After a while, the two of them were still busy.

He Xu sat there for half a minute, got up, threw away the leftovers, and returned to the dormitory.

She opened the door and turned on the light. No one else was in the dormitory.

She pulled the stool away, sat in front of the desk, and hesitated in front of the mirror.

Although the senior sister had a good relationship with her, the drinking party... sounded a bit scary.

She had read gossip online, saying that there were hidden rules and so on. Some film and television people go to nightclubs and have chaotic lives.

But the senior sister said that they went to a high-end bar today. The bar mainly played light music, was relatively quiet, and there was no hot dance. It was suitable for people to chat, communicate with friends, and drink and chat.

And what she said made some sense.

She really waited for Oriental Media to drop pie every day.

What to do?

Should I go or not?

I want to go but I’m afraid.

Oh, so annoying.

He Xu leaned forward, leaned sideways on the desk, picked up her phone, opened the chat software, and scrolled from top to bottom.

What should I do?

Who should I ask? Who can give her some advice?

The senior said that the agent has a position and can’t be trusted completely, but she also feels that the senior seems to be... Oh, I can’t say, maybe she shouldn’t doubt her friends.

I want to ask a senior who knows the circle.

Know the circle. I heard that Director Fang has a lot of experience, but she doesn’t know Director Fang well.

Director Zhou of the Artist Management Department? Oh, I’m even less familiar with him. And Director Zhou is like an elder. It’s a bit embarrassing to talk to an elder about going to a bar.

Ask the teacher? Ah, too embarrassing.

Forget about family members. They don’t understand and it’s a bit embarrassing.

Her fingers slid on the screen.

Suddenly, her hand stopped moving, she sat up, and her eyes fell on a name on the screen—Chen Xiao.

How about asking Director Chen?

They are of the same age, so it's not awkward at least.

But he is a big boss. Would it be too abrupt to ask this question suddenly?

He Xu hesitated.

Just then, another message from a senior popped up on her phone.

Clicking it, she saw that the senior was recommending a style of clothing to her, preferably something pure.

He Xu raised her hand to cover her forehead and sighed.

It really fits her personality, but why is she so uneasy?

She closed the chat page of the senior, opened Chen Xiao's dialog box, and stared at the text box.

After all, she was the first actress that Director Chen worked with when he was an actor. He should have a little friendship with her, right? Asking a question shouldn't be disliked by the boss, right?

Hey! Go for it, ask!

It's better than really encountering unspoken rules!

He Xu gritted his teeth, put down his phone, pulled out a piece of paper, grabbed a pen, and began to draft the question.

Ten minutes later.

As a senior hot pot lover, Chen Xiao was introducing the types of hot pot seasonings to Cha Zelei. Just after he finished talking about the dry sauce made of crushed peanuts, white sesame seeds, chili powder and pepper salt, he saw his phone light up.

He picked it up and saw that it was a message from He Xu.

"Director Chen, I'm sorry to bother you. I have a question to ask you. Can you talk to me for 5 minutes in the next hour and a half? Or can I send you a message? If it's not convenient, forget it. I'm sorry to bother you."

Chen Xiao frowned slightly.

Judging from the tone, he should be in trouble.

After all, he is an artist under his company, so he can help him.

He looked up and said to Cha Zelei: "I'll make a call."

"Just call here, it doesn't matter."

Since Cha Zelei said so, Chen Xiao didn't move.

It was a bit hot outside, so he called to see what was going on. If necessary, he would go to the balcony to make a call.

Chen Xiao directly dialed He Xu's number.

Recorded it by the way.

This is not directed at He Xu, but people who are famous have to be guarded against. Although He Xu doesn't have this brain, she can't help being fooled.

After the call was connected, Chen Xiao said, "He Xu, what's wrong?"

The other party was obviously relieved, "Director Chen, I have something to ask you."

Then, He Xu told her about the situation she encountered.

Chen Xiao thought for a moment and said:

"You called me, which means you trust me more. You are almost a sophomore, so I will tell you directly."

"Don't go."

"It's the same in any industry. Don't think about taking shortcuts. The shortcuts you think are actually winding roads. Most shortcuts are stories made up by people who want to take advantage, waiting for those who want to take shortcuts to jump into the pit."

"You went there for connections, then let me tell you, someone went to a drinking party for a year, drank until his stomach was perforated, and got a few special guest roles without a few lines."

"You can consider dinner parties, but don't go to drinking parties."

"Then there's the price. Why do you take shortcuts to build relationships? Did you get to know her through chatting? Did she hit it off with you right away and think you were her own daughter? Is that possible?"

"Also, your senior said that the agent treats you as a cash cow. Think about it, she said this is a good opportunity to meet the director, doesn't she want it? She asked you to be a supporting actor? Can you be a supporting actor with your fame? No way, you will only snatch the opportunity away."

"Then why does she want to pull you over and let you snatch the opportunity away? Think about it."

After saying this, Chen Xiao heard a sound of cold air coming from the other side.

On the other side of the phone, He Xu widened his eyes and raised his hand to cover his mouth.

Yes, what's the purpose?

The senior has always wanted a chance to perform, but this time she took her to steal the limelight. What does the senior want?

Are they so close that they give up their future?

Thinking of this, He Xu's hands trembled a little.

How... Her breathing stagnated, and something came to her mind.

At a safety education meeting last semester, the teacher said that someone was almost abducted by a middle school classmate.

She blurted out: "Oh my God, oh my God."

On the other side of the phone, Chen Xiao continued:

"Calm down."

"I won't tell your agent about what happened today, so you don't have to feel burdened."

"You don't have to be nervous either. If you don't want to go, no one can force you to go, right?"

After all, she signed with Oriental Media and is the heroine of "Kung Fu".

Considering the two relationships behind her, some people will fool her, but no one can force her.

Chen Xiao rubbed his eyebrows.

He Xu is just a little bit stupid, but her business ability is very good, and her accent has changed.

Oriental Media is now in need of its own talents, so he is still willing to give her a few more words of advice.

"He Xu, shortcuts are often detours, and you have to rely on yourself in the end."

"There is no shortage of people who are willing to take risks in the entertainment industry today. What is lacking is people with strong abilities. They need emotional intelligence, adversity quotient, IQ, business ability, and appearance."

"You have no problem with the latter two, keep working hard."

"As for the three quotients..."

"I suggest you read more books and study more first, and then during the summer vacation, I will ask your agent to arrange for you to participate in some simple variety shows. Pay attention to practice and improve the three quotients during this period, okay?"

On the other side of the phone, He Xu lowered his head embarrassedly, "Well, thank you Director Chen. I'm sorry to trouble you. I really didn't want to ask you for a show..."

Today I really just want to ask for advice.

Director Chen, please don't misunderstand.

Fortunately, as soon as she finished speaking, the other party said:

"Well, I know. It's not an extra arrangement, but it was originally planned. Don't think about calling for an opportunity. Don't tell anyone about today's conversation, so as not to cause criticism."

"Yeah, I understand. Then I won't bother you."

"Okay."

As soon as Chen Xiao finished speaking, He Xu heard a dead tone coming from the receiver.

He Xu put the phone aside, sorted out what Chen Xiao had just said to her, and wrote down one, two, three, and four.

Then she picked up the phone, endured the nausea and sent a message to the senior sister: "Senior sister, I won't go, I wish you all the best."

After sending it, she breathed a sigh of relief, directly exited the chat software, turned off the lights in the dormitory, and got into the quilt to cover her head.

She wanted to hide for a while, she felt safe in the quilt.

Why is the entertainment industry so chaotic? It's even chaotic in the school.

Fortunately, she was lucky and met a good leader at the beginning. It's another day to thank Director Chen, and I wish him a long life.

Now it seems that the saying that the first bird to stick its head out gets hammered is true.

She also made a guest appearance in an episode of "Home with Kids", and I heard that the broadcast time will be announced tonight.

When it is broadcast, she is afraid that people will envy her again. The higher you stand, the greater the pressure.

Ah, life is so annoying! The road to wealth is so hard.

Sorry, I have to digress.

Are there any readers who started reading this book after July 8? I started recommending it yesterday, and some readers said that they could not see the parts updated after June 26. I want to know if this is a rare bug or a bug in my book. ಥ_ಥ
