The entertainment industry: My 99 future timelines!

On the last day of the twenty-day training camp, the youth training camp was about to end.

In the classroom, Professor Zhou arranged a final little game.

"Everyone, we're about to say goodbye. I'm sure you all have a lot of feelings and things to say during these 20 days. Today, let's play a little game one last time."

"There are 13 people inside, and here are 13 small slips of paper. Here, everyone take one."

Professor Zhou stood at the classroom podium, a smile on his face, holding a stack of small slips of paper in his hand. He distributed these slips to the students as he spoke.

The crowd was somewhat surprised by Professor Zhou's final game arrangement. They had thought that Professor Zhou would say something touching during the last moments, but this was all.

However, everyone still did as instructed, and after twenty days of intensive training, Jing Tian, ​​Hao Shaowen, and others were indeed brought to resemble students.

Seeing that Jing Tian and the others each had a small note in their hands, Professor Zhou smiled and said:

"Now, everyone, please write a sentence anonymously for the person of the opposite sex you have the most interest in during the training camp."

"It can be gratitude, it can be appreciation, it can be anything, but you have to write it down, fold it up, and put it in this little box in front of me."

These words immediately sparked a commotion in the venue.

"Wow—"

"Professor Zhou, are you going to go this far?"

"If people find out..."

"Anonymous, anonymous!"

Professor Zhou emphasized, "And as I said, it doesn't necessarily have to be that kind of affection. It could be 'Thank you for helping me with the problem yesterday,' or 'You look really cool playing ball.' Anything is fine, the key is to be genuine."

The young actors looked at each other, some smirking, some blushing, and some looking down as if deep in thought.

Li Xu also received a note.

He thought for a moment, picked up his pen and wrote a line of words, then folded it and put it into the cardboard box.

After everyone finished writing, Professor Zhou shook the box and then took them out one by one to read aloud.

"First note: Thank you, Li Xu, for lending me your eraser, even though you forgot to return it later."

"Hahaha, who's so stingy?" Everyone laughed, but Song Tie remained silent.

"Second picture: Song Tie, the way you sang off-key yesterday was funny, but also quite cute."

"Who's off-key? I was just being emotional!" Song Tie said in a "furious" tone, while Hao Shaowen lowered his head.

"Third picture: Zhang Ruoyun, I hope you won't fail your acting exams like you failed math in the future."

"What's going on here..." Zhang Ruoyun blushed, while the others made a fuss.

Thirteen slips of paper were read aloud one by one.

Most of them were teasing, friendly, and carried the shyness and humor unique to adolescence.

It wasn't until Professor Zhou read the eighth page that things finally started to look a little different.

Professor Zhou looked at the note, paused for a moment, a hint of knowing amusement in his eyes, and began to speak in a measured tone:

"Eighth picture: Jing Tian, ​​your profile when you're writing on the test paper is prettier than math formulas."

The venue fell silent for a moment.

Then an even louder commotion erupted.

"Wow--"

"Who is this? They're such a good writer!"

"Her profile? Who in our classroom can see her profile?"

"There's plenty more to see, but it's right next to us..."

The last sentence was spoken by Zhang Ruoyun. As soon as he said it, everyone's eyes immediately turned to Li Xu and Jing Tian.

Jing Tian's face flushed red instantly.

She wasn't a shy person, but being watched by everyone, especially her classmates, made her feel a little embarrassed.

Li Xu remained calm and composed, so calm that even those who had initially been making a fuss in the class began to have doubts. Could it really not have been written by him?

"Keep going, keep going."

Professor Zhou smiled and shook his head, then drew out another card.

"Eighth picture: Cao Jun, the way you play basketball reminds me of my high school deskmate."

"Ninth picture: Song Tie, thank you for the band-aid."

"The tenth one..."

After the notes were read aloud, the biggest suspense was who wrote the seventh one.

But Professor Zhou didn't reveal the answer, only saying, "The purpose of this game is to let you experience that secret, unspoken feeling of affection."

"Adolescent crushes are often like this—hidden in the eraser you lend out, in the profile of someone explaining a problem, in the water you dare not hand out."

"Remember this feeling, and use it when filming."

After class, everyone else left, waiting to pack their bags and leave the training camp.

Jing Tian lingered at the back, waiting until everyone had left. She smiled and walked up to Professor Zhou, unable to contain her curiosity any longer, and asked, "Professor Zhou, who wrote the eighth page...?"

Professor Zhou glanced at her and smiled: "Didn't we say it would be anonymous? And if you really guess who it is, you can go ask him."

"I'm just... curious, and asking would just ruin the fun."

Curiosity killed the cat.

Professor Zhou packed his things. "And who do you hope wrote it?"

Jing Tian fell silent, her gaze fixed on the old professor before her, thinking to herself, "This old man, at his advanced age, is still trying to amuse people?"

Professor Zhou saw that Jing Tian remained silent, smiled, turned and left, leaving behind only one sentence:

"No matter who wrote it, remember this feeling; it will be very helpful for you when you play Shen Jiayi in the filming next."

Jing Tian paused for a moment, then nodded: "Thank you, teacher, I'll remember."

But deep down, a small, irrepressible expectation lingered in her heart, and she couldn't help but send Li Xu a message: "Did you really write this?"

December 2008, 2.

After a day of intensive training, Hao Shaowen had just woken up in his rented room in Beijing, ready to start filming.

After getting up, he was browsing Tianya Forum on his laptop when he accidentally saw an entertainment news article. He jumped out of bed and almost smashed the laptop.

"Holy crap?"

"How could this happen in just one day?"

On the entertainment section of Tianya Forum, a news article was prominently reposted.

The accompanying image consists of three blurry photos.

One of the photos shows Liu Yifei's car parked at the entrance of the training base.

There's another picture of her getting off the bus wearing a hat and mask, carrying several large bags.

The last picture is a profile of her and Li Xu talking at the entrance of the base. The two are very close together and look quite intimate.

News headline: Liu Yifei suspected of having a romantic relationship with junior student Li Xusheng, embroiled in a love triangle!

News content: "Yesterday, our reporter photographed Liu Yifei at the 'Those Years' training base in Beijing, seemingly picking up Li Xu who had just finished training."

"It is understood that Liu Yifei is one of the investors in this drama, and there were previous rumors that Liu Yifei and director Li Xu had a close relationship. Does this visit to the set confirm their romance? In addition, Jing Tian also has a close relationship with director Li Xu. I wonder what she thinks about this? This love triangle is complicated and mysterious. This newspaper will continue to follow up and report..."

"What on earth is going on?" Hao Shaowen was dumbfounded.

He quickly scrolled through the comments on Tianya Forum under this news article.

"Liu Yifei and Li Xu are such a perfect match, a talented man and a beautiful woman."

"It was clearly Liu Yifei who invested in Li Xu first, which made him famous. Jing Tian is the other woman, isn't she? She knew they were a couple, yet she still clung to him?"

"Li Xu is a scumbag, he's two-timing..."

Hao Shaowen swallowed hard as he looked at the comments. He recalled the sweet moments between Jing Tian and Li Xu at the training base and felt as if he had stumbled upon some juicy gossip.

"This situation won't affect the upcoming filming, will it?"

"Director Li, be careful, don't let things go wrong and the movie can't be made. I'm really looking forward to this film...!"
