The 19th melon
In the audition conference room, Zhang Shaoteng and Chen Like stared at each other.
The people at the scene couldn't even tell whether the news of "weak sperm" would have a greater impact on Zhang Shaoteng or Chen Like?
The next second, there was a sudden "pop" sound in the conference room, and Zhang Shaoteng slapped Chen Like in the face!
"Bitch!"
Zhang Shaoteng had never expected such vulgar words to come out of his mouth. But what he had never expected was that Chen Like would actually betray him.
Chen Like was stunned by the slap, and her mind was confused for a moment. After she came to her senses, she slapped Zhang Shaoteng back without hesitation.
"Zhang Shaoteng! You're the one who can't do it! What gives you the right to hit me?!"
Zhang Shaoteng was speechless. What's going on? Cheating is still justified, right?
"Chen Li Ke, have I been bad to you during this period? I gave you whatever you wanted. I even tried to get you into Painted Bones if you wanted resources! But how did you repay me? We've only been together for a short time, and you're already cheating on me!"
"I didn't!" Chen Like argued harshly. She didn't know why Lin Cha said that, but the baby in her belly was Zhang Shaoteng's!
The two men were in a stalemate and started to fight. The staff nearby were frightened and rushed forward to pull them apart.
Lin Cha had been eating melon in the corner. When she heard the noise, she poked her head out. She saw the staff members blocking Chen Like and Zhang Shaoteng. She looked puzzled and pulled Liu Mingqian, who was standing beside her. "Teacher Liu, what's wrong with these two? Why did they start arguing while chatting?"
Liu Mingqian: Isn’t it your fault?
Liu Mingqian had no choice but to repeat Lin Cha's thoughts and pretend that he knew it already.
Lin Cha rubbed his chin, thinking, "No wonder they say there are no secrets in the entertainment industry. Liu Mingqian actually knows all this! Liu Mingqian is amazing!"
Liu Mingqian :)
Liu Mingqian: I didn’t know for a moment whether you were praising me or yourself.
Zhang Shaoteng and Chen Like were still arguing in front of them, and the content of their quarrel was nothing more than:
"You slut, you actually cheated on me!"
"You weakling! Don't slander me if you can't do it yourself!"
"I may not be able to do that, but at least I am clean and honest, unlike you who are so fickle!"
"That's still a no-no! Every time I have sex with you, I have to pretend to enjoy it. It's really exhausting!"
"Stinky bitch. Blah blah blah blah..."
"You damn weakling blah blah blah..."
"A fickle girl, blah blah blah..."
"Weak sperm. Impotence. Blah blah blah blah..."
The argument reached a stalemate, with little information to share beyond the verbal abuse. The crowd, content with just the fun, was more curious about what would happen next. Sun Qianqian deliberately leaned closer to Lin Cha, feigning analysis, "The core of the dispute now is: whose child is Chen Like's? Is it Zhang Shaoteng's?"
Just enough.
Lin Cha nodded in agreement, but in her heart she couldn't help but follow Sun Qianqian's train of thought. "Is there even any need to think about this? Zhang Shaoteng is weak, so the child definitely isn't his!"
【but……】
Lin Cha looked around and saw that everyone's attention was focused on Zhang Shaoteng and Chen Like. He quickly opened the "Eat Melon" system and thought, "I didn't have time to check just now. Whose child is Chen Like's...?"
Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard the key words. Even Zhang Shaoteng and Chen Like, who had been arguing loudly, lowered their voices.
[Chen Li Ke cheated...]
[Chen Li Ke cheated...]
[Chen Li Ke cheated...]
[Hey, why can't I find any information about Chen Like's infidelity? Could it be that Chen Like didn't cheat?]
well?
Lin Cha's words aroused everyone's curiosity.
Chen Like didn't cheat? But Zhang Shaoteng is weak, so if Chen Like didn't cheat, whose child is this?
Found it!
[I searched for the keyword "Chen Like cheated," but couldn't find anything. Turns out Chen Like didn't cheat!]
[However, this child isn't Zhang Shaoteng's either, it's actually Chen Like's ex's! ]
Chen Like and her ex have been on and off for three years. Chen Like despises his lack of ambition, yet she can't bear to part with his skills in bed...
Everyone: “…”
Everyone looked at Zhang Shaoteng dimly.
It seems that what Chen Like said when the two were fighting, "Every time I go to bed with you, I have to pretend to enjoy it," was true!
After all, the predecessor was so good at kung fu, so the comparison created a gap!
Normal! Normal!
Zhang Shaoteng's face flushed with shame, but he could only glare at Chen Like.
Unexpectedly, Chen Like snorted coldly and gave Zhang Shaoteng a disdainful look.
Chen Li Ke: You stinky man! You just can’t do it! Humph! Humph!
Lin Cha continued to check the melon-eating system:
[Let me see, when did Chen Li Ke break up with her ex...]
Three months ago, Chen Like made the painful decision to give up her sexual happiness and break up with her ex. Her ex deliberately suggested a sex date before the breakup, and Chen Like agreed.
[Unexpectedly, the ex, this scumbag, secretly took off the umbrella midway! A single shot hit the target, and Chen Li Ke got pregnant! ]
[Chen Like was completely unaware that she happened to meet Zhang Shaoteng while hanging out at a bar the next day. They fell in love at first sight and went to bed at the second...]
Zhang Shaoteng was stunned.
He and Chen Like had indeed met at a bar, and it was pretty much the same story as Lin Cha had described. He was a typical over-the-top fantasist, trusting his feelings. His relationships always progressed quickly, often leading to love at first sight or one-night stands, and Zhang Shaoteng never saw any problem with that.
but--
"Chen Like, the last time we met at the bar, you told me you'd been single for a year! Turns out it's been less than a day!"
Chen Like curled her lips, "Zhang Shaoteng, how old are you? How can you take what they say in the bar seriously? You said you were great in the bar! Seven times a day! What happened? Two times a day would have killed you!"
Zhang Shaoteng's face flushed red. "...Men, men, twice a day is amazing! You girls are just too obsessed with romance novels. How could there be so many people in this world who have sex seven times a day? We mature men value quality, not quantity!"
This made Liu Mingqian and Gong Ke at the scene lose their composure. They tightened their stomachs, straightened their chests, and raised their heads. Their posture clearly showed: I can do it seven times a day!
Lin Cha glanced at the two men beside her and stuffed a melon into her mouth:
Why is Liu Mingqian so cocky? He's been single for ten years, and he hasn't had a date in ten years. And he still wants to make fun of Zhang Shaoteng?
As for Gong Ke... she's still a novice. The first time she held hands was during a filming, the first time she kissed a woman was also during a filming. She's lived for over twenty years, and all her experience has been in filming. In actual combat, she's no match for the big yellow dog at the entrance of Qingchuan Village!
[An old widower and a young virgin, pretending to be an expert, haha!]
Liu Mingqian & Gong Ke: "..."
Why do you want to dig out this kind of melon? Lin Cha, please, leave the child with a pair of pants!
Sun Qianqian chuckled at the side. This time, unlike last time, she was eating someone else's melon. Other people's melons were the most delicious, hehe!
After laughing for a while, everyone's attention returned to Zhang Shaoteng and Chen Like.
The two of them didn't care about Liu Mingqian and Gong Ke's self-esteem. The topic of the quarrel had escalated from "weak sperm cheating" to "should the bastard stay?"
Sun Qianqian felt that the probability of the child staying was slim, and even felt that whether their relationship could continue was a problem.
As a result, the two of them were arguing and the staff couldn't stop them, and they almost started fighting again.
This hot temper is exactly the same.
"ah--!"
Someone in the crowd screamed, breaking the atmosphere of watching the melons. Everyone came to their senses and looked at Zhang Shaoteng and Chen Like nervously.
The anger and rage on Chen Like's face disappeared, replaced by a woman's helplessness and confusion. She looked up at Zhang Shaoteng and said in a desperate voice, "Zhang Shaoteng, it hurts."
Zhang Shaoteng frowned and looked at Chen Like in confusion. The next second, Chen Like's legs went limp and she fainted in Zhang Shaoteng's arms.
"Riko? Riko!"
Zhang Shaoteng hugged Chen Like tightly, panicking. He subconsciously raised his hand that had just been pressed by Chen Like's skirt, and bright red blood had already stained his palm.
And more blood flowed out from Chen Like's lower body.
The ambulance with its sirens blaring took Chen Like to the hospital. When Sun Qianqian and others arrived, they saw Chen Like being pushed into the operating room.
Zhang Shaoteng came to the hospital with Chen Like in an ambulance and was now waiting anxiously at the door of the operating room.
No matter how fiercely they had quarreled before, Chen Like was his girlfriend after all. Apart from the fact that Chen Like had deceived him about the period of being single, she actually did nothing wrong.
Zhang Shaoteng still felt sorry for Chen Like.
The nurse hurried out of the operating room, her hands in surgical gloves covered in blood.
Zhang Shaoteng and others immediately surrounded them.
"Nurse, how is my girlfriend?"
"Ms. Chen has an ectopic pregnancy and has lost too much blood. She urgently needs a blood donor, but she has Rh-negative blood. Our hospital's blood bank is low, so we need to get blood from elsewhere. Does anyone around you have Rh-negative blood?"
Sun Qianqian and others looked embarrassed.
Rh negative blood, commonly known as panda blood.
Less than 1% of people in the world have panda blood, and Sun Qianqian and others have normal blood types.
Zhang Shaoteng squeezed in front of the nurse and said, "I have Rh negative blood."
He smiled bitterly, "Li Ke and I met by chance because of panda blood. We agreed that if the other person gets sick and needs to be hospitalized in the future, we can help with blood transfusion."
I didn’t expect that the relationship would be difficult to sustain, but the original intention of donating blood could be realized.
The nurse breathed a sigh of relief. "You have Rh-negative blood? That's easy! But I have to ask first, you and the patient are not direct relatives, right? Blood transfusions cannot be performed between direct relatives!"
Zhang Shaoteng said seriously, "Of course not. I...we are boyfriend and girlfriend."
He was only 30 years old and couldn't possibly have a child as old as Chen Likeke. Besides, he knew now that he couldn't have any more children.
"That's perfect, you and I will go draw blood!"
Zhang Shaoteng was about to leave with the nurse.
Behind him, Lin Cha's voice suddenly came -
[By the way…are siblings considered immediate family members? Can blood transfusions be performed between siblings?]
[Oh, brother and sister are collateral relatives, so a blood transfusion is fine. It's all good!]
A big question mark appeared in Zhang Shaoteng's head.
Brother and sister?
Why did Lin Cha suddenly mention brother and sister again?
After returning from the blood transfusion, Zhang Shaoteng pressed the needle hole where the blood was collected with a cotton swab and returned to the door of the operating room.
There were a few more people at the door of the operating room.
Sun Qianqian was worried about Chen Like, so she asked the staff to contact her family. At this moment, Chen Like's parents had arrived and were waiting anxiously at the door of the operating room.
Hearing that Zhang Shaoteng had arrived, the old man turned around and looked at him with gratitude, "Xiao Zhang, this time it's all thanks to you for the blood transfusion! Otherwise, our Li Ke wouldn't know what to do!"
Zhang Shaoteng shook hands with Chen Like's father, saying that this was what he should do. When it was Chen Like's mother's turn, Zhang Shaoteng's hand froze in mid-air.
The middle-aged woman glanced at Zhang Shaoteng and was also stunned. She was a little bit incredulous, but also a little tentative. "Shao, Shaoteng?"
Zhang Shaoteng felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
He hadn't heard this voice for more than 20 years.
In my memory, she was clearly young, like a girl, with a gentle and beautiful smile. But now her temples were graying, and wrinkles were creeping around her eyes.
It's been more than 20 years.
He hadn't seen her for more than 20 years, so long that he had forgotten there was such a woman in his life.
At that moment, Zhang Shaoteng couldn't control himself and tears burst out.
Sun Qianqian and the others beside him were confused, not understanding why Zhang Shaoteng was in such a state, but they heard Lin Cha's leisurely voice -
[After all, after more than 20 years, seeing your biological mother again, anyone would want to cry, right?]
[Oh, who would have thought? I thought I was meeting my mother-in-law, but it turned out to be my own mother!]
Everyone's pupils trembled.
Dear, dear mother?
Whose biological mother? Chen Like’s biological mother? Or Zhang Shaoteng’s biological mother?
What's the saying? Lovers eventually become siblings! Zhang Shaoteng and Chen Like really took an old romance script! In the end, they actually became siblings!
[So, after your parents divorce, you should still visit each other more often, otherwise your mom might give birth to a half-sister for you and you won't even know it!]
Everyone's eyes were as round as copper bells.
He turned his head and looked at Zhang Shaoteng and Chen Like's mother. Needless to say, these two people really looked 50% similar, especially Zhang Shaoteng's pair of peach blossom-attracting almond-shaped eyes, which looked exactly like Chen's mother!
At first, Chen's mother and Zhang's father fell in love and gave birth to Zhang Shaoteng. However, the good times did not last long, as Chen's mother and Zhang's father chose to break up due to personality differences.
Zhang's father was a romantic who pursued art and freedom. After the divorce, he took Zhang Shaoteng abroad and let him study film.
Chen's mother liked a stable life, so she stayed in China after the divorce and married a man within the system for the second time. She lived a simple life. Not long after the marriage, she gave birth to Chen Like.
Chen's mother has Rh-negative blood, which also means that Zhang Shaoteng and Chen Like also have Rh-negative blood.
Life is far more dramatic and more bloody than novels.
Zhang Shaoteng looked at his mother whom he had not seen for a long time. He could hardly remember her face. If Lin Cha's voice had not reminded him, he might not have recognized her for a moment.
Mother Chen looked at Zhang Shaoteng, a trace of panic in her old eyes, and said the words she was most worried about.
"The nurse said Coco is pregnant. She's still your girlfriend, so what's in her belly..."
"no."
Zhang Shaoteng paused, then smiled bitterly and said, "That's not my child."
For the first time, he was actually extremely relieved that his girlfriend was not pregnant with his own child.
Chen Like's operation was very successful. Although the child was not saved, the adult was saved.
Chen's mother and father were taking care of Chen Like in the ward. Zhang Shaoteng only watched at the door for a few minutes and eventually left.
Before leaving, he sent Chen Like a breakup text message.
He will continue to love Chen Like, but it can no longer be love.
On the other side, after Sun Qianqian confirmed that Chen Like was safe, she paid the medical bills and returned to Xinghui Building.
Ever since Zhao Kuan's affair was exposed, Sun Qianqian has been a little PTSD and stays away from men with scandals.
In her opinion, men who fall for pig-killing scams aren't very smart. Of course, men who get so involved in a relationship with their sister that they almost get her pregnant aren't very smart either.
Sun Qianqian refused to cooperate with these stupid people.
"Painted Bones" still needs a director, and Sun Qianqian wants to find someone with a clean background, or at least not one with too many romantic scandals.
Finally, she set her sights on Liu Mingqian.
A widower who was widowed young and single for ten years, wouldn't that be a problem? Wouldn't his reputation collapse before the movie airs?
Liu Mingqian stared at Sun Qianqian's eyes. He always felt that there was something wrong with the way Sun Qianqian looked at him.
——With a hint of sarcasm.
"Teacher Liu, I see you don't have any projects recently. Why don't you come to our "Painting Bones"..."
"No."
Liu Mingqian refused without even thinking.
It's not that they're deliberately being disrespectful to Sun Qianqian, but filming a movie requires a lot of preparation. For example, Lin Cha is only the second female lead, so taking two leave midway to film a show is perfectly fine. But if Liu Mingqian took on "Painted Bones," he'd be the director, so taking leave midway to film a variety show wouldn't be an option.
Supporting actors can adjust their time according to the schedule, the director must be there every day, and if the crew takes leave and delays for a day, that’s all money!
Sun Qianqian knew Liu Mingqian's situation, so she didn't make it too difficult for him and prepared to find someone else.
Looking at the list of directors that the assistant brought out, Sun Qianqian felt completely bald.
His talent can be analyzed based on his past works, but what about his character? Wouldn't he be caught up in rumors of having a girlfriend or a child while filming?
Just when Sun Qianqian was having a headache, Lin Cha came to the conference room to find Liu Mingqian. As soon as he entered, he saw the list of directors to be invited that Sun Qianqian had projected on the screen.
[Is Vice President Sun planning to change the director? Wow, with so many people, are they going to choose another director like Zhang Shaoteng, who's full of gossip?]
While Lin Cha doesn't want to be famous, she also doesn't want her hard-earned film to go to waste due to a director's issues. As a newcomer in the entertainment industry, she's quite curious to see herself on the big screen.
Sun Qianqian suddenly realized something and immediately pulled Lin Cha over and gave her a cup of coffee that her assistant had just bought.
"Chacha, which of these directors do you think is better?"
"Let me choose?"
Lin Cha was shocked. Sun Qianqian was too casual!
Sun Qianqian: "Just take a look and offer some feedback! Teacher Liu and Gong Ke can also offer their opinions!"
Liu Mingqian understood what Sun Qianqian meant and said pretentiously, "Mr. Sun likes to gather ideas. Lin Cha, just give us some opinions from the audience's perspective. For example, from my perspective, this Zhang San is quite good. He won the Thousand Flowers Award last year and has excellent literary and commercial talents..."
[This won’t work! ]
Lin Cha's inner voice echoed: "Although he's a returnee and used to be an assistant director in Hollywood, he was a drug addict while abroad. Damn, won't this kind of person be ruined?"
Liu Mingqian: "Li Si, graduated from the Beijing Film Academy, specializes in commercial films and has extensive experience."
[This guy is a whore! He even had a mermaid feast on an island before, putting sashimi on a mannequin and licking it mouthful by mouthful! And he used a mannequin...]
Liu Mingqian: "Wang Wu, Communication University of Central China..."
[His professional skills are good, but his academic credentials are fake. He doesn't even know anything about CNKI! With so many students taking the postgraduate entrance exams and civil service exams these days, if this were to get out, he'd be in big trouble!]
Liu Mingqian: "Zhao Liu..."
There's nothing wrong with this guy, but he loves to lick his toenails! He even likes to cut his toenails and soak them in water to drink! Should we hire such a weird person as a director?
Everyone:?
Before Lin Cha came here, she hadn't noticed how strange these people in the entertainment industry were. Couldn't they just be honest people?
In the end, Liu Mingqian finished reading out all the directors on the list, and Sun Qianqian finally chose one that was relatively unrelated.
In order to prevent any problems with the actors, Sun Qianqian showed Lin Cha the already confirmed list of actors.
Sun Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief after finding that there were generally no problems.
But Lin Cha was quite curious about the cast, and with a casual glance, he saw the list that Sun Qianqian hadn't shown him - the male lead.
Lin Cha said "Huh".
Liu Mingqian looked in the direction of the voice and saw the male lead's resume. He frowned, "Chenzui? Mr. Sun, do you want Chenzui to be the male lead?"
The resume showed a 26-year-old man, young, handsome, and clearly wearing a suit, but his messy hair gave him a bit of a ruffian vibe.
A dashing and playboy.
This was the first impression Lin Cha had of Chenzui she saw. Beneath this impression, there was also a vague aversion she couldn't quite explain.
"Is there any problem with letting Chenzui be the male lead?" Lin Cha asked in confusion.
Chen Zui's resume is dazzling. Even if we don't discuss his appearance and figure, his gorgeous award-winning resume is enough to dazzle everyone: young, he won three Golden Horse Awards, starred in the top-ranking Chinese box office, and his actual box office totaled over 20 billion, the highest actual box office total...
Lin Cha didn’t know much about this world, but after seeing the awards, he thought they were impressive.
"No problem..." Liu Mingqian hesitated for two seconds, "It's just that he has a lot of melons on him."
"In the entertainment industry, when a star gets into trouble, they call it a house collapse. All stars worry about a house collapse, but if someone is intoxicated, they are just ruins. There is nothing left to collapse."
"Ah?" Lin Cha was stunned. "He broke the law?"
"That's not the case." Gong Ke explained, "Teacher Shen is mainly involved in a lot of scandals. He always dominates the entertainment headlines. You can find out if you just search his name."
Lin Cha opened his phone and searched for Chen Zui's name. Sure enough, all he found were melons:
Shocking! The triple-Award-winning actor was found drunk in a hotel late at night meeting a popular young actress!
"Breaking news! The actor has a new girlfriend, and it's Victoria, a 16-year-old model!"
《Breaking News! Mr. Shen's sexual orientation is under discussion, he kissed a male model on the streets of New York!》
Big news! Top actor indulges in trip to Disneyland Paris with child, suspected of having child out of wedlock!
Lin Cha was dazzled by the dazzling news. She had never imagined that a top male star could have so many scandals!
"Everyone's used to Chenzui's scandals. Maybe if he becomes a monk someday, we'll find it strange." Liu Mingqian turned to look at Sun Qianqian and said sarcastically, "I just didn't expect that you would be so concerned about whether the director and other actors would be exposed, yet you would dare to cast Chenzui as the male lead."
"What does that matter?" Sun Qianqian shrugged. "That's intoxicating!"
Chen Zui's resume was displayed on the screen. Looking at Chen Zui's face, Sun Qianqian's cold and beautiful face melted a little, revealing an admiring look, "With Chen Zui's face and acting skills, let alone the gossip, even if he has a hundred girlfriends, I think his fans can accept it.
“Not only can they accept it, they even feel regretful that they are not that 1/100!
"Can other male actors have this ability? If you don't believe me, ask Lin Cha, was he mesmerized by Chen Zui's looks the first time he saw him?"
Liu Mingqian and Gong Ke glanced at Lin Cha with scrutinizing eyes.
Lin Cha was stunned and touched the tip of her nose awkwardly. She was just an 18th-tier celebrity, so how could she have the nerve to speak ill of the three-time Golden Horse Award winner in public? She could only honestly say, "He is quite handsome..."
【But why do I feel that this person is annoying? 】
Everyone: ???
Lin Cha actually hates being intoxicated?
Why? It seems like Lin Cha doesn't even know Chen Zui? Does he dislike Chen Zui just by looking at his photo?
Suddenly, Liu Mingqian thought of something and quickly found photos of Zhou Zexu, Jiang Mingkai, Gong Ke, and Zhang Shaoteng.
"Lin Cha, among these four, who do you think is the most handsome? Who is the ugliest?"
Gong Ke was right there, so Lin Cha was too embarrassed to say anything, so she just made up some nonsense, "Of course Mr. Gong is the most handsome, and Zhang Shaoteng is the ugliest!"
But in my heart I thought: [In terms of looks, Jiang Mingkai is still the most handsome, Zhou Zexu is about the same as Jiang Mingkai, Gong Ke is second, and Zhang Shaoteng is the ugliest!]
Liu Mingqian instantly recalled the discussion in the gossip group about the evaluation criteria for Lin Cha's favorability towards male guests. They had never quite understood why Zhou Zexu and Jiang Mingkai scored so low, while Liu Mingqian and Chen Xianzhi scored relatively high.
Now, Liu Mingqian understood.
In an instant, his face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
Lin Cha's favorability towards the opposite sex is actually contrary to his appearance!
The more beautiful someone is, the lower their favorability is!
Jiang Mingkai was the most handsome in her mind, so he only got an 8-point favorability rating at the beginning.
And he, in Lin Cha's mind, received the highest score in favorability among the opposite sex, so he was the ugliest in Lin Cha's eyes!
Liu Mingqian's face grew darker.
Lin Cha was confused and asked with concern, "Teacher Liu, why do you look so bad? Did you not sleep well last night? Do you want to go back and rest?"
"Don't talk to me!" Liu Mingqian said angrily, "I'm afraid I won't be able to help but beat you up!"
Lin Cha: ???
After choosing the director, Lin Cha still had to wait for Xu Fei to come and complete the contract with Xinghui for the role of Shang Qianqian in "Painted Bones". Liu Mingqian left first, and Sun Qianqian went downstairs to see him off.
"If you had known that Lin Cha's acting was so good, you wouldn't have had to come here specially." Sun Qianqian said to Liu Mingqian before leaving.
Lin Cha’s acting skills are very good. She can handle the role of Shang Qianqian on her own without Liu Mingqian’s help.
Sun Qianqian knew that it was inevitable that people would be forced into film and television projects. If the acting skills of the people forced in were acceptable, it would be just a normal transaction. But if they had Lin Cha's acting skills, it would be a blessing.
"Do you think her acting is good enough to be described as good?" Liu Mingqian asked back. "That blood-drinking scene she just performed..." Liu Mingqian mentally assessed it. "It could have won an award."
Sun Qianqian is not a professional. She just thinks Lin Cha’s acting is very good from the perspective of a producer. She does not have a clear understanding of what this “good” means. When she heard Liu Mingqian’s evaluation, she was very surprised.
"How could Lin Cha's acting be so good? Are you exaggerating? She's not a professional actor and has no acting experience before!" Can talent and aura alone lead to award-winning performances?
"I don't know either,"
Liu Mingqian pondered for a moment, "Maybe she's learned from a teacher before, but I feel...she only discovered today that she's a good actor."
Passing by the studio, Lin Cha saw the assistant director in the studio replaying the clip of himself playing the role of Shang Qianqian.
When Lin Cha saw himself appear on the screen for the first time, he did not feel strange, but instead had a strange sense of familiarity.
It seems like she was born to be on the screen.
But wasn't she an agricultural student who had just graduated from the ivory tower? Didn't she get into a car accident on her first day out of school and come into this world?
This acting...
Even though Lin Cha is an outsider, he feels that it is really good.
Lin Cha thought carefully about his past: his parents, his family... his life at the Agricultural College, his experiments, his classes...
Lin Cha suddenly realized that there was nothing.
She could remember some fragments of the past, but those fragments were like the script of today's audition, pale and distant, without any sense of reality.
Lin Cha shook his head vigorously.
Is it because she had been in the car accident for too long and her body was almost brain dead in the real world, so she couldn't remember the past?
She should wait until the system comes next time and ask it again!
After Xu Fei arrived, Lin Cha took Xu Fei to Sun Qianqian's office to sign a contract with Xinghui.
Xu Fei looked at Lin Cha strangely. He couldn't believe that Lin Cha actually got the role of the second female lead in "Painted Bones".
"'Painted Bones' is a big IP, how could you possibly get this role just by auditioning?"
"I just saw Liu Mingqian's car in the underground garage. Did Liu Mingqian help you? You actually got in touch with Liu Mingqian!"
"It seems like sending you to the variety show 'Leisure' was the right decision! You're not very good at picking up young hunks, but you're really good at seducing older men!"
Xu Fei kept chattering, which annoyed Lin Cha to death. Just as she was about to retort, a sneer suddenly came from behind her.
"You're not that good at helping artists get resources, but you're a first-rate gossipmonger!"
After sending Liu Mingqian off, Sun Qianqian returned to the office and saw Lin Cha and Xu Fei standing at the office door.
When Xu Fei saw Sun Qianqian, his arrogance instantly vanished, and he immediately turned into a servile person and extended his hand, "Hello, Mr. Sun! I'm Xu Fei from Pengcheng Entertainment. I've heard a lot about you!"
Sun Qianqian didn't even look at Xu Fei, but turned to Lin Cha and said, "I didn't understand before. With your acting skills and looks, how could you be just an unknown in the entertainment industry?"
Sun Qianqian's eyes slanted and fell on Xu Fei, full of contempt. "After seeing your agent, I understand most of what you're thinking. With an agent like that holding you back, it's hard for you to become famous."
Xu Fei's face flushed and he looked embarrassed.
You bitch, aren't you just relying on your status as the daughter of the Starlight boss? Without this status, what are you?
Besides, didn't Lin Cha just hook up with Liu Mingqian? She's so cocky! Those men are just playing with you, throwing a few resources at you. Do you really think you've flown to the top and become a phoenix?
But because of Sun Qianqian's identity as the vice president of Xinghui, Xu Fei could only complain a few words in his heart, and continued to pretend to be a grandson on the surface, not daring to refute Sun Qianqian at all.
Lin Cha shrugged nonchalantly. "It can't be helped. We're just a small company, so the quality of our employees can only be this good!"
Besides, the previous book-traveling person chose to join Pengcheng not because he was impressed by Pengcheng's strength, but because he was impressed by Xu Fei's ability to stab himself!
Sun Qianqian looked up and down at Lin Cha and Xu Fei.
The more I look at Lin Cha, the more I feel that she and Pengcheng are not a good match. Xu Fei standing next to her almost makes her lose her value.
——But Lin Cha may not be worth much now.
After thinking carefully for two seconds, Sun Qianqian quickly figured out the situation in her mind. With clear eyes, she asked Lin Cha, "How many years of contract did you sign with Pengcheng? How many years are left on the contract?"
Lin Cha thought for a moment and said, "Newcomers should get a 30/70 split. As for the remaining time, there are still four and a half years."
Four and a half years is quite a long time. But considering Lin Cha's status, the penalty shouldn't be high.
Sun Qianqian nodded seriously, feeling that her plan was becoming more and more promising.
"In that case, Lin Cha, I'll pay your penalty. You can terminate your contract with Pengcheng now. I'll give you an A-level contract, with a 50-50 split between the company and the artists. I'll let Xinghui's best agent manage you. How about that?"
As I was writing, I found that the favorability was still a bit unbalanced, mainly because the difference between men and women was too big, so I revised the previous favorability again.
