Chapter 31 Return to the "Cage" crew (seeking recommendation votes)

Canhua Film and Television Base is in Su City, Su Province. Qin Jue had already booked a single apartment in advance when Sen Ran was still around. Since the payment was made with credit points, the landlord was very straightforward and he could move in with his luggage as soon as he got off the plane.

Xu Jingyi's letter had already been sent. Qinyi Logistics has a transshipment and temporary storage service. When Qin Jue rushed to his residence, he took it out from the express cabinet downstairs. Passing by the supermarket, he took back two stacks of letter paper.

She took the elevator to the sixth floor and pressed the combination lock. Migrating with luggage was commonplace in the apocalypse, and Qin Jue completed the simple packing in a few minutes.

This single apartment is designed for young people. The living room is not big, and the remaining space is used to separate a small study room, which is very convenient for working and studying. The bathroom is also separated from the toilet and is equipped with a single bathtub with its own cleaning function, which saves a lot of trouble.

Qin Jue took a quick shower, changed his clothes, and sat at his desk to unpack boxes.

Xu Jingyi's letter had a few more pages and seemed more homely than before, as if she was just chatting with her pen pal. At the end, she even thanked Qin Jue for taking care of her roommate. Her tone was particularly motherly, which made Qin Jue laugh.

Along with the letter was half a box of pocky, two packets of hot pot base and a box of tea. Xu Jingyi was a native of Sichuan Province and didn't know what Qin Jue's taste was like, so she gave her some of both spicy and light food.

After reading the letter, Qin Jue got up and went to the kitchen to boil water and wash the cups. He made a cup of green tea, drank it with a smile on his face while writing a reply.

The orange light from the desk lamp spreads all over the table. The porcelain cup next to her hand is exquisite, with steam rising from it. She is bent over the desk, writing, and her shadow gradually lengthens in the moonlight.

…

In the early morning of the next day, Qin Jue woke up and rushed to the crew with letters and luggage.

There is a self-service printer next to the supermarket downstairs. She printed out the photos of green tea she took, put them in an envelope, and put them into the express cabinet.

The tea that Xiao Jingzi sent was from their own garden and tasted very good. Qin Jue even specially filled a thermos cup with it and put it in his bag to take with him.

She had a good memory and memorized the route after looking at the navigation once, then jogged over with her bag on her back.

It was only five o'clock in the morning when Qin Jue arrived at the crew. He went to find the production manager as Assistant Chen had asked, and was assigned the task of cleaning the venue and arranging props, and then started working.

She works as a handyman and has to go out to pick up and deliver things from time to time. Canhua Film and Television Base is a well-known old-fashioned film and television city. The city has everything from the Tang and Song Dynasties to the Republic of China, and then to modern settings. It is more than twice as large as the Shencheng Film and Television Base.

When Qin Jue passed by, he could see the three-story modern building at the entrance of the base. That was the Film and Television Union Center, which recruited production managers, script supervisors, extras and everything else. Many extras arrived at four or five o'clock to wait. It was easy for ordinary people to act as the roles, and there was no technical content. It was always first come, first served, and the competition was fierce.

She hurried past with a box of props in one hand, her figure light and brisk, as if she was not carrying anything.

At 6:30 in the morning, Jiang Shuming and other main creative staff arrived one after another. The lighting assistant was the most popular position in the "Cage" crew. Not only was he often instructed by Director Jiang, but he also had a high salary. Qin Jue, as a small worker, was at the outermost part of the crew. She vaguely caught a glimpse of Cen Yi's face, but there were layers of people between them, with people clapping boards and holding microphones. It was impossible for her to get close to him, and she didn't have the idea.

Another hour later, Qin Jue accidentally saw Cen Yi's assistant Wang Xuan. Wang Xuan was stunned for a moment. Qin Jue wiped his sweat and smiled: "Brother Wang, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Yes." Wang Xuan smiled, "Go back and get something for Brother Cen."

"Okay, then I'll help." Qin Jue wiped her hands with a towel. She had finished her work and had some free time.

Other small workers in the crew looked at her. Wang Xuan is the assistant of a first-line actor. How could he be so easy to talk to? This kid is really good at climbing up the ladder. He really wants to be famous. He will take advantage of anyone he can get.

The next second, Wang Xuan took Qin Jue into the car.

Others: …

Others: ?
"Who is that guy?" One of them pouted, "Hey, have you seen him?"

The person being asked also shook his head and made a "tsk" sound in the direction the car left.

Qin Jue followed Wang Xuan back to the hotel. The facilities in the Canhua Film and Television Base were more complete and better. Cen Yi was staying in a big hotel. The crew was a little anxious and the elevator was late, so the two of them turned to the stairs.

I met a few men and women on the stairs. They were all sweating and running downstairs, carrying airline boxes and various makeup tools in their hands.

"Hurry up! Do you have any sense? Teacher Chen is waiting impatiently!"

Qin Jue glanced briefly at the person who was talking behind her, and was noticed by that person, who glared at her.

She ignored him and followed Wang Xuan all the way to the seventh floor. Wang Xuan looked thin but in good physical condition. He opened the door and walked into the room without blushing or breathing hard. After a few minutes, he came out with a bag. Qin Jue raised his hand to take it. Wang Xuan also took a small box, and the two of them squeezed into the elevator and went downstairs.

Back at the crew, Qin Jue was not shy. He bent over and squeezed through the crowd, standing in the waiting position with Wang Xuan, which attracted a lot of vague contempt.

The first scene went very smoothly. Jiang Shuming nodded with satisfaction, held the loudspeaker and said "keep it up", and then hurried to start the next one. After shooting two or three scenes, the actors took a break and the scene became lively.

The weather had gradually turned cooler by mid-September, but the studio was full of people and with the lights on, it was as hot as the dog days of summer. It was easy to catch a cold every time you went in and out of the studio.

Jiang Shuming went to adjust the lights with the lighting team again. The executive director held the viewfinder and adjusted the camera position back and forth. Cen Yi let out a long breath and walked towards Wang Xuan and Qin Jue. Two or three makeup assistants rushed over to wipe their sweat and touch up their makeup.

"Thank you for your hard work." He thanked quietly, took the script handed to him by Wang Xuan, turned to the page with the bookmark and read it carefully.

A thermos cup with the lid unscrewed was handed over. Cen Yi took it first, but didn't drink it for a long time. After reading the script and reciting a few lines with his eyes closed, he subconsciously raised it to his mouth and took two sips. His eyes lit up slightly:
"Hey, this tea is not bad."

"Really? The temperature is just right, so you don't have to drink ice water here and catch a cold when you go out."

The voice with a hint of laughter was very familiar. Cen Yi smiled as soon as he looked up: "Hey, you're here?"

"Yes, here I come." Qin Jue nodded.

The two didn't have much time to talk. Cen Yi stuffed the script back into Qin Jue's hands and hurried into the performance area.

Qin Jue smoothed the wrinkles on the paper and looked at Wang Xuan with a bit of amusement: "I, a small worker, was promoted to assistant?"

Wang Xuan also laughed: "Help me to compose the lyrics for Brother Cen later. I'm just being lazy."

Knowing that Wang Xuan was doing this for her own good, Qin Jue smiled and nodded: "Thank you, Brother Wang."

Time flew by in the busyness. The crew led by Jiang Shuming finished filming in the Lingcheng area of Shencheng. Some of the crew members disbanded on the spot, and some followed the crew back to Sucheng. Groups A and B merged. The outside of the spacious studio was bustling with a bunch of extras crowded at the very outside. Qin Jue went out to take a breath during the break and saw that another studio not far away was even busier. A little further away, there was a group of people holding banners and gift boxes standing there. They were probably fans visiting the set. More common were vans and media carrying cameras. Many young actors wanted to join in, but didn't dare, so they just pretended to stroll around five or six meters away, trying to look good in the camera.

It was already six o'clock in the evening when Cen Yi finished filming. He had an exclusive interview tonight. Wang Xuan went back to the hotel to get gifts for the media reporters. It was a full box of things. Qin Jue took a look and saw that most of them were food and daily necessities. The brands were expensive but not out of place, and they were also practical. It was really thoughtful.

When the two men passed each other, they only had time to say hello. Qin Jue quickly stuffed the thermos cup into Cen Yi's hand. He had a lot of scenes and more lines today, and his voice was getting hoarse. It was uncomfortable to hear him clearing his throat during breaks. At least he would feel better if he could drink something warm.

The leading actor went for the interview first, but Jiang Shuming didn't rest at all. He received another night scene and started shooting after preparing for a while.

Qin Jue had a single wireless earphone in her ear and her phone was playing an acting theory class. She didn't have time to take notes on the spot, so she memorized them in her mind.

At 10:30 in the evening, the filming was finally over. Extras, handymen and other sideline workers left one after another. Jiang Shuming drank some water and told the key personnel around him, such as the cameramen and lighting staff, about the latest changes.

Qin Jue turned off the acting tutorial and walked forward. She looked normal, unlike the others who took a deep breath as if they had just gotten off a crowded bus to check if their cardiopulmonary functions were still normal.

A few workers turned around and left, cursing her behind her back, but Qin Jue didn't even glance at them.

"You're here." Jiang Shuming had just finished speaking a long paragraph, turned around and saw her, and waved.

"Hey." Qin Jue didn't say that he had only been there for a day. He nodded and walked over.

"That's Lao Qian. There's a fight scene in Qingyuan tomorrow. Lao Qian, take this kid and prepare."

Lao Qian, who was called, was the martial arts instructor in Su Province. He had just joined the team and had never met Qin Jue.

"A stuntman, right? Come and show me a few moves first." Old Qian called out after hearing that.

Jiang Shuming laughed: "He's not a stunt double, he's a technical consultant."

Qin Jue rubbed his forehead with a headache and laughed: "Director Jiang, this hat is too big."

"Stop talking nonsense and get to work." Jiang Shuming waved his hand with a smile.

Qin Jue responded, walked over and spoke briefly to Lao Qian, and the two of them went to the sidelines to fight.

(End of this chapter) Chapter 32 Daily Life of the Crew (Part 1) (Please give me a recommendation)

In his later years, the young Chi Na went to a boxing ring after being disfigured, so his moves are more methodical than when he was a teenager, and martial arts movements are also incorporated appropriately, but the fighting instinct is still there.

Qin Jue didn't go home that night. Lao Qian came late and was still energetic, so the two talked until the early morning. Jiang Shuming was very good at leading the crew. Except for the odd jobs at the periphery, the main creative staff were all very serious and dedicated. Lao Qian was from Beijing and had lived in the Northeast when he was young. After the show, he insisted on taking Qin Jue to the street for a drink. Qin Jue chatted with him and heard some gossip from him, which made him laugh.

It turned out that apart from Jiang Shuming's own connections, most of the people in the "Cage" crew came here just to make a living. Their psychological expectations were not that high to begin with. However, once they joined the crew, they found that not only was the director working very hard, but there were also no problems from the actors from top to bottom, and all work went smoothly. They thought it was a good opportunity, so they might as well do their jobs conscientiously and get more bonuses from Jiang Shuming.

"Director Jiang is really generous." Qin Jue drank two bottles of beer and helped Lao Qian back. The Canhua Film and Television Base did not stop even at night. Not far away, there were bright lights. It was obvious that they were filming all night. The two of them walked slowly with their backs to the light.

"Yes, actually, there aren't many good movies these days." Lao Qian has a good alcohol tolerance and is very sober. "Xiao Lang, you don't know why some things don't look good when the action is filmed. When a stunt double is used, there are no close-ups. When a close-up is used, the actors are too tired or ugly, so few of the few takes are usable. When the editor gets the footage, they think, well, there's only this much material, how can we edit it? The final result is a weird mess."

There was no one around them, and Lao Qian's voice was soft, so Qin Jue didn't interrupt him.

"You, Teacher Qi, and Teacher Cen are really good." Old Qian is very familiar and a bit talkative. "Xiao Qi has been a stuntman for many years, and I don't praise him much. But Teacher Cen is really dedicated to his job."

"Well, Brother Cen also started out as a martial artist." Qin Jue nodded.

"You didn't hear our private conversation." Old Qian said cheerfully, "Teacher Cen's stunt double is almost out of food."

Qin Jue laughed. She had heard Cen Yi confess that he was aiming for the Best Actor award for this movie, so he acted with all his might, and everyone noticed his efforts.

"Okay, I've stopped chatting with you. Go to bed, young man. You need to sleep more to grow. You can come tomorrow afternoon." When Lao Qian arrived, he waved to her.

"Well, try to come early." Qin Jue nodded.

She found a small hotel outside the film and television city. It cost about 130 yuan a night, which was very cheap. The facilities in the room were also worth the price. They didn't have anything that was not necessary.

After a few hours of hard work, Qin Jue opened his eyes in the morning light, and he looked completely exhausted.

She picked up her fully-charged cell phone, reviewed yesterday's lessons, bought a bag of buns on the way, and ate while rushing to the crew.

It wasn't a very busy day, so Cen Yi sent a message to Qin Jue and she went to the dressing room first.

Qi Qingyuan was also in the dressing room. Wu Ang was putting makeup on him. When she saw Qin Jue coming, she pulled her ear and made a pin-style ear bone stud for Qi Qingyuan in the same position.

"Real people are better. I'm always afraid of mistakes in the angles in photos." After Wu Ang finished her makeup, the group went downstairs to the set. On the way, Wu Ang started chatting with Qin Jue.

"Langlang, do you want to make up for it?" she asked.

"No, I came here to help with the team and gain some experience." Qin Jue replied, "I had some things to do outside not long ago, so Director Jiang asked me to come directly to Sucheng."

"I know." Wu Ang smiled, "You are in the United States, right?"

"Well, how did you know?" Qin Jue just finished asking, and then he realized, "The video of me singing was uploaded to the Internet?"

There are no restrictions on the Internet between Blue Star countries, but Dragon Country is vast and has a large population, so people are more accustomed to using their own country's social media, and the external network can also be viewed at any time.

"You guessed it right!" Wu Ang winked at her, "You are very popular on the Internet now!"

"Really?" Qin Jue didn't pay attention and took Wu Ang's phone and took a look.

Wow, recently a young man from Longguo lent his voice tenderly in New York's Times Square... Qin Jue found the title a little funny.

"But your songs are really nice! Where can I download them?" Wu Ang asked.

"It's not written by me." Qin Jue answered immediately, "I met a few online composers when I was arranging music before, and I just covered their works."

"Is that so?" Wu Ang did not doubt him and continued, "Then can you record a sound source when you have time? If you want to listen to the songs, you have to watch the videos. Some of the sound quality is average. It's too difficult."

Qin Jue was a little surprised: "Is it really popular?"

"Student Qin Xiaolang, please have some confidence in your own ability and the strength of the song." Wu Ang said happily, "Go and have a look when you have time. It's really popular! There are also many people paying attention to it in China."

"Oh, right!" She suddenly remembered, "I have reposted the relevant V blog. Well, it's mainly because you are so easy to recognize. I can tell at a glance that I have put on makeup. Your fans have been calling for you to comment on the official V of the crew for several days."

"Ah..." Qin Jue recalled and realized that her Weibo comments had never been opened.

In the apocalypse, these communication devices are all used for military purposes. They are only used when discussing serious matters. They are kept on standby at other times to prevent loss of communication in emergencies. She has long been accustomed to this and often forgets that we are now living in a harmonious society and the Internet is more efficient in entertainment.

"And you've never been in business before!" Wu Ang was very disappointed. "Come on, I'll help you with your hairstyle when we get to the set."

"That's not necessary." Qin Jue smiled and shook his head, "It's all finished, it's not good to show off your presence."

"It's no big deal!" Wu Ang said, "No one knows you've finished filming. Besides, what if you really need to add a few more takes?"

"That's right, Xiao Qin, don't be so low-key." Cen Yi, who got into the nanny car, called them to get in and said with a smile.

Qi Qingyuan also nodded silently.

It would be a shame not to continue at this time. Qin Jue smiled and Ren Wuang picked up the makeup brush.

Qin Jue lived a very regular life in the following days. He stayed on the crew for eight to ten hours during the day, attended classes and took notes in his spare time, picked a song from the APP every day to practice transcribing and arranging the music, and when he was tired, he opened his Weibo and replied to fans in the comments.

Fans say all kinds of weird things. Some are sincere like little mirrors, while others compliment Qin Jue on how handsome he is or use the official V of the crew to make jokes. She basically replies to any message that is convenient for her. Although her words are brief, she reads every one of them.

Jiang Shuming believes in being busy first and then relaxing when filming. In "The Cage", the protagonist Ji Sheng meets many different kinds of people while investigating a case. There are a lot of small supporting roles, some of whom are second- and third-tier actors, and some are unknown eighteen-tier actors. It was very troublesome to adjust the schedule, so Jiang Shuming simply moved all these scenes forward. The crew worked in a tight and fast pace for two and a half weeks and finally finished this episode.

The following scenes were basically rivalry between the leading actors. The temporary workers and extras paid their wages and left, and the studio was suddenly empty. Qin Jue had also finished his acting theory class, and now, together with Cen Yi's book "An Actor's Self-cultivation" and several useful books recommended by Jiang Shuming, he entered the second round of review and detailed reading.

When she had nothing to do on the set, she would sit cross-legged in a corner and take notes.

When the last minor supporting role was finished, the atmosphere on the set suddenly lightened, as if the whole family had finally seen off the guests who came for the New Year. The remaining actors were all selected by Jiang Shuming himself, so communication was smoother and the atmosphere between them was good.

After finishing a scene that day, the crew had to re-set the scene and the actors were taking a break. Cen Yi pulled Qin Jue over from the corner and introduced her to the other main actors of the crew.

Apart from Cen Yi and Qi Qingyuan, there are only three actors with more roles in "The Cage". One is Ji Sheng's uncle Ji Tao, played by veteran actor Xu Qiushi, one is a middle-aged woman named Lin Rujuan, played by Zhao Shujing, who is the owner of a wonton shop in the play, and finally her little gangster daughter Lin Ling, played by Lin Xiaohan.

Qin Jue had met these people on the set before, but he had never greeted them formally.

Cen Yi briefly introduced the actors, and finally patted Qin Jue on the shoulder and said, "This is Qin Xiaolang, who plays the young Chi Na."

"It's Qin Jue." Qin Jue said with a smile, tacitly agreeing with Qin Xiaolang's joke.

She looked at Zhao Shujing, an actress who was nearly 40 years old, with a plump figure and great charm. She was a very popular sexy actress.

Seeing Qin Jue's eyes on her figure, Cen Yi reached out and rubbed her head, jokingly saying, "Young man, be a gentleman. You know your sister Zhao is pretty, but don't stare at her so intently."

These words reminded Qin Jue and helped Zhao Shujing out of the predicament at the same time, which was very graceful.

Qin Jue came back to his senses and smiled: "Well, Sister Zhao is very beautiful."

However, she did not observe any taboos between men and women, and said frankly: "Sister Zhao has a great figure. Do your shoulders usually get tired?"

In the late apocalypse, her genes were optimized and her female body characteristics were restored. Even though her breasts were not big, she had to tighten them when running or fighting, otherwise her shoulders would droop, affecting her center of gravity and movement efficiency.

When Qin Jue asked this question, his eyes were very clear, without any shyness of a little boy or sexual fantasy of an adult man. Zhao Shujing was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed.

"That's right." She said with a frown, "Doing housework is tiring and a bit of a hindrance."

"Look at what you guys talked about today. How should we respond?" Cen Yi laughed again, "Let's go, let's go. I won't bother you here anymore." After saying that, he walked to the side with Xu Qiushi and Qi Qingyuan.

Zhao Shujing and Qin Jue laughed together, and the little girl Lin Xiaohan also laughed. Qin Jue looked clearly like a young boy, but somehow he blended in with these two people without any sense of incongruity.

"Sister Zhao, please buy a few more robot vacuum cleaners for the family." Qin Jue watched Cen Yi and the other men walk away, then turned around and chatted, "You have a great figure, but the proportions aren't right." She even gestured at her chest, "Your center of gravity is unstable, and it's easy to fall when you lean forward."

Lin Xiaohan chuckled and said, "How can you talk like that, Qin Xiaolang?"

She felt full of complaints, but couldn't tell what was wrong, so she leaned against Zhao Shujing and laughed.

"It's true." Qin Jue said frankly.

Zhao Shujing looked at her and smiled: "Yes, it's the truth."

He added: "But it's rare to hear people talk about these things directly."

Qin Jue nodded: "I can see that. But I don't think it's inconvenient. Women's breasts and buttocks are organs after all, and so are men's. These organs are given some extra meanings and attract a lot of ulterior motives. Sometimes it is offensive, yes, but if you retreat and avoid suspicion because of these disgusts, wouldn't it be a loss?"

Zhao Shujing's figure is so good, with a curvy figure and exaggerated breasts that will attract the attention of both men and women at first sight. But what Qin Jue admires is that she never subconsciously shrinks her shoulders and chest because her figure is too eye-catching. Instead, she shows it off openly and is full of confident beauty.

Qin Jue had heard dirty words from the workers and extras more than once. Zhao Shujing had been very glorious in the past few years with her outstanding figure. She must have faced many such dirty words, but she still insisted on being herself, not deliberately flattering, nor timidly covering up. A good figure is a good figure, and good-looking is good-looking. What's wrong with showing it?
"Cen Yi is right." Zhao Shujing smiled, "You are indeed likable."

"People who like to hear the truth generally think that I'm an okay person." Qin Jue said bluntly.

Zhao Shujing and Lin Xiaohan laughed together.

They are both women, but their temperaments are completely different. Zhao Shujing has a hot body but is gentle as water, while Lin Xiaohan is more innocent, but not a little white flower. Instead, she is a little cunning and flamboyant, with a fearless little devil feeling.

"Then Langlang, look at me." Lin Xiaohan smiled, deliberately puffed out his chest and winked at Qin Jue.

Qin Jue didn't look away: "Forget about teasing, I have a family."

Lin Xiaohan laughed again: "Really~"

"Yes, really." Qin Jue nodded.

He also said: "After all, there are very few serious people like me. It is better for girls not to tease others with their bodies on purpose. It does not mean that women must avoid suspicion in the social and cultural environment, but we must be on guard against others."

The tone was too old-fashioned, and Lin Xiaohan smiled and took Zhao Shujing's arm.

"After all, there are very few serious people like you...hahahahaha..." Lin Xiaohan laughed so hard that he couldn't stop laughing.

"Am I not serious?" Qin Jue asked seriously.

"Hahahahahahahaha…" Lin Xiaohan continued to be tickled by her funny bone, and Zhao Shujing also laughed.

They both have their own beauty. Everyone loves beauty. Qin Jue is also half a face control and he is looking at them with a smile.

Cen Yi, who was not far away, looked suspiciously at the three people who were in a lively atmosphere here, and sighed like an old father:
"This kid, I really can't tell..."

He is so good at making girls happy, what will he be like when he grows up? ?
(End of this chapter) Chapter 33 Daily Life on the Crew (Part 2) (Please vote for recommendation)

Qin Jue was integrated into the crew of "The Cage" again. She came here voluntarily and did not ask for any salary. She usually worked as a lighting assistant, martial arts instructor, and odd jobs on the set, ordering and serving meals. Apart from anything else, she gained a lot of experience. By the way, she scared the gossipy workers who had plotted against her behind her back so much that they came to her one after another to show their courtesy.

In addition, unlike others, Qin Jue is the only one who has nothing to do and can go to listen to Jiang Shuming's talk about acting. Cen Yi is a typical good student in the crew, who can talk to the director for a long time about a small detail. Lin Xiaohan is a girl idol who changed her career to acting and also needs Jiang Shuming's advice and guidance. Every time Qin Jue stands next to these two people, she looks like a freeloader, so Cen Yi and Lin Xiaohan each blackmailed her for a box of pocky.

I don't know why, but I became addicted to holding Pocky in my mouth, and it gradually spread from person to person in the crew of "The Cage".

After a few days, even Jiang Shuming and Lao Qian had one in their mouths.

"It's good. It's much better than sending cigarettes to each other."

Zhao Shujing joked on the set. She is a native of Suzhou and has a soft voice that is enjoyable just to listen to.

"Sister Zhao doesn't like the smell of cigarettes?" Qin Jue liked to chat with her and would come over to her from time to time.

Zhao Shujing forced a smile: "It doesn't matter whether the actress likes it or not."

She said this in a very calm tone, Qin Juepin sensed the taste and sighed softly, "Sister Zhao, you have worked hard."

"We all come out to work and earn money, so hard work is inevitable." Zhao Shujing still smiled gently.

Although Qin Jue is young, he doesn't look like a young boy. His eyes are particularly clear and bright. Zhao Shujing likes these eyes and is willing to chat with him more.

"That's different." Qin Jue said seriously, "Acting is like rolling in the mud, performing a summer play in the snow, the hard work is deserved."

"But on the set and at dinner parties, enduring the discomfort of smelling cigarettes is not just hard work, it's being wronged."

Zhao Shujing smiled softly: "So what? There will always be these accessories."

Her helplessness is very common, and can be found in female employees in any industry. In contrast, Zhao Shujing seems to have experienced a lot and is more open-minded, so she just laughs it off and does not add unnecessary trouble to herself.

As Qin Jue came into contact with Zhao Shujing more and more, he felt that this woman had a very tranquil temperament, a sense of sedimentation that only comes after experiencing the world, mature, but not vicissitudes of life. However, if you search the name "Zhao Shujing" on the Internet, what comes up are either obscene words or various scandals and unspoken rules in her past experiences. It seems that everyone's eyes are attracted by her hot body, and they take it for granted that she is frivolous and dissolute, and no one pays attention to what she looks like.

In a recent set of magazine photos she took on her Weibo, even though the photos were of gentle homely styles, there were comments like "XX married woman" and "She looks like a mistress who has entered the house. Who is she pretending to be for?"

Another director once commented on her: Her success is due to her sexiness, and her failure is also due to her sexiness.

"Sister Zhao." Qin Jue did not continue the previous topic, but asked, "Do you want to quit the circle?"

Zhao Shujing was surprised, glanced at her and smiled: "It seems quite obvious?"

Qin Jue nodded.

Zhao Shujing was a popular actress after all, but she didn't even have a few assistants in the "Cage" crew, let alone the makeup and hair styling team that actresses have. She was very dedicated when filming, but it didn't seem like she had any ambitions, more like she was fulfilling a long-cherished wish. With all these factors combined, it's easy to guess.

"Yes, "The Cage" is my last drama." Zhao Shujing pursed her lips and smiled. "I have suffered a lot and made enough money over the years." She smiled and blinked, her expression still playful like a little girl. "After the filming is over, I will go back to my hometown and open a flower shop."

Qin Jue didn't say anything else, just nodded: "Tell me the address after the opening, I will go to buy flowers."

"Okay." Zhao Shujing smiled.

She still has a few final scenes in the crew. Jiang Shuming's casting is truly excellent. In the play, Lin Rujuan, the proprietress of a wonton shop, lost her husband early in life, and raised her daughter Lin Ling alone, suffering a lot. She has the tactfulness and cowardice common among ordinary people, especially middle-aged women, but also has the perseverance tempered by life in her bones. At the same time, because of her beauty and charm, she often passively attracts some questionable people.

Looking at Lin Rujuan and then looking at Zhao Shujing, Qin Jue sometimes felt as if they were the same person on the set.

The opposite of her is Lin Xiaohan, a teenage idol. In her own words, "she is so obscure that she can't even make waves." She joined her current entertainment company after finishing junior high school. The company is very small and has very few resources. It was not easy to launch a teenage idol group to debut with the momentum of the past few years, but the publicity and packaging are not in place. Not to mention the 36th line, even the 72nd line is overestimated.

"That's it! Those girls in the group are still fighting for it." Lin Xiaohan was chatting with Qin Jue and Wu Ang at that time, and he complained while eating melon seeds.

"What are you robbing? Resources?" Qin Jue asked.

"Right." Lin Xiaohan finished eating some melon seeds, used his foot to pull the trash can over, scattered the shells and patted the crumbs on his hands, "It's actually quite boring, but I understand. If we don't do something, we won't be able to afford to cook. The company is shady, and we can't afford to pay the penalty."

"Then how did you get here?" Wu Ang was curious.

"I wanted to come here on my own!" Lin Xiaohan raised her head, very proud, "Really, those sisters in my group are too narrow-minded."

She counted on her fingers, "As for the lead dancer, she played the second female lead in a particularly obscure costume TV series. As for the lead singer, she participated in a singing talent show alone, with a lot of shady dealings. As for the frontman, she was a guest on a variety show, but that variety show was also obscure, and there were weird plans everywhere. They loved to do some heavy-tasting and evil pranks. I think it was all in vain."

"It sounds pretty miserable." Wu Ang touched his chin and sighed, "Compared to that, The Cage is pretty good."

"Where?" Lin Xiaohan laughed, "You don't know, they feel sorry for me behind my back."

She thought about her role setting and sighed, "Listen, a bad girl from a single-parent family who quarrels with her mother every day, a girl who was almost raped by a gangster, and got pregnant after taking someone to a hotel. Oh, how can a teenage idol take such a role? To be honest, this role was passed around by the three of them before it came to me, and I just picked up the leftovers."

"Indeed, your vision is narrow." Qin Jue suddenly interjected.

Lin Xiaohan burst out laughing: "Really?"

"Their concerns are reasonable." Wu Ang has been in the industry a little longer than the other two. "Idols rely on their image. Even if you want to transform into an actress, once the public impression is set, it will be difficult to switch to a popular heroine."

"I don't care." Lin Xiaohan waved his hand. "When I read the script, I felt that Lin Ling's character was full and three-dimensional, which also required her acting skills. Her character is not very likable, but she has her own characteristics! Besides, it's Jiang Shuming's movie. Even if I look bad, I have worked with Director Jiang. Isn't it much better than them if I tell others about it?"

"You are so brave." Wu Ang said sincerely.

"Lin Ling is fine." Qin Jue talked about something else.

"Yeah! I think it's good too!" Lin Xiaohan's smile was still as lawless as ever. "Although the scale is very large, her experience, especially her love with Chi Na, is really..." She thought for a long time and sighed, "It's quite special."

"It's difficult to act well." Qin Jue nodded.

"That's right—" Lin Xiaohan felt that she had met Qin Jue too late, and said with a bitter face, "Hey, Director Jiang is really good at teaching, he is careful and patient, but I am not good enough."

"It's okay, take your time." Wu Ang comforted him, "Brother Qi's literary acting was not very good at first, and it was all taught by Director Jiang."

"Yeah." Lin Xiaohan nodded listlessly and looked up at Qin Jue, "Xiaolang, was it also difficult for you to film at that time?"

Qin Jue pondered for two seconds.

"It's difficult."

It is indeed difficult to control yourself from beating someone to death.

Lin Xiaohan narrowed his eyes: "I suspect you are lying to me."

"No." Qin Jue said seriously, "I have few roles to begin with, so it's easy for me."

"Okay." Lin Xiaohan pouted, picked up the script and started memorizing the lines.

The shooting that day was not smooth, but it didn't take too long. Jiang Shuming showed great patience in training the actors, and the actors were all focused on their performances, without being arrogant or perfunctory. Jiang Shuming said at the dinner table after the show, "This is much less stressful than usual shootings, at least the tiredness is in the right way", and the main creative staff nodded with emotion.

The second day's filming was all literary scenes, and Qin Jue, the action consultant, was not needed. She asked for leave from Jiang Shuming in advance, and the latter let her go home to rest.

"Combine work with rest. Of course, don't rest too much." Jiang Shuming waved his hand and said, "Xiaolang, there is still a lot of room for improvement in your literary acting. This can only be achieved through practice."

When he was teaching Lin Xiaohan these days, he often asked Qin Jue to rehearse together.

"Yeah. I know."

Qin Jue nodded and said goodbye. The reason she asked for leave this time was to improve her literary acting skills.

After jogging back to the community where the apartment was located, Qin Jue went straight to the express cabinet, dragged out a large box that was as tall as a person from the bottom layer, carried it on his shoulder and brought it back to his residence.

She cut open the seal of the box with a few strokes and took out the things inside one after another.

There were many steel plates, and at the bottom were two packages of accessories. The big package contained soft leather straps, and the small package contained buckles, pins, screws and other parts.

Qin Jue stared silently for a few seconds and started to assemble it.

This is a limb restraint used on mentally ill patients.

It consists of shoulder straps, chest straps, waist straps and leg straps, which are parallel and connected by longitudinal connecting straps. The chest straps extend out from the arm fixing straps, while the waist straps and leg straps are fixed by buckles and firmly stuck together with the connecting blocks on the steel bed.

Qin Jue had undergone genetic optimization, so he was stronger than an ordinary person. His explosive power would be even stronger when he was sadistic. To achieve results, he had to use the strongest binding material. Fortunately, she had learned a lot from her dog, and her hacking skills were not bad either, so she successfully obtained a self-use binding device through various channels on the Internet.

From now on, she would try to use her own willpower to fight against the desire to kill.

Ha, this rubbish system thinks that if you leave a piece of your inner demon to her before you die, it will not be too late for a gentleman to take revenge?

Dream on!

Qin Jue was able to shatter the subsystem with her mental power in the apocalypse. After her rebirth, how could evil thoughts devour her? !

No matter how painful the process is, she always believes that success depends on human effort!

(End of this chapter) Chapter 34 Filmmakers (Seeking recommendation votes)

The placement of the restraints was not a spur-of-the-moment decision. In addition to exercising willpower, there is another reason.

The story begins a few days ago.

After Qin Jue finished reading the acting tutorial compiled by Sen Ran, he learned a lot in theory. But acting, as Jiang Shuming said, still depends on practice. Sen Ran was thoughtful, and Qin Jue also found the corresponding section in the APP, which divided the literary drama into many categories, including but not limited to extroverted (roaring, hysterical, wailing, etc.) and restrained (eye acting, micro-expressions, etc.). Even for "crying" and "laughing", there are nearly a hundred follow-up videos, equipped with detailed clip appreciation and detail analysis.

Qin Jue noticed that there was a button-style icon on the practice section page with "Use with caution" written on it. After clicking on it, the first thing that appeared was a page of warnings left by Sen Ran.

That is the new function derived from Mori Ran after digesting the system: illusion.

In the message, Sen Ran directly stated that she had a fixed algorithm that could allow Qin Jue's spirit body to enter the illusion. Whether it was entering the film resources or calling up his own memory data, this algorithm could create a virtual space that was almost real in the illusion. In other words, Qin Jue could practice his acting skills in the illusion and learn from those excellent actors face to face.

But at the same time, the hidden dangers are also obvious.

One of the lessons of surviving in the apocalypse is to seek truth from facts and not to show off one's prowess. Qin Jue has never avoided the trauma caused by illusions. Although she was extremely determined when facing the system, she would kill all the illusions, but that was what she had to do at the time, and she had to hold on to the end.

After being reborn, she felt relieved. When Qin Jue was overwhelmed with the desire to kill, the scene of her slaughtering her comrades and companions with her own hands often appeared in front of her eyes. In short, she had a serious psychological trauma.

Sen Ran evaluated and analyzed her condition. In her report, she believed that after Qin Jue used the virtual film and television space to hone his acting skills, there was nearly a 70% chance that he would be aroused to commit sadomasochism. Sen Ran was not by her side at the moment, so she could not use methods such as infusing her body with soul strength. Once he got out of control, the consequences would be as serious as one could imagine.

Qin Jue breathed a sigh of relief, and after briefly weighing the pros and cons, he decided to give it a try.

That's why she bought the strap-on.

After installing the steel bed, she deliberately added two more layers of reinforcement. After changing into pajamas, she lay on the bed and tightened the restraints herself.

Afterwards, Qin Jue calmed himself down, put the phone behind his neck, and triggered the switch of the virtual space with his voice.

The illusion unfolded instantly.

Almost in an instant, Qin Jue's spirit tensed up.

She watched the surroundings slide and fade like blocks of paint, quickly creating a bright, daylight-filled living room.

"Clang clang! Acting assistant Mori Xiaoran is at your service!"

The light spots next to the sofa gathered to form a girl with black eyes and phoenix eyes. She was Mori Ran's virtual image.

Qin Jue's nerves relaxed a little and he nodded with a smile.

"Please select the training program you need here~" Sen Xiaoran raised her hand, and a light screen appeared in the air, which was basically an enlarged version of the mobile phone page. Watching these pictures slide back and forth with his gaze, Qin Jue inexplicably had the illusion that he was playing an immersive game.

She selected a sub-item in the external speaker category, and the scene changed again, taking her to the corresponding video.

…

Bang!
Qin Jue screamed a few times from between her teeth. Her eyes were bloodshot, her face was distorted, and she tried to break free with all her strength like a madman.

The steel bed that was firmly embedded in the wall and the ground even made a crisp sound due to her fierce struggle, and it kept clanging, which made people even more irritated to hear.

"ah-"

A low growl escaped from Qin Jue's throat, and she kept repeating "Seventh Military Advisor", "Little Fox", and the lines she had memorized recently. It was not until nearly two hours had passed that she suddenly relaxed and lay motionless in the restraints, her whole body drenched in sweat.

It took her a while to come back to her senses.

After letting out a long breath, Qin Jue felt depressed and exhausted. He simply didn't untie himself and fell asleep on the steel bed.

The next day.

Less than two seconds after the alarm rang, Qin Jue opened his eyes quickly.

She slept deeply and dully, and when she woke up, she felt as if she had been hit by two sticks, and her head was dizzy. The restraints were too tight, and she gritted her teeth as she tried to touch the buckle under the bed. Even though she was awake, it took her at least ten minutes to reach that tricky position and unfasten the buckle with a snap.

The restraints were extremely elastic, and the moment they were loosened, several of the straps bounced up and seemed to be about to fly up. The shoulder strap hit Qin Jue's face hard, and she smiled helplessly.

She got up and changed her slightly damp pajamas first, then wiped the steel bed and the restraints. Qin Jue sat on the edge of the bed, pinching a few buckles and observing them for a while. After just one use, the wear and tear was quite serious. This was when she deliberately used her willpower to restrain herself. It seemed that she was struggling quite violently, and he had to prepare more parts for timely replacement.

Qin Jue took a leave of absence that day and could stay at home for the whole day. She went to the bathroom in her slippers to fill the bathtub with water and wash herself. After brushing her teeth, she sneezed suddenly. Her usually clear mind was still confused. Qin Jue reached out and touched his forehead. It should be a cold.

Yes, she slept all night in sweat, and her pajamas were soaked and damp, making it easy for her to catch a cold.

Even if the genes have been optimized, it does not mean that you can avoid the attack of diseases. Especially Qin Jue has been torturing himself in various ways for the audition of "Daytime Rain". During this period of time, his immunity must have dropped a lot, so it is understandable that he caught a cold.

She blew her nose and felt that the accident came at the right time. The male protagonist of "Daytime Rain", Mossen, was thin and had no muscles. Her illness just happened to further weaken her body.

After reporting to the crew, Qin Jue's vacation was extended by two days. She took a comfortable hot bath, ate something, and lay back on the steel bed. With the idea that she must do it to the end and it would be a huge loss if she didn't take the opportunity to work hard during the vacation, she once again entered the virtual space.

Two days passed in a flash.

After all, Qin Jue had a good foundation, and the high-intensity illusion acting practice did not make her cold worse. The virus came and went quickly, and when she re-entered the crew, she was as good as ever, with a normal look on her face.

However, the high-intensity training has increased her mental strength. Although the changes are extremely subtle, Qin Jue has experience and can feel that his current soul strength is slowly increasing and is different from the previous situation.

If her soul strength in the apocalypse went from a cup to a basin and then to a bucket, now her capacity has returned to the level of a cup, but the quality of the water inside is more refined than before.

Perhaps it was because the apocalyptic space was filled with soul projections, and the body and soul were not united, which made the soul seem weaker than reality. Or perhaps it was because those few times of self-abuse and forced infusions broke free from the shackles of the body, providing the possibility for a qualitative improvement.

Qin Jue had several speculations and also assessed his own situation, so he continued to toss his wings on the edge while ensuring his safety.

Although she had lost a lot of weight, she was not out of shape. In addition, everyone put on more clothes in late October, so it was not too noticeable from the outside.

It is worth mentioning that her acting skills have improved by leaps and bounds, especially in literary dramas. Jiang Shuming has seen many talented and spiritual actors, and he couldn't help but be surprised by her progress.

"Oh my god, you're a monster."

In contrast, Lin·Even worse·Xiao Han had a sad face: "The autumn maple leaves are covered with red snow, it turns out that I am the loser."

As expected of a girl group rapper, her singing is quite rhyming.

Qin Jue was amused and patted her head: "Come, let's study together."

"Okay, okay." Lin Xiaohan came over with her palm-sized notebook, whispering to Qin Jue as if she was copying the class representative's homework.

Xu Qiushi, the actor who played Jiang Shuming and Ji Tao, saw this and smiled with satisfaction and emotion.

"The Cage will be a good movie."

Xu Qiushi looked at Lin Xiaohan and Qin Jue, then turned to look at Cen Yi and Qi Qingyuan who were treating their wounds, and felt very emotional for a moment.

"yes."

Jiang Shuming let out a long breath, turned around and picked up the loudspeaker, "Lighting! Lighting, come over here, and the props team..."

Everyone gave their best to this film in their own way.

Chapter 35 Daily Life of the Crew (Part 3) (Seeking Recommendation)
Qi Qingyuan's fighting scenes were designed by Lao Qian and Qin Jue. The scenes were both impactful and realistic. Jiang Shuming played them back several times in front of the monitor and nodded vigorously: "Passed!"

Lao Qian and Cen Yi cheered out of respect. Qin Jue and Qi Qingyuan raised their hands at the same time. Both of them were quiet and focused on participating.

After taking a break and eating something at noon, Lin Xiaohan came out of the dressing room, supporting her waist with both hands and walking carefully.

These are the scenes where Lin Ling becomes pregnant.

Qin Jue's brows tightened, his pupils shrank, and he went over to help her in silence, but was teased by Lin Xiaohan instead.

"It's a prop! It's full of fabric." She touched her round belly.

"Um."

Qin Jue just nodded and didn't say much.

The first time she came into close contact with a pregnant woman was in the end of the world. At that time, the system had not yet pretended to announce the server and they had just established an initial base. There was a couple in the 27th team, and during that rare period of peace and quiet, the woman became pregnant.

That was the first little life in their team. It was conceived in the difficult end times, but it gave everyone hope and strength for a new life.

The environment was harsh at the time, and women lost some of their fighting power after becoming pregnant. The girl wanted to abort the child with tears in her eyes, but everyone persuaded her to stay.

The atmosphere of the entire base was thus refreshed. The appearance of newborns injected tremendous vitality into the stagnant and desperate life. People gradually realized that their resistance to zombies was not just self-protection, but a powerful counterattack made by mankind against desperate situations in order to rebuild a beautiful home in the midst of natural disasters and man-made disasters.

In the crazy zombie tide, the girl was protected by countless comrades until her pregnancy was full-term, when something strange happened.

The instrument showed that her child had been infected and died. Once born, a zombie king might be born in the camp.

Amid her husband's cries, the expectant mother took the gun herself and pulled the trigger on her belly.

The amniotic fluid broke, and the weird-looking zombies tore their skin and flesh and crawled out. The man rushed forward, screaming, picked up the dagger and stabbed them again and again. Finally, he knelt beside his dead wife and mutated child, going from hysterics to silent tears.

It was at that time that Qin Jue and Cheng Zheng noticed something was wrong. How could the virus spread silently during a ten-month pregnancy? Cheng Zheng decomposed the baby's corpse and was surprised to find that there was no trace of a soul in it.

Many years later, they uncovered the truth. It was because the entire apocalypse was an illusory space created by the system in order to raise poisonous insects and take over other people's bodies. There was no entity in this apocalyptic space, no combination of people, no fusion of sperm and eggs, and it was impossible for new life to be born.

The unborn baby was a conspiracy prepared by the system.

That was the first time that Qin Jue witnessed the destruction of blood and family affection. The fruit of human love was shattered just like that, from its appearance to its disappearance, a complete tragedy.

She closed her eyes tightly, forcing the memories that suddenly appeared before her eyes to dissipate, and helped Lin Xiaohan walk to the edge of the performance area.

This time the filming was real scene. In the dim and cramped rental house, Lin Ling, who was pregnant, lay on the bed groaning in pain, tortured by the strong pregnancy reaction.

Chi Na held her hand helplessly, wishing he could deliver the baby by cesarean section and let her carry it instead. He didn't know how to make his lover feel better.

In another scene, Lin Xiaohan looked haggard, his eyes were dazed, with a false smile on his face, and he tried to hold China's hand foolishly.

After a while, she began to breathe heavily in pain, her fingers tightly clasped on Chi Na's wrist, and she said incoherently: "Give it to me quickly, give it to me quickly..."

Her eye sockets were sunken and dark, her cheeks were sunken, and she had become so thin that she was out of shape.

She is taking drugs.

…

"Card!"

Lin Xiaohan suddenly propped himself up and coughed hard into the trash can.

"Oh my god, it was so hard to act out choking. I almost choked to death on my saliva!"

She coughed until she was retching, and Zhang Ming brought water to her mouth.

He was called from Shencheng by Qin Jue some time ago and is now her temporary assistant.

"Thank you for your hard work." Zhang Ming whispered to comfort her. Lin Xiaohan rinsed her mouth with water, said "It's okay" nonchalantly, and ran off the bed with her belly stuffed with props fabric, and went to see what Jiang Shuming had to say.

Qin Jue frowned fiercely.

She knew it was a prop, but she still felt nervous when she saw the pregnant girl running around.

Zhao Shujing, who was beside her, noticed her expression and patted her shoulder gently.

Qin Jue let out a small breath and forced a smile: "Thank you, Sister Zhao."

"It's really rare to have such a strong ability of empathy. He's a good child." Zhao Shujing smiled faintly.

Qin Jue tried hard to smile.

Lin Xiaohan's filming was finished today. She took off her props and makeup and went back to work. Her originally chubby cheeks became shriveled because of the filming, but she didn't seem to mind it and even said slyly, "It looks better on camera this way."

"Oh, we're leaving now."

After taking the wrap-up photos, Lin Xiaohan puffed out his cheeks, bowed while holding the bouquet, then rushed over to hug Zhao Shujing and rubbed against her.

"Children are quite clingy." Jiang Shuming said happily, "It's okay, we'll have another chance to meet again!"

The crew he leads has a routine where after the filming is finished, they will gather together with the main creators, like a team-building party, eating, drinking, and performing some random shows. He told everyone about this during the filming a few days ago.

"Okay!" Lin Xiaohan let go of Zhao Shujing and bowed to Jiang Shuming repeatedly.

"Thank you Director Jiang, thank you Brother Liu, thank you Brother Cen and Brother Qi..."

She bowed and retreated towards the nanny car, tears glistening in her big round eyes.

"Qin Xiaolang! Don't forget your music!"

Finally, Lin Xiaohan shouted crisply, with tears still on her face, but she was in a much better mood and got into the car happily.

Everyone watched her leave in the car. There was a night show that day, so everyone went back to set up.

Zhao Shujing and Qi Qingyuan were busy putting on makeup. Qin Jue sent Zhang Ming to help his brother Qi, and stood quietly on the sidelines alone.

She was in a bad mood today as she thought about old things.

[Wow, is that Xiaolang's back? He looks so handsome! ]

[Ah, I saw my brother-in-law. Brother Xuan, please stop being Brother Cen's assistant and make a solo debut#funny]

"Hey, who are you fans of?" Cen Yi looked up from his phone and said helplessly to his assistant Wang Xuan's phone camera, "Look, five out of ten comments are about other people. There's no love left."

[Hahahahahahaha, today's persecution of Boss Cen]

[What? Is this Cen Yi's V blog live broadcast? Didn't I come here to watch the behind-the-scenes footage of the "Cage" crew? (Dog head)

[Hahahahaha, that's right, Director Jiang's personal recommendation strongly requests that I give my protagonist a shot! ]

"Hey, you guys really are..."

Cen Yi couldn't help laughing. He glanced at Qin Jue standing beside him and walked towards her. "Come on, let me introduce our Qin Xiaolang to everyone - hey, wow!"

He raised his hand from behind and was about to pat Qin Jue on the shoulder, but suddenly Qin Jue's whole body tensed up, and he grabbed Cen Yi's wrist with his backhand, twisting, pulling, and pressing!
"?! Brother Cen?"

Qin Jue came back to his senses and quickly let go of his hand.

She was very familiar with Cen Yi's aura and had already classified him as an acquaintance. She was distracted and only subconsciously became alert and fought back when he approached her.

[? Why are you suddenly doing this? What does it mean?]

[Hahahahahaha Boss Cen's facial expression management is out of control]

[Just came in, who is this person? ]

[Wait, what happened?]

[Lao Cen, your expression has collapsed, please pay attention]

"Oh my god, did you see how powerful Xiaolang's fighting scenes are?"

Cen Yi saw the comments from the corner of his eye and reacted very quickly. He smiled at the camera, then put his arm around Qin Jue's shoulders and said with a smile, "Sorry, did I scare you by coming over so suddenly?"

Qin Jue just came back to his senses from the past, his body still tense, he smiled unnaturally when he heard this:

"I'm sorry, Brother Cen."

She opened her mouth, her eyes dimmed slightly, and her voice was not very loud, "I thought I, um, someone was going to hit me from behind."

"It's all right."

Cen Yi didn't feel offended at all. Instead, a trace of worry flashed across his face. He kept a smile on his face and tried to smooth things over during the live broadcast: "Come, let me introduce you. This is our Qin Xiaolang. He is really good at fighting! People with such good skills have strong alertness and reaction abilities due to long-term training. Everyone, remember not to suddenly pounce on him from behind, otherwise you will end up like me..."

[Hahahahahahahahahahaha Boss Cen is so miserable]

[Brother Cen, wake up! You are also a martial artist! Your martial arts teacher is about to cry!]

[Hey, is this a little wolf? ! Wow, so handsome! ! ]

[The little wolf looks so shy]

[Wow, I'm afraid of strangers! I remembered the repo of Brother Cen's fans! 】

[In front! Is this the repo of Moon on the Willows Girl? The one that Xiaolang gave me the same Pocky as Brother Cen!]

[Ahhh, I saw it too! Xiaolang is shy but so gentle! I became a fan because of that repo! ]

The barrage suddenly exploded, Cen Yi turned around and smiled and explained to the bewildered Qin Jue: "Look at the camera, that's it, I'm live streaming on Vb."

Qin Jue blinked: "Ah, live broadcast?"

[hhhhh I am dying of laughter, the little wolf is so silly, what's going on?]

[In addition to his reading notes and word check-ins, his previous V blogs only post photos every three days.]

[Oops, I sent it out before I finished playing. Maybe the 2G players didn't even know about live streaming hahahahahaha]

"Well, Vblog has a function that allows live broadcasting." Cen Yi said, "Fans will receive live broadcast notifications."

"Oh." Qin Jue nodded.

She used other social software before her rebirth, and after her rebirth she didn't pay much attention to the past memories in this body, and she was not familiar with Weibo.

[I am dying of laughter. Elderly contestant Cen Yi is giving a science talk to young people on V blog live broadcast]

[Hahahaha why is this so funny]

【What's wrong? Hey www】

[My boss Cen has always lagged behind surfing athletes, but one day he can teach others about science! ]

[Lao Cen! You have made it! ]

"See? What does pink as black mean?" Cen Yi raised his phone to share the comments with Qin Jue.

【Hello little wolf, look at me, look at me!】

【Lang Lang—】

【Qin! Xiao! Lang! Post a Vblog!】

【Little Wolf Little Wolf Little Wolf is about to open for business! 】

Seeing her looking at the phone, the barrage of comments immediately exploded, layer upon layer, covering up all the previous comments about Cen Yi.

Qin Jue uttered an "ah" and was about to step aside: "Sorry, Brother Cen, I..."

After all, it is Cen Yi's live broadcast, and it would not be good to overshadow the main event.

"Hmm? It's okay!"

Cen Yi patted the hand that was around her shoulders and said, "Such politeness, come and say hello to everyone."

"Hmm..." Qin Jue had never experienced this kind of scene where the elders enthusiastically asked him to greet other relatives during the New Year. He raised his hand and waved at the camera in Wang Xuan's hand, "Uh, hello everyone. I'm Qin Jue."

[Hahahahahaha Brother Wolf, you are so stupid]

[She is a silly beauty, i i i (dog head)]

[I am dying of laughter. Brother Cen just looked like my dad during Chinese New Year]

[Yes, yes, yes, "Hurry up and say hello to everyone!"]

[Hey, how old is this actor named Qin Jue? He looks so young]

[Hahahahahahaha what are you doing? Boss Cen is only seven months old]

[I think 19, see V blog information]

[That's right, what you said is the same as if Boss Cen's son is already this big]

"Oh, you guys." Cen Yi, a well-known gentle man in the circle, was used to being persecuted. He shook his head and sighed, "Okay, everyone, don't laugh at our little wolf. The kid is a good person, but a little shy. He is also half of the martial arts instructor in our "Cage"!"

"..." Qin Jue finally found his normal state and said helplessly, "Brother, don't wear a hat, you'll be bald."

"It's okay. Young people should be praised for doing a good job. If you don't believe me, I'll go interview Director Jiang later."

Cen Yi smiled.

"Director Jiang is adjusting the lights." Qin Jue said.

[It appears, it appears, Jiang Shuming is coming with his lamp! 】

[Hahahahahaha, Xiaolang already knows that Director Jiang adjusted the lights]

[#How much does Jiang Shuming love to adjust the lighting#]

"Forget it then." Cen Yi decisively gave up the idea. "Director Jiang's temper when he was disturbed while adjusting the lights was no less than your sister-in-law's temper when I woke her up in the morning."

Qin Jue looked at him strangely.

"Thank you, I'm full."

[Lang Lang is still a child, why feed him dog food!]

[Burp, I'm full too, I wish you a happy marriage, Brother Cen and Sister Cen.]

[Qin Xiaolang's expression: hhhhh, don't use your face like that! ! ]

[Little Wolf: The dog is showing off next to me]

"Hahaha." Cen Yi smiled and patted Qin Jue's shoulder. "Okay, I won't bother you anymore. You were in a bad mood just now, right? You're so into the show that you haven't come out of it yet?"

Qin Jue's expression warmed up, and he said with a smile: "It's out now, thank you Brother Cen."

"It's a good thing that actors can empathize."

Cen Yi rubbed her head, and Qin Jue smiled and didn't dodge.

"You take a rest first." Cen Yi said.

Qin Jue nodded obediently and watched him walk away.

"Oh, you're so engrossed in the drama because we're filming Xiaohan's scene today." Cen Yi's voice faded away. "Yes, it's Lin Xiaohan. The little girl works really hard in acting..."

Qin Jue's mood gradually relaxed. Just then, Zhang Ming came back and waved to him.

"Brother Qin!" Zhang Mingle ran over happily.

"I've got something for you to do tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Qin Jue said.

"Okay, Brother Qin, you go ahead."

"Go to this recording studio. Yes, right here, fill out the reservation form..."

Qin Jue watched Zhang Ming write the address down in the memo, and a Feixun message happened to pop up at the top of the screen.

[Lin Xiaohan]: The last time, the score, the score!
Qin Jue smiled and replied casually.

Chapter 36 Psychotherapy

The rest of the time passed quickly. It took the crew of "The Cage" a total of three months from the start of filming to the end. Zhao Shujing finished filming at the end of October. On November 6, Cen Yi, Qi Qingyuan and Xu Qiushi finished filming. Jiang Shuming officially announced the end of filming.

The publicity and promotion of "The Cage" has finally been fully launched. Originally, this movie was not well-received, but with the disclosure of stills and behind-the-scenes footage, everyone was surprised to find that Jiang Shuming seemed to be really serious this time, which inevitably aroused the curiosity and expectations of some people, and finally attracted two other investors besides Wu Ang's father, so there was money to take care of the publicity.

When Cen Yi accepted this role, he was jokingly called a self-deprecating child-rearing actor, because apart from him, the only actress with a large role and decent status was Zhao Shujing. Fans had advised him not to be such a pushover, but they didn't expect that after the fight footage between Qi Qingyuan and Qin Jue was released, the crowd saw that it seemed to be quite solid. Cen Yi finally stopped being repeatedly implied in interviews about "how does it feel to lead a newcomer?"

However, despite the increase in the number of followers, Qi Qingyuan and Qin Jue, two 18th-tier idols, did not cause any waves. Instead, fans of Xia Yuting, a small-time celebrity who only appeared once, had a dispute with fans of Lin Xiaohan. The reason was that Xia Yuting's fans mistook Qin Jue's hat-wearing back as her idol, and the behind-the-scenes photo happened to show Lin Xiaohan smiling at her, so the fans imagined that the female idol of a non-popular group was trying to gain popularity and stir up scandals to suck the blood of my brother, and they had a quarrel without any reason, which confused Lin Xiaohan and her female group's few fans.

"Look at this, you can tell how obscure I am." Lin Xiaohan was chewing something on the other end of the video call, mumbling, "People want to tear me apart, but I don't have enough fans to do anything about it."

"Isn't it nice not to have to make any trouble?"

Qin Jue was organizing his handwritten scores, stuffing several sheets of A4 paper into the folder one by one.

"That's the truth—" Lin Xiaohan dragged out the words, "But now everyone is black and red, and they can't even quarrel. You can tell at a glance that your traffic is too low and you are completely obscure. People don't care whether your fan circle is worry-free or not, they only care about whether it's popular or not."

"It's quite strange." Qin Jue commented.

"Is that so?" Lin Xiaohan nodded heavily.

"Okay, let's start." Qin Jue put on the music score, put on both headphones, and picked up the guitar.

"Hmmmm!"

Lin Xiaohan swallowed the last bite of salad, wiped his hands and mouth with a wet towel, and played a set of arpeggios on the electric piano.

Qin Jue nodded. The delay was very low and the rehearsal was ok.

…

The crew has agreed to have a team-building event in mid-November, and the auditions for "Rain in the Daytime" are at the end of November. Although there is not much to do, Qin Jue is still quite busy considering the preparations.

She paid Zhang Ming a generous salary and said it was okay for him to go back to his hometown to celebrate the New Year. However, Zhang Ming was very tactful and said that his parents had passed away and it would be awkward and uncomfortable for him to stay in the home of unfamiliar relatives. It would be better for him to stay in Su City so that Qin Jue could be there whenever he called.

But Qin Jue really didn't have anything that needed help. Her life was dull and routine. She transcribed music, practiced singing, and went to the film and television industry to practice her acting skills. When she was done, she would lie in the restraints for a few hours. When she was tired, she would sleep. When she was still energetic, she would get up and take a bath. She would open her Weibo and reply to fans' comments. There was nothing new.

Zhang Ming was also tactful and did not come to disturb him. He found a job with three meals provided at the film and television city, and was also a handyman in the crew. In view of his experience, the salary he got was quite good. Combined with the fixed salary given by Qin Jue, his food and accommodation were not a problem.

That day, Qin Jue put aside the arranging project and went out dressed.

She had an appointment today with the psychologist she had asked Cen Yi to find out about.

The doctor lived in Shanghai, not far from Suzhou. It only took a high-speed train to travel back and forth, so Qin Jue traveled light.

They made an appointment for 2pm at the doctor's residence.

Qin Jue rang the doorbell and waited patiently for a few minutes, then a woman in home clothes opened the door.

"You're here."

She smiled gently, treating him like a visiting guest rather than a patient, "Come in and sit down."

Qin Jue nodded.

This is a detached two-story villa with a spacious and bright living room and warm decoration. There are several vases and various styles of utensils on the coffee table, some of which are filled with flowers and some are empty. There are a few flowers and special pruning tools next to them.

"Thank you for your hard work on the journey." The woman smiled, invited Qin Jue to sit on the sofa, and poured a cup of warm water and handed it to her.

"Thank you, Sister Lu." Qin Jue took the cup of water and took a sip.

Her eyes fell on the coffee table. She knew that it was prepared by Dr. Lu, but she still cooperated and took the initiative to ask, "Sister Lu is arranging flowers?"

Doctor Lu glanced at her and said with a smile, "Yes, do you want to try it?"

"What can you tell from this?"

"If you think you can do it, then you can." Doctor Lu smiled gently.

Qin Jue put down the cup and leaned forward.

She was not familiar with the varieties of flowers, nor did she know much about the so-called flower language and allusions. After living in the apocalypse for a long time, her first reaction when she saw a plant was whether it was poisonous or not, and whether it could be used as medicine. Her second reaction was whether it had mutated, and whether she should dig one up and take it back to the Seventh Military Advisor for research. As for whether it was beautiful or rare, she no longer cared about it.

Qin Jue picked one of them, a bright red one with layers of petals and a gorgeous shape, in full bloom.

She picked up a pair of scissors, cut the branches into pieces, and put them into an uncovered rectangular earthenware container.

The container was two-thirds full of clear water, with short branches floating on the water. In a corner of the container, blooming flower buds were floating on the water, bright and eye-catching.

"What is your interpretation of it?" Dr. Lu asked softly.

Qin Jue stared at it for a while and said bluntly:
"Human bones and flowers blooming with blood."

She raised her head and Dr. Lu looked into her eyes tenderly.

"Do you think it's cruel?"

"It's cruel." Qin Jue said, "But it's beautiful."

"Will you be scared?"

Qin Jue paused.

"If I knew the name of this flower, I would."

Doctor Lu nodded slightly.

"Do you have anything to share with me?"

Qin Jue turned his head and glanced out the window.

The afternoon sun shines down, coating the window frames with a layer of warm color.

"The switch for the blinds is right here." Dr. Lu said softly.

"It doesn't matter."

Qin Jue retracted his gaze, put aside the long paragraph about the end of the world, and spoke at a moderate speed and in a flat tone, starting from the time when Qin Jingsheng went bankrupt.

Dr. Lu listened quietly, nodding occasionally.

"...Not long ago, the filming of "The Cage" was completed, that's it."

Qin Jue drank the water slowly.

She did not hide Qin Jingsheng's domestic violence and attempted murder, nor did she avoid Jiang Qiuyue's morbid psychology of injecting hormones and wanting a son. She also objectively described how she had been hanging out in the boxing ring when she was in junior high school and had recently placed her biological mother under house arrest.

Doctor Lu gave her another cup of warm water.

Qin Jue thanked him, and the two looked at each other in silence.

Dr. Lu is a very good-looking woman. She wears light makeup and it is difficult to tell her age at first glance. It seems reasonable to say that she is twenty, thirty, or forty years old. Her facial features are recognizable but not particularly stunning. The kind that leaves a deep impression on people, coupled with her calm and gentle temperament, can easily calm people down.

"You're still nervous."

Dr. Lu did not express his opinion immediately, but just spoke softly.

Qin Jue smiled and said, "Yeah. I'm very alert."

In a strange environment, with strange people, especially those who make her relax, her vigilance will only be higher.

"I imagine you've had a very difficult and dangerous time indeed."

Doctor Lu spoke softly, his voice was calm, his expression showed no emotion, and he was very gentle.

"That's true." Qin Jue nodded.

"Your experience has turned you into a bystander. I think there are both active and passive factors involved." Doctor Lu smiled, "You know your situation very well."

Qin Jue pondered for a while and nodded.

"Your description is objective and calm, including when you mention your emotions and state of mind. This is a kind of psychological self-protection.

"People will embellish or even imagine things they don't want to face. For example, a little girl who was molested will describe the molestation as a 'monster with guns in the lower body', thereby blurring the injury and making it seem like a fantasy, thus psychologically protecting herself from facing the trauma in reality.

"You are a very rational person, and you know which kind of self-protection is best for you. So you let yourself become a bystander, looking at it from an outsider's, third-party perspective. This is a very good way to deal with it, and it can make you stronger in your heart."

Doctor Lu smiled and continued, "However, the two sides of the matter determine that this approach still has its drawbacks."

Qin Jue listened quietly.

Doctor Lu said calmly, "I noticed that when you described these negative things, your temperament lacked 'humanity'. You were like a god without sadness or joy, looking coldly at your past self. This made you possess divinity but also lack some humanity."

"Your temperament and your life are all trying to create an illusion of 'I am a human being'. You pretend that you have a goal and work hard for it, and use it to convince yourself that 'this is how I am a living person'.

"But, Miss Qin, there is a heart that is still alive under your pretense."

Doctor Lu had a faint smile on his face and his eyes were gentle.

"When you mentioned filming, acting, the director, your co-stars, and the fans, your perspective was wonderfully divided into three levels.

"The first level is what you are most accustomed to, the perspective of God, without emotions; the second level is the closeness and affirmation that is appropriate for your age. When facing your seniors, you have a childlike admiration for them, and when facing your peers, you can also get along with them happily."

Qin Jue smiled: "What about the third floor?"

"The third level is what aroused my curiosity." Doctor Lu smiled faintly, "In this level, you are like an experienced old man. Even the director who is much older than you looks like a child in your perspective."

Qin Jue was slightly stunned, then smiled calmly and sighed, "As expected of you."

"You see, that's it."

Doctor Lu's gentle expression showed a subtle cunning, "You used honorifics. On the second level, you are a 19-year-old young man, showing courtesy and respect to older people."

"That's right." Qin Jue said with a smile, "I'm showing my cards. I was just pretending."

She is an old lady in her fifties and it is very hard for her to pretend to be young.

"Then from the third level's perspective, I must be a child too?" Doctor Lu chuckled.

"That's not the case." Qin Jue sighed and laughed, "Probably someone of the same generation."

"My pleasure." Doctor Lu nodded slightly.

She asked again: "So Miss Qin, what is your inner direction?"

Qin Jue reached out and picked up the flower bud floating on the water in the container and looked at it.

"The night Qin Jingsheng nearly beat me to death, I felt like I was reborn." She stated the truth cryptically, and said calmly, "My mental age is about 60 or 70, but my physical age is less than 20. As you can see, I tried to make myself behave more in line with my physical age, but haha, this actually brought me a lot of fatigue."

Qin Jue did not crush the flower, but gently put it back into the water.

She leaned back on the sofa and exhaled, "Old man, there is nothing I want to do. I am trying hard to find my goal and push myself forward. I can't stop. Once I stop, I don't know what to do or what the meaning of living is."

She let go of some of her aura, and although she still looked young, she suddenly looked very experienced.

Doctor Lu chuckled.

"Madam Qin, even though you say that, you are still very sharp and stubborn."

Qin Jue laughed loudly: "Old guys are always like this, they don't like to admit defeat, they are extremely stubborn."

"Then why don't you bring out this temperament?" Doctor Lu said with a smile, "Although your mentality is old, physiological factors will continue to have an impact."

She mentioned a few medical terms and some relevant literature. "At 19, your body, the physiological hormones and organ vitality will give you the power of youth. Although your mentality is at the third level, you should slowly let go and accept the present. The second and third levels coexist and are not in conflict."

Dr. Lu continued, "Also, back to the topic of divinity and humanity, I can sense that when you mention acting and fans, the human touch is stronger."

"And this is something I admire very much. Even though you have a sad and kind heart, you still have a strong sense of empathy and compassion."

Qin Jue blinked slowly and agreed.

"Although you seem reluctant to admit it - can I ask, is this also a form of self-protection, or are you feeling a little ashamed because of the old man's face?" asked Dr. Lu.

Qin Jue was somewhat amused, but also somewhat helpless: "It's a bit of both."

"I guess the image of me just now must be that of a naughty child in your eyes." Dr. Lu said with a smile.

Qin Jue nodded in a mature manner, with a smile that showed the indulgence typical of an elder.

"You are really special." Doctor Lu's eyebrows were soft and his tone was gentle. "Even though you have become old due to experience and experience, your soul is still interesting and gentle."

"…Alas."

When Qin Jue heard this, his facial muscles twisted and his old face turned red.

Dr. Lu laughed out loud this time: "I don't think there's any need to talk any more, Miss Qin, please try to be more humane."

She smiled and said, "I can see that you have regarded acting as a part of your life and career. You respect this profession, respect the story in the script, and have a certain degree of interest in it. This is very beneficial."

"I don't have any more suggestions, except that you can try not to be too introverted. Your mood and thoughts, especially the negative ones, can be shared with others. Fans and friends can help you become more humane."

Qin Jue stood up, Dr. Lu also stood up, and the two shook hands.

Dr. Lu finally said:
"You are not alone."

"Thanks."

Qin Jue smiled, turned and left.

The sun shines on her back.

(End of this chapter) Chapter 37: First V-blog Live Broadcast (Part 1) (Recommended Position Warm-up and More)

After returning to Su City, daily life continued as usual. Qin Jue listened to Dr. Lu's advice, asked Cen Yi for some experience, and posted a V blog on Sunday.

秦绝
11-10 from Android client

Good afternoon, my first Vb live broadcast will be in two hours.

She doesn't have many fans, only a few hundred in total, and most of them are fans of Cen Yi who come to visit.

Each ID card can only register up to three accounts on V-blog, and there are no so-called zombie fans. However, some people are willing to do odd jobs and earn extra money by doing things like following and liking customers' posts, or giving ratings to certain applications and works.

This kind of copy-paste and mechanical traffic-brushing behavior will affect a person's social credit and raise the threshold for them to collect and pay credit points. In the long run, it will do more harm than good, but many people still invest in this kind of industry.

A few minutes later, the number of comments on Qin Jue's Weibo post exceeded fifty. She took out her phone and replied to them one by one. She was in a good mood.

She asked Cen Yi what he usually does during live broadcasts, and Cen Yi's reply was quite Buddhist: "In fact, fans often just want to see you, or be seen by you."

Cen Yi went on to say, "For fans, they have many channels to see you, such as your works, various interviews and V-blog updates, etc., so live broadcasts don't require you to do anything too special. Just be natural and normal, read some comments and chat, or sing a song and dance, etc. Fans just want to see you in real time and see how you are doing. Don't be too reserved."

Qin Jue nodded.

She actually has no idea about her fans, or rather, she doesn't care much about "fans" themselves. She has never been a fan of a star, and even if she has a favorite singer, she just listens to his songs quietly and occasionally buys a digital album.

When Lin Xiaohan mentioned the current situation of the contemporary fan circle, Qin Jue's first reaction was a question mark, and then he couldn't help but sigh, this is a harmonious society, some people seem to have a lot of free time.

At the end of the world, their only entertainment was to listen to the little fox singing. The little fox was a blind girl with a bright and charming appearance, a "seven-point beauty" just right. The so-called seven-point beauty means that if it is a few points more, it will be generous and beautiful, making people feel ashamed and unattainable, and if it is a few points less, it will be mediocre, lost in the crowd, and unable to attract others' attention.

The little fox was just beautiful enough to make one's heart flutter at a glance, and to make one want to approach and offend. In order to protect her, Qin Jue let the little fox live and eat with him and be his close subordinate.

Outsiders did not know Qin Jue's real gender and always assumed that the little fox was her woman, which saved them a lot of trouble.

There are also singing tutorials in Sen Ran's APP. Qin Jue has good conditions and has learned to sing for a while, but he is still far behind someone as talented as Little Fox.

The little fox is blind, so her hearing is extremely sharp, and she can easily detect the subtle differences in vocalization. Her natural voice is soft and tender, and her pronunciation is sweet. In order not to attract covetousness, she usually doesn't speak easily and doesn't meet many people. Only on certain days of each month will she be "released" by Qin Jue to sing for everyone.

The little fox's voice when singing is completely different from her natural voice, it is clear and melodious, with a transparent and pure fairy air, like a siren. It only takes a thought for her to cleanse the soul or bewitch people.

Qin Jue recalled her and missed her terribly for a moment, then smiled and shook his head.

The little fox never mentioned his experience, I don't know if he forgot or didn't want to mention it. In fact, few people in the end times still remember their real names, and even fewer are willing to tell others. Even Qin Jue had to confirm with Jiang Shuming before he found out that her dog's name was Cheng Zheng.

The name sounds pretty nice.

Clearing his mind, Qin Jue tuned the guitar strings and turned on his laptop to connect to the Vb live broadcast.

The computer version of V blog comes with software that can adjust filters, beautification and the like. Qin Jue doesn't even know how to take a selfie, so he didn't adjust these things and just appeared in the camera without makeup.

The number of online viewers is quite consistent with her fan base, about two to three hundred, which to some extent proves that most of them are active fans.

【Oh, Huolanglang is live streaming!】

[The little wolf cub is finally open for business]

[Good afternoon—]

"Good afternoon everyone, I am Qin Jue."

Qin Jue smiled and said, "I thought no one would come."

[Hahahaha too honest]

[Today is Sunday and it's a holiday, so there are many people~]

"Yeah." Qin Jue nodded and chatted with them, "Because "The Cage" hasn't been released yet, so they are also surprised that I have fans now."

"I think everyone came here from Brother Cen?" She asked with a smile, and then said, "Am I suspected of riding on the popularity? It seems that this is very important in the circle."

[Yes, I am a fan of Boss Cen]

[It's okay, Lao Cen is an actor, not a celebrity, we are all very Buddhist]

[Yes, yes, don't be afraid, little wolf]

"It's not that I'm afraid." Qin Jue read out every comment, "I just feel that it would be bad if I cause trouble to Brother Cen."

It was rare for her to just chat with someone, and she had to chat for such a long time. She was inexplicably nervous out of habit.

【What happened to Langlang? 】

"Uh..." Qin Jue decided to tell the truth, "I don't have the experience of chatting with people all the time, it feels a bit strange."

[hhhh it's okay, it's like this for the first time as a streamer (dog head)]

【Just get used to it~】

"Yeah." Qin Jue nodded obediently.

The atmosphere in her live broadcast room was not very enthusiastic. In the apocalypse, dangers were everywhere and everyone was used to communicating in the simplest language. It was really difficult for Qin Jue to take the initiative to create the atmosphere.

[Hahahahahahaha, Qin Xiaolang, what's wrong with you? You suddenly became silent.]

Qin Jue raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Why are you here?"

The one who posted the barrage was Lin Xiaohan.

[Hi, I'm free. I just came out of the dance studio.] Lin Xiaohan replied in the barrage.

"Is this okay?" Qin Jue's tense mood relaxed a little, and he said with a smile, "My idol came to watch the live broadcast or something."

[Hey, is this the girl that Brother Cen mentioned? She actually came to watch the live broadcast]

[After watching the behind-the-scenes footage, I became a fan of Xiao Han. Look at me, look at me]

[Well, I am just taking advantage of my unknown status. This is what it means to do evil things because of my ignorance.] Lin Xiaohan said shockingly.

Qin Jue smiled and helplessly held his forehead: "You are still okay."

With Lin Xiaohan helping her to lead the topic, the atmosphere in the live broadcast room became much more lively.

[How come you've lost so much weight? You're almost thinner than me!] Lin Xiaohan asked.

"Because I'm preparing for the audition."

Qin Jue said casually, "The image should be as consistent as possible."

She had a good relationship with Lin Xiaohan. She rolled up her sweatshirt sleeves and shook them in front of the camera: "Look, the muscles are gone."

[Hey! Can I watch this without paying? #funny]

[Hey, come on, are you going to conform to the mainstream aesthetics too? You even said before that my ideas were problematic! ] Lin Xiaohan shouted in the barrage.

She was talking about the behind-the-scenes footage of the two of them filming "The Cage". The conversation in the video was as follows:

Lin Xiaohan: "Hey, look at me, have I lost weight? It's good to lose weight for acting, and it will make you look better on camera."

Qin Jue: "You are too thin. This is not good."

Lin Xiaohan: "Whether it's good or not is another matter. I will look twice as fat when I'm on camera. And some people still say I'm fat."

Qin Jue: "Do they have convex lenses in their eyes?"

Lin Xiaohan laughed like a goose.

This video went viral in a small circle for a while, and was joked as "the correct way for a straight guy to make girls happy." Many passerby girls also said that Qin Jue's way of telling off girls was really cool and they loved it.

Qin Jue laughed when she mentioned this, put down his hand and explained: "No. I have no interest in being pale, young and thin. It's just that the character is like this. Without spoiling anything, I have pale skin and a thin body."

[But you're not very white now] Lin Xiaohan's words are heartbreaking.

"Yes." Qin Jue glanced at his arms with his sleeves rolled up, "So I don't plan to go out before the audition."

She took a sip of the brewed green tea. "Sunscreen is so troublesome. As for ultraviolet rays, if you don't go out, you can reduce them by 100%."

Chapter 38 First V-blog Live Broadcast (Part 2) (Recommended Position Preheating and Extra Update)

[Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha]

[Xiaolang is actually a otaku, I am dying of laughter]

[To avoid being exposed to the sun, it is okay to simply not give the sun a chance to expose yourself]

[Why do I think it makes so much sense. . . ]

Lin Xiaohan typed a string of [goose, goose, goose, goose], and then said [You are too much of a homebody, you order takeout for all three meals? ]

"No, I've been dieting for a long time." Qin Jue looked like an old cadre holding the thermos cup, "One meal of vegetable salad a day, I learned it from you."

[Oh my god, one meal a day is still salad]

[What kind of torture is this]

[Langlang, be nicer to yourself]

[? ? ? Wait, your weight loss effect is too good! ] Lin Xiaohan's barrage was caught in the middle.

[Pure passerby, which unknown star is playing misery to gain fans? ]

"Because I sleep less than you." Qin Jue said honestly, "Otherwise, it's hard to lose muscle."

She read several comments and replied one by one, "It's okay, I know my limits and won't hurt myself. Yes, I'm an unknown star. But I'm not playing misery, and there are no fans who can gain fans."

[Little Wolf, don't pay attention to strange people]

[Touch Little Wolf, don't pay attention to him]

[Curious about what audition, why do you have to prepare so hard]

"It's okay, I just answer questions when someone asks." Qin Jue continued to read the comments, "What audition? Well, keep it secret."

[Movie or TV series]

[Is it a fight scene? It doesn't sound like it]

"Movie." Qin Jue said, "Fighting scenes... there are, but they shouldn't be very handsome."

[Not very handsome, so were you beaten?] Lin Xiaohan gloated.

"Fighting is about both you and me going back and forth." Qin Jue answered honestly, "There will be both hitting and being hit."

[Wow, is he the male protagonist?]

"I can't say." Qin Jue raised his eyes and laughed, "Little mirror? Aren't you studying?"

[Just finished a set of test questions, come to take a breath] Xu Jingyi replied in the barrage.

The two of them often chat in the comments of Qin Jue's V blog.

[Hahahaha, I saw green tea] Xu Jingyi said again.

"Well, it tastes good." Qin Jue raised the thermos cup and shook it in front of the camera, laughing, "I also recommended it to Brother Cen."

[What what! What green tea! ]

[Eh hey hey Boss Cen?]

[Ah, I seem to have some impression]

[Boss Cen had an interview with this thermos cup next to him, right? 】

[It turned out to be Xiaolang's]

Speaking of Cen Yi, the fans of Cen Yi who were watching quietly in the live broadcast room all started to comment.

"Ah, yes." Qin Jue thought about it, "It should be... in October. The weather got cooler, and the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the studio was very large. Brother Cen went out for an interview and I handed it to him."

[Wow, please give me the same one! ]

[Xiaolang is so warm and cute]

"The same one. This, I'm not sure." Qin Jue smiled, "This was given by Xiaojingzi classmate. It should be from my own family, right? Am I right?"

[Yeah, yes~] Xu Jingyi answered.

[Hey - can Xiaolang's company accept gifts? I want to send one too! ]

[Which company is Xiaolang? 】

"No company." Qin Jue replied, "Now it's mainly me and my life assistant. Well, there are no special plans in the near future, I just want to prepare for the audition."

[Ah, you will have very few resources without a company]

[Yes, yes, it's better to sign a contract, although the current entertainment companies are quite pitfalls...]

"It doesn't matter." Qin Jue said with a smile, "I may set up a personal studio later, and I don't have much work, so I can still handle it."

[No, Langlang, it's a matter of connections and resources]

[It's not easy for you to get a role without a company]

[Yes, it's hard to guarantee the quality]

The only dozen active fans persuaded her, and Qin Jue was speechless.

"It really doesn't matter, at least it's not a problem to consider now." She said seriously, "Thank you for your concern and advice, but I am definitely more clear about my own situation. I am confident, so don't worry too much about me, okay?"

[By the way, why did you suddenly think of V blog live broadcast? 】Lin Xiaohan suddenly asked.

Knowing that she was deliberately changing the subject, Qin Jue finished reading the barrage, smiled, and said while tidying up the desktop: "Didn't I see a psychologist yesterday. The doctor said that it's better not to be too withdrawn and to communicate with more people."

[Hey, what's wrong with Langlang, are you okay?]

[Woo ah pat on the head]

[Psychological problems? Depression? ]

The barrage was indeed diverted.

[Is that so, that's right, so you don't have to be lifeless and lifeless every day] Lin Xiaohan teased.

"Thank you for your concern." Qin Jue read the barrage first, "Well... it's not depression, it's more like, bipolar disorder? But the problem is not big, and it's not serious enough to require medication."

"Lifeless is okay, classmate Xiaolin." Qin Jue raised his eyebrows, "I'm old enough to be your grandfather, and you still want me to be energetic, it's too embarrassing for the old man."

[? ? ? 】Lin Xiaohan was persecuted, [You are only one year older than me! ]

Qin Jue laughed: "You should know your experience and mental age."

[Good fellow Qin Xiaolang, you are such a person! I will find you for a real-life PK when the crew has a team building! ] Lin Xiaohan sent three angry expressions.

Qin Jue smiled and said: "Although my muscles have gone down, you don't look like you can beat me."

[Hey, you are so annoying! ! Ask Brother Qi to beat you! ]

Lin Xiaohan and her were fighting back and forth in the barrage, and Qin Jue was happy to lean back, and the restraint at the beginning of the live broadcast was much less.

"Speaking of which, have you practiced the score?"

When he saw that the time was almost up, Qin Jue picked up the guitar next to him, held it in his arms, and asked casually.

[What is this music sheet?]

[I've learned it, don't worry, you xe #$32]

[Ah! You told me to go back and practice dancing! Goodbye!]

Lin Xiaohan left a string of comments and left the live broadcast room.

"Bye-bye-" Qin Jue waved and connected the data cable to the guitar, "Oh, this music sheet is a song I prepared. Director Jiang said that the crew will have a team building in a few days, and asked us to prepare some programs."

[Ah! Xiaolang is very good at writing songs! I'm still listening to that Times Square video collection]

[What, am I 2G again? ? ? What collection?]

[The one in front, point the way to E station ev number xxxxxxx, it's super nice! 】

"No, no." Qin Jue explained, "The song is not my original work."

She repeated the story of meeting a songwriter on the Internet, "I just rearranged the song and will perform it with Xiao Han later."

[Oh oh]

[It's great that it's okay! ]

[Those big guys are so strong, really. I'm still looping several songs now]

[Xiaolang, you're holding the guitar, are you going to sing! Ahhhhh]

[Wow, the team building is a new song? Will it be live? Will there be a video? 】

"Well, I'm going to sing for everyone. Wu Ang, the makeup artist of the crew, said before that the sound quality of some videos on the Internet is not very good. I plan to sing those songs for everyone." Qin Jue answered honestly, "The new songs performed during the team building, live broadcast... I don't know, there should be videos, it depends on Director Jiang's arrangement."

"Sorry to bother you all for a moment."

She took off the headset, replaced it with the set of radio equipment that Flandy gave her, set up the mobile microphone stand, installed the cover of the anti-spray microphone, and connected it to the computer.

"Hello? How's the sound quality? Can you hear it?" She leaned close to the microphone.

[Hiss...]

[Fuck, the sound just now was so close and sexy]

[Oh my ears]

[Oh my god, I blushed]

"Um, civilized live broadcast room, don't say dirty words, thank you." Qin Jue said.

[Hahahaha OK]

[Help! The atmosphere was very quiet just now, but as soon as he opened his mouth, the atmosphere suddenly changed to the news broadcast]

"Sorry." Qin Jue couldn't help but smile. Seeing some new viewers coming into the live broadcast room, he said, "Hello friends who just clicked in, I'm Qin Jue."

"Let me explain first. The following songs were sung by me when I was practicing singing in the square. Because I was abroad at the time, they are all English songs. Also, I'm not the original creator. The original information has been typed on the public screen.

"Well, let's start. The first song is "I'm yours"..."

ps. Actually, A Jue has already transcribed many scores, and only five are listed here. Chapter 39: Literally, the boss teaches you how to be a man

When Qin Jue was practicing singing in Times Square, she did not choose only songs from the parallel world. The Blue Star where she was also had many classic songs, all of which she transcribed and adapted into guitar versions. There were thirty or forty songs in total, which was enough for a concert.

Music is a magical thing. Even those who don't understand music can sometimes hum a tune. Someone once said that melody is the most genuine happiness in life, and Qin Jue deeply agrees with that.

After all, it was her most proud skill besides fighting. After she picked up the guitar and started singing, she relaxed visibly. The barrage of comments sometimes exploded due to the songs, but most of the time it was relatively quiet. Qin Jue didn't need to pay attention to the comments. She gradually sang with ecstasy, closing her eyes and singing one song after another, as if she had clicked on a playlist and looped. She sang for more than an hour before stopping.

She held the guitar upright in her arms, snuggled in the computer chair, let out a sigh of relief, tilted her head and rubbed it against the neck of the guitar, savoring the moment for a long time before opening her eyes.

When she opened her eyes, her expression was dull for a moment.

"…cough."

Qin Jue sat up awkwardly and put his guitar away, "Uh, sorry, I forgot I was live streaming."

Video calls in the apocalypse are two-way, and it is rare for one person to talk unilaterally. She doesn't look at the comments, and doesn't even feel like there's anyone watching her on the other side, so she gradually lets herself go.

The barrage of comments exploded, and all he could see was hahahaha. Qin Jue rubbed his face hard with both hands, and his ears felt burning.

She is over fifty years old, doesn't she have any dignity to save?

"Ahem!" Qin Jue cleared his throat forcefully, staring at the camera seriously. After holding his breath for a long time, his momentum suddenly weakened, and he covered his face and said, "Sorry..."

Although she only has a few fans, she still feels as if she has brought shame upon herself in front of the entire nation.

This scary online world.

[Hahahahahaha rub the little wolf, so cute]

[I am so cute wwww]

[Don't worry, you look so handsome when you sing with your eyes closed! ]

"Stop talking, stop talking." Qin Jue waved his hand weakly.

It's so shameful. She can't bear this.

The comments on the barrage laughed even more wildly.

[Hug our cute little wolf hahahahaha]

[Although you look cute when you are self-absorbed, you look really handsome when you ]

"Oh my god."

Qin Jue stroked his hair, which had grown quite a bit, and said helplessly, "Stop it, stop it quickly, don't comfort me anymore."

[Think too much, we are not comforting you, we are persecuting you (dog head)]

After Qin Jue finished reading this comment, he rolled his eyes at the camera.

"Then you are really giving me face." She laughed.

[Hahahahahahahaha I laughed so hard that I fainted]

[Who are you being sarcastic about here? Hahahahaha, so cute]

[awsl wants to bully him even more]

[Pay attention to facial expression management, big brother #beating-the-table-laughing]

"Expression management? There is no management." Qin Jue took a sip of the cold green tea and rolled his eyes again, "I'm not acting now. I can use my face however I want. What's your business?"

【Hahahahahahahaha】

[He is anxious, he is anxious, he is anxious, he is anxious]

Qin Jue paused for a while and felt that he was being childish and couldn't help laughing.

"What a mess." She laughed and complained quietly, fanning her face which was still hot. "Well, anyway, thank you all for listening to me sing for so long. It's hard work."

[You are so good—]

[Not hard, not hard, it sounds great! 】

[It sounds really good, I've become a fan]

"Thank you, thank you. Thank you so much." Qin Jue was still smiling, his beautiful phoenix eyes curved into an arc. Although there was still some residual shame and amusement, his mood was very bright.

"Hey, why are there so many people suddenly?" The comments were dense, and she glanced at the number of online viewers, which had broken four digits and was approaching two thousand.

【Thanks to [Yuelang Qiufeng] for feeding [rocket]! The popularity of the anchor has increased again! 】

【Thanks to [Yuelang Qiufeng] for feeding [Skyscraper]! The popularity of the anchor has increased again! 】

【Thanks to [Yuelang Qiufeng] for feeding [Yacht]! The popularity of the anchor has increased again! 】

Suddenly, a conspicuous special effect exploded in the live broadcast room, and various Q-version animated pictures filled the video, which made Qin Jue stunned.

"etc."

As soon as she opened her mouth, the act of giving gifts seemed to remind other people in the live broadcast room. All of a sudden, all kinds of gifts flew around, special effects surged up, and Qin Jue's face could not be seen clearly.

"No need to give gifts, thank you. Don't waste money." She frowned and moved the mouse, "Where can I turn off the gift-giving function?"

[It's okay, Langlang gave you a gift because he likes you]

[Pfft, Xiaolang is so straightforward]

[It doesn't matter, you still need to eat, everyone supports you voluntarily]

"Stop it."

Qin Jue frowned even deeper and spoke in a serious tone. She searched for half a minute and found that the gift-giving function could not be turned off on Weibo. She smacked her lips and closed the live broadcast room directly.

The barrage and gift lists came to an abrupt end.

Qin Jue opened the V blog server and made a phone call.

The reply was that the income from the live broadcast gifts would be deposited into the user's bound payment account in proportion.

Qin Jue asked again: "What if there is no payment account bound?"

Customer Service: "The money will be kept on our platform for three days. If you have not linked your account within three days, it will be returned to the payment account. However, the handling fee of our platform will be deducted accordingly, and there is no way to return it."

Qin Jue: "Then is there any way to stop gift giving?"

The customer service choked for a moment, as if he hadn't expected her question to be so strange: "Please wait a moment, I'll ask for you, please don't hang up the phone."

Qin Jue: "Okay, thank you for your help."

After a while, the customer service replied: "Hello, it is like this. Vblog has a blacklist function. Users who are blacklisted cannot enter your live broadcast room, and they cannot send gifts."

Qin Jue sighed: "Okay, thank you."

She hung up the phone, gave the customer service a five-star rating, and waited a while before reopening the live broadcast room.

This time, the middle of the screen was filled with several conspicuous uppercase and bold Song font characters: Anyone sending gifts in the live broadcast room will be blocked.

Qin Jue reappeared in the video, with no attempt to hide his emotions, and his face was full of displeasure.

Vb Live has a real-time popularity ranking list. Many passers-by clicked in from this list. Some of them didn't have time to click to follow. Qin Jue suddenly closed the live broadcast room, and opened it again after more than ten minutes. The number of people online successfully dropped to four or five hundred.

"Let me make it clear first, I don't need any gifts, and I haven't linked any accounts to receive payments. The money you transfer will not reach me, and will only be charged as a handling fee by Vblog."

Qin Jue had a cold face and spoke with a heavy tone, "Thank you for your kindness, but I really don't need it."

[Uh, Xiaolang is really angry]

[Emm, don't take it so seriously]

[? ? The anchor is quite noble, so do you want love?]

[Wow, which obscure star is trying to create a character?]

Qin Jue ignored him and said seriously: "I am an actor. I earn money for the film, that's all. The relationship between me and my fans is just that of liking and being liked. I don't need to earn your money, and you don't have to spend money on me."

She emphasized each sentence clearly and sounded very serious. "I am only speaking for my personal situation. I have no right to interfere with you spending money to give gifts to other stars or actors, but you don't have to bring other people's live broadcast room practices to me. Don't blame me for speaking directly. I earn much more than most of you, and the same goes for you. No matter whether your money comes easily or with difficulty, whether it is earned by yourself or given by your parents, you don't have to spend it on me."

As Qin Jue spoke, he blocked two fans who were still sending gifts during the live broadcast, including Yuelang Qiufeng who started sending gifts first.

"I'll block you for three days, and I'll remove the ban after I return the money to you." She took a sip of tea sullenly, still feeling irritated.

"Whether I'm replying to comments or chatting with you on a live broadcast, it's all because I want to interact with you." After a pause, Qin Jue continued, "Fans are my friends, okay? If you come to visit me and bring me a bag of fruit, I don't mind. I will even cut a fruit platter for you to eat together. But I'm on an online platform now. The platform is just a medium for me to chat and meet with you. I hope you don't suddenly start sending me money just because of the functions that come with this platform."

She said so many words in a row and blocked a few people, and finally no one sent gifts anymore.

During this period, many people were sarcastic in the comments, and some half-passers-by and half-fans felt that it was unnecessary for her to be so serious. They were a little speechless and left the live broadcast room silently.

[Xiao Huxing is quite good at fixing powder, haha]

"Thank you. You can discuss the conspiracy theory yourself." Qin Jue curled the corners of his mouth without a smile.

"I don't like to talk nonsense without focusing on the point. I just talk about the point. I don't know how to be tactful and don't want to be tactful." She still looked directly at the camera and said, "If there are friends or viewers who think that you don't get along with me, I suggest you don't make yourself unhappy. You can leave the live broadcast room now, unfollow me, or block me. It doesn't matter what. We can just part ways in peace."

[Pat Teacher Qin, I also think it would be better if everyone stopped giving gifts. Teacher Qin just wants to have a good chat with everyone.]

[There are so many special effects for giving gifts, I couldn't even see his face clearly just now, which is not good]

Xu Jingyi posted two messages in a row. She and Qin Jue had replied to each other many times in the comments. She had a sign of "die-hard fan", and the barrage in the live broadcast room was more conspicuous.

[That's right, Boss Cen also often reminds us to be careful about our consumption.] The moon is on the willow branches - Liu Xinyue immediately agreed with her roommate.

[That's right, Xiaolang said so.]

[If you don't want to send it, then don't send it. It's not a big deal.]

[Yeah, what were those yin and yang guys trying to do? I think it's good that Xiaolang considers everyone's spending.]

[That's right. I admit that I am poor. Seeing rows of people giving gifts also makes me feel pressured. I feel as if I have to spend some money too.]

"Yes. That's it." Qin Jue finished reading the comments and said, "First, people who send large gifts will put pressure on other friends who watch the live broadcast carefully. It seems that if everyone else is giving gifts and you don't, it will seem strange. This is the social environment pressure formed by potential rules. It's just a small live broadcast, it's not necessary at all. Second, to put it bluntly, I'm just an actor and I just want to act well. I don't have any personality, and I don't rely on image packaging to attract fans. I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with establishing a personality and packaging, it's just that I'm not like that."

"I understand and appreciate that people express their affirmation, love and recognition of me by sending me gifts. However, once money is involved, some people may not have any other intentions when sending gifts, but for me, if I receive the money, I will inexplicably have some responsibility to do something to repay this income. So what's the point? Huh?

"I'm not a so-called boyfriend, and I already have a partner. I won't become the kind of star you have in mind. In other words, even if you spend money, I won't follow your wishes and become or maintain the appearance you want. Then isn't it a waste of your money? Right?"

Qin Jue held the herbal tea in his hand and sighed slightly tiredly.

She really thinks it is unnecessary for fans to spend this money. Isn't the basic income of an actor the film pay? At most, they can shoot a magazine, take an endorsement, sign a contract and do the work, and then they can get the signing fee and share. For live broadcasts like this, receiving gifts is purely redundant income and is unnecessary.

"Okay, let me say something at the end." Qin Jue rubbed his temples. He was in a good mood just now, but it started high and ended low. He was very helpless. "I said before that I haven't signed a contract with any company. Besides myself, I only have a life assistant. If I were in an entertainment company, I might need to make money for the company through various channels to repay the company for the various resources it has invested in me. But I am alone now. I don't have such a big financial burden, and I can support myself. You really don't have to worry about me."

"First of all, take care of your own life. If you are a student, study hard. If you are tired and feel that chatting with me can relax you, just come over. I will read every comment. The same goes for working people. Everyone has their own life, and taking care of yourself is the top priority. I am just a friend who will always be here and I can't run away. What are you worried about?"

She made fun of herself.

"Really? Can you take care of yourself? I'm an adult now, can I still starve myself to death?"

"Oh yeah, there were quite a few minors there just now, right?" Qin Jue had sharp eyes, and she remembered all the comments from those names on the gift list. "You're a minor and you're spending money to give me gifts. What a jerk. If your parents ask about it, they'll say that your grades are dropping, you're addicted to anchors, and you're wasting money. I can't take responsibility for that, and I don't want to be blamed for it, okay?"

"Having said so much, in short, I am just like this. I have a normal temper and will not put myself in a difficult position to say nice things. If someone should be criticized, I will definitely criticize them directly. I hope you will not give me the opportunity to educate you during the live broadcast."

Qin Jue finished speaking and said, "Okay, now if you have any questions, anything you want to say, anything you want to curse, come on, just post a comment. I have been cursing unilaterally for so long, you also have the right to curse back, we are all equal. Come on."

For a moment, the barrage pool in the live broadcast room was silent, and there was no movement for two or three minutes.

Until a barrage suddenly appeared.

[Fuck! ! I have completely become a fan. Who is this actor? He has such positive values! ]

Qin Jue was stunned for a moment, then laughed after reading the comment: "Oh, you are a wise man. Let me introduce myself briefly. My name is Qin Jue. I have just become an actor for a short time. I have a small role in the movie "The Cage" directed by Jiang Shuming."

She smiled and said, "If you still want to spend money, please bring your relatives and friends to watch "The Cage". Thank you."

The barrage seemed to come back to its senses at this moment, and suddenly became lively, with a large number of comments popping up at once, and two-thirds of them were expressing their love for her.

[Teacher Qin! I like you so much! Ahhhh I really didn't follow the wrong person] This address is obviously Xu Jingyi.

[It's really too good, I'm completely hooked]

[The little werewolf is very good! I swear on my credit report!] This is Liu Xinyue.

[Did you know that this live broadcast room was on the list again because the anchor used the public screen to educate fans?]

[I'm just a passerby, I just came in not long ago, this guy said it very well]

[Just because of your attitude, I want to watch "The Cage" as well]

[Yes, I am really a sober person. I didn't expect that he is from the entertainment industry. It feels quite rare]

[I am also a passerby, I think there is nothing wrong with what the anchor said, it is obviously very sincere and heartfelt]

[Yes, before, there were minors who gave thousands of dollars in tips to anchors, and it was all in the news]

[It does require some correct guidance]

【I've become a fan, I've become a fan】

[The previous group of people spoke too long, so I won't read it. I'm not well-educated, so I just want to say that the brothers scolded well! It's really refreshing to listen to! ]

[Hahahahahahahaha I feel great too, Xiaolang, scold me again]

Qin Jue laughed and waved his hands: "Slow down your comments, I don't have time to read."

She couldn't help but complain: "Why is this V-blog live broadcast so inhumane?"

[Pfft, Langlang, you are complaining about others in their territory]

[That's too arrogant, hahahahahaha]

"No, since it is open to the public, it is only natural to accept criticism and suggestions." Qin Jue was a little amused. "After talking so much, I have finished my tea. Wait a minute, I will go make some tea."

After saying that, he stood up and walked away with the thermos cup.

[Hahahahahahahaha, I laughed to death. The host abandoned the audience to make tea during the live broadcast]

【Qin Xiaolang is so interesting】

[It's just a mudslide hhhhh]

[Hiss, hiss, while the little wolf is not looking I must say, his waistline was so tight when he stood up just now (covering his face)]

[Ahhh, wait for me, sister in front, I want to say it too! ! And your legs are so long! ]

[Yes, yes, yes, the legs are long, thin and straight, my god, they are so beautiful]

【The pervert is actually me! 】

[Hahahahahahahahaha, you guys are afraid of being scolded, so you can only take advantage of Lang Lang's absence to lust after his body (dog head)]

【Take down the surveillance camera quickly! ! 】

[It's you who's spying on my life! ]

[I have been holding back on saying this for a long time. Lang Lang looks so cool when he curses.]

[Wow, so handsome, so fierce but so handsome]

[Men are most charming when they are serious, hehe]

[Why do you all think he's handsome? Am I the only one who thinks he looks like my dad?]

[Haha ...

[Really, really, especially for old fathers, I subconsciously tremble when I look at my phone]

Qin Jue came back with the thermos cup and sat down. He glanced at the comments and saw the expressions on the screen: subway, old man, cell
"What are you talking about..."

Her disdain was mixed with a hint of confusion, and her confusion was mixed with a hint of disbelief, with a pie-shaped statistical graph printed on her face.

[Hahahahahaha bro, please be nicer to your face]

[Emojis appeared hhhh]

Qin Jue read two sentences and couldn't read any more. He vividly showed one word to the camera: Huh.

"I'm old, I don't know what kind of waves you young people are surfing."

She shook her head tiredly, picked up the guitar, and suddenly remembered something. She moved her shoulders, leaned forward, and quickly tapped the keyboard.

[My god, your hand speed is much faster than mine]

[Hey, what are you doing? ]

"Write a small program." Qin Jue was multitasking, and could still catch a glimpse of the comments from the corner of his eye. "Just block the person who sent you a gift, so I won't be able to take care of you later."

【？ ？ ？ ？ 】

[Strange skills added! ]

【woc Aren't you an actor?】

[No...a handsome guy who doesn't want to be a programmer is not a good actor? ]

Since the function to be implemented was very simple, Qin Jue completed the mini program in a short time. He simulated and tested it twice and found no bugs.

She nodded with satisfaction, started the mini program, reconnected the pickup of the acoustic guitar, pinched a chord with her left hand, plucked the strings with her right hand, and produced a series of pleasant and silky guitar sounds.

"Okay, I hope you don't take the unpleasantness just now to heart. Of course, don't take it all to heart.

"I will sing for another hour before going offline. If any friends want the audio of the song, I will upload a live version of today after it ends."

As he spoke, Qin Jue moved closer to the microphone, and a soft and gentle bass sounded.

What she didn't know was that because of that straightforward and merciless "education" just now, she became popular again.

Thanks to [Qi Xiangyun] for the recommendation vote x3 (bow

Thanks to [Wu Shi] for the recommendation vote x4 (bow

Thank you both for your continuous recommendation votes, it is my honor XD
ps. This chapter is very enjoyable to write, 5600+, I will not split the chapter Chapter 40: Team Building of the "Cage" Crew (Seeking Recommendation Vote)

This V blog live broadcast lasted two and a half hours, including the short interval in the middle. The atmosphere was pretty good at the end. Qin Jue waved towards the camera and ended the live broadcast.

The cell phone next to him vibrated twice. It was a message from Mori Ran.

[Dad's good boy Ranran]: Ugh, I'm late!
[Dad's good boy Ranran]: Hug Dad—

Qin Jue was home alone, so he clicked on the voice call, tilted his head, put the phone on his shoulder and walked towards the kitchen.

"Is he done with his work?" she asked.

"Not yet! But you can breathe a sigh of relief now~" Mori Ran's baby voice came from the receiver, "I will pay more attention to Daddy in the future! It won't be as chaotic as today!"

Qin Jue knew what she was referring to, and said with a smile: "If we suddenly couldn't send gifts at that time, people would probably think it was a bug of V blog, and it wouldn't be good to cause trouble to the customer service."

"Well, alright." Mori Ran said, "Then Dad, go get busy. I'll upload the audio of the song!"

"Okay - I'll leave it to A-ran."

Qin Jue took out the ingredients from the small refrigerator and made a cut with the kitchen knife in his hand.

"Yeah!"

Vblog live broadcast comes with its own video, which will be uploaded to the Vblog platform within a few hours after the live broadcast ends. Moriran only needs to make an edit.

The two chatted for a while, and Sen Ran hung up the phone reluctantly. Qin Jue quickly finished his dinner, lay back on the steel bed, and entered the film and television space.

…

On November 13th, Qin Jue woke up from the restraints, opened the buckle with some difficulty, and got out of bed to wash.

It was just past noon. She was in a very good state last night and had stayed in the film and television space for a long time. The backlash after leaving it was more serious, and she didn't fall asleep until three or four in the morning.

She took a quick shower and changed her clothes, and then Zhang Ming knocked on the door.

"Have you eaten yet?"

Qin Jue let him into the house and took the lunch from him.

"I've eaten, don't worry, Brother Qin."

Qin Jue was sitting in the small kitchen drinking soy milk while Zhang Ming took a broom and dustpan to clean the study and living room, acting like a personal assistant.

"Is your last job over?"

Qin Jue swallowed the food in his mouth before asking.

"Uh." Zhang Ming scratched the back of his head.

"Go ahead. What happened?"

"Nothing. After working as a laborer for a few days, I was transferred to be a temporary assistant to an actor." Zhang Ming was a little annoyed. "The teacher didn't like people like me, so he fired me."

"Someone like you?"

Qin Jue glanced at him and said, "Why, do you think you are capable of doing things?"

"Oh, it is."

Zhang Ming was just feeling a little aggrieved at first, but when Qin Jue asked him about it and there were no outsiders around, he couldn't help himself.

"Brother Qin, you don't know. That guy is really petty. I wanted to give bottles of water to other staff members in his name, thinking that I could leave a good reputation. But he thought I was trying to get close to others by using his assistant status. He thought I was a traitor and fired me."

"Too much caution."

Qin Jue said noncommittally, "But I can understand that. In the entertainment industry, people are on guard against others everywhere, fearing that they will be stepped on to get promoted one day. Haha, it's the same in other circles."

Why did everyone not want to save people in the end times? It was simply because they were worried about the farmer and the snake.

"Oh, I know, I'm just a little hypocritical." Zhang Ming finished cleaning and felt a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry, Brother Qin, for making you listen to me talk about these things."

"Just treat it as gossip." Qin Jue smiled, "Which actor? Tell me so I can avoid it."

She learned the term "lightning avoidance" from her fans.

"Jingxing River."

"Oh... I haven't heard of it." Qin Jue didn't care. She just asked casually, "Have you brought your things?"

"Yeah, I went to the station yesterday. The gifts for Director Jiang and Brother Qi are all in the temporary storage cabinet at the station. The cabinet is owned by Qin Yi Logistics. I chose the one with the best airtightness."

"Okay, that's perfect." Qin Jue collected the food waste, washed his hands and walked to the study, "Remember to report it on the APP."

"Yeah, this one can't be wrong!"

Zhang Ming also has an application produced by Sen Ran on his mobile phone, which records every salary and official expenses clearly.

Jiang Shuming's place was in Hangzhou, which was also within a high-speed train ride from Suzhou. Qin Jue carried his guitar and accessories, and Zhang Ming carried two large bags of gifts and condolences, and the two headed straight for the high-speed rail station.

When they came out of Hangzhou East Station, they saw Jiang Shuming's male assistant. Qi Qingyuan also came by high-speed rail, and his arrival time was not much different from theirs. He was also sitting in the nanny car at this time. Zhang Ming was pleasantly surprised and pulled him to chat.

Before the child started chatting, he glanced at Qin Jue, and she slapped him on the head with a chestnut in a funny way.

"Do I look like someone who would mind that?" she laughed.

Zhang Ming touched his forehead and chuckled.

Qi Qingyuan smiled and patted Zhang Ming's shoulder. He had little influence in the company and it was not convenient for him to bring Zhang Ming with him. Now he felt it was good to see him following Qin Jue.

The group took a car to their destination, which was the famous Louwailou in Hangzhou, where one could directly see the West Lake from the window.

Jiang Shuming booked the third floor in advance, cleared the area and waited for the main creative staff to arrive.

When Qin Jue arrived, Zhao Shujing and Xu Qiushi were there. After waiting for another half an hour, Cen Yi, Lin Xiaohan and the main staff of the crew also came over one after another. Wu Ang was also there, and he winked at Qin Jue just like he did at the dinner long ago.

Qin Jue laughed.

"Hey, where is Xia Yuting?" Lin Xiaohan asked.

"I have been notified and cannot come." Wu Ang was well-informed about this and gave her a look that required understanding.

Qin Jue and Lin Xiaohan understood that the announcement was true, and they also really disliked the "Cage" crew for being too obscure and didn't want to participate.

Jiang Shuming didn't care. Anyway, the young Ji Sheng, played by Xia Yuting, had even fewer scenes than Qin Jue. He appeared as a special guest to show his face, and the crew also took advantage of his traffic. It was an exchange of interests, and neither side owed anyone anything. There was nothing to say.

"Come on, eat!"

Jiang Shuming greeted everyone.

The meal was harmonious and pleasant. Apart from the necessary toasting session, there was no messy drinking contest or urging others to drink. After Qin Jue gave everyone a pocky, no one even lit a cigarette. Zhao Shujing, who would get a migraine when she smelled cigarettes, smiled with her lips pursed and her eyebrows curved, which was very touching.

After eating and drinking, Jiang Shuming said that the rough cut of the film had been completed and the first draft of the editing had been sent for first review. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be released around the New Year.

"New Year's film?" Cen Yi was a little surprised. "So big?"

"You're going to be the best actor, and you're still so insolent?"

Anyone who can sit here at this time is considered one of our own, Jiang Shuming said jokingly with a smile.

"It's an unconventional move." Xu Qiushi is a veteran actor who knows many intricacies of acting and couldn't help but sigh.

Although Qin Jue didn't understand this, just think about a crime thriller suddenly appearing among a bunch of family-friendly movies. If nothing else, it would at least be enough to attract attention.

She immediately recalled the relevant information she had looked up before. After the filming of a movie is completed, the first thing to do is a rough cut, followed by a fine cut and the final version. After the final version is edited, post-production begins, adding dubbing, special effects and subtitles.

According to the new policy more than ten years ago, the rough cut version can be sent to the National Film Administration for the first round of review, and after the final version is sent for the second round of technical review (technical examination). After the review, the screening master disc is produced, and at the same time, an application is made to the theaters and a release date is set.

The producer of the movie "The Cage" was Jiang Shuming himself, so the step of sending the film to the producer for inspection was saved. In addition, Jiang Shuming asked the editor to work simultaneously when filming started, so the efficiency was indeed very high. Not to mention that the movie itself is a modern urban theme, and it is almost all real-life shooting with original sound recording, which also saved a lot of post-production time. It is not surprising that it could catch up with the Lunar New Year holiday.

Compared with the parallel world of Earth, the development of the cultural industry on Blue Planet is more efficient and freer. While attaching great importance to cultural property rights and copyrights, the review speed of film and television works is also very fast. Generally, the first review takes half a month and the second review takes one month. For the purpose of encouragement, it is stipulated that every new movie will be 100% available in theaters on the day of its release. In other words, no matter how bad the movie is, there will be at least one show in every theater on the first day of its release.

In recent years, several low-budget films have made a comeback in this way.

"How do you all feel? Tell us."

Qin Jue was distracted and when he came back to his senses, the topic at the dinner table had changed.

"Let the leading actor come first." Xu Qiushi laughed and teased Cen Yi.

"Hey, hey." Cen Yizhi waved his hands, and with a smile he pondered for a while, then sighed, "To be honest, I'm quite lucky. I've reached my current position in the past few years, and my family is happy. I feel that there is nothing to fight for, and I just need to maintain the status quo."

"But for the money for milk powder," Cen Yi said with a smile, "Anyway, for various reasons, I decided to give it a try with Brother Jiang. Really, you don't know until you try. Acting skills will really go backwards if you don't practice them for a day. I naively thought I could maintain the status quo, but it's not the case."

"I can honestly say that I really put in 120 percent of my effort in the filming of The Cage."

Cen Yi's eyes were slightly red, and he was deeply touched: "Although I did come here with ambition, but the moment I finished filming, I felt that it was completed and it was more than enough. I hope everyone can get a satisfactory result."

He put his hands together and bowed, and everyone applauded.

"By the way, we have to thank our Qin Xiaolang as well." Cen Yi suddenly cue Qin Jue and said with a smile to Lin Xiaohan and the others, "You didn't see his previous scene? His eyes and aura were really amazing. It immediately made me find the fear that had lingered in Ji Sheng for many years, and my state of mind improved immediately."

"Wow, really?" Lin Xiaohan's eyes lit up. "Then I'll pay close attention to it when it's released!"

"Really. It's really excellent." Jiang Shuming and the assistant director both nodded. "That's right, come on, Xiaolang, give your speech."

Qin Jue was stunned, smiled, and imitated Cen Yi to stand up. After thinking for a while, he said:

"I had a small role, so there's really not much to say. I must thank Director Jiang and Brother Cen. Thank you both for letting me achieve my goal of acting well. I don't know if this can be called a dream, but for me who had suffered a misfortune and was confused about life at that time, your words really had a profound impact on me."

She laughed and said, "I went back to the crew to work as a laborer the day after the filming was completed. This experience is unique to me."

Jiang Shuming and Cen Yi both laughed.

"The Cage is a very good crew." Qin Jue continued, "The actors are all studying their acting skills. Director Jiang and the two executive directors are serious and responsible when they talk about the play, and they teach almost every detail. In addition, the martial arts directors, lighting, photography, etc., the entire crew, the entire team is integrated, and this atmosphere is particularly touching. It is my honor to be in such a crew for my first filming."

She spoke sincerely, and the main creative staff all smiled.

"Okay, leave it to our Brother Wolf next." Qin Jue's expression changed and he smiled at Qi Qingyuan.

Qi Qingyuan has been in the entertainment industry for several years, but he still doesn't like to talk much. Jiang Shuming knows his temper, so he waved his hand and told him not to stand up and just say whatever he wants.

"What I want to say is thank you." Qi Qingyuan was silent for a while, and said sincerely, "Thank you Director Jiang for your appreciation, thank you Brother Cen for your guidance, and thank you to everyone who has contributed."

He held it in for a while before saying, "Actually, my dream of entering the industry was to appear in a movie. I didn't expect it to come true so soon."

Everyone was stunned for a moment and then started laughing.

"Your dream is quite realistic." Cen Yi patted him on the back and said with a smile, "It's good that it has come true. Then you can continue to work hard."

Qi Qingyuan nodded heavily.

He grew up in the martial arts world and has been working as a martial arts stuntman since he entered the entertainment industry. He thought he would be a stuntman for the rest of his life and would never have the chance to show his face.

Until Jiang Shuming discovered him and chose him.

When a dream comes true, it always seems easy, simple and incredible. Only the person concerned knows how much he or she has paid and how long he or she has persisted before this moment.

(Why does this sound so much like a big discount at a certain store x) After a round of speeches and small talk, Jiang Shuming arranged for everyone to perform.

The third floor of the restaurant is reserved for private use, with good sound insulation and high privacy. There are two stages in the spacious hall, one is an antique stage, where people usually play the guzheng, and the other is a modern stage, which is of appropriate size and exquisite design, and does not seem to be out of harmony with the environment.

The dining table was cleared away by the waiter, and more than twenty people in the room were sitting loosely drinking tea, like a company's annual meeting, urging each other to go up and perform.

The stage was well-equipped with speakers and projection screens, so anyone could sing karaoke if they wanted to. Cen Yisui took the microphone and sang a classic song amid the noise.

This song was widely sung. Even Lin Xiaohan, the youngest in the group, would hum along. As Cen Yi sang, the whole audience began to sing along, and the atmosphere became lively.

Qi Qingyuan went on stage and performed a set of boxing with great power. Lao Qian exchanged a few moves with him and everyone was delighted. The assistant director and screenwriter pulled Jiang Shuming aside and sang the university song together. Several people from the photography crew performed a short comedy and the lighting crew improvised the lighting from below, which looked very professional and funny. Xu Qiushi stood on the stage and performed a Peking Opera excerpt. Finally, Zhao Shujing borrowed a pipa from the restaurant and performed a Suzhou Pingtan with the soft Wu dialect that calmed everyone's heart.

Qin Jue held a guitar and walked onto the stage with Lin Xiaohan.

"Wow, you come prepared!" Cen Yi said with a smile.

"Director Jiang has already instructed that it would be unacceptable if we juniors don't use snacks." Qin Jue belittled himself as a junior and said with a smile.

Lin Xiaohan sat in front of the electric piano. Qin Jue gave the pre-recorded backup music to Zhang Ming to play backstage. He then sat on a high stool holding the guitar, with a microphone stand in front of him.

"Not bad, not bad. The momentum is great." Cen Yi smiled again. He knew that Qin Jue was still live streaming on V Weibo a few days ago and was very popular.

Qin Jue closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and recalled the original intention of choosing this song.

She calmed down and said,
"Today, I am dedicating this song 'Youth' to everyone in the 'Cage' crew.

"Thank you very much for all the efforts along the way."

She nodded to Lin Xiaohan and Zhang Ming. Lin Xiaohan raised and lowered his hands, and soft piano sounds rang out.

Qin Jue held the microphone with both hands and began to sing:
"Sometimes I think too far ahead.

"Where am I in life after so many years.

"Every lovely face in front of you
will have their own tomorrow."

She caught a glimpse of Lin Xiaohan and Zhang Ming out of the corner of her eye. Both of them looked a little nervous, but they were smiling.

"Nothing can avoid saying goodbye."

The filming of "The Cage" has ended. The three months of joint efforts and every bit of time we spent together have become memories.

She looked at Cen Yi, Qi Qingyuan, and Jiang Shuming.

"Sometimes I feel a little tired."

Cen Yi, who is already a first-line actor, gritted his teeth and broke out of his comfort zone.

"Realizing your dreams is not the end."

Qi Qingyuan, who wanted to appear in a movie, suddenly achieved his goal and felt happy but at a loss as to what to do.

"I walked long and far with my head held high,
"I ran wild at the end of the world,
"but I still miss the boy I was when I was young."

Jiang Shuming, who made a lot of money by shooting many bad commercial films, found his original intention again.

"Some people are no longer seen."

The necklace on Zhang Ming's neck swayed gently as his body swayed.

"Some dreams have faded into oblivion."

Qin Jue's admission letter from Beijing University of the Arts was lying in the trash can.

"I sing every song,

"Happiness that stays."

Even so, she can still close her eyes and immerse herself in the music during the V blog live broadcast.

"Some roads require hard walking."

Zhao Shujing faced overwhelming malicious speculation and rumors until she withdrew from the show.

"Some wounds are healed with life..."

The scars on Qi Qingyuan's face and under his ears left by plastic surgery.

"I can still live, smiling."

Qin Jue slowly smiled cheerfully.

"Sometimes tragedy repeats itself.

"It seems that humans are always exploring in mistakes."

Jiang Qiuyue's hysterical face is still vivid in my mind.

"Time tests the depth of love,

"I want to prove that nothing will change."

The gentle and generous Cen Yi forced his ambition to awaken for the sake of his family;
Jiang Shuming, after making a quick buck, recalled that he was still a filmmaker;
Xu Qiushi, who had stayed in the circle for many years, was getting old;

After experiencing wind, frost, rain and snow, Zhao Shujing's temperament gradually became calm and peaceful.

"Change is the only constant."

Qin Jue's guitar sounded amidst Lin Xiaohan's soothing piano music.

The violin and keyboard chords in the background sound follow softly, forming a harmonious melody and gradually building up to a climax.

"Some people are no longer seen,

"Some dreams have been forgotten.

"I sing every song,

"Happiness that stays.

"Some roads require hard walking,

"Some wounds take life to heal.

"I can still smile and live."

The expressions of the people on and off the stage were different; some were absorbed in thought, some were feeling emotional, some were lost in thought, and some had red eyes.

Qin Jue's voice was low and soft, but it had a clear and bright tone. She looked young, but her temperament and singing voice were filled with a sense of relief after a little vicissitude, like an old man in his fifties, singing with emotion after experiencing the world.

"Sometimes there is no time to settle down,

"Time always runs ahead of the soul.

"Fortunately, there is still a little faith,
"which accompanies us through every day.

"Don't forget the boy in your heart—"

She sang softly over the sound of her violin:

"Running bravely..."

The melody gradually fades away, and after a brief pause it becomes passionate, but the passion is also bright and gentle, with a unique inspiring power.

"oh…"

After the wordless song, Qin Jue leaned towards the microphone and closed his eyes.

"The first one, young man."

The tail sounds of various instruments gradually melted into the air, leaving a gentle kiss on the corner of her slightly raised lips.

Qin Jue opened his eyes.

On the stage, the two children, Lin Xiaohan and Zhang Ming, had a slight look of ignorance and joy at having successfully completed the performance on their faces; off the stage, she looked into the eyes of Jiang Shuming, Cen Yi, Qi Qingyuan and Zhao Shujing in turn and found that each pair of eyes was like her own, full of content.

In the quiet atmosphere, Xu Qiushi clapped his hands gently.

"What a great song 'Youth'."

Qin Jue smiled, took off his guitar and put it aside, then stood up and bowed with Lin Xiaohan.

There were no cheers, no whistles, only crisp clapping and fingertips quietly wiping the corners of the eyes.

Amid the applause, Qin Jue breathed a sigh of relief.

This song "Young Man" is sung to everyone and also to herself.

From now on, she, the nineteen-year-old Qin Jue, is not pretending to anyone, nor is she forcing herself to integrate into the society and become a normal person. Instead, she is truly reborn, transformed, and returns as a young man.

She suddenly had an impulse and did the same.

Qin Jue rushed down the stage in two or three steps, bowed deeply to Jiang Shuming, then rushed to the side and gave Cen Yi a tight hug.

Cen Yi laughed loudly, rubbed her head and said:

"That's like a child!"

Qin Jue smiled and dodged his hand.

"Brother Cen, I've been wanting to say this for a long time. Please don't treat me like your son, it's really weird."

"Don't pay attention to him, he is just looking for experience in advance!" Jiang Shuming couldn't help laughing.

The place suddenly became lively, as if the wine on the table had suddenly taken its toll. Everyone was laughing and talking, and teacups and drinks were colliding with each other. No one cared whether it was strange or not. It seemed as if the old and the new, the old and the young had all melted together at this moment, in such harmony and naturalness that there was not a trace of incongruity.

"Thank you everyone! Thank you "The Cage"!"

Jiang Shuming said this with red eyes, then raised the teacup and drank it all.

On Qin Jue's left is Cen Yi, and on his right is Lin Xiaohan, both of them are smiling.

Her hands clinked glasses with many others randomly, and no one paid attention to the height of the cups.

Lin Xiaohan drank up the orange juice, and Qin Jue downed the Coke in one gulp.

She suddenly discovered that the Fat House Happy Water was truly happy.

Chapter 42 Ghost Animal Video (Seeking Recommendation)

The lively team building ended, and everyone took group photos one by one. Qin Jue wore a black vest as a base, and a slightly thicker white shirt on the outside. He took off his coat when he was laughing and asked everyone present to sign it.

She vaguely remembered that everyone did the same thing when she graduated from junior high school, but at that time she didn't have many friends in her class and she just watched silently and had never had such an experience.

"Yes, that's it, look."

Qin Jue smiled and lifted up the back of his shirt to show it to the camera.

She is live streaming on Vblog again.

[I admire it! I want it! ]

"You want it?" Qin Jue smiled, his expression sincere and innocent, with a bit of timidity, "Then think about it."

【? ? 】

[Wow, the famous anchor is here to criticize fans again, right?]

【Traditional performing arts】

"That's right."

Qin Jue folded his shirt into a small square and put it down, then asked casually, "What was that video you recommended to me in the comments section before?"

【Hahahahahahaha here it comes】

【It's the part I'm most looking forward to!】

The barrage of comments scrolled by, all sending the same string of numbers. As soon as you see the first two letters "ev", you know it is a video from E station.

E-Station is a well-known large website in Longguo. It was originally designed by a college student in Sichuan Province who was obsessed with Ni Province animation and designed a webpage specifically for two-dimensional enthusiasts to post videos. Later, with the rise of Internet culture, it grew gradually and opened up new sections such as music and life areas, and it is extremely popular among young people.

Qin Jue registered E-station very early. She learned piano at the age of six and a half, and guitar and singing at the age of eleven. When Qin Jingsheng was still a good father, he used his mobile phone to shoot videos of her playing and singing. At that time, mobile phone memory was not as large as it is now, so Qin Jue uploaded the video to E-station, not to see herself, but just to check the watermark in the lower right corner from time to time.

It says: Video by QJS.

Qin Jue taught him how to use the word by. Qin Jingsheng memorized it while praising her.

Qin Jue's hand paused as he was entering his account number.

"I have a really good memory."

She whispered, smiled subtly, and continued to enter the password and log into E Station.

E-Station and V-Blog both require identity information registration, but E-Station is stricter than V-Blog. Each person has a unique account and it is linked to the credit reporting system. It only has an anonymous comment function compared to V-Blog, with a daily cap of 120 times, and the lower the level, the fewer times.

【Um?】

[What am I seeing right?]

[Help, Lang Lang is actually a level 6 boss on E-station! ! ]

"Yes." Qin Jue opened the search bar nonchalantly, "Old second dimension."

It is very troublesome to change accounts on E-station, so even though she didn't want to see the watermark later, she still kept using it.

After all, E-station has more and more resources in recent years, including crosstalk and sketches. As long as you are willing, you can even study hard on E-station.

When she was taking the art exam, the videos on E Station helped her a lot.

"?"

After entering the ev number, a video popped up and Qin Jue was stunned.

"A devil?"

【Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha】

[Good guys, don't dance in front of the real owner#funny]

Qin Jue was stunned for two seconds, and dug out relevant knowledge points from his body's memory. Oh, it turned out to be a type of video, edited through fast-repeating materials and rhythmic BGM (background music), with a strong comedic effect, and a new culture that has been popular in recent years.

It sounds interesting. She didn't have this thing before she was reborn.

The title of this ghost video is "Anchor online scolds fans". Qin Jue glanced at the introduction and found out that her live broadcast educating fans that day was on the real-time list and was discovered by the producer, who used it as ghost material.

Vblog's live broadcast replay is publicly authorized by default. For non-commercial purposes, it can be used freely as long as it does not deliberately distort the facts or maliciously slander.

Qin Jue moved his small window to the lower right corner and clicked on the ghost video.

"Hello friends who clicked in.

"I am I am, I am I am Qin Jue.

"I only represent myself, that's all.

"This is my character.

"Yes, ah, he is such a person, and his temper is also average.

"I'm an actor, I earn money.

"Don't blame me, don't blame me for being direct, you don't have to pay me.

"Friends who send gifts will be blocked.

"You are a minor and you are giving gifts. You are wasting money. I will block you for three days."

The melody is simple and direct, and the content is extremely brainwashing.

Qin Jue gradually lost control of his facial expression and burst into laughter.

"What a retarded thing, hahahaha." She leaned back with laughter, her shoulders shaking.

【Hahahahahaha why are you scolding yourself!】

[Langlang, wake up! ! ]

The video was still playing, and Qin Jue was coughing with laughter. She couldn't control her desire to watch these stupid works while wondering if people were so idle in a harmonious society.

From this we can see that sand sculpture is the eternal god.

This ghost video was too brainwashing. It lasted for more than four minutes. Qin Jue laughed so hard that the tips of his ears turned red and his eyes curved into a line.

The comments also followed her in laughing, with goose, duck, pig and dog sounds making various degrees of barking.

The species are quite complete.

After the video was played, Qin Jue took a deep breath with a lingering smile, but still couldn't help laughing: "It's pretty impressive, it's really impressive."

She was very polite in giving the video maker a thumbs up, coins, and collection, and at the end she smacked her lips and exclaimed:

"Hey, I just realized that I have a good sense of rhythm when I speak."

[Hahahahahahahaha my god, you still give people a one-click triple combo]

[I laughed so hard my head flew off]

[Rhythm goose goose, then little wolf come and sing a rap]

"Rap?"

Qin Jue narrowed her eyes and thought about it. She had actually dubbed a song with rap in it recently.

I remember.

"Okay, then I'll try it." She started to answer the singing microphone.

【? woc really comes when he says so】

[Brother Wolf, you have many skills]

[Woo woo woo, little wolf dotes on his fans]

[Lang Lang, don't force yourself. How about you just sing along with the ghost song? ]

[There's a devil in front, hahahahahahahahahaha]

"Wait a minute." Qin Jue opened the folder with the words "Daily Arrangement Practice" written on it and looked for the name among a pile of project files.

[Eh?]

[Brother, didn't you say that the song was written by a big shot you know? ]

"…"

Qin Jue's mouse pointer stopped awkwardly.

She didn't switch to the live page!

Still sharing the screen!
... Qin Jue used all his acting skills and smiled very naturally:
"Yes, sir, you are so nice. You sent me all the project files."

Ah, it turns out that the elderly are not suitable for live streaming.

She wore a smiling mask, but her heart was crying.

Obviously, these songs were not written by her, and she could have admitted that she wrote them originally. Why, why did she feel so guilty subconsciously? She was obviously twice as happy...

[Oh, I see.]

[That's not right, Brother Xiaolang, the name of your folder is Daily Arrangement Practice? ]

"…"

Go away, I don't have a sister like you.

Qin Jue's eyebrows twitched: "Well, the big guys gave me the main melody, and I usually practice composing music when I have nothing to do."

[Brother, you look so guilty]

Qin Jue laughed dryly twice: "Is there? No."

The fan in the barrage just happened to argue with her: [Brother Xiaolang, I have looked for the creators of the songs you sang before, and many of them are unrecognizable. Even if I found the names, it seems that they are not the ones who wrote the songs. ]

I really want to block her.

No, this is abusing power for personal gain and it is wrong.

Qin Jue tried hard to suppress the urge to speak out against others, ignored the barrage of comments, and switched the page back to the camera, so that only he could be seen in the live broadcast room.

But it was of no use, as many people in the barrage were already confused and echoed the sentiment.

So, setting the tone is harmful to others.

Qin Jue endured it for a moment, didn't roll his eyes, sighed and said: "Don't argue, okay, I'll be frank. When I was learning to compose and arrange music, I joined a Feixun group on the Internet. Everyone in it was talented, spoke very nicely, and was very good. Everyone was wearing a vest and didn't want to reveal their real name. I bought a lot of songs from them and sang them myself, and I also want to recruit them to my personal studio in the future. Now I'm testing the waters for live broadcasts to see how everyone responds to the songs-"

She maintained a kind smile and asked gently:

"Is it okay? Do you understand? Is it okay now?"

[Xiaolang, your expression right now is so scary hhhh]

[Lang Lang: You guys are so annoying, I really want to be a shark man]

「Oh…I see.」

[Qin Xiaolang is annoyed by being asked this question, hahahahaha]

[You look really handsome when you are impatient but force yourself to speak ]

Finally I managed to fool him.

Qin Jue knew that she would have to face this problem one day, but at least she didn't want it to be now. She found the song, which was in the folder of semi-finished products. No wonder she had been looking for it for so long.

"Okay, what are you thinking? If I was the original author, why wouldn't I admit it? I'm not stupid."

She said casually, adding the last accompaniment track of the song by memory, and then opened the lyrics file next to it, "Come on, get ready to listen to the song."

After a pause, he added: "I have never sung rap before, so please bear with me. If it doesn't sound good, just treat it as a ghost story."

[Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha, it's okay to listen to ghost videos]

[I understand, I understand. We are very smart (dog head)]

Qin Jue coughed a few times, adjusted his voice, and clicked on the accompaniment audio.

"Particles one by one, one by one, make up you..."

(End of this chapter) Chapter 43 "Particles" (Please recommend)

That's right, the song Qin Jue chose was "Particles" sung by Earth female singer Yu Zhen.

When she was practicing arranging music, she consciously absorbed music that was different from the popular style of Blue Star. The characteristic of "Particles" is that although it is rap music, the overall beat, including the selected instrumental materials, has a cold and ethereal feeling of loneliness. While rap mostly uses fast lyrics to criticize current affairs or vent emotions, this song with a cosmic color has a cold and grand structure, forming a wonderful and strong contrast.

In the initial hook paragraph, Qin Jue's voice was slightly hoarse, but his pronunciation and tone sounded extremely ethereal.

Immediately after this section ends, the solemn melody is cleverly connected to the rap section, and the lyrics return to the common theme - love.

"When you appear in a place where strangers gather,
you automatically become the focus of the crowd."

"And I noticed when I appeared,
"You blushed silently and began to burn your face.

"I couldn't help looking at you,
"You were so conspicuous when you looked at me.

"Let's create chaos,
get away from the crowds and explore outside."

Qin Jue emphasized the vowels in the words, and the tone at the end of the sentence fell, hitting the end of the rhythm.

This passage is written from the first person's perspective, instantly depicting the scene of two people meeting for the first time in front of the audience's eyes. It is clearly talking about love at first sight, but these four words are not explicitly spoken.

"Dear devil, too dangerous and too beautiful.

"From pupil to hair tip, the night sky is painted without ink.

"I buy clothes, bags, land, diamonds, shoes for you, and never care about it.

"Injured, hurt, suffered, praised or criticized, I am still fearless for you.

"Wu~
"I have traveled through countless galaxies.

"Wu~
"Most of the time I am alone and have nowhere to go,

"Stop~
" "I never thought anyone could stop me."

The pause in this section is very interesting. At the same time, the appearance of "galaxy" brings back the loneliness from the hook. Particles form people one by one, and the cold laws of physics write a dedicated love. The "you" in the lyrics is the only one who can make the singer stop and sacrifice for it.

Qin Jue opened and closed his lips quickly against the microphone, singing the next two fast lines, and then continuing to the next hook, repeating this process until he reached the end.

"I don't care whether I can go to heaven after I die.

"Sing loudly when you're drunk beside me.

"I'll get drunk with you and sleep with you.

"I will block the will of the gods for you,
" the believers sang devoutly.

As the last melody fell, Qin Jue left the microphone, his chin slightly raised, his eyelids drooped, his expression cold and indifferent, as if a god was looking down on all living beings from the indifferent universe. However, there was a hint of fatigue in his eyes that inadvertently revealed his presence. It was obvious at a glance that this "god" was extremely infatuated with a tiny human being, but was struggling to chase after him/her.

She paused for a few seconds, coughed twice and returned to normal.

"good?"

Qin Jue smiled at the camera.

[It's OK? You're telling me it's OK?]

[Redefining "OK"]

[What a cool song! ! ]

[Xiaolang's rap is so awesome! ! Is this why you're called Qin Jue?]

"That's not the case. That's not how I got the character in my name."

Qin Jue read out the barrage of comments one by one. Many of her fans came just to listen to her songs, and at this time the barrage pool exploded again.

"Please scroll slower. I can't read the barrage as rap," she said helplessly.

Although she could see clearly with her dynamic vision, being able to keep up with the eyes and being able to keep up with the mouth are two different things.

[Hahahahahahahahaha it's not impossible]

[The lyrics are great! I wanted to write them down while listening, but I forgot them as I was listening]

"Hahahahahaha." Qin Jue laughed out loud with glee, "I'll upload the audio later, it's okay."

[Are you considering releasing a song officially, Langlang? ]

"No." Qin Jue answered immediately, "I'm not short of money now."

Mori Ran made a lot of money in the stock market.

[I really want to use it as background music! Can I ask for permission? ? ]

[Yes, yes, yes, the same goes for the previous song! ]

【Can I sing a cover? 】

Someone started a post and immediately a lot of comments popped up.

"Sure, mark the original work. Uh, just mark it according to the production information I wrote."

Qin Jue touched his chin and suddenly an idea came to him.

"Why don't I upload it to M Station and everyone can pick it up?"

M Station is a global music website. Any song that is more than 80% completed can be uploaded. Compared with the individual music resource websites of each country, M Station is more free. Even if it is a version that Qin Jue did not go to the recording studio and only sang in the live broadcast, as long as the sound quality is acceptable, it can be uploaded.

Everyone in the barrage said yes, and Qin Jue switched the live broadcast to his own computer page and operated it in front of them.

She has always liked full openness and transparency so that everyone can feel involved.

First, he sorted out the English songs that Sen Ran had captured and uploaded to the V blog network disk. There were a total of thirteen songs. He also clicked on the recording of "Particles" while singing. Because the room was soundproofed and the microphone equipment was of good quality, Qin Jue only symbolically did a noise reduction process and began to mix.

Composition, arrangement, and mixing are not the same thing, but they are not too separate. Many musicians, especially those who use software to tune virtual singers, often have the same person to write lyrics, compose music, arrange music, and mix music, and are jokingly called "all-in-one machines." Qin Jue is also like this. His mixing level is not very outstanding, but it is not far behind. In addition, the accompaniment has been almost done before, so it is not difficult to complete.

Bluestar respects copyright and originality, and M Station also has detailed options when uploading music. For example, "I allow this song to be used in other occasions (including background music for various film and television works)", "I allow this song to be covered (including re-lyrics and re-arrangement)", etc. In addition, there is also the option of whether to use it for commercial purposes, which is detailed to every step, and the rights of creators are protected to the greatest extent possible.

Qin Jue propped up his head and thought for a while, and set the permissions for these songs to be free for non-commercial use, while commercial use requires requesting authorization in his own column and stating the specific circumstances.

This is a relatively common permission setting template, and many professional singers also use this template when releasing albums.

She filled in the production information one by one. Many musicians like to release songs under pseudonyms, so there is no need to worry about being held accountable for this. As long as one of the people uploading the song is in the production team and has passed the online identity information review, there will be no problem with uploading.

Qin Jue thought about it and added her own name in the arrangement column. She hesitated when marking the original singer. She could only say sorry to the original singer in her heart, moved them to the demo position, and wrote the name Qin Jue in the original singer's place with a blushing face.

[Why does the little wolf look so reluctant?]

[I always feel like I have discovered some truth...]

[In the previous paragraph, I guess I was thinking the same thing as you]

That's all. Qin Jue glanced at the comments. She also respected the originality to the greatest extent. Although she copied the score, she did put in effort in arranging and singing. There was no need to be too pretentious to write a name.

She left Mori Ran's email address in the contact information section, marked her agent, and clicked batch upload.

M Station quickly responded to the internal message, informing Qin Jue that the song had entered the review process. After the staff verified that there was no plagiarism and that the song was not moved without authorization, they would open up download permissions. The review would take five to seven working days.

Then she switched to the English version, took a screenshot, and posted it on HF.

HF (Hello Friends) is a commonly used external social media, similar to the domestic V-blog. Sen Ran also uploaded a video of Qin Jue's last live singing here. Many people found this place through search engines and shouted "Found the Times Square Boy".

She has even more fans on the Internet than on Weibo.

[Langlang, have you forgotten something? ]

"Hmm? What?"

【What about the song with Xiao Han!】

[Yes, I've been waiting for that song.]

"Well." Qin Jue smiled, "It's not up to me to say. Let's see whether it will be released after the movie is released. The video was indeed filmed."

【OK-】

"I may not sing new songs in the next period of time, and the live broadcast is to be determined." After Qin Jue was done, he remembered to switch back to the page this time, "I plan to practice in seclusion before the audition."

[Ah, I can't see the little wolf every day anymore]

[It's okay, it's okay, business is more important]

【Good luck in the audition!】

Another stream of messages rolled up in the barrage pool. Qin Jue read a few of them and smacked his lips, "It's really inhumane."

[Hahahahaha you are criticizing the platform again]

"I can see clearly, but my mouth can't keep up." Qin Jue smiled.

She had been live streaming for nearly an hour and a half this time, and chatted with fans for a few minutes before going offline.

It felt good to communicate with people. In a peaceful era, no one could live alone without any contact with others. Although it also brought certain social constraints, for Qin Jue, it helped her maintain her human touch.

After sending a message to Zhang Ming, telling him that he didn't need to come over for a few days, Qin Jue lay down on the bed, the big bed in the bedroom, not the steel bed with restraints.

The film and television space can train her acting skills, but acting requires the mobilization of body muscles, and learning only in the space feels disconnected from reality. As the strength of her soul increases, Qin Jue can gradually control the time when her sadistic desire strikes, leaving a gap for herself to leave the space and strike while the iron is hot to review her acting skills.

But today her plans were a little different.

Mossen in "Rain in the Daytime" is a person whose psychology is distorted by school violence. She did a lot of analysis and wrote half a biography of the character, but still felt that it was not as good as experiencing it personally.

School violence?

Unfortunately, she had experienced it too.

When the circus elephant was young, it was tied with a rope and could not break free. After this left a firm cognitive imprint, even when it grew up, it would no longer try to break free from the rope.

If Qin Jue, who came back from the end of the world, wanted to feel those emotions personally, the best way was to recall his memory and experience it again.

In the virtual space, facing the assistant left by Sen Ran, Qin Jue calmed down and said softly:
"Mobilize my memory."

She wants to go back to that time again.

Accept once again the pain and despair you once had.

Chapter 44 He Xu (Please vote for recommendation)

Qin Jue suddenly opened his eyes and his heart beat rapidly.

A strong feeling of nausea rose up in her throat. She propped herself up and retched a few times to one side, pinching her throat with one hand.

After waiting for more than ten seconds, Qin Jue put on his slippers and slowly walked to the dressing mirror.

The boy in the mirror had a pale face, a few strands of saliva on his lips, his nostrils flaring, and fear lingering in his eyes.

She remembered this expression along with her heavy heart.

After a while, Qin Jue leaned forward and touched his forehead to his own.

She wiped her lips clean, panted weakly, and whispered softly:
"Qin Jue is very happy today."

"Qin Jue is very happy today..."

…

At the end of November, Qin Jue took Zhang Ming to Ni Province.

The Dragon Kingdom has a vast territory, covering the entire Asia. Just as the United States is equivalent to America, the Dragon Kingdom, which is composed of dozens of ethnic groups, is also synonymous with Asia.

Ni Province is one of the provinces of Longguo, mainly inhabited by the Yamato people. Like the Earth in the parallel world, Longguo experienced a period of war, but the time and details were different, which also affected the land area and the number of provinces.

"Wow... I haven't been to Ni Province yet, it's really like what I saw online!"

Zhang Ming walked on the street, sighing constantly.

As a new province in modern times, Ni Province has a unique culture that has evolved over a long period of time. Whether it is architectural style or language and clothing, it has its own flavor.

"Rain in the Daytime" is also adapted from Ni Sheng's novel. Although the original work was written in Mandarin Chinese, Qin Jue still added some of Ni Sheng's local language and combined it to understand the original text.

In fact, the news that Mr. He Xu was coming back to cast for a new movie had already caused a stir in October. Countless media and paparazzi tried to get the news and visited every film and television base in China, but they didn't expect that Director He would choose a small town in Ni Province as the casting location.

Jiang Shuming whispered in Qin Jue's ear that Mr. He was a true artist and had a somewhat eccentric temper, but his attitude towards film and television was first-class. He told her that she didn't need to act like a junior and should just be open and generous in expressing herself.

Qin Jue and Zhang Ming arrived at the destination three days in advance. One of the lessons the end of the world taught her was to respect and be relieved about force majeure. As long as she did her best and had no regrets, it was enough. Therefore, she did not feel too much psychological pressure.

She had read an interview with Director He and knew that with this director's vision and status, he would never resort to unnecessary unspoken rules and conflicts of interest. So even if she was not chosen, the only reason was that she was not strong enough or not suitable for the role. Qin Jue could accept both of these points calmly.

The place they stayed was a guesthouse that Sen Ran had booked. Qin Jue had the master bedroom and Zhang Ming had the second bedroom. The bathroom was separated, so there was no need to worry about privacy. Qin Jue didn't wear any makeup, and he wasn't a troublemaker. Zhang Ming always brought food home at public expense, and he would eat whatever he bought, never picking and choosing. This made Zhang Ming feel embarrassed, and he felt like he was the one being taken care of. Qin Jue slapped him on the forehead again.

It's fun to amuse children.

Qin, over fifty years old, big boss, is extremely happy.

He Xu's staff sent an email to inform him of the specific location and time of the audition. On the day of the audition, Qin Jue got up early. He didn't read the script like he did the previous two days, nor did he mess around with his looks. He just opened his phone and watched the interview that Director He had accepted not long ago.

The interview was conducted by a well-known host in Longguo. Her sharp and precise language style is one of her characteristics.

She asked, "Does Mr. He have any requirements for the casting of this movie?"

He Xu in the video is well-maintained, with slightly gray hair and a serious expression.

"Young one." He said slowly, his attitude leaving no room for doubt.

"Oh? Young? Do you want to try a new style, and your target audience is the contemporary young group?"

He Xu laughed twice without showing any joy or anger, and did not answer the question directly.

"Nowadays, actors who are good at acting and have experience just hold on to the resources, and all the good dramas and movies are played by them, and they pretend not to know whether they are suitable or not.

"Actresses in their 40s and 50s are clearly the age and temperament to play roles of patriotism, but they are playing teenage boys and girls. Haha, they don't know how to choose roles. What kind of status and temperament do they have? Don't they have any self-awareness? I see, it's not that they don't have self-awareness, it's just that they can't bear to give up fame and status!"

These words were pungent and sharp. If He Xu was not in such a high position, saying them would probably cause a lot of trouble.

The host was also a well-known speaker with a high status. He was not afraid and smiled:

"Mr. He is leading by example. Do you want to discover some outstanding young actors?"

He Xu sneered: "The old actors are in charge of the good shows, while the inferior young actors are just selling their looks in the shows. The two sides do not interfere with each other, and a group of stratified audiences are cultivated. The high-quality audience has no shows to watch, and the entertainment is barren, while the low-quality audience applauds and watches and is done with it."

"People in their 40s are playing people in their 20s. What are the young actors who can act, dare to act, and know how to act supposed to act? Bad scripts are everywhere. Look at what the audiences are like now!
"It is always said that there is a lack of young actors. The good ones are all from the last generation. But if actors don't have a good environment, mature and full-bodied roles, and a logically self-consistent and moving script, what can they do?"

Mr. He snorted coldly.

If the things produced in recent years have not become worse and worse, how could this retired old man come back to the entertainment industry!
"The TV series are too bad, the movies are too bad, the programs are too bad, and one by one, they all say it is the fault of the screenwriter, the director, and the TV station." He Xu became more and more angry, "Bullshit! It's all the audience's fault!"

"When talking about war, they cannot face up to the cruelty of war and empty-handedly preach justice and victory; when talking about people, they must give up philosophical thinking and not talk about fate or soul! When talking about love, they can't talk about love, can't write about love, and can't act out love. The plot is all about family matters and instigating reproduction; when talking about two people talking about love, there is no sexual tension, no beauty, only brainless and fake affection!"

He Xu sneered:
"I would like to ask the audience, why do you want to watch this kind of rubbish!

"It is precisely because the audience's requirements are too low and their aesthetic standards are so narrow that as long as the picture is acceptable, they will either praise it excessively or ignore it. Therefore, people who make programs, TV series and movies are content with the status quo and make money without doing anything!

"People who make this kind of money are so shameless!
" "The audience who praises this kind of people to the sky are even more shameless!"

"Everyone is shameless!"

He is fifty years old, but he is still strong and full of energy.

"If this continues, what will the entertainment environment of Dragon Country become?"

He Xu had endured these words for too long, and now he cursed them out loud with a gusto, but he was still angry.

Qin Jue held the phone, pulled the progress bar back, and looked at it again.

These words were very much to her liking, and made her feel relaxed all over.

Indeed, whether in a peaceful society or in an environment like the end of the world, there are many people who do not understand the overall situation.

In the end times, those who are self-centered and only care about petty gains will most likely be severely hit by natural disasters and man-made calamities. On the contrary, in a harmonious society, people live in peace and are immersed in a bizarre new life. People without a certain level of realm will find it difficult to realize the macro picture and consider the overall situation in a warm environment, let alone have any sense of honor, mission and responsibility.

If they can't even understand life, how can they talk about the higher and more distant national affairs?
When Qin Jue spoke directly in the live broadcast room, some people were still enthusiastically playing with memes and laughing, as if any serious matter could be turned into a "meme" in the mouths of the people, turning solemnity into a joke, ignoring social reality, and creating a false sense of happiness.

Isn't it ridiculous to entertain oneself to death?
Zhang Ming's knock on the door interrupted Qin Jue's thoughts. She looked up and saw that it was seven o'clock in the morning.

The audition time was at nine o'clock. Qin Jue asked Zhang Ming to wait at the B&B, and he went downstairs alone and walked towards the small building not far away.

She saw many people wearing sunglasses and masks. Some of them were only followed by two or three people, while others seemed to be parents sending their children to school, and they wanted to bring their entire families with them, for fear that others would not know they were there for an audition.

Qin Jue walked into the building like a passerby and nodded in return to the girl who was standing at the door and bowed to her.

As she passed by a few people in the hall, she heard the heavily made-up woman inside whispering quickly and hurriedly:

"Listen carefully, this is Director He. He has finally chosen a young actor. It doesn't matter what role you play or how you play it. If you can get close to Director He, you will never have to worry about not being famous in your life!"

Qin Jue turned around and naturally walked past the elevator and took the stairs.

He Xu said something very well at the end of the interview. Some people just won't understand even if you point your finger at them and teach them in person.

If you are obsessed with profit, you will end up doing nothing.

Chapter 45: "Daytime Rain" Audition (Part 1) (Please vote for recommendation)

Arriving on the third floor, two girls in suits and skirts were standing not far away. Qin Jue showed the electronic audition invitation letter. One of them scanned the code to register, and the other pointed her to the room.

"Thank you." Qin Jue nodded politely.

The room was designed in Ni style. After turning the handle, there was a narrow entrance. Qin Jue took off his shoes and put them away. After pushing the inner door open horizontally, he saw groups of three or four people, all of them young men with good looks.

Their eyes also fell on Qin Jue.

"Hello, everyone." Qin Jue was not afraid and nodded slightly.

No one answered, but she didn't feel embarrassed and just found a corner to sit down.

Qin Jue seemed to be in a daze, but he actually took in everyone's physical features and eye temperament when he entered the room. They were generally between 19 and 28 years old, and no matter what their actual age was, they all looked very young, without beards, with long or short hair, showing a feminine and thin image, which could be seen to be specially designed.

Qin Jue has been training in the film and television world for a month, so it is not difficult for him to judge whether a person has a potential or not. Among the people facing her, two have obviously empty eyes, but the one diagonally opposite her always maintains a sinister look, which looks very attractive.

On the contrary, she herself sat naturally and openly. Not to mention a perverted murderer, people would believe her if she went to the podium holding the Three Good Students Award certificate.

Time passed by minute by minute, and more people came in one after another. Most of them didn't say a word, but just nodded slightly to the gazes that greeted them. As the stipulated time approached, the temperaments of some of them became noticeably gloomy, and it seemed that they were preparing for the role in advance.

The audition officially began at nine o'clock in the morning.

The two girls who were guiding people outside the door walked in and walked straight towards someone.

"Mr. Liu?"

"Yes, yes." Liu Zhe stood up in a panic. Was it a one-person audition? He was not the first one to come. Why did they suddenly find him?
"Please move aside."

The other one smiled sweetly.

"Puff."

Someone in the room couldn't help but laugh out loud. Liu Zhe's face turned red and he stepped aside.

Sitting next to him was Qin Jue. She knocked on the ground and looked up and said, "Don't be nervous, you're just blocking something."

Liu Zhe looked at her blankly: "What am I blocking..."

Before he finished speaking, two girls found the mechanism and opened the secret door on the left and right.

The auditioners in the room all changed color.

There is a secret door here!

Are there any hidden cameras?

Oops, did I just do something out of character?

Especially the one who laughed at Liu Zhe out loud, his originally fair face looked as if it was painted with a layer of red and white paint, and he looked uneasy.

Some people even turned their eyes to Qin Jue. This kid...did he already know about this? !

really.

Qin Jue had discovered the mechanisms and cameras early on, but ignored them and simply found a seat close to the door to sit down.

After all, she was too lazy to queue.

As expected, two guides stood at the door and asked the auditionees to enter one by one.

Qin Jue stood up and patted the frozen Liu Zhe: "Aren't you going in?"

"Oh oh." Liu Zhe came back to his senses, scratched his face and followed her.

The two girls took out makeup remover wipes and handed them to them.

It turns out there is this process.

After staying in the dull room for more than an hour, although I am not tired, it would be nice to have something to wake me up.

Qin Jue unfolded the wet towel and covered his face, rubbing it up and down as if washing his face.

One of the girls curled the corners of her mouth, trying hard to hold back her laughter.

"Is this okay?"

Qin Jue saw Liu Zhe spread out the wet wipes for them to check, so he did the same.

"Sure, please come in." The other person took back the wet wipes and said softly.

"Thank you very much."

…

After walking a short distance, the view suddenly opened up.

This was a medium-sized hall, with three seats at the front. In the middle sat Mr. He Xu. Then there were various cameras surrounding the hall, leaving a space of about 30 square meters. The cameramen stood behind the cameras. In addition, there were six screens hanging from the ceiling, three facing inwards for the interviewers including He Xu to see, and three facing outwards, facing the rows of seats. Two directors sat in the seats on one side, switching the camera positions at any time.

With this setting, people in the open space can be seen clearly from all angles.

Qin Jue and his group came in from the back of the room. The back seats were occupied by agents, company assistants, etc. who were accompanying the artists to the audition. Some of them did not expect this to be a fully public audition and their faces turned pale, while others were relieved, as if they felt more at ease seeing someone familiar.

"Why does it feel so much like an art exam?" Qin Jue heard someone muttering softly.

After they took their seats in the front row, two girls came over and asked them to draw lots. Qin Jue's was the nineteenth, a number at the back.

He Xu's gaze slowly swept across the faces of each of them. The old man's eyes were clear and sharp, and there was a strong sense of oppression.

After just a glance, he slowly read out a dozen numbers, and finally said,
"The above, eliminated."

What?!

Just a glance?
Half of the people said no and that was it!
"Why did you-"

One of the auditioners who was called stood up suddenly, scaring his agent who was sitting behind him half to death.

"How rude! Come here!" the agent whispered quickly, apologizing to Mr. He with a smile.

The man was still somewhat unwilling to accept it, and was dragged away by the agent unwillingly.

The other people looked pale as death. Qin Jue was not among them. She saw their reactions and shook her head slightly like He Xu.

Of the twelve people pointed out by He Xu, eight were feminine and timid, lacked explosive power, had eyes full of thoughts, were erratic and lacked tenacity. As for the remaining four, two were too vicious, one was reckless and arrogant, and one was too mediocre.

As expected of the person who taught Jiang Shuming, Qin Jue thought. His eyesight is really first-rate.

"Thank you Director He for your guidance." The woman, who looked very ordinary after removing her makeup, bowed and said politely, "Excuse me, can I stay and learn for a while?"

The attitude is sincere.

He Xu nodded without comment. The man was delighted, smiled and bowed again to express his gratitude.

The others followed suit. He Xu was impatient to listen to this, so he waved his hand and the scene became quiet.

"The rest."

He Xu spoke, and everyone present sat up straight.

"Ten minutes to prepare, and act like Mossen."

Play Mawson?

What to act out? Which part to act out?
The nine people, including Qin Jue, either looked at each other or pondered. Some raised their hands to ask questions, but He Xu closed his eyes and ignored them, making it clear that he wanted them to think for themselves.

The instructor came forward again and distributed a bottle of plasma to each person.

Those who received the props all showed an expression of enlightenment and began to think about which scene they would perform.

Qin Jue looked at the plasma, frowned, and raised his hand.

Her action was no less than when someone suddenly hands in their paper five minutes into an exam. Everyone around her was a little startled, but they all managed to control themselves.

"Number 19, what's the problem?" asked a slightly plump, kind-looking middle-aged man next to He Xu. The name tag in front of him read "Tang Ting".

Qin Jue: "Is there any water?"

Tsk, so that's how it is.

The man sitting next to her across the seat glanced at her and said, "Young people nowadays are so delicate. They are so picky even when drinking plasma."

He was experienced and had already thought of the performance segment. He unscrewed the bottle of plasma and took a small sip, setting an example for Qin Jue to see.

Tang Ting deliberately showed his displeasure: "There will be water for rinsing your mouth after the performance."

You see, I was told that. The man thought with blood in his mouth. The young actor just doesn't like to be wronged. How can he act well like this? No wonder Director He was disappointed.

Qin Jue: "No, this blood is too thick, it's obviously fake, I'll add some water to mix it up."

Phew!

The person next to her suddenly had a distorted face and almost vomited blood.

There were many people who did the same as him. At this time, they all had a mouthful of blood in their mouths, unable to spray it out or swallow it.

The scene was very embarrassing for a while.

The two girls who served as instructors both smiled slightly, but tried hard to hold it back.

Tang Ting also smiled: "Get him a bottle of water."

Qin Jue Duan thanked the girl who took the water and the paper cup, and under the resentful gazes of everyone, he calmly poured out nearly two-fifths of the plasma, then poured water into it, tightened the bottle cap, and shook it.

After shaking it for a few minutes, he stopped and held it up to examine its color and appearance with satisfaction, as if he was in a chemistry laboratory.

Others: "…"

This guy is so annoying.

The ten-minute preparation time was over quickly, and the person next to Qin Jue stood up and walked into the open space. He was number two, and the first, third, and fourth places were all rejected by Mr. He, so he became number one.

His psychological quality was quite good, and being interrupted by Qin Jue did not affect his mood and state.

After Tang Ting gave the instructions, he turned sideways to He Xu in front of him and the audience behind him and began his performance.

Qin Jue's expression changed slightly immediately.

This guy's acting is so steady!
