Superstar Growth Handbook

Time passed quickly, Xia Chen looked up at the clock in the classroom, it was already nine o'clock.

Tao Xingzhi saw it and asked, "Are you going back?"

Xia Chen nodded and smiled slightly: "Brother told me to be home before 09:30."

Tao Xingzhi heard this, and smiled: "Then you should go back quickly, if you go back too late, your elder brother will be in a hurry."

Xia Chen looked at Tao Xingzhi, "What about you?"

Tao Xingzhi said lightly: "I came to the company to teach you. I usually practice piano at home."

Xia Chen smiled a little embarrassedly.

"Okay." Tao Xingzhi patted Xia Chen on the shoulder, "I'll take you back."

Xia Chen nodded and said, "You fell asleep when you sent me back last time, and you didn't see my elder brother. This time, you can meet my elder brother just in time."

Tao Xingzhi nodded, "Okay." Then the two took their things and left.

Tao Xingzhi's nanny car was waiting downstairs, and the two got into the car, with Tao Xingzhi's assistant sitting in the passenger seat who had been following Tao Xingzhi.

At [-]:[-], the car parked steadily in front of Xia's house.Tao Xingzhi followed Xia Chen out of the car and looked up. He came here many years ago, so he didn't remember much.

Xia Chen opened the door, greeted Tao Xingzhi, and said, "Come in."

Tao Xingzhi nodded and walked in.

After changing the shoes, Xia Chen walked into the living room, Xia Kui was sitting on the sofa watching the news, Xia Chen said, "Brother."

Xia Kui looked up and was a little surprised to see Tao Xingzhi behind Xia Chen, but then he reacted, stood up and walked in front of Tao Xingzhi, smiling: "Long time no see."

Tao Xingzhi nodded and smiled at Xia Kui, "It's been a long time." The two have never seen each other since they graduated from university.

Xia Kui put his hands in his pockets, smiled, and asked, "Have you eaten? Have you eaten yet? Stay to eat together at night?"

Tao Xingzhi shook his head, "No, I'm going back. There's another announcement tomorrow morning."

Xia Kui listened, nodded, and said, "Then I'll see you off."

Xia Kui sent Tao Xingzhi to the car, then waved and said, "Goodbye."

Tao Xingzhi rolled down the car window and said, "Goodbye."

Xia Kui nodded, stood aside, watched the car leave, and then returned to the house.

In the room, Xia Chen, who had just come out of the toilet, looked at the empty living room and was still a little puzzled, then saw Xia Kui walking in from outside the room, and asked, "Where's Brother Tao?"

Xia Kui said: "Go back."

Xia Chen nodded and thought to herself, why did she come and leave after only a while?

Xia Kui looked at Xia Chen and said, "Go and eat."

Xia Chen nodded and said, "Yes."

After eating, Xia Chen went back to the piano room and started practicing. According to Tao Xingzhi's teaching today, although he played slowly, his strength was well controlled.

After practicing until eleven o'clock, Xia Chen went to take a shower to get ready for bed, and got up a little after seven o'clock the next day to start a new day of training.Repeatedly every day, occasionally received a letter from Lu Yaoyang, Xia Chen replied after reading it, and finally came to the fifth letter from Lu Yaoyang, ushered in the first rehearsal.

Huatian's party will last for three hours, and it will be broadcast live on TV at that time, so the battle is quite grand.Many fans who heard the news surrounded the rehearsal venue early on.

This was the first time Xia Chen encountered such a situation, sitting in the RV and looking at the crowd in surprise.

Tao Xingzhi seemed to have gotten used to it, and sat there very calmly, unaffected in the slightest.

"Get ready, I'll go directly through the fast lane later." The assistant in the passenger seat turned to look at Tao Xingzhi, "Follow me later."

Tao Xingzhi nodded and smiled at his assistant, "Ah Tu, I saved even the bodyguard's money by hiring you."

The assistant named Atu smiled coolly, and then fell silent.

Tao Xingzhi turned his head to look at Xia Chen, and said, "No matter what happens later, just follow us closely."

Xia Chen nodded, "Yes."

Atu looked at the two of them and said, "I'm getting out of the car."

Tao Xingzhi nodded, looking as if he was about to face a big battle, which made Xia Chen nervous.

Atu opened the car door and quickly got out of the car, then opened Tao Xingzhi's car door, and carefully protected him to get out of the car, "Let's go."

Tao Xingzhi got out of the car quickly, followed by Xia Chen.

Originally, there was no one here, but when they saw someone getting off the car, all the fans rushed over, and they became even more emotional when they recognized Tao Xingzhi.

"It's Tao Xingzhi!" "Here, Tao Xingzhi is here!" "Come on!" "Ah!" "The real man is so handsome!" "The skin is also good!" "Ah! The people following him Who is it? Damn he's so handsome!" "Really!" "Tao Xingzhi!" "Tao Xingzhi look here!"

As soon as she got off the car, Xia Chen could feel the fans' madness. Those young girls who looked to be in their twenties were all full of energy. They kept taking pictures of Tao Xingzhi with their mobile phones and cameras, and Tao Xingzhi occasionally looked up at the fans. Smiling, screams rang out immediately.

But fortunately, almost no one noticed him, so he didn't feel too much pressure, he just felt that it was difficult to move an inch, and it was clear that the road that seemed to be less than 2 minutes just now was less than 7 or [-] minutes.

However, the Long March also had a head. Although it was slow, they still dawdled to the entrance of the fast lane.

The security guard at the gate let the three of them in after seeing the passes, and then dutifully stopped the fans at the gate.

When I walked inside, I could still hear the screams of fans at the door, but Tao Xingzhi already seemed relieved.

Xia Chen smiled, handed Tao Xingzhi a bottle of water, and said, "It's okay."

Tao Xingzhi nodded and said, "It's okay, let's go in quickly."

Xia Chen nodded and walked inside.

Go to the end, open the door, and walk in. The huge gymnasium is now full of noise, and the people walking around are either staff members or celebrities who are rarely seen on weekdays.

A middle-aged man shouted loudly with a loudspeaker: "Get ready for rehearsal in an hour!"

Tao Xingzhi patted Xia Chen and said, "Let's go."

Xia Chen nodded and followed behind Tao Xingzhi.

The two walked to a dressing room, and at a glance, it was full of people.

Tao Xingzhi skillfully led Xia Chen to find their place and sat down.

After a while, Ah Tu led two makeup artists over. Xia Chen was a little surprised. He thought he would have to wait for a while. He just saw many people still waiting.

Tao Xingzhi saw his doubts, and said calmly: "People in the entertainment industry are always pushing the low and the high." You are popular, so even if you play big, there are still people coaxing you, so even if you are late, the makeup artist will Give priority to helping you transform, after all, no one will pay attention to supporting roles.

Xia Chen listened and nodded thoughtfully.

Because it's just a rehearsal, there's no need for complicated makeup, just a simple look is ok, so the two of them quickly got it done.

Tao Xingzhi led Xia Chen to the auditorium and said, "Let's make the finale, let's look at other people's first."

Xia Chen nodded and looked at the stage.

The person with the loudspeaker just now was still shouting, "The lighting team is in place! The photography team! And the sound team!!"

Xia Chen pointed at him and asked, "Is he the director?"

Tao Xingzhi shook his head, and pointed to a place full of machines near the bottom of the stage, "He's just a director's assistant, that's it."

Xia Chen looked over and saw a man with half gray hair, holding a cigarette in his hand, talking to the walkie-talkie non-stop. As for his face, it was a little far away and he couldn't see clearly.

Tao Xingzhi continued: "Chen Geji, the [-]th generation of directors in China, the core figure in the second batch of directors, is not only famous in China but also internationally."

Xia Chen looked at Tao Xingzhi and said, "The director of the little star?" He remembered that movie very deeply. The protagonist committed suicide in the end. Because he couldn't face his aging face, he died when he was young. The world remembers Only her still youthful and beautiful appearance.

Tao Xingzhi looked at Xia Chen with a surprised expression on his face, "Yes." That movie was made more than 20 years ago. It is Director Chen's Virgo, and it is also a famous work. Many people criticize and praise this movie. Also many.And today's red and purple superstar, Mi Lan won the crown of best actress in one fell swoop in that work back then, becoming the youngest actress.

"One final confirmation. The lighting, photography, audio and special effects teams are all ready, and the rehearsal will start in 10 minutes.!" The director's assistant shouted loudly with a loudspeaker.
