"Teacher Chu, you have a lot of lines. Please look at the script next to you. Let Teacher Xu finish filming Brother Xiaoqing's segment first. It's a good opportunity for you to put yourself in the shoes of the character."
The staff rearranged the scene, and the other four people also took their scripts.
Wu Rui and Wu Tong play two abducted young women, while Yuan Jie and Chen Limin play a couple whose child was abducted and who have been searching for him for many years.
Each person's clip is separate, reflecting from different perspectives the extent of the damage this incident has brought to a family and society.
"This is Xiaoqing's stuff. Xiaoqing, where are you?"
In Xu Yu's script, he came to the village and saw Xiaoqing's bracelet. He stayed in the village for a few years and later learned that Xiaoqing had an accident on her wedding night.
Xu Yu's segment was not long, and Chu Zhaozhao watched Xu Yu's role carefully.
"Actor Xu is worthy of being the best actor." Chu Zhaozhao said while applauding Xu Yu.
Xu Yu smiled and indicated that it was Chu Zhaozhao's turn.
Chu Zhaozhao put down the script and stood on the stage. Her segment was very long, from how she was abducted, to how she struggled, and then to her heroic death.
"I can't escape from here, but you can."
"Run, don't look back, and save the rest of the people if you have the ability!"
Chu Zhaozhao discovered other girls who were trafficked with her and secretly took them away, but they were eventually caught by the villagers.
Chu Zhaozhao stood on the stage, pouring all her emotions into every line.
Xu Yu was so engrossed in watching that it felt as if someone was squeezing his heart.
"Teacher Chu, you have worked hard. Teacher Wu, please come first."
Chu Zhaozhao walked off the stage and sat next to Xu Yu.
"Teacher Xu, I'm sorry for making you laugh."
"You acted very well." Xu Yu said lightly.
Chu Zhaozhao thought Xu Yu was just trying to please her because of the camera, so she just smiled casually and said nothing.
Wu Tong and Wu Rui are not actors after all, so their sense of involvement was a bit poor, and a short clip took a long time to shoot.
"I thought we wouldn't be able to get out this time. Luckily, today is a special episode, so there aren't many puzzles to solve. Of course, the production team didn't set up anything to scare me, but I think this incident is even scarier than those horror stories."
Chu Zhaozhao went backstage for an interview, leaving Xu Yu and Yuan Jie and his wife watching Wu Tong and Wu Rui's performance in the audience.
"So, Mr. Chu, how does it feel to work with Mr. Xu?"
"Mr. Xu is such a nice guy, so responsible. Many times, when I was eager to do a solo mission, Mr. Xu didn't let me go because he was afraid I would be in danger. Even when I encountered a trap, Mr. Xu didn't give up on me. Thank you so much for your care."
Remembering Xu Yu's perfunctory treatment to her in front of the camera, Chu Zhaozhao also said some perfunctory words.
It's just a perfunctory job, who can't do it?
"Teacher Xu, Teacher Chu has been praising you just now, so we also want to know what you think of Teacher Chu."
"Chu Zhaozhao is a nice person, very humorous and optimistic. She probably immersed herself in today's topic, especially the role of Xiaoqing. She performed very well on stage. Even during the mission today, she was moved by Xiaoqing's story. I think this is very rare..."
Xu Yu talked a lot and the program crew's hands were sore from holding the microphone.
"Wow, it seems like Mr. Xu thinks very highly of Teacher Chu. So, when does Mr. Xu think Teacher Chu can win the Best Actress award?"
Faced with this question, Xu Yu remained silent.
The staff member realized something was wrong and immediately said, "No matter what, at least we know that Teacher Chu has great potential. Please look forward to it in the future."
After Xu Yu finished the interview, he returned to the backstage, but Chu Zhaozhao was gone.
"Xu Yu, come quickly. Let's go out for a meal later. I haven't seen you for a long time." Yuan Jie said to Xu Yu enthusiastically.
"I'm sorry, I have an announcement later and may not have time today. I will contact you next time and I will treat you next time." Xu Yu bowed after saying this.
Yuan Jie said regretfully, "That's too bad. You have another announcement later, so you should leave first. There's nothing else to do on the set anyway. Chu Zhaozhao also said she had something to do and left first."
"What did she do?" Xu Yu couldn't help but ask.
Chen Limin shook her head and said, "Anyway, she just answered a phone call and left. She left in such a hurry that she didn't even have time to take off her makeup."
"I'm in a hurry, so I'll leave now. Teachers, let's meet again next time when we have time. I will definitely treat you to a meal."
After Xu Yu finished speaking, she took off her makeup, changed into casual clothes, and got into the car arranged by her assistant.
Xu Yu wanted to send a message to Chu Zhaozhao, only to find out that Chu Zhaozhao had rejected his friend request.
In desperation, Xu Yu could only send a text message to Chu Zhaozhao, asking why she left so soon.
"Mr. Xu is really kind-hearted. You seem to care about my affairs very much."
Chu Zhaozhao did not answer Xu Yu's question directly.
The call Chu Zhaozhao received was from her assistant, who said that the company wanted artists like them to compete for an agent.
After competing for the role for so long, this was the first time Chu Zhaozhao heard of competing for an artist.
The woman's name is Sister Wei. It is said that she only manages one artist at a time, and all the artists she manages are popular.
Hearing this, Chu Zhaozhao thought that her agent was of no help anyway, so she might as well find a new one.
"Are you ready?" Chu Zhaozhao found the assistant and asked with concern.
"Everything is ready. Teacher Chu, you can just go in. There should be a few people inside." said the assistant.
Chu Zhaozhao asked: "Why are there only a few of them? There are so many unpopular artists in the company. Don't they plan to become popular?"
"Winning over a new agent is like slapping the previous agent in the face. Some people are unwilling to do such a thing for fear of bad influence," the assistant whispered.
Chu Zhaozhao smiled and said, "That's fine. My agent doesn't provide me with resources or help me with PR. I'm glad she doesn't influence me."
Chu Zhaozhao took the things handed to him by the assistant and went straight into the meeting room.
"Chu Zhaozhao, right? The rest of you wait, I want to hear what Chu Zhaozhao has to say." Sister Wei said, looking at Chu Zhaozhao.
Chu Zhaozhao was not afraid and spoke out her true feelings, even explaining why she wanted to change her agent.
After hearing this, Sister Wei smiled and asked, "So you think an agent is also very important to an artist?"
"It's not very important, but the agents and artists are in the same camp. If the artists don't benefit, what benefit will the agents get?" Chu Zhaozhao said bluntly.
Sister Wei nodded and smiled, and asked Chu Zhaozhao to sit next to her without even looking at the information she handed over.
When others saw that Sister Wei agreed with Chu Zhaozhao's remarks, they also imitated Chu Zhaozhao's words.
"I will call you directly when the time comes. No need to wait, just go back." Sister Wei said generously.
"You look like an HR person. I said the same thing when I was interviewing for a job before."
Chu Zhaozhao complained in her heart, wishing Sister Wei would give her an answer right now.
Coming out of the conference room, Chu Zhaozhao saw Xu Yu panting.
"Mr. Xu, what a coincidence, we meet here again." Chu Zhaozhao looked around and said with a stiff face.
