Playing with the Movie King 1
Tao Yuan looked at the blooming peach blossom, which was the symbol of the perfection of his and Wei Shicheng's love. It took him a lifetime to finally make this flower bloom completely, but there was no room for anyone else in his heart.
Tao Yuan kept looking at the peach blossom for a very long time. There was no flow of time in the system. He could guard the peach blossom forever, forever immortal.
But perhaps he had been looking for too long, and the system had to remind him that it was time to go to the next world.
"I may not be able to go to the next world." Tao Yuan said.
"Why?" the system asked
"I already have someone I love deeply, and I definitely can't have a relationship with someone else. I'll just stay here and protect our love, so I won't feel lonely."
"Master... perhaps you don't know yet, but the one you need to capture is actually the same soul. When you go to the next world, that soul will go with you. However, unlike you, it doesn't retain the memories of every life."
Tao Yuan was stunned for a moment, then said angrily, "What do you mean by 'maybe I don't know'? You never told me, how could I possibly know?"
“…”
"As a system, you didn't even tell me this kind of thing in advance. Are you kidding me?"
“…”
Tao Yuan stood up, patted the non-existent dust on his hands, and said unhappily, "If I had known earlier that they were the same person, I wouldn't be sad here for a long time. Send me to the next world quickly."
"Yes, Master."
………………………………
The next morning, Tao Yuan got up, washed, and stood in front of the bathroom mirror, looking at his completely refreshed face. Compared with his state last night, he was like a completely different person.
The original owner had a very poor immune system, and would easily suffer from high fevers and severe colds. The slightest chill would definitely make him sick, and this had been the case since he was a child. However, this severe cold and high fever were not caused by him catching a cold carelessly.
Tao Yuan went out with his backpack, even though his cold had healed, but he still wore a mask. It wasn't because the original owner was so famous that she would be recognized without a mask. The original owner was not even a 38th-tier celebrity now, and no one would recognize her if she went out.
However, everyone in the company who knew the original owner knew that he had a bad cold again, so Tao Yuan wore a mask to make them think that he was not completely well yet.
After Tao Yuan arrived at the company, the newcomers who had joined the company at the same time as the original owner were already sitting together chatting, looking very excited.
Although they were only auditioning for roles similar to extras, slightly stronger than extras, this production was not only a big investment, but the lead actors also had impressive plastic surgery. For them, being able to show up in it, even as an extra, was very exciting.
Liu Yong was the team leader who managed these newcomers. He was looking at the schedule when he looked up and saw Tao Yuan coming in. He asked him, "Hua Xi, are you feeling better with your cold?"
Tao Yuan replied, "Much better."
"Don't be so stubborn. It will be troublesome if you suddenly faint like last time. Although this opportunity is rare, for the sake of everyone else, we cannot give a bad impression to the crew." Liu Yong looked at him with some concern. He was not worried about his health, but worried that he would affect everyone's audition.
Tao Yuan took off his mask and said, "Don't worry, team leader, I won't faint this time."
Seeing that his complexion was indeed much better, Liu Yong nodded, walked towards him and whispered, "Okay, do your best in this audition. Let me tell you something, not only are there auditions for minor supporting roles, but there are also several dance stand-ins, and they'll probably be auditioning today. With your looks and dancing ability, you have the best chance of getting the audition. Don't look down on stand-in roles, first get familiar with the crew, try to please them, and make them remember you. Only then will you have more opportunities in the future."
"I understand, team leader. I will try my best." Tao Yuan said.
"You..." Liu Yong wanted to continue talking, but when he thought about his personality, it was unlikely that he would try to please others. So he sighed and said, "Forget it. If you really can get the audition, we can talk about other things later. Whatever you say now is nonsense."
Liu Yong turned and left the lounge to make other preparations.
Tao Yuan found a seat for himself. In the lounge sat a dozen newcomers, both men and women. They had all been selected for the company at the same time, having graduated from dance academies. They were all under twenty, in the prime of their youth and full of dreams. But few could truly realize their dreams.
The girls were auditioning for roles as backup dancers, maids, and servants, while the boys, in addition to eunuchs and guards, also had some speaking parts. This new group of talent was all dance majors, and the crew had plenty of them. Otherwise, a newly established company like theirs wouldn't have been able to arrange so many newcomers for auditions; this wasn't just any production.
Tao Yuan was flipping through a magazine when the door to the lounge suddenly opened and a woman wearing sunglasses walked in. Her hair looked freshly curled, and with her chin raised, she looked like a proud rooster.
"Hey, Qiaojie, how come you have time to come here today?"
"Hello, Qiaojie."
"Qiaojie, you're here so early. Are you going to the crew?"
"Qiaojie looks really good today, her skin is so nice."
All the newlyweds stood up and immediately surrounded him to greet him and offer some flattery.
"I'm going to the same crew for an audition with you guys. I have some time, so I came to see you." After Li Qiao sat down, he took off his sunglasses and handed them to his assistant, then took the thermos cup and did it in one go, as if he had been specially trained.
Only Tao Yuan remained seated, resisting the urge to roll his eyes as he continued flipping through the magazine. Given the original owner's personality, he would have behaved similarly, so it was perfectly normal for him to be like this.
"Qiao Jie is so nice. She's so busy but still comes to see us."
"That's right. Qiaojie is definitely going to audition for one of the roles, and we are just going to audition for extras. That's the difference."
"I heard Cheng Yi is one of the main actors, and Qiao Jie is his cousin. It's not a piece of cake for him to get a role in it. The audition is just a formality."
"I'm so envious! I also want to have a cousin who's a top celebrity."
Li Qiao's face was filled with unconcealed pride. These flattering words made her feel very comfortable. In fact, she came here just to hear these words. Otherwise, how could she come to the newcomers' shared lounge when she had her own private lounge?
Li Qiao lifted her hair and turned her head. Seeing Tao Yuan, the only one still sitting, her face immediately fell. She thought it was him again.
"Is that the big star? He's wearing a mask. I don't think I've seen him before. Is he the new big star signed by our company?" Li Qiao sneered.
When the others saw that the two were about to argue again, they quickly stepped aside, not wanting to get into trouble.
"In our company, there is no star bigger than Qiaojie. She is just a newcomer who doesn't know how to respect his seniors and has high aspirations." Lin Junqi said extremely flatteringly.
"Oh~" Li Qiao said with a look of sudden enlightenment, "When it comes to disrespecting seniors, I know who it is. After all, there are very few people who don't know the difference between respect and inferiority."
Tao Yuan sneered and said, "If respecting your elders means telling lies and flattering them, then I really don't know how to respect your elders. It's just that those who love to listen to lies, knowing clearly that what others say is not true, still rely on listening to lies to gain vanity and satisfaction, I wonder if this can be considered a disease?"
Tao Yuan propped his chin up with one hand, pretending to think. "Come to think of it, they're just distant relatives. Can they really be considered cousins? I remember that Cheng Yi's fans were particularly disgusted by people pretending to be his cousins."
Cheng Yi is indeed a top-tier celebrity. He not only has a large number of fans, but also has a high level of public recognition. Because he has filmed so many dramas, anyone who watches TV regularly, even if they don't pay attention to the entertainment industry, basically knows him.
Li Qiao is a relative of Cheng Yi who is several doors away from her family. According to seniority, she should call Cheng Yi "cousin". When she first debuted, she promoted herself many times under the banner of Cheng Yi's cousin. At first, it was not a big deal, but after doing it many times, it aroused the disgust of Cheng Yi's fans.
Especially after learning that she was not a biological cousin, but only a distant relative, Cheng Yi's fans immediately started scolding her, saying that she was shameless and was trying to gain popularity. Later, she was warned by Cheng Yi's company that if she continued to use Cheng Yi's popularity, she would be unable to get a foothold in the entertainment industry. Since then, she has not dared to publicly mention that she is Cheng Yi's cousin, but privately, she still enjoys the envy of others for having a cousin who is an A-list star.
"Hua Xi, I think you haven't been taught a lesson enough, right?" Li Qiao gritted her teeth and said, "Do you want me to teach you another lesson?"
"Oh, I've had enough of Qiaojie's lectures." Tao Yuan curled his lips, looking really scared. "Since Qiaojie loves to hear flattery so much, I'll say something to satisfy you. But I never lie, so I have to tell the truth. I heard that last time, Qiaojie slept with a director and producer several times for a role. Although she didn't get the role in the end, her dedication is truly admirable."
The original owner was not a person who disrespected his seniors, he was just not good at flattering others. The same was true for other people when they first joined the company. No one was born with the ability to flatter.
The original owner was the best-looking of them all, but also the most reserved. To demonstrate her position within the company and to intimidate the newcomers, Li Qiao caught the original owner and taught her a lesson twice. The other newcomers developed a fear of her, and to protect themselves, they fawned over her every time they saw her.
Li Qiao achieved the desired effect and was very proud of herself. However, she did not expect that after being taught a lesson, the original owner would not only not give in, but would also confront her.
Li Qiao felt that he had not learned enough lessons, so she made several attempts to trick him, causing him to miss the audition opportunity. The original owner was the most talented among the newcomers and had the greatest potential to become famous. The audition opportunity he missed was picked up by Lin Junqi.
Lin Junqi was delighted to have this opportunity. Although he couldn't do anything to the original owner, he always fanned the flames when they clashed. For example, the original owner had a severe cold and fever because Li Qiao pushed him into the pool and had her assistant hold him back, preventing him from coming out and leaving him in the water for a long time.
Li Qiao is the company's most popular female artist, but she's still just an 18th-tier actress. She looks like a supporting actress, and given her temperament, she probably won't be able to play the female lead in her lifetime. However, there are many actresses who have become famous for playing supporting roles. After all, there are so many stars in the entertainment industry, and it's impossible for everyone to play the leading role. Sometimes, supporting roles can be more appealing to the audience.
But sometimes, everything is determined by fate. If you are destined to be famous, you will definitely become famous. If you are not destined to be famous, then you will never become famous. Li Qiao has played many supporting roles, and her acting skills are acceptable, but her recognition is not high.
Of course, Li Qiao was unwilling to just accept her fate. Since the company could not provide her with better resources, she tried to fight for it herself. □□ was her only way to get a chance.
Everyone knows the dirty and ugly side of the entertainment industry, but some things, once brought to the surface, become scandals.
Tao Yuan directly mentioned Li Qiao in front of so many people, which scared the newcomers. No one thought he had the courage to say such a thing.
Li Qiao's face turned pale with anger, and even the thick foundation on her face couldn't hide her ugly face. She stood up suddenly, walked in front of Tao Yuan, and glared at him.
Tao Yuan also stood up. Because he was tall, he looked down at her.
"What did you just say?" Li Qiao's lips trembled with anger. "Say it again if you dare!"
"There's something I'm really curious about. Did you sleep with the director and producer separately, or did you sleep with them together?" Tao Yuan looked at her with contempt.
Li Qiao raised her hand angrily and was about to hit Tao Yuan in the face.
The author has something to say: Readers who have read the final chapter of the previous article should know a little bit about the relationship between the top and the bottom. However, some readers have not read my previous quick-transmigration and don't know what the routine of my quick-transmigration is. In order to avoid confusion for readers, I will give some spoilers here that may not be explained until the sequel.
The peach blossom branch in the system is part of the receiving body, and the various powerful abilities in the system come from the attacking divine power (to put it bluntly, the system is the attacking divine power. Note that the system is not the attacking, it is the attacking divine power.)
Every time the bottom travels through time, it is not him who is looking for the top in each world, but a wisp of the top's soul keeps following the bottom to different worlds (so the top travels through time at the same time as the bottom, he does not arrive at a certain world before the bottom).
The top's divine power is used to protect the bottom, so he does not have a system for storing memories like the bottom.
When the attacker travels through time, he only has the original owner's memories, and it takes some time, and the guidance of the victim, before he can make the original owner's thoughts disappear and allow his own thoughts to take over.
So this is why the main task of the shou is to capture the gong. The gong and shou fall in love because they were originally lovers, but for some reason, they have no memory of their previous love.
I have explained it so clearly, if you still don’t understand, then there is nothing I can do (spreading hands)
I found that many readers did not see what I said earlier, so I will put it here again. Finally, I want to emphasize again that the top did not travel through time before the bottom, so there is no such thing as the top liking someone else.
