Synopsis A: Shen Kong woke up and found himself transmigrated into a book, becoming a free laborer correcting the villain's morality.
Not only is there no pay, no household registration, ...
Countless guesses flashed through Shen Kong's mind, but he calmly concealed them under his drooping eyelashes.
He raised his head with a look of trepidation and said timidly: "But, but I don't know Senior Ye at all, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me..."
Before he finished speaking, the middle-aged man sitting opposite him interrupted him impatiently:
"Of course I don't want you to be exactly like him, otherwise the purpose would be too obvious."
Shen Kong nodded in confusion, then mustered up the courage to speak: "Then...then can you tell me something about their past, so that I can at least understand a little more and try not to make him suspicious..."
But, unexpectedly, the middle-aged man shook his head:
"I'm afraid we can't help you with this, because there is very little information about Han Li before he went abroad, and we don't really understand the situation back then."
Then, he raised his chin towards the folder in front of Shen Kong and added:
"All the information you need to know is in there. You can take a look now."
Chen Kong paused, then reached out and picked up the folder. The information in his hand was very thin and light, and he could hardly feel its weight.
He flipped open the top photo and quickly scanned the information below it.
On black and white paper, Han Li's twenty years of life were condensed into a few short lines - from the much-anticipated heir of the Han family, to the abandoned son of the Han family who was abandoned because of disability, and then to a business genius who returned to the country with an intimidating resume. Shen Kong couldn't help but feel mixed emotions, a complex emotion as if he was watching his own child grow up, and the time he had experienced before seemed to be vivid in his mind.
However, while sighing, Shen Kong also keenly discovered the clues:
In the original plot, Han Li was sent abroad because his housekeeper's death caused him to become extreme in character, so he bit off the fingers of a bully and dug out the eyes of the leader.
However, with Shen Kong's intervention, although it cannot be guaranteed that Han Li can fight ten people alone in a fight, it is more than enough to deal with several high school students. Although Shen Kong left the world at the time of the critical car accident that affected Han Li's fate, he confirmed that the butler was not dead before he lost consciousness.
Then...what was the opportunity that led Han Li to go abroad?
It’s not written in the information.
There wasn't even a single word about Han Li's high school life, as if... it had been deliberately deleted from the files.
However, what Chen Kong didn't know was whether his current employer was unable to find the information during this period, or was unwilling to disclose it to him?
He hid his doubts in his heart, closed the file in his hand, and looked up at the middle-aged man sitting across the table.
Jiang Chenkong had finished reading the file when the other party threw another folder to him.
Shen Kong opened the folder.
What was inside was actually a TV drama script called "Guiyuan Tower".
The middle-aged man explained, "This is the script that Han Li invested in recently. He will also appear during the audition. I hope you can grasp it well. The role you are auditioning for is Male No. 6, but the part you have is not that big. The interview will be held next Tuesday. However, there are many people in charge of this play. In addition to arranging you for the interview, we can't expand our influence on this play. If you can't get this role, I'm afraid there's nothing we can do."
After a slap in the face, you should always give a sweet date. The man softened his voice and comforted:
"But don't be too nervous. This role is basically the same as the character of Ye Jinghuan's first play when he entered the entertainment industry. You should try to figure out his demeanor. Then we can exert our influence as much as possible. The chances are still great."
Shen Kong put away the script, nodded gratefully, and said incoherently: "Thank you, thank you. I will definitely seize the opportunity and will not let you down."
The middle-aged man nodded, then waved his hand casually, indicating that Shen Kong could go.
Shen Kong stood up from the chair with the two documents in his hand. He just took two steps and seemed to suddenly remember something. He turned his head to look at him and said a little embarrassedly:
"By the way, what's your name?"
The middle-aged man hesitated for a second, and finally answered Shen Kong’s question: “My last name is Tang, you can just call me Brother Tang.”
Shen Kong returned home and simply flipped through the script for the audition he was about to perform.
It is adapted from a big IP and tells the story of an imaginary dynasty that is about to collapse, the domestic power struggles and the fate of many characters who are either eager for power, fame and fortune, or swept away by the trend of the times. It has a grand conception, many characters, and a complex and heavy plot. Even from the script in front of us, we can see how much each company values it.
The director's name was Pei Xiuran. Shen Kong checked and found out that he was a famous genius director internationally. The movies he directed were generally both well-received and box office hits. However, he was also internationally famous for his pickiness about scripts and actors. It was said that there was a rumor that a popular young actress was scolded and cried, which spread from his crew.
Fortunately, the male No. 6 that Chen Kong is competing for this time does not have a large role in the entire script, so at least there is still a glimmer of hope.
The name of this character is Ji Anyi. He is the second son of the left prime minister of the current dynasty. He comes from a noble family, likes to read poetry and books, is polite and naive. He and the male protagonist once made friends through poetry and literature, and they appreciated each other. But when Ji Anyi was traveling outside, the left prime minister was sentenced to death by the crazy and tyrannical emperor on the charge of treason.
In pain and despair, Ji Anyi turned to the rebels led by the male protagonist, but was tortured every day by the constraints of the ethical principles of heaven, earth, emperor, parents and teachers. Until she met the heroine, she finally had new expectations for the future. However, when she learned of the hero's love for the heroine, she sadly withdrew. In the following ambush, Ji Anyi was shot to death by arrows in order to protect the heroine.
In short, the character is tragic and his personality attracts fans, but his plot line is the simplest among all the other characters in the movie.
The challenge is not very great.
Shen Kong stood up, stretched, and then put away the folders on the table.
At this moment, the photo that was sandwiched in the file slipped out of the folder and fell to the ground.
Shen Kong paused, then bent down and picked up the photo.
Han Li, who had lost his boyish innocence, was frozen in the thin photo paper, looking back quietly.
At this moment, Shen Kong suddenly realized that something seemed wrong in the photo. He moved the photo a little closer and observed it carefully.
The fingertips gently slid across the smooth surface of the photo and stopped on the cane held in Han Li's hand.
The surface of the cane is black and shiny, with delicate and irregular wood grain all over it. At the junction of the top and the body of the cane, there is an extremely subtle small flaw, as if it is just the outline of a protruding shadow under the knuckle.
Shen Kong frowned, looking solemn and gloomy.
If he was not mistaken... this should be a hidden mechanism. The staff is hollow and can hold weapons inside. The inside is covered with special materials and cannot be detected by ordinary means. It was once very popular among mercenaries and killers until it disappeared in recent years due to the loss of concealment.
Why does Han Li have this?
How dangerous is his current situation that he has to carry weapons with him for self-defense... ?
Shen Kong didn't know the answer.
The only thing he knew was that meeting Han Li as soon as possible had become the top priority. After all, only by knowing the plot at this point in time could he decide what to do next.
Shen Kong sighed and reopened the script.
——The most urgent task now is to pass the audition and get this ghost role, so as to ensure basic contact with the mission target.
The audition day soon arrived.
In view of Chen Kong's current status, Chai Zhi drove him to the audition place specially. He was smiling from beginning to end and worked hard as if he was just his exclusive driver.
Shen Kong got out of the car and looked up at the glass building that towered into the sky in front of him.
The dazzling sunlight reflects thousands of dazzling rays on the smooth mirrored walls, which looks magnificent and full of design sense.
He walked in according to the address marked on the materials and quickly arrived at the audition location via the direct elevator.
Although there is less than half an hour left before the official start, many actors are already waiting at the door.
Although Chen Kong was not familiar with the current state of the entertainment industry in this book, he had gained some understanding through the crazy intensive study in the past few days. Among the actors waiting outside the door like him, he also recognized many familiar faces that he had seen many times in the past few days - in short, they were completely not on the same level as him, a fuzzy actor who had only acted in online dramas.
Just as he was lost in thought, a voice behind him called out to him:
"...Meng Mingxuan? You're here for the audition too."
Shen Kong turned his head and looked in the direction where the voice came from, only to see a tall and handsome man looking at him in surprise.
The man had a handsome and clear face, with fluffy light brown curly hair combed into a fashionable style. He seemed to be the type of pretty boy that was popular nowadays.
Shen Kong searched his memory for a minute before he remembered that he had seen his press release online before.
The person in front of him is called Qi Yi, and he seems to be one of the most popular young actors recently. Both his resources and treatment are very different from the original owner.
But... now it seems that he knows the original owner?
Chen Kong calmly withdrew his gaze, and skillfully put on the smile that belonged to the original owner:
"yes……"
Before he could finish his words, Qi Yi's sudden action interrupted him. He suddenly took a step forward and reached out to the script in Shen Kong's arms.
Shen Kong frowned imperceptibly.
Qi Yi leaned over and glanced at the script in his hand. When he looked up again, there was a hint of hidden hostility in his eyes:
"Ah, so you're here to interview Ji Anyi as well. What a coincidence. Me too."
Before Shen Kong could answer, Qi Yi's face was filled with a big smile again, familiar and friendly as if they had been close friends for a long time:
"I didn't expect that. You've had good luck recently. It seems that the previous movie 'The Prince's Love and the Concubine' was well made. I believe that with your acting skills, you will have no problem getting the role in 'Guiyuan Tower'!"
Shen Kong couldn't help but raise his eyebrows with some interest - Qi Yi's words were obviously mocking him for being an online drama actor with no qualifications and representative works. The following sentence "It's no problem to get the role" could be summarized as an inappropriate blessing when used in movies directed by other directors, but in Pei Xiuran's movie, this sentence was simply a blatant rebuke of him for taking the back door, and even if he really got the role, it would not be a clean win.
It seems that Qi Yi and the original owner don’t have a very good relationship.
A flattered smile suddenly appeared on his face. He looked at Qi Yi with a feeling of being touched and grateful. He took a step forward and grasped his hand, as if he had not heard the sting in his words at all:
"Really? Thank you so much, I didn't know you had so much confidence in me! I also believe in your level and acting skills! You will definitely be able to get the role you want!"
Qi Yi was startled by Shen Kong's sudden action and couldn't help but take a step back, with the intimate smile just now frozen on his face.
The original hidden meaning was misinterpreted by the other party as a blessing and then thrown back at himself.
Qi Yi now has no idea whether the other party is really stupid or just pretending to be stupid.
Just then, a woman in a suit and skirt pushed open the door, holding a large stack of documents in her hands, and walked in with quick steps.
The interview is about to begin.
Qi Yi took the opportunity to pull his hand out of the other person's hand, said a few simple perfunctory words somewhat unnaturally, and then quickly retreated to his seat.
Shen Kong sat down contentedly and began to flip through the script in his hand.
He is not a professional actor, let alone any acting skills.
It was completely beyond his ability to create a complete and vivid character based on the text in the script, but Chen Kong was very good at imitation. After all, his previous job required him to be able to integrate into different environments at any time. Fortunately, his new employer gave him a reference to imitate, so Chen Kong only needed to get as close to Ye Jinghuan as possible.
After returning home that day, Chen Kong found the play that made Ye Jinghuan famous on the Internet. Although Ye Jinghuan had just entered the entertainment industry and was still relatively green, he had great acting talent and played the role of a young master from a scholarly family who was ignorant of the world vividly. He was indeed worthy of being one of the protagonists of this book.
As time passed, the number of actors waiting for auditions in the room gradually decreased, and finally, Meng Mingxuan's name was called.
Shen Kong stood up and walked towards the room inside.
The audition room was smaller than the waiting area outside. There were six seats behind a long solid wooden table, but only four people were sitting there.
Shen Kong's gaze lingered on the nameplate on the table for a moment before he retracted his gaze.
Pei Xiuran and Han Li were not here.
——It’s actually not a bad thing for him.
After all, Chen Kong is not a professional actor, and the possibility of being exposed in front of a professional director is too high. As long as he joins the crew, he can create an opportunity to look Han Li in the eye.
Shen Kong felt relieved and began to perform according to the instructions of one of the ladies.
The plot of this section is that after losing her father, Ji Anyi goes to join the rebel army where the male protagonist is.
However, just a few seconds after he started, he heard the door behind him being pushed open with great force, a whirring wind rushed in instantly, and clear footsteps came from far away -
The lady who had just spoken to Shen Kong stood up with an angry yet intimate smile on her face:
"How long has the audition started? Why are you here just now?"
The author has something to say: Hehehe, see you in the next chapter
