Huayu is here for you

September 21st was a beautiful, sunny day, and Lin Yu, who had rested at home all day, stood once again at the entrance of the Beijing Film Academy…

"Sigh! The air is thick with youthful energy!" Lin Yu sighed, looking at the people coming and going through the gate.

Just as Lin Yu had composed himself and was about to step through the gate, he suddenly noticed small groups of people not far from the school gate, discussing something heatedly.

Filled with curiosity, Lin Yu deliberately walked slowly past them.

"Hey! Wasn't that Liu Yifei who just walked by? Wow! She's so pretty!"

"Absolutely! Not only is she beautiful, but she also has a lot of resources. I heard that she just finished playing the second female lead in one drama and is already preparing to join another production. I heard it's the cast of 'Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils' with the big beard!"

"Sigh... How come there's such a huge gap between people? I've only just started out as an extra, while others are already getting role after role."

"Who says otherwise! But have you heard about the other person? Lin Yu, the rising star director from our academy. I heard he's already made a movie before he even entered the school, and it almost grossed tens of millions at the box office."

"I heard about it, I even went to see it, I almost laughed myself to death! It's amazing, they're the same age as me, and they're already famous directors."

"..."

As Lin Yu listened to the gossip of these small groups, a slight smile crept onto his lips.

"Wow, Liu Yifei is amazing! She actually came to the academy today. She must be here to extend her vacation! Hmm, I need to find a chance to see just how beautiful she was in her youth!"

To satisfy his curiosity from his past life, Lin Yu strode toward the office of the acting department... uh, I mean the directing department professors' offices, since the directing department professors' offices weren't far from the acting department professors' offices.

"It shouldn't be too far!" Lin Yu thought to himself.

As Lin Yu passed by the crowd, no one paid him any attention, completely unaware that one of the main figures they were discussing had just walked past them.

The other protagonist they were discussing, Liu Yifei, was incredibly popular in the first few years of her career. One hit TV series after another, such as "The Story of a Noble Family," "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils," "Chinese Paladin," and "The Return of the Condor Heroes," kept her fame high for more than a decade, making countless female stars envious.

Unfortunately, there is only one Miss Liu. Even though she has been "bundled up" with other actresses, Lin Yu has never seen another actress reach the same level as Miss Liu. It can only be said that she has been imitated but never surpassed!

He may have had fewer classes and his acting skills may have been lacking, but his face can make up for everything, right?

"Thank you, teacher. I'll be going now."

When Lin Yu arrived at the door of the acting department's tutor's office, he heard this soft, childlike voice coming from the doorway.

A moment later, Lin Yu saw a beautiful figure walk out of the door, but then Lin Yu's face darkened!

Because he saw someone who should be here but shouldn't be here—Liu Xiaoli!

"Oh dear! What a disaster! I was hoping to take a few more glances to feast my eyes, but how can I look any longer? I might get slapped by Aunt Liu for being a lecher!"

Even a fleeting glance as he passed by stirred a few small waves in Lin Yu's heart. Miss Liu at this age was truly stunning, breathtakingly beautiful. He really didn't know how she grew up to be like that.

Then he glanced at Liu's mother... Hmm, at this moment Lin Yu completely understood, this is how she should look, otherwise it would be a disservice to the Liu family's genes!

However, Lin Yu immediately thought of the Liu girl and her mother he had seen in the camera footage in his previous life, and couldn't help but blurt out a classic Chinese phrase: "Damn, this camera even has a sealing effect? ​​The difference is a bit too much!"

In any case, they have no connection with Lin Yu now, so... Liu's mother and Miss Liu just passed by Lin Yu like ordinary people.

Standing at the end of the corridor, Lin Yu looked at the wall in front of him and touched his nose guiltily before turning around and heading towards the directing department. As long as no one saw him, Lin Yu wouldn't feel embarrassed!

"Another new script?"

"Um!"

"Do we need the school's help this time?"

"Hehe...no need this time, I came back just to ask for a day off," Lin Yu said somewhat embarrassedly.

"...Alright, but please try to include our own school's actors as much as possible. Don't be like your seniors who all hired outsiders."

"Okay! I've got it."

"Your leave is approved. Remember to come back and cancel it when you're done. Your script..."

"Here you go! I brought you a copy. Well, teacher... if there's nothing else, I'll be going now." Lin Yu handed over the script before Su Mu could finish speaking.

Su Mu shook his head as he looked at the script Lin Yu had shoved into his hand and Lin Yu's hurried departure. Then he looked at the pile of resumes on Lin Yu's desk.

"I was thinking of recommending two more to this kid, humph! He doesn't appreciate my kindness!" Su Mu, who was staring at the resumes on the table, suddenly laughed after a while. "This brat! Hehehe... I wonder if he'll go for graduate school. If he does, I'll definitely have to give him a good lesson."

As Lin Yu left the directing department, he wiped the sweat from his brow: "Luckily I left quickly, otherwise I probably would have had to pick another one."

While picking one isn't necessarily a bad thing, it's a bit scary that the first one is actually the owner of a cake shop. I really don't know why the directing professor keeps putting acting students on his desk.

Lin Yu looked at the movie "Lost in Thailand" in his hand and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"If Liu Yifei were to play the mistress in the movie, wouldn't the audience's feelings be even stronger?"

Thinking about this, Lin Yu really had the urge to ask the academy for Miss Liu's contact information. However, the image of Liu's mother suddenly appeared in his mind, which interrupted Lin Yu's impulse. After thinking about it carefully, he gave up the idea, afraid of being beaten to death!

So let's think about actors for other roles, but... why do I suddenly feel a sense of regret?

"Sigh! I should have looked at the cake shop owner's resume; she'd be perfect for the role! I was too hasty, too young! Oh well! I should find Grey Wolf... uh, no, Li Chenggong first!" Lin Yu sighed softly.

Lin Yu then took out half a brick from his pocket, checked his communication records, found his target, and dialed the number directly.

"Hey! Brother Zheng, it's me."

"Yes! The male lead!"

"Sister Tao Hong is coming to make a cameo appearance? No problem! I'd love to!"

"Okay! It's settled then, goodbye!"

Get it!

Lin Yu, who was feeling slightly happy, was about to hail a taxi to find his next target when he suddenly remembered something. He took out a bank card from his pocket and examined it carefully, and the smile on his face slowly froze.

"I haven't even found any investors yet! How the hell am I supposed to find actors?!"
