With a "ding" sound, the elevator arrived.
Bai Ye glanced at Qi Xingchen and turned to enter the car.
Qi Xingchen acted as if he hadn't said anything shocking. He shamelessly dragged Han Qing, who was still doubting life, into the car.
In the entertainment industry, it was common for A-list celebrities to be fans of B-list celebrities. There were even winners in life who chased their idols to their own household register.
Especially with Bai Ye's current popularity, many veteran actors said that they liked him, so Qi Xingchen didn't think that this sentence would arouse Bai Ye's suspicion.
He said this to get closer to Bai Ye. Originally, he planned to plan slowly, but who knew that the plot would be brought forward so much. If he didn't want to die, he had to speed up.
Also, he had to get a spot in "Traveling Together". He couldn't let Zhou Yu and the female lead meet.
He had to observe the male and female lead's movements closely so that he could save himself immediately if something happened.
As the elevator went up, Bai Ye didn't say anything.
Through the inner wall of the car, he could vaguely see that he was looking straight ahead. Qi Xingchen couldn't see through his thoughts.
The dance practice room was on the sixth floor. After getting off the elevator, Han Qing patted her chest. "Damn, I'm dying of boredom!
When did you fall in love with Bai Ye? Why didn't I know? "
Qi Xingchen felt that this sentence was ambiguous. "It's not 'fall in love'. It's like a fan liking an idol."
"I didn't say it's anything else … Isn't your idol James?"
"I changed." Qi Xingchen casually made an excuse. "After you left last night, Senior Bai Ye happened to pass by the practice room. He saw that I was dancing wrong and gave me a few pointers.
I think he's handsome, strong, and protective of the younger generation, so I became his fan. "
Han Qing was so angry that tears and snot flowed down her face. She regretted that she didn't stay last night and get a few pointers from Bai Ye.
Especially after seeing Qi Xingchen's rapid improvement, he couldn't help but grumble.
"Growing up has always been a lonely road. Thinking and practice are much more important than guidance." Qi Xingchen rolled up the leg of her sweatpants. Her slender ankles glowed white as she interrupted him. "Xiaoqing, play the music. Dance ten times with me first."
Han Qing was speechless. Mommy, I'm going to die!
Boys at this age were like that. If they were alone, they would easily slack off if their willpower wasn't strong enough.
However, if someone pulled him along, he would have to endure until the end for the sake of his reputation.
Towards the end, Han Qing's soul had already left his body.
However, even though Qi Xingchen was very familiar with it, he still patiently looked for the angle of the arm and the fixed position over and over again. He did not want to admit defeat just like that.
After ten rounds, Han Qing sprawled out on the ground. "Xing Xing, are you possessed by something dirty? Why are you suddenly so energetic?"
"How can you master it if you don't work hard?" Qi Xingchen tossed a sports drink to Han Qing. "Get up and do it five more times."
Han Qing was speechless. "… F * ck."
Small artists with no activities had a lot of time. In the afternoon, Qi Xingchen dragged Han Qing to the piano room for a few hours.
When it was close to dinnertime, Han Qing ran out to answer a phone call.
When she came back, she was glowing. She waved her phone at Qi Xingchen. "Xing Xing, after two months, my agent finally remembered me!"
"Is there an announcement?"
"No, it's the audition for 'Traveling Together'." Han Qing smiled. "He said that he sent my information to the producer. As long as I'm selected this time, we'll be fine."
In fact, Han Qing's physical attributes were not bad. She was cute and her singing and dancing skills were above average. She only needed one more chance to become a B-list artist.
After feeling happy, Han Qing asked Qi Xingchen, "Xing Xing, have you received the news?"
Qi Xingchen shook his head.
"If I can go, you can definitely go too. Just wait a little longer."
Unfortunately, Qi Xingchen didn't receive any news until nine o 'clock in the evening.
He didn't want to wait for his death. He directly called the agent of the original owner, Du Lanxin.
No one answered the first time. When the second call was automatically hung up, Du Lanxin's voice came from the phone. "Hurry up, don't delay my meal."
"… Sister Xin." Qi Xingchen went straight to the point. "I want to audition for 'Traveling Together'."
There was a long silence on the other end of the phone. "You're Qi Xingchen?"
"Then what are you dreaming about? Why don't you take a look at yourself first?"
After saying that, Du Lanxin seemed to feel that she had spoken too harshly. "Qi Xingchen, don't blame me for my harsh words, but you should know that Maimang TV's popular variety show isn't something that anyone can get on."
"I know." Qi Xingchen answered.
"Then I'll be honest with you. When I first saw you at your school, I liked your appearance.
I really wanted to train you well, but I didn't expect you to be so unruly. "
She paused. "If a newcomer wants to climb up, he must give something. For example, the party I took you to last year was full of rich ladies. Any one of them could give you resources, but you found an excuse to run away."
"You don't have the life of a prince, but you caused the prince's illness." Du Lanxin sneered. "With your background, the most valuable thing on your body is your face. Who are you pretending to be virtuous for?
In the end, aren't you the one who suffers? "
"And it's not a loss for a man to serve a rich lady. I feel sorry for you, so I didn't send you to the perverted gay. But you don't understand me at all."
"Sigh, my painstaking efforts are in vain."
Du Lanxin pretended to sigh. Qi Xingchen's eyes became darker and darker.
Compared to the original owner who was born in a rich family and was rebellious to the point that he had to work hard for himself, he grew up from a young age. In fact, he understood the "adult rules" that Du Lanxin spoke of.
"Sister Xin," Qi Xingchen tried to suppress his anger and tried to make his voice sound calm. "Being poor is not a crime, and it's not a reason to sell your body and soul.
If you want to succeed, you can't only take a shortcut like climbing into a bed. "
Listening to the teenager's words, Du Lanxin couldn't help but think of Qi Xingchen who called her after he escaped from the party last year. He called her "smelly bitch", "dead brothel keeper", and "hit by a car." She was very suspicious that this call was made by someone else.
She smacked her lips and ridiculed. "Then what other path do you have?"
"As long as you help me sign up," Qi Xingchen pretended to compromise. "I don't want a cent of the notice fee this year. I'll give it all to you. What do you think?"
It would be a waste if she didn't want the money. Besides, it was just sending the information to the producer's email. Du Lanxin's mind instantly became active and she agreed readily.
After the deal was made, Du Lanxin hung up the phone first.
Qi Xingchen opened the recording of the call and replayed it. After confirming that there were no omissions, he leaned back heavily on the chair.
The agent was too despicable and disgusting. He almost wanted to smash the phone.
But because of the opportunity in front of him, only Du Lanxin could give him, he endured until now.
He drank some water to calm himself down, opened the Weibo app, logged into the Weibo account that he registered the day before yesterday, and followed Bai Ye and Bai Ye's Weibo.
Then he very smoothly signed into the Weibo account, finished the task of reposting the comments and other popular topics, and posted his first Weibo post.
— — Yearning at Dusk: [I fell in love with a fairy who fell in the mortal world]
Five minutes later, the second post:
— — Yearning at Dusk: [I heard from a friend that my husband will be on this season's "Traveling Together". I'm looking forward to it.
After a while, a fan who was browsing the Weibo account replied:
— — Bai Ye on Me: [Friends from nowhere, get lost for spreading rumors.]
— — Prehistoric Girl: [Sisters' ID means "Lover's Resentment Distant Night, Yearning at Dusk"?
— — Your Rose: [Heh, a certain TV is trying to take advantage of my popularity again.
Please spend more money next time and buy more Internet Water Army with fans, okay?]
Looking at his "1 Follower, 0 Fans" data, he really ignored this.
He opened Taobao and used the original owner's bank card to buy 30,000 live fans very generously. Then he switched back to Weibo and searched for his name.
The first user that jumped out was his main account, verified as: Nuoya Entertainment Artist.
Qi Xingchen fell into deep thought. There were many side accounts that had not finished buying fans yet. What was wrong with the original owner? Why was it so messy?
He clicked on the main page again … There were only a few posts, and the last one was published half a year ago.
The original owner's Weibo had always been managed by his agent because he was afraid that newcomers would not be able to handle it well.
Now it seemed that ever since the original owner offended Du Lanxin, Du Lanxin had not helped him run his Weibo.
If his agent did not help him, he would do it himself.
Fortunately, the original owner's Weibo account was bound to the original owner's phone, so he could easily change the password.
Then he found a good angle, took a selfie, edited the Weibo account, and sent it.
— — Qi Xingchen: [Hey, Xing Guang, long time no see.]
For money, Du Lanxin was very efficient. He received the audition notice early in the morning and prepared at home for the whole morning.
Because they were only choosing from Nuoya, the variety show producer did not make a scene. He brought the director and a group of people to Nuoya.
At 14: 00, outside the meeting room on the top floor, more than a dozen small artists were practicing and reciting lines.
Han Qing pulled Qi Xingchen aside and nagged. Qi Xingchen listened to his words and stared at Zhou Yu's movements.
Zhou Yu hummed for a while and looked around. He walked to the window at the end of the corridor and took out his phone.
"Hey, Yuji, did you miss me?"
"Don't do your nails. It's not good for your health.
'Let's Travel Together' came to Nuoya to select people. I'm waiting for the audition. "
"Yeah, of course I want to be on the show.
I didn't go to Fashion Week this time. If I'm selected, I'll charter a plane and take you to the North Pole to see the aurora. "
"Brother Yu, you're here for the audition too?"
Before he could finish, a voice interrupted him.
When Zhou Yu heard who it was, he got angry. "Qi Xingchen, can't you see that I'm on the phone?"
"I'm sorry, Brother Yu. I can't see it from behind," Qi Xingchen said weakly. "It's my fault. Don't be angry."
After that, Qi Xingchen left quietly.
On the other end of the phone, Qi Yuji heard someone yell at her brother. She was so angry that she hung up the phone.
The Qi family was involved in a wide range of industries. They also invested in the entertainment industry and had a lot of connections.
Zhou Yu deliberately got close to Qi Yuji because he wanted resources.
He was dumbfounded. He called her a few more times, but it was all rejected.
The duck that had been in his mouth had flown away just like that. What was even more disgusting was that he didn't know why it had flown away. Zhou Yu cursed in his heart that women were f * cking problematic as he gritted his teeth and was shoved into the conference room by his agent.
Obviously, he didn't look happy when he came out.
The next person was Han Qing. Han Qing looked pretty good when she came out. She went up to Qi Xingchen and encouraged him, "Sex Xingchen, it's not difficult at all. Don't be nervous when you go in. Your idol is watching you from inside!"
"Yeah. After all, he's the main star this season," Han Qing blinked. "I wish you success in chasing your idol!"
It didn't matter if he succeeded or not. He just wanted to 'chase' into the show.
After the last few people were interviewed, the director's assistant came out and called his name.
Qi Xingchen carried his bag and walked in. The first row of the meeting room was almost full. Bai Ye and two middle-aged men were in the middle.
Bai Ye was wearing a dark jacket and jeans today. He didn't have any makeup on. However, after taking off his hat and mask, he was still dazzling.
He looked up at Qi Xingchen. Qi Xingchen inexplicably thought of the palm on his waist the day before yesterday. He lowered his head and rubbed the tip of his nose.
"Qi Xingchen, right?" The director was very satisfied with his appearance. He finally showed a pitiful smile on his face. "Relax. Show yourself."
The people in front of him showed nothing more than: Hello, director. My name is xxx. I'm good at singing, dancing, rap … The director didn't have any expectations for him.
"Okay," Qi Xingchen replied with the clear voice of a young man. He took off his backpack and took out a stack of bowls from it.
"Then I'll show you a bowl."
The director was speechless.
