HuaYu: Starting with Photography to Navigate the Entertainment Industry

Staring at Qin Feifei's face, Xu Lang couldn't help but feel a little distracted, further solidifying his previous feelings for her.

"How can such a beauty be hidden away in this administrative office? We must find a way to discover her and showcase her beauty."

Upon hearing Qin Feifei's question, a smile curved his lips, and he lied:

"Sister Fei, I've given this photo a title that reflects my thoughts: 'Self-Admiration'!"

"Self-admiration?"

"right!"

Xu Lang pointed at Qin Feifei in the camera and started his deception again:

"Sister Fei, in the photo, there is pride in your eyes, but also resentment. I have a feeling that your beauty has not been fully explored and shown. It seems that you are deliberately hiding it, afraid of being discovered, yet afraid that others will not discover it. There is a contradiction."

As Xu Lang spoke, he kept shaking his head, sometimes affirming and sometimes denying, "No, that's not right. I feel it's very vague, indistinct, but I can't quite grasp it."

At this moment, Xu Lang was like a fortune teller on the street, speaking in a roundabout way, revolving around the theme of "anyway, you are beautiful".

Fortune tellers' rhetoric is absolutely the essence of deceiving people!

No matter what he says, it sounds like he's talking about you.

Sure enough, while Xu Lang was "struggling," Qin Feifei felt as if an 8-magnitude earthquake had struck her heart; her entire being was in turmoil and she was deeply shaken.

A beauty of her caliber, with a background in acting, ended up as a counselor in the photography department at the Beijing Film Academy, a place full of opportunities.

The story behind this... sigh...

Xu Lang's words brought back Qin Feifei's past memories, making her feel sad whenever she thought about them.

She looked at Xu Lang, her eyes filled with surprise. "Self-admiration, isn't that me? How can this person's intuition be so sharp?"

Qin Feifei felt that Xu Lang truly understood her.

At that moment, she felt as if Xu Lang's gaze could see through her clothes, seeing her clearly and leaving her nowhere to hide.

Taking a deep breath, Qin Feifei interrupted Xu Lang.

"Alright, stop talking nonsense."

I gave the camera back to her, and she wrote down a QQ number on a piece of paper.

"Send me this photo later. Also, I can let you be the photographer for the military training, but I have one condition."

"Sister Fei, what is it?"

"Well... if there's a chance in the future, I'd like to ask you to take a set of photos for me."

"no problem."

Xu Lang patted his chest and guaranteed, "Sister Fei, as long as you're relaxed, I guarantee I'll film you so badly that any man would get a nosebleed."

"What nonsense are you spouting!"

Qin Feifei glared at Xu Lang, her face flushing slightly, and quickly changed the subject:

"By the way, tell me, how do you plan to shoot this time with the military photographer?"

"Sister Fei, I've already made up my mind!"

Xu Lang pulled up a chair and sat down opposite Qin Feifei.

"I've given this photoshoot a theme: 'Women Are Just as Valiant as Men!'"

"Hmm? Why this theme?"

"Think about it, whether it's in the military or during military training, it's mostly men who show their masculinity and strength. But in our school, there are more girls, so I wanted to do the opposite and specifically film the girls during military training to show their heroic side."

As Xu Lang spoke, he pointed to the bulletin board on the road outside the window.

"Sister Fei, I'm also planning to create a special 'Women Are Just as Great as Men' column on all the bulletin boards and our school's BBS forum during military training, to post the photos I've taken and fully showcase the spirit of our students. What do you think?"

Xu Lang's words sounded grand and dignified, but deep down he only had one thought:

"How could I miss such a great opportunity to photograph beautiful women?"

Qin Feifei had no idea about Xu Lang's "dirty" thoughts. After listening, her eyes lit up.

"Great idea! Go ahead and do it. I'll take care of the bulletin board and the column on the BBS."

"Sister Fei, you're so kind! Just for this, I'll give you another free photo opportunity!"

Xu Lang longed for as many opportunities as possible, but he was afraid that if he talked too much, he would scare Qin Feifei away.

However, he wasn't worried.

"If you're someone who cares about your appearance, once I take your picture, I don't believe you can escape."

In this vast world, what woman doesn't love beauty?!

Moreover, women dress up for those who appreciate them.

Sometimes, even if beautiful women don't want to take photos themselves, they will do so for someone, for something, for an opportunity, or even for money, to take beautiful photo albums and sexy private photos.

At that point, it won't be a question of whether she wants to or not.

Xu Lang was in an exceptionally good mood as he left Qin Feifei's office.

Back in the dormitory, I saw the other three animals trying on their training uniforms, muttering complaints:

"Two weeks of military training, just thinking about it is painful!"

"Yes, I'm covered in sweat every day, exhausted like a dead dog, it's so hard."

"I hate standing at attention the most. Being under the sun for half an hour without being allowed to move is torture."

Seeing Xu Lang return, the three of them asked curiously, "Xu Lang, what's all this mystery about you? Where have you been?"

"Ha ha!"

Xu Lang lay down on the bed, his head resting on his arm, his feet dangling over the edge, feeling comfortable and at ease.

"I've gone to great lengths to get you guys some benefits."

Upon hearing about the benefits, all three of them lit up, eager to come over.

What kind of benefits?

Are there any beautiful women here?

"Hey, third brother, hurry up and tell me!"

In a man's dictionary, "welfare" has only one meaning:

Beauty!

Xu Lang took out a work ID from his pocket and handed it to the other three.

"A military photographer?"

"Holy crap, third brother, do you mean we don't have to do military training?"

"Third Brother, this is so comfortable!"

The envy, jealousy, and resentment in the three people's tone made Xu Lang particularly pleased.

What was that saying again?

Happiness comes from comparison.

Xu Lang, whose happiness level was originally only 70, saw it skyrocket to 120 after being surrounded by the three of them—it was off the charts!

"Awesome!"

Seeing that Xu Lang was still keeping him in suspense, Jiang Wei became anxious, shaking his arm and urging him to ask:

"Third brother, where's the beauty you were talking about?"

Xu Lang turned slightly to the side and said to the three people:

"This time, I'm here on orders to photograph beautiful girls. This year, especially the performing arts students, just tell me who you want to see, and I promise I'll photograph every single hair on her head."

"Holy crap, these benefits are amazing!"

"Please let us see it first when you get back."

"Third brother, stop slapping my face. Do you understand what I mean?!"

Xu Lang is a seasoned veteran; how could he not understand what Jiang Wei meant?

He became interested, sat up, and said to the three of them:

"Then you can hold a contest to see who has the biggest breasts and who has the nicest butt, and you can rank them in order."

"Haha, that's a great idea, I love it!"

In an instant, the air inside dormitory 302 was thick with lustful thoughts, and hormone levels soared.

There's a sow passing by right outside the door; she's probably pregnant with several piglets!

"Third brother, you're a true friend! Our happiness depends on you. Come on, let's treat you to a drink!"

Like most male dormitories, the four guys in room 302 went out drinking on the very first day they met.

It's 11:30 p.m.

Just before the school gates closed, the four of them staggered back to their dormitory.

Lying in bed, Xu Lang felt dizzy and lightheaded; the feeling was wonderful and comfortable.

"Da da da!"

A knocking sound came from Xu Lang's pocket.

I took out my phone and saw that the speaker icon on QQ was flashing non-stop.

I rubbed my eyes, clicked on the link, and saw a girl's profile picture requesting to add me as a friend. Her note read:

Su Wan.

"Oh, I almost forgot about this little beauty!"

Xu Lang accepted the friend request, and soon the other party sent a message:

"Xu Lang, you haven't sent me my photo yet."

"I remember, the photo file is too big, I'll find a computer to send it to you tomorrow."

"good!"

Xu Lang had no interest in replying to such meaningless remarks, and besides, he was feeling a bit sleepy after drinking.

I had just put down my phone and was about to doze off when QQ notifications rang again.

Still Su Wan:

"Xu Lang, let me ask you something, do you know how to take portrait photos?"

Instantly, Xu Lang's drowsiness vanished, and a surge of secret pleasure filled him:

"Could it be that business is about to pick up? Seriously, a beautiful student like Su Wan, if we could mutually waive fees, that would be a real bargain!"
