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

A message appeared before Zhang Qilin's eyes:

[Rewards: Luck Value +5, First-time Participation in a Classic Play as an Extra, Luck Value +10, Passerby Popularity Fragment +1, Temporary Camera Capture Talisman +1]

Zhang Qilin was somewhat surprised by the reward. He hadn't expected to gain so much luck points just by playing a minor role in "Teahouse".

He had been in this world for almost a month.

Apart from drawing a "lucky draw" once, which rewarded me with 15 points of luck, I have never received more than double digits of luck through divination.

As a timeless classic in China, he only played a minor role in "Teahouse" and was rewarded with 10 points of luck.

This reminded him of the system's explanation of how luck points were accumulated:

It requires comprehensive accumulation from multiple dimensions, including the reputation of the work, popularity, fan activity, public perception, commercial value, and even awards and honors.

This revenue clearly comes from the positive word-of-mouth surrounding the work.

He couldn't help but think that the Beijing People's Art Theatre has so many classic plays, especially since this year marks the 100th anniversary of Mr. Cao Yu's birth.

Many related plays will be staged.

If he could participate in all of them, even if they were all minor roles, the reward for his luck points would probably be quite substantial.

However, the rewards for playing minor roles are ultimately limited.

To quickly accumulate luck points, you must acquire more significant roles, or even become the protagonist.

If the audience becomes familiar with him, the source of the reward will not be limited to the reputation of his works.

However, the tradition of the Beijing People's Art Theatre...

Thinking about this, Zhang Qilin couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

The Beijing People's Art Theatre has always had a rigorous training system for newcomers:

The students will spend six months focusing on basic skills training, such as dialogue delivery, and another six months interning in a play, with a focus on character development.

To get more performance opportunities in a short period of time, he would have to find a way to break with tradition.

This not only requires the help of the Heavenly Compass, but also careful planning from him to achieve.

He'd think about that later; he wanted to check out the other rewards first.

With this latest fragment of the "Passerby's Charm" destiny, he has now collected three. He only needs seven more fragments to fuse them into a complete "Passerby's Charm" destiny.

He then checked the next reward.

[Temporary Camera Sense Capture Talisman +1]

You will be able to keenly perceive the best shooting angle.

When facing the camera, your micro-expressions and body language become 10% more persuasive, making it easier to gain the audience's understanding and trust.

nice one.

This is undoubtedly a great help for performances, especially those in front of the camera that require precise positioning and facial expression control.

The rewards were quite good for Zhang Qilin. Next, he needed to consult the oracle to see how he could break the rules in a short period of time.

He silently recited in his heart:

"Daily Divination: How can one complete a training program at Beijing People's Art Theatre that typically takes a year to finish in a short period of time?"

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

Several jade tokens flew out quickly.

[Auspicious/Medium Fortune]

Cultivating relationships with senior artists at the Beijing People's Art Theatre and gaining their favor will not only bring you harmonious interpersonal relationships, but may also provide you with valuable guidance and assistance at crucial moments.

(Success Reward: Industry Connections Fate Fragment+)

[Neutral draw, draw]

You need to carefully record and observe the various ordinary people you encounter in life, and pay attention to their micro-expression changes in various situations. These seemingly subtle expressions actually contain rich emotions and information, and are important materials for actors to understand human nature and improve their performance level.

(After completing the micro-expression recording of 300 people, you can receive the reward: Accurate Imitation Fate Fragment +1)

[Winning the lottery, bad luck]

As a crucial foundation of performing arts, dialogue requires you to follow scientific methods and invest in intensive training (at least five hours a day). You will achieve comprehensive improvement in pronunciation, intonation, rhythm, and emotional expression.

(Rewards for completing the training using the correct vocal technique without damaging your voice: +1 Line Improvement Fate Fragment, +1 Fatigue Relief Talisman)

After reading these three divination slips, Zhang Qilin knew that there were no shortcuts to learning.

These three divination sticks point to connections, imitation, and hard work, respectively, which are three essential things for an actor to establish themselves on stage.

This is also the core that Beijing People's Art Theatre aims to cultivate through a year of rigorous training.

Although the system provides direction, you still have to walk the path step by step on your own.

He wanted to get a role with lines as soon as possible and break the tradition of the Beijing People's Art Theatre, so he had to put in more effort than others.

Zhang Qilin checked the time; it was almost 12 o'clock.

After midnight, the divination refreshed, and he decided to do the divination before going to sleep.

Not long after, it was midnight.

Zhang Qilin silently repeated to himself:

"Daily Bu, what plays are currently showing at the Beijing People's Art Theatre that I could participate in?"

The light on the compass swirled once more, and the runes on the surface of the divination tube flickered.

Several jade tokens flew out quickly.

[Auspicious/Medium Fortune]

The Beijing People's Art Theatre's small theatre will be performing the play "The Grand Hotel Suite" from April 17 to May 10. This will be an excellent stage for newcomers to showcase their talents, and you can apply for the opportunity to play a guest role without any lines.

Although this role has no lines, it allows you to experience the stage atmosphere up close, exchange ideas with many excellent actors, and accumulate valuable performance experience. In this process, you can fully observe and learn from the performance techniques of others, laying a solid foundation for your own acting career.

(Reward: Trust Bridge Talisman +1)

[Neutral draw, draw]

In the upcoming play "The Grand Hotel Suite," there are some characters with one or two lines, such as waiters, hotel staff, and wedding guests.

Getting these roles is no easy feat; you need to earn the director's trust through your own talent and performance to have any chance of securing one.

Although these roles don't have many lines, they can test your understanding of the character and your ability to express yourself instantly, providing a great opportunity to showcase your acting skills.

(Reward: Director's Trust Talisman +1)

[Winning the lottery, bad luck]

You can try applying for the important role of the groom in Act III of The Grand Hotel Suite, but your chances of getting the role are very slim.

Even if you don't end up playing the groom, you can still get a lot of training in the process, improving your acting skills and resilience.

……

At 4:50 AM

Zhang Qilin arrived at the rehearsal room, only to find it empty.

He quickly cleaned up and then went outside to fetch two kettles of hot water, placing them in the corner.

Then he walked to the window and started singing.

5:10

The door to the rehearsal room was pushed open, and Feng Yuanzheng walked in.

Zhang Qilin turned around and greeted him warmly:

Good morning, Teacher Feng.

Feng Yuanzheng smiled and nodded:

"You're here so early today, did you get a good night's rest?"

"I'm young, a few hours of sleep is enough," Zhang Qilin replied with a smile.

Feng Yuanzheng gently reminded him:

"It's good that young people are energetic, but don't put too much pressure on them."

Zhang Qilin smiled:

"After watching the teachers' performance last night, I realized that my skills are far behind, and I need to catch up quickly."

A look of approval flashed in Feng Yuanzheng's eyes.

He put down his belongings and said to Zhang Qilin:

"Learning can't be rushed. Besides practicing on your own, you also need to watch and study the performances of veteran actors on stage."

"I understand, teacher," Zhang Qilin nodded, then asked, "By the way, teacher, are there any new plays being staged at the academy recently?"
