After Entering a Book, He Just Wants to be a Flower Vase

The rain in the mountains has been pattering all day. After the lunch break, the guests played a few small games in the house and spent a very idle day.

In the early morning of the next day, after breakfast, Jiang Dao and Chu Yinlong left Taoyuan Residence, went back to the town to meet their assistants, and went to the airport together.

The departure time of the two flights was about the same. Before boarding the plane, Chu Yinlong looked at Jiang Dao, hesitating to speak.In the end, he still didn't say anything, he lowered his head and turned on the phone silently, not knowing who to send the message to.

He suddenly became alone, but Jiang Dao didn't feel uncomfortable in the slightest.

According to the precautions for several trips, he avoided the crowd and boarded the plane through the VIP channel. He found the seat according to the license plate with ease, without taking off his sunglasses, nestled in the spacious seat of the business class, and began to doze off.

An hour and a half later, the plane landed smoothly and arrived in Linshi.

There was no corridor bridge on this flight, Jiang Dao boarded the VIP shuttle bus with other passengers in the business class, and stood in the corner with restrained demeanor, as if disappearing, unobtrusive at all.

Until he walked out of the passage and found Zhu Yao who was waiting not far away, Zhu Yao looked at him in shock: "How did you become like this?"

Jiang Dao tore some of his sunglasses off, and looked at Zhu Yao through the gap on the top edge: "What is it like?"

Zhu Yao frowned: "The clothes are wrinkled like this... why don't you take care of your hair? Tsk, you don't even shave your beard, and you lost your razor?"

Jiang Dao replied with a smile: "I didn't lose it, I got up late in the morning, and I didn't bother to catch the plane."

Zhu Yao sighed, his face full of exhaustion: "Go to the bathroom to shave your beard, comb your hair, and change your clothes. Don't pay attention to this audition. Li Cheng is very good at picking actors. Don't think that you will be selected because you are good-looking. ...Why do I think you are gaining weight again? Have you weighed yourself these two days?"

Jiang Dao stretched his waist: "Don't worry, you won't gain weight... But Sister Haitang's cooking is really delicious, I can eat three bowls of rice every day!"

Zhu Yao choked and clutched his chest for a long time, unable to recover.

Jiang Dao was happy: "I'm lying to you, there's not so much food for me over there."

Before Zhu Yao breathed a sigh of relief, Jiang Dao added: "But the noodles are enough, three bowls are enough."

Zhu Yao: ...

As instructed, Jiang Dao went to the bathroom to shave, combed his hair casually, and came out in a neat and clean shirt.After getting into the car Zhu Yao rented, he suddenly remembered something and asked, "Do you know Li Cheng?"

"A very young director. Most of the directors are online dramas, but there are also two movies that have become stars." Zhu Yao said casually while driving, "He had works with good ratings the year before last and last year. This time, "" "Peach Demon" is written by the same author as last year's original work, the company is very optimistic, and I also think it has a bright future..."

"I'm not talking about that," Jiang Dao interrupted him, "I mean, what does he like and dislike, does he have any hobbies?"

Zhu Yao glanced at Jiang Dao.

"You still pay attention to these?" He raised his hand and pushed his glasses, "I thought you made up your mind to quit the industry and didn't want this opportunity. Why do you still care about the director's preferences?"

Judging from Zhu Yao's expression, he probably really doesn't know Li Cheng's character.

Jiang Dao had some relief in his heart.

But... the negative news about Li Cheng is just Chu Yinlong's one-sided opinion. He has to meet him to confirm what kind of character this person is.

"If you have to talk about hobbies," Zhu Yao thought for a while, then said, "He likes wine, and he seems to have spent a lot of money to collect a few good bottles."

At the end, he chuckled lightly: "You, don't even think about taking these crooked paths, fight with your strength, if you can get up, you can get up, if you can't get up, just wait for another chance, and you won't be exposed to scandal in the future."

Ejima shrugged, noncommittal.

By the time the two of them arrived at the movie theater, the morning audition for the crew of "The Peach Demon" was almost over.

Fortunately, Zhu Yao contacted people he knew in advance, and put Jiang Dao in a team, and arranged to be the last one in the morning.

Jiang Dao didn't know who the person he jumped into the afternoon game was, but the other party obviously knew that he had no strength to compete with Galaxy Media, so he didn't show up to argue.

In fact, if Zhu Yao hadn't made his own decision, he wouldn't have cared whether the interview was in the morning or in the afternoon.He hadn't planned to audition seriously at all, and he wasn't nervous at this moment, leaning against the wall with his arms folded, and began to observe the actors around him waiting for the audition.

Not all the artists gathered here are debut artists, there are also some group performers who have been in the film and television city all year round, moving between various crews, trying to find a chance to play a supporting role. Extremely delicate.Based on their looks alone, Jiang Dao dared to say that they were on par with popular idol artists in the entertainment industry today.

But some people are admired by the stars, and some people can only stand here in obscurity, praying that they can get a small supporting role that the former would not even glance at.

The staff pushed open the door of the audition room, instead of calling out his name like before, he walked up to Zhu Yao, bowed his head and said something, and Zhu Yao led Jiang Dao into the door.

Contrary to what Jiang Dao had imagined, the furnishings in this room were very simple, with no scenery, only a whole piece of black velvet curtain hanging down to the ground hung on the wall, and there were two camera seats on the opposite side.

A young man with half-long hair and a short beard sat in the center of the plane, looked at Jiang Dao for a moment, and asked, "Have you read the script?"

Jiang Dao replied honestly: "No."

The man frowned: "Recommended by Galaxy Media?"

Jiang Dao nodded: "Yeah."

Comparing the photos he found on the Internet, Jiang Dao judged that this was Li Cheng.He looked refined and slightly thin. Judging from the small part of the arm exposed by the rolled up cuffs, this man had no strength.

All in all - Li Cheng can't beat him.

So Ejima felt relieved.

"Since you haven't read the script, let's try a section with no lines." Li Cheng looked down at the notebook in his hand and said, "The mission failed and was punished by the Demon Lord, who was punished with [-] lashes, so I developed hatred for the hero. I mean...just this part."

Jiang Dao raised his eyebrows, thought for a while, and walked to the place where the black curtain was spread in the arena.

Then he knelt down without hesitation, frowned, gritted his teeth, and groaned three times—it was exactly the same as a short passage he had seen by accident while listening to an online drama recently, and the performance was very carefree.

Surprisingly, Li Cheng didn't call to stop.

Therefore, Jiang Dao could only continue to whine and pretend to be whipped, his hands clenched into fists, and his eyes narrowed to show that he was "generating hatred".

"Okay." Li Cheng closed the notebook in his hand, crossed his legs, and smiled at Jiang Dao, "The acting was good."

Jiang Dao: ...

This is "good acting"?

That "beggar" played by Chu Yinlong in the game the night before, and that "mother", wouldn't they all be able to become gods?

"Unfortunately, there is still some distance from my requirements for the role." Li Cheng smiled warmly, "But don't worry, the villain has a follower with high martial arts skills, and the appearance rate is not low. I can promise now, As long as you want to play it, that role is yours."

Jiang Dao stood up, looked at Li Cheng seriously, and said nothing.

Li Cheng said: "Okay, let's go back and discuss with your manager first."

Other than that, there are no other unnecessary actions.

Jiang Dao and Zhu Yao left the film and television city and drove to the reserved hotel.

In the car, Jiang Dao told Zhu Yao about Li Cheng's promise. Zhu Yao looked a little disappointed, but quickly recovered his composure: "Alright, let's get used to the small role first, and there will always be a chance to get the leading role in the future."

"Yes." Jiang Dao replied perfunctorily.

But I was thinking in my heart, Chu Yinlong also guessed right in this part, even though he acted extremely bluntly, Li Cheng still gave him the role, and the appearance rate was not low.I just don't know if the purpose of Li Cheng's doing this is exactly what Chu Yinlong said...

Arriving at the hotel, Zhu Yao opened two rooms as usual, and told Jiang Dao to take a good rest and stay in good condition.

Jiang Dao has always been curious: "Since it's just an audition, why do we have to stay for a day? Can't we just go back to Yanshi and wait for news?"

"You thought it was just an audition?" Zhu Yao pushed his glasses and said calmly, "I made an appointment tonight to meet some investors, and Li Cheng is also here. It was originally arranged by the company just in case, although you have already argued I got the role, but I can't refuse it... just take it as a thank you."

"Arranged by the company?" Jiang Dao was thoughtful.

"En." Zhu Yao's voice paused slightly, but finally said expressionlessly, "The company attaches great importance to you, so you should seize the opportunity even more."

Hearing this, Jiang Dao tilted his body lazily and leaned against the elevator wall: "Got it."

As for whether the company's senior executives knew what Li Cheng was like, he had to wait for him to personally contact Li Cheng twice before he could judge.As for the danger... Jiang Dao believes that as long as he is [-]% vigilant, there are not many people in this world who can hurt him.

Back in the room, Jiang Dao was not in the mood to go downstairs to eat for a while, so he ordered room service for lunch.

While eating a sandwich, his phone vibrated, and Chu Yinlong's WeChat message came in: "How's the audition result?"

Jiang Dao raised his eyebrows and replied, "As you expected."

Chu Yinlong: "Did Li Cheng give you the role?"

Ejima: "Well, the villain's entourage, supporting roles, but it seems that there are quite a lot of appearances."

Chu Yinlong didn't reply for a long time.

After Jiang Dao finished his sandwich, he lay on the bed and flipped through online dramas. He had nothing to listen to, so he simply sent a message to Chu Yinlong: "What's the name of your storytelling app? I'll be on it too."

This time Chu Yinlong responded, and sent a screenshot to Jiang Dao, and circled the icons thoughtfully.

A message followed: "So you decided to do this show?"

Ejima: "It hasn't been decided yet."

Jiang Dao: "I have a wine meeting with them tonight. I'll try to see if our company knows about Li Cheng. We'll see the result."

There was another long silence on Chu Yinlong's side.

Jiang Dao downloaded the app, turned to the free popular science articles, plugged in his earphones, and lay down on the bed to take a nap.

Just when he was about to fall asleep, the WeChat push button rang, and Chu Yinlong sent a message:

"Although I really want to advise you not to risk yourself, but since you have made up your mind, let's do it."

"Be careful at the reception, don't trust your manager too much. Be careful what you enter, and don't drink drinks that have left your sight."

"If you are in trouble, you can ask the sponsor Lu Zhengrong, she is my friend and will help you."
