Chapter 111 Superstar
Beijing Film Academy.
Since the audition yesterday afternoon, Jiang Yiyan has lost more than two pounds and she almost jumps when she walks.
But she still tried her best to hold back and not tell anyone about the special treatment she had received during the audition - even though it was 90 percent sure, there was still a chance of success.
If it doesn't work out in the end...
Bah, bah, bah, children’s words are blown away by the wind!
"You are electricity, you are light, you are the only myth..."
At noon, Jiang Yiyan hummed SHE's new song "Superstar" all the way back to the dormitory building from the cafeteria.
Seeing that she was only two steps away from the dormitory, Jiang Yiyan suddenly stopped, frowned, then took two steps back, leaned back, and looked towards the next dormitory with her long hair loose.
When she confirmed that the person flipping through the book in the dormitory next door was indeed a delicate and elf-like girl, she couldn't help but feel sour in her heart.
But then I thought, I'm about to play the second female lead in a 20 million dollar blockbuster production. Wasn't she just the second female lead in "The Story of a Noble Family"?
Jiang Yiyan straightened her back immediately, walked to the next dormitory with a swagger, and greeted: "Hey, Yifei, when did you return to school?"
Liu Yifei looked up and saw that it was Jiang Yiyan. She smiled shyly and said, "I didn't get back to school until after ten o'clock, so I didn't feel comfortable going to the classroom."
"Why should you be embarrassed? We study acting to become actors, and you've already gotten ahead of everyone else." Jiang Yiyan said, and suddenly changed the subject: "By the way, it would have been great if you had come back yesterday. A film crew came to our school for casting yesterday, and many people went for the audition."
"is it?"
Liu Yifei showed a curious look: "Which famous director's new play is this?"
"Uh~"
Jiang Yiyan, who wanted to show off, was choked by these words and said awkwardly: "The director is not famous, but this drama was put together by Xu Kun, the food delivery guy. It is said that the total investment is 20 million!"
In order to get back on track, she emphasized the word "twenty million".
But Liu Yifei just said "Oh" softly, and then said: "Then you have to fight hard for it."
The total investment of "The Story of a Noble Family" was over 1900 million yuan, the total investment of "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" which is about to be released was 3400 million yuan, and the fairy-tale drama that is currently being negotiated is expected to have a total investment of 3000 million yuan. It is normal that she did not react much to the "2000 million yuan".
But in Jiang Yiyan's eyes, this nonchalant attitude seemed like a hypocritical act.
Isn't it just relying on someone behind you? What's there to be proud of? !
Jealousy made Jiang Yiyan unable to control her mouth, and she blurted out: "You don't have to worry about this, I will definitely be selected - you don't know, among all the actresses who auditioned, the director only took a makeup photo for me!"
After saying this, she felt a little regretful, but also a little proud.
So she stuck out her tongue playfully and pretended to be intimate and said, "I only told you this, please don't tell anyone."
"Don't worry, I won't tell you."
Liu Yifei nodded seriously.
The two chatted for a while and agreed to go to class together in the afternoon. Jiang Yiyan then returned to her dormitory.
As a result, when it was past one o'clock and Jiang Yiyan came to find Liu Yifei to attend class together, she found that she was already surrounded by people like a star.
hum~
What’s so great about that? Once I get the second female lead role in “Heavenly Sword”, it’s not certain who will be the better one in the future!
Jiang Yiyan sneered in her heart, but greeted sweetly on the surface: "Oh, so everyone is here - it's just right for us to go to the classroom early and occupy a whole row!"
The girls all agreed cheerfully, and went down the dormitory building laughing and playing. They were so affectionate that it seemed as if they were going to become sworn sisters right away.
But when they got to class, the head teacher used only two sentences to tear their relationship apart.
"Oh, a good group of people are here today. It's just right. You should decide on the groupings for the midterm exam in acting as soon as possible, and have the class monitor give me the list tomorrow."
In an instant, it was like an ice bomb exploded with Liu Yifei as the center.
The girls who had wanted to stretch their necks to a meter long so that they could talk to Liu Yifei for a few more words suddenly looked away at the same time. Some looked around guiltily, while others simply lowered their heads and pretended to listen carefully. Liu Yifei could only stay in school for a few days a month, so how could she have time to rehearse the show with her classmates?
No one wants to be held back by her in the monthly exams, let alone the midterm exams.
Fortunately, there are not only girls with two-faced appearances in the class, but also real hardcore bootlickers.
As soon as the get out of class was over, Zhu Yawen couldn't wait to come over and invite Liu Yifei.
Liu Yifei did not refuse. After all, she had already gotten used to it, and others were even more used to it.
However, this time someone from the boys raised an objection.
"Hey, Yawen, don't you have a great chance in this audition? How will you have time to rehearse? Are you planning to drag Yifei down with you?"
Zhu Yawen's smile froze. Seeing Liu Yifei's doubtful expression, he hurriedly said, "What's there to be afraid of? I can just practice a little more tonight. Besides, during the audition, that Xu... Teacher Xu took the initiative to ask Yifei. Maybe he wants to ask Yifei to perform. It will be convenient for us to rehearse the show then."
What he said was half true and half false, and he just used it to shut his classmates up.
But after hearing this, Jiang Yiyan couldn't help but feel her heart in her throat. She knew that the heroine of this drama had already been decided and it would not be Liu Yifei.
Doesn't that mean Liu Yifei will compete with me for the second female lead? !
At this time, Liu Yifei shook her head and said, "My family has already arranged a new play for me, so I probably won't take your play."
Such straightforward words made Zhu Yawen feel a little embarrassed.
Jiang Yiyan first breathed a sigh of relief, but then she felt upset. Liu Yifei had ignored the role she had been so concerned about...
hum~
Wait until this drama becomes popular and see what she says!
At this time, a girl in the back row suddenly said quietly: "Yes, there is a boss in her family."
The word "主儿" can be used with exaggerated emphasis, and anyone who hears it will know that it is a double entendre with a different meaning.
Zhu Yawen raised his eyebrows and scolded, "What are you talking about?"
"I didn't say anything. I just repeated what Yifei said. Why can she say it but I can't?"
"Okay, okay, it's time to go to class soon."
"She didn't say anything wrong, did she? It was obviously Liu Yifei who said it first."
"Zhu Yawen, what does our conversation have to do with you?"
"Okay, okay, everyone, stop talking."
Everyone was talking at once with different attitudes. The place that seemed to have been attacked by an ice bomb before was now noisy again, with Liu Yifei as the center.
Liu Yifei, who was at the center of the room, had already turned cold, and after hearing several sarcastic remarks, she simply packed up her books, picked them up and left.
"Yifei, where are you going?"
Jiang Yiyan asked subconsciously.
"I'm going to go to the corner and be quiet."
Liu Yifei's clear yet cold voice once again froze the discussions around them.
Although many people are dissatisfied, resentful, envious and jealous of her, no one dares to confront her if she really gets angry.
Seeing Liu Yifei sitting down in the first row near the door, Jiang Yiyan's eyes turned to the seat she vacated.
Although there are an even number of seats in the middle and there is no such thing as an absolute center, but when Liu Yifei was there just now, everyone unconsciously regarded that place as the center.
Now Liu Yifei's position is vacant...
Don’t be in a hurry, don’t be in a hurry!
Jiang Yiyan took a deep breath, suppressed the urge to sit over, and secretly swore in her heart that one day, she would sit in that position and become a real superstar.
