Male teacher in Chinese entertainment industry: Teaching and nurturing students starting from Xiao T

The corridor on the 9th floor of the building.

Several people were standing outside conference room 901.

At first glance, the most memorable candidate is number 5, because this guy's eyes are even smaller than Li Ronghao's.

Lu Zhi Qiu scanned the area but didn't find any familiar faces.

That was to be expected.

It is said that the production team was so poor that they shared a single blower, and in order to save on costume costs, everyone wore sandals with their feet exposed during filming.

Needless to say, the pay was only a few dollars.

He accepted all of that.

I just didn't expect that arriving at the audition venue half an hour early would allow me to find a familiar face to teach me something.

As a result, I didn't even run into a nobody...

"Lu Zhi Qiu?"

A husky female voice interrupted his thoughts.

Lu Zhi Qiu turned her head and saw a woman wearing an assistant's badge, in her early thirties, with long, wavy hair.

"it's me."

"Number 6. There are two people ahead of you in line."

The woman tore off a number tag and gently patted it on his chest.

"I've scanned the information of the previous few people; you have a good chance today."

These words were quite touching, but Lu Zhi Qiu didn't dare to move an inch.

"Don't be nervous, little brother, my name is Sun Xiaozhen."

The woman smiled, took a half-step closer, and whispered in his ear, "Your reputation in the industry is reliable..."

Oh?

Lu Zhi Qiu suppressed the smile that was rising in his eyes.

"Sister Xiaozhen."

"Good little brother."

The two exchanged a knowing glance and immediately took out their phones to add each other on WeChat.

A short while later, the conference room door opened, and another person came out with their head hanging low.

"Number 4, get ready!" Sun Xiaozhen shouted.

Auditionee number 4 immediately walked in with his head held high and chest out.

The corridor returned to silence.

Sun Xiaozhen withdrew her gaze, leaned lazily against the wall, and ran her hand through her hair.

"A-Du probably told you about our team's situation. We're poor, but we're ambitious."

"The director's name is Lü Haozhe. He's about my age. He's a nice guy, but he has that artsy vibe and likes to show off."

"When you go in later, remember to address me correctly."

"How do you address me?" Lu Zhi Qiu asked curiously. "What's the catch?"

"certainly."

Sun Xiaozhen explained with a smile:

"In a film crew, the title 'director' is a specific one. It can only be used to refer to the person who sits behind the monitor and is the one who ultimately calls 'cut,' which is Director Lü."

"Other assistant directors and executive directors, even if their titles include director, should be addressed by their surname, such as Director Wang or Director Li."

"This rule isn't just for clarity, it's also to establish the director's authority. There can only be one leader in a group, understand?"

She talked for a long time, and her throat became dry, so she coughed lightly twice.

"I see, thank you for your guidance, Sister Xiaozhen."

Lu Zhi Qiu casually took out a cigarette case and handed one over:

"Sister, Runrun."

Sun Xiaozhen paused for a moment, then smiled with satisfaction, "You're quite clever. If you have any questions in the future, just message me on WeChat."

After saying that, he took the cigarettes and the pack and stuffed them into his pocket.

"Understood, thank you for your consideration, sister. Please also thank Brother Du for making the connection." Lu Zhi Qiu handed over the lighter as well.

"Okay, just keep that in mind." Sun Xiaozhen took it, twirled it between her fingers, accepted it, and turned to walk towards the conference room.

Just then, man number 4 walked out with a sigh and brushed past her.

"Number 5, you can come in now," Sun Xiaozhen called out and pushed the door open.

In the blink of an eye, only Lu Zhi Qiu remained in the corridor.

He leaned back against the wall, thought for a moment, and then opened Baidu to search:

"I've fallen for a girl with an artistic temperament, how should I pursue her?"

......

In an interview setting, being the last one to go in is the most stressful.

The examiner had been watching a bunch of incompetent students bickering all morning, and his patience had long since worn thin.

Those who went in before them all came out with their heads down in less than three minutes; ultimately, they just hadn't practiced enough.

To train her concentration for acting, Lu Zhi Qiu would memorize her lines while doing Kegel exercises.

Time passed by, second by second.

He put down his phone, stopped thinking about it, and calmed himself down to adjust his breathing.

Although "Go Princess Go" is set in an alternate history, its background has a magnificent and chaotic feel reminiscent of the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

The character he plays, Qi Sheng, is both a noble and well-mannered crown prince and a deeply affectionate and reserved man.

The direction is gradually becoming clearer.

Estimating that the time was about right, Lu Zhi Qiu silently counted in his mind:

"Activated, [The Dragon's Manifestation Emerges]."

In an instant, a noble aura, resembling jade and towering mountains, filled his body like a gentle stream.

He slowly opened his eyes.

His once warm and friendly gaze had now become calm and indifferent.

"Number 6, Lu Zhi Qiu, get ready to come in." Sun Xiaozhen pushed open the door and peeked out.

A door was left open.

Meanwhile, auditionee number 5 walked out with his head down, looking utterly dejected.

"Friend, how's it going inside?" Lu Zhi Qiu asked calmly, intending to use casual conversation to get a feel for the effects.

"How was it?" Number 5 gave a smile that looked more like a grimace.

"I shouldn't have listened to my family and chosen to major in performing arts. My dream is clearly music."

A glimmer of light struggled to appear in his small eyes:

"Do you even know what music is? If I could do it all over again, I'd choose..."

He paused mid-sentence, his gaze lingering on Lu Zhi Qiu's face for a few seconds, before muttering:

"That's strange... why do you look a little different standing here compared to when I was queuing earlier?"

Lu Zhi Qiu didn't respond, but instead patted his shoulder lightly, as if a ruler were patting a subject:

"Don't be discouraged. Open your eyes and look around. The sky is high and the land is vast. You may very well be able to fly to the top of that snow-capped mountain..."

"Wait a minute, I'm here with you for your audition." Number 5 was taken aback by his sudden imperial tone, her beady eyes widening in surprise.

"Are we that close?"

He leaned closer, almost touching Lu Zhi Qiu's face, and added:

"And look closely, I've opened my eyes as wide as they can."

After saying that, Number 5 snorted, walked past him, and strode away.

Lu Zhi Qiu chuckled lightly, then concealed all outward emotions and strode towards the conference room.

Enter the door.

The meeting room wasn't spacious, with three folding chairs lined up side by side facing the front.

Sitting in the middle was director Lü Haozhe, with long hair, black-rimmed glasses, and a pen twirling in his hand.

The other two are producer Yuan Feiyu and assistant director Wang Wenqiang.

Lu Zhi Qiu casually closed the door, walked to the center of the venue, and stood still.

His posture was upright, yet not stiff.

She possesses a refined and elegant demeanor, yet remains unconventional.

Anything produced by our system is guaranteed to be of high quality.

Sun Xiaozhen quickly walked to Lu Haozhe's side and slightly bowed: "Director, number 6, you've seen the information."

After the introduction, she stepped back to the wall and watched with her arms crossed.

But when his gaze fell on Lu Zhi Qiu again, his pupils involuntarily dilated for a moment.

The audition hasn't even started yet, could it be that this kid is already in character?

It was clearly the same person, but as he stood there quietly, he inexplicably exuded a sense of...nobility.

Director Lü Haozhe, who was looking down at the documents, looked up when he heard the sound.

The moment his gaze fell upon Lu Zhi Qiu, his fingers, which were twirling the pen, involuntarily paused.

In the file photo, he is just a handsome young man with a clean-cut demeanor.

But the one in front of me...

He didn't put on airs or make any exaggerated expressions; he just stood there normally.

Yet, the natural temperament he exuded inexplicably matched the image of the reserved and noble crown prince in his mind.

interesting.

But ultimately, it has to meet Producer Yuen's standards.

Lu Haozhe adjusted his glasses, not revealing any interest, and said calmly:

"Lu Zhi Qiu... right?"

"We've reviewed all the information. Could you briefly share your understanding of the character?"

......
