Seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune, I became a legend in the entertainment industry by avo

Zhang Qilin, who was eating, felt a pang of anxiety when he heard Feng Yuanzheng's question.

Zhang Qilin knew that Feng Yuanzheng's presence at the restaurant was not simply a matter of recognizing the place.

These past few days, his mind has been filled with these two disasters.

It would be a lie to say he harbored no resentment.

If it weren't for these two disasters, he wouldn't have gone through so much trouble to get the opportunity to intern at the Beijing People's Art Theatre.

He also knew that the Beijing People's Art Theatre couldn't be entirely blamed for this.

The people ahead of us have already blocked the way.

So much so that when the Beijing People's Art Theatre sees a promising talent with an outstanding appearance, it instinctively questions him and labels him as someone whose character is yet to be tested.

They are afraid that the resources they have invested and the talent they have cultivated will be poached by others.

Feng Yuanzheng must have had his reasons for asking this question face-to-face.

This was more like a test.

This will have some impact on his future situation at the Beijing People's Art Theatre.

Therefore, you must be careful when answering.

He first pretended to think.

A moment later, he placed his chopsticks on the edge of his plate.

He looked up at Feng Yuanzheng and gave a wry smile.

"Teacher, these two disasters were constantly being reminded of me by teachers at Beijing Film Academy when I decided to apply to Beijing People's Art Theatre. Some companies that wanted to sign me also warned me that Beijing People's Art Theatre needs actors from all walks of life, and my image would be very awkward there."

"Then why did you still apply to Beijing People's Art Theatre?" Feng Yuanzheng continued to ask.

Zhang Qilin explained:

"Teacher, I'm from Shandong. In our area, no matter if you're a millionaire, a multi-millionaire, or have a certain level of fame, nothing is more important than a government job."

Feng Yuanzheng had read Zhang Qilin's information and knew how much Shandong Province valued its staffing system.

He didn't reply, just looked at Zhang Qilin, waiting for him to continue.

Zhang Qilin seemed to be organizing his thoughts, and after a moment's thought, he continued:

"My dialogue coach at the Beijing Film Academy was Zhang Hua, and he was a great help to me in terms of dialogue delivery."

Upon hearing Zhang Hua's name, Feng Yuanzheng showed a look of sudden realization.

Zhang Hua, as one of the authorities on dialogue instruction, has maintained long-term cooperation with the Beijing People's Art Theatre and the National Theatre of China.

The students he recommended should be quite reliable in terms of character.

Next, Zhang Qilin recounted how Teacher Zhang Hua had patiently and earnestly persuaded him.

How did he awaken from his confusion, reject the talent show invitation from the media company, and finally decide to apply to the Beijing People's Art Theatre?

Xiang Fengyuan recounted the story.

In his narrative, he tried his best to appear sincere, focusing on how he resisted various temptations from the outside world in order to enter the Beijing People's Art Theatre.

Of course, he didn't expect Feng Yuanzheng to believe everything.

He was merely planting a seed of trust in Feng Yuanzheng's heart, hoping it would blossom and bear fruit in the future.

In crisis public relations terminology, it means using guided empathetic narratives to reconstruct potential risks into trust assets during communication.

Feng Yuanzheng nodded from time to time after listening to Zhang Qilin's words.

Although the other party did not directly answer his question, he roughly understood why Zhang Qilin chose Beijing People's Art Theatre based on the other party's description.

As for how much of what he said was true and how much was false, he had no way of verifying it.

But at least in terms of attitude, Zhang Qilin attached great importance to the staffing of the Beijing People's Art Theatre.

From the current perspective, this is good news.

If the Beijing People's Art Theatre has what Zhang Qilin wants, then cooperation between the two parties will be easier.

Feng Yuanzheng smiled kindly.

"I believe you won't regret choosing Beijing People's Art Theatre in the future, but I have to tell you one thing: at Beijing People's Art Theatre, you have to be able to endure loneliness. For the first two years, you can't go out and take on outside plays."

After saying this, Feng Yuanzheng stared intently at Zhang Qilin's face, watching for any changes in his expression.

Zhang Qilin simply said "Oh" and nodded without saying anything more.

His reaction was very calm; he showed neither disappointment nor anxiety.

Feng Yuanzheng thought for a moment and realized that his teacher was Zhang Hua, who might have already told him the truth.

Feng Yuanzheng thinks Zhang Qilin's current response is quite good, but he still has some concerns.

Can he really calm down and get through the two-year growth period?

After all, you can't see into someone's heart, so we can only observe for a while.

So he continued:

"Two years from now, you can take on outside roles, but you must come back when the theater needs you. Can you do that?"

"Teacher," Zhang Qilin replied calmly, "I applied to Beijing People's Art Theatre not because it's a stepping stone, but because I genuinely want to make it my support. Even for my own sake, I will uphold the rules of Beijing People's Art Theatre."

Regardless of his true thoughts, when facing Feng Yuanzheng, he would definitely say what the other party wanted to hear.

This is not hypocrisy, but rather that at this threshold, attitude itself is a form of answer.

Feng Yuanzheng patted Zhang Qilin on the shoulder, said nothing more, picked up his plate, and left first.

This conversation allowed Feng Yuanzheng to gain a deeper understanding of Zhang Qilin.

He believed that with more contact, he would be able to truly understand Zhang Qilin's real thoughts.

Watching Feng Yuanzheng leave, Zhang Qilin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

We've managed to get through this.

He wants to get to the center of the stage quickly.

In the future, there will likely be no shortage of such tests and even invisible assessments.

He definitely can't wait two years.

But he wouldn't break the rules of the Beijing People's Art Theatre just to get roles.

What he needs to do is to stay within the rules of the Beijing People's Art Theatre and get the theatre to let him go out and film.

He knew it would be difficult, but with the help of the Heavenly Compass, he would eventually find his own path.

His first priority was to establish good relationships with the artists at the Beijing People's Art Theatre.

China is a society that values ​​personal connections, and this is especially true for public institutions like the Beijing People's Art Theatre.

As the saying goes, having connections in the imperial court makes it easier to become an official.

A word of affirmation or a helping hand from these seniors is often more effective than a long period of hard work.

This is not purely utilitarian; the inheritance of art itself cannot be separated from the bonds between people.

……

Midnight, all is quiet.

In the courtyard, the old jujube tree quietly stretched its branches under the moonlight.

Zhang Qilin sat on a wicker chair under a tree, holding a cup of hot tea, taking sips every now and then.

He didn't sleep; he was waiting for the Heavenly Compass to refresh.

The conversation during the day made him realize that these teachers at the Beijing People's Art Theatre held prejudices against him.

This prejudice is not directed at him personally, but rather stems from the fact that his predecessors cut down trees.

He wants to get to center stage as soon as possible, and he must quickly dispel the prejudices against him.

24:00

Zhang Qilin put down his teacup, sat upright in the rattan chair, and focused his mind.

The Celestial Compass appeared before my eyes.

He silently recited in his heart:

"Daily fortune telling: When will I have the opportunity to go on stage? What should I pay attention to? And what good opportunities are coming up?"

The compass shimmered with light, and the runes on the surface of the divination tube flickered.

Four jade tokens flew before my eyes:

[Winning the lottery, bad luck]

Three days later, on the stage of "Teahouse," the background will feature tea drinkers with no lines to avoid mistakes. (Successful performance reward: Passerby Affinity Fragment +1, Temporary Camera Sensitivity Capture Talisman +1)
