Lin Daiyu's Battle in the Entertainment Industry
Chapter 7
Liu Feng's company was on the eighteenth floor of a tall building. To be honest, Daiyu had never seen such a tall building. Moreover, the eighteenth floor was considered low. There were many more floors above it.
Although she was very surprised, she had lived for a lifetime and watched TV often. She wasn't considered ignorant and inexperienced, so she didn't show it.
Liu Feng, who was traveling with them, secretly observed her reaction. He was very satisfied with this. He knew that this sister Lin was not ordinary.
When they arrived at the company, the entire eighteenth floor was Liu Feng's company. Although it was called Morning Star Entertainment Company, compared to other entertainment companies, this floor was especially small.
Fortunately, there weren't many people in the company. When Liu Feng arrived, the others had already arrived. Other than Liu Feng, his employees were a cashier, a human resources manager, an artist manager, and a dance teacher. The rest of the physical and vocal teachers were all hired from specialized schools. They weren't considered Morning Star employees.
Other than these, there were a few obviously young people. They should be the signed trainees. There were five trainees in the past. Probably because the results of the competition were too shocking, four of them had already terminated their contracts. The remaining one Liu Feng had contacted a web drama crew to play a supporting role.
The people here now were all newly recruited.
Other than Daiyu, there were eight people, six guys and two girls. Daiyu knew them one by one. They looked at Daiyu with complicated gazes.
Zhang Jin was a sunny and cheerful girl. She had always been very confident in her appearance. However, the moment she saw Daiyu, she felt a rare sense of inferiority.
Thinking about it, it made sense. Of the people standing here, which one of them wasn't the cream of the crop? Otherwise, they wouldn't have been discovered. However, the entertainment industry itself was a place where handsome men and beautiful women gathered. Everyone was beautiful, but how many of them actually relied on their looks to become famous?
Although people nowadays were obsessed with looks, it was fast to be a fan. It was even faster to climb the wall!
If one didn't have talent, it was impossible to be remembered by others just based on looks.
However, the moment they saw Daiyu, everyone knew that she was someone who could become famous just based on her looks. This was because when one's looks reached a certain level, one could ignore everything else. In the entertainment industry, the average person was good-looking, but the overall appearance was about the same. It wouldn't be so ridiculously good-looking.
Lin Daiyu happened to be ridiculously good-looking!
However, this face was given by her parents. They couldn't be envious. Of course, at this time, other than her parents, there were also plastic surgeons.
Not to mention the risks of plastic surgery. Even if it was successful, there were millions of men and women who had plastic surgeries....... only a few people with fake faces.
The few of them were envious of Daiyu's unique looks. Of course, they were also jealous. However, they knew that they were in the same boat. As long as one of them became famous, the company would become famous and their popularity would definitely increase.
The few of them were very enthusiastic about Daiyu. Daiyu lived with two other girls, Zhang Jin and Xu Mengmeng. For Daiyu, who was already used to living on campus, it wasn't difficult. On the first day, they moved things and got to know each other. On the second day, they had to practice intensively. After all, there was less than half a month before the "202" audition.
Xu Mengmeng graduated from high school this year. Zhang Jin was a sophomore. The two of them were already adults. Only Daiyu was a little younger. However, the three of them weren't difficult to get along with, so there weren't any conflicts for the time being.
The next day, Daiyu woke up early. She was naturally thin. After breakfast, she went to the practice room. In the morning, she practiced voice. In the afternoon, she practiced dancing. As Daiyu hadn't received any special training, she had to start from scratch. The others were fine. For example, Zhang Jin's singing was good. She only needed to focus on the dance part.
Xu Mengmeng used to do live streaming. She was a popular female streamer. She had some foundation in singing and dancing. However, that was all.
She mainly did exercises to strengthen herself.
Unfortunately, Zhang Jin was fat. She didn't talk much about body building. More importantly, when the others were eating in the morning, she only drank a glass of water!
Daiyu looked at her sympathetically. After breakfast, she went to the practice room by herself.
In her previous life, she had started taking medicine before she learned how to eat. Her body was weak, her appetite was small, and she didn't have a good appetite. It was rare for her to have a healthy body in this life. She had always been grateful.
Although Daiyu hadn't practiced singing or dancing, her body was flexible. She had watched many performances before. Although she was a little shy, she learned quickly.
The teachers were also very satisfied with her. They kept comforting her and telling her not to be nervous. Daiyu wanted to say that she wasn't nervous. She was shy. However, looking at the teachers' encouraging eyes and thinking about her grandma lying alone in the hospital bed, she was fearless!
This era was different from the past. She shouldn't stay in the past.
As she thought about it, her eyes became firmer. Her singing voice became louder and her dancing movements became stronger.
The days passed by in this busy practice. The auditions for "202" had begun. Many companies would send trainees to participate in the auditions. The auditions wouldn't be on TV.
However, this had nothing to do with Daiyu. As an "old" company that participated in the auditions last year, Morning Star Entertainment had the right to enter the competition directly. Of course, there was a limit to the number of contestants.
Daiyu asked for leave and went to the hospital to visit her grandmother. Seeing that her grandmother was much more energetic after coming here and that she had a few old friends to chat with, Daiyu was relieved and felt that she had made the right decision to come here.
Then she took the written number and called her "Sister Bao". She had to see her anyway. After all, she had come to Beijing.
The phone was answered by a gentle female voice.
"Hello?
This is Xue Family. Who is this? "
It should be Sister Bao's mother. Daiyu hurriedly said, "Hello, Madam. I'm Daiyu. I'm looking for Sister Bao Chai."
Mother Xue: "…" She looked at the phone and was speechless.
"I'm Mrs. Wang."
Daiyu: "…"
Although it was a little complicated, Daiyu still met her "Sister Bao". She looked at the person in front of her who didn't look like the person in the photo. However, the person next to her, who was said to be Sister Bao's younger brother, looked more like her.
"Big Sister Bao, why do you look so different?"
The two people opposite her, Xue Mingche and his sister, Xue Mingfei, were still intoxicated by Sister Lin's beauty. They broke out in cold sweat when they were suddenly asked.
Xue Mingfei raised her eyebrows and glanced at her younger brother, Xue Minglang. She smiled happily and said, "Oh, I felt that I didn't look good before, so I specially went for plastic surgery." She then looked at Daiyu excitedly and asked, "How is it? Do I look better than before?"
Daiyu said sincerely, "Sister, you look the best no matter what!"
Xue Mingfei laughed and pinched Daiyu's cheek. She teased, "You're such a sweet talker. I wish you were my biological sister."
Daiyu smiled and didn't reply. She felt that it was strange. Xue Mingfei was strange, and Xue Mingche was even stranger. Daiyu looked at Xue Mingche and saw him looking at her with a smile. They seemed to be very close.
Daiyu was speechless. That was even stranger!
Daiyu still couldn't figure out the reason until she returned to the dormitory. She took out the photos that Sister Bao had given her. Daiyu looked at them carefully and recalled the details of the Xue siblings. Suddenly, she seemed to have realized something and stood up hurriedly.
Xu Mengmeng and Zhang Jin, who were lying on the bed with face masks, were so shocked that they thought something had happened. Xu Mengmeng muttered something and Zhang Jin tugged at her.
Daiyu didn't notice the two's little movements. Right now, all she could think about was that she had been deceived!
When the Xue siblings returned home, Xue Mingfei sat on the sofa and kicked off her high heels. She crossed her arms and looked at her brother. "Tell me, what else are you hiding from me?"
Xue Mingche said, "Just this one."
"You're quite brave!
How dare you have an online relationship without telling us! "
Xue Mingche's face turned red. "I'm not in an online relationship."
"You dare say that you don't have such thoughts?"
Xue Mingche said, "…" Well, he didn't dare.
"Do you think she'll believe you?"
He felt quite conflicted. He wanted Daiyu to believe him, but he didn't feel good if she really believed him.
"Do you think she'll believe you?"
Xue Mingfei asked. It was normal that she couldn't think of it since it was the first time they met. However, she could tell that the girl was smart. With her brother's poor acting skills, he was still too inexperienced to deceive her.
"You'd better plan early!"
The next day, Daiyu saw Xue Mingche. Daiyu ignored him. She felt that this person was disgusting. He was obviously a stinky man, but he pretended to be a girl and deceived her. Although she wasn't deceived, she hated people who deceived her the most!
She always thought that girls would tell each other little secrets. She didn't expect that this was the case. He was really disgusting!
Therefore, she decided to ignore him!
However, Xue Mingche kept following her and got other people into trouble!
He kept glancing at her. Daiyu had no choice but to follow him to the side and ask him, "What's the matter?"
Xue Mingche sincerely apologized, "I'm sorry."
"What are you sorry for?
Mr. Xue's words made me very confused. "
Xue Mingche said in a pleasant tone, "I lied to you."
"At that time, I just wanted to do a good deed without leaving my name because it was a charity event. I felt that I was very noble. However, the teacher said that I must write my name for this kind of one-to-one sponsorship, so I just made up a random name."
"I said that my name was Xue Baochai, but I never said whether I was a boy or a girl. It was you who called me sister."
He was a little rebellious.
Daiyu said, "…" Who knew that Xue Baochai was a boy!
"Why did you agree when I called you sister?
If you told me clearly, I would have accepted it if you said that you were a boy. "
"Yes, yes, yes. It's my fault. I'm sorry."
"… You've already apologized!"
Daiyu felt that it was quite boring. She thought that she had made a close friend, but who knew that he was a liar?
Indeed, Xue Mingche sponsored her. This was an unchangeable fact. She loved to read, especially some of the unique books. However, such things did not exist in this era. Of course, in this era, the printing technology was so advanced that everyone could read. Books were no longer valuable.
However, the books that Xue Mingche gave her were not available in ordinary bookstores.
She was very grateful for this.
She was just angry that she was cheated!
But on second thought, with their relationship, there was no need to be so angry. At most, they could just be ordinary friends in the future.
"If there's nothing else, you can go back first. I'm very busy recently."
Seeing Daiyu's calm expression, Xue Mingche felt that this matter was over. He smiled and agreed.
He encouraged Daiyu, "I will vote for you outside!"
"Thank you."
…
After Xue Mingche left, Xu Mengmeng and Zhang Jin, who were gossiping just now, surrounded Daiyu with curiosity.
"Who was that person just now?
Is he your boyfriend?
He's quite handsome! "
"He has a Beijing accent. You two shouldn't be together, right?
How did you two meet? "
Daiyu said calmly, "He sponsored me."
