from the star

Ling Qingyuan went back to the apartment and fell asleep. The next evening, two roommates came back and found him lying on the bed like a dead pig, and the room was full of alcohol.

"It should be for a drink, Hebai is also very hardworking..." Yuan Xin went to a mirror today, and the possibility of being recorded is very high.As I said before, it doesn't matter if you fail on the show. If you accumulate experience and climb up slowly, all roads will not be blocked.

"Turn on the computer, it's time to broadcast "The Age of Stars." Zou Wenyu swiped to the video, and the first thing he clicked was the comment section.It happened to be the part where Tan Yue and Su Qinxin were dancing. Some Tan fans complained that Su Qinxin was too tight, her movements were too coquettish and her eyes were too seductive, and her steps went directly to his legs.

There is a comment with the user name "Look at my male god Weiwei Kunlun", and wrote two sentences neatly: Mount Tai collapses in front of him without changing his color, and beauty - seduces him without being tempted.

Some Su fans jumped out and said that Tan Yue's brain-dead fans don't understand art, and tango is hot and flamboyant. Compared with Su Qinxin's perfect dancing posture, Tan Yue is just a lump of wood.

During the dance break, there was a flash scene with two accompanists, Cheng Hebai and Xing Yuntao.For their comments, the next row is in formation: together.Violin with piano, Yuntao with Hebai, heroic and fresh, it's totally a matter of fate.

Zou Wenyu pushed aside Cheng Hebai's buried pillow to admire the face of the quiet and handsome man who was commented by the audience as slightly melancholy. "Maybe it would be better if he was awake," he muttered, about to comment.

"I'm awake." Ling Qingyuan reached out and grabbed the corner of Zou Wenyu's clothes, telling him not to disturb the water.

Zou Wenyu opened his fingers: "Why are you silent when you are awake?"

Ling Qingyuan yawned and sat up, complaining that he was too tired to move.Zou Wenyu asked him if he had entered the final round, and he replied wonderingly: "I did, didn't I tell you?"

"You didn't give me a dream." Zou Wenyu replied unkindly, he glanced at Yuan Xin out of the corner of his eye, and restrained himself a little.Yuan Xin is very generous: "Don't guess it must be the four of you."

Zou Wenyu shrugged: "So what was it yesterday, the celebration wine for a small gathering in advance?"

"Stay there. I'm going to drive." Ling Qingyuan shouted.He turned over and got off the bed and walked to the bathroom, looking at Cheng Hebai's face in the mirror, and took a few deep breaths.

That's right.He is the 24-year-old Cheng Hebai who has just tasted the sweetness of fame. He shouldn't be so seasoned, and he can't be so experienced.An inexperienced young man in his twenties is the time to be motivated and eager to succeed.Last night, more than once, he had a kind of identity confusion, especially when facing Tan Yue, he would not know who he was.Up to now, he still vaguely felt Tan Yue's gaze covering him, and wanted to find out, but he was hesitant to move forward.

For the first time, he reflected on whether he was not quite like Cheng Hebai.The "talent" he unintentionally displayed is already too eye-catching, not only Shao Weiming, but even Tan Yue...

Ling Qingyuan tried to speculate that Tan Yue's obsession with his films might surpass the audience's liking for a certain type of work... Ling Qingyuan turned on the faucet and splashed a handful of water on his face, deciding not to continue thinking about it.What he needs to do now is to walk the path of this world well.

After washing off the smell of alcohol, he changed into a white shirt and khaki slacks and came out of the bathroom. He passed by the dining table and picked up a bean paste bun that someone bought, and picked up the mobile phone on the table.

"Your Majesty is out of the bath. Your cell phone has been ringing for a long time, so I put it on the table for you." Zou Wenyu shouted at him.

It was basically his manager Zhu Heping who called. Seeing that he hadn't answered for too long, he simply sent a text message.First of all, congratulate him on entering the fifth round with an unbelievable tone, and then explain to him to market his image more on Weibo or something, and interact more with the company's artists. In addition, it is about work. The four contestants in the first round took a special photo, and they also took advantage of the vigorous limelight to do multiple promotions.

"Wenyu, how's your new song recording going?" Ling Qingyuan leaned against the door frame, biting a bean paste bun.He thought that this taste must not have been bought by Yuan Xin, so he expressed his gratitude to the owner of the buns in another way.

"Don't mention it. The records are all around AQUA, saying that the pillars can't fall. How much energy is there to take care of the bottom of the pyramid like us. We are sent to produce the work first, and then think about other things. Me, the recording studio is every day. Run, what's the use of the company not paying attention."

Ling Qingyuan just asked him a casual question, which elicited a lot of complaints from him.Ling Qingyuan also bluntly comforted him: "If the single is out and you want to make an MV, you can ask me for help."

"There is no sign of horoscope. Besides, why are you helping, as a male model?"

Ling Qingyuan knew that he was fast-talking, so he smiled and didn't say much. He waved to them and said that he would go for a walk and go home to have a look.Leaving Xinhong Garden, he decided to find his younger sister Cheng Lubai first. Today happened to be Sunday, so she should be free.

Ling Qingyuan sent her a text message when he was about to arrive at her school, and then waited for her at the gate.During this period, many students came and went. It was originally a training school under Hongxin, and most of the students here would watch "The Age of Stars".Many people went up to ask him if he was Cheng Hebai, and got a positive answer, and several girls took pictures with him.Just say support, like his acting skills or image.The arrogant one said to take a photo with him, even if he indirectly took a photo with a certain god.

They are people of the same generation, and they are also people who are walking on the road of stardom, so they can joke with each other even more.When Cheng Lubai came out, he saw a lively group of people at the door.

"elder brother!"

Seeing Cheng Lubai coming, Ling Qingyuan bid farewell to the surrounding students and went to meet his sister.Most of this group were girls, who said they were so gentle and considerate, and then they left with a smile on their face.

"Brother, tell me sooner next time you come. I'll wait for you, and I'll pick you up." Cheng Lubai ran up to him and took his arm: "You are stupid today, standing at the door, still causing traffic jams."

Ling Qingyuan thanked her for her "filial piety", and joked that she did not expect to be so attractive.

"Brother, it's only been a few days, and you're almost beyond my recognition." Cheng Lubai said sternly, "I've often thought about that person who can perform on stage, play the piano, and be so handsome." Is it my brother?"

"I thought you were thinking of Tan Yue's autographed photo."

"Think about it too, bring it here!" Cheng Lubai walked around her brother, holding his wrist and begging.

Ling Qingyuan nodded the tip of her nose: "I'll give it to you after you perform well. It's okay in the training class."

Cheng Lubai was a little discouraged, and kicked the stones to accompany her brother to go on: "They are all good, and most of the classmates are also good. After all, they all have the same goal. But they all have good skills...they have better dancing and music foundation than me. ..."

"It doesn't matter, your other classmates will directly enter the door of the showbiz after two years. You are different, you will have another college education after half a year and one year." Ling Qingyuan thought about it and asked her to study in a nearby middle school. How is the class over there?

"Please don't talk." Cheng Lubai made a face, covered his ears and pretended not to hear his question.Changed the subject and begged: "I'm the same as them, can't I go to the training class for two years?"

"You are only 16 years old." Ling Qingyuan said, afraid that she would not understand, after thinking about it, he decided to tell her the real reason: "Brother actually doesn't want you to stay in Hongxin. The training course can be used as a springboard for the theater exam, but you have to start from here." After graduating and becoming Hongxin's artiste, my brother disagreed."

"Why...brother, aren't you..."

Shao Weiming reminded Ling Qingyuan yesterday.The more things are placed under the fox's hands, the more tightly he is tied.Alone, with experience, you can find a way out, and there is always a way to get out.If the Cheng family's mother and daughter were involved, Cheng Hebai's weakness would be faintly pinched.

"Brother, you need to raise your family as soon as possible. You are different. It will be better for you if you spend more time studying and sharpening." Ling Qingyuan said: "If you pass the art test and enter a public college, don't mention Tan Yue's signature, it's the one you want to see Daoist, I will try my best to make your wish come true."

"Okay, it's a deal."

The two walked and talked, and then returned to the small courtyard where they lived.The siblings agreed not to mention too much about the entertainment industry in front of Cheng's mother in the future.This is what Ling Qingyuan meant, since Cheng's mother doesn't care about trends anyway, as long as a "son" can make decisions about some things, don't make her worry too much.

Recently, life in the Cheng family has become less hectic.Cheng's mother is a woman who is used to hard work. Although she still has some odd jobs, her son's salary is much higher than before, and the news from her daughter is also doing well, so she is much happier than before.

The family had a sumptuous meal. During the dinner, Cheng Lubai kept talking about all kinds of interesting things in school. Cheng Hebai also said that everything was going well at work, and the three of them sat together happily.

After dinner, the siblings left.Tomorrow is a working day, and Cheng's mother can't keep them.Ling Qingyuan sent Cheng Lubai back to the training school, and his elder brother reminded her a few words like a father.Cheng Lubai had a small temper and occasionally quarreled, but she still believed in her brother in her heart, and obediently responded.The elder brother touched his younger sister's head with a smile, then turned and left.Leaving Cheng Lubai nailed in place, seeing his back in the night, I always felt an unbelievable feeling.She had mixed thoughts, thinking that the flawless man inside and outside the camera was actually her own brother...

The next day, Zhu Heping made a special trip to the apartment to pick up Cheng Hebai and go to Hongxin Building.The artists he brings have emerged and have some value. How he should accompany and support him as a manager is still indispensable.

"Xiao Cheng, you've heard that the fifth round of the show this Saturday will be the clips from three scripts."

"I know." Sitting in the Jetta, Ling Qing said concisely.

"With the weight of these three films, other newcomers can't ask for it. Let's say "Tiger Fight" is directed by Zhang Shuli, starring Tan Yue and Zhen Chun. It sounds amazing, right? A famous director also plays the emperor; but ah , Let me tell you that "Nothing New Under the Sun" is tailor-made for Wang Ledi, and the company plans to use a play to promote him to the throne of acting emperor next year. And Qinxin's "Liuli Lock", then But it was adapted from a popular online novel, when news of the filming was announced before, the reposts went viral."

"How about you, think it over and over again, the best thing is to win "Liu Lisuo". The TV series has a wide audience, and it caters to the tastes of young people, which will help you make your name known and develop in the future." Zhu Heping said. "Liu Lisuo" is an ancient costume romance idol drama. In his opinion, the supporting roles in dozens of episodes have to spend more time than the protagonist of a movie.

"Anyway, "Tiger Fight" and "Nothing New Under the Sun" are empty only for male supporting roles. I think "Liu Li Suo" is really good."

Ling Qingyuan said perfunctorily: "It depends on the director, producer and screenwriter. I will do my best."

Zhu Heping couldn't bear his understatement, and said sharply, "Hey, I'll analyze it with you here. I don't know better than you how to grow up."

According to Ling Qingyuan's original intention, the idol drama is naturally not the best choice.He really wanted to taste and taste, what kind of movie can advertise "to make an actor the best actor". The script of "Nothing New Under the Sun" has not been and cannot be made public, and the fifth round of public screenings only selected a few clips.As for "Tiger Fight", he made a surprise, because all the actors wanted to participate in Zhang Shuli's work... It is a test of the ability of the director and actors to turn over a bad theme.

Zhu Heping was still mumbling and complaining, while Ling Qingyuan looked out the window with his head on his hands.The closer you are to business, the farther you are from art.But he doesn't have much right to choose now. He is an actor, an actor who still needs to live but aspires to be a director.

The four actors came to the company's studio at about the same time. This time the photographer was Zhou Xian. The costume assistant Xinxin saw Cheng Hebai and laughed and said that he still had a few brushes.

For this photo shoot, the company intends to take a group photo and several group photos.Needless to say, the group photo, the two-two group photo is of course to reflect the tension of the duel.Zhou Xian signaled the two sides to prepare for the set, and first shot Cheng Hebai and Xing Yuntao, Liu Kezhen and Yu Chenghan.

Ling Qingyuan came out after changing clothes, and saw Xing Yuntao leaning on the piano and strumming the strings of the violin.The latter raised his chin at him: "It seems that the previous show received a good response, and they want to take more pictures."

Ling Qingyuan realized.Xindao props assistant is really hard. Although it is not a performance piano, it is not easy to move a large object that is one meter by one and a half meters.As soon as he sat on the piano bench, the photographer opposite said that their movements were very natural, and he couldn't wait to press the shutter.

Then the photographer asked Xing Yuntao to hold the bowstring and the piano in one hand, and put the other hand on the piano to make a gesture of two people talking, as well as a gesture of meeting eyes and understanding during the performance.In the end, Xing Yuntao was asked to play the piano and sit on the right side of Cheng He's white piano stool. The two of them stood shoulder to shoulder, and their eyes met in the middle. The camera took this scene from eight angles.

"From the photos of the two of us, I can't see the tension of the duel at all." Ling Qingyuan and Xing Yuntao joked.

Xing Yuntao put the props back into the piano case and put them on top of the piano for his assistant to move away. He also joked: "This cooking method is good for people to eat."

Cheng Hebai took a photo with Liu Kezhen next, and the look of this scene was quite conventional.In the end he was with Yu Chenghan.Probably Yu Chenghan himself is a flammable object, and when he met Cheng Hebai, the photo of the two of them was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.

After the reunion photos were taken, everyone dispersed.Zhu Heping handed the phone to Cheng Hebai and said that he had just snapped a few photos, and asked Cheng Hebai to post it on Weibo as the "preemptive version".

"It's not clear what was taken with the mobile phone. The purpose is to give fans the pleasure of taking sneak shots and sneak peeks. It can also stimulate them to look for genuine photos. Don't you understand such a simple reason for the second publicity?"

Seeing that Cheng Hebai agreed, Zhu Heping rolled his eyes and complained in a low voice that he was so incomprehensible. Even if he became popular, he couldn't last long if he didn't know how to manage.

What he said, Ling Qingyuan naturally let him say it.It's not just that I have cultivated myself well, but I also have a set of work styles and habits in the entertainment industry for more than 30 years and [-] years of my life.There is no doubt about what can be done and what can be compromised, and the bottom line of never touching and never compromising is the same.Of course, he can learn to do things like tweeting routine hype.

Zhu Heping was never fun with Cheng Hebai, and he was not in the mood to accompany him, so he ran away by himself.

Ling Qingyuan left the studio, entered the elevator and clicked on a random floor, trying to find a place to send photos through the company's wireless network.He found that most of the photos Zhu Heping took for him were him and Xing Yuntao.Sure enough, it is more delicious to eat like this.

He wandered around and found a rest area with green plants. He went to the boiling water room to make a cup of tea, and opened Weibo when the water was boiling.The amount of attention increased rapidly after the fourth episode of the show. He checked his fans and saw several artists from the company, Yuan Xin, Guo Yongzhi, Xing Yuntao and Liu Kezhen. He clicked on mutual fans.In addition, I also posted the pre-release version of today's photos on Weibo, adding symbolic emoticons, and by the way, Ait Xing Yuntao.

In a good mood, he put a sleeve on the paper cup, filled it with a pinch of black tea on his fingertips, and just when the water boiled, the tea was brewed.He was about to walk out of the boiling water room with his teacup in hand when he heard the sound of conversation approaching from far away.He was no stranger to the two voices, so he quickly put his feet back, not daring to return to the rest area in a hurry.

"Cousin, I beg you. I really want to act."

"Hey, be careful, be careful. I don't dare to be your cousin. It's true that your father and my uncle are brother-in-law, but there is no blood relationship between you and me."

"My dad told my uncle and agreed to let me be an artist."

"Your uncle is really sweet. My aunt and your mother probably haven't even met each other."

"Cousin, really, I agree to whatever you say, and everything you say is right. Give me a chance, give me a role. I also participated in the show, and the results are not bad. According to the rules, I should have my share. I beg you."

"I said that I dare not be your cousin. Even DNA can't find out the relationship between us."

"Mr. Shao, Manager Shao, for my father's sake, and for my uncle's and your uncle's approval, please let go."

"Your father just asked you to come here for fun. Everyone knows that he can't put down his airs and let his son do this job." The speaker bit "his son" very hard.

"Then what am I here for? Have you ever been an actor?"

"Yes, and we played to the end, that's great. The program team has done their best. After the review is over, young master, you can have as much fun as you want."

"cousin……"

"Yu Chenghan, I really can't sign you. Ask your young master's temper, can you become an actor if you can endure hardships? Even if you can endure hardships, what can you do with your virtue? Have you ever seen a beggar begging for food when you go out? If you want food, you have to put down your face."

"I'll change it, even if I change it, it won't work."

"Oh... cousin, do you insist on forcing me to tell the truth? I'll call you cousin here, I beg you, and I tell you clearly: your father treats you like a son and lets you play with it, but , so that he won’t openly tell the public that he has an illegitimate child.”

The two talked from the corridor to the rest area. Ling Qingyuan in the tea room wondered if he had gone to the wrong floor. This is not the office floor of ordinary artist managers, but the office floor of the manager level or above.

Yu Chenghan was arguing with Shao Weiming, of course, he could say that he was begging Shao Weiming.Ling Qingyuan didn't know the reason, but felt that Shao Weiming's viciousness was as cruel as ever.

Ling Qingyuan didn't care who was whose illegitimate son.He is now careful not to be discovered by the two of them.At this moment, Yu Chenghan was choked for a while and couldn't speak, and he didn't dare to lose his temper with Shao Weiming.

"I……"

"Cheng Han, stop here. I don't want to say ugly things in public places a second time. You go back and rest, and perform well in the last round." Shao Weiming called the elevator for Yu Chenghan and kept pressing the down button, as if he didn't look at it. He won't let go when he walks.

Ling Qingyuan guessed that Yu Chenghan must be resentful at this time, and his anger rushed to his head, but his mouth seemed to be tied tightly, and there was no way out.The elevator beeped for a long time, followed by the sound of hard footsteps, and the rest area was finally quiet.

Ling Qingyuan stood in front of the kettle with a teacup in his hand, making up his mind to wait for Shao Weiming to leave before leaving.However, Shao Weiming seemed determined to oppose him, and walked towards the boiling water in a leisurely and leisurely manner.

When his aura appeared at the door, Ling Qingyuan didn't look back, and continued to sip his tea slowly until he put his arms around his waist.

"Mr. Shao."

"It's great to have ready-made tea. Talking to the little boy is dry." Shao Weiming took the teacup from Cheng Hebai's hand, raised his head and drank without leaving a drop: "It seems that there is Zhengshan small tea here. It makes sense, I don’t know when tea tasters will be ushered in.”

"It turned out to be Mr. Shao's office area, no wonder there is such a good tea." Ling Qingyuan turned to Shao Weiming and said, "Mr. Shao is busy with work, so I won't bother you."

"Stay here. Where is my work? Wasn't I taking an ideological and political class just now?" Shao Weiming pretended to be melancholy and walked around in the tea room, aggrieved: "My father's brother's wife and sister's husband, this gentleman's illegal marriage To have a child, he clamored for me to ask for a role and act. But I am just a businessman, not a circus."

Ling Qing suspected that he was going around, so he replied reflexively: "Isn't it your uncle's brother-in-law's child?" Immediately regretted it, reacting so quickly, and told Shao Weiming that he had accidentally listened to their conversation.

Shao Weiming didn't seem to mind that this crap was heard.He waved his hand and continued his topic: "As for people, there are always people who are suitable or not. As I said, only people like you, Hebai, are suitable to be appreciated by others. That boy, if you want to give sugar to Buddha, you should also give it to the Buddha. Let him go later. Proficient in eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling."

"Mr. Shao's reputation is too high."

Shao Weiming walked back to Cheng Hebai's side, sat on the locker with his arms crossed, tapped sideways and asked, "Did you get drunk the day before yesterday? Was there any inconvenience in going back then?"

Ling Qingyuan guessed what Shao Weiming was looking for, thought for a while and said: "It's good to have a rest. Mr. Tan kindly took me to the city, and the car was easy to take. I went back to the apartment smoothly."

Shao Weiming smiled happily, and didn't say yes or no, but diverted and said: "Hebai, your drinking capacity is only so-so, how can you deal with this in the future. This time I know your critical point, so I will help you a little bit later. You practice."

Ling Qingyuan didn't agree or decline, but still stood aside with a distant look, waiting for him to speak.

"Tan Yue is still angry. Of course, what I'm talking about is not angry. The first half of thirty is not considered old, it is the golden age of an artist, and it is impossible to add to his level. His air, aura, The temperament is also good, and of course the arrogance is not lacking."

Ling Qingyuan guessed that he would never simply praise a person, let alone recognize an opponent with kindness.There should be deep meaning in praising Tan Yue so much in front of him.I only heard Shao Weiming continue to say:

"It's not easy to get his blue eyes, He Bai, you have to cherish it."

"Yes, I can learn a lot from working with Mr. Tan." Ling Qingyuan threw out a rock-solid answer.

Shao Weiming seemed to be quite satisfied with this answer. He jumped down from the locker and patted Cheng Hebai on the shoulder: "It's okay to use him as a teacher, a step, or a goal. Hebai, I encourage you to get in touch with him more. I told you before, and I also believe that you will not be a simple... entertainer in the future."

Ling Qingyuan was really confused, he really couldn't understand why Shao Weiming said to get in touch with Tan Yue more... What is the purpose of this argument.Shao Weiming looked at him frivolously with cold eyes, this businessman has even more superb acting skills than an actor.

Shao Weiming leaned closer to Cheng Hebai's black and red eyes, and the hot breath from his mouth sprayed completely on Cheng Hebai's nose and lips:

"...Of course, no matter how you... 'learn' from him. Please keep in mind one thing: you... are my people."
