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

Chapter 90 It's hard to be a person, it's even harder to be a celebrity.

Zhao Liying was taken aback; she hadn't expected Zhang Qilin to agree so readily.

She then pulled out her phone with a look of surprise and waved it: "I'm flying to Hengdian early tomorrow morning. How about we exchange contact information first, and I'll contact you when I get back?"

Zhang Qilin smiled and gave his phone number to Zhao Liying.

In the situation just now, most girls would probably have screamed in terror on the bus.

This would disrupt his immersion in the role and seriously affect his state of mind and emotions in experiencing the character deeply.

Zhao Liying remained calm throughout, only speaking up to remind everyone after confirming that it was safe.

Although the time was short, he managed to grasp a bit of the feeling.

This will help him to further understand and interpret the role.

"Teacher Zhang, how are you? Are you alright?" Editor-in-Chief Zhou's voice came from not far away.

He looked up and saw Editor-in-Chief Zhou jogging towards him.

Director Zhao and a group of staff followed behind him, their steps hurried and their expressions anxious.

In a short while, Editor-in-Chief Zhou had rushed over.

The panic on her face hadn't faded yet, and her eyes scanned Zhang Qilin from head to toe: "Teacher Zhang, is anything bothering you? Should we go to the hospital for a checkup?"

Zhang Qilin indicated that he was fine: "Editor-in-Chief Zhou, I'm really okay. I just ran for a while and I'm still a little out of breath. Zhao Liying is fine too. Look, she's over there."

As he spoke, he pointed at Zhao Liying.

Editor-in-Chief Zhou then turned his gaze to Zhao Liying. Seeing that she was also safe and sound, his tense nerves relaxed a little.

She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright. What happened today was really unexpected. It's all our fault for not doing a good job with security."

Director Zhao and his staff arrived at that moment. Director Zhao said apologetically, "Teacher Zhang, I'm so sorry. I didn't expect this to happen. It almost put you and Liying in danger."

Zhang Qilin waved his hand: "Director Zhao, don't say that. Nobody expected fans to suddenly rush over. You can't blame them."

Editor-in-Chief Zhou looked at Zhang Qilin and asked, "Teacher Zhang, Liying, are you going back to rest and filming tomorrow, or are you resting here and continuing to film?"

Zhang Qilin said, "Let's take a break and continue filming. I have important rehearsals tomorrow and the day after, so I won't be able to come out. Liying just said she's going to Hengdian tomorrow."

Editor-in-Chief Zhou confirmed with the two of them several times that everything was alright before returning to the set to film.

Filming ended an hour later.

After spending this time together, plus the unexpected incident just now.

Zhang Qilin and Zhao Liying went from being complete strangers to being friends who can now share jokes.

Before saying goodbye, Zhao Liying came to Zhang Qilin's side, stood on tiptoe, and patted his shoulder.

She spoke earnestly in the tone of a senior, saying, "A handsome guy like you should protect yourself in the entertainment industry. I don't want to see any bad news about you in the news."

Zhang Qilin revealed a playful smile: "Have you forgotten something?"

"Forgot what?" Zhao Liying asked, looking puzzled.

"I'm at the Beijing People's Art Theatre, who can hurt me?"

Zhao Liying then remembered that Zhang Qilin was from the Beijing People's Art Theatre.

Even if someone covets him, as long as he stays at the Beijing People's Art Theatre, it will be difficult for them to harm him.

The two talked for several hours, and Zhang Qilin showed no airs of a popular star.

I subconsciously regarded him as one of the comrades who had fought alongside me, and couldn't help but say a few words when we parted.

Zhao Liying looked at him somewhat embarrassed.

The two then smiled at each other, and the awkwardness dissipated.

Zhao Liying waved to him and winked playfully: "When I get back from Hengdian, I'll come to the theater to see your performance."

After saying goodbye, Zhang Qilin took a car back to the courtyard.

Although I was physically tired, I felt exceptionally cheerful.

Today's filming experience was very rewarding for him, giving him a deeper understanding of the character.

5:20 a.m. the next day

Zhang Qilin entered the rehearsal hall.

After greeting Mr. Feng Yuanzheng, I was about to warm up my voice.

But then they heard Teacher Feng Yuanzheng's voice: "Qi Lin, come here for a moment."

Zhang Qilin approached and asked respectfully, "Teacher Feng, what's the matter?"

"Are you very familiar with the people in the 'Warring States' production team?" Feng Yuanzheng asked.

Zhang Qilin was taken aback, but quickly realized what was happening.

Could it be that the other party really came to the Beijing People's Art Theatre because of the thing Jing Tian reminded us about on the phone last time?

Zhang Qilin looked at Feng Yuanzheng and saw that Teacher Feng's expression was somewhat serious, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

So he told the truth: "I was classmates with Jing Tian from their film crew."

Did Jing Tian call you to tell you?

"I did say that."

"What's your attitude?"

Zhang Qilin didn't answer directly, but instead asked, "Teacher, doesn't the academy forbid us newcomers from taking on acting roles?"

Feng Yuanzheng said, "The academy would like to ask about your attitude."

He would avoid film crews that are rife with controversy like the plague, and he would absolutely never go there.

He answered earnestly, "Teacher, I will absolutely abide by the rules of the Beijing People's Art Theatre, and Jing Tian also told me that I don't need to force myself to go just because of her."

Feng Yuanzheng's serious expression softened a bit, and he nodded: "Go practice."

"6

Zhang Qilin turned around and ran to the window to sing.

He wondered why Teacher Feng had asked him about this.

9:30 AM

Deputy head teacher Wang Lei notified Zhang Qilin to go to Vice Dean Wang's office.

Zhang Qilin found it strange.

He was in the training class, so if there was anything, it should be Vice Dean Pu Cunxin, who was in charge of the students, who contacted him.

Why would Vice Dean Wang, who is in charge of administration, hire an intern like him?

With questions in mind, Zhang Qilin knocked on Vice Dean Wang's office door.

"Please come in."

Zhang Qilin pushed open the door and walked into the office.

He saw Vice President Wang sitting at his desk, looking at him with a kind expression.

"Vice Dean Wang, you wanted to see me?" Zhang Qilin asked respectfully.

Vice Dean Wang pointed to the chair opposite him: "Xiao Zhang, come on, have a seat."

After Zhang Qilin sat down, he continued, "I heard you've been doing well in the training class lately, and you're already able to deliver lines in the plays at the theater."

"It's all thanks to the excellent teaching of teachers Feng Yuanzheng and He Bing that I've been able to improve so quickly."

He didn't understand Vice President Wang's personality, so he could only respond with the safest answer.

Vice Dean Wang said with a smile, "The hospital is happy for you that you've made such rapid progress. Have you ever thought about going out and seeing the world?"

I remembered what Teacher Feng asked me this morning.

Zhang Qilin felt a chill run down his spine and immediately realized that what Vice Dean Wang meant by going out to broaden his horizons was probably related to the "Warring States" drama crew.

Has this production team already reached some kind of agreement with the leaders of the Beijing People's Art Theatre?

Thinking about this, he pretended to ponder it.

Concentrate your mind and calm your spirit in secret.

The Celestial Compass appeared before my eyes.

He silently wondered to himself, "What does 'Daily Divination,' Vice Dean Wang, mean?"

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

A jade divination stick flew out of the divination tube.

[Winning the lottery, bad luck]

Vice President Wang strongly advocated for the People's Art Theatre's actors to actively collaborate with external film and television resources to enhance the theatre's reputation and influence in the entertainment industry. (Rejecting Vice President Wang's request will result in: +1 Fragment of the Reincarnation of a Qingyi Character, +1 Substitute Talisman)

Upon seeing the fortune slip, he was startled.

Unfortunately, the information provided by the divination slip was too general; there must be many aspects involved.

However, the daily divination can only handle minor matters. Information involving the dynamics of various forces needs to be upgraded to a higher level to be able to perform divination.

All he knows now is what Vice President Wang is thinking.

Professor Feng Yuanzheng's question this morning now seems to be a reminder to him that this involves the Warring States period.

Since the dean and vice dean personally spoke with him, there must be controversy at the higher levels. Some people want to push him out, while others are protecting him.

Vice President Wang came to talk to him personally in order to persuade him.

If the divination slip indicates an ominous sign, it means that agreeing to it would be very disadvantageous for him.

Zhang Qilin silently weighed the situation in his mind; it was extremely difficult.

Refusing Vice President Wang's offer, while granting the reward promised in the official document, would inevitably offend this vice president in charge of administration.

This may hinder the future development of the Beijing People's Art Theatre.

If he agrees, he will join the cast of the TV series "The Warring States".

The film's reputation collapsed after its release.

He would end up like Jing Tian, ​​being blamed on by those old hands.

By then, no matter how many mouths he has, he won't be able to explain himself.

After a brief silence, Zhang Qilin looked up at Vice President Wang and said, "Vice President Wang, my studies and rehearsals at the Beijing People's Art Theatre are very demanding. I'm worried that participating in outside projects will distract me and affect the quality of the theatre's productions."

Vice Dean Wang's voice remained kind: "It's good that you have this idea, but collaborating with excellent external production teams can also give you newcomers more opportunities to hone your skills."

Zhang Qilin shook his head: "Vice Dean Wang, I am still lacking in ability. If I go out rashly, I may not be able to handle various situations. Not only will it embarrass the Beijing People's Art Theatre, but it will also delay my learning progress here. I want to study diligently here."

When Vice President Wang realized that the reputation of the Beijing People's Art Theatre was at stake, he knew that the conversation could not continue.

He smiled and nodded, his tone still gentle: "Xiao Zhang, don't be nervous. The academy won't force you to make any decisions. We just hope you'll consider it. Whatever your final decision is, the academy will support you."

Zhang Qilin nodded: "Okay, Vice Dean Wang, I will think it over carefully."

As Zhang Qilin left the office, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Vice President Wang's attitude appeared mild on the surface, but the meaning behind his words was quite clear.

Having offended Vice President Wang, he needs to be careful at the Beijing People's Art Theatre.

After this incident, he couldn't help but feel emotional.

It's hard to be a person, but it's even harder to be a celebrity.

As his fame gradually increased, various forces with a keen sense of smell, like sharks, began to linger around the Beijing People's Art Theatre, waiting for an opportunity to act.

At that moment, a message appeared before his eyes.

[Rewards: Luck Value +5, Qingyi Reincarnation Fragment +1, Substitute Talisman +1]

Although he received the reward, he couldn't feel happy.

The entertainment industry is a complex and treacherous arena of fame and fortune.

Although the Beijing People's Art Theatre is cleaner than the outside world, it cannot escape its entanglements with the entertainment industry.

Forget it.

Things will work themselves out; there's no use thinking about it now.

Let's take a look at the reward first.

He cleared his mind of all distractions, and his thoughts shifted.

A message appears before my eyes.
