From janitor to actor

A week ago, Ren Shuai and his agent Cui Shaoyu had dinner with Hu Manli and her agent.

During the meeting, Cui Shaoyu issued an invitation for a stage play.

Hu Manli's agent, who had originally rejected her once, changed her attitude [-] degrees. After hearing that Ren Shuai would also participate in the performance, she hurriedly agreed.

Hu Manli was eager to try this, and urged her agent to contact the progress of the matter every day.

A week passed in a flash, and Cui Shaoyu was always busy with the preparation and publicity of the stage play. Since Ren Shuai's script design was very good, she only needed to get the crew together, and the work could basically start.

Hu Manli has been reading the script for the past few days, and then sent Ren Shuai a message on the grounds of exchanging the script.

Ren Shuai also learned a lot of dancer's experience and skills from Hu Manli.

Early in the morning, Ren Shuai received a series of notifications on his mobile phone. He habitually thought that it was Hu Manli who came to him to exchange thoughts.

It turned out to be Mu Xiaoqing.

Recently, she has added fuel to the flames. The success of Gongdou Opera has exploded, bringing her a lot of traffic. Coupled with the outstanding performance of "No. 88 Sick Building", she has also been recognized for her acting skills.

Audience love for her is at a high point.

Mu Xiaoqing is a school girl herself, and her acting skills are also recognized. If she continues to work steadily like this, she will soon become a first-line actress.

It is precisely because of this that the company began to be more careful about her packaging, and the business was also softened.

During this period, I rarely had time to contact Ren Shuai.

I suddenly contacted Ren Shuai today because "No. 88" had a big finale today, and the ratings were very good. The official will hold an online live broadcast to give back to fans, and Mu Xiaoqing will perform a short episode with Ren Shuai. She wants to find Ren Shuai Play against each other.

Because the announcements were too full, she had no timeline to find Ren Shuai at all, so she could only contact him.

"Mr. Li, long time no see."

Mu Xiaoqing is now dressed in an ancient costume, wearing a pale pink skirt, looking very gentle and generous.

"You joined the group again?" Ren Shuai asked.

Mu Xiaoqing shook her head and said, "No, I'm trying on the look, and I'm going to be interviewed in the group."

Ren Shuai was a little puzzled. According to Mu Xiaoqing's current popularity, the crew would take the initiative to offer an olive branch, and the interview step was usually skipped.

Mu Xiaoqing took the initiative to explain: "It's a big s production called "Return". The popularity of IP is very high. There are many first-line actors competing for the role. I just try to win it."

When Ren Shuai heard the name, he really saw it.

This novel is called "Return", and its content is somewhat similar to that of Qing Yu Nian. It is mainly developed from a perspective, and the role of the heroine is not particularly large.

"Well, it's a good work, I wish you success."

For actresses like Mu Xiaoqing who have just become popular, consolidating their status is the most important thing.

This requires participating in some big productions to improve one's own status.

Mu Xiaoqing smiled slightly and said: "The director and screenwriter are both first-class teachers in the industry. Being able to cooperate with them will greatly improve me, but the competition is too fierce, and my chances are slim."

She has studied the original work several times for this purpose, but unfortunately, the heroine's character design does not fit her very well, so she can only rely on her acting skills to support her.

However, the selection of directors and screenwriters must be based on the degree of fit between the role and the actors, the better. Mu Xiaoqing has no advantages in terms of fame or acting.

...

Ren Shuai asked: "Are you competing for the number one female?"

Mu Xiaoqing nodded. Actors attach great importance to roles. In order to be the leading actress, she would not hesitate to act in horror movies.

Now that she has finally been promoted to the top position, the company will naturally give her the title of female number one.

Mu Xiaoqing knew that Ren Shuai had great acting skills, so she took the time to learn from him before meeting the group.

The so-called sharpening the gun in front of the battle, it's okay to be unhappy.

"Do you have any good advice for me? I feel that this character is a bit far away from me, and it's hard to grasp." Mu Xiaoqing asked sincerely.

Ren Shuai looked at it from the perspective of a bystander, Mu Xiaoqing was really not suitable for playing the role of a sick and delicate lady, but the wise and intelligent protagonist sister was more suitable for her.

Seeing Ren Shuai stuck there motionless as if disconnected from the internet, Mu Xiaoqing's face suddenly collapsed a little.

Although Ren Shuai didn't speak, the result was self-evident.

Even Ren Shuai can't give her advice, it seems that she is really not suitable.

Mu Xiaoqing thought about it, and said in a disappointed tone: "I'm just a little bit unwilling, and I really want to cooperate with this crew once."

Seeing this, Ren Shuai said, "The second female should be pretty good too."

Mu Xiaoqing was taken aback when she heard the words, she didn't expect Ren Shuai to give this suggestion.

It was Ren Shuai's suggestion to choose Gongdouju at the beginning, and it was also Ren Shuai's encouragement to play No. 88 later.

Both options were invariably successful.

It also allowed her to gain her current popularity not long after she graduated.

Now that Ren Shuai gave another suggestion, she couldn't help but pay attention to it, and began to rethink her choice.

In the usual competition for roles, actors with status are all rushing to play the lead actress, and no one will take the initiative to resign to play the lead actress, that would be tantamount to self-destruction of the Great Wall.

But this suggestion was given by Ren Shuai, so it must have a deep meaning.

However, Ren Shuai didn't think so much.

He didn't know much about the fight for the position, he just thought that Mu Xiaoqing was a newcomer, so he would definitely not be able to compete with those well-known actors.

In addition, the fit between the roles and the characters is not high. Since she wants to participate so much, the second female lead is a good choice.

As long as the role is successful, the harvest will not be less than playing the female lead.

The more Mu Xiaoqing thought about it, the more she felt that Ren Shuai's suggestion was very reasonable. The second female lead was very close to herself, so it was easy to create effects, and the competition was not that great.

If she wanted to, it would probably be a sure thing.

But the brokerage company will definitely not agree, this kind of voluntary downgrade behavior needs to be carefully decided.

Seeing that the interview was coming soon, she had no time to communicate with the company.

After weighing it over and over again, Mu Xiaoqing decided to make a bold move, changing the interview role to the second female lead without authorization.

With Ren Shuai's suggestion as a base, she is full of confidence.

"I see, thank you Teacher Li!"

Mu Xiaoqing happily thanked Ren Shuai, then hung up the communication.

Time was running out, and the heroine role she had originally planned was to be adjusted to the second female lead role, so she had to hurry up and prepare, completely forgetting why she was playing this role.

Ren Shuai was a little confused. Didn't he say that he wanted to play online with him? Why did he disconnect after thanking him?

Just as he was stunned, the communication rang again.

Ren Shuai didn't look at it carefully, so he picked it up.

"Network card?" Ren Shuai asked.

"what?"

"what?"

Only then did Ren Shuai discover that it was Cui Shaoyu on the other end of the communication.

"Are you chatting with someone?"

"Well, for the live broadcast tonight, Mu Xiaoqing is going to play against me first."

Cui Shaoyu said with a oh: "I am relieved that she has contacted you, I don't need to say it again, I don't want to disturb your show, I just happened to take off soon, bye."

After finishing speaking, Cui Shaoyu hung up the communication.

Wait a moment.

Don't worry about anything, why don't you say it again?

Say it clearly before hanging up.
