Chapter 131: Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong came to the set to play small roles

Chapter 131 Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong came to the set to play small roles

During the winter vacation, Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong, led by Tao Jing, went to sign a direct promotion agreement with the No. 1 Middle School.

Tao Jing told Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong that it happened to be a holiday now, and she wanted to take them to play in the city for a few more days before going back.

Pei Tiantian was very happy to hear this.

Take this opportunity to get more familiar with the city's environment, otherwise you won't even know how to get there when you come to study in the future.

When they arrived at No. 1 Middle School, they were received by the admissions office.

The teacher in the Admissions Office is named Yu Xiaoqin. When he heard that Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong both got full marks in the Hua Cup, the eyes he looked at Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong were so gentle and tender, wishing that they would immediately Able to come to No. 1 Middle School to attend classes.

 Pei Tiantian read through the contents of the agreement. Tuition and miscellaneous fees will be free for three years, and there will be a monthly living allowance of 50 yuan. She will also be directly arranged to enter the best rocket class in the junior high school.

 Pei Tiantian signed her name with satisfaction, and after signing the agreement, the two of them went to No. 1 Middle School to visit the junior high school of Ichiban No. 1 Middle School in person, led by Yu Xiaoqin and Tao Jing.

No. 1 Middle School is indeed the best middle school in the city. It has an elegant environment, a newly built library, and various supporting facilities in the classrooms.

This also made Pei Tiantian regret her decision less and less.

Sure enough, you still have to come to the city to study. You can't accept such good educational conditions if you stay in a town.

After leaving No. 1 Middle School, Tao Jing took Gu Rong and Pei Tiantian to a nearby amusement park.

What Tao Jing didn't expect was that Gu Rong and Pei Tiantian seemed to have little interest in everything in the amusement park. After playing on the merry-go-round and Ferris wheel, they lost interest.

Pei Tiantian feels that these amusement facilities are too backward now, so she doesn’t want to play.

But Gu Rong was simply not interested in the amusement park. He even asked Tao Jing where the library in the city was and where he wanted to read.

Tao Jing was quite confused about whether to laugh or cry.

She shouldn't regard these two precocious little people as those children who love to play, so Tao Jing took someone by the hand and took them to the library in the city center to read.

As soon as she arrived at the entrance of the library, Tao Jing was suddenly stopped by two people.

A bald man and a man wearing glasses looked at Gu Rong and Pei Tiantian with smiles, and then said to Tao Jing: "Madam, are you interested in letting your two children go over there to participate in the audition?" What? Our crew is filming in the park over there, and the extras each have a labor fee of 200 yuan."

“Two little classmates, do you want to make a guest appearance? If you go, each of you will have 200 yuan, and you can use this money to buy a lot of delicious food!”

Seeing that Tao Jing didn't speak, the two men were talking to Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong again.

“The image of these two little classmates is so good. It would be a pity not to go. I can earn hundreds of dollars just by playing a small role. Isn’t it great?”

Pei Tiantian was a little amused. What's the point of having a good image? In the past, they just served as the background of the camera.

But Pei Tiantian was still a little excited when she heard the 200 yuan.

Tao Jing glanced at them warily, "Who is your director?"

Baldhead said: "Do you know Director Qi An? He is a great director!"

Tao Jing was a little skeptical when she heard this. When did a great director like Qi An come to a small city like Jade City?

The man with glasses said: "We really didn't lie to you. The crew needs a hundred young actors at the moment. Now that schools are on vacation, we won't be able to recruit people for a while, so we ran to the streets to recruit people."

“Sister, come with us and take a look to see if we are telling lies.”

Pei Tiantian blinked.

Director Qi An, isn’t this the noble heroine?

The great director who brought the heroine into the entertainment industry.

But Qi An's filming was supposed to be in the heroine's second year of junior high school. Why was it suddenly brought forward?

Pei Tiantian was puzzled. She asked, "Uncle, what kind of movie are you filming?"

Baldhead said: "The movie "The Truth, The Truth", the big star Jiang Ziyu was filming there. We really didn't lie."

"The Truth, The Truth", starring Jiang Ziyu, has everything right.

It seems that Qi An really came to Jade City two years in advance to shoot this movie, and this movie is also Xue Ningxiang’s debut.

Xue Ningxiang plays Xiaoling, the daughter of the film heroine Zhang Meng in this movie.

Zhang Meng abandoned the young Xiaoling for some unavoidable reasons, and then Zhang Meng became a primary school teacher. When he took the students out for a spring outing, he accidentally met the twelve-year-old Xiaoling, who was also a mother and daughter. The scene where the two meet for the first time after reuniting.

Although Xue Ningxiang’s character Xiao Ling only appeared for a few minutes, because Xiao Ling died soon after.

But this role is crucial, because the entire movie is mainly about Zhang Meng's pursuit of the truth about the death of his daughter Xiaoling.

So Xiaoling’s appearance also plays a great role in promoting the plot.

Pei Tiantian can only blame the change in plot for the movie that was inexplicably filmed two years ahead of schedule.

Anyway, many plots have changed, and this is not the least of them.

However, Pei Tiantian rolled her eyes.

It seems like a good idea to go to the studio and see the excitement, and you can get 200 yuan.

And Pei Tiantian really wants to see what Jiang Ziyu looks like.

 It is said in the novel that Jiang Ziyu was a famous beauty in the entertainment industry, although she later died of depression.

But her beauty is still remembered by many people. Every time we take stock of the beauties in the entertainment industry, she always has a place.

Qi An is also an internationally renowned director. Although he is famous for his sharp tongue and bad mouth, except for being gentle to Xue Ningxiang, Pei Tiantian has not seen any stars in Pei Tiantian's novels that Qi An has not scolded.

“Godmother, let’s go and see it, I’ve never seen a celebrity before!”

Pei Tiantian tugged on Tao Jing's clothes and begged.

Tao Jing was obviously a little moved.

She has seen a lot of director Qi An's works and likes this director very much.

Furthermore, the heroine of this movie is still Jiang Ziyu, and Tao Jing is an old classmate of her. Since he knew that she was filming here, he definitely wanted to meet her.

Tao Jing nodded, "Okay, let's go take a look too. Gu Rong, do you want to go? If not, just stay in the library and read. Tiantian and I will pick you up later."

There was no expression on Gu Rong's face. Although he didn't want to join in the fun, he didn't want to leave Tao Jing and Pei Tiantian. So Gu Rong forced himself to speak: "Teacher Tao, I'll go with you..."

When Tao Jing heard what he said, she took him and Pei Tiantian and followed the two men to the park quickly.

The park has been cleared, and many people in the park are adults and children acting as extras.

Pei Tiantian visually estimated that there were probably dozens of young actors lining up.

The field staff is arranging positions for them, asking them to stand here and there for a while, looking for a seat.

Seeing that the bald man and the man with glasses brought two more children, the attendant directly added Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong to the queue.

Tao Jing stood not far away and saw the middle-aged man sitting in the middle of the bustling crowd, staring intently at the machine.

It’s really the director Qi An.

Tao Jing looked around and saw a tall, fair-skinned beauty standing in front of several young actors.

She still had a smile on her face and was talking softly to the young actors.

Tao Jing quickly recognized that this person was Jiang Ziyu, and a smile appeared on her lips.

Jiang Ziyu happened to raise her eyes and met Tao Jing's eyes. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, as if she couldn't believe that she would see Tao Jing here.

Jiang Ziyu mouthed and told her, "Wait until I finish the work!"

Tao Jing nodded to show that she understood.

Pei Tiantian was lining up in the queue. She held Gu Rong's hand and looked around with her little head, taking a look at the scenery around her.

It seems that the scene shot today was really the scene where Xue Ningxiang auditioned.

However, the filming of the movie has been advanced. Will Xue Ningxiang still come to audition like in the novel?

And Xue Ningxiang was brought to the audition by her stepfather Liu Changlong at that time.

Now that Liu Changlong is not her stepfather, I wonder who will bring the heroine to the audition now? Maybe it was Yang Qiong, or maybe someone else.

At this time, Pei Tiantian heard someone saying "Jiang Ziyu". She looked along those people and saw Jiang Ziyu.

Wow, she is really a beauty! She looks like a fairy and has a different style than everyone else.

Pei Tiantian shook Gu Rong's arm excitedly, "Brother Gu Rong, look! Beautiful sister Jiang Ziyu!"

At Pei Tiantian's urging, Gu Rong frowned and glanced at Jiang Ziyu, then withdrew his eyes.

This rather cold look puzzled Pei Tiantian, "Brother Gu Rong, isn't Jiang Ziyu beautiful? Don't you like it? Why are you so cold?"

Gu Rong: “I don’t like it.”

A question popped up in Pei Tiantian's head: "She is so beautiful, and you don't like her?!"

Gu Rong looked at Pei Tiantian expressionlessly, "I don't know her, why should I like her?"

Why should he like a stranger whom he does not know?

Pei Tiantian: "But she is a big star."

Gu Rong: "I don't like big stars either."

Pei Tiantian: “…”

Well, look at the villain boss, he doesn’t look like a woman.

After a few words of displeasure from the villain boss, Pei Tiantian stopped murmuring.

Soon, the arrangements were made for her and Gu Rong to be assigned to different people.

Pei Tiantian was assigned a supporting role as a teacher in the movie, who was the colleague of the heroine Zhang Meng.

What Pei Tiantian has to do now is to stand in the team, listen to the supporting teacher, and then act as a backdrop.

Since their scene was not the main scene of the movie, they shot it very quickly and finished it in just a few takes.

After Pei Tiantian received 200 yuan for her labor service, she went to find Tao Jing.

As soon as he found Tao Jing, he saw Tao Jing pointing not far away.

Pei Tiantian followed Tao Jing's gaze and suddenly felt like a lemon.

The villain boss was directly assigned to the heroine Jiang Ziyu, who plays their class teacher Zhang Meng.

Gu Rong was only one step away from Jiang Ziyu, and the other young actors looked at Jiang Ziyu without blinking, with admiration and affection in their eyes.

Only the villain boss stood by with an expressionless face, looking like a laborer who was forced to carry bricks.

“Brother Gu Rong is so blessed that he never knows how lucky he is. Jiang Ziyu is so beautiful. It would be great to be able to film with Jiang Ziyu, even if he is just a small player.”

Tao Jing couldn't help but smile after hearing Pei Tiantian's sour words, "Don't be envious of Gu Rong. How about your godmother take you to have dinner with Jiang Ziyu later?"

Pei Tiantian was stunned for a moment and quickly looked at Tao Jing, "Godmother? You... do you know Jiang Ziyu?"

Tao Jing nodded calmly, "Jiang Ziyu is my high school classmate."

Pei Tiantian stared with round grape eyes, Tao Jing actually has such a relationship with Jiang Ziyu!

Ahahaha, this is too coincidental.

Tao Jing: "So we have to wait here for Jiang Ziyu to finish work before we can have dinner with her. Are you hungry? I'll buy you and Gu Rong something to eat."

Pei Tiantian put her little fleshy hand in Tao Jing's palm and said, "Godmother, let me go with you. I'm afraid that the filming of Brother Gu Rong's side won't be finished for a while."

Tao Jing nodded.

There were all kinds of noisy voices in Gu Rong's ears, including those of the studio staff, the young actor's family, and the young actor himself.

Hearing this, Gu Rong was very upset.

He was looking around for Tao Jing and Pei Tiantian, wanting to tell them that he no longer wanted to be a bit player.

Only found that the two people had gone somewhere.

Gu Rong's face was stunned for a moment.

“Director Qi, the actors I selected to audition for Xiao Ling are here.” Assistant Director Li spoke to Qi An.

Qi An didn't even raise his head yet, "I understand, let them wait first."

Several little girls of eleven or twelve years old, all dressed up, some even wearing mature makeup.

Especially the little girl in the lead, who is about 1.6 meters tall, wearing a miniskirt that exposes her knees, and with blue eyeshadow on her eyelids. She looks too mature, not even like a child.

This girl seemed to be very unaccustomed to dressing up like this, so she looked a little uneasy, "Sister, I don't think I should dress up like this, it's too mature..."

Xue Tingting pulled the little girl over, leaned into her ear and said: "How mature are you? Look at the other actors, don't they also wear makeup? Don't forget that the assistant director said you have acting talent. Yes, I believe you can win this role."

Xue Ningxiang took a deep breath, nodded, and walked over with her head held high.

The assistant director was about to lead these people over, but unexpectedly he saw these little girls, each dressed more coquettishly than the other.

The corner of his mouth twitched, secretly thinking something bad.

Since Director Qi was the one who selected the actors today, he specially asked a few young actors to dress up nicely and leave a good impression on Director Qi. However, he did not expect that these eleven or twelve-year-old girls were dressed up too nicely.

They are all beyond their years.

Assistant Director Li hurriedly stepped forward and whispered: "What are you doing? Take off your makeup quickly. What does it look like!"

“Assistant Director Li, where are the people you brought?” Qi An stood up from the machine and asked.

“Here they are.” Assistant Director Li could only bite the bullet and bring Xue Ningxiang and the others over.
