I became a girl group idol for my sister.

“I think you’ll get an external assignment soon too, after all, you’re much more capable than me.” Miyamoto said, then thought for a moment, “Besides, shouldn’t our first external assignment be when we went to the variety show episode of ‘Extremely Spicy Hell’? The three of us went together.”

“That was because Teacher Amagai used his connections to send us there, while for you, someone came to you specifically to ask for help. It’s different.” Mika Komatsu said, then shook her head. “And from what you’ve said, it’s obvious that Director Yamazaki noticed some of your strengths during the last single shoot, which is why he asked for your help.”

After saying that, she laughed: "But it's also good. It can also play a role in promoting our Stardust Girl, which can only benefit our next goal."

As she spoke, she stared at Miyamoto Sei, her expression gradually becoming serious, and her tone becoming solemn.

"So, Nana, you must do your best to show yourself!"

"Don't worry, I've already started looking into the actors' information. Almost all of them are acting for the first time, so I don't think I'll have any major problems there."

Miyamoto smiled, and upon hearing Miyamoto's words, Komatsu Mika also laughed.

……

Miyamoto went to the filming location the next day, which is the famous Ibaraki Prefecture, where many historical dramas are filmed.

The crew wasn't large; most of them were filming staff. Miyamoto Sei, led by Yamazaki Ryosuke, arrived in front of everyone.

"Let me introduce you all. This is Ms. Nana Miyamoto, who is here to film with you all today."

Ryosuke Yamazaki introduced Miyamoto Se to everyone, and Miyamoto Se had a smile on his face. As an idol, he was now very skilled at putting on a smile, not to mention that he himself quite liked to greet others with a smile.

"Hello everyone, I'm Nana Miyamoto. I'm very happy to participate in this filming. Please feel free to give me your guidance!"

A simple, ordinary self-introduction. Miyamoto tried her best not to make any cute gestures, making herself appear as an ordinary extra.

He wasn't the lead actor; he was just a minor character with only two or three minutes of screen time. He could leave as soon as filming was over, so there was no need for him to have much contact with these people.

"Hello."

"first meet."

The others exchanged casual greetings and then dispersed without much interaction. Miyamoto looked at this scene and then at Yamazaki Ryosuke, only to see Yamazaki Ryosuke with a somewhat awkward smile.

Miyamoto suddenly felt sorry for the director, who had a group of people who didn't really take him seriously.

Information about these people flashed through his mind.

The man with the indifferent expression, looking at his phone, is named Ao Saki. He's an idol under JC Staff, but even within JC Staff, he's only considered second-rate. It's likely that his manager pulled a lot of strings to get him sent here as the lead in the movie.

After all, JC Staff should be most interested in Miya, the next generation of idols.

The only female character is named Momohara Miko, a rare surname and given name. She is an artist from a company called Hondasha and is a newcomer. I heard that in addition to this movie, she also has her own TV series in preparation, in which she plays the female lead.

As for the man who was smiling and talking to Momohara Miko, he had a slightly slender figure and looked quite sunny. If you don't count the fact that he left after saying hello, he was a pretty sunny person.

His name is Honmiya Kei, and he is in the same company as Momohara Miko. They were obviously launched together for their debut, but Momohara Miko was the main focus of the promotion. After all, in this drama, Momohara Miko is the female lead, while he is just the second male lead.

There was originally another person, but that person has already left. Her name was Noguri Kaori, and she was the culprit who caused Yamazaki Ryosuke to come looking for Miyamoto Sei.

"This is ridiculous! If they hadn't invested so much money, I wouldn't have wanted to film this!" Yamazaki Ryosuke muttered to himself.

Miyamoto heard everything clearly and smiled, "Good luck, Mr. Yamazaki."

"Don't worry, I'll film your scene well. I also want to leave a record of it, so that people who see it will understand that it's not that I can't film it well, but that other reasons caused problems with the whole thing!" Yamazaki Ryosuke said, "I believe in you! Miyamoto-san."

As Yamazaki Ryosuke spoke, he became somewhat puzzled again.

"By the way, why did I need to prepare a certificate for film shooting observation and learning, instead of just an actor's certificate?"

"It's nothing. I don't want people to know I'm acting. I just want to treat it as learning about filmmaking on set," Miyamoto replied casually.

Because filming would make time even tighter, Miyamoto asked Yamazaki Ryosuke to help him get a certificate that could be used to request leave.

The excuse was something like being an intern on a movie set and needing to ask for leave. Miyamoto Sei still remembers the teacher's expression when he saw the certificate.

Looking on in disbelief, a high school student had inexplicably started learning on a movie set, and clearly with the director's permission.

Although it was only a few days, it was enough for Miyamoto Sei to avoid being completely exhausted from being so busy.

"Please wait a while. Ms. Hanayagi will arrive this afternoon. She had something to do yesterday and went back to Kyoto temporarily. I will introduce you to her when she arrives."

As he spoke, Yamazaki Ryosuke walked to the side and began directing the staff.

Miyamoto smiled and nodded at the staff here. He remembered some of them; he had met them when they filmed the music video for his single last time.

Seeing Miyamoto nod at them, the others responded in kind.

"Looking at Nana makes me feel healed. This period of filming has been a real headache. Filming those graduate students last time was much easier."

Miyamoto Sei heard the quiet murmurs from someone clearly.

This made Miyamoto even more curious. How exactly did these guys act to make the staff so exhausted?

Meanwhile, on the other side, the main actors also had their own curiosity and opinions about the arrival of the newcomers.

"Miyamoto Nana, never heard of her. Is she a minor actress from some agency?" Momohara Miko looked curiously at Miyamoto Sei, who was standing with Yamazaki Ryosuke and seemed to be saying something. "She was brought in to make up the numbers because of Noguri Kaori's departure. I would say she was lucky?"

"They were really lucky. Even though it was only a two or three-minute scene, it was a rare opportunity for these young actors. I heard that many people would even give up their performance fees to get a chance to act."

Ben Gongqi smiled, but his expression and words didn't quite match.

“Unlike us, who all have our own agencies recommending us, and we are also investors, so we are different from them.”

“Well, after all, our company is quite large.” Momohara Miko turned her gaze away from Miyamoto Se. “I don’t think there’s anything special about her. I think she won’t be able to seize this opportunity. It’s a pity for all the effort she put in to get it.”

"To make a sacrifice? You mean she might..."

As he spoke, Kei Motomiya glanced at Miyamoto Sei, who was casually looking around and even greeting the staff. Looking at her slender figure and beautiful appearance, an idea popped into his head.

"I seem to know these people quite well, and it looks like we've worked together before. If that's the case, I guess I got in through the director's connections."

"It's perfectly normal to get acting opportunities by sleeping with directors; there's no need to ridicule it."

Momohara Miko spoke softly, her expression natural, though her eyes were slightly narrowed and the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, giving her the air of a confident and triumphant king.

Then, she stepped forward and came to stand in front of Miyamoto Sei.

"Miss Miyamoto, would you like me to show you around?"

Seeing this, Motomiya Kei was slightly taken aback. He didn't expect that Momohara Miko, who had previously ignored Miyamoto Se like herself, would take the initiative to go up and talk to her.

This woman's smile looks a bit fake; if her fans saw it, they'd say she wasn't putting in the effort.

Miyamoto looked at the smile on the woman's face and secretly commented on it.

At the same time, I also became a little curious. This girl was willing to come up to me with a fake smile. What did she want to do?

If I were the lead actress, it would be understandable, but I'm just someone I brought in to make up the numbers, and she's the one I need to curry favor with, since she's the female lead. Isn't the order of things reversed?

"Wouldn't that take up too much of Ms. Momohara's time? Acting must be very tiring, after all, you have to memorize lines, constantly learn the corresponding actions for the lines, and figure out the character's thoughts and feelings, etc."

Miyamoto, intending to politely decline, pointed out rather tactfully that the other person should be studying instead of coming to him.

"Acting is tiring, but I think it's also something I have to do to take the newcomers around."

Momohara Miko spoke with a smile, but the smile was more forced than before, especially when Miyamoto Sei finished speaking, her face almost stiffened for a moment.

Seeing the changes in her expression, Miyamoto began to doubt whether the other person had actually looked at the script or something. Otherwise, her expression at the time made it seem like Miyamoto was right.

They don't memorize lines or try to understand the character's thoughts; they simply rely on various hints or even teleprompters to act.

If it were really filmed like that, then it wouldn't be much different from those guys in my past life who just shouted "1234" instead of reciting their lines.

Thinking about this, Miyamoto suddenly understood why Yamazaki Ryosuke was having such a headache.

They have little acting skill, but some are big stars. That's bad enough, but everyone also has their own ulterior motives. All these things combined make it incredibly frustrating.

However, since the other party had already said such things, Miyamoto knew that it wouldn't be good to refuse, so he smiled and nodded.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Ms. Momohara."

There was no sign of gratitude or excitement; it was just a simple response.

"Great! Let's go! I'm so happy to have a girl to chat with!"

Momohara Miko said with a smile, leading the way, while Miyamoto Se followed behind, secretly observing the expressions of the other two as they walked.

The male protagonist, Ao Saki, was operating his phone screen, while Kei Motomiya looked somewhat hesitant, seemingly considering whether to join forces with Miyamoto Sei to beat up the group.

Miyamoto began to speculate whether this guy named Motomiya Kei was interested in Momohara Miko, or whether he wanted to get along with her and curry favor because they both belonged to the same agency.

Regardless of the reason, after hesitating for about ten seconds, Motomiya Kei caught up and tried his best to greet Miyamoto Sei naturally.

"Miss Miyamoto, hello! I am Honmiya Kei, and I'm here to play the second male lead!"

"Hello."

Miyamoto gave a brief response and then said nothing more.

His passive attitude, even with a smile on his face, left Ben Gongqi momentarily speechless.

Momohara Miko didn't say anything either.

In the distance, watching this scene, Ao Saki typed the last line of text.

Sometimes you get a job through hard work, but there are always some people who seem to get opportunities easily through other means. These thoughts suddenly came to mind because of certain events.

Chapter Twenty was discovered [Two-in-One]

Miyamoto was holding the script. Besides reading the script, he also needed to watch the performances of other people. After all, only by observing the performances of others could he gain a general understanding of the place.
