Chapter 55: Some news made me laugh as I read it
When I woke up in the morning, I received a message from Yu Qing. The popularity of "Night Walker" continued to rise, and many variety shows had invited it. The highly-watched Su He was also on the program list.
"Director... you know I have to deliver food, so I don't have time to record the show..."
"Su He, you don't know how to cherish this opportunity that so many people would fight for..."
"No, no, no... Director, you misunderstood me. In your case, you have to pay more!"
Add money? Yu Qing was confused. What about the situation? As an artist who is not even an 18th-tier artist, do you have the right to talk about money? It's a blessing to be able to appear on the show for free. How dare you ask for money!
Strictly speaking, Su He is now just an extra. He has no company and no agent. If he wants to continue to climb up, he may have to spend money. Many small artists spend huge amounts of money just to appear on variety shows.
"How much do you want?" Yu Qing was participating in the program with important characters from the entire crew, which was considered a resource exchange with the program team. All expenses were borne by the crew.
"Two thousand yuan." Su He thought for a while and replied. He could earn about a thousand yuan by delivering food for a day. He couldn't lose money by delaying for a day.
"Okay, come to the New Starlight Studios at one o'clock in the afternoon. The show will start recording at three o'clock. You still need to put on makeup and rehearse the script. Don't be late."
"Okay, Director!"
After replying to the message, Su He opened the takeaway backend and started taking orders online.
"Ding, you have a new takeaway order, please process it in time."
There were few orders in the morning. After Su He finished delivering the morning rush hour deliveries, he found a breakfast shop to eat noodles while watching short videos on his phone.
The serial murder case was solved, but the impact was wide-ranging. Information about the murderer Liao Fan was also dug up by reporters. He was once a prominent figure in the Capital People's Hospital and had saved hundreds of lives.
The past between Liao Fan and the dean Ma Yihong was also revealed by insiders, and netizens began to support Liao Fan overwhelmingly. However, Liao Fan's mistakes were not limited to these. Later, he also killed two innocent women.
The entertainment industry was also very lively. The host Zhang Dada was brutally murdered. The process of his death was enough to support a horror movie, and netizens expressed their condolences.
"Even if everyone in the world hates Zhang Dada, I will still stand on the side of the world..."
"Some news makes me laugh..."
Su He did not care about the comments of netizens. Everyone has different pursuits in life. When a person dies, it is like a light goes out, and everything becomes empty. After a period of time, all the people involved in this case will gradually be forgotten and disappear into thin air.
After breakfast, Su He continued to deliver the takeout. It rained heavily yesterday, and today was a sunny day. By the time he finished delivering the takeout at almost 1 p.m., Su He was soaked all over.
He still had one last takeaway in his hand, which happened to be delivered to the New Starlight Film and Television Park.
"Hey, hey, hey... take-out can't be delivered in, let someone come out to get it..." The security guard at the door stopped Su He.
"Hello, Ms. Deng, your takeaway has arrived, but the security guard won't let you in... Could you please come out and get it..."
"Give the phone to the security guard..."
Su He walked in successfully. It was his first time in the film and television park. It was very big and he asked several people before he found the way. However, at the door of the dressing room, he was stopped by the security guard again.
"Su He, why are you here just now? Hurry up... go change your clothes first. You are sweating all over, so go take a shower first!" Yu Qing came over from behind and pulled Su He into the dressing room.
"Director, wait, I still have a takeaway that I haven't delivered yet..." Su He called Miss Deng. In the corner, Li Yifeng was putting on makeup. Next to him stood a woman, Deng Shu, his agent.
"You delivery guy, stop hitting me. What are you standing there for? Bring it to me!"
Deng Shu shouted loudly, Su He walked over and said, "Here's your takeaway, I wish you a happy meal!"
Su He?
Li Yifeng turned his head and looked at Su He, smiling: "Are you really delivering food? I thought you were joking!"
Su He smiled, said nothing, and turned to take a shower and change clothes.
As soon as Su He left, Li Yifeng's expression changed instantly and he said coldly: "I don't want to eat it anymore, just throw it away!"
"I'll give him a bad review..." Deng Shu picked up the takeaway bag and threw it directly into the trash can.
After taking a shower, Su He changed into the clothes prepared for him by the program crew, which were the clothes worn by the rich second generation in the TV series. The makeup artist of the crew put on makeup for him.
Yu Qing gave a script to Su He and asked him to familiarize himself with it as soon as possible.
Su He was flipping through the script. This variety show was called "Ace vs. Ace". It had two comedy stars and two entertainment stars as permanent members, and Su He and his friends were invited guests, interacting and playing various games together.
Before, Yu Qing asked Su He what talents he had, and he casually said: I can cook a little, sing a little, and do a little calligraphy.
Su He didn't dare to talk about wound stitching and flying a plane. He couldn't perform the process of stitching a wound and flying a plane in front of others on the spot!
The script includes segments of him singing and performing calligraphy, but there is a parenthesis behind it saying: To be determined.
From now on, the cameras were aimed at Su He. As an extra, few people knew him, and even the host didn't know how to introduce him.
The program team found a lot of videos about Su He on the Internet, which filled in his background introduction.
If Director Yu Qing hadn't strongly recommended Su He, he would not have been qualified to participate in the show at all. You have to know that there are only four guest spots, excluding the male and female protagonists and the director, and the only remaining spot will definitely be given to a famous supporting actor.
Yu Qing feels a lot of pressure to let Su He take the role, but with Su He's amazing acting skills, he will surely become a big hit in time.
In the backcourt, Li Yifeng and Song Yi were already ready , and Yu Qing walked over with Su He.
The host Shen Tao was introducing the roles played by the four permanent members. There was laughter and joy at the scene. Then, amid exclamations, the door in front of Su He opened, and Li Yifeng, Song Yi, Yu Qing and Su He walked slowly towards the stage.
Shen Tao smiled and said, "The four people who came today are incredible. In the highly anticipated drug-trafficking suspense web drama "Night Walker", our old friend Li Yifeng plays two roles. The battle between good and evil has whetted the appetite of the audience."
Li Yifeng greeted the camera: "Hello everyone, I am Li Yifeng. In this drama, I play a drug enforcement policeman who has to live in the abyss facing the sun for his faith. I hope to show you a different me."
After Li Yifeng finished speaking, Shen Tao continued to introduce: "The heroine is also an old friend of ours. She has a rich acting career. Under the uncertain light and shadow, it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false. What will be her ending?"
The camera turned to Song Yi, and she smiled and said, "Hello everyone, I am Song Yi, and I am here on this stage again. Welcome everyone to join this dark night script-killing show..."
After the introduction of the male and female protagonists, when it was director Yu Qing's turn, the host's words were brief: "Director Yu Qing, what do you want to say to our audience about this play?"
Yu Qing held the microphone and said: "A dark night walker walks at the junction of light and darkness, with his back to the light and facing the darkness. In the process of pursuing the truth, there is a beam of light that questions justice..."
Soon it was Su He's turn. The host Shen Tao said, "Today, we have a new friend on Ace vs Ace. Let's get to know him!"
"Hello everyone, my name is Su He."
