Li Xiao was a little surprised, but due to his trust in his senior, he obediently stopped talking with Xiao Du, nodded, put away his smile, closed his eyes, and began to gather his emotions.

He knew that Teacher Ouyang would definitely not let him perform this for no reason. Maybe this was an opportunity, so he had to take it seriously.

A minute later, he opened his eyes.

The carefree and sunny boy before has turned into a cold, calm, reserved and restrained boy who is as sharp as an ice knife.

When Ouyang Wenbo saw his expression, his pupils suddenly trembled. This was exactly the right fit for the supporting role in the drama he was currently filming!

He slapped his thigh and said, "Okay, very good. Xiao Du, go call Director Sun over and tell him that Mr. Xiao Yan, who's been giving him so much trouble, has delivered the goods himself."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Du quickly closed his mouth which was opened into an "O" shape by hand, responded, and ran to where Director Sun was resting.

Teacher Ouyang laughed and patted Li Xiao's shoulder. He kindly asked Li Xiao, "Xiao Li, I want to ask you for a favor. Can we have a screen test later?"

Li Xiao had imagined that this would be an opportunity, but he didn't expect the opportunity to be right in front of him!

But the timing is not right now!

He forced a smile awkwardly, "Teacher Ouyang, if it's a trial for the role in your current crew, then I'm afraid it won't work. As I just told you, I have a heavy role to play in the crew of the neighboring "The Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation", so I'm afraid..." I don't have time to compete with other roles.

His good professional ethics also made him not want to overlap with other projects, but he couldn't say these words directly to his seniors, but he still expressed his meaning.

"Don't worry, it's just a small role. As long as you catch Director Sun's eye, he will help you solve all problems." Ouyang Wenbo gave him a reassurance.

Director Sun ran over excitedly and was stunned at the sight of Li Xiao's outfit. After watching his audition, he decided on the spot.

Wow, it’s really like searching for a needle in a haystack, but it finally comes to me without any effort!

Teacher Ouyang's eyes are really too sharp. He found an actor who exceeded his expectations just by saying hello to the crew.

When Li Xiao was discussing the contract with Zhang Kexin, he still raised a point that worried him.

Because these two dramas are being filmed at almost the same time, and as one of the male leads in "The Devil's Way", he has a very heavy role to play every day, so his time for this drama will not be very free.

Director Sun patted his chest and assured him, "Don't worry, I will personally go to Director Chen and Director Zheng to discuss your filming time."

The two crews are adjacent to each other, so if you participate in two dramas at the same time, you don’t have to waste time on the road. Besides, Mr. Xiaoyan’s role is actually not that many. If everything goes well, it can be completed in three to five days.

Only then did Li Xiao sign this "part-time job" contract with confidence.

During the chat, Director Sun learned that he had been practicing his lines recently. Being good at this, Director Sun took the initiative to offer to give him on-site guidance. Li Xiao, who was in need of an on-site teacher, was happier than Li Xiao was when he successfully got the role of Xiao Yan Gongzi.

There was no hesitation in signing the role and I accepted a symbolic salary.

He originally wanted to participate in the performance for free, but was stopped by Teacher Ouyang, who said he was afraid of bad rumors spreading.

As for what the rumor is, even if Teacher Ouyang doesn't say it, Li Xiao, who has been in this circle for so long, knows it. It's nothing more than some rumors that he got the role by various improper means.

After all, this drama is a big IP, and the creative team is very strong. Not only are the male and female protagonists popular top actors, but all the supporting roles are played by heavyweight veteran actors like Senior Ouyang.

There are not too many people in the circle who are keeping an eye on the various characters in this drama.

This was unexpectedly given to him, a nobody with no background or resources, to get this supporting role, which was a male N role but had a very outstanding character, and he didn't receive any remuneration. It was indeed inappropriate.

After hearing the advice from others to eat a full meal, Li Xiao followed the advice of his senior and asked Director Sun to give him a small token of his salary.

When the "Series Improvement Class" started, Li Xiao brought two cans of high-quality honey and two boxes of top-quality puffed tamarind to Director Sun. "Director Sun, thank you for your guidance. This is a gift for becoming my apprentice. It's a small token of respect. I hope you won't despise it."

When Teacher Sun saw the outer packaging of the boxes he placed on the table, he immediately felt like he had found a treasure. "Don't mind, don't mind. These two brands are very difficult to find. Li Xiao, thank you for your trouble!"

How could Teacher Sun be disgusted? This gift touches his heart, okay?

As a director, he has to shout with a loudspeaker on the set every day. The weather is still very hot now, and he relies on soaking these in water to survive, otherwise his voice will be hoarse every day.

Li Xiao has a delicate heart and is very tactful and humble in dealing with people. No wonder Teacher Ouyang supports him so much and praises him like they are free.

According to Xiao Du, the two of them originally had no special relationship. Teacher Ouyang had only met Li Xiao once through an acquaintance and watched a few of his plays.

He has good looks, good acting skills, and good character. Most importantly, he is a good person, humble and polite. It is no wonder that Mr. Ouyang, who always values ​​talents, would try his best to promote such a good seedling.

Isn't he like this too? After just two or three interactions with him, I couldn't help but want to treat him wholeheartedly.

Li Xiao had no idea that he had "captured" the heart of a great director by simply giving Director Sun some small drinkable items. Although it cost a lot, it was insignificant compared to Director Sun's dedicated and patient teaching for several nights.

The reason for giving these two gifts was that he mentioned this to Qian Cencheng on the phone on the night he got the role. The girl searched the Internet for Mr. Sun's life and hobbies and found them on the spot.

In order to please him, the girl asked Uncle Qian to find someone, who took some effort to buy the item and had it sent to him urgently.

Qian Cencheng was immersed in the experiment until Li Xiao mentioned that he had taken on a small role in the crew next door. She slapped her head and remembered that it seemed to be true.

It seems that everything is happening according to the trajectory of the previous life, which is a cause for celebration.

In her previous life, this drama was already being preheated and prepared for release before she traveled through time. As for the specific broadcast effect, she didn't have time to see it in her previous life because she was game over three days before the show was broadcast. She was stuck at the emergency room and traveled through time here.

But I think the effect should be good. Li Xiao was very popular at that time, and the cast of this drama was also very strong. With the strong momentum of Li Xiao, it should have soared to the sky.

Many netizens were saying at the time that the drama had made a lot of money, and a minor supporting role in it suddenly became a top star, bringing unprecedented popularity to the upcoming drama.

When promoting the drama, the investors did more or less take advantage of Li Xiao's popularity.

Director Sun kept his word. After finishing work that day, he personally found Director Chen and Producer Yang and asked to borrow Li Xiao for a few days.

They were all from the same circle of directors and were very familiar with each other. Moreover, the two crews were now right next to each other, and even several filming sets were built jointly by the two crews. Li Xiao only needed to go there to play a small role in just a few days. Director Chen and others didn't even have time to find Li Xiao to inquire about the situation, and they directly agreed to Director Sun's request.

So, when Chen Cen returned to Xingcheng to record the show, Li Xiao also came to the crew next door to work part-time.

The directors of the two crews discussed and arranged his work time and place clearly.

During those days, sometimes he would play the lively, cheerful and carefree Ah Xian in this studio in the morning, and in the afternoon he would appear in the next studio and play the cold and detached Xiao Yan, who was extremely good at forbearance and extraordinary strategy.

Switching between two crews at the same time made Li Xiao feel a very strong sense of being torn apart.

Because the two roles he played were completely opposite characters, and now he had to switch back and forth frequently, Li Xiao, who was already quite comfortable playing Ah Xian, felt more stressed.

After finishing work and returning to the hotel in the evening, he would spend a lot of time and energy preparing for the scenes that the two crews would shoot the next day.

The immense pressure and lack of sleep made him wake up one morning, get ready and go to the crew to wait for his scene. After waiting for a long time, he was surprised to find that he had gone to the wrong crew!
