I'm just an actor

Chapter 100
Xu Rong's plan to go to Shanghai was delayed by one day.

He originally planned to go straight up, but after thinking about it carefully, there was no need for that, he was no longer the unaccompanied young man he used to be.

When it is time to owe favors to others, you must owe them. This is the truth that grandpa taught him.

And the reason why he can think of this is because of Jin Fangfang's subtle influence on him. He is aware of this influence, but he doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with it. In the network, you have to learn to use the rules of this network reasonably.

He asked a few friends, and finally, through Song Jia, he entrusted her teacher Li Zhiyu, and finally found out the tone of the person he wanted to meet.

It turned out not so well.

The other party's answer was clear, no.

This is the expected answer. He and the other party are not related, and they have never even met each other, so it is impossible for people to agree immediately.

But he still plans to make a personal trip, no matter whether it succeeds or not, he has to try it, just like going to meet Liu Heping back then, but this time he plans to make an extra set of alternatives.

Xiao Zhang was excited at first, and planned to go shopping and eat in Shanghai, but after waiting for a day, she was not always willing to go.

The big aunt is here, the kind that hurts and hurts.

But if you don't go with Teacher Xu, maybe she won't be able to catch up with Teacher Xu's birthday the day after tomorrow.

It's so annoying.

And there was one more thing that worried her more, but she couldn't say it.

Xu Rong took Xiao Zhang's water cup, towel and other messy things out of the suitcase, put them in the original place, and said, "I'll go there after you get better in a few days."

When Xiao Zhang heard this, her eyes suddenly widened. Yesterday, she watched Teacher Xu contact friends everywhere, and finally got the news from Song Jia, and she had already told people that it would pass today.

She didn't want to delay Teacher Xu's affairs because of herself, so she immediately got up on the bed, pretended to be energetic, and patted her stomach, saying: "I'm fine, Teacher Xu, Let's go, let's go and eat delicious food."

Xu Rong rubbed her head and said, "Lie down and rest, I'll buy you some warm stickers."

Classmate Xiao Zhang patted his stomach and said, "I posted it."

"Why do you have everything?"

"Doraemon!"

"No wonder you want to lose weight."

Classmate Xiao Zhang pursed his lips, squeezed his throat, and asked in a tone Xu Rong was very familiar with, "Xu Rong, do you remember when you were beaten last time?"

"Yo, learn how to speak from me, and you can do it."

"Ha ha."

Xiao Zhang's smile stopped abruptly, he frowned, covered his stomach with one hand, and remained silent.

Xu Rong's smile also quickly faded away. After being influenced by that secret book, he already knew how to solve the dysmenorrhea problem completely. The method is both simple and difficult. After all, he and Xiao Zhang are still students.

Seeing that Xu Rong continued to take his things out, classmate Xiao Zhang said, "Mr. Xu, didn't you tell everyone that I'm fine, I just feel pain once in a while."

Xu Rong didn't look at her, and said: "Don't be brave, let's go a few days later, turn around, I'll call and talk about it."

"No, I'm going to eat delicious food." Xiao Zhang shook her head and said, she couldn't think of any good reason for a while, but she understood that from Teacher Xu's performance yesterday, he Take this matter very seriously.

Xu Rong turned his head, looked at her for a few seconds, and said, "Why don't you wait for me at school, and if things don't go well, I might come back at night."

Xiao Zhang quickly shook his head and said, "No, I'm going to eat something delicious."

She is not stupid, and Teacher Xu also said that if things go wrong, she will come back at night. If things go well, she will definitely not be able to come back for a while. Passed alone.

Xu Rong threw her clothes on the bed and said, "Then I won't go."

He is aware of her concerns, but he doesn't care about being born in Japan. In the past 20 years, he has never celebrated a birthday. In the countryside, it is always said that children grow up fast. Now he gradually understands that the root of everything is poverty.

"No." Xiao Zhang retorted subconsciously, but seeing Teacher Xu's serious face, she quietly got into the bed, only showing her small head, "Okay, then I'll be obedient and lie on the bed."

"Well, I'm sorry." Xu Rong pinched Xiao Zhang's face and said apologetically, "I called Xu Xing to come and take care of you."

"Ah."

The reason why he made up his mind to take a trip to Shanghai is that Xu Rong felt that the whole industry was becoming more and more unfriendly to middle- and lower-level actors. As Huang Xiaoming said, in the south, with Nie Yuan's silence, no one in the younger generation could beat him. But in the whole country, his popularity is still only just stepping into the front line.

Within three years, he must come up with a classic work that completely establishes his status as a top actor.

All of this requires a prerequisite.

He didn't let Jin Fangfang accompany him. This trip is actually similar to the previous trip to Hunan Province. The result is naturally good, but if it doesn't work, although it won't lose face, it probably won't look good.

After getting off the plane, he bought some gifts and went straight to the address sent by Song Jia.

Shangxi family courtyard.

The one to visit is Li Zhiyu, Song Jia's class teacher.

Li Zhiyu was not tall, about sixty years old, with silver hair and a little balding, but his face looked like a very kind old man.

Because of Song Jia, Li Zhiyu was very kind. He already knew the purpose of Xu Rong's coming to Shanghai. After receiving Xu Rong's box of wild ginseng, he picked up his coat and said, "Let's go, I'll tell you about the situation on the way." .”

Xu Rong nodded and said, "Please trouble Mr. Li."

Li Zhiyu sighed, locked the door, and asked, "What's the trouble? Xiao Song told me what you think. I heard that you are only 21 years old. Can you tell me why?"

"Let's take the stairs, it's only on the third floor, and you can still exercise." Seeing that Xu Rong turned his head and was about to walk to the elevator, Li Zhiyu pointed to the step ladder and said.

"it is good."

Xu Rong followed Li Zhiyu downstairs, thought for a while, and said: "My family was very poor before. At that time, I was only thinking about how to make money and live a good life. This year, I suddenly became popular and made some money, but It’s not as strong as it used to be.”

"It's like climbing stairs. It's very tiring, but every time you go up a step, you feel a sense of accomplishment. I like that feeling very much. I'm not afraid of your jokes, Mr. Li. Maybe I'm a bit strange. Standing at the top is more exciting, so I have no intention of stopping, as for the ultimate goal, I have not thought about it, before this year, I never thought that I would get to where I am today."

Li Zhiyu stopped when he heard Xu Rong's words, turned his head, and looked him up carefully, as if he was seeing him for the first time, when he turned his head and went down the steps again, he sighed: "You are so red!" Not bad."

The two took a taxi and arrived at their destination.

Originally, Xu Rong had prepared two packs of cigarettes in case the security of the community wouldn't let him in, but looking at the old family courtyard by the street, he fell silent.

He really didn't expect that the other party with such a big wrist would live in a dilapidated old community with no elevators and only four apartment buildings.

The waves behind the Yangtze River drive the waves ahead, Xu Rong can now understand why Tang Yuqiang didn't accept the advertisements face-to-face, and there are living examples in front of him.

While the two were going up the stairs, Xu Rong took the initiative to stop on the fourth floor so that Li Zhiyu could have a rest.

"He is a fragile and a little sensitive person. Let me tell you first. If you don't agree, don't be brave. Things in this world can't be forced." Li Zhiyu warned.

Xu Rong nodded and said, "I understand."

Li Zhiyu shook his head with a smile. He has lived for so many years, and he understands a truth very well. Every person who can achieve something from the bottom always has some qualities that ordinary people do not have.

Xu Rong gave him a very gentle impression, always smiling, speaking very modestly, always you, yours, gentle like a 21-year-old young man, from Xu Rong, he can hardly see the slightest edge , as if completely rounded by time.

He doesn't believe that this is what young people of this age should have. The only explanation is that he puts away all his vigor and only really bursts out when needed, just like the extraordinary gentleness at the moment, Probably also extraordinarily sharp.

"Dong dong dong."

"Old boy, old boy?"

The person who opened the door was an old man with a thin face who was slightly younger than Li Zhiyu, wearing a frayed black sweater, gray hair, also bald, and more serious than Li Zhiyu. Not a few smiles.

Childlike.

Wang Qingxiang, who is good at his lines, mentioned the voice actor who was full of praise, the big name in the dubbing industry whose family of four could only live in a 30-square-meter house.

Tong Zirong recognized Xu Rong who was next to Li Zhiyu, and the small smile on his face faded immediately, especially when he saw the gift box in Xu Rong's hand, he said, "Come in for a cup of tea, leave the gift at the door."

Li Zhiyu dragged Tong Zirong into the room, and said: "Old boy, people admire you as a senior, why have you said such hurtful words before entering the door?"

Tong Zirong waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, there are no seniors here. I'm just a plain-headed commoner with nothing to do, and I don't want to get involved with anything else."

Xu Ronglai knew Tong Zirong before. He has an upright personality and can be said to be No. 1 in China today in terms of business ability. He was once a hot mess. He is a representative of the second generation of voice actors, but he was gradually suppressed by the leaders of Shanghai Translation Factory. The reputation is not obvious.

Of course, his current situation is still extremely bad, because the leader against him is now Taishan Beidou in the dubbing industry, with various titles dazzling, attending various large conferences and forums, and people are full of praise when they mention it Dear old people's artist with both virtue and skill.

The actual situation, Xu Rong had a better understanding after entering the house. The furniture in the house, probably because of its age, the edges and corners were all worn off with paint.

Tong Zirong seemed not sociable, and when Xu Rong entered the room and sat down, he said straight to the point: "You're an actor, why do you come to me to learn dubbing, do you want to change careers?"

Xu Rong sat on the stool. Although he was surprised, he still smiled and said, "I feel that I am still a little lacking in the expressiveness of my voice, so I want to learn from you. Please trouble Teacher Tong."

Tong Zirong picked up the old porcelain teapot on the table, took a sip of water, and said, "I'm just a commoner with a flat head, I can't teach, and I don't know how to teach."

Li Zhiyu patted his arm with a smile, and said in a low voice, "Old boy."

"Old Li, I explained it to you yesterday. I was really scared. I was on the news a few years ago, and it almost killed me." He pointed at Xu Rong, "How much is he doing?" Hong, it's not that you don't know, I'm afraid that something will happen to me later, and half my life will be taken away."

"Teacher Tong, I really want to learn."

Tong Zirong's tone softened a lot, and said: "I can see that you are sincere, otherwise you wouldn't have come to my house specially, but I really can't teach you, so just take the things back home, and you will come out after more practice."

Xu Rong pursed his lips. He knew that he had to use the alternative plan, and said to Li Zhiyu with a smile: "Mr. Li, can I trouble you to avoid it for a while? I want to have a private chat with Teacher Tong."

Li Zhiyu hesitated, then nodded, he didn't think Xu Rong would do anything irrational.

When Li Zhiyu went out, Xu Rong sorted out his thoughts, looked at Tong Zirong, and said slowly: "Teacher Tong, what I said next may be a bit offensive, but please forgive me."

"Tell me, I'll listen." Tong Zirong picked up the porcelain teapot and put it on his lips. Hearing Xu Rong's words, he became a little interested. He wanted to see what Xu Rong was going to show. Anyway, he had made up his mind. , absolutely not taught.

"I don't study in vain. You are a teacher and I am a student. Of course, I know you don't care about this, but the tuition fee is my heart after all."

Xu Rong took out a thick envelope from his bag, gently pushed it in front of Tong Zirong, and said, "Teacher Tong, this is a meeting gift. From now on, two thousand a day, do you think it is?"

Tong Zirong hesitated for a moment, and the large porcelain tea cup that was about to be handed to his mouth paused in mid-air.

Xu Rong stared at his movements and said, "Five thousand, five thousand a day."

Tong Zirong took a deep breath, put down the porcelain teapot, turned his head, stared at Xu Rong with wide eyes, and asked softly, "Son, what are you trying to do?"

Xu Rong still smiled, looked at him, and said, "Ten thousand."

Tong Zirong held the porcelain teapot in both hands, turned his head, and silently stared at the water in the porcelain teapot.

Xu Rong continued: "Twenty thousand."

Tong Zirong suddenly raised his head and looked at Xu Rong. The tea in the porcelain teapot in his hand spilled a little due to the violent emotional fluctuations and splashed onto his legs.

"Ugh."

He smiled wryly, sighed leisurely, and said: "I used to think that I was someone who didn't care about vulgar things, but I didn't realize it."

Listening to his voice, Xu Rong knew that the matter was over, and said with a smile: "Mr. Tong, this is not a vulgar thing, this is my heart as a student."

When Li Zhiyu saw Xu Rong open the door with a smile, he was very curious, but the answer they gave him was quite strange.

"Teacher Tong was moved by my sincerity, and said that there are not many children like me who are practical and eager to learn, so they plan to teach me."

Seeing Tong Zirong sitting on the side, Li Zhiyu smiled and shook his head. He had known Tong Zirong for decades, and knew that with his previous persistence, even if Xu Rong knelt down for him, he might not agree.

But it was precisely because of this that he became even more curious about what Xu Rong had said to Tong Zirong in just a few minutes.

It wasn't until he went out that Li Zhiyu asked the doubts in his heart: "Xiao Xu, how did you persuade the old boy?"

Xu Rong smiled and said, "Secret!"
