HuaYu: Starting with Photography to Navigate the Entertainment Industry

Have a meal?

What should we eat?!

Don't sausages keep you full?

Without saying a word, Xu Lang pulled Zhu Zhu and turned directly into the hotel next door.

Seeing Xu Lang's enthusiasm and persistence, Zhu Zhu reluctantly agreed.

Moreover, the two had reached some kind of tacit understanding, or agreement, beforehand.

Now that the photos have been taken, the money has been made, and the magazine "Men's Health" has been accepted, it's time for Zhu Zhu to fulfill his promise.

Zhu Zhu's face remained red on the way to her room.

Xu Lang, however, acted like a seasoned veteran, checking into a hotel as if he were at home.

Once inside the elevator, Zhu Zhu couldn't help but ask:

"Xu Lang, you still say you're an innocent young man, but look at how you book a hotel room without batting an eye. You're obviously a pro."

"No way, this is my first time booking a hotel room in my entire life!"

Xu Lang's words couldn't be more true. He leaned closer to Zhu Zhu and whispered:

"Some things, some people are born with a talent. If you don't believe me, I'll show you in a bit."

"Talent?! Can this really be measured by talent?"

Zhu Zhu blushed, but she was also curious about what kind of talent Xu Lang was talking about.

Once inside the room, I thought Xu Lang would rush over eagerly.

As a result, Xu Lang calmly opened the camera bag.

"what?"

Seeing his action, Zhu Zhu became worried. "Xu Lang, you're not going to take pictures, are you? You don't have any unusual hobbies, do you?"

"Don't worry, I'm not Edison Chen!"

As Xu Lang spoke, he took out a small box of raincoats from his camera bag and waved it at Zhu Zhu, "This is what I was looking for."

"you..."

Zhu Zhu rolled her eyes. "You even brought this along, and you still have the nerve to say it's your first time?"

"You don't understand, carrying this is a professional habit."

When Xu Lang first started taking photos, an experienced photographer told him that he should always keep a few in his camera bag, as they would be very useful in critical moments.

It's both waterproof and safe when it rains.

He wasn't in a hurry; instead, he pulled Zhu Zhu into his arms and whispered in his ear:

"Let's look at that gaze from when we took those photos again. Yes, that defiant, resentful look, waiting to be conquered!"

Zhu Zhu wasn't one to spoil the fun; his eyes immediately became glazed and provocative, and he muttered to himself:

"Come on then... if you dare!"

"boom!"

This provocative voice completely enraged Xu Lang, who pounced on it.

Two hours later.

Zhu Zhu felt like her whole body was about to fall apart, but she was still stubborn and defiant. Her makeup and smudged lipstick really made her look like she did in the afternoon photo.

"Xu Lang, do you still have any guts? If you've got the guts, then you..."

Hearing Zhu Zhu's provocation, Xu Lang sneered inwardly.

"Luckily, we have the attribute points awarded by the system, otherwise, we really wouldn't be able to deal with you."

"what?"

Seeing Xu Lang rushing towards him again, Zhu Zhu panicked and tried to dodge.

But soon, Xu Lang grabbed her ankle and pulled her back.

"Hmph, I'll just throw all the attribute points I've accumulated these past few days at you!"

"what!"

Zhu Zhu let out a miserable scream and begged for mercy repeatedly.

But it's no longer useful.

You have to take responsibility for the trouble you caused!

It wasn't until after 10 p.m. that Xu Lang spoke to Zhu Zhu, who was unable to get up.

"Alright, I'll let you off the hook. Let's go for a big meal!"

Half an hour later, the two starving people finally left the hotel.

Zhu Zhu held Xu Lang's arm, her blush lingering, her mind still filled with images of Xu Lang charging into battle.

She looked at Xu Lang with seductive eyes and spoke softly.

"Xu Lang, how can you be so...perverted!"

"Ha ha!"

Xu Lang is now completely satisfied, especially after taking the "Come on, if you dare" photo of Zhu Zhu, which, as he himself said, was arousing the man's desire to conquer.

Now, Xu Lang's desire to conquer, which he had suppressed for half a day, was finally satisfied.

Midnight.

After finishing their late-night snack, Xu Lang and Zhu Zhu went back to their respective homes and mothers.

Back in his dorm, lying on his bed, Xu Lang felt a surge of exhilaration as he relived his passionate encounter with Zhu Zhu.

"This celebrity's aura is definitely different."

No, Zhu Zhu is far from being a star right now, and he will never reach the status of a top-tier star.

However, Zhu Zhu already possesses all the elements necessary for a female star to become famous.

Putting everything else aside, just in terms of physical condition alone, female celebrities are different from ordinary people.

From another perspective, only women with top-notch physical attributes have the potential to become actresses.

She's a stunning beauty.

"No wonder the rich and powerful like to play around with actresses; they really are something else!"

Contentment settled in his heart, and Xu Lang slowly drifted off to sleep.

The next day was Friday.

It was also the day Xu Lang and Qin Feifei went to Changsha.

At ten o'clock, after getting up, Xu Lang first sent a message to Qin Feifei.

"Sister Fei, one point, we'll meet at the domestic departure gate, is that alright?"

Qin Feifei quickly gave him an OK sign.

Afterwards, Xu Lang began to wash up and pack his things.

At midnight, while Jiang Wei and the others were returning to their dormitories, Xu Lang, carrying a small bag, walked out.

Watching Xu Lang's retreating figure, Jiang Wei and the other two were somewhat speechless.

"Look at them! They've got such a great education, and they even managed to travel to Changsha to watch the Super Girl finals! There's no comparison!"

"Ugh!"

Mao Jian and Zhang Yanbin were also filled with envy and jealousy.

Meanwhile, Xu Lang took a taxi and headed straight for the airport.

On the bus, he was thinking about what to do after arriving in Changsha.

Suddenly my phone vibrated; a message had been sent.

Xu Lang took out his phone and his face immediately lit up with interest:

Zhang Liangying!

The message read:

"Xu Lang, is that right?"

Hello, may I ask you if you will go to Changsha for the Super Girl finals?

If it's convenient for you, could I see you?

Looking at this cautiously sent text message, Xu Lang couldn't help but curse Feng Ke.

"Look what they've done to the child! They've lost all their self-confidence."

Without hesitation, Xu Lang replied directly:

"My flight is this afternoon, I should arrive this evening, and I'll be back in Beijing Sunday afternoon. You can contact me anytime during this period."

Soon, Zhang Liangying sent another text message.

"Very good.

However, I'm not sure when I'll have time yet. I'll try to let you know in advance, and I hope you won't find me annoying. Thank you in advance.

Don't worry, I will pay you all the fees that are due.

Also, please don't call me first, okay? I'm afraid Brother Feng will be angry if he sees it.

Please!

Upon seeing this, Xu Lang cursed Feng Ke in his mind again before replying to her.

"Okay, you don't need to be so reserved or cautious. Just relax."

"Okay, received. No need to reply."

Even after putting his phone away, Xu Lang was still thinking about Zhang Liangying.

"I didn't expect that this little pushover would go back to watch the game. I guess he's preparing for next year."

Actually, he knew without even asking why Zhang Liangying had contacted him.

"It's just a matter of image packaging!"

But while this may sound simple, it can have a fatal impact on an actor or singer.

Given the precedent of taking photos at the Music House and the successful experience of Zhang Hanyun's image management, hiring Xu Lang is arguably the best solution for Zhang Liangying to shed her rustic image.

As they drew closer, Xu Lang arrived at the domestic departure gate of the airport.

A short while later, Qin Feifei also got out of a taxi, pushing a small suitcase.

"Sister Fei, over here."

Xu Lang quickly went to greet her, and unusually gentlemanly took the suitcase from her hands, joking as he did so.

"Sister Fei, you're such a beauty, going out with me alone, aren't you afraid I'll kidnap you?"

"ha!"

Qin Feifei rolled her eyes at Xu Lang and said irritably:

"Xu Lang, I've figured it out. You're all talk. When it comes to getting serious, you're a total coward."

Needless to say, Qin Feifei was still "resentful" about what happened the night Xu Lang took the photos.

Hearing this, Xu Lang gave a wry smile, inwardly cursing himself, "Why did you bring this up again?"

As the two were walking inside, Xu Lang's phone rang.

When he picked up the phone, he was surprised to see it was Su Wan.

After answering the phone, Xu Lang asked:

"You Rong, what do you want?"

"Haha~!"

Before Su Wan could speak on the phone, a burst of excited laughter came through.

"Xu Lang, from the Condor Heroes production team, notified me to go for an audition, haha!"

"oh!"

Su Wan spoke loudly, and not only Xu Lang, but even Qin Feifei, who was standing next to her, heard it.

Xu Lang glanced at Qin Feifei, then happily said to Su Wan:

"That's great! When I get back from Changsha, I'll help you with your audition plans."

"Okay, when you come back, I'll have to thank you properly."

"Um."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Lang looked at Qin Feifei, who was looking at her phone.

"Sister Fei, have you received an audition notice from the Condor Heroes production team?"
