Be reborn and be happy to the fullest

Li Shuo didn't know that by "forcibly" taking Jin Chen away, he had severely offended a group of "second-generation artists" at the Central Academy of Drama, and even caused Dong Dong to specially find Nie Haihao to try to persuade the "original author" to snatch the copyright of "The Invisible Guardian"!

After he was called in this morning, he has been sitting in the first row. This is the "waiting room" prepared for students who will be giving speeches on stage later.

Not long after he sat down, a beautiful woman walked onto the stage and announced the start of the art appreciation meeting. Then she started talking a lot of things. Li Shuo listened to some of them and felt a little disappointed: he had heard about this meeting before, saying that the works of this drama competition would be discussed, but the result was still the same old routine. The host always took the lead in thanking the people on the stage and invited Mr. Jin to speak first.

But the disappointment didn't last long, because Mr. Jin just casually praised the works of this year's drama competition, and then changed the subject and said: "...Among them, the most eye-catching one is the first place in the script group, "The Invisible Guardian". It just so happens that its author is also here. Li Shuo, come up and say a few words to everyone..."

The straightforward words seemed very down-to-earth. Li Shuo in the audience responded, then stood up and went on stage.

The stage was specially designed, with a high table in the middle similar to a podium with a microphone fixed on it, and leadership seats on both sides. After Li Shuo came on stage, there were naturally light poles shining down, covering him, making him the focus of the entire audience.

Correspondingly, the leadership seat behind him and the beautiful host Qiao Yuxin standing next to him were not so eye-catching.

"Hello, fellow students from all over the world, hello, leaders..."

Li Shuo's opening remarks were ordinary yet a little different. Seeing him bow to the audience first and then turn around and bow to the back, Qiao Yuxin raised her eyebrows, thinking that this guy was a bit unconventional.

"I am Li Shuo, the author of the script of The Invisible Guardian. I would like to say that the idea for the novel version came from Nie Haihao, a student at the Beijing Film Academy. It was his long-term research on that revolutionary era that led to the formation of a systematic novel..."

Li Shuo didn't know that Nie Haihao was being poached by Dong Dong. He just mentioned Nie Haihao first out of a desire to compensate the original author.

This unintentional action made Nie Haihao in the audience clench his fists fiercely. He was so excited that he couldn't control himself. He even grabbed Song Chenzhuo beside him, let go of all his concerns, and shouted happily: "Did you hear it? Did you hear it? This is my partner! If it was any of your Dong brothers, would he mention my name? I'm afraid he wouldn't even give me the second author!"

Song Chenzhuo's shoulder was hurt by Nie Haihao's pinch, and he couldn't help but frown and said, "That guy just mentioned it, is it necessary to be so excited?"

"What do you know? I only wrote the beginning of the novel, and then it was online for half a year, but not many people read it. It wasn't even popular. I gave up long ago until Li Shuo found me. Tell me, is he my mentor? Is he kind enough to help me?"

Nie Haihao said excitedly: "If it wasn't for Li Shuo, which Brother Dong would come to find me? He doesn't even know who I am! Even so, you still want me to betray Li Shuo..."

Seeing his ferocious face and excited emotions, Song Chenzhuo couldn't even say a word for a while...

On the other hand, along with Li Shuo's words, a small noise sounded from the audience:

"Tsk, you copied someone else's work, and you still have the nerve to say it out loud!"

"Why does this guy have the right to give a speech on stage!"

There weren't many voices. Jin Chen looked around and found that they were all students from the Central Academy of Drama that he knew. He couldn't help but shout to Dong Dong who was not far away, "What are you doing? Why are you letting people make trouble in the audience?"

Dong Dong was very annoyed. His original plan was to incite Nie Haihao to defect and then let his classmates expose the secret of Li Shuo's "plagiarism". But now that Nie Haihao had failed, his classmates' actions had put him in a passive position.

Hearing Jin Chen's voice, he quickly said, "Little Princess, it's not me. How could I have the guts to do this? Li Shuo is the speaker appointed by Master Jin. To mess with him is to not give Master Jin face!"

Jin Chen stared at him and continued, "Then go and maintain order at the scene!"

"Uh, okay!"

Dong Dong gritted his teeth, stood up, and sent fierce and angry eyes around...

On the stage, Li Shuo continued his speech:

"... Let's talk about the script. The plot of The Invisible Guardian is as follows... In terms of the plot alone, although it is okay, it is far from the level that will be praised by the judges..."

"...I think the most important part of the script is its innovation..."

“…So, whether it’s technology or culture, what we young people need to do is never to follow the rules, have our own ideas, and dare to innovate…”

The word "innovation" is actually the major strategic direction proposed by the country in recent years, so when the leaders in the back row heard what Li Shuo said, they all showed approval. The script innovation method mentioned by Li Shuo is also a real and effective pioneering idea, so the students in the audience listened very attentively.

"Finally, let me share with you the reason why this script is so innovative: the reason why it has so many branching plots is to adapt to the brand-new shooting and production techniques, that is, audio-visual games..."

"Everyone has played games, and you should know that games require a clearance process. Think about it carefully, isn't it very similar to the script of "The Invisible Guardian"? That's right, when "The Invisible Guardian" was first written, it was aimed at adapting games. Now, it has been approved by Lenghai Shuoguo Cultural Company. After the end of this drama competition, it is ready to start filming. It is expected to meet you next year. Please pay more attention to it..."

"My speech is over, thank you everyone!"

"Whoa"

As Li Shuo's last words came out, warm applause broke out at the scene!

Huang Mingrui on the stage kept nodding his head, and said to Mr. Jin with a little surprise: "I didn't expect that this kid has already started to practice the script. Great, it's really great!"

Old Jin nodded and said, "I heard from Cao Jie that this guy's artistic attainments are far inferior to his business talents. The Shuoguo Culture he just mentioned is actually his own company."

Huang Mingrui suddenly realized: "No wonder! Li Shuo has turned his dream into reality. Tsk, compared to other art students, he has won at the starting line right from the beginning!"

"Clap"

Jin Chen in the audience was also clapping excitedly. In her eyes, Li Shuo, who was giving a serious speech on the stage, was simply glowing, exuding masculine charm from head to toe. Compared to him, all the students from the Central Academy of Drama and the elites from the Beijing Dance Academy seemed overshadowed and were not on the same level at all.

Someone patted Jinchen on the shoulder and asked, "Hey, Xiaochenchen, who is this boy? Do you know him?"

Jin Chen turned her head and saw two concerned faces. Her excitement immediately disappeared and she asked, "Song Cheche, Zhao Ziying, is there anything else in the Central Academy of Drama that you don't know?"

Zhao Ziying said with a smile: "I only know that Dong Dong just gathered a large group of students, saying that he wanted to teach Li Shuo on the stage a lesson..."

Jin Chen looked a little unnatural and said, "What does this have to do with me?"

Song Cheche pouted and said, "Hasn't Dong Dong been following you around all the time? He suddenly stared at Li Shuo like a rooster in heat. Tell me, we are a little curious about the person on the stage. Who should we ask if not you?"

Jin Chen took a deep breath, knowing that he could not escape the gazes of these two vixens, so he said, "Li Shuo is from Lenghai Drama Academy. He previously studied under Professor Cao Jie of the Conservatory of Music, and later was favored by my grandfather..."

After listening, Song Cheche commented: "You only talked about Li Shuo's background, but didn't talk about his relationship with you!"

Zhao Ziying pulled Song Cheche and said with a smile: "Okay, don't embarrass this girl..."

Then he said seriously, "You also heard what Li Shuo said on the stage just now. Can you help us find out if we can participate in his "Invisible Guardian" project?"

After hearing this, Jin Chen suddenly realized: "No wonder you two fairies suddenly care so much about boys, I thought..."

"Why?"

Seeing the two foxes looking at him with a smile, Jin Chen quickly shut up and said, "Didn't you hear it? He wants to set up a game project."

These beauties who hang out in the top art circles all day long are actually not short of resources. What Jin Chen meant was: Do you guys also like the game project?

Sure enough, the next moment Song Cheche shook his head and said, "I feel that Li Shuo's implication is that he has a film and television project. His project is quite interesting and seems to have some potential..."

To put it bluntly, these two campus beauties from the Central Academy of Drama are paving the way for the future.

Jin Chen also understood this, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. If I meet him in the future, I will ask you guys to come out and play together..."

"My dear sister, I've been waiting for you to say this!"

"Don't wait until later. How about tonight? I'll treat you. I'll invite Qiao Qiao and Ying Er. We are the four beauties of the Central Academy of Drama. We will sacrifice ourselves to support him!"

Jin Chen thought to himself: Then you will definitely eat him till not even a bone is left!

At this time, Li Shuo came over after his speech. Seeing Song Cheche and Zhao Ziying, he thought: Are there so many stars in the Central Academy of Drama? Are there even more in Beijing Film Academy?

Although these two are not top-tier stars, they are also quite well-known: Song Cheche became famous for playing the role of "Fan Ruoruo", and Zhao Ziying is more regarded by the public as an internet celebrity, but in fact she is a graduate of a genuine professional school. She has released different works every year since graduation, but unfortunately none of them are popular.

"Li Shuo, let me introduce you to two of them, the campus beauties of the Central Academy of Drama, Song Cheche and Zhao Ziying..."

Then, Jin Chen pointed at Qiao Yuxin on the stage and said, "And that one, the three of them are from the same dormitory, which is also the most famous dormitory for beauties in Beijing. From noblemen to ordinary students, all of them have stayed downstairs of their dormitory..."

This introduction immediately aroused Zhao Ziying's dissatisfaction, and she said angrily: "Hey, Xiao Chenchen, what do you mean? Are we all women who attract bees and butterflies?"

Song Cheche said in a mixed tone: "Can't you see that? Xiao Chenchen doesn't want Li Shuo to get too close to us."

With so many women, even Li Shuo finds it difficult to handle the issues.

However, the moment Li Shuo saw Song Cheche and Zhao Ziying, he had already made up his mind: Shuoguo Culture has enough artists, and even if they are reborn, it is impossible for him to grab all the good meat into his own bowl, so there is no need to be too enthusiastic about these two, and just have normal interactions with them.

So he didn't need to rashly intervene between the women. He just watched the women quarreling with a smile in silence.

When asked this morning, he blushed and tried to cover his mouth, saying, "I... I didn't mean that..."

"Xiao Chenchen blushed..."

"Tsk tsk, no way, Chenchen, sister is just joking, did I hit the nail on the head?"

Jin Chen finally seemed to be unable to bear it anymore and surrendered, saying, "Forget it, I can't beat you. You want to meet Li Shuo. Look, isn't the real boss here now?"

Suddenly, Song Cheche and the other girl looked at Li Shuo.

Li Shuo thought to himself: This beauty Jin Chen is good in every way, except that she is too soft-tempered.

Facing the gazes of the two women, he first said blankly: "Why do you want to know me?"

Then he smiled and said, "I think I want to meet two beautiful ladies from the Central Academy of Drama. After all, I am a cold actor..."

In the minds of art students, cold dramas are inherently inferior to those of Central Academy of Drama. Boys who perform cold dramas are naturally inferior to the campus beauties of Central Academy of Drama.

"Hehe, you're quite good at talking."

"Li Shuo, Song Cheche will treat you tonight and take you to appreciate the night view of the capital. Do you want to come?"

Li Shuo's performance made Song Cheche and Zhao Ziying feel that "it should be so", so the two campus beauties also started to act like goddesses. Song Cheche was okay, she just made "comments", but Zhao Ziying simply seemed to be "ordering people around".

On the other hand, Jin Chen looked at Li Shuo with a little disappointment: she originally thought that Li Shuo was different from other boys, but now it seems that there is no difference. He is a coward in front of these beauties from the Central Academy of Drama.

"Um, sorry, ladies, I can't make it tonight. I have an appointment!"

Li Shuo's expression was sincere, and he even explained deliberately: "The drama competition has not yet ended. I have arranged to have dinner with some teachers tonight to keep in touch. After all, I am from Lenghai and have no foundation in the capital. These things must be done."

Song Cheche narrowed his eyes and said, "Li Shuo, you are wrong. As long as we can get our little Chenchen, the drama competition will be easy to win."

Jin Chen immediately scolded, "Song Cheche! Stop talking nonsense!"

Li Shuo laughed, shook his head and said, "I do have the intention, but such mundane matters cannot be mixed up with personal feelings."

Zhao Ziying gave him a thumbs up: "Great! Just for this sentence, I've decided to make you my friend! Then how about we have dinner together after the drama competition?"

Li Shuo looked at Jin Chen and said, "How about this? I'll host the party and let Jin Chen contact the two beauties.

Only then did Song Cheche and the other two girls come to their senses: Could it be that Li Shuo really wanted to pursue Jin Chen? So he was drawing a line between them?

Jin Chen's big eyes were sparkling at this moment, and she obviously understood what Li Shuo meant.
