Chapter 48(2/3)
"Immortal Battle" is a national star show. Many viewers are not familiar with online variety shows and have not yet recognized the crystal girl. They are seeking popular science in barrage. "Flash Moment" was broadcasted after "Immortal Battle". Fans did not get the news. They suddenly saw the five happy monkeys, and they were surprised that the dimension wall was broken. Unexpectedly, the first star-listed variety show in the girl group was actually caught up inexplicably!
Lu Lin felt frustrated in the face of the students' strange eyes, and pretended to be sad and said, "Why? I don't even borrow it?"
Chen Sijia looked embarrassed. She looked at the members of the group and finally whispered: "How much do you want to borrow..." The travel funds are limited. If Lu Lin borrowed too much, they would have no money to buy gifts.
Chu Ruiqing calmly finished shooting: "Remember to write an IOU."
Lu Lin: "…"
Lu Lin made a big joke and looked at them as stingy. He was both angry and funny, and waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go! I won't borrow it from you guys with no conscience!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Mei said decisively: "Thank you, tutor, beg you!"
The others said goodbye one after another, and they seemed to want to run away, for fear that Lu Lin would mention the word "borrow money" again and slip as quickly as possible. The crystal girl hadn't run far, but after a while, she heard Lu Lin catch up from behind, and he shouted, "Wait, you guys stop!"
Lu Lin panted and chased everyone and said, "Chu Ruiqing, come here and do me a favor."
Chu Ruiqing was silent for a moment and said frankly: "I have no money."
Lu Lin smiled and gritted his teeth: "I won't lend you money."
The crystal girl then agreed and followed Lu Lin back to see what he was going to do. They went deep into the food street and saw Dou Yan circling in front of the stall, as if he was completing the task.
It turned out that Lu Lin wanted to ask Chu Ruiqing to help pass the level. The three levels of "Immortal Battle" in the food street are ferrule, archery, and boxing strength tests. They are common small games at temple fairs. Only after passing can the task funds be obtained. Dou Yan held the light bamboo circle, and he failed to aim again, complaining: "This circle is too light and cannot be hit."
Seeing that Dou Yan failed repeatedly, Chen Sijia was afraid that Chu Ruiqing would delay her for too long, so she asked in a low voice: "Do you want to help? Then our evening trip will be cancelled?"
Happy Five Monkeys originally planned to take a taxi to the next location, but suddenly ran into the recording of "Immortal War". They seemed to be going to stay for a while, and the original plan needed to be adjusted.
Chu Ruiqing looked around. She understood the rules of the three levels and calmly said: "No, you can call a taxi."
Chen Sijia: "!!?"
Chu Ruiqing felt that the third level would not be too long, so he just happened to get a taxi to pick him up now.
Dou Yan couldn't help but mutter: "Teacher Lu Lin, your student's tone is too loud..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Ruiqing had thrown out a light bamboo circle and landed steadily on the target object.
Dou Yan: "…"
Chu Ruiqing saw that he hit the target with one blow and threw out two bamboo circles in succession. She accurately captured the remaining target and easily passed this level.
Seeing that Dou Yan was defeated, Lu Lin only regained some face and sighed with his back: "A young man, if he has strength, he has personality."
Chu Ruiqing did not hear the chat of Lu Dou and raised the arrow cleanly to aim, and entered the second level. She narrowed her eyes, aimed slightly at the star, and shot an arrow mercilessly, hitting the red heart!
The other two arrows were also shot very well. The bow and arrow that had originally missed its head fell into her hands and became perfect!
It took Chu Ruiqing only a few minutes to pass the first two levels, which was completely different from Dou Yan who had been silly. As soon as she stood in front of the boxing tester, she saw Chen Sijia pointing to her phone, and the other party said verbally: "The car is coming soon."
Chu Ruiqing didn't dare to delay, so she punched the instrument and then asked, "Has it been passed?"
The staff saw the numbers clearly and nodded in shock: "It's passed, it's past, this is the mission fund..."
Chu Ruiqing did not accept the envelope. She and Lu Lin and Dou Yan said goodbye politely, and then left in a hurry. Lu Lin took the envelope with satisfaction. He saluted Chu Ruiqing who was running away from home and said carelessly: "Thank you!"
Chu Ruiqing had already run two steps, and stopped again seeing this. She returned a greeting uncertainly and tentatively said: "Serve the people?"
Lu Lin: "..." Where did she learn this??
After Chu Ruiqing finished saluting, regardless of Lu Lin's reaction, she followed her companions and left like a whirlwind, as if she had never appeared in "The Battle of Immortality", leaving only the back like Lei Feng.
Dou Yan looked at the number "999" on the instrument and exclaimed: "Is this meant a 999 pound of boxing force? Or a 999 pound?"
The staff calmly said: "None is, it means that the instrument can withstand the upper limit of its strength."
Dou Yan: "..." Is this the legendary god of learning, and how many points will be obtained in the paper?
Dou Yan looked at the boxing tester and was eager to try it. He pulled his posture away, groaned, and punched the instrument with all his strength!
The number "437" flashed on the instrument is less than half that of Chu Ruiqing.
Dou Yan's face was cold: "Okay, you don't have to tell me the unit of measurement. I don't want to know if it's a pound or a pound now."
Staff: "…"
The Crystal Girls flashed for a few minutes in "The Battle of Immortality". Although they appeared in small numbers, they brought endless happiness to the audience. The barrage appeared more and more passers-by who were seeking popular science, especially Chu Ruiqing, who was ruthless and talked a lot.
——Chu Ruiqing: You're welcome, the red scarf on my chest is even brighter [doge]
——The results of the boxing force test show that 1 Dou Yan is about 0.5 Chu Ruiqing??
——No, 999 represents the upper limit, similarly, one Dou Yanyuan is less than 0.5 Chu Ruiqing [doge]
——Pastors seek popular science. What kind of regiment is this? Sports regiment? Militia regiment?
——Don’t ask, ask is a large women’s community performance and square dance troupe [doge]
Chu Ruiqing appeared in a few minutes through "The Battle of Immortality", and Weibo actually rose by hundreds of thousands of fans overnight, successfully entering the 10 million mark. Fans couldn't help but sigh that the power of national variety shows was completely different in the magnitude of communication and extremely fast results.
Chu Ruiqing has now obtained a red v. She has only posted jobs since she started a blog. Except for the happy five monkeys during the group variety show, she has no selfie photos, and she perfectly performs her business functions on Weibo.
When the Crystal Girl returned from a trip, the Happy Five Monkeys looked energetic, but Xin Yuan and others seemed even more tired, as if they were suffering from shortage of funds. After a little adjustment, everyone continued to devote themselves to the intense and saturated work, and rushed to various announcements mechanically, racing against time to grab the market.
They not only compete with members of the group, but also with the unsuccessful candidates who failed their debut and other female stars outside the idol circle. They ran anxiously, not daring to rest for a second, as if they would be left behind by the rapidly changing market at any time, exhausting their current popularity.
Chu Ruiqing is resilient at work, but she occasionally reflects on whether the announcements and advertisements in the sky are useful to her, and whether she really has to use this kind of thing to give back to her fans? However, when everyone around her is in the same depressing environment, thinking and resistance seem to be punished, as if all idols in the world should work like this.
Fortunately, a trace of good news finally came from the endless silence. Director Hu Ping invited Chu Ruiqing to star in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" to play Zhou Zhiruo. The agent Liu Ge had long forgotten about this matter. After all, the audition result was like a rock sinking into the sea. No one else felt that there was no chance, but Director Hu would change his mind.
In fact, Hu Ping had also given up on Chu Ruiqing. Who made her acting skills completely fail? She had a temperament similar to the characters. There were still many actors with outstanding acting skills in the circle, and there was no reason to go far. However, Director Hu talked for a while, but in front of him, he always looked like Chu Ruiqing played Zhou Zhiruo. In addition, he found that other actresses asked too much, so he simply turned his head and found out that he had to find it.
Actresses with matching image and temperament do not shoot fight scenes or wires. Actresses who can shoot martial arts are older and have different appearances. Popular actresses are very expensive and have to leave the group frequently. Unpopular actresses have no data and the investors do not recognize them...
Director Hu Ping searched for him and found it a little ridiculous. There was no one in the huge entertainment industry!?
The investors respect Hu Ping's qualifications. They think that the requirements are already very low, as long as the two female leads have some traffic. Hu Ping chose Zhen Zhen, a young actress who is highly praised by a well-known film and television company, and then found the popular traffic idol Chu Ruiqing, feeling that he had fulfilled the requirements of the investors.
Of course, when Hu Ping saw Chu Ruiqing again, he still made some requests. Chu Ruiqing came to the audition site, which was still the room. She met Director Hu and the crew who had just said goodbye.
Both sides sat down, Hu Ping carefully said, "That's right, because I may be a more turtle person, so there are some small standards. I hope you can do it... After listening to it today, go back with the team first and discuss it, and then let's talk about cooperation. How about it?"
Chu Ruiqing was stunned. She looked at her agent Brother Liu. Brother Liu said politely: "Tell me, we will definitely work hard!"
Hu Ping immediately reached out to stop him and said with a smile: "No, no, don't, you'd better listen first."
Hu Ping retreated with a kind smile. He became serious and serious, and said solemnly: "First, there are many martial arts moves in this drama, and it is inevitable that you will have to hang a wire. Dangerous moves will definitely be used as a stand-in, but I hope you can do everything you can accomplish by yourself."
Chu Ruiqing: "Okay."
"This is easy for you..." Hu Ping smiled and continued, "The second is that you can't play during filming, and you can't even answer notices, so you can ensure that you are focused on the crew within three months. Before the filming starts, I hope you can also actively participate in the script reading and communicate with the crew in the early stages."
The agent Brother Liu's face changed slightly. He was about to say a few words when he heard Chu Ruiqing respond: "Okay."
"Third, you have to apply for leave after starting the filming process. You only have 3 days off during the filming period. If the crew needs actors to dub after the filming is completed, I hope you can take time to enter the recording studio to complete the task with quality and quantity."
Chu Ruiqing did not agree immediately this time. She thought for a while, as if she had noticed the signs in the director's words, and asked, "How many days will other people have to leave?"
Hu Ping was silent for a few seconds and confessed: "More than you, some people have taken on several dramas, but they are all old actors I have worked with many times. I have confidence in their acting skills."
"To be honest, if I let you out too often, I wouldn't be sure to hold this big plate." Hu Ping was afraid that Chu Ruiqing would think more, so he had to add another sentence. He felt that Chu Ruiqing had potential, but he could not risk the quality of the TV series, and eventually let her drag her down.
Hu Ping actually doesn't like to meddle in other people's business. Whether the actors are playing the show is their personal choice. The audience only watches the results on the screen in the end. The experienced actors are still able to play the show with 100 plays. The audience is very good at acting and does not care whether they are busy during the acting. However, if beginners want to understand the tricks of acting, they must not run around. Hu Ping felt that Chu Ruiqing was a little awesome. He wanted to teach her something, but was afraid that the other party would not appreciate it, so he put forward strict conditions from the beginning.
After hearing this explanation, Chu Ruiqing felt it was reasonable. Others had been acting for many years, but she had just started out and had no problems with the holidays. She thought it was still early before the Crystal Girls' concert and had no important work during the period, so she replied: "Okay."
But the agent, Brother Liu, had already changed his mind, and he said officially: "Director Hu, please let us go back and discuss with the team?"
Director Hu Ping's face was calm when he heard this. He smiled comprehensively and said, "Of course, I said it from the beginning, you can discuss it."
In the nanny's car, the agent Brother Liu led Chu Ruiqing into the car. Seeing that there was no one around, he frowned and lowered his voice: "Do you know how much it will take to agree to these conditions?"
Chu Ruiqing looked puzzled: "The concert will take a long time, and the crew has finished the filming."
Brother Liu Zhenzhen said, "It's not a concert. During this period, you may receive countless good announcements, but if you are all in the group for three months, all resources will be ruined... Director Hu asked you to communicate with the crew in advance, and it is very likely that you want you to join the group early to get familiar with it, so that there will be more delays!"
Chu Ruiqing said calmly: "Only by giving up can you gain. What people want to gain will inevitably give."
Seeing that she was not enlightened, Brother Liu said, "You don't understand. Now for you, time is money, and you will lose potential commercial value, and bet on a drama with uncertain reputation..."
Chu Ruiqing: "Didn't it say that Director Hu has good business capabilities?"
Brother Liu was quite social and asked back: "Are there few famous directors whose reputation has declined now? Aren't many big dramas confused?"
Brother Liu, a socialist, just now politely praised Hu Ping in person, turned his head and muttered privately that the other party would also miss the situation, which made Chu Ruiqing feel quite moved. The people at the foot of the mountain were indeed hidden and everyone was very capable of acting, and they wished that the whole nation could hold the Oscars and the Golden Man.
Chu Ruiqing knew that the other party had also considered it. She tried her best to analyze it calmly and said tactfully: "Brother Liu, in fact, what is not in my hands can't be considered what I have."
Chu Ruiqing certainly knew that Brother Liu and his team had plans. They could pull out a lot of fresh young flowers and told her seriously that they were all opponents for resources. After all, the pace of people around them was so busy, and delaying three months was likely to make the artists in the rising period shudder.
However, Chu Ruiqing felt that Hu Ping’s requirements were not too much, at least within her own acceptance range. Brother Liu was thinking about problems from the perspective of artist agents, while Director Hu was thinking about problems from the perspective of project production, and his position was different.
Brother Liu frowned and asked, "Do you want to act? I remember you weren't that interested in this drama before?"
After all, Chu Ruiqing seemed to have a little dissatisfaction with the original work in the past, although she did not show it clearly.
Chu Ruiqing replied: "I want to act now."
Because she felt that Director Hu was not as bad as Brother Liu said, and in her opinion, many announcements did not improve herself.
Brother Liu was speechless for a moment and finally said with a compromise: "I'll go back to have a meeting with the team, and this is not something we can discuss."
Chu Ruiqing didn't know what the final meeting between Brother Liu and the team was, but she quickly received a notice that Feifan Yaoying ceo Qin Feifan wanted to meet her. Although "Idol Rookie" is a variety show on a video website, the production team came from Feifan Yaoying, and Crystal Girl's agency contract naturally fell into the hands of this company.
