Chapter 5: selection

Not only the director, the room was shocked.

What is the top bowl, the kind of acrobatics you saw as a child?

Decades ago the network is not developed, leisure time people will choose to go to the theater to watch opera, watch acrobatics. But now it's 2020, there will be this?

And the young man standing in front of him is only a few dozen or twenty years old, from where to learn acrobatics, not to attract attention to blindly say it?

When the director didn't say anything, Xingchen Qi asked, "Can I start the show now?"

"Please." Without waiting for the director to say anything, Ye Bai answered for him.

Acrobatics is not only skill, but also requires a balance of attention and beauty.

Xingchen Qi took off her shoes, took a step back on her left leg and placed a stack of bowls on top of her head. Turn on a piece of classical music, lean down slightly, and salute the crowd in the conference room.

A salute finished, he suddenly raised his hand, the porcelain bowl out of hand, did not wait for the crowd to react, has landed steadily in the head of the bowl stack.

The whole process of action without adjusting the position to pick up the action, as if just throwing a thing, it fell in the desired location. Whether an insider or an outsider, you can see from this fluid action, he is not to attract attention to learn now, absolutely have a very deep merit!

As the rhythm of the music picked up, he danced classically while tossing a few bowls over his head, dancing in a flamboyant manner. Then he leaned forward and stretched his left leg backwards and upwards to make a "sea-gazing" pose.

The moment the next heavy drumbeat arrived, he threw a bowl backwards. And here comes the magic - the bowl, landing within an inch of his life!

The second, the third, the fourth ...... Each drum beat he threw a bowl, and each bowl landed in the bowl pile without fail. The crowd was so dazzled that they forgot to even applaud.

After the song, Xingchen Qi, whose head and left foot were bowls, was nailed to the spot like a nail, his face not red and breathless, with a smile at the end of his eyes and eyebrows, nodding his head in front of him.

"...... Crap," the producer couldn't help but burst out, "this kid is too good. Xiao Liu, go help him take the bowl down."

"Pop, pop, pop--"

The crowd then slowed down, the director led the way and a round of applause rang out in the room.

Xingchen Qi bowed and said thanks, said nothing, and did not bother to measure the director's face. There are still people waiting behind, he does not want to delay other artists, hurry to pack up the bowl to run out.

Before running a few steps, someone behind him called him: " Xingchen Qi, come back."

Is Ye Bai, Xingchen Qi back.

"...... The shoes aren't on." Ye Bai pointed to his feet.

"Oh oh," the young man who was swimming in the water just now then showed some shyness, "Thank you for reminding me."

.

Xingchen Qi is not very satisfied with the performance just now.

Acrobatic requirements for body balance, flexibility is very high, this body and the reality of a certain gap between him, can only choose more basic programs, placed in the acrobatic troupe, is the most simple, not at all on stage, but the time is urgent, can only cope with first.

Qing Han had been waiting outside, and when she saw him coming out, she pulled him towards the elevator shaft, "Star, did you play well, was the director satisfied with you?"

"I can't tell if I'm satisfied or not, I played kind of normal."

"Even if you play well, what can you do," Yu Zhou said, "with your ability, you can't be selected by the show?"

Yu Zhou performed before Qing Han and Xingchen Qi, should have reasonably gone home. The company will stay, eight out of ten is a grudge Xingchen Qi interrupt him to please Yuji Qi, purposely waiting here to say cool words.

Xingchen Qi was exasperated by Yu Zhou's childish behavior and wanted to laugh: "I can't, can you, a white boy who relies on women to find connections,?"

Yu Zhou couldn't figure out how this person, who was "Brother Yu" long and "Brother Yu" short not long ago, had suddenly changed his face. The first time I saw him, I was so surprised.

"Your request is quite unique," Xingchen Qi said, deliberately provoking Yu Zhou, "Okay, then I'll say it again. Whether I have the ability to be chosen or not, at least I'm competing fairly with everyone, not like you, who's trying to trick your girlfriend into helping you get through."

"......" Yu Zhou's angry mouth, "Poor bastards who can't find a backer are the only ones willing to mention fair competition, who doesn't look at background in the circle now? I can find people to help, that's my ability!"

Hearing the commotion, the rest of the people in the corridor curiously look over, with wonderful expressions on their faces, some watching the show, some gloating, some upset with Yu Zhou or Xingchen Qi for a long time, and wanting them to disappear as soon as they hit the Earth.

Only no one felt bad for Yu Zhou's words.

The reality is that society is like this, laughing at the poor, not the prostitutes. Live well is the ability, no one cares how you "live well".

Yu Zhou, a model by trade, was originally signed to Noah through Yuji Qi, a small company. Without Yuji Qi's help, he would never have been able to get a spot on Poor Travels. Xingchen Qi didn't bother to argue with him, pressed the elevator, and continued to get angry: "I can't choose where I come from, but I can choose where I go from here, so I'm sorry I can't agree with you."

"You, you ......." Yu Zhou's face is blue, "you" for half a day but not "you" out of the second half of the sentence, can not find words to refute.

Seeing more and more onlookers, he knew that he was about to lose face, his head was hot, not caring about the video or video, lifting his fist to Xingchen Qi!

Xingchen Qi did not avoid, not even shouting, so quietly waiting for him to hit himself. Before his fist hit his face, a tall shadow suddenly flashed in front of him.

-- Ye Bai grabbed Yu Zhou's wrist and said in a cold voice: "Have you eaten all the company's rules?"

After saying that, he shrugged off Yu Zhou and led his assistant into the elevator that happened to open.

Xingchen Qi didn't expect the male lead to take up for him and froze in place.

"...... What a daze."

Ye Bai frowned and whispered, "You can't come up here."

.

Xingchen Qi has seen the same frowning expression on the face of her love interest Ye Bai many times.

Ye Bai is an impatient man - and for a long time, the media and black fans have seized on this point, making a lot of rumors about him playing big names and blackfacing his fans, with all sorts of claims.

Only his fan "Night Sky" knows that if Ye Bai's tenderness has two points, then one point is given to his love of dance and music, and the other point is given to "Night Sky" in full.

He doesn't even treat himself as well as he treats his fans.

Yu Zhou was caught by Ye Bai for violating the company's rules, his face was red and black, and he immediately fled down the fire escape.

Xingchen Qi walked into the elevator in a daze, and only when he reached the sixth floor did he realize that he hadn't said thank you, and hurriedly patched, "Thank you, senior."

"It's okay, remember to wear shoes after the next performance."

"...... Well, I will." Xingchen Qi's voice was as thin as a mosquito.

"And--" Ye Bai paused, "If someone does it with you again, don't move a muscle, I won't necessarily be around next time."

"...... Well," Xingchen Qi touched the tip of her ear which was a little hot, "I know."

In fact, he just deliberately did not hide, if Yu Zhou really dare to hit him, he can take the video to Yuji Qi, so Yuji Qi see the true face of the scum.

But it's okay to lose this chance, we can wait for another time. Xingchen Qi returned to the practice room, and the image of Ye Bai frowning kept flashing before her eyes.

As the saying goes, it is difficult to paint the skin of a tiger, and when describing a particular character with words, it is easy to outline the appearance, but difficult to show the temperament.

The original article he read, throughout the description of the male lead and supporting characters how much they spoil the female lead. The men were all instrumental, and the author barely described the details of the male lead.

So ...... The male lead and the real Ye Bai, why are they so similar?

.

When I came home in the evening, Yunxiao Qi was reading papers in the living room. Besides him, there is also Yuji Qi who keeps dozing off with a mask on.

"Back to the stars," Yunxiao Qi said, "you just got out of the hospital, don't be too tired lately, go to sleep."

"Wait!" When he heard his brother's name, Yuji Qi got up from the couch with a swish of his head, "Star, you're in the audition for that variety show too?"

"Yes, I'm in."

"You," Yuji Qi stood on tiptoe and nodded his forehead, "Why didn't you tell Big Brother if you wanted to be on the show? I know the boss of McMansion TV, and I know the daughter of the producer, so why go through all the trouble to get an interview?"

Her words sounded like a scolding, but her tone was gentle and full of heartache. Xingchen Qi was a little uncomfortable and took a step back, "I want to feel it myself."

The original owner gave a death warrant forbidding his family to help him without permission and expose his identity, which is why Yuji Qi only hung up on Yu Zhou and did not tell Yu Zhou that he was cursing his brother-in-law.

"Okay, then you must let us know if you need anything oh."

Fearing that his brother would do something deviant again, Yuji Qi did not dare to say more and sighed.

She then noticed that Xingchen Qi had gone off somewhere and her clothes were dusty, and said, "Which car did you drive back in?

"Didn't drive, I took the bus back."

"Didn't drive!" Yuji Qi and Yunxiao Qi, both shocked, looked at each other, then simultaneously pulled out their cell phones and sent messages to car dealers they knew.

Xingchen Qi does not know what they want, when no one cares he rushed to escape to his room.

After washing up, he slumped on the bed, opened the microblogging that he hadn't read all day, and went on the small one first.

All the live fans bought were in place, in addition to seven fans who could tell from their ids that they were Night Sky followed him, and three of them retweeted the tweets he broke.

Well, it's okay, it's better than no splash at all.

He gladly cut to the big one, and surprisingly, more than forty replies came out under that picture of his big one!

There are those who ask him where he has been for most of the year; those who wonder if he has been kidnapped and told to wink; those who guess if he is finally going to come out and move around;

The one with the most likes is a simple sentence:

[It's good that you're back, we're always there]

Yesterday he chose to post a selfie in order to build up his popularity. Only when the popularity comes up, he can get closer to the male and female lead.

From the time he wore the book until now, all he could think about was how to survive and how to make the next move to save his life. Seeing this sentence, he suddenly realized that he was now more than just himself.

He is still a little-known artist.

He is the idol of dozens of young girls.

As he likes Ye Bai, those young girls, too, are liking him.

Xingchen Qi rubbed his sore nose and replied to the forty or so comments one by one. I got my fingers all stiff, and my phone was ringing.

It was Lanxin Du on the phone, sounding surprised and amazed: "Yo, you've stepped on your luck, you've actually been selected by the show!"
