Reborn in the Hong Kong entertainment industry in the 1980s

The Baogang TV station's artist training class started on the 1st, and the training location is the film and television city.

The film studio is not far from the sea. Hu Xiaoxiao stood upstairs, resting her elbows on the windowsill, gazing at a corner of the sea view.

A gentle sea breeze blew, lifting the stray hairs from her forehead. Sunlight shone on her, making her shiny black hair and fair skin appear as if they were coated with a halo.

She was wearing a sleeveless white shirt tucked into blue fitted denim shorts, white sneakers, and her long hair was casually tied in a ponytail.

"Xiaoxiao!" Zhu Wanwen and Athena arrived and called out to her.

Hu Xiaoxiao turned around and saw Athena wearing a long white dress, her long hair flowing smoothly down her back. Zhu Wanwen, on the other hand, was wearing a red tracksuit and carrying a large canvas bag, and was asking Hu Xiaoxiao, "Why are you here so early?"

"We thought we'd stop by the film studio while we were at it." Hu Xiaoxiao took out a bag of cookies from her bag and asked them, "Have you had breakfast yet?"

Athena took a cookie and said, "I didn't eat it. I got up too late and was afraid of being late, so I didn't have time to eat breakfast."

"I've already eaten." Zhu Wanwen asked, "Xiaoxiao, why do you always have food in your bag?"

"Delicious." There are so many delicious things to eat, and she loves to try new things, so there's always more food than she can eat.

Athena also said, "The things Xiaoxiao brought are all delicious. I wonder where you found them."

“Every time I go to the mall or go shopping, I buy food to try. After eating a lot, I know what tastes good,” Hu Xiaoxiao said.

Zhu Wanwen looked at Hu Xiaoxiao's figure with envy, "You have such a good physique, you can eat as much as you want and not gain weight."

The three of them stood by the window, enjoying the sea breeze and chatting.

In the distance is the sea view, and closer by are the camera studio and various shooting locations.

The three looked toward an open-air filming location, which had been rented by a film company to shoot a movie. They were busy filming action scenes, and from their position, they could see a sliver of it.

The three women were engrossed in what they were looking at when someone approached them, looked in the same direction, and asked, "What are you three beautiful Miss Hong Kongs looking at?"

The three women turned around at the same time and saw a handsome young man standing behind Zhu Wanwen.

Zhu Wanwen moved away from Athena and asked, "Who are you?"

"Let me introduce you three beautiful Miss Hong Kong contestants. I am your new classmate, Chang Wanming. It's a pleasure to meet you." Chang Wanming extended his hand, first looking at Zhu Wanwen.

Although Zhu Wanwen felt it was impolite for the man to extend his hand first, she still shook hands politely and said, "Nice to meet you."

Chang Wanming reached out to Athena again, but Athena ignored him, turned her head, looked at the camera studio, and said to Hu Xiaoxiao, "After class, let's go for a walk. I've never seen how movies are made before."

"It's similar to filming a TV show, isn't it?" Hu Xiaoxiao glanced at the classroom door; quite a few people had already arrived. She pulled the two girls aside and went into the classroom to find seats.

This year's acting training class recruited fifty people, both men and women, all of whom were good-looking young people.

Although there are quite a few applicants, only those who pass the graduation exam will be hired by the TV station.

There were fifty students who didn't know each other, but all of them knew the three recent Miss Hong Kong winners.

Many people wanted to come over and say hello, but seeing that Chang Wanming had been rebuffed, they all gave up the idea.

The three girls found three seats together and sat down. After the other students were seated, the teacher came in.

After the teacher gave an opening speech, he began taking attendance and distributing training materials.

Much of the training content was taught to Hu Xiaoxiao by Teacher Xia Qing, who was also one of the trainers.

But Hu Xiaoxiao still studied very diligently. When she learned something again, she gained new insights. In particular, different teachers' courses would lead her to new discoveries and teach her new knowledge.

Hu Xiaoxiao also took a pen and notebook and joined Zhu Wanwen in writing notes.

Seeing this, Athena also took out a pen and wrote in her notebook, studying what she knew again.

A group of classmates of similar age, listening to the teacher's lectures together, taking notes together, and discussing knowledge together—this was an experience Hu Xiaoxiao had never had before. Every day was very fulfilling for her.

After school, the three of them would go to visit various film sets together. Some film sets didn't like outsiders visiting, while others didn't object as long as they weren't disturbed.

Although Baogang is a small place, its film and television industry is very developed, producing about 100 films every year, and this number is increasing every year.

Besides Baogang TV renting space in the film and television city for filming, its rival Baozhu TV also rents space here for filming. Therefore, the place is very lively every day, with film crews starting work every day.

Everywhere you look, you see familiar faces that often appear on TV and in movies. There are countless beautiful women and handsome men, as if all the good-looking people in Hong Kong have gathered here.

The three women learned that Director Wang Zhan also had a drama in production and wanted to go and see how a famous director's films were made. Unfortunately, when they arrived, they found that Director Wang's film set was closed off and they weren't allowed to go in.

"Shall we go visit Xinghe on set?" Athena suggested. "Xinghe is currently filming a workplace drama; it just started filming not long ago."

Hu Xiaoxiao had never seen a workplace drama set before, so she immediately seconded the idea, and Zhu Wanwen had no objections either.

In the drama, Lu Xinghe wore a well-tailored suit, leather shoes, and a meticulously combed slicked-back hairstyle, which not only made him look more handsome but also gave him a sharp and elite vibe.

The three women couldn't help but let out a soft "wow" when they saw it.

Lu Xinghe heard this, and after finishing filming, he walked over with a smile and asked, "Are you guys out of school?"

Zhu Wanwen teased him, "How did you know we were out of school and not finished with work?"

Lu Xinghe laughed and said, "Many people in the company know that the three of you went to the training course."

Hu Xiaoxiao was a little surprised, "Is the company paying this much attention to the three of us?"

With so many Miss Hong Kong winners and A-list and B-list artists in the company, she thought everyone was used to them.

"Silly girl." Zhu Wanwen couldn't help but laugh. Hu Xiaoxiao was usually very clever and quick-witted, but sometimes she was quite absent-minded. She pulled Hu Xiaoxiao along and said to Lu Xinghe, "I made an appointment with Xiaoxiao to go shopping, so we're leaving first."

Lu Xinghe stopped them and said, "Mingxu finished filming today. I made plans with him to have a big meal. Why don't you all come together?"

"Oh right! Today is the day Mingxu wraps up filming!" Hu Xiaoxiao was so focused on class that she forgot that Mingxu was wrapping up filming in the next day or two, and that the entire series of "The Grandmaster" was also coming to an end.

So, after Lu Xinghe finished work, he took them to the set of "The Grandmaster".

Mingxu had just finished filming his scene, and before even changing out of his costume, he threw his head back and howled, like a wild beast released from its cage seeing freedom.
