tian Juan had obviously gathered information early on. After sharing this, she drank a large glass of water.

Wen Nian quickly poured her another cup of warm water. Tian Juan looked grateful, but she immediately said, “I saw many small celebrities coming just now. The reporters probably went to wait around four. Most of the places we’re staying are filled with candidates. But I found out that I signed you up early, so your test center is towards the front. You’ll finish the preliminary test in the morning, and the second round happens the day after tomorrow..”
