A Guide to Growth After Rebirth

Chapter 108

After clearing away the dishes, Zhao Rongjun saw Ning Xuan sitting leisurely on the sofa reading a magazine, and couldn't help reminding: "Honey, don't you need to go to the set today?"

"I don't have a role today, the director asked me to rest at home and go tomorrow." Ning Xuan said.

You must know that at this time, the director's requirements are very strict. Even if you have no roles or very few roles, you must stay on the set. It is very rare to have cross-production roles. Of course, if you are only a guest star, you are not subject to this restriction.Ning Xuan was able to get a day's rest because the director saw that she was frightened yesterday, so he gave her a day off.

"I don't have a job today either, why don't we go out together."

"Okay, it's rare to have a vacation, I'll go out later, but have you figured out where to go?"

"Where do you want to go? I haven't been in Yunhai City as long as you, so you can decide."

"Then why don't you go to my alma mater, Yunhai Film Academy? Our school has a beautiful scenery, which is very suitable for dating."

"A date at your alma mater? Well, you must invite me to try Yunying's cafeteria. I heard that your cafeteria is better than many restaurants outside."

"No problem, the big pot of rice in the cafeteria is enough!" Ning Xuan said with a smile.

The two of them took the bus to Ning Xuan's alma mater - Yunhai Film Academy like ordinary young couples.Yunhai Film Academy has sent a large number of talents to the entertainment industry, including all kinds of talents in front of and behind the scenes.Some big names will return to their alma mater to give speeches or something after they become famous, to motivate their juniors. Those who go out from the same school are more or less passionate.

"Hey, Axuan, why is there no one in your school?" Zhao Rongjun walked in the school, but felt that it was sparsely populated, and it was different from the school he remembered.

Ning Xuan also felt that there were too few people, and she didn't see many people along the way. Could it be that the school is doing some activities?
Soon, Ning Xuan found the answer in the bulletin board.

She pointed to a poster in the bulletin board, "A Jun, look, the famous screenwriter Rao Lili is giving a speech at school today."

Looking at the unattractive but very confident middle-aged woman on the poster, Zhao Rongjun was a little puzzled and asked, "Who is she? Why haven't I heard of it?"

Ning Xuan pulled him immediately to the bulletin board, and said: "She is a well-known screenwriter, and this year she won the best screenwriter of the Peony Award for "Little Nanny". She is good at life-related scripts. I love watching, so I don’t know her.”

Zhao Rongjun suddenly realized, "Oh, "Little Nanny", my mother was still watching it when I went home during the Chinese New Year. However, no matter how popular a TV series is, it is difficult for ordinary people to pay attention to who the screenwriter is and who the director is. It's not bad."

Ning Xuan nodded and agreed: "Yes, the role of screenwriters has never been valued by people. Many directors can write a script and then start filming. For a well-known screenwriter like Rao Lili, the remuneration for an episode of a TV series is not enough. As a newcomer in film and television, my salary is high. Therefore, many people will choose front-stage jobs such as actors, and it is easy to gain both fame and fortune, but without the support of behind-the-scenes workers, it is impossible for a TV series to be produced.”

"Let's go, do you want to listen to this screenwriter's speech?" Zhao Rongjun asked.

Ning Xuan shook her head, and said: "Forget it, there are still many people who will cheer for Rao Lili's speech. She has been in the industry for more than ten years, and she has known many directors and actors. Many people go for Rao Lili's contacts. Let's not join in the excitement, we are all in the same circle, we will meet sooner or later."

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Zhao Rongjun unknowingly took Ning Xuan's arm, and Ning Xuan leaned on him without being watched.

Just as the two were walking sweetly in the campus, one ran into Ning Xuan.

The other party quickly apologized: "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry, you are not injured, are you?"

"It's okay, it's okay, just be careful in the future."

"Hey, the senior is you, this is the brother-in-law!" It was Ning Xuan's junior Zhao Yidan who bumped into Ning Xuan, and she pointed at Zhao Rongjun with a nympho, "Wow, looking at a photo is worse than looking at a real person, brother-in-law is really real!" Handsome and in good shape!"

Zhao Rongjun cheerfully accepted the call of brother-in-law. She really knew Zhao Yidan. Back then, both of them were in the crew of "You at the Same Table", but one was a supporting role and the other was a secondary role. It's normal that Zhao Yidan didn't recognize him.

Ning Xuan didn't deny it either, but she who was nestled in Zhao Rongjun's arms immediately left his arms and stood aside, "Dandan, why are you running out of breath? Could it be that you are going to listen to Rao Lili's speech?"

Zhao Yidan nodded frantically, "That's right, senior sister, do you know? Thanks to last year's "You at the Same Table", other classmates who made this movie and I also became popular with this movie. Now I can receive For some important roles, there is no need to play tricks. I heard that Rao Lili not only came to give a speech today, but also scouted actors for her new script, so I have to give it a try."

"Then I wish you the best of luck." Ning Xuan said with a smile.

Zhao Yidan stopped, panting heavily, and put the notebook and small gift in his hand behind him, "But, since senior sister, you and brother-in-law come to visit the school, I have to accompany you, there are so many people in the auditorium. If there are more people to join us, one more person is not too many, and one less person is not much.”

Zhao Yidan felt that instead of trying his luck with such a bunch of people, it would be better to curry favor with this senior sister who has always had a good relationship with her.You know, Ning Xuan's reputation for being able to act, sing, and write has spread throughout the school, and many people admire Ning Xuan's versatility.Zhao Yidan is just an ordinary student. Last year, "You at the Same Table" gave her a taste of popularity. After that, she received many invitations and her wallet was full. She was even more reluctant to part with the colorful career of an actor.

Ning Xuan asked her: "Did you not contact Director Deng? He should also have a new movie this year."

Mentioning Deng Wenfeng, Zhao Yidan immediately put on a bitter face, and said, "Why not? I called Director Deng a while ago, but he said that this year he would make an absurd drama film, with male characters as the main characters, and Nothing fits my role."

Absurd comedy movie?Could it be Deng Wenfeng's second movie, "A Ridiculous Night" that established him as the king of comedy?
Ning Xuan said: "Dandan, you should do your work first. Rao Lili is a famous screenwriter after all. She rarely gives speeches. Her experience is still very helpful to you."

Zhao Yidan wanted to say something else, but after seeing the intimate actions of the two, he realized that he had interrupted the date of his senior sister and brother-in-law, so he quickly pretended to be stupid, and said goodbye to the two of them with a smile.
