Orphan Jiang He, longing for family affection, is reborn into a parallel world. At five years old, to protect his sister, he is kidnapped by human traffickers.
One month after the kidnapping,...
To avoid attracting attention, Jiang He has never openly shown her face since becoming famous.
I have to be fully armed every time I go out.
This time was no exception. To protect her privacy, Jiang He wore a baseball cap and a mask to the appointment.
Considering Yu Ran's character, in order to better fit the role.
Jiang He wasn't dressed formally, but rather in a simple beige sweater and blue jeans.
Jiang He has now grown to 178 cm tall, with long legs and a thin layer of muscle. He looks slim in clothes but muscular when undressed.
Even a simple sweater and jeans look exceptionally stylish on Jiang He.
Just by looking at his back, you could tell he's a handsome guy.
When they arrived at the agreed-upon private room, Jiang He took off her hat and mask, and her stunning beauty instantly amazed Qi Shu.
Almost without hesitation, he finalized the cooperation with Jiang He.
"Jiang He, filming will begin on the 19th of this month at Hengdian World Studios. Your role isn't very big, and if all goes well, it should be finished in about two weeks."
"Try to arrange your time well, and read the script before filming starts. If possible, hire an acting coach to learn from them, which will make filming easier."
"Of course, it's just a suggestion, it's up to you to decide, haha..."
Qi Shu was exceptionally polite.
Although Jiang He is a newcomer to acting, she is a crossover from other fields.
However, in the music industry, Jiang He is definitely the hottest rising star, currently enjoying the peak of her popularity.
In the past, very few of the artists he worked with didn't act like divas.
He wasn't sure Jiang He would agree; it was just a casual suggestion. He had previously worked with a boy band idol who had returned from South Korea, and people said his acting was terrible—that was an understatement.
Because he has absolutely no acting skills.
When he acts, his facial features fly wildly, and he roars in all sorts of ways, which is quite an eyesore, but he has a good opinion of himself and thinks he is very handsome.
Don't care what he thinks; just think what you think. You won't listen to any advice.
Jiang He has more fans than he does.
Therefore, Qi Shu had long been mentally prepared for Jiang He to be difficult to get along with.
Unexpectedly, Jiang He actually nodded in agreement and even sincerely asked him to recommend a performance teacher.
Firstly, Jiang He felt that he really needed a professional teacher to guide him.
Secondly, it was also to pave the way for his own cheat code.
With the system around, his popularity score is now over 30 million. It's safe to say that if he wanted to, he could exchange for any acting skills or abilities.
Qi Shu was incredibly moved; it was the first time he had ever met an artist as humble and easy to get along with as Jiang He.
He immediately agreed.
"No problem, no problem, I'll take care of it."
That evening, Qi Shu immediately contacted his friend Lao Zhuang.
Lao Zhuang is an alumnus of his film academy, a professionally trained actor with top-notch acting skills.
However, due to his average to above-average appearance, in an era where handsome men and beautiful women abound and looks outweigh acting skills, he hasn't been able to land any important roles.
Most of the time, he plays supporting roles in various film and television productions.
Later, I realized that this couldn't go on forever, so I went back to school to study. I used my years of hard work and my friends' connections to open a studio, where I do teaching, training, and acting coaching.
He has both ability and connections, and he's doing very well in this industry.
In the past, if Qi Shu thought a promising new talent was not from a professional acting background, he would introduce them to him for training and instruction.
I wouldn't say they'll undergo a complete transformation, but at least they should be able to meet the basic requirements in terms of common sense, positioning, acting, posture, and so on.
As for acting skills, that really depends on individual talent.
"Hey, Lao Zhuang, let me introduce you to someone. You know Jiang He, right? The singer who sang 'Blue and White Porcelain'?"
"I'm planning to cast him as the second male lead in my new drama. I'd like you to train him for two weeks. What do you think?"
Qi Shu got straight to the point.
Lao Zhuang readily agreed.
"Of course! We're like family, so just bring your people over."
"That's great! How about tomorrow? Do you have time?"
"We have to have it even if we don't. I'll be waiting for you at the studio at 10 a.m. tomorrow."
"Okay. It's settled then."
After agreeing on a time, Qi Shu told Jiang He the news.
"Okay, I got it. See you tomorrow."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang He leaned back on the sofa and opened the system store.
The system shop has been updated with many skills and buffs related to acting and filming.
The dazzling array of items left Jiang He overwhelmed.
The most expensive of them all is this skill called "God-level Acting".
The shorter the introduction, the more impressive it is.
Skills are divided into Master, Hall of Fame, and God levels.
God-level is the highest level skill, and it's also the most valuable, reaching a staggering 50 million popularity points.
This is the first god-level skill that Jiang He has refreshed. This huge amount of popularity value makes Jiang He, who originally thought that 30 million popularity value was a lot, feel that it is a huge achievement.
Suddenly I realized that I'm still quite poor.
You can never have too much popularity.
However, there's no need to exchange for this god-tier skill right now.
Why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut?
He's just a second male lead in a low-budget idol drama. As a newcomer, even if he acquires god-level skills, he won't need them.
Just as you eat one bite at a time, you also need to improve your skills step by step.
Jiang He decisively ignored these advanced skills and focused solely on master-level acting skills and buffs.
First, they set their sights on a "master-level dialogue delivery" skill worth 1.8 million.
Actors not only need to be good at acting, but also at delivering lines.
For an actor, a good command of dialogue is the icing on the cake.
However, if an actor cannot deliver their lines and has poor acting skills, it would be a disaster.
It greatly affects the image shaping and the audience's sense of identification and recognition.
It feels like it doesn't fit the character's persona and is very jarring.
Next, Jiang He spent another 1.5 million popularity points to exchange for the skill "Master-level Actor Basic Skills".
After clicking to use it, a large amount of information and knowledge floods into your mind.
Jiang He closed her eyes slightly, and when she opened them again, she had completely mastered the basic skills that professional actors learn.
He then took out the script and tried reading a few of his lines.
With the support of a master-level command of dialogue, he indeed delivered the lines quite well and was truly outstanding.
After doing all this, Jiang He was getting ready to go to sleep.
I habitually check WeChat before bed, and there it was—a new friend request.
Upon clicking in, I raised an eyebrow in surprise to find that the person who had requested to add me as a friend was none other than Liu Ruyan.
Looking at Liu Ruyan's profile picture, Jiang He's eyes darkened, and without thinking, she immediately blocked her.
Then I turned off my phone, tucked it under my pillow, closed my eyes, and went to sleep.
The next day, accompanied by Fang Linping, Jiang He and Qi Shu went to Lao Zhuang's studio.
