Half past three in the morning.

The chickens are still sleeping.

The lights were lit up in the old and dilapidated small courtyard.

Xu Ning and Bao Qiang endured sleepiness and climbed out of bed, came to the big water tank to brush their teeth and wash their faces.

The other two families are still asleep.

It can be seen how hard the work of the group performance is.

Fortunately, it is summer, and the temperature is neither hot nor cold in the morning, and if it is a few degrees below zero in winter, it is really not a human sin.

After washing, the two went out.

Trotted all the way along the road to the gate of the Beijing Film Studio, passed by a breakfast shop, bought a basket of steamed buns and two cups of soy milk, and the two began to eat while walking.

"I don't know how Bao Qiang persevered in his previous life, he has been waiting at the gate of Beijing Film Studio for several years, and ordinary people really can't do it."

Xu Ning admired Bao Qiang in his heart.

This young man from the countryside went to the capital to live in a dilapidated house and eat steamed buns, and insisted on running a group performance for three years before waiting for an opportunity.

Let's say he's lucky, he also has strength.

said that he has strength, and there are many people who are better than his acting skills.

But over the years, so many group performances, including those actors born in professional classes, 99.99% have not been popular with him.

It's really hard to say about a person's life.

At this time, Baoqiang,

I don't know what his future path will be.

His life is still full of endless confusion.

It has been nearly two years since I came to Beijing in 1999, and my life has not yet reached a turning point.

If it had been someone else, I guess I would have given up a long time ago.

……

Four forty.

The entrance of the North Film Studio.

Before Wu Gang arrived, Xu Ning found a clean road and sat down, opened the system to check the properties.

These days, he keeps picking wool, keeps practicing, and has gained a lot.

[Name: Xu Ning]

[Age: 21 years old]

[Occupation: Special actor (small)]

【Acting Attributes】

Basic Acting Skills – Role Understanding (3.9/Proficient)

……

……

【Skill Attributes】

Shaolin Luohan Boxing (2.5/Beginner)

Xingyi Liuhe Fist (3.1/proficient)

Now there are dozens of various acting attributes in the system, all of which have reached the [entry level], and some have reached the [proficiency level].

It can be said that Xu Ning's current acting skills are not inferior to those of students from colleges and universities such as China Opera and Nortel, and even better than them in some places.

But compared with those old guns, there is still a big gap.

"Come on, at least all of them will be [proficient] acting, and you will be able to control any role when the time comes."

Now this kind of [entry-level] acting skills are not up or down, they belong to the half-level level, and they have no advantages.

"You have to hurry up and run the crew."

After checking and turning off the system, it was okay to be idle left and right, Xu Ning and a large wave of group performance brothers sat at the door and chatted.

Each of these grassroots brothers has a different tragic story, Xu Ning listened to it for a while, and felt that the whole person was in a bad mood.

"Grass, even though I have a miserable life, I still have to sympathize with the suffering of others......"

Not wanting to continue listening, he changed the subject and said something happy, and after a while laughter erupted around him.

The sky is getting brighter, and the eastern sky is white.

Wu Gang's car drove over leisurely.

As always, he has the same style as Guo Degang, and his figure and face are quite similar to Lao Guo...... But it looks like it's a bit underwhelming.

"Martial arts dramas, seventy people, no more than 50 years old."

The front of the bus was instantly blocked, and the black pressure was full of people, waving their hands excitedly, expecting to be selected.

There are more than 150 people gathered at the mouth of Beijing Film Studio, but as long as there are more than 70, the competition is very fierce.

Wu Gang stood at the door of the car, and saw Xu Ning and Wang Baoqiang behind the crowd from afar, and immediately shouted with a smile on his face: "Brother Ning, I have left a good place for you, come quickly." ”

You must know that the group head is equivalent to the landlord's old wealth, and the group performance is the tenant of the landlord's family, and the life of the group performance is held by the group leader.

And Wu Gang, the group leader they are afraid of, actually feels unbelievable to a young group performance at this moment.

Could it be that this person has a big background?

But who will play tricks with a big background?

Wu Gang, who was standing in the car, looked at a group of performers who had no eyesight, and shouted angrily: "Why don't you give way." ”

Turning his head and smiling at Xu Ning again: "Brother Ning, come here, be careful not to crowd." ”

The crowd "cheered" to get out of the way, and Xu Ning walked through the crowd and got into the car as if walking on the red carpet.

Baoqiang, this guy got Xu Ning's face, and he also followed him and got into the car.

After doing all this, Wu just started to order people.

"You, you, and you, get in the car...... You go away, it's too short......"

Wu Gang ordered dozens of people like little chickens, and the carriage was instantly full, and people who had nowhere to sit crowded into the aisle.

More than an hour later, I arrived at the film and television city.

Wu Gang took the group performance to the actor and assistant director, and after counting the number of people, the assistant director used a loudspeaker to talk to the extras.

"I'm going to shoot a martial arts competition later, everyone can change their clothes and sit under the competition platform to cheer, do you understand?"

"Got it!"

Dozens of extras shouted weakly.

Xu Ning's eyes were attracted by a person under the awning, who was sitting in a chair reading the script.

"It's Zhao Wenzhuo again...... It seems that he is really fated to him. ”

The last time I entered his dream, I saw the picture of Fahai and Xiaoqing comforting each other, and I still remember it vividly.

He looked at the leading actors next to him again, and found that there were many familiar ones, and several female leading actors were also good-looking.

Among them, there is a Miss Asia champion called Yang Gongru.

Although it is not amazing, it can be called a beauty...... A chance to enter her dreams and see.

Seeing the promotional poster placed next to the awning, Xu Ning suddenly remembered that the drama "The Drunken Man" became a small hit in 2002.

However, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with me.

Because this drama has been started, the main actors have been decided, and there is no place for themselves at all.

But the thought of being able to gather wool makes me feel a lot better.

The Xingyi Fist attribute that he had picked up in Zhao Wenzhuo's dream realm before, after a period of diligent practice, had been upgraded to the [Skilled] realm.

The properties panel shows:

Xingyi Liuhe Fist (3.1/proficient)

This proficiency is no less than that of people who have studied for a few years, and it can only be said that the system is too powerful.

I met Zhao Wenzhuo again today, and I had to catch it and continue to fight.

If Zhao Wenzhuo knew that he had been playing the role of a tool man, he would probably not be able to sleep in anger.

Retract your gaze.

Xu Ning followed Wu Gang to the actor's assistant director, waiting for the role to be assigned.

And Bao Qiang is not suitable for playing a person in the martial arts because he is thin and small, so he has no choice but to play the role of Xiaote, so he has to play a tool man.

When the actor assistant director saw Xu Ning's appearance, his eyes lit up, and he asked with a little joy: "Are you a student of Chinese opera or Nortel?" ”

Xu Ning is 182 tall, sunny and handsome, and his appearance is also very capable in the entertainment industry.

He not only has the temperament of Zunlong, but also has the appearance of Wu Yanzu, if it is placed in 2023, it is estimated that he can gain millions of fans by shooting a short video.

But in 2001, opportunity was more important than appearance.

In his previous life, Xu Ning was unknown because of the lack of a little opportunity. Now, doing it all over again, he won't miss a chance.

Hearing the assistant director ask like this at this moment, he replied with a smile: "Thank you for the director's approval, I'm just an extra." ”
