Chapter 001
[Li Tao: After reading Director Chen’s Weibo, is Xu Jingning going to appear on “The New Generation”? ]
1L: As the title says, Director Chen praised several new actors in his Weibo post yesterday. I wonder if anyone noticed that except Xu Jingning, they are all official students of "The Actors and Actresses". Maybe this is a hint?
2L: Cast a vote. Yes, Director Chen rarely posts on Weibo, so isn’t this just publicity?
3L: Not necessarily. Wasn't the point of that post to criticize some actors for having bad intentions on the set and not doing their job properly? Praising the younger generation was just a side note, and Xu Jingning just happened to finish filming with his crew.
4L: I agree with the above point of view. After all, "The Actors and Daughters" is an S-level program that Apple TV has been preparing for a whole year. Xu Jingning's resources should not be enough.
5L: I don’t know much about him. I just heard that he is a very stable CP player. But he doesn’t seem to have many works?
6L: It's so interesting. It would be interesting if Xu Jingning really performed this life. He would pull hair with Chen Luo. Hahahahahahahahahahahaha.
7L: Take our Luoluo away. Luoluo is not someone that some bad person can take advantage of.
8L: Wow, the floor scrubber with a certain flow rate arrives so quickly?
9L: I laughed. It makes you say that Chen Luozhen relies on his own real ability. He has the nerve to accuse others of trying to scam him, while he himself is just using his Yan fan persona to gain popularity without saying a word. I guess those who come to perform here are chasing after Teacher Yan, right?
10L: Haha, it’s much better than Xu who sucks blood secretly and refuses to admit it, right?
11L: Can the fan circle quarrel be changed to another platform? I just want to know whether Xu Jingning will go on stage or not.
…
In mid-July, the summer was in full swing, and Pingjiang Airport was bustling with people as usual. As soon as Xu Jingning got off the plane, he felt the warm welcome of the temperate continental climate.
I went to a rainy and humid country for a week's vacation, and I couldn't adapt to the dry air environment at first.
Fortunately, as a native of Pingjiang, Xu Jingning quickly digested the unpleasant emotions and walked out dragging his suitcase.
“The trending search is about to drop, but as of 3pm, the spread has reached the expected A value.”
"Ning Ning, we really don't want to give it a try. Even if we can't get an S, the reward for A+ will be doubled, okay?"
"Double it! Six whole years of life!"
Xu Jingning seemed not to hear the electronic voice in his head. He walked leisurely into the VIP room of the airport and let himself talk. Only after he sat down did he close his eyes and reply to the noisy system: "Yes, you go and push it, push my name directly to the hot search, and then after this, both of our jobs will be overturned."
The electronic voice "gurgled", sounding a little aggrieved, but still did not give up tempting him: "But I have calculated it many times, it shouldn't have any adverse effect on you."
Xu Jingning suddenly smiled and said, "Tongtong, how many years have you been following me?"
System: “…Eight years?”
"Eight years, if converted into human form, is just the second grade of elementary school." Xu Jingning hit it mercilessly, "I don't want to gamble my career with an elementary school student."
The system refused to give up: "Ning Ning! If you don't believe me, believe in yourself at least!"
Xu Jingning smiled: "What a coincidence, I don't trust myself either."
system:"……"
Xu Jingning encountered the melon-eating life-extending system during the summer vacation eight years ago.
Because he was diagnosed with a heart defect shortly after birth, Xu Jingning spent his childhood surrounded by medicine. Even though his whole family took good care of him, his health continued to deteriorate as he grew older.
On the day when he was pushed into the operating room for the last time, as he was about to fall into a coma, Xu Jingning heard a voice calling out, "Hello, do you want to make a deal?"
"Let's eat melons together to prolong our lives?"
Xu Jingning's mind was in a daze at the time. When he heard the words "extend life", he only thought of his family's anxious eyes. So he didn't think too much and directly agreed to the voice's suggestion.
When everyone saw Xu Jingning come out safely, they breathed a sigh of relief. Unexpectedly, the subsequent recovery was also extremely smooth. Even the attending physician was surprised and said that in all his years of practice, this was the first case of congenital heart defect that he had completely cured.
But only Xu Jingning knew that on the first night after waking up from the operation, the electronic sound appeared in his brain again.
"Hello dear host~ I am the Melon Eating Life Extension System, number 2874. Because I detected that the host's life span has been reset to zero, I have advanced one year's life bonus for you in advance."
"From tomorrow on, our mission is...
Dig the biggest melon!
Listen to the most ruthless corner!
Beautiful life extension!
Looking forward to the next cooperation with the host~"
That year Xu Jingning was fifteen years old and was about to go to high school.
He also changed from a well-behaved and gentle character to a person who was obedient on the surface but secretly made trouble. He would always clap his hands and pretend nothing happened before fleeing the crime scene. Over time, Xu Jingning became an out-and-out troublemaker in the eyes of everyone.
What a nice little troublemaker who looks good, well behaved and pretty.
From small things like the development of the love affairs of a few secret couples in the next class to big things like eavesdropping on teachers talking about the principal's romantic history in the office, there was no gossip or first-hand information in the entire school that he could not get.
It was not until she went to college that Xu Jingning, in order to dig up bigger gossip, coaxed and persuaded her elder sister, who was a full-time agent, and finally entered the entertainment industry as an actor as she wished.
During the years of fighting to prolong his life, most of the time things went smoothly, but he could not stand the inexperienced and brainless newborn system 2874, which was always whimsical and would drag the host down with it if he disagreed with something.
Under Xu Jingning's deathly smile, 2874 finally learned to shut up.
While waiting, Xu Jingning browsed posts on an anonymous platform while eating dessert in the VIP room. When he was about to take the third piece of cake, a woman with a strong aura hurried over and reminded him coldly: "If you take another piece, you will have to eat grass for a month."
The woman was beautifully dressed and had an outstanding temperament. Her features were 70% similar to Xu Jingning.
Recognizing the person from the voice, Xu Jingning withdrew his hand awkwardly.
Then, he sat up straight and said obediently, "Sister."
Xu Jingning's agent is his biological sister, Xu Xingcheng, who is seven years older than him.
"I just didn't follow a group, and you're making trouble for me." Xu Xingcheng started to blame him, with displeasure written all over his face, "What did you do behind my back again?"
Afterwards, she opened her Weibo account and confronted Xu Jingning: "You'd better not try to lie to me."
Although the heat has gradually subsided since it broke out last night, Xu Jingning still quickly found the keywords at the bottom of the hot searches.
#Chen Shibin Some actors#
Director Chen's Weibo post criticized some actors for not working seriously on the set and instead harassing and extorting money from the director. It also attached a short audio clip with a changed voice, which fully exposed the ugliness of human nature.
Because no names were mentioned, netizens enjoyed guessing in the comment section which actor it was who had worked with Director Chen.
But Xu Jingning knew that the incident happened in the crew he had left not long ago, and the actress alluded to in the Weibo post was the second female lead in the group, who was famous in the circle for loving to ride on the popularity of others. When her attempt to take advantage of the situation failed, she wanted to discredit the director and harass her. However, Xu Jingning, who was well prepared, secretly recorded her conversation with the assistant and handed the recording to the director on the day she finished filming.
The original intention was to hope that having evidence in hand would help Director Chen prevent being framed, but I didn't expect that he would choose to reveal it first.
Because she was prepared to be discovered by her sister when she was doing this, Xu Jingning spoke without any pressure: "I gave the recording to Director Chen."
After receiving such an unexpected yet reasonable answer, Xu Xingcheng laughed out of anger: "Okay, so you are so capable? Next time, I will just give you a pestle to poke the sky with!"
"Do you know how powerful your background is to be able to bring money into Director Chen's group? If they find out that it was you who did it, they won't dare to confront Director Chen, but it will only take a few minutes to suppress you!"
Xu Jingning pursed her lips and smiled: "I was wrong, I will dare to do it again next time."
He admitted his mistake with his mouth, but his eyes were wide open.
This shows that there is no attitude of reflection.
Xu Xingcheng: “…”
Xu Jingning raised her head to support her face, and noticed something wrong from Xu Xingcheng's attitude: "Sister, you are so angry, not just because Director Chen mentioned my name on Weibo, right?"
Xu Xingcheng glared at him, then took out a document from his bag: "Read it yourself!"
When he opened the folder, what caught his eye was "Interpreting the New Generation" on the snow-white cover. Xu Jingning, who had been cheerful just now, suddenly restrained his expression.
I immediately understood why my sister was so angry.
The members that have been officially announced so far, whether they are mentors or students, are not people that Xu Jingning can interact with at his current status.
If it had happened to someone else, perhaps everyone would be surprised by this great opportunity, but Xu Jingning has always been a lazy person and has never been on a variety show, so he was afraid of not being liked and being disliked.
"Ning Ning, I know you don't want to be famous, not to mention that Shen Luo and Teacher Yan are on this show." Xu Xingcheng looked at his brother who was in deep thought and sighed, "But this time it was Director Chen who invited you personally, so we can't refuse..."
"Sister." His chatter was interrupted, and Xu Xingcheng looked away, only to see Xu Jingning raising her hand and shaking her phone. On the screen was a fan circle war still going on in a certain post.
The remarks were almost one-sided, and one could tell at a glance that the other party did it on purpose.
Xu Jingning curled her lips and chuckled: "Who said I won't answer it."
He just looks lazy, not without temper.
Since someone wants to drag him into the water, he will cooperate and put on a show to see who will drown.
