I am a leader in the entertainment industry

Chapter 17: Shooting Daily Life

Since the filming of”Startling by Each Step” started, it has officially started. With the participation of a group of professional actors such as Tang Geqiang, the lower limit of this drama is guaranteed. In addition, the acting skills of Hu Ge, Zeng Li, Li Qi and others are also excellent representatives of the younger generation, so the filming of this TV series went very smoothly.

The stagehand came over and clapped the cue:”The **th scene of”Startling by Each Step”, the **th take, begins!”

At this time, Ruoxi, played by Liu Shishi, was sitting in the pavilion, holding a book in her hand, shaking her head and reading:”When I came back to Changmen, everything was different.

Why did we come together but not return together? The parasol tree was half dead after the frost, and the white-headed mandarin ducks flew away without their partner.

The grass on the plain was beginning to dry with dew.

The old roost and the new roost were both reluctant to part.

I lay on the empty bed listening to the rain outside the south window.

Who will mend clothes by lamplight at night?”

This poem”Queqiaotian·Revisiting Changmen, Everything Is Different” was written by He Zhuo, a poet in the Song Dynasty, to mourn his deceased wife, Zhao. The whole poem is very sad and touching. It is a rare masterpiece among the poems of mourning after the Tang and Song Dynasties.

When He Zhuo had to leave Suzhou, where he and his wife lived, he felt that things had changed and he had nowhere to vent his sorrow. He could only lament,”Why did we come together but not return together?” Listening to the night rain outside the south window, thinking of his wife mending his clothes late at night, the author expressed his deep nostalgia for his late wife, who had shared hardships and supported him through thick and thin.

《”Startling by Each Step” quoted it when the Eighth Prince first met Ruoxi, and it also has the meaning of metaphor for the fate of the Eighth Prince’s life.

Ruoxi put the book on the seat beside her in an annoyed mood, pouted her lips and thought to herself:”I am a person from the modern world, who has studied hard for sixteen years, but I have become a semi-illiterate person here.”

“Look up at the sky, look at such a beautiful sky, and you will forget all the unhappy things.”Ruoxi looked up and said to herself

Suddenly there was a burst of laughter, and a person came out from the side of the rockery. The Tenth Prince was played by Chen Xiao. He laughed and said to a person behind Ruoxi,”This little girl is interesting! She is so young, but how come she speaks like someone who has experienced the world, so mature that doesn’t match her age!”

Ruoxi was startled and turned around to see the Eighth Prince, played by Li Qi, walking towards her leisurely.

Li Qi was 22 years old, tall and slender, wearing a moon-white robe, with a green belt around his waist and a jade pendant of the same color hanging from it.

The Eighth Prince played by Li Qi looked at Ruoxi with a hint of surprise in his eyes. His expression was slightly changed, but he immediately returned to normal and turned away with a smile on his face.

Several people were performing here, and everyone outside came to watch. After all, this was Li Qi’s first appearance. However, judging from everyone’s reactions, it should be beyond their expectations.

Director Lin Jianfen was extremely satisfied with Li Qi. From the scene just now, we can see Li Qi’s skills. This is what is called an expert can tell the quality of a work with just one move.

After putting on makeup and finishing work at night, Li Qi hurried back to his hotel room because he had a lot of things to deal with. Although Miracle Media was handed over to Xiao Jiaer to handle, he still had to make decisions on some important matters.

“Li Qi, Xiaowen told me that you shaved your head. Please send me a photo quickly. I want to see it. Hahahaha······”Xiao Jiaer laughed and said on the other end of the phone

Xiaowen is the assistant that Xiao Jiaer arranged for Li Qi. She is the daughter of her aunt’s aunt’s aunt. She graduated from college and yearns for the entertainment industry.

However, the Xiao family does not allow their descendants to enter this industry, so they begged Xiao Jiaer. Xiao Jiaer waved her hand and said that if they did not want to enter the entertainment industry, they could be celebrity assistants.

Xiaowen was very happy when she heard this. When Xiao Jiaer arranged a series of books for her called”Superstar Assistant Manual”,》、《A hundred things to pay attention to when acting as a celebrity》、《What are the professional equipment for big star assistants? Xiaowen, a poor student, thought that these were the titles listed by Xiao Jiaer, and she must want her to back out.

Then she learned that the assistant is responsible for making and completing the daily schedule, including booking air tickets, contacting the media and organizers, and taking care of the guests. At the same time, she is also responsible for their publicity work and keeps an eye on the news online.

They also have to take care of the other person’s food, clothing, housing and transportation on the set. The job of an assistant does not have fixed working hours. It has to follow the star’s schedule and itinerary and be on call at any time, which is very hard.

However, most of the stars’ assistants are people they are familiar with. Some are their relatives. Even if they are not, they are introduced by some people they trust.

What made Xiaowen particularly upset was that there was an assessment in which she had to use various instruments to find all the micro cameras in a room. She didn’t pass the assessment, and there were unexpected and unexpected cameras in every corner! However, with her efforts, she finally passed the assessment, which also made her deeply afraid of places like hotels.

I have strayed off topic, let’s get back to Li Qi.

“”General Manager Xiao, stop joking. If you want to watch it, wait until the TV series is broadcast.” Li Qi said bluntly.

“Li Qi, wait for me to come over to visit you. Then I’ll touch your little bald head. Hahahaha······”Xiao Jiaer continued to say with a smile

“”General Manager Xiao, you can’t say that. Can you touch my little bald head casually?” Li Qi replied with a smile.

“you······, Okay, Li Qi, you dare to take advantage of me, Xiao Jiaer, you wait!” Xiao Jiaer said angrily after coming to her senses

Li Qi listened to the other party pretending to be angry and thought: You, a fox, have had evil intentions towards me for many times, thinking that I would not know. However, he saw through it but did not say it. This kind of thing is not surprising to him.

“Is there anything going on at the company?” Li Qi asked, changing the subject.

“Nothing happened, everything went well!���The sales of”Lovers” are increasing a lot every day, and the publisher hopes you can attend more promotional meetings.”Xiao Jiaer said

“Forget about attending the promotional event! With my appearance, bald head and joining the crew to film, I can just ask the company to issue more press releases.”Li Qi stretched out on the sofa and said

“Okay! I’ll take care of it, but Li Qi, I’m not saying anything bad about you, but other actors run to six or seven crews a year, do you want me to help you get more roles?” Xiao Jiaer said with some complaints

“Mr. Xiao, do I, Li Qi, need money?”Li Qi asked

“No shortage!”Xiao Jiaer thought for a moment and shook her head and replied

“Do I, Li Qi, need to be famous?”Li Qi said again

“No shortage!” Xiao Jiaer thought for a moment and replied

“Then why should I make myself so tired!”Li Qi stood up and stretched his right hand upwards and said domineeringly

Xiao Jiaer felt the other party’s pressure and was so angry that she said,”You will die if you don’t pretend! I am so angry! Also, how can the company make more money if you don’t take more roles?”

“You forgot! Chen Xiao and Na Xiaozha! Whether they can become famous depends on the roles you get for them!”Li Qi said

“”Okay, okay! By the way, I have sent you the investigation data on the game company via email. Remember to take a look. That’s it. Do you have anything else to do?” Xiao Jiaer said impatiently.

“It’s okay, thank you for your hard work, Mr. Xiao! I’ll treat you to a delicious meal when I get back!” Li Qi said with a smile

Li Qi was just about to open his computer to check his email when he heard a knock on the door.
