Zhao Liying seemed to be in a daze.
Feng Xiaogang asked again," This contestant, why did you choose to be an actor? Why do you want to participate in the search?"
Zhao Liying's answer surprised everyone." Because I have no other choice but to be an actress.”
Everyone was stunned. No one had expected Zhao Liying to say such a thing. Everyone was nervous.。。However, everyone was suddenly stunned because they realized that there was nothing to be nervous about. Although this sentence didn't sound safe, there was nothing wrong with it.
Feng Xiaogang's expression also changed a little when he heard Zhao Liying's answer." Do you have no other choice but to be an actress? Why?"
Zhao Liying's answer once again killed everyone." Because I think it's good to be an actress. Every girl wants to dress up beautifully and stand under the spotlight. They want to use the camera to record their most beautiful appearance so that they can be proud when they get old.| Pointing proudly at her own image on TV and telling her children and grandchildren that this was the beautiful version of her back then, just like how the old Rose in Titanic pointed at her young half-naked portrait and said to her granddaughter," This is the grandmother when she was young." That feeling was great. Thinking about the surprised expressions of her children and grandchildren in the future, she felt very happy.”
Everyone was so shocked that their mouths were wide open, but after thinking about it, they fell silent. Zhao Liying's words were too reasonable.
Feng Xiaogang nodded silently." Among actresses nowadays, there are many who had the same thoughts as you when they first entered the industry. But now, many people have left because they find that the path of acting is different from what they thought when they first entered the industry. Other than being glamorous, they have to suffer a lot. Being pressured, having black and white reversed, having irregular working hours, and so on are all the most common things. There are also countless dangers that exist at any time. Why do you think you can endure such hardships?”
Zhao Liying smiled sweetly." Before I joined this program, I was working as a sales assistant in a pharmaceutical factory in Langfang. I believe that some of you in the audience have worked as a sales assistant before, or have friends who have worked as sales assistants. I'm sure everyone knows what kind of life a sales assistant leads. I'm not complaining, I just want to tell everyone one thing-if you want to do well in every industry, you have to put in the same amount of hard work, but the ratio of effort and return is the same.
Also, I used to think that life as a salesperson was pretty good. I had a basic salary of 600 yuan a month, and I would get a commission if I successfully promoted. Later on, my colleagues said that this time, there was a civilian star search program on the yahoo search program team. They said that if I participated, I might get some prizes. Everyone recommended me, so I came.”
Zhao Liying's answer was so simple that it felt like she hadn't finished her sentence. At this moment, the host, Ye Taineng, asked," Contestant Zhao Liying, standing here, is there anyone you want to thank?”
Zhao Liying smiled sweetly and said," Now, I can only say that, standing here, I need to thank the most. Other than my parents and the company that organized this Star Search program, the person I need to thank the most is my cousin.”
Everyone was stunned.
At the show venue, countless people began to whisper." What did this girl on stage say? Thank cousin? She was wrong. She should be thanking her parents, right?”
However, what no one knew was that at this time, in the office of the Celestial Empire Building on the television, a few people were watching Zhao Liying on the television with interest. One of them laughed and said," This little girl is pretty good looking, and her words are even better. She's basically advertising our company for free, haha.”
……
Luo Xiaofan, who was in the audience, was also completely petrified.
He had been listening attentively to Zhao Liying's words earlier because he could feel that Zhao Liying's words had moved Feng Xiaogang.
But what he didn't expect was that this girl's last sentence was not to thank her aunt and uncle, but to himself. Even though Luo Xiaofan was knowledgeable and experienced, he was still a little stunned.
Feng Xiaogang was also stunned." Thank your cousin? Why?"
Zhao Liying didn't hide anything." Because the cost of participating in the show is too high.”
Everyone present was stunned. No one had expected this to be the reason. Feng Xiaogang also asked with interest," This money was paid by your cousin?"”
" Yes." Zhao Liying nodded and looked at Luo Xiaofan below the stage." When I was competing, all the expenses were given to me by my cousin. The songs I sang and the dances I danced were all taught by my cousin. Without him, I would have been eliminated in the second round of the singing competition and would never have lasted until the fifth round of the championship."”
Feng Xiaogang's expression finally changed." The song you sang was written by your cousin? Did your cousin make up the dance?"
Zhao Liying nodded.
Feng Xiaogang raised his eyebrows. This was the first time he had an expression since he participated in the third episode." Is your cousin here?"”
Zhao Liying pointed." It's right there.”
At this moment, Ye Taineng, the host who had been left to the side, could tell that everyone in the audience, including the audience in front of the television, was curious about who Zhao Liying's cousin was. Even Feng Xiaogang was curious. Ye Taineng had a plan in mind for this small episode. Here came his chance! It was time to show off in front of Feng Xiaogang!
Immediately, Ye Taineng couldn't care less about the production team's script. He also didn't care that the production team's director was so anxious that he wanted to kill someone. This was because Ye Taineng understood in his heart that no matter how awesome a lousy program director was, he couldn't be as awesome as Feng Xiaogang, right? With that thought, Ye Taineng jumped out and said loudly," Since Cousin is here, let's welcome him onto the stage, okay?”
The audience immediately laughed." Good!”
Thunder-like continuous heat| Loud applause sounded.
Feng Xiaogang smiled and looked at Ye Taineng, nodding approvingly. This look was enough to make Ye Taineng sleepless for many days.
At this time, Luo Xiaofan, who was sitting in the audience, could not help but smile bitterly. He never expected that he would be invited to the stage.
Standing on the stage again, under the gaze of hundreds of people, Luo Xiaofan did not have the slightest stage fright. He bowed and said," Thank you, everyone. I am Zhao Liying's cousin, Luo Xiaofan.”
Feng Xiaogang, who was sitting in the judging panel, suddenly laughed." Hey, I say, aren't you the one who acted in the drama with Zhao Liying in the last episode?”
Facing Feng Xiaogang, even the most famous celebrities had to bow their heads, but Luo Xiaofan just nodded and said," Director Feng, I was the male lead in the drama " Love and Betrayal " with Zhao Liying last time.”
At this moment, the audience below the stage finally reacted and shouted," So it's you! I was wondering who was performing with Zhao Liying, but it turns out to be you, the cousin behind the scenes!”
Feng Xiaogang asked," I just asked your cousin what she thought. Now, I want to ask you. What do you do? Do you know anything about the entertainment industry? Why did you agree to let your cousin take this path? Did her parents agree?"
Feng Xiaogang asked four questions in a row, and Luo Xiaofan answered all of them.
"Director Feng, I have to take full responsibility for what happened to my cousin. My cousin was admitted to the air stewardess school in 2005, but because of something I did, my cousin didn't go to school. Later, she went to work as a salesperson in a pharmaceutical factory. Later, I wrote a few songs and put them on the Internet. I was lucky enough to be liked by the netizens and earn a little money. It just so happened that Yahoo released this star search program.
I felt guilty towards my cousin, so I paid for her to go on this show. I didn't take any credit for it because she worked very hard herself and didn't get eliminated. As for my cousin's future acting career, her parents and I won't interfere much. We all have a supportive attitude.”
When Luo Xiaofan spoke, he didn't have the nervousness and confusion of an ordinary person who had just come on stage and stood under the spotlight. At this time, he seemed to be standing in his own backyard, just like the stars who had been standing on the stage for many years. This was Luo Xiaofan's character. Of course, it had something to do with his rebirth.
Feng Xiaogang nodded and spoke with a Beijing accent." Not bad. You're responsible and a man."”
The host, Ye Tai Neng, continued," Cousin, what else do you want to say to your cousin, Zhao Liying?”
The word "cousin" made the audience laugh.
Luo Xiaofan nodded and turned to Zhao Liying with a smile." Persevere!"”
Zhao Liying smiled." Victory!"
Mrs. Ye could see the situation clearly and said," Thank you for your encouragement just now, Cousin. Let's use applause to invite Cousin to rest first. Let's continue the competition."”
After the little episode of " Cousin ", everyone's love for Zhao Liying had increased to a whole new level. At the same time, they had a more natural way of addressing the handsome boy-" Cousin "!
Of course, among these audiences, there were many young people who liked to listen to music online. When they heard the words " Luo Xiaofan," their faces became extremely interesting.
Feng Xiaogang nodded at Ye Tai's resourcefulness. He looked at Liu Chuang, who was pale, and then looked at Zhao Liying, who was calm and composed. He already had an answer in his heart.
He picked up the microphone and said," Everyone here today, including the elderly, children, young people, and young girls, may not understand one thing. Why are actors called actors?”
Hearing Feng Xiaogang's words, everyone's interest was piqued.
Feng Xiaogang continued," In the minds of ordinary people, the word 'actor' may be associated with glamorous appearances, endless money, countless bodyguards, endless luxury cars, and so on. But I want to tell you that actors are just ordinary people. The luxury cars, watches, and other things in your eyes are only owned by celebrities, but who will become a celebrity? Actors, of course! However, although all celebrities were actors, not every actor would become a celebrity.”
The audience seemed to understand this refutation. They nodded and looked forward to this great director who was a man of few words continuing.
Feng Xiao suddenly stood up.
He continued," Actors are actually just like salesmen. They are both just professions. The difference between them is that salesmen sell goods, while actors sell themselves. Of course, don't get the wrong idea. When I say selling, I only mean selling goods.”
The audience smiled.
Feng Xiaogang continued," Just as Zhao Liying said, the most common understanding girls have of the path of acting is 'beauty'. Every girl loves beauty, just like how every man loves to look at beautiful women. This is human nature. But then again, acting is just a profession. Is this profession suitable for you?"
The audience laughed.
Feng Xiaogang paused for a moment and continued," Before I came here today, I wanted the two contestants to express their understanding of actors. Then, I wanted them to play the roles in my new movie and decide who to keep. However, I didn't expect that when I asked the two contestants why they chose the path of acting, they actually gave me two answers about life. This is something I didn't expect.”
Feng Xiaogang's words had completely stirred up the emotions of the audience. Feng Xiaogang continued," I'm not the director today. I'm just a HR manager who came to the market to select employees. If you're too arbitrary, you shouldn't say it from my mouth.| And so I thought,
Since our program is called Yahoos Star Search, the search should be to search for the celebrities that the people like, not the celebrities that the director wants. Therefore, today, I will give you the decision that should belong to me. I will let you choose who should go to the end today and win the championship of Yahoos Star Search.”
When Feng Xiaogang finished speaking, the audience cheered loudly. The program team backstage was miserable, and Liu Chuang, who was on stage, looked ashen.
The rest was simple. It was still the voting session between the netizens and the live audience.
In the end, Liu Chuang received 23190 votes.
Zhao Liying's votes were ten times higher than Liu Chuang's. 296289 votes.
Everyone understood in their hearts-Zhao Liying, a girl who came from an ordinary family, after suffering for nearly three months, finally got what she wanted and won the championship of the yahoo search. What awaited her was a bright future.
