Chapter 14

<p>[Accidental Mark Chapter 14]<br/><br/>After coming out of the office, Zhou Yan went to the logistics department to get the key, and took Cheng Xia to the artist apartment arranged by Tianxuan to get familiar with the environment.<br/><br/>The Artist Apartment is located diagonally opposite to Tianxuan Building. The community is well managed, and no entry card is allowed to enter. The underground of the apartment building is a large parking lot with east and west entrances, which is difficult to be blocked by paparazzi. Living here, the privacy and safety of artists can be adequately protected.<br/><br/>Cheng Xia took the elevator upstairs with his agent.<br/><br/>The room he allocated was 3303. A 60-square-meter single apartment. Although the sparrow is small and complete, it has a separate bathroom and kitchen utensils. A small cloakroom is intimately designed next to the bedroom. The reception room has a soft fabric sofa and a glass coffee table, the TV background wall is painted with simple latex paint, an LCD TV is hung, and there is a row of bookshelves next to it.<br/><br/>The layout of the apartment is simple and warm. Cheng Xia walked around the house and liked the environment very much.<br/><br/>Zhou Yan handed him the community access card and the room key, and said, "Cheng Xia, you will live here in the future. Go back and pack your luggage and move in as soon as possible."<br/><br/>Cheng Xia nodded: "Okay. Sister Yan has worked so hard, I'll go back and pack things this afternoon!"<br/><br/>"Well, call if you have something to do."<br/><br/>Zhou Yan drove Cheng Xia home. Cheng Xia hurriedly packed up his luggage when he got home. His parents knew that the company had arranged an artist apartment for him, and they also helped him clean up. That night Jiang Qiong also cooked a sumptuous meal to bid farewell to her son. The next morning, his father drove the car to help Cheng Xia move.<br/><br/>Cheng Xia doesn't have many things, only a box of clothes, toiletries and some sports car models.<br/><br/>The two sent Cheng Xia to the apartment building. Cheng Xia excitedly took his parents on a "single apartment one-day tour", and swiftly placed all the sports car models he had collected for many years on the wooden stand next to the TV.<br/><br/>Seeing that the apartment is in good condition, the couple finally feel relieved.<br/><br/>Cheng Yiming came to the floor-to-ceiling window, looked at the building diagonally opposite, and asked, "Is the Tianxuan Building opposite?"<br/><br/>Cheng Xia walked to his father's side and said with a smile: "Yes. The headquarters of our company is very impressive, right?"<br/><br/>Cheng Yiming said solemnly: "Tianxuan is indeed a powerful brokerage company, but if you sign Tianxuan, it doesn't mean that you can soar into the sky. You should be down-to-earth and work hard step by step..."<br/><br/>Jiang Qiong couldn't help interrupting him: "It's alright, you start preaching again, Cheng Xia's ears are about to grow calluses."<br/><br/>Cheng Xia didn't bother with his father's various reasons, because he knew that as he moved into the artist's apartment and officially started his career as an actor, the chances of seeing his parents would become less and less in the future.<br/><br/>He took a deep breath, adjusted his expression, and walked over and embraced his parents' shoulders with a bright smile: "Parents don't worry, I will work hard. Maybe you will see me on TV in a while!"<br/><br/>Jiang Qiong couldn't help laughing: "You can really speak big words, how can you see you on TV in a few days? You are just a newcomer!" She patted her son on the shoulder: "Take care of yourself and have time Just call home."<br/><br/>Cheng Xia did not say directly that he would participate in Chen Yijun's MV shooting. After saying goodbye to his parents, he sat on the bedside and sent a message to Zhou Yan to report: "Sister Yan, I have moved into the apartment."<br/><br/>Zhou Yan quickly replied: "Okay, come to Tianxuan's office at 3 o'clock in the afternoon to find me."<br/><br/>***<br/><br/>At three in the afternoon, Cheng Xia appeared in Zhou Yan's office on time. There were still several people in the office, all of whom looked so face-to-face. Cheng Xia smiled politely at the strangers and walked over to say hello to Zhou Yan: "Sister Yan."<br/><br/>Zhou Yan nodded, got up and walked in front of several young people and said, "You four are all newcomers signed by Tianxuan at the same time. Let's get to know each other first."<br/><br/>I had heard before that Zhou Yan would bring four newcomers at the same time after the grouping. Cheng Xia saw them for the first time today and couldn't help but curiously looked at these peers around him.<br/><br/>One of the men who was taller than 185cm grew up to be sunny and handsome, but Cheng Xia had seen too many handsome guys in the film school, and he didn't feel much about this handsome Alpha. Speaking of looks, Cheng Xia believes that President Pei is the most handsome of Alpha he has seen so far.<br/><br/>Alpha's self-introduction brought Cheng Xia back to reality: "Hello everyone, my name is Zhou Jiawen, and I am a junior in the Acting Department of the School of Drama. I have played the male third of "For You" and the male second of "Little Corner". , The male third of "The Ring of Midnight"..."<br/><br/>He said a lot of drama titles, Cheng Xia had never heard of them, obviously they were all web dramas with no splashes. But for newcomers, it is normal for newcomers to make their debut from low-cost online dramas and have a familiar face.<br/><br/>Immediately afterwards, another thin girl stood up. The girl's eyes were cold, and her voice also showed a sense of alienation when she spoke: "My name is Xue Ling, a student of the film school, and I have played "The Wind Rises" and "The World of Heroes" "The female third in two costume dramas."<br/><br/>The third is a boy with a height of about 175. He has a cute baby face and a clear voice when he speaks: "My name is Qi Xiaotian. I am a freshman at the Film School. I have acted in many TV dramas as the protagonist's teenage and childhood images. By the way, I am an Omega, 18 years old this year, and just signed with Tianxuan some time ago."<br/><br/>Is this a child star debut? No wonder it looks familiar.<br/><br/>When it was Cheng Xia's turn, he stepped forward and said frankly: "My name is Cheng Xia. I am 18 years old this year. I am a freshman in the Acting Department of the Film Academy. I don't have any official works yet. I'm glad to meet you."<br/><br/>He said this paragraph frankly, but when the three of them heard him "no work", their expressions were obviously not very enthusiastic.<br/><br/>Cheng Xia didn't mind either. This is the case in the entertainment industry. Countless famous celebrities support it. The unnamed little transparent can only provide food and clothing at the bottom. No one wants to waste too much time on the little transparent.<br/><br/>He is now a little transparent.<br/><br/>The three men led by Sister Yan actually compete with him. Under the same agent, once the resources are allocated, whoever takes first and whoever takes it later, it is difficult to achieve a good bowl of water. Cheng Xia will not be so stupid as to be a "good buddy" with the same group of artists, as long as she is able to live on the surface and don't stumble behind her back.<br/><br/>After the four people introduced themselves, Zhou Yan distributed the copied materials to everyone: "This is the campus drama that President Pei will invest in next. The opportunity is given to all the artists in our C group. For newcomers, they can perform one. The protagonist or important supporting role of the play is an extremely rare opportunity. Go back and read these materials carefully. It is best to be familiar with them."<br/><br/>"Also, I have chosen four assistants for you. In the future, you will go to the studio to shoot, arrange nanny cars, book air tickets and meals, etc. If you have any questions, you will find your assistant, and if the assistant can't solve it, you will find me again."<br/><br/>She nodded to the person behind her, and the four assistants went to say hello to the artist.<br/><br/>The one who came to Cheng Xia was a little sister Beta, about 25 years old, and she smiled heartily: "Hello Cheng Xia, just call me sister Rong. I have been an assistant for several years, and you can contact me directly if you have any questions in life. Including three meals a day, I can also go to your place and cook it for you myself."<br/><br/>Cheng Xia showed her a sincere smile: "Okay, Sister Rong!"<br/><br/>Zhou Yan and other assistants and the artists knew each other, so they patted their hands and concluded: "The most important thing for the next month is to thoroughly understand the information I gave you, carefully consider the key roles, and participate in the audition in the best state. ! In this audition, the director and screenwriter will come in person, and everyone will have equal opportunities. I hope you will perform well and try to get a suitable role, understand?"<br/><br/>The four people said in unison: "Understand!"<br/><br/>Zhou Yan nodded: "Go back, I will call you after the audition time is set."<br/><br/>The four people left the office one after another.<br/><br/>Qi Xiaotian enthusiastically took the initiative to add three friends, and Cheng Xia added him out of politeness. After Qi Xiaotian was added, the other two would naturally be added, otherwise it would be too embarrassing. So, on the surface, everyone happily scanned each other's QR codes and added WeChat, and made a few polite sentences.<br/><br/>Walking out of the Tianxuan Building, the other three returned to the artist's apartment together. Cheng Xia thought for a while and turned and walked in another direction.<br/><br/>Ten minutes later, he came to a bookstore at the intersection.<br/><br/>This bookstore is decorated in a warm and elegant style, and it sells novels and comics popular among young people. Cheng Xia walked to the counter and asked politely: "Hello, do you have the novel "Folding Paper"?"<br/><br/>The girl at the counter smiled gently: "Yes. It's the popular novel section at the corner in front."<br/><br/>Cheng Xia walked around the corner and saw a large stack of new books "Folding Paper" in the "Hot Novel Zone". The cover of the novel was a picture of two protagonists playing an origami game in the classroom together. Both of them in school uniforms had their faces With a smile. Sunlight came in from the side window, shining on the faces of the two protagonists. The warm light made people unable to help but recall the pure and beautiful student days.<br/><br/>Cheng Xia took two books and walked to the stage and paid.<br/><br/>One is for collection, the other is for viewing.<br/><br/>The information Zhou Yan gave him is the photocopy of the copy given by Mr. Pei, which includes a detailed outline of the story and biographies of the characters, enough to understand what the campus novel is about—however, this information is compiled by the Copyright Department. For President Pei.<br/><br/>President Pei is so busy that it is impossible to turn over every novel bought by the copyright group page by page. As the boss, he can only look at the plot outline and character set to understand which book is more worth investing in.<br/><br/>But as an actor, it's not enough to just look at this.<br/><br/>Only after reading the full text of the novel or the script can we understand the character and heart of the character more accurately, and then it is possible to act the character alive.<br/><br/>Currently, the script adaptation has not yet come out, Cheng Xia decided to read the original work a few times.<br/><br/>This opportunity is rare, he must grasp it.<br/><br/>The teenager returned to the apartment with two brand new unopened books enthusiastically. He opened the cover and was about to read it carefully, but the phone suddenly turned on and an unread message appeared on the screen——<br/><br/>"Xia Cheng, I'm your sister Yijun. The director of the MV has already contacted. I will ask the babysitter to pick you up at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. The designer will help you with the makeup and hair, and the clothes are also provided by the sponsor. Just bring it by yourself! See you tomorrow!"<br/><br/>"..." Cheng Xia was a little dazed.<br/><br/>Are you ready to shoot so soon? Sister, are you too resolute?</p>
