"Xia Xingchen! It's your turn to play, what are you waiting for?"

The field manager wore dirty sneakers, held a script in his hand, and shouted at Xia Xingchen with a loudspeaker.

"Here we come!" A delicate-looking boy with a bright smile got up from a group of extras. He patted the dirt on his buttocks and trotted to the stage manager.

"I can tell you that this character may have a line in the finished film in the future. I worked hard to get it for you. When you are filming later, if you dare to improvise and ask the director, I will beat you to death! "

Xia Xingchen's beautiful eyes slightly curved, glowing charmingly.He took out a pack of cigarettes and handed it to the field manager, and said with an apologetic smile, "Brother Li, I don't call it asking, but discussing acting skills with the director."

"Bah! Actors with a one-second role need acting skills?" The stage manager rolled his eyes, covered the scorching sun with the script in his hand, and said angrily, "Hurry up and go to filming!"

"Right away!" Xia Xingchen tidied up his clothes, pondered over his lines for a while, and prepared to shoot.

The scene manager was smoking a cigarette, looked at Xia Xingchen, who was serious about filming under the camera, and sighed, "Oh, how did you get such a face and beauty?"

"Hello, New Oriental Training School, let me know?"

Xia Xingchen's one-second role this time was the intern distributing the flyers. He tried his best to show his eight white teeth, his beautiful lips slightly raised, and handed over the flyers courteously to the heroine.

"Card."

The director waved his hand to signal the end of the scene.

The assistants of the major celebrities saw the gestures, and hurried forward to hold an umbrella to pass water to their ancestors. Xia Xingchen was used to this scene, he used his hands to block the ultraviolet rays, hid in a corner, and gulped. With the half bottle of water left before.

As of today, Xia Xingchen has been in the showbiz for two full years.

He thought that from a dead body on the battlefield to a passer-by who had a close-up scene for a second, he must have made some progress.

Picking up a page of his "script", Xia Xingchen fanned it casually, and a gust of wind blew in, causing his crooked eyes to narrow comfortably.

Since he was expelled from the British film school of St. Lumbia a few years ago, he has changed a lot and has become more and more satisfied. Some small things in life will make him happy.

My parents died, and I was expelled from my dream university. What should I do?

"Isn't the weather too hot? How can I wear such a thick costume?"

The boy talking not far away is the second male lead of the movie, Li Changqing, a newcomer who just graduated from the Film Academy this year.It is said that the talent is extremely high, and the director has a keen eye for pearls. When choosing a role, he fell in love with him at a glance.

Li Changqing hid under the assistant's parasol, with a little impatience on his face, waiting for the field manager to call him on stage.

"Fuck, why is it him?" When Xia Xingchen saw the face clearly, he quickly covered himself with the script and wanted to leave secretly, but this sneaky action caught Li Changqing's attention.

"Wait, you are..." Li Changqing walked forward slowly, and when he saw that familiar face, he exclaimed, "You are Xia Xingchen?"

"Yes, yes." Xia Xingchen carried the script behind his back, and said with a half-hearted smile, "Long time no see, old classmate."

Li Changqing glanced meaningfully at the script behind Xia Xingchen you asked for, and said eccentrically, "Unexpectedly, Master Xia still remembers me? I heard that you were admitted to a British film school four years ago. Is it Golden Globe Best Actor?"

Xia Xingchen ignored the other party's sarcasm. In the past, he might have been embarrassed when faced with the other party's aggressiveness, and he was too anxious to speak, but now he can't at all.

The biggest skill he has learned in the past few years is thick skin.

"Isn't my talent bad? But when you win the Golden Globe Best Actor Award, you must announce the good news to me, and my old classmate will also be honored."

After finishing speaking, Xia Xingchen smiled slyly, took the script and waved his hand to leave.

Seeing Li Changqing's uneasy expression, the assistant asked cautiously, "Changqing, who is he?"

Li Changqing smiled disdainfully: "My school grassroots in high school, the super rich second-generation heartthrob in the school, the three teaching buildings and the auditorium in our school were all donated by his family."

The assistant rubbed his chin, recalling the man's clothes just now, "He looks pretty good, but he doesn't look like a rich second generation?"

"Later I heard that his family went bankrupt." Li Changqing raised his eyebrows, suddenly feeling elated.

The young master who used to be all-powerful in school, but now he is so downcast that he is an extra performer in the film crew?This is really big news.

Li Changqing clicked on the high school wechat group, moved his fingertips slightly, and curled his lips to post today's events to the group.

"Snapped!"

A bag of garbage suddenly fell upstairs, Xia Xingchen patted his chest, complaining in his heart that this person is really uncivilized, does he know about garbage sorting?

Stepping on the dilapidated limestone stairs, Xia Xingchen hummed a little tune and opened his den.

An old-fashioned residential building with one bedroom and one living room.

This dilapidated house was the only property given to him by his gang of wolf-hearted relatives.

But the future may not belong to him.

His grandfather needs a lot of surgery fees in the hospital recently, and may need to sell the house to get the money together.

Xia Xingchen skillfully turned on the gas stove, cooked a bowl of noodles for himself, and then devoured it.

Looking at the neat family portraits in the living room, Xia Xingchen suddenly raised his head and rubbed the corners of his eyes. He is no longer the young master who was doted on by thousands of people.

After taking a bath, Xia Xingchen lay on his little bed and flipped through various extras, looking for tomorrow's work.

There was no other way, the brokerage company blocked him and refused to accept his job. In order to make a living, Xia Xingchen had no choice but to play tricks.

To say why he was blocked by the company, we have to start from the first month when he just signed with the company.

Even though he was expelled from school at that time, relying on his good skin, he still easily signed a contract with a film and television company.Who would have thought that this small workshop was actually a pimp!

His first job was to drink with a real estate boss.The man was greasy and bald, and started to move his hands and feet as soon as he had a drink.

At that time Xia Xingchen was very innocent, seeing that plump lips were about to touch him, he swiped the wine bottle, opened it up and sent him to the hospital.

Since then, he has been hidden by the company.

"I'll be free in three years." Xia Xingchen put down his phone, put his hands under his head, and stared at the ceiling in a daze.

Meeting Li Changqing today reminded him of high school and that person again.

"He should be very successful now, right?" Xia Xingchen said to himself.

He still remembered that he had seen that person in an American financial magazine two years ago.His appearance has not changed much from high school, but he has faded from his youthfulness and become mature and confident.

Successful men are the most attractive.But in those eyes, Xia Xingchen read a trace of stubbornness and loneliness.

"I don't want him anymore, go to sleep."
