After quickly adjusting his mood, Ling Xiu picked up the phone.

"Hey, ma'am."

"Not asleep yet." Shen Jianshu's calm and indifferent voice came from the other end of the phone.

Ling Xiu's heart skipped a beat again.

Sister Shu has always been straight to the point when making calls, why did she suddenly add a nice word today?

Is it...

Bad thoughts suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Xiao Ling?"

Shen Jianshu slightly raised his voice, "Are you listening?"

"I'm here." Ling Xiu quickly put away his messy thoughts, "Sister, I'm playing with my phone and I haven't slept yet."

Shen Jianshu hummed, and finally got to the point.

"Calling you so late is about a movie audition. Because I just received the news."

Ling Xiu unconsciously held his breath.

"Relax." A light laugh came from the other end of the phone.

"Sister." Ling Xiu finally breathed out, "Is this good news?"

"That's right." Shen Jianshu said with a gentle smile in his voice, "You got the chance to audition for "Light of the Abyss."

Ling Xiu jumped up after two seconds of silence.

"Great!"

The sound was really loud, and Chang Xiaosong, who was not far away, almost fell off the sofa in shock.

It was the first time he saw the introverted and calm Ling Xiu being so emotionally outgoing, and he couldn't help getting excited too.

"Great, great! Your efforts are finally not in vain!"

"Tell Chang Xiaosong not to yell ghostly by the side, his voice is too high-pitched, it pierces my eardrum...

Shen Jianshu suddenly said on the phone.

Ling Xiu suppressed his laughter, coughed, and quickly made a silent gesture to Chang Xiaosong.

Chang Xiaosong immediately got what brother meant, covered his mouth and sat down obediently.

"Sister, just now I was thinking that maybe this audition is useless." After a short period of excitement, Ling Xiu calmed down and spoke his mind.

"It was really useless."

These words made Ling Xiu dumb for a moment.

"Director Jing almost didn't read the resume and video materials I sent over at the beginning." Shen Jianshu said.

"Why?" Ling Xiu didn't understand.

"Because he asked his assistant to screen out all non-major resumes." Shen Jianshu's tone became low again, "That is to say, none of your materials could reach Director Jing's hands. The friend I asked also Said that Director Jing is very stubborn and only wants to use professional actors."

Ling Xiu was silent for a moment, "How did things turn around later?"

"Director Peng." Shen Jianshu said, "It's all thanks to Director Peng Shu. Today he happened to come to the company to do business. After meeting him, I chatted with him. He said that he could try to win a chance for you."

Speaking of this, she paused, "To be honest, I thought Director Peng was talking politely. But I didn't expect him to send all the literary and martial arts clips from your audition for "Seeing the Moon" directly to Wei Quan Director. They are good friends in the circle."

"..." Ling Xiu was a little shocked.

He thought that he was just the second male lead, Director Peng wouldn't care too much, and what he said to him at the finale banquet was just an encouragement to young actors.

"You didn't expect it, did you?" Shen Jianshu knew Ling Xiu very well, knowing that he didn't know how to answer the conversation, so he continued: "It just so happens that Director Wei Quan saw the video sent by Director Peng Shu, and remembered that he was in the company. When it comes to being a judge, I remember that you are a very talented person in acting, so I decided to give you the green light to audition."

"One link after another, if there is a mistake in the middle, I will fail this audition."

Thousands of words, Ling Xiu only had two words in his mind: gratitude.

Shen Jianshu was amused by his serious and slightly confused tone.

"Life is like this, full of chances and adventures. Xiao Ling, as it is said on the Internet, you are luckier than most people. But don't forget, if you don't have acting skills and strength, this luck will not fall to you head."

Ling Xiu also laughed.

The agent's encouragement and education really warmed his heart.

"Sister, you are too good at boasting."

"It's just a fact." Shen Jianshu put away his smile, and his tone became serious, "Now continue to talk about the business, the audition is scheduled for the beginning of next month, and the specific time and arrangement are waiting for the notice from the crew."

She emphasized: "According to calculations, the time left for you to prepare is only five or six days. I will send you the electronic version when I receive the script of the audition tomorrow. I will not arrange other work for you except watching the show in the past few days. You are serious. When studying the script, you must study it thoroughly and be fully prepared."

At this moment, Ling Xiu's heart seemed to be on fire, full of fighting spirit.

"Understood, I will do my best."

After hanging up the phone, Ling Xiu walked to the balcony.

In Yunjing at the end of August, the heat is gradually decreasing, and there is a hint of refreshing coolness in the night wind.

He opened WeChat and found Director Peng Shu's name.

Opening the dialog box, Ling Xiu began to hesitate again.

It's so late, should Director Peng go to sleep?

But it would be impolite not to thank him now.

He was very grateful to Director Peng in his heart.

If he hadn't sent the video to director Wei Quan, he would have lost the chance to audition.

After thinking about it again and again, he still sent a long thank you to Director Peng, and at the end he asked him to rest well, and he didn't need to reply to the message.

After sending the WeChat message, Ling Xiu's heart finally became more open and comfortable.

——Just like the night tonight, there are no dark clouds, only the bright moon.

Back in the house, Ling Xiu chatted with Chang Xiaosong and prepared to wash up and go to bed.

Starting tomorrow, apart from watching the show, he will be fully preparing for the audition.

"Buzz--"

The phone vibrated again.

A private message is displayed on the screen.

"Shen Junyan: Brother, where are you? Why are you chatting and disappearing?"

Ling Xiu laughed out loud.

After this busy meal, Shen Junyan, a gossip lover, was put aside, and he felt a little sorry.

"Ling Xiu: Junyan, I'm sorry, just now your cousin called me about work."

The other party returned very quickly.

"Shen Junyan: Damn it. Let's not talk about it, I can't afford to offend her. Anyway, I will participate in the show in two days. Let's chat face to face, goodbye."

Ling Xiu: ...

Good guy, how frightening is that? Sister Shu, slipping faster than a rabbit.

……

Ling Xiu had heard Chang Xiaosong describe all kinds of fashion circles before, and he always thought that his good brother's speech was exaggerated, but when he entered the fashion show of this international famous brand, he realized that he still had too little knowledge.

The scene is arranged in a post-modern appearance, full of sense of technology.

People of different skin colors gathered together, some speaking Chinese and some speaking foreign languages.

Everyone was dressed in fashionable and beautiful or alternative and sharp clothes, with a glass of wine in each hand, talking about very profound and mysterious topics.

This situation made Ling Xiu a little uncomfortable.

Fortunately, he has a friend beside him who has long been accustomed to this kind of grand scene.

Shen Junyan was like an elegant prince, leading Ling Xiu around to socialize, and finally took him to his seat.

"It is estimated that the big show will start in about 20 minutes. I will sit in the middle by then, so I won't be able to take care of you." Shen Junyan stretched his neck and solemnly reminded: "Little Xiuxiu, pay attention to your expression when watching the show." Management, when the time comes, there will be many reporters and fashion celebrities taking pictures. If there are ugly pictures leaked out, they will be severely laughed at by marketing accounts and gossip netizens, and fans will not be happy."

Ling Xiu joked, "It sounds like a lesson in blood and tears."

"Isn't it just a lesson?" Shen Junyan recalled the past with a painful expression on his face, "It was the first time I watched this kind of show two years ago, and I had no experience. Because I heard someone telling jokes next to me, one couldn't hold back, and I was caught without any experience. Graphically grinning. As for the consequences? You know."

Ling Xiu patted him on the shoulder sympathetically, "Understood, I must learn from your lesson."

"By the way." Shen Junyan leaned over and lowered his voice, "Can you tell me about what happened last time? It's about your lucky buff."

Ling Xiuxiu was about to speak, but saw a graceful woman in a gorgeous gown approaching.

"Hi~"

She greeted Ling Xiu and Shen Junyan with a gentle wave, with a gentle tone and graceful movements.

Shen Junyan was slightly taken aback.

Then he showed a warm smile for business and stood up.

"Sister Xiao, you are so beautiful today."

This person Ling Xiu knew, was the hottest actress in the entertainment industry now - Feng Xiao.

She debuted for six or seven years and just turned 30 this year.

Feng Xiao has a beautiful appearance and good acting skills. She has the most traffic among actresses.Not only does she have a large number of fans, but she has also starred in several popular dramas, and her nationality is also very high.

"Hi, Miss Xiao."

Ling Xiu also stood up to say hello.

"We're all friends, don't be so polite." Feng Xiao said, walked to Ling Xiu and sat down.

This move surprised both Ling Xiu and Shen Junyan.

As expected of an old Jianghu, Shen Junyan reacted quickly, and immediately pulled Ling Xiu to sit down and started talking with Feng Xiao.

The marketing account said that Feng Xiao, who was very arrogant and looked down on the newcomers, had no airs at all at the moment, and chatted enthusiastically with the two newcomers.

After talking a few words of flattery and nonsense, Feng Xiao suddenly looked at Ling Xiu.

"Xiao Ling, I want to ask you something."

"You say."

"Now the Internet says you are a lucky star, good luck." Feng Xiao is just like the Internet said, very straight-tempered, without any detours, "Sister wants to ask if you were born or have you found an expert?"

Ling Xiu: ...

Dare to chat with him to find out about this.

"Born." Ling Xiu said vaguely, "Actually, I don't even believe this statement. Sister, I was doing a group performance in Binshan a few months ago."

"I know this." It seemed that the answer Ling Xiu gave was similar to her guess, and a trace of disappointment flashed across Feng Xiao's face, "I thought you had a connection, so you could give me some advice."

"He has been followed by paparazzi since he debuted. If he had found an expert, he would have been dug out long ago." Shen Junyan hurried out to make a rescue.

"Yes." Feng Xiao nodded.

"What's more, sister, you are very popular now. You are like this among actresses." Shen Junyan raised his thumb, "You are very blessed, and your appearance is a sign of wealth."

"You're the one with the sweetest mouth." Feng Xiao was very happy to be coaxed by these words, and smiled unconsciously.

Seeing that Ling Xiu couldn't get the answer she wanted, Feng Xiao only stayed for a while before leaving with an excuse.

Seeing her beautiful figure slowly leave, Shen Junyan shook his head and sighed.

"It's a good thing the paparazzi followed your itinerary clearly, otherwise Feng Xiao would have thought you didn't want to talk about it."

"If you don't say it, will you offend her?"

"Of course." Shen Junyan pulled the corner of his mouth down, "It's like this in our circle, sometimes you offend people without paying attention."

"Why are you so interested in luck?" Ling Xiu asked sincerely.

Shen Junyan was amused by these words.

"Xiao Xiuxiu, ordinary people hope to have good luck and be enveloped by blessings, let alone our circle. The entertainment industry is a place for chasing fame and fortune. In order to be popular, some people will do everything. You see Feng Xiao has been top class for so many years , the money she earns can’t be spent in a few lifetimes, but she still wants better luck. And there is a saying that the entertainment industry is more superstitious than other places.”

As if to prove that what Shen Junyan said was true, several artists came to chat one after another while the two were talking. Without exception, the main point was to ask Ling Xiu if he knew an expert and had a way to get lucky.

"Junyan, I believe what you say."

After seeing off the fifth big star who came to greet him, Ling Xiu felt physically and mentally exhausted.

"Cheer up." Shen Junyan laughed loudly, and patted Ling Xiu on the shoulder, "The show will start in two or three minutes, everyone is going to sit down and pose, and no one will bother you anymore."

"I'm going to take a seat too." He stood up while speaking, not forgetting to reiterate the point, "Xiao Xiuxiu, remember what I said, pay attention to the expression management. You are their koi male god now."

Ling Xiu: ...

Obviously he is from the male god Pixiu!

……

After watching the big show, Ling Xiu returned to the nanny's car and realized that he seemed to have forgotten to manage his expressions just now.

Today's show was very exciting, the models were professional, and some interactive parts were cute. He couldn't help laughing and applauding several times.

"Will I be photographed ugly and collapse?"

On the way home, Ling Xiu worriedly asked his colleagues in the car.

"No." Shen Jianshu and Chang Xiaosong said in unison.

Ling Xiu was taken aback.

"When you were watching the show, I stood in the staff area and took several photos." Shen Jianshu said calmly, "Every one has a vivid posture and is very beautiful."

"That's right, that's right." Chang Xiaosong also echoed, "I recorded a video of you with a gopro, and your performance is very good, and you are astonishingly handsome. Brother, don't worry about it."

"That's good." Ling Xiu felt relieved, and turned his head to look at his favorite street scene.

Back home, various reporters and fashion bloggers released pictures of celebrities watching the show one after another.

The other stars all maintain an elegant posture, taking dozens of photos with the same smile, even the curvature of the corners of the mouth is similar.

Beauty is beauty, but it is a bit boring to see too much.

Only Ling Xiu was different.

Each of the pictures he produced has a different expression.

Some bowed their heads and smiled slightly, some tilted their heads to think, and others clapped like seals with bright smiles.

As soon as Ling Xiu's picture came out, netizens shouted that he was poked in the center and was "killed" to the point of death.

"This is the real male god, 360 degrees without dead ends!"

"The key is that Ling Xiu's facial features will not collapse no matter what expression he makes, what kind of expression is this!"

"I really like his agile posture. Other celebrities are like beautiful puppets, but he is like a beautiful and brilliant little fairy boy!"

"The male god of koi fish lives up to his reputation!"

Ling Xiu didn't have time to pay attention to the good reviews on the Internet.

After returning home and washing up, he started to do business-study the script.

What the crew gave me was a part of the electronic version of the script.

Ling Xiu specially printed it out for convenience.

He had already read the script several times in the past two days, and he realized why the second male lead in the movie was something everyone wanted.

This character has a complex personality, a huge contrast between the former and the later, a lot of psychological activities, difficult performance, and a lot of deep things to dig out.

For an actor, it is really lucky to meet such a character.

Ling Xiu took the script and sat on the balcony to read it carefully.

The night breeze at night made him feel comfortable and clear-headed, as if all his troubles were blown away.

He began to imagine that he was the second male lead in the movie, sorting out his behavior according to the logic of the role.

After an unknown amount of time, he heard a knock on the glass door behind him.

Ling Xiu stretched out his hand and made a "come out" gesture.

The glass door opened, and Chang Xiaosong appeared with a mug.

"It's getting late, drink milk and go to sleep, brother."

"it is good."

Ling Xiu put down the script and took the milk.

This thing is also something he tried only after he came to the world, and it is very delicious.

"Brother, do you really want to take this role?" Chang Xiaosong sat on the rocking chair, his feet dangling, "You are so immersed in the script that sometimes you can't even hear what I'm talking to you."

"of course."

After finishing speaking, Ling Xiu realized that something was wrong with his good brother.

"Xiao Song, why are you so hesitant to speak?"

"Then I'll just say it straight." Chang Xiaosong raised his head with a disturbed expression, "Brother, you may meet a very strong opponent this time."
