Founded in 1954, Beijing Dance Academy is the only specialized dance education institution in China, and is also the world's largest and most comprehensive dance school, known as the "cradle of dancers". Tonight, Beijing Satellite TV's "Dear Younger Brothers and Sisters" will enter the Beijing Dance Academy, inviting Zhang Xiaolong, the senior of the 1994 Chinese Ethnic and Folk Dance Department, Wang Likun, the 2000 Chinese Ethnic and Folk Dance Department, and Meng Qingyang, the 2008 Chinese classical dance performance major, to start a "one-day trip" to their alma mater, and regain the unforgettable memories of their college days in the practice room, rehearsal room, canteen, dormitory and other places that were once very familiar. What kind of itinerary have the younger students arranged for them? What kind of gains will they have after many years of absence? At 21:30 today, Beijing Satellite TV's "Dear Younger Brothers and Sisters" went to a youth appointment in the name of dance.
Zhang Xiaolong
Wang Likun and Meng Qingyang entered the school in a major public and learned basic skills with their younger students
The first stop of the seniors came to the practice room. There, they met an "old acquaintance", that is, Hui Tong, member of the Party Committee and vice president of the Beijing Dance Academy. He is Zhang Xiaolong's senior brother and Wang Likun's four-year class teacher at university. But what they didn't expect was that the first thing they did when they reunited with their old friends was to report their weight. According to the memories of the seniors, Zhang Xiaolong weighed about 109 pounds when he entered school, Wang Likun was about 90 pounds, and Meng Qingyang vaguely remembered that it was 92 pounds. In order to "check" their weight management after leaving school for many years, Dean Huitong prepared a scale for them, and Zhang Xiaolong, Wang Likun, and Meng Qingyang will weigh them in front of everyone. How has their weight changed compared to more than a decade ago?
After reporting the weight, Dean Huitong also arranged a basic skills test for the seniors. In the process, they will form a group to PK with the younger students and sisters, and accept the investigation of basic skills such as point flipping, control, and whip turning. But as Zhang Xiaolong said, "If you don't practice for a day, you know, and if you don't practice for a month, the audience knows." "The seniors have been away from campus for many years, and the basic skills of dance are naturally a little rusty. In the show, they inevitably complained when they completed these actions. "I'm sorry teacher, I gave you a lot of stuff back. Wang Likun sighed. In the end, how did the seniors perform in the PK, and what kind of evaluation would the teachers give?
Meng Qingyang
Zhang Xiaolongshen restores "Amazing Dance", Meng Qingyang teaches "Green Waist" on the spot
When it comes to Zhang Xiaolong, most people's impression of him is the affectionate Wen Shichu in "The Legend of Zhen Huan". But what everyone doesn't know is that Zhen Huan's amazing "Amazing Dance" in the play was actually created and rehearsed by Zhang Xiaolong. In the program, the seniors and their entourage came to the rehearsal room of classical Chinese dance, where Zhang Xiaolong and Meng Qingyang teamed up to create a green version of "Amazing Dance". After many years, this classic water sleeve dance will be restored again, what amazing performance will the seniors bring to everyone?
Chen Ming
When they come to the Chinese classical dance rehearsal room, the audience will naturally think of the original dance drama "Only This Green" starring Meng Qingyang. On Chinese New Year's Eve 2022, "Only This Green" appeared on the Spring Festival Gala of the Central Radio and Television Station, and a touch of green amazed the audience and became a phenomenal hit. This time Meng Qingyang returned to his alma mater, and the younger students naturally would not let go of this opportunity to seek teaching. Meng Qingyang taught hand-in-hand, and performed the "green waist" that was popular all over the Internet. "They can lie there and sleep, I feel. Chen Ming couldn't help but sigh.

The question of "confession bureau" is sharp and realistic, and Wang Likun faces age anxiety
At the end of the "Confession Bureau" of the program, Zhang Xiaolong, Wang Likun, Meng Qingyang, and Zhao Peng, founder, chairman and CEO of BOSS Zhipin, sat in a circle with the younger students to share their experiences and insights in the workplace for many years, and to guide them with the experience of those who have come before.
In the quick question and answer session, Wang Likun faced age anxiety very generously. "Being old is being old, and you have to accept the process. Now that I'm an actor, I can have different roles to experience at different ages, and I think it's also a very happy thing. Don't force it, just let it be. Wang Likun's words may give great psychological comfort to dance students who are also likely to face age anxiety.
Zhao Peng
In the face of increasing employment pressure, the juniors came with questions, and the seniors also put themselves in their shoes and answered sincerely. "How to break the stereotype of dance students from others?", "Should I go to the interview crew early, or focus on my studies?", "Should I choose what I like, or is it more promising?", "Should I be a 'little transparent' in a first-line theater troupe or go to a local theater troupe to be the protagonist C position?" In the face of these seemingly sharp but very practical questions, how will the seniors answer?
At 21:30 today, Beijing Satellite TV's "Dear Younger Brothers and Sisters" walked into the Beijing Dance Academy together to feel the youth of dancing with their hearts.
