I'm just an actor

Chapter 18 The Monk
As time went by, Xu Rong found that he was wrong again, and it was ridiculously wrong.

When "Bright Sword" was not broadcast, he asserted that the show was unlikely to become popular.

After "Bright Sword" became popular, he looked forward as boldly as possible, and made the conclusion that it will be popular for a while.

After halfway through a round, he realized that his previous estimate was too conservative.

The deepest feeling is that there is not enough time.

At least three days a week, he would follow the director Chen Jian or Zhang Guangbei to promote the second and third rounds and participate in various activities.

In the remaining four days, he will take one or two days, because there are still many interviews with TV stations, magazines, and newspapers.

At the same time, TV, newspapers, magazines, the Internet, all kinds of flattery from various angles came one after another.

How excellent the script is.

About how wonderful the performance of the actors is.

About how difficult the shooting process is.

In all aspects, even a group performer can write an article and boast for a long time.

As one of the important supporting roles, the monk has naturally received a lot of attention and praise, because of the tragic ending, of course he also gained a lot of sympathy.

As for Li Youbin, Xu Rong didn't see anyone at all.

"This month, I have earned the money of the first half of my life."

This is the helpless voice Li Youbin expressed when he was extremely exhausted during a phone call. He only rested for two to three hours a day. In addition to dealing with various media, he also had to participate in various business, public welfare and certain activities that he had to participate in.

As soon as he entered the arena, he couldn't help himself. This was Xu Rong's deepest experience.

He wants to go back to school, study hard and study hard.

This was an idea that came to him at a certain moment when he was looking for comments that praised him on the Internet, because all the comments, from the beginning to the end, were all about monks, and Xu Rong was never mentioned.

And the idea thrives as soon as it is born.

Yes, "Bright Sword" was so popular, the management made a lot of money, and Li Youbin also made money that he hadn't made in half his life, but what about himself?
Every day, I can only talk about some trivial things that happened to the crew, as if talking about an senile dementia, repeating it over and over again on different or similar occasions to win the audience's laughter.

Applause, flowers, and one of the dozens of comments complimenting the monk, but what else?
Nothing.

He wanted to go back, but the management, crew, and agency all told him explicitly or implicitly that he couldn't do that.

But he has realized more and more clearly that the red is Xi, and the purple is Li Youbin. He is just a small piece of the jigsaw puzzle, the green leaf beside Li Youbin.

And such a waste of time is irresponsible to oneself.

He hopes that those who notice him should have already noticed, and for those who haven't noticed, he can hang around them eight times, and it won't change much.

In late October, he returned to school. In the past half month, he basically ran most of the provincial satellite TV.

For the rest of the less important publicity, he shirked it on the grounds of learning.

"This month, I have earned the money of the first half of my life."

This sentence is always lingering in his mind.

In the past, Xu Rong didn't know how much an actor could earn if he became popular, but now he knows.

Moreover, Li Youbin's own existence also simply and directly told him how to make so much money.

Overall rating of A+.

This premise is met, the rest is much simpler, and so on.

Wait for the wind to come, soar up.

Back at school, Xu Rong once again resumed an interesting and boring life that was monotonous, fulfilling and full of a sense of gain.

The only thing that is not very happy is that the teachers in the school are not very dedicated, just asking a question, and when I saw him, he kept running fast.

And there is more than one, the teachers in the college seem to know him as Xu Rong.

At first, he thought it was because he was famous, but he was wrong when he thought about it. Even if he became popular like Li Youbin, the teacher didn't have to hide from him, did he?
Because every time he met the teacher, when he greeted with a smile on his face, the teachers always looked in a hurry, lest he would come forward to talk.

Until his roommate told him about the "Death Note" rumors.

Xu's "Death Note", also known as "Death Notebook".

In just a few short months, this rumor spread quietly in the school.

For the students, it was just an anecdote, but for the lecturers and professors in the Department of Acting, their faces changed when they saw it.

Because Mr. Fan Xu took out the notebook with a black cover and made a base for an hour without capping it.

All kinds of problems, it doesn't matter whether they are beyond the scope or not.

Even the "Huang Jiake" in the department slipped away quickly after seeing him.

Once an enthusiastic old professor saw that he was quick and eager to learn, so he was willing to guide him, but after a week in a row, the old professor asked for sick leave.

He said he was unwell and needed to rest for a few days.

From [-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] pm, I buy food when I am hungry, and pour water when I am thirsty. I have a respectful attitude and the spirit of Chengmen Lixue, but I will keep asking questions.

The most considerate thing is that for the teacher who lives far away, classmate Xu will take a taxi to send him home at night.

It's not a person!
On a sunny morning, Xu Rong, who had just been dumped by a teacher, received a text message.

"Wait at the school gate."

From Aunt Xu.

Xu Rong looked at the back of the professor who was about to retire but walked like flying, sighed, and replied a text message: "What's the matter, Miss Xu?"

Aunt Xu didn't return.

Xu Rong didn't know the reason why the professor ignored him. He also heard his classmates say it as a joke several times, but theoretical things can't be learned just by reading books and taking notes.

But teachers are different. They will explain in plain language, and if they don’t understand, they can ask again, and if they don’t understand, they can ask again.

It's a pity that the teacher is not professional.

After arriving at the school gate, after waiting for about ten minutes, Xu Rong saw a bright brown car approaching from a distance, and finally stopped in front of him.

There are only two seats.

Although Xu Rong has never driven a car, he is somewhat knowledgeable now.

This proves that Aunt Xu is rich.

"Get in the car." Aunt Xu said wearing big sunglasses and a white t-shirt with two dimples showing, "Go, sister will take you for a drive."

Xu Rong has been in the car many times, but this time, he hesitated.

He still wants to fight.

He has seen similar situations many times, especially for students in higher vocational classes, but he also understands what is going on.

Aunt Xu saw that he was hesitant, and the dimples on his face gradually disappeared: "Are you going to make it?"

Seeing that Aunt Xu's face changed a little quickly, Xu Rong guessed that he was overthinking, got into the car, and asked, "Sister Xu, what's the matter with you?"

"Nonsense, it's okay, I'm really here to take you for a ride." Aunt Xu didn't look at him, and after driving away from the school, she drove wildly, scurrying back and forth in the traffic.

"How's your technique?"

"Ah, that's cool."

"But, sister Xu, it's not safe."

"Why is it not safe?"

"It will be investigated."

"Did I violate the rules?" Aunt Xu glanced at him and said, "It's just driving."

When Xu Rong was in school, he always listened to the book saying that rich people actually did not live happily.

But today, he discovered that the happiness of rich people may not be imagined by him.

In front of a row of apartments at the east end of Datun Road outside the North Fourth Ring Road, Aunt Xu stopped the car on the side of the road.

It was probably in the morning, and the neighborhood was surprisingly quiet, with only a few people coming and going on the street.

Aunt Xu took off her sunglasses and said bluntly, "Get out of the car."

Xu Rong was still confused, and asked all the way without saying anything, what on earth was he going to do?
"Sister Xu, why did you bring me here?"

"Try a play." Aunt Xu pointed to the corridor of the apartment, "Uncle Li is preparing a new play, I asked someone to ask before, I can bring you to try it."

"Uncle Li?" Xu Rong was stunned for a moment, got out of the car, walked in with Aunt Xu, looked at her in surprise and said, "Which Uncle Li?"

"Which Uncle Li could it be?" Aunt Xu gave him a strange look, "Have you heard of the Yongzheng Dynasty, do you know about going to the Republic?"

Xu Rong understood now, in terms of fame and works, this is a great director.

But he is also someone who has worked with great directors, and more than once, Chen Jialin is also a great director.

When I went up to the second floor of the apartment, I could hear faint voices.

After entering the room, several people were standing or sitting chatting, and when Aunt Xu came in, they all stood up and greeted each other.

"Uncle Li, I'm here to trouble you."

"Let's see, if you don't have enough professional ability, you can't blame me for not letting you cause this trouble."

Uncle Li is tall and thin, with a round face. He looks kind and friendly. He smiled and said the ugly thing, but it didn't give people a very blunt feeling, as if he was discussing with someone, but when he thought about it carefully, it didn't look like Just kidding.

Uncle Li chatted with Aunt Xu for a few words, then turned his head and asked, "This is the Xu Rong you mentioned? Why does it look familiar?"

"That's right, he played Monk Wei in Bright Sword."

"Oh." Uncle Li smiled kindly, seemed to understand, but didn't seem to understand, just asked: "How old are you?"

"Hello, Uncle Li." Xu Rong hurriedly bowed slightly, "This year is eighteen."

"The lad is quite young."

Uncle Li sized him up for a while, then turned his head, and said to a middle-aged woman behind him: "Mr. Jiana, tell him a play, it's just a stone's throw."

The woman he called Teacher Jiana was tall, with a round face, sunken eye sockets, and a straight nose. She didn't look like a Han Chinese.

Teacher Jiana spread her hands at Aunt Xu, and said, "Sister Xu, this is Director Zhang's rule, you can't rely on me, Teacher Chen Baoguo decided after trying the play."

Her Mandarin is quite standard, and her words are correct.

Aunt Xu glanced at Uncle Li who was only smiling but didn't speak, and said, "I'm already very grateful for Uncle Li's willingness to let me audition."

Xu Rong was still in a daze until now, why did Aunt Xu help herself?What kind of movie is Uncle Li going to shoot?

Even a guy as big as Chen Baoguo still wants to audition?

Teacher Jiana did not answer her doubts, and said: "Next, Teacher Wang will act for you. The general background is that you are a big businessman with close ties to the imperial court. An eunuch wants you to take money and implement a certain policy of the emperor. , but you really have no money, this is a line."

After Jiana finished speaking, she said to a thin middle-aged senior in a turtleneck sweater in the room: "Mr. Wang, I'm sorry to trouble you."

Mr. Wang was very thin, with not much flesh on his face, and wearing a pair of bright silver metal-rimmed glasses, he said, "What's the trouble, I'm here to do this."

"Xiao Xu, you should prepare first."

Xu Rong pursed her lips, pinching a piece of half-new A4 paper that Teacher Jiana handed over, thinking that this is too far from the school, right?
Let's talk about the background, and then give a line full of words, prepare it and let it act?

The line skills are completely defaulted to the excellent level. The most important thing is that this kind of trial method requires an outrageously high level of subjective initiative from the actors.
