Huayu: I was immediately ensnared by Jing Tian as soon as I entered the industry.

Wang Xuan hadn't left the office area when Wang Chunzi called him back.

"Teacher, is there something you need?"

"School starts soon, and you'll have to participate in the orientation."

At this moment, Wang Xuan wondered if he had misheard. He was, after all, a Berlin Film Festival Best Actor, a director from the billion-yuan club, and an outstanding student representative of the acting department. What was he going to welcome?

"Teacher, I also need to prepare for the film crew, and there are actor auditions..."

"It'll only take one day, it won't take up your time. There are also Chai Biyun and a few others from the 'Back to Youth' crew who will be there."

Wang Chunzi interrupted Wang Xuan's complaints, and after finishing her story, she turned and left.

Good grief, they're using their own grades as a measure of teaching quality. The 96 and 02 classes of the Beijing Film Academy are famously star-studded classes; some of them even starred in "Back to Youth," which gives it that star-studded feel.

Wang Xuan could accept cooperating for a day, taking advantage of the convenience provided by the department.

Upon returning to the company, Wang Xuan was informed by his assistant that he had received numerous inquiries, all asking about the casting and audition process.

With the male lead, Ge You, already confirmed, the talent agencies turned their attention to the female lead.

What the public is unaware of is that the female lead is required to be a girl around ten years old.

"The job requirements are on my computer. You can post them here. You can send me your resume first, and I'll pick through them. If they're suitable, I'll invite you."

Wang Xuan gave instructions to his assistant.

"Okay, boss."

The mess in North America, the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers, and the economic bubble instantly spread to the whole world.

This truly proves the saying: Americans are responsible for the food and drink, while the rest of the world foots the bill for their messy affairs.

Liu Tao, who married into a wealthy family and was preparing to be a devoted wife and mother, has recently become a laughing stock in the entertainment industry.

She complained to the media that her wealthy husband was bankrupt and in debt, and was also seriously ill... She even asked for job introductions on camera.

Many female celebrities in the industry marry into wealthy families, but it's rare for one to go bankrupt right after marriage, and many people are watching with amusement.

However, Liu Tao also has true friends. At a certain event, she and Qin Hailu kissed in public, creating a buzz.

Celebrities aren't afraid of lacking acting skills; they're afraid of not getting any attention.

In early September, before the official release of "The Equation of Love and Death," a screening was held at the school.

Given Wang Xuan's rising popularity as a student, and the fact that Tian Zhuangzhuang and Cao Baoping are close friends, they specially invited him to attend.

In the school auditorium, Wang Xuan met his biggest competitor for this year's Hundred Flowers Award.

Deng Chao was nominated for Best Actor for his role in "Assembly," a film with a patriotic theme, making him a strong contender for the award, second only to Wang Xuan, the Berlin Film Festival Best Actor winner.

But now, he's more than just an actor.

"Hello Director Wang, I am actor Deng Chao."

Deng Chao held Wang Xuan's hand excitedly: "I've watched 'Buried Alive' at least ten times. Your acting is amazing. It's no wonder you lost the Hundred Flowers Award."

"The results haven't been revealed yet, so don't try to kill me with your words."

Wang Xuan discovered an interesting phenomenon: the actors he met in the industry could be roughly divided into two categories.

One type is like Deng Chao, whose acting skills were captivating after watching "Buried Alive".

Most of these people are skilled actors.

The topic of conversation during our first meeting almost always involves this movie.

Another type is actors who value his directorial background and seek to collaborate with him.

"What are you two chatting about here, laughing so happily?"

Zhou Xunren is small in stature, but has a very outgoing personality and speaks in a hoarse voice.

"This must be the Berlin Film Festival Best Actor. I didn't expect him to be so handsome, to win awards for acting, and to have such high box office returns as a director."

Zhou Xun leaned closer and whispered, "Director Wang, the female lead for your new film hasn't been decided yet, right?"

Wang Xuan looked down at her. In her early days, Zhou Xun exuded a kind of charm, but now, she relied entirely on her acting skills.

"The female lead is a ten-year-old girl, do you think she can play the role?"

"Then I really can't."

Zhou Xun shook his head, took out a business card, and said in a familiar tone, "If there are any roles you can play, remember to contact me."

"Me too, I hope to work with Director Wong."

Deng Chao, who was standing next to him, also handed over his business card.

Wang Xuan looked at the two cards in his hand and nodded.

He's gotten used to this kind of scene ever since he achieved success with "Back to Youth".

Wang Xuan turned around and was startled by the person standing in front of him, who grinned, revealing a row of big white teeth.

"Director, I know martial arts. If you're making a kung fu movie, cast me."

With a "click," Wang Baoqiang did a split in front of Wang Xuan, the movement completed in one smooth motion.

The commotion drew the attention of everyone around, and Wang Xuan looked helpless.

"I've noted it down. I'll contact you if a suitable role comes along."

They say fools have good fortune. Wang Xuan doesn't know if Wang Baoqiang is lucky, but there are no fools who can make it to the top in the entertainment industry.

"The Equation of Love and Death" is a good movie. To put it simply, it's about a lovestruck female protagonist searching for her boyfriend who disappeared four years ago.

The lovestruck male protagonist, in order to provide his girlfriend with a stable life, chooses to take a tragic path.

In the film, both Zhou Xun and Deng Chao delivered award-winning performances.

On the 3rd, new students enrolled at Beijing Film Academy.

Standing under the blazing sun, Wang Xuan looked like a giant panda, surrounded by a group of new students.

As the face of the Beijing Film Academy students, the first thing these younger students would think of when they received their acceptance letters is how to get to know Wang Xuan and build a closer relationship with him.

Who would have thought that a Berlin Film Festival Best Actor and a director with a net worth of over 100 million yuan would be welcoming new students at the school gate?

Wang Xuan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said helplessly, "I only have one QQ account, and it's already full."

"Senior, delete one and add me back," a junior who considered herself somewhat attractive said coquettishly.

"Who should I delete? That junior from earlier?"

"No, you can't delete me."

A female student who looked somewhat familiar squeezed through the crowd, glaring at the girl who had just spoken.

Of the 08 acting class, very few made it big; Dou Xiao was one of the few who was somewhat recognizable.

This year, the department originally wanted to recommend Wang Xuan for the outstanding student speech, after all, with such a good result in "Return to Youth", he had to show it off.

But he refused, not knowing what to say, and besides, he also had to give others a chance to shine.

On the first day of school, Wang Xuan left the school.

No matter which circle you're in, it's all about personal connections and relationships.

The company has received quite a few resumes these past few days. In the section for the little girl's guardian, some listed her as the child of a certain director, or the niece of a certain photographer...

The competition between the male lead's friend and the kindergarten director, who has a significant role, is equally fierce.

During this time, Wang Xuan received dinner invitations from Hua Yi and Wang Jinhua. Neither of them were easy to deal with, so he declined them directly.

Since Ge You has been cast as the male lead, the supporting cast can't be lacking either; Wang Xuan wants everyone to be a top-notch actor.

The assistant walked into the office carrying a handful of resumes, probably over a hundred.

"Boss, these are all the paper copies that were delivered, as well as the ones sent by email. You can check them in your inbox."

"Okay, I understand."

In the office, the only sound was Wang Xuan turning pages. He saw the names and faces of many supporting actors.

As for the resume sent via email, he didn't plan to open it.

Whether someone values ​​a role can be seen from the details.
