I am a leader in the entertainment industry

Chapter 2: Teachers and classmates

Mr. Ma Jingwu is a senior professor of the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy and also a veteran actor familiar to the audience. It can be said that he is a top-notch actor in both theory and practice. Many of the works he has participated in are deeply loved by the people.

In addition, Mr. Ma is also Li Qi’s mentor, and has a profound influence on him in terms of performance. Li Qi also met several veteran artists from the People’s Art Theater and other units through Mr. Ma, who can be said to be a half-guide. Li Qi himself particularly respects this teacher

“cluck···”The office door was open. Li Qi smiled and looked at Mr. Ma and knocked on the door.

Before Teacher Ma looked up from his desk, Li Qi said,”Hello, teacher! I, Li Qi, have come to report to you.”

Ma Jingwu looked at his student, who he had high hopes for, and scanned him from head to toe. He smiled and said,”I was worried that you looked a little delicate before, but it seems that my worries were in vain. Running around for more than two months has made you lose your childishness and gain a more heroic temperament.”

He stood up again, looked around, patted Li Qi on the shoulder and said,”I have heard a lot about you during this period. You have done a good job!”

Li Qi quickly said:”This is the influence of teachers on students. The teachings of teachers to students will never be forgotten by students in their lifetime.”

This is a true story. The older generation of literary and art workers all talked about the spirit of dedication and always went deep into the masses. The later generations of practitioners completely lost this spirit in the face of the sugar-coated bullets of capital. Needless to say, some of the rumors that broke out may be the truth if you take them seriously.

“”Find a chair and sit down.” Ma Jingwu waved his hand. He felt comfortable with Li Qi’s words, but they still had the meaning of flattery.

“You’re not going to the crew to look for a play to shoot, what are you doing in school? Now that you’re in your third year, you’re not too strict with your studies, are you?” Ma Jingwu said jokingly.

Li Qi knew that he had no shortage of roles to play, and many people he knew could get him some supporting roles. Of course, newcomers didn’t care whether they were the main characters or not, and it was necessary to gain experience first. But Li Qi also went to some crews in the past two years and played a few minor supporting roles, which helped him gain some experience.

“Teacher, please take a look at this script first. Li Qi took out a thick book from his backpack and handed it to Ma Jingwu.

“《”Startling by Each Step” Ma Jingwu read the title of the book, looked up at Li Qi, nodded meaningfully and said:”I’ll take a look first” and then read the script alone

Li Qi also changed to a comfortable position and sat, waiting for the teacher’s call.

Time passed unknowingly~

Ma Jingwu smiled and said:”The script is good, it has palace fighting and political intrigue, but it can’t be filmed as a serious drama, it’s a costume romance drama”

“Yes, teacher, you know I founded a film and television company, I plan to invest in the filming of”Startling by Each Step”, this drama has many young actors, I plan to find some classmates from our school to act in it, it can be regarded as giving them some opportunities, but I still need a few seniors to stabilize the scene”

In recent years, Hong Kong and Taiwan have controlled the market for young actors. When new actors debut, they use the new or middle-aged actors from the mainland as supporting roles, suppressing them. They even control the media and are very good at hype, with names like”king of pop”,”queen of pop”,”little king of pop”,”little queen of pop”,”king of Asian dance”, etc.

Ma Jingwu also knew this, but this is how they are, they don’t fight or compete, so they can’t compare to others in this regard, what they have no choice!

“Who are you looking for?”

“Hi~, the person I’m looking for is really good. He is Mr. Tang Guoqiang, who has played emperors throughout the five thousand years of Chinese history. Please help me with the rest.”

There is no such saying on the Internet now. Ma Jingwu didn’t understand it at first. When he heard the three words”Tang Guoqiang”, he understood it. He wanted to laugh and said,”Your saying is new, but don’t say it in front of him.” He warned his students and said,”I will talk to him for you and arrange a meeting. You can talk to him yourself if it works out.”

Li Qi knew that Mr. Tang was a decent person and had a big heart.

“Thank you teacher!”

Next, Li Qi continued to talk to Mr. Ma about several other suitable seniors. It would be best if people could see that in addition to young actors, there were also several old actors familiar to the audience.

Coming out of the teacher’s office, it was already noon. Li Qi had a quick meal in the school cafeteria. He didn’t care much about food. He didn’t smoke or drink. This was rare in the north. He was a southerner in his previous life. Even though he had lived in Beijing for five years, he still kept some of his habits from his previous life.

As for interests, Li Qi may still keep the habit of drinking tea. He doesn’t care whether it’s expensive or not. He can’t tell the difference anyway. He just enjoys the tranquility of brewing, washing and soaking tea. It’s particularly peaceful and beautiful.

That’s too far~

Naza is a schoolmate that Li Qi met at school. She came to Beijing alone to study and work hard. This girl looks extremely unfriendly to her female classmates. Unfriendly beauty!

Just then, when Li Qi came out after finishing his meal, he saw her not far away, sitting alone on a long wooden chair under a tree, with her back to her, and he couldn’t see her expression clearly. Li Qi felt that she must have encountered some trouble and was worried!

Li Qi walked over and sat next to her, more than half a body away. This was a social etiquette. Li Qi always thought he was a gentle gentleman. He didn’t pretend to be careless and put his arm around her shoulders. He disdained to do these little actions. He respected women very much. Of course, everything was consensual for a gentleman.

“Little Naza, long time no see.” Li Qi, who was sitting down, greeted

Naza turned around and saw that it was Li Qi.”Senior, you’re back!” Her voice was a little choked up. Maybe she responded subconsciously. There was a hint of surprise in her voice.

Li Qi naturally noticed this.”I came to school in the morning and stayed with Teacher Ma.” Then he realized that Nazha’s face was haggard and her eyes were slightly red. She must have cried just now.

“I just finished my meal and found you when I came out. Have you eaten?” Li Qi looked at the man and said

“I can’t eat, I have no appetite!” Naza shook his head.

“Not only can you not eat, but you also can’t sleep well. It looks like you haven’t slept for several days.”

When Naza heard Li Qi’s concern, the indifference she had faced in the past few days was like the warm sun in the cold winter, and her heart was warmed.

She borrowed money from everywhere because her father needed to be hospitalized for surgery, which would cost a lot of money. Looking around, she realized that she was so helpless. Even a good friend took the opportunity to introduce her to the business of a brothel owner. After listening to the other party, she felt sick for a while. Naza naturally refused.

Thinking of this, she couldn’t stop her tears from falling. She knew that this senior who had always treated her very well really cared about her. With his conditions, he could get any woman he wanted, but he always treated her so well. Whether the other party values ​​you or not, you can feel it over the years.

Li Qi knew that it was not surprising that Naza thought so. He did pay attention to her, but he also wanted to sign her and let her make money for him.
