Male teacher in Chinese entertainment industry: Teaching and nurturing students starting from Xiao T
Chapter 3: If the Zhang family doesn't arrive at 2:30 AM, something good is sure to happen.
The following afternoon.
The plane landed in Hangzhou.
Lu Zhi Qiu got into the car arranged by his cousin and went to settle into his temporary accommodation.
The drinking session that night was scheduled at a bar called "Dark Currents".
The investment has already been finalized.
So tonight, it's not business-related, it's sports-related.
It's basically the producer taking the lead, letting the people the investors want to support get to know the director and main actors in advance.
This will facilitate future character recommendations.
On the way to my accommodation.
Lu Zhi Qiu was resting with his eyes closed when his phone suddenly vibrated.
News from my cousin:
"I've packed a few outfits for you in your suitcase in the room. Pick one you like and change into it."
"Start at nine o'clock, take a taxi, don't take the bus."
Lu Zhi Qiu smiled, "That's very thoughtful."
I remember last year when my cousin's second child had his one-month celebration, my mom generously gave him a gift of ten (a traditional Chinese gift symbolizing perfect happiness).
Today, Stiepunk's theory has largely been put into practice.
He quickly replied, "Okay, Uncle, I'll be there on time."
......
At 8:40 p.m., Lu Zhi Qiu stood at the entrance of "Dark Current".
The storefront is narrow.
No neon lights, no flashing lights, it looks like a "2:30 AM club".
Pushing open the door, you'll find a narrow corridor that can only accommodate one person at a time.
He stepped into the corridor.
The door behind me closed, instantly silencing the sounds of traffic and people outside.
At first, it was extremely narrow, barely wide enough for one person to pass through. After walking several dozen steps, he pushed open the door and entered.
The space suddenly opened up.
The lighting was dim and ambiguous, and the bass of jazz music gently pounded against my chest.
His gaze swept inside.
In the crowd: laughter was fragmented, clinking glasses were crisp, and the slits in the waitresses' cheongsams were embarrassing.
"Xiao Qiu, over here!"
My cousin waved from a booth on the inside, next to a woman in a cheongsam who was helping him pour drinks.
Shift your gaze to the right.
It was a man I didn't recognize, around forty or fifty years old, wearing a pair of pretentious sunglasses.
He was flanked by two open-minded female companions, chatting and laughing.
The person in the main seat was a well-maintained middle-aged woman, and the scene was even more lively, with three models dressed in tight-fitting clothes surrounding her.
The difference between one, two, and three makes their positions obvious.
There are exceptions,
For example, Jing Tian, who was leaning against the wall, had much more space around her.
She didn't seem to like these social occasions, only nodding occasionally and giving a polite, faint smile.
As Lu Zhi Qiu was secretly observing, he heard footsteps behind him.
Several young people quickly walked past him, headed straight for the booth, greeted everyone familiarly, and then went to play in the next booth.
As they passed each other, he noticed one of them.
Wearing a white shirt, with handsome features, Ren Jialun is a rising star recently promoted by Huanrui.
He was also the male lead whom the investors had intentionally chosen beforehand.
But it's said that the role this guy originally wanted to play was actually the second male lead, Prince Jianning.
The character is carefree and unrestrained in the early stages, but later becomes decadent and insane after his lover is humiliated.
The characters have a large contrast, creating great dramatic tension.
He wrote tens of thousands of words of character biography for this role, even categorizing drunkenness into three, five, and seven parts drunk, and even approached a director to prepare for a real drinking performance.
Lu Zhi Qiu admired him: With this kind of perseverance, he would succeed at anything.
I pulled myself back to reality.
Lu Zhi Qiu quickened his pace and walked to the booth, his face showing a youthful innocence befitting his age.
"Come here, Xiao Qiu."
My cousin Yin Tao introduced us.
"This is Producer Chung, Director Liu, and Teacher Jing Tian."
As he spoke, he patted the leg of the woman in the cheongsam next to him.
The woman understood and silently withdrew.
Lu Zhi Qiu greeted everyone politely and sat down next to his cousin.
"Xiao Qiu," producer Zhong Junyan said with a friendly smile, "you just graduated, right?"
It seems my cousin had given me advance notice.
Lu Zhi Qiu nodded, her tone humble, "Yes, I just graduated and I'm still adjusting."
In such situations, saying too much is bound to lead to mistakes.
He didn't try to show off; instead, he displayed a composure beyond his years.
"Look how energetic it is!"
Zhong Junyan gestured with her chin towards director Liu Guonan, then looked at Lu Zhiqi.
"If you like this industry, you can come over with your cousin to visit and have a look when the film crew starts shooting in a while."
"Thank you, Producer Chung, for giving me this opportunity."
Lu Zhi Qiu's attitude was sincere, "I will definitely try to learn more when I have the chance."
"Not bad, young man." Zhong Junyan nodded in satisfaction and gave Yin Tao a look.
She maintained a friendly demeanor throughout, giving Yin Tao ample face.
Uncle Yin Tao smiled, but inwardly he was wondering about his nephew's sudden enlightenment.
Around 2 a.m. last night, my older sister suddenly messaged me, saying that he had called home on his own initiative.
It seems the brat has finally grown up.
......
After several more rounds of pleasantries, it was getting late.
Zhong Junyan seemed to be hungry, so she got up and led three male models out for a late-night snack.
The atmosphere became noticeably more relaxed after the producer left.
As Liu Guonan drank his wine, he recounted his past in Dunhuang to those present.
There are so many murals!
Lu Zhi Qiu occasionally chimed in with a few words because of his cousin's relationship, but most of the time he just listened quietly.
I don't know when,
He noticed a gaze that seemed to be falling on him, albeit subtly.
But each time I looked in the direction I felt, I only saw Jing Tian elegantly sipping her wine.
It took about ten minutes to finish one glass, and the amount of wine didn't seem to decrease much.
Perhaps it's true that you look 10 pounds heavier on camera. The woman in front of us has exquisite makeup, and a black strapless dress accentuates her beautiful curves. She looks much slimmer than she does on screen.
Paired with that striking pale skin, she exudes a faint sense of aloofness when she's not smiling.
To see her, it's best to choose a sunny afternoon. Half an hour beforehand, bathe, burn incense, change clothes, and tie your hair...
Then, remember to bring an ink line and a peach wood sword.
"Don't be so reserved."
His cousin Yin Tao's voice interrupted his thoughts; it was powerful, like a bull's.
"A lot of young people have come from Huanrui's side too. Go and get to know them; you'll be colleagues in the future."
"Okay," Lu Zhi Qiu replied.
As soon as he finished speaking, the woman in the cheongsam silently picked up the wine bottle, poured him a third of a glass, and gently pushed it to his side.
A top salesperson is a top salesperson wherever they go.
He glanced at his cousin, received a tacit approval, then picked up his wine glass, stood up, and toasted him in turn.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, this wine cannot escape its taste.
He could only tilt his head back again and again, swallowing the spicy liquid.
The gaze that fell upon him seemed to become clearer as he moved.
When he finally walked up to Jing Tian with his wine glass in hand, the effects of the alcohol were already starting to rise.
"Teacher Jing, I salute..."
"No rush." A sweet and gentle voice sounded from the side.
"Just call me 'older sister'."
Jing Tian raised her hand and gently touched his cup with the rim of her own.
"Sit down." She patted the empty seat next to her. "If you drink any more, you might be walking out of here tonight."
Finally, I met a kind-hearted person.
Lu Zhi Qiu readily agreed and sat down, letting out a sigh of relief.
"To be honest, if I drink a few more glasses, I'm afraid I'll have to go to the toilet and gag my throat."
This is the truth.
He feared cirrhosis in his previous life, so he rarely drank alcohol after the age of thirty.
"Quite honest," Jing Tian chuckled, leaning back lazily on the sofa.
"Director Yin, is that you...?"
"I am his nephew," Lu Zhiqi said calmly.
"I see..." Jing Tian looked him over with interest.
"What's your name?"
"The road knows autumn; people walk on the road; a single leaf tells of autumn."
"Lu...zhi...qiu..." Jing Tian repeated slowly, her eyelashes drooping slightly, as if she were recalling something.
moment,
She suddenly exclaimed "Ah!" and leaned forward slightly.
"I remember now. Aren't you... that handsome young man from the Shanghai Theatre Academy, the one who played the lifebuoy?"
"..."
Damn it, the internet being too developed isn't necessarily a good thing.
Lu Zhi Qiu remained silent and took a sip of wine.
"It seems so." Jing Tian noticed his lips stiffen instantly, and her smile widened.
"I heard it from a junior at the Shanghai Theatre Academy as an amusing anecdote."
"She also said that you used to skip classes all the time in school to work part-time teaching children to draw, and their dormmates all called you..."
She tilted her head, as if thinking, "What's it called again? 0 or 1...?"
"Dormitory 501, male dormitory of Shanghai Theatre Academy, is a reincarnation of Van Gogh."
As Lu Zhi Qiu spoke, he felt inexplicably ashamed.
"Yes, that's it!"
Jing Tian finally couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"You've had quite a unique life. Anything else interesting you've experienced? Tell us more!"
Want to hear me... talk about something?
This triggered the underlying code of a teacher with ten years of experience.
This seems like a good opportunity to impart knowledge.
Lu Zhi Qiu, with the passive tone of an inspirational teacher guiding a student, asked:
"Sister Tian, do you know why Van Gogh cut off his own ear?"
Jing Tian blinked; she seemed to recall hearing her teacher mention it back in school.
She suddenly became interested.
People tend to subconsciously enjoy moments that allow them to demonstrate that they are not ignorant or incompetent.
"Hmm...it seems to be because of a woman?" she asked tentatively.
"Sister Tian is indeed very knowledgeable."
Lu Zhi Qiu generously offered praise, then smoothly led the conversation downwards.
"To be precise, it is related to an extremely passionate yet painful love affair in his life."
"His love for that girl was no less than..."
He thought for a moment and found a metaphor that would instantly resonate with the other person.
"No less than the first love everyone experiences in the summer of their seventeenth year..."
When the teacher tells extracurricular love stories in class, the class becomes 10086 more engaging.
Next,
He fabricated and embellished a whole section on "19th Century European Impressionist and Post-Impressionist Art" into Jing Tian's understanding.
Half an hour later.
"I see..." Jing Tian listened intently, and before she knew it, she had finished the last bit of wine in her glass.
"It's surprising that this great painter has such an unknown side."
Her eyes flickered and landed on Lu Zhi Qiu's face as she teased him:
"You have quite a wide range of knowledge, Professor Lu?"
Lu Zhi Qiu's mouth was dry from talking, so he took a sip of wine.
[Detected that the host taught Jing Tian "theoretical" knowledge: Love-obsessed people never have a good ending]
[Received one skill draw reward. Draw now?]
It became.
A thought flashed through his mind, "Draw."
[Draw successful! Skill acquired: Dragon's Manifestation.]
[Effect: During use, you will gain an aura comparable to that of an early-career emperor of ancient times. The effect becomes more pronounced as your acting skills improve.]
He smiled.
This skill...
I am very satisfied.
