Role

"What's going on with you? Tell me the truth." He Enmin asked as she found a place to sit down.

"I just ended my contract with the company," Song Qianming answered honestly.

"Didn't you sign the contract for five years? It's not time yet, is it?"

"Because of what happened to my daughter, they felt that I would implicate them if I continued to stay in that group. In order to make me quit, they made me terminate the contract early," he explained patiently.

"It's good that you took my words to heart and didn't sign a longer contract. Otherwise, who would give you a chance after ten years? But what's with the child?"

"Her name is You Huan, and she's indeed my daughter. She was an accident. I didn't expect her mother to give birth to her. It was only when she was about to pass away that she contacted the media to find me."

"It's good that you're not the one who betrayed her. Now, the child is with you?"

"Yes, I didn't want to trouble you, but I'm not alone now. I have a daughter to raise, so..." he scratched his head in embarrassment. "Teacher, you can scold me if you want. I was too ignorant in the past. In the future, I just want to be down-to-earth."

He Enmin glared at him. "You're not that stupid after all. You knew to come back to me. You were one of the few people I had the highest hopes for. Now, even those who were not as good as you have made a name for themselves. Shen Yuting, who had the same qualifications as you, now has two big drama series in his hands. He's ready to step into the front line. You're really driving me crazy."

"Teacher, I promise that I won't be muddleheaded in the future. After all, I've suffered such a huge loss. I really understand what path is best for me in the future. Please help me." He used the same method he used on his brother in his previous life to deal with He Enmin, which made the old man angry yet feel pity for him.

"You!" She tapped Song Qianming's forehead. "As the saying goes, a fall into a pit, a gain in your wit. After such a huge fall, you're much more cunning now."

"Teacher, you don't like it?"

"In this industry, you have to be more smooth. If you succeeded from the beginning, although I would be proud of you, I would definitely be worried as well. But since you've experienced hardships earlier on, in the future, I'll be more at ease and less worried about you."

"Teacher, don't worry. I will definitely not taint your reputation in the future."

"As long as you live well, I don't care about fame. But if you go out to film, will anyone take care of your child?"

"I've hired a nanny for the time being, but if I'm going out of town to film, I'll take her with me. Don't worry, teacher, I'll take care of both my work and Youhuan."

He Enmin paused for a moment before nodding. "That's what you should do. She had just arrived at your side, so you should spend more time her. However, you have to be mentally prepared. You're not popular now and you've just experienced all this. Others might not give you a good role."

"As long as there's a show to act in, I'm not picky. I'm not qualified to be picky anyway."

"Don't belittle yourself. Whether it's your looks or professional knowledge, you're outstanding. You haven't acted in a few years, have you?"

"I definitely won't embarrass you, teacher."

"Then go back and wait for my news. I'll call you again if there's anything."

"Thank you, teacher." Song Qianming stood up and bowed deeply.

"You don't have to be so polite with me. The next time you come, remember to bring your daughter along for me to see."

"Yes, I will."

Song Qianming didn't stay idle after he returned. He watched the performance of the characters in the movie over and over again, and then performed it to the mirror.

No one practiced lines with him, so he acted in two or even three roles. His lines and acting skills improved so fast that even his neighbors noticed.

One day, when Song Qianming was acting out a scene of an argument, the neighbors almost called the police. It was clear that his lines were amazing.

"I knew I was a genius!" He looked at himself in the mirror proudly and then flicked his hair.

In the beginning, he had chosen to enter the entertainment industry to fulfill his original body's wish and to support his family and become famous so that his royal brother could find him. But now, he had really fallen in love with acting.

The feeling of being immersed in each character was too wonderful. It was as if he was experiencing someone else's life.

"Daddy is the best!" Youhuan watched from the beginning to the end, and then couldn't help but clap excitedly.

"Youhuan is the best too. Your face has become round again. It's great." He couldn't help but kiss his daughter's little face.

"But everyone says that it's not good to gain weight," Youhuan said worriedly, holding her face.

"Who said so?" Song Qianming frowned. "The person who said that really has no taste. Children should be round to be cute."

"It's okay. I don't care what others say. As long as daddy likes it, it's fine," little Youhuan said sweetly.

"Yes, daddy likes our Youhuan fair and chubby. We have to eat well every day, okay?"

"I know."

Song Qianming, who had always loved his image, was completely unaware of the problem with his own aesthetics. He didn't even realize what kind of idea he had promoted to his daughter, so much so that when she grew up, she was constantly distressed by her figure.

Song Qianming studied at home for another three days, and finally, his teacher called.

"It's a 1990s drama. There aren't many scenes. Old Qian gave you the role of a conservative young master who has been troubled by progressive ideals. He's the male lead's brother. He might not even have many lines, and in the end, he was killed by the enemy in an explosion while protecting the male lead. If you don't mind, you can give it a try."

"Why would I dislike it? Moreover, it's elder Qian's movie." Song Qianming was ecstatic. He had thought that it would be good enough to have a supporting role in a small web drama, but he didn't expect it to be elder Qian's movie.

As long as they were in the industry, there was no one who didn't know elder Qian. This was because although the box office sales of elder Qian's movies were not necessarily high, their reputations were absolutely positive. Some of the movies that were produced by him were even highly valued by the country.

Therefore, regardless of whether actors were big or small, they all hoped to play a role in elder Qian's movie. Even if it was a supporting role, it was fine because as long as the film was produced, it represented good reputation.

"Don't be happy too early. Old Qian only said that he's giving you a chance to audition. It's up to you to get this role."

Song Qianming took a deep breath. "Teacher, don't worry. I'll make good use of this opportunity."

After hanging up the phone, he couldn't help but laugh. After all, this might be his first job in this world. If he could succeed in the audition, it would mean that he really had the ability to survive in this world.

"Daddy is so awesome!" Youhuan was also very happy for him.

"When daddy earns a lot of money, I'll give us a better life," he said with great ambition.

"When I grow up, I'll also make a lot of money for daddy," Youhuan said, imitating him.

Song Qianming laughed heartily, "My good daughter is so filial. Daddy will be waiting then."

He said that, but in his heart, he was thinking that he should be the one earning money. His daughter only needed to enjoy herself.
