Great rival system

Chu Qianru is a college student of an art college in the city. As an art student, she has a youthful taste in her bones. She usually loves watching movies and TV dramas. Unfortunately, because of her unremarkable appearance, she gave up her desire to be a The idea of ​​an actor, but she always has an artistic dream in her heart, even if she can't be on the big screen, she still wants to participate in this industry.

Just before the summer vacation, the school released a notice about the "National Undergraduate Microfilm Creation Competition", which made Chu Qianru, who was still in her sophomore year, eager to try it. The bonus was not too much, and the first prize was only tens of thousands, which made her feel excited The most important thing is the opportunity to compete with college students across the country.

To this end, she specially formed a small team, and found a few colleagues from the Photography Association in the courtyard to be responsible for lighting and shooting, alumni from the Computer Association were responsible for the post-editing of the film, screenwriters were responsible for writing the script, and those from the Acting Department were responsible for appearances. , and even recruited her roommate as an assistant, she was in charge of directing and coordinating, and the total number of participants was twelve.

This competition stipulates that the duration of the works should not exceed 10 minutes. First, the shortlisted works will be determined by online voting on the official website, and finally the award-winning works will be selected by the jury.

There are two full months of preparation time for the summer vacation. After confirming the theme, the pre-planning and script writing will start in July, and 10-15 days will be reserved for the post-production work. However, the shooting work in the middle really makes them feel a little troubled.

The theme of the microfilm they selected this time is of a public welfare nature, and the purpose is to encourage people in the city not to abandon their pets at will, causing the problem of stray cats and dogs having nowhere to live.

Small animals are cute after washing, not to mention girls, even boys can't resist this charm, but small animals are not as easy to command as human beings, most of the animals that look very spiritual in movies and TV dramas They have been domesticated by professional organizations, but now they don't have such conditions. They can only lure them with food step by step, and slowly edit out the desired effect.

The continuous emergencies made Chu Qianru feel overwhelmed, but today, a more serious situation happened.

"What? Mengmeng said she was hospitalized with a stomachache?!"

Chu Qianru was in charge of the overall shooting progress of the film, and her eyes were dizzy when she heard the news.

Mengmeng is the actor she is looking for. Although this is a micro movie with animals as the protagonist, in order to reflect the relationship between humans and animals, someone must participate in the production.

Mengmeng belongs to the kind of girl who is very beautiful and delicate. She has a pointed face and is very photogenic. What's more rare is that she has some acting skills and good body language. There are no lines in the whole drama, only the sounds of animals and The background sound, so the role of the master must be able to clearly understand the emotions contained in it without saying a word.

"How about—Xinxin, come on?"

After all, everyone had been preparing for so long, and Chu Qianru didn't want to give up halfway, and instead lobbied for her roommate who was going to be an assistant.

"I...I can't—" Xinxin quickly waved her hands, "I was trembling with fright as soon as I stood in front of the camera, I was so nervous, I must not be able to shoot well."

"Then—Brother Qiang, you go up." Chu Qianru turned to look at a strong male classmate next to him, and Brother Qiang immediately froze, "Don't mind me, my face turns into a cake when I get on camera, How ugly, will the judges be scared to death when they see it?"

A group of people couldn't help laughing, but Chu Qianru was very worried. Is it really going to give up halfway this time?

Although they are students of the Academy of Art, they are not so versatile. None of them present have any performance experience.

"Let's shoot the marshmallow scene first today."

The roommate comforted Chu Qianru, Marshmallow is a big white dog with fluffy fur, and it is also the protagonist of this film. In just a few minutes, he will get along with the owner warmly. A homeless stray dog. During the wandering process, Marshmallow met a companion who suffered the same as it. He also experienced being trampled on by passers-by at random, almost being tortured and killed, and even seriously ill. After a long period of wandering After dying, he was finally seen by the owner who happened to come back to work and passed by. He died when he was sent to the ambulance station. The owner began to recall the happy time spent with cotton candy, and finally shed tears of regret...

You will experience many friends in your life, but only you in its life.

The theme is beautiful, and Chu Qianru even felt narcissistically that some viewers would shed tears after seeing the finished video, but unfortunately, the plan has been completely disrupted now.

Hey... Where can I find an actor whose acting skills are as good as Mengmeng's? She is not very familiar with the people in the acting department, let alone finding one temporarily now, it will take time for the whole team to work together...

"what!"

The roommate next to her suddenly screamed, and Chu Qianru woke up, "What's wrong?"

"Ji...Ji Yin!?"

Sheyou seemed to have gone mad suddenly, one finger pointed forward and kept shaking, Chu Qianru followed her gaze, "Huh? Little handsome guy, are you crazy?"

"No...not..." Sherma seemed to be stammering suddenly, and showed her the wallpaper of her mobile phone, "Does that person over there look like the one on my mobile phone, doesn't it look exactly the same? "

"Well, it's exactly the same." Chu Qianru suddenly realized, "Wow, star, why don't you hurry up and ask for your autograph?"

The roommate suddenly gasped and said, "Then when I go to sign in the past, can I ask him by the way, can he consider taking a picture of us?"

"What are you thinking, you silly girl?" Chu Qianru spread her hands helplessly, "Nowadays, the salaries of celebrities are too expensive, we can't afford them."

"Oh." The roommate drooped his head in frustration, and after a few seconds, he immediately cheered up and rushed over like a fan girl.

……

[Host, friendly reminder, at your nine o'clock position, an unknown human being with a frenzy is attacking you, please be prepared for defense! 】ah?

Holding the cat in her hands, Ji Yin turned around in the direction guided by the system.

"Huh~" The girl stopped, holding a pen and paper in her right hand, her eyes glowing with excitement, "You are Ji Yin, right? I'm glad to meet you here, can you sign me?"

fan?

Due to the shadow of the pseudo-mother last time, Ji Yin didn't get used to it for a while, and then nodded in a daze after a while, "Yes."

Wow, he talked to me, talked to me...

The girl was full of fantasies about being a fan of her younger sister, and while signing the autograph, she took a close look at Ji Yin's face.

The face is so small, as expected, an actor must have a small face if he wants to be on camera...

The skin is also good, is it plain...?

When the eyelashes are hanging down, they are also curled up, and they look more delicate than Mengmeng...

Beautiful...beautiful hand, I really want to lick it...

"That...what's your name?"

Ji Yin raised her head and asked her, the girl almost wanted to cover her heart, "I...my name is Ji Qiu."

"It's finished." Ji Yin handed her the autograph, which was different from the cool autographs of other superstars. On the notebook, "To Ji Qiu" was neatly written, and today's date was also stamped on it.

I'm so happy, I really want to stay a little longer...

Ji Qiu took back his notebook slowly, and suddenly said clumsily, "Actually, my classmates and I came here today to make a micro movie."

Ji Yin was stunned. Although he had never made this type of film, he had also browsed some creative representative works on the Internet. Starting from micro-movies, he took advantage of the high popularity and excellent selection of materials to remake and move to There are also examples on the big screen.

In this world, it is impossible for everyone to get enough sponsorship funds, but there are not a few artists who have movie dreams in their hearts. This kind of lower-cost movies opens a window for them to express their dreams.

"Oh, it's great to make a movie, what kind?" Ji Yin asked casually, and Ji Qiu took a deep breath: "It's a public welfare micro-film about the protection of stray animals. We will participate in the national competition in September. If the award wins, the official If publicity can be noticed by more people, I hope that such situations will become less in the future.”

It turns out that they came here these days to shoot this kind of stuff...

Shu Lan's gaze couldn't help but warm up a little. In fact, he was not happy to see these students using the small animals here as props a while ago.

In this materialistic society, human beings tend to be profit-seeking. There are too few people who are truly enthusiastic about public welfare compared to the success that is constantly sold in the market to teach you how to be the richest man, and the commercial popcorn movies in the theater.

[Ding~ Congratulations to the host for inadvertently triggering the task of 'Love Sprinkles the World'. According to the system's prediction, completing this task can increase the energy value of No. 4 Shulan, the target of the raid, by [-]%] What?

"However, today we were looking for a good actor, but he was hospitalized because of illness." Ji Qiu's eyes suddenly turned red, "It's August now, and there will be more than ten days for post-production. If we can't find an actor , we won’t be able to compete in September.”

A chain of reasoning suddenly popped up in Ji Yin's mind——Shu Lan loves small animals——If I made a microfilm about loving small animals——Shu Lan would feel very relieved, as soon as he was relieved, positive energy came—— When the positive energy comes, I don't have to die...

It's a plan! Is there anything!

But wait, wouldn't it be weird for an actor who's been on the big screen to suddenly make amateur microfilms about college students?

[Host, in the civilization of the earth, people who are enthusiastic about public welfare generally get positive comments from the society. This is also an opportunity for you to create a positive image and get rid of the hot chicken vase artist. ] "It's okay, I'll take pictures!" Ji Yin suddenly said excitedly: "I like small animals the most!"

A trace of inconceivable emotion flashed across Shu Lan's face.

Isn't this vase supposed to be a coquettish slut who worships money?Why did she suddenly transform into a Madonna, the character design collapsed, hey!

Ji Qiu opened his mouth as if he had eaten an egg, and after a while, he cheered and ran towards his roommate, "Qianqian, I succeeded, I succeeded, hahaha..."

……

……

"What, zero pay for acting? Are you crazy?!"

When the manager heard what Ji Yin said, his eyes almost fell out, "No...I'm not saying that it's bad to support public welfare, but you see, apart from those amateurs who are not well-known, the public welfare shoots are all big-name celebrities. With a positive image, you are still on the rise, even if you shoot it, how many people will notice it, so we must first spend time on things that can produce more results."

Ji Yin lay lazily on the table, "But my movie scene has already been finished, and they didn't take me long. The finished product is only a few minutes, how many days can I shoot?"

"..." The agent sat next to him sullenly, and Ji Yin comforted him, "I heard that the judges this year are quite authoritative, if their works can win awards, wouldn't I also create a positive image? Well, when I become popular in the future, people will look up the works I have starred in before and praise me as a positive energy idol."

But... zero pay... time is money...

The manager's heart seemed to be bleeding, and Ji Yin suddenly stood up and stretched, "I'm not the Holy Mother, if they want me to film for a year or feed mosquitoes in the deep mountains and old forests, then I will definitely not do it, but It's not very exhausting... I know the first priority is to make money, but humans also need to do things that are good for the world every now and then—”

"As far as this is concerned..." Ji Yin walked around to the agent, pinching his cheeks with both hands, "In terms of ideological awareness, you are not good enough, uncle."

……

Movies are a visual form of expression, so even if it is a micro movie, the choice of actors is also particular. For the tear gas film that Chu Qianru and the others are going to shoot, in order to increase the rendering power, you can't ask a vicious person to perform. Children and animals are a perfect match. The girl who wrote the script originally conceived a child version and an adult version of the master role. Unfortunately, it is even more difficult for children to perform, so they finally decided after discussion that the role of the master must be One that can make the audience feel good and has a certain performance foundation.

The whole film focuses on Marshmallow, which is the well-deserved first protagonist. He once experienced a warm life as a pet, and then wandered behind and was cruelly treated by humans, but he still looked at it faithfully before he died. Owner.

The role of the owner is mainly concentrated in two parts, the first part is the happy time of frolicking with the pet, the turning point is the contradiction when he hesitated but finally abandoned when moving, the second part is the tears of regret before parting with the former pet dog .

Playing with marshmallows is not very difficult. Ji Yin naturally has an incredible relationship with animals, and after a period of contact, he quickly played with marshmallows.

And at this stage, he doesn't need to show his whole face, even when he abandons, his hesitant steps, clenched fists, these detailed close-ups can be very sensational after being properly edited and accompanied by background music. Effect.

"I...I really want to lick Yinyin's beautiful hand..."

Ji Qiu glanced at the recorded video, and said nympho: "But when I think about him being younger than me, I feel like a perverted big sister TVT"

"It's good that you know you're a pervert." Chu Qianru decided to stay away from her, "But it's really strange, why those little animals would surround Ji Yin as soon as they saw Ji Yin, and they didn't seem to be afraid of life at all. When we came here before Occasionally it will kill us."

"...Maybe it's because he looks too unthreatening."

Since the team is not professional, and the film is short, the shooting progressed very quickly, and the final part was shot within a few days.

This is also Ji Yin's first appearance in the film. At the end, because he remembered the happy time with his pet dog, and compared the fact that the pet dog died in his arms, all kinds of remorse and despair are intertwined, which is the most sensational scene.

Ji Yin is very good at crying scenes, but his crying is superficial, thus creating a very cheating situation——

[The host's performance this time is unqualified! 】

"Damn it, it's still not working." Ji Yin sat back on the sofa paralyzed, "I said that there is something wrong with the detection mechanism of your system. Look, my eyes are swollen from crying."

The last crying scene is the essence of his role in the film, so before the filming started, he secretly practiced at his home in order to avoid being questioned by those amateur college students about his professional level.

But... there is really no motivation. He has never had a pet before. Although he thinks it is cute, he will even be moved to cry when he sees some people pet tearjerkers, but it is always awkward for him to act out that kind of real emotion by himself.

[Friendly reminder, some humans regard pets as their own family members. The host may wish to imagine the scene of the death of a loved one to brew emotions. 】Is the scene where a loved one dies in front of you?

When he was ten years old, he was traveling in the same car with his brother and sister-in-law. When he encountered an accident on the road, he felt as if his head exploded suddenly, his body was tightly protected, and the blood of an adult man dripped on his cheek...

Ji Yin's eye sockets suddenly turned red.

[Host, congratulations, you have passed the performance. 】

……

"Great, the filming is all done."

Several college students were as happy as if they had suddenly won [-]. This was their first work. Although they paid money in halfway through, and didn't go out to play during the summer vacation, it took a lot of time and energy, but it was just a short period of time. A few minutes of work means a lot to them.

Voting for the finalists is held on the official website, and each IP is limited to one vote. In order to be shortlisted from the many domestic entries, the contestants have tried their best to use all the publicity channels, such as Weibo, forums, post bars, Video sites have been bombed in turn.

Ji Yin also reposted it. After all, he is a starlet, unlike college students who have not yet come out of the art academy, and immediately attracted the attention of fans.

He said, I am not the main character, but marshmallows are.

In the finished video, the audience can only see a blurred figure playing with the dog at first, and the background music is playful and cheerful, which makes people want to whistle along.

The dog is well-behaved, sensible, and obedient. It has beautiful white hair and is as fluffy as the marshmallows it ate on the side of the road when I was a child. It will play catch with the owner and help bite things when the owner is inconvenient. Send it over with short legs, and will silently accompany the master when the master is sad.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. The owner received a call and started to tidy up the room, dragging away a suitcase.

As usual, Marshmallow wanted to go out with the owner. The owner pointed his index finger to the other side. Marshmallow tilted his head in confusion. The owner had already left in the car.

One day, two days, Marshmallow waited for its owner near the house for a whole week. When it was hungry, it went to the garbage dump to find food. Whenever someone passed by, no matter how late, it would stand up energetically and wag its tail in front of it. .

Gradually, it became a very dirty and dirty dog. Even the sanitation workers who sweep the streets disliked it. They drove it away with a big broom. After eating dirt on the road, I got a disease, and my eyes were as if half-blindfolded.

On the way of wandering, it met many companions who suffered the same as it did. Some of them were missing an ear, some were lame, and some even lost their teeth. They are all dirty, and they will be disgusted by humans no matter where they go.

Marshmallow's body is getting weaker and weaker. At the end of its life, it suddenly remembered the warm time it had spent before, and found its way home by following its memory and sense of taste.

Home... just ahead, Marshmallow struggled a bit, but still fell down. A pair of familiar shoes suddenly appeared in its sight, and they belonged to the owner!Marshmallow suddenly wagged its tail weakly, and the dilapidated body that had traveled a long distance was gently picked up and sent to the ambulance station.

It's a pity that it's too late, Marshmallow finally struggled to take a jumping pose, which happened to be the catch game action that he liked to play with his master in the past.

The close-up of the camera captured the owner's face. He was too young, he looked no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, and tears of regret fell silently in his beautiful eyes.

Its world only has you, please be kind to every life that has brought you happiness.

Before throwing them away, think about all that will happen to them later.

……

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ow ols"

"My mother sold the family dog ​​because she was pregnant, and now I don't know how it is doing..."

"This was shot on the spot. It's really pitiful to see them. I suddenly want to be a volunteer to rescue stray animals..."

However, there were also Heizi who said that Ji Yin was purely for show, but they were immediately sprayed back: "Whether it is for show or true love, as long as you can make practical actions, it is much better than those keyboard warriors who only know about blind BB!"

In September, Chu Qianru’s team was shortlisted in the voting on the official website. On the day of the award, Chu Qianru went up to accept the award as a representative and said excitedly, “Although I only won the second prize due to lack of skills, I will continue to work hard! I would like to thank my team and instructors, and I would also like to thank Ji Yin who starred in the film. He is a very caring and aura actor. If I become a big director in the future, I will definitely choose him as the leading role—hey, hey, you guys Don't rush me down, I haven't finished talking—!"

……

[Strategy goal No. 4, Shu Lan's positive energy value increased by 2%, because the host completed the side mission "Heart of the Team" and was highly recognized by Chu Qianru's team members. In other words, it is what you humans call the power of faith , the positive energy value increased again by [-]%] "Oh..." Ji Yin bit his gum and looked down at his bag, "I'm going to the wrap-up banquet tonight, what clothes should I wear?"

[...It's none of my business. 】

"Fuck, your system is too unintelligent. You can't chat or give advice. It's only useful when attacking targets. It's made by aliens. In the end, you don't even have any rewards to exchange. Look at how many systems there are in their online novels. Cool, it can be exchanged for Super Saiyan blood..."

【...The other party didn't want to talk to you and threw a look of contempt at you. 】

"Forget it, I'm going to dress casually, anyway, I look handsome no matter what I wear."

Ji Yin's role has been completed long ago. After the filming cycle of the public welfare micro-movie, the roles of all the actors in the crew were officially completed.

What a relief.

The wrap-up banquet was held in a high-end restaurant, Ji Yin was fully armed, and when it came to the banquet, most of the people were there.

The nasty person is sitting next door.

Ji Yin shrank to the right, and the actress Miao Man who had bullied him raised her eyebrows with interest, "My child, I heard that you are very promising recently..."

Just ignore her.

Ji Yin searched for Zhong Jingsheng, and found him sitting next to the director, being coaxed by the people next to him to drink.

It seems that being a big star also has the disadvantages of being a big star, and it is easy to be targeted by others.

Thinking of this, Ji Yin drank the wine in small sips, but her face turned red involuntarily.

"You can't drink so little?" Miaoman raised her eyebrows in surprise, "Hey, why are you going back later, didn't the assistant come with you?"

"Wait... he'll be there when I finish drinking." Ji Yin stammered, and suddenly fell on the table with a "slap".

The voice was very soft, and it was difficult to be noticed among the group of people who were drunk. Miaoman felt a little pity, and said to her assistant: "He is too young, and accidents are easy to happen. How about you first Take him to the side to sober up, and send him back when he is less confused."

"Sister Man, you are so kind." The assistant carried Ji Yin out and put him on the rest chair while boasting, "Xiao Ji, do you want to vomit?"

"I don't want to..." Ji Yinjiu got up, remembering that he was Miaoman's assistant, and suddenly pushed him away, "I hate you."

"Why do you hate me?" The assistant thought he was drunk and was about to shake his hand when a voice came from behind, "What's wrong?"

"Oh, brother Zhong, this kid is drunk."

"Drunk?" Zhong Jingsheng looked down and saw that Ji Yin's face was dyed like peach petals, he went over to hug him worriedly, "Xiao Ji?"

"Huh?" Ji Yin raised his eyelids, saw that it was Zhong Jingsheng, and hugged him tightly, "Brother Jingsheng."

Zhong Jingsheng already felt that the wine was hot, but being hugged by him was even hotter, and his voice couldn't help but sink, "May I take you home?"
