“That’s right. Rourou has used her actions to show us that there’s no inside story to this show. The actors can question their dissatisfaction with the score standards. I don’t think we should blindly believe the comments of the four directors. Anyway, I think Rourou acted quite well. I’m super touched!”
“Rourou is too real. After watching the show, I like her even more. Rourou, charge forward boldly. We will always be your strongest support!”
The netizens were a little speechless. Why could Lu Rou’s actions be beautified and understood by her fans? However, they were already used to this situation. Anyway, Lu Rou’s fans were so stubborn and extreme like Lu Rou. They could not listen to any other opinions.
After Lu Rou’s group, the other groups quickly finished performing. The impromptu performance segment was over, and the first episode was coming to an end.
Among the 80 celebrity students, there were many who took advantage of the situation, but there were also many capable people who proved themselves. Some veteran actors also returned to the audience’s sight, causing the netizens to fall into waves of “memorial killings”.
At the same time, the first episode contributed more than 20 trending topics. This episode really became popular when it started broadcasting and attracted the attention of the entire Internet.
Among the many hot topics, Lu Zhen was still the most eye-catching.
She was the first celebrity student who got double S. During the live-stream, someone had given her three rockets in a row in a high-profile manner. In addition, the popularity of her relationship with her boyfriend outside the industry had yet to subside. These factors made her a hot topic on the Internet again.
Some video websites and forums started discussing Lu Zhen. Some predicted that Lu Zhen was the popular champion of this season’s Celebrity Acting Class. Some analyzed what new improvements Lu Zhen’s acting skills had made. Some even raised expectations: Would Lu Zhen win the recognition of the four directors in the future and become a celebrity student of the “Grand Slam”?
So far, Lu Zhen had already won the favor and admiration of the three directors. The netizens wondered curiously if Lu Zhen could win Wei Ji’s recognition.
Under this topic, there were also people who suggested that although Wei Ji’s score for Lu Zhen was not high, it was already the highest score he had given. His score for the other students was so low that it was unbearable to look at, so it seemed that giving Lu Zhen 80 points was considered friendly.
“I think that in Director Wei Ji’s heart, 80 points is a watershed. He gave Lu Zhen 80 points, which proves that he also acknowledges Lu Zhen’s acting skills. However, because his standards are higher than other directors, Lu Zhen is still a distance away from perfection in his heart. I really look forward to whether Lu Zhen will use her improvement in the future to let Director Wei Ji show his admiration for her.”
“Wow, now that you mention it, I’m looking forward to it too. I really want to see the arrogant Director Wei Ji being conquered!”
“I don’t think it’s possible. This is too difficult. It’s not easy to please a strange person like Wei Ji. I think Lu Zhen just has to do what she needs to do. Why does she have to win the approval of all the directors? I’ve liked Lu Zhen for many years. I know her personality. She won’t have such thoughts.”
Regardless of whether Lu Zhen had the intention of winning Wei Ji’s approval, many netizens still wanted to see Wei Ji admire a certain celebrity student. It was just like how mortals wanted to see a god walk down the altar and look forward to something difficult to happen becoming a reality.
After the recording of the first episode ended, Lu Zhen returned to the company. Ye Xuan had already completed all the handover and was no longer in charge of Guan Yun’s work. She had officially become Lu Zhen’s full-time manager.
In the afternoon, the two of them sat in Ye Xuan’s independent office and drank tea together. Ye Xuan leaned against the soft leather chair with a relaxed expression. Not having to be in charge of two artists at the same time made her work much less intense. Of course, she was under a lot of pressure because she had to nurture a superstar from scratch.
Guan Yun was already a mature international movie star. Be it breakthrough or malleability, there was not much for her to show off. Being Guan Yun’s manager was too easy for Ye Xuan. In other words, it was not challenging.
Ye Xuan had long passed the stage of pursuing money and benefits. Her current goal was a level higher than ordinary professional managers. She was more ambitious and had wild thoughts. She had actually been yearning for a challenging life for the past two years..
