Shang Xiaorui attended a well-known animation school in the top 3 in the United States. It has a strong faculty and specially hired a number of well-known bigwigs in the animation industry to become visiting professors at the school.
Miranda Ikeda is the number one boss of the animation department of Rainstorm Company. On the 5th and 20th of every month, she will fly all the way to New York to give two major classes to the students of the animation school.
The 500-person classroom was so crowded that even the aisles were full of people.
As soon as the bell rang for the end of get out of class, Ikeda immediately closed the notebook and walked away from the podium.
The high heels collide with the marble floor, echoing in the hallway. However, no matter how fast she walked, she couldn't get rid of the enthusiastic group of students behind her.
There are similar sets, those who ask for guidance, those who submit resumes, and those who simply want to sign autographs by her fans... Ikeda is overwhelmed, with a stern face, and the aura builds an invisible wall.
Turning around the last corner, Ikeda was startled by the man who was "ambushing" here.
It was a young man with black hair and yellow skin, and he was dignified. Because he was of Asian descent, Ikeda subconsciously glanced at the man.
With just one glance, Ikeda concluded that he could never be a student of the animation school.
The animation school has a strong artistic atmosphere, and the students are dressed in a variety of strange styles, with various hairstyles and colors, various piercings and tattoos... This young man is dressed concisely and cleanly, his white shirt is neatly tucked into black slacks, and his hair is neatly groomed. neat and tidy.
He opened his mouth to introduce himself, and his voice had a unique texture: "Hello, Professor Ikeda, I'm... "
"It doesn't matter who you are," Miranda Ikeda interrupted. "You're not an animation student, are you?"
"…?"
Ikeda was particularly vicious: "Look at your clothes, you look like a stock manager who just walked out of the bank!"
The young man was dumbfounded.
Before he could say the second sentence, Shang Xiaorui, who ran wild with a schoolbag, finally caught up with them.
"Professor Ikeda!" Shang Xiaorui ran out of breath in order to get rid of other classmates. "You, hello... I'm Shang Xiaorui, a first-year graduate student at the School of Animation. This is my friend Tan Yiming."
"Shang Xiaorui?" Ikeda's beautiful eyes flowed, and her red lips raised an arc, "I know you, you won the second place in the National Student Animation Competition last year, right?"
Shang Xiaorui was flattered and hurriedly said yes.
This opening is much better than they expected!
Professor Ikeda is famous, but even more famous than her is her bad temper. Shang Xiaorui was only one of the thousands of students in the animation school. If he rashly asked for a letter of recommendation, he would definitely not be able to get it.
Tan Yiming could only block her way from get off work, with the courage of desperate attempts to try her luck.
Unexpectedly, Professor Ikeda has actually seen their works!
"Your work impresses me deeply." Professor Ikeda said, "It is true that the script is a little simpler, but I really like your expression of nostalgia. The picture has a strong oriental style, and the soundtrack and dubbing can also arouse the audience's emotions very much, yes Excellent work."
"Thank you, thank you!" Shang Xiaorui showed joy, and hurriedly dragged Tan Yiming beside him, "He is the voice actor of that short animation!"
With this foreshadowing, Tan Yiming picked up immediately, made a brief self-introduction, and then said his request.
"Young man, you are so brave." Ikeda raised his eyebrows and asked sarcastically, "One of the roles revealed this time is a Japanese female scientist. You can never guess how much I have to deal with during this time. The compatriots who come to set up relationships... I haven't even written their recommendation letters, why do you think that I will set this precedent for you? "
Japan's animation industry is well-developed, and it is a well-known seiyuu country. There are hundreds of seiyuu offices across the country. Why is the ten internal referral quotas enough? Ikeda's private mailbox is leaked for some reason. During this period of time, she was very disturbed. Many people who came to set up relationships were not "little transparent", but well-known seniors in the seiyuu industry. There are thousands of works that have been matched.
Ikeda asked: "Since you can recommend yourself, you must be very confident in yourself. Then tell me, compared with them, do you have richer work experience? Are you more vocal? Or are you more capable?"
"..." Tan Yiming was silent for only a few seconds, then answered immediately, "I just want to be on that planet more than everyone else."
"What did you say?"
Tan Yiming's tone was sincere and sincere: "I know that compared with my predecessors, I still have a lot of shortcomings. The resumes of any of them are beyond my reach now. They have dubbed international actresses. , the animation works they performed sold Changhong... They have witnessed all the glory, all the stars, or they themselves are the glory and the stars.
"—Compared with them, I have nothing in my hand. But it is because I have not been on that planet that I desire it more than anyone else."
That planet refers to the Mars that the astronaut failed to set foot on in the game character design; it also refers to dreams and success.
Tan Yiming's voice slowly said: "A friend once told me that the easiest way to get the moon is to fish for the moon in water; but he also told me that the moon caught in the water is fake after all, and only by paying thousands of times It takes twice as much effort to truly land on that planet.”
That's why he stood here, summoned up the courage to stop Professor Ikeda, he put aside himself, and hoped that the other party could see his determination and perseverance.
In his hand, he holds the CD that he has filled, which contains his resume and collection of works. In the past six months, he has received a lot of works one after another, many of which have been released, but most of them are nothing.
But he knew that as long as the star was still hanging in the sky, his efforts would not go wrong.
"..." Ikeda looked at the young man in front of him, and his eyes fell on the CD in his hand. This CD carries Tan Yiming's dream. Her lips moved slightly, "Take it back, I won't take it."
Tan Yiming looked startled and showed a wry smile.
Unexpectedly, this arrogant lady still has half a sentence to finish.
"What's the age, are you still using CDs?" She took out a business card from her wallet, put it on the CD, and tapped the CD case with her bright red fingertips, making a crisp sound. Click sound. "This is my work mailbox. Prepare a one-minute self-introduction, one-minute recitation, and three-minute dubbing performance. Send it here before tomorrow night."
Her expression and tone were no longer arrogant at the beginning: "Of course, I will listen to your work first. If your work is too bad, I will not waste my precious referral quota on you."
Tan Yiming understood immediately after a brief shock - his words moved Miranda Ikeda, and she agreed to write a letter of recommendation for him!
He took the business card in both hands, bowing and saying thank you sincerely.
Before meeting with Professor Ikeda today, he didn't give himself a chance to think about what he would do if he failed. But when success really came, he was infinitely more happy than he expected.
This opportunity is such a hard-won, difficult and difficult, smooth and smooth.
Shang Xiaorui, who witnessed everything by the side, was so excited that she was about to cry. She covered her mouth to avoid disturbing them, but because she held her breath for too long, opening her mouth was a loud "hiccup"!
Ikeda: "… "
Tan Yiming: "…"
The female professor finally showed a smile and turned to leave.
…
Getting a recommendation letter from Miranda Ikeda is just the first step. After a long wait of half a month, in April, Tan Yiming finally received a call from the hr of Rainstorm Company, informing him that he had passed the preliminary examination, and the interview time will be notified separately.
After getting the good news, Tan Yiming immediately shared the incident with his friends.
In addition to George and Shang Xiaorui, he also told his friends online about the incident.
The second child is very happy for him, and now he starts shouting "Go for wealth, don't forget each other".
Tan Yiming didn't forget the little swan—if it wasn't for that episode of catching the moon in the water, Tan Yiming wouldn't have figured out what he wanted, and he wouldn't have used it to impress Professor Ikeda.
Bright Cloud: Guess, do you remember what I mentioned to you before
Yi Ming Qing Yun: I received the interview notice, and I am finally one step closer to the moon.
guess:! ! !
guess: Congratulations to Yunda! !
guess: When you fly to the moon, be sure to tell me if the moon is good for ducks.
Yi Ming Qing Yun: When I fly to the moon, I will definitely invite Gu Guai to be a guest on the moon.
guess: [shy goose].jpg
I don't know if it was Xiang Gu's misunderstanding, but he always felt that God Wang Qingyun seemed to be teasing him.
He shares his life with him, he lets him know about his work... Xiang Chai has a Wang Qingyun that no other fans know about, and is proud of it.
But he read a poisonous chicken soup on the Internet, saying that the most common delusion in the world is "he likes me too".
Xiang Guai guarded this little bit of ambiguity cautiously and carefully, wandering and probing the boundary line. He sometimes thinks that he should be brave and speak his mind, but sometimes he thinks that Wang Qingyun has no reason to like him, after all, he is a "little boy" and he has made up so many lies.
Of course, Tan Yiming was not clear about his preoccupation with gains and losses.
In Tan Yiming's eyes, Guess on the other side of the airwaves is a good friend, better than other friends... but that's all.
Tan Yiming has heard the cry of Guess and was encouraged by Guess - these things left traces in Tan Yiming's heart, but the traces are too shallow, like an inconspicuous chapter in a novel, it does exist, But it wasn't deep enough to make him miss him.
Yiming Qingyun: By the way, did the "Little Prince" paper I passed to you last time help you
guess: [goose nods].jpg
guess: helpful! Especially helpful!
guess: I'm already working on my homework, and it will be done soon!
guess: Thank you cloud sama! !
-Pooh!
Xiang guess lied again.
There is really no one more hypocritical than him in this world.
Tan Yiming passed the final thesis he wrote in his undergraduate years to him for him to learn from. But it wasn't until Xiang Guai received the paper that he found out that the paper was actually written in English! !
The original book of "The Little Prince" is in French, so Wang Qingyun's thesis will also contain some original words.
Xiang Guess understands where he can understand it. When he opens it, he becomes dizzy. When he sees it twice, the sky collapses. When he sees it three times, he can't bear the weight of knowledge, so close it as soon as possible!
Xiang Chai became more and more aware of the gap between himself and the male god - the male god is a glittering university tyrant, and he is a scumbag who can't even read the Chinese translation.
His shameful vanity emerged again, and he would never admit his failure in front of the male god.
But homework must be handed in after all.
Xiang Chai, Qi Ji, and Chen Ziran made an appointment to go to the school library to fight on weekends.
Qi Ji and Chen Ziran didn't know where to download a research paper on "The Little Prince". They made an appointment to copy the front and the tail alone. They also decided to leave the middle to Xiang Guai.
Xiang Guai: "…Thank you, no need."
He's a good boy, and he really has the guts to copy homework.
Qi Ji and Chen Ziran copied their homework by the side, put on headphones to Guai, and watched the musical "The Little Prince" again.
He jumped to the encounter between the little prince and the fox, which he felt was the most romantic and saddest part of the entire musical.
The fox taught the little prince what is unique, what is ritual, and how to see something with the heart instead of the eyes.
It also taught the little prince what an Apprivoiser is.
There are subtle differences in this word in different translations. tame, tame, tame...
It is not the obedience of the subordinate to the superior, but the attachment and dependence of the fox to the little prince.
The lingering and gentle "Apprivoisemoi" reverberated in his ears, Xiang guessed, had he been tamed by Wang Qingyun unknowingly
Every time he sees the list of dubbing actors at the end of the TV series, he will feel proud; he will read about the United States and New York in English books, he will love Wu and Wu; even now, he will endure it when he eats boiled poached eggs Keep poking open the yolk to let it run down...
These once meaningless things suddenly became meaningful because of Wang Qingyun.
Xiang guessed that if this was considered "domestication", then he must have been successfully domesticated by that man.
However, Wang Qingyun did not know about this one-sided domestication.
Xiang Guai picked up the pen and wrote down the fox's line in his paper.
"Never forget," he read as he wrote, "that you are always responsible for what you tame."
He thought, what kind of mood did the fox say this with? After all, although the little prince domesticated it, he eventually left it.
…
Today's Xiang Guai still didn't understand the little prince.
However, he understood the fox.
The author has something to say: Soon, Xiang Gu will soon understand the little prince.
The day he read the little prince, it was time to part.
