This actor needs more money

"It's you, I have an impression."

Ding Xiu said politely.

There were too many people looking for his autograph, but few could leave an impression.

Yang Mi wanted breasts but not breasts, butt butt, how could he remember that.

If you look closely at her appearance, she can't be said to be pretty. Her big, watery eyes are quite energetic, but her jaw is a bit wide, making her face look square.

In the entertainment industry, this image is not considered beautiful, but it is not ugly either, just above average. To be honest, Ding Xiu didn't expect that Qin Gang came to her.

Yang Mi crossed her hands and clasped her hands, Qi Yi's big eyes didn't blink: "Um, can we take a photo together?"

"Okay, no problem." Qin Gang agreed before Ding Xiu said anything: "Little sister, did you come to the art exam alone? Where are the adults at home?"

There are people from all over the world who take the Beijing Electric Arts Examination. They are all minors aged 17 or 18. Most of them are high school graduates and it is their first time traveling far away with their parents accompanying them.

It is rare for people like Yang Mi to come alone.

"My family is local, and my parents are at work and have no time to accompany me." As she said that, Yang Mi had already taken out her mobile phone and leaned next to Ding Xiu, making a classic scissor hand gesture.

"Um, brother Xiu, can you take off the mask for a while?"

Ding Xiu pulled the mask down to his chin.

"Okay, thank you for your cooperation, smile, eggplant!"

In an instant, Yang Mi quickly clicked the photo seven or eight times with the speed of a woman who had been single for eighteen years. All she heard was the clicking sound of the simulated shutter, and the flash blinded Ding Xiu's eyes.

"Thank you Brother Xiu."

Qin Gang took the opportunity to hand over his business card: "Little girl, I think you are plump, pure and cute, and have great talent as an actor. Are you not interested in joining our company and becoming colleagues with Brother Xiu?"

"I took the Nortel exam because I wanted to be a star. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come. But for things like signing a contract, I have to ask my family for advice first."

"Of course. Go back and discuss it with the adults. If you don't understand anything, you can call me anytime and ask me, or you can come to our company for a face-to-face discussion."

"Okay, I will think about it carefully, brother Xiu, goodbye, I will go to the exam first, and I will treat you to dinner later."

Holding her business card, Yang Mi jumped into the examination room.

Qin Gang was confused: "Why do I feel that she is happier meeting you than meeting me."

Today, Qin Chao Entertainment is no longer a small company, and Ding Xiu and Qin Lan are its two best business cards.

Under normal circumstances, I would receive an invitation from the company. How could a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old be able to withstand this kind of temptation and want to sign the contract immediately?

But Yang Mi was too calm.

Ding Xiu pulled on his mask: "Maybe this is the charm. Excellent people are like this. No matter how much they are blocked, they can't be blocked."

As soon as he finished speaking, not far away, a girl also wearing a mask trotted over.

Unlike Yang Mi, even if this girl is wearing a mask, she can still tell that she is a beauty from her clear eyes and half-exposed facial features.

The girl was holding a bag of oranges in her hand and without saying a word, she held Ding Xiu's arm in her arms.

Growing up again, this was Ding Xiu's first feeling.

"Cousin, did you come here to play with me?" Liu Yifei held Ding Xiu's arm with a smile in his eyes.

Qin Gang's eyes widened and he couldn't believe that Ding Xiu was such a person.

This girl looks like she belongs to Nortel. When did Ding Xiuluzi become so wild?

Ding Xiu tried his best and took his hand out: "Xixi, you are a well-known figure now. You have to pay attention to your image in public. I can't explain why you were photographed by the media."

Forget it in private, the media captured it and made the news, and he couldn't explain it to Qin Lan and Gao Yuanyuan.

Liu Yifei pursed his lips angrily: "I'm not afraid of you, so what are you afraid of?"

The corner of Ding Xiu's mouth twitched: "I'm afraid that your mother will kill me. If you say that there is something wrong between us, I will admit it. We are innocent. Isn't it unjust to be beaten for no reason?"

"Well, I'm already eighteen years old, she can't control me."

"What's wrong with being eighteen? You are also a child at eighteen. Don't call me cousin next time in front of your mother."

"What's that called?"

"Cousin."

Liu Yifei: "..."

Qin Gang was stunned. He recognized that the girl in front of him was Liu Yifei.

The youngest student at Nortel, at the same age as others who have just entered the school, she is about to graduate. She has played the role of "The Golden Family" and "Dragon". These two dramas have won her countless fans.

People give her the nickname Fairy Sister.

It's very popular right now.

He is a well-deserved student star.

It is very common for actors to debut when they are still students. This situation is very common in Nortel, but few can become as popular as Liu Yifei while in school.

As for her current status, I don’t know how many brothers and sisters could not reach it despite their hard work.

What Qin Gang didn't expect was that the relationship between the two would be so good.

Even if they filmed two movies together, it shouldn't be like this.

"It's not your fault. I am Ding Xiu's agent. My name is Qin Gang. Just call me Lao Qin."

"Hello, Lao Qin."

Qin Gang extended his hand to say hello, and Liu Yifei shook his hand in response, indirectly helping Ding Xiu out of trouble.

In order to prevent being entangled again, Ding Xiu clasped his hands on his chest: "Xixi, how come you have time to come to school instead of filming?"

An artist like Liu Yifei should have no shortage of filming, and the schedule is expected to be next year.

These are all money.

It is very commendable that I can still continue to attend classes despite this.

Liu Yifei smiled and said, "It's the end of the semester. I'm here to take care of the exam. I'll be leaving in a few days."

Ding Xiu knocked her head: "How confident you are to say that. I thought you were studying patiently."

Covering his head, Liu Yifei felt aggrieved: "You can go out to find a job in your junior year. There are not many people in our class every day. If I were still studying, the class teacher would be the one to worry about."

Ding Xiu looked at Qin Gang: "Is that so?"

Qin Gang nodded: "Absolutely."

The school does not explicitly stipulate that freshmen are not allowed to go out to take plays, but some class teachers do not allow it.

It's not worthwhile to drop your freshman year for a few supporting roles, but if you're playing the female lead or the male lead, that's a different matter.

When my sophomore year goes out to pick up plays, the teacher won't say anything and usually turns a blind eye, which is a bit gratifying.

The teacher would be worried if he sat in the classroom on time every day before he received the role in his junior year.

The acting department is different from other majors. After graduation, you can only work in the film and television industry.

The lucky student was signed by a talent agency just after passing the art exam. During college, he played the leading role and the leading role.

My development was average during my sophomore year, when I worked in multiple theater groups and accumulated some acting experience. By my junior year, I was able to stand alone and support myself.

If you are lucky enough to film a certain drama that becomes popular during this period, you can add a touch of color to your resume and go out to interview the crew more easily.

Nortel is a golden brand, and those who can get into the school are not bad, at least in terms of appearance, they are passable. After a few years, both in terms of theoretical knowledge and practical performance experience, they are much better than the wild actors among their peers.

It would be even better if he has played a named role in a fire drama and has become a "masterpiece".

This kind of outstanding students usually start as minor players after joining the group. They know how to deal with the world, and if they perform well, it is not impossible to play a supporting role.

In this environment, those who are capable have already been successful outside. Those who are still in school at the end of their junior year are generally not doing well. They are not wanted by the crew or have an agent. The company wants it, so the head teacher doesn't have to worry.

Seeing that they are about to have an internship in their senior year, if the class teacher doesn't help and introduce them to the crew, they may not even get their diploma.

"Look, I didn't lie to you." Liu Yifei raised his chin proudly.

Of course Ding Xiu would not admit his mistake, and gave her another slap on the head: "You are quite proud of yourself for not studying hard. When you go to the set in the future, and the director scolds you for your poor acting skills, you will suffer."

"Ah this..."

Suddenly, Liu Yifei was at a loss for words.

Acting is her flaw, but it’s not her fault. Who hasn’t been there step by step since they were young?

There is no one-step process for this. You have to shoot more and think more. If you meet a good director, he can teach you how to act.

She is only eighteen years old and has just reached adulthood. Isn't it a bit harsh to expect her to be good at acting?

Ding Xiu waved his hand impatiently: "Go, go, let's go and play, uncle is busy with business."

"Hand out the flyers, let me help you." Liu Yifei grabbed the flyers from Ding Xiu's hand and handed them out to everyone he saw. Within two minutes, they were all sent out. Some people formed a team and came over to ask if Qin Chao Entertainment was recruiting. people.

Well, they are all sophomores and juniors in school.

I'm worried that I can't find a company.

Leaving the task of consulting and solving doubts to Qin Gang, Liu Yifei took Ding Xiu and ran to the cafeteria to eat.

They found a corner and the two sat down. After a while, Liu Yifei came over with two dinner plates, one of which was full.

"I know you have a big appetite. How about I prepare you more food and try our school food?"

As he spoke, he peeled the oranges he bought when he went out and put them in front of Ding Xiu: "Here's an orange, it's very sweet."

Ding Xiu looked at the students coming and going, chatting and laughing, and said, "Is this college life? Open your mouth when you have food, and stretch out your hands when you get clothes. It's quite cool."

"Who says it's not the case? You can still fall in love." Liu Yifei said while eating something: "From Friday to Friday, the nearby hotels are full and there is a shortage of supply..."

"Stop, stop, stop, how do you, a little girl, know this?"

"It's not a secret. Only an uncle like you, who is out of touch with the times, doesn't know about it."

Everyone who has been with Ding Xiu has this feeling. He talks and acts like a young man. Sometimes he is frivolous, and sometimes he is immature.

"The food at your school is pretty good." Ding Xiu took a few bites and commented.

"Don't you look at how much the tuition is every year."

"Yes." Ding Xiu nodded silently.

The tuition fee for studying at Nortel is enough for an ordinary student to attend three universities. Most of the families who can come to study here are good, but there are very few ordinary families anyway.

Children from ordinary families have no time to prepare for the art exam in high school. There are cram schools for the art exam, including singing and dancing, which cost a lot of money every year.

When I came to Nortel, I only had half a ticket to enter the entertainment industry. I had no connections, no resources, and no strong brokerage company and had to endure.

Spending a lot of money and time to fight for an uncertain future is something a poor family cannot afford to gamble on.

After eating, Liu Yifei took Ding Xiu around the school, and finally came to the girls' dormitory.

On the street downstairs, many boys were squatting on the curb, all waiting for their girlfriends.

"Cousin, why don't you come up and sit down?"

"I was afraid of being beaten down, so I left."

Ding Xiu looked up and saw that the balcony of the dormitory was all hung with women's clothes, colorful and colorful, full of youthful atmosphere.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that it was great to be young.

"Wait a minute, this is for you." Liu Yifei thrust the orange bag into Ding Xiu's hand: "Eat slowly on the way, bye."

Ding Xiu smiled, waved, and walked back slowly while peeling the orange. When he arrived at the previous location, Qin Gang was surrounded by a bunch of people.

I'm telling students about the company's benefits.

"If you are interested, prepare your resume and submit it to the company first. We will arrange interviews according to your needs. Qin Chao Entertainment welcomes students to sign up. The next Ding Xiu will be you..."

After sending a text message to Qin Gang, Ding Xiu left the school gate and asked the driver to take him back.

…

CCTV, the largest performance hall, backstage, a group of artists greet each other.

Today is the first day of rehearsal.

Ding Xiu put on a white Tang suit, with a golden dragon embroidered on the shoulder, and held the Qi family sword in his hand.

This is a real Qi sword, not the Miao sword at home.

The program team made this knife based on his requirements and the dimensions given.

The first reaction is that it is long, like a stick when unsheathed, and the second is that it is heavy, very heavy, and the sharp blade is so cold that no one doubts that it can remove the arm with one strike.

"Brother Hua, long time no see."

Backstage, Ding Xiu saw only one acquaintance, the king Liu Dehua.

The two had previously collaborated on Zhang Yi's film House of Flying Daggers.

"It's been a long time since I saw Ding Xiu. He's very handsome in this suit. He's more handsome than me. Hey, your sword is so powerful. Lend it to me for fun."

Holding Ding Xiu's knife, Liu Dehua, in a bright red Tang suit, gestured and asked someone to take photos of him and Ding Xiu.

Then he went to the next person to say hello.

After going around, Liu Dehua didn't leave anyone in the cold, and he was friendly and congenial to everyone.

Ding Xiu found a chair and sat down, looking at Liu Dehua who was as comfortable as a fish in water, and sighed, feeling ashamed.

I don’t know anyone in the circle who has said such a saying, be like Andy Lau.

It means that Liu Dehua is very good at being a person. Looking at the circle, he has few enemies, especially in the mainland, where his reputation and reputation are very good.

Ding Xiu had heard Wang Baoqiang mention it before. When Baoqiang went to Wanwan for the first time during the 2003 Golden Horse Awards, he couldn't get any water out of the restroom backstage because he didn't know how to use a sensor faucet.

Liu Dehua, who was passing by, saw his embarrassment and used it beside him once, and then left without saying a word.

As a result, the two met for the second time in A World Without Thieves. Baoqiang bowed to him without saying a word, which shocked people.

Of course, some people say that Andy Lau is an all-rounder and can only act when the occasion arises, and will not offend anyone.

But no matter what, being able to stay in the industry for so many years is indeed extraordinary.

At least Ding Xiu couldn't do this.

When facing people he doesn't like, he doesn't bother to do anything superficial. Not hitting people is considered a good quality.

While Ding Xiu was still resting, Liu Dehua came over after saying hello and sat next to him with a smile.

"I heard that you and Wei Jian had some conflicts?"

Ding Xiu was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "Brother Hua has such a wide network of people, Zhang Weijian also knows him."

"Hong Kong Island is so big, and the circle is so small. There are only a few people here and there, and it's hard to even recognize them."

Patting Ding Xiu on the shoulder, Liu Dehua said: "As actors, we are just trying to make ends meet. Having more friends does not necessarily lead to a better life, but one less enemy will definitely make our life more comfortable."

"It's normal for young people to be noisy. Don't take some things to heart. I'll tell him another day and ask him not to target you. We will all be friends from now on."

Ding Xiu doesn't know if Hua Zai is a well-mannered person, but he really knows how to be a good person.

Ding Xiu was convinced and shouted that he had learned it.

"Thank you, Brother Hua."

"You're welcome with just a little effort."
