Poverty alleviation variety show goes to the countryside, my talent can no longer be hidden

Chapter 131 Cao Xing's Decision

When he returned to the room, Zhou Hao was already 70% drunk.

There were so many people toasting him that even though Cao Xing and Lin Xina helped block several glasses, he still exceeded his alcohol tolerance limit.

I took a comfortable warm bath and drank a glass of hangover-removing tomato juice, and the alcohol gradually dissipated.

Although he was beginning to feel sleepy, he still insisted on opening his laptop and started typing and writing.

Although my body was very tired at this time, the benefits of having a maxed-out memory had begun to take effect. All the chapters of the novel were like spread out in my mind, clear and obvious. I could just copy them without having to use my brain at all.

It was so easy to copy.

It was one o'clock in the morning when he finished his typing task and went to bed.

As usual, I called up the systematic training course and continued to explore and hone my skills in the world of "Dream of Red Mansions".

Although he no longer needed acting skills, he still decided to pass the course.

You must do things from beginning to end. I would feel uncomfortable if I left this hole unfilled.

When I woke up the next day, it was already nine o'clock in the morning.

When I packed my luggage and went downstairs to check out, I happened to meet Lin Xina.

The daughter of Shanhai Film and Television was accompanied by an assistant and a driver, who were probably here to escort the princess home.

"Morning, screenwriter Zhou!" Lin Xina waved her hand and smiled brightly. "I thought you were drunk and might not be able to get up today."

"It's okay. I'm not completely drunk. I'll recover after a good night's sleep." Zhou Hao handed his room card to the front desk and turned around to ask, "Are you planning to go home?"

"Well, I've been out for a few months. It's time to go back and visit my family." Lin Xina sniffed, her eyes slightly red.

The little girl missed home.

After completing the check-out formalities, Zhou Hao was about to leave with his two suitcases, but Lin Xina suddenly said, "Writer Zhou, let me take you there."

"Ah?" Zhou Hao was shocked and glanced at his assistant and driver who had blank expressions on their faces. "Is this...appropriate?"

"What's inappropriate about that?" Lin Xina pouted and said, "I have to go back to Shanghai first anyway, so let's go back together. You can just change buses when you get to Shanghai."

Seeing that the "bodyguards" had no objection, Zhou Hao nodded happily, "Sorry for bothering you then."

It would be a waste if you don't take a ride. It saves you the trouble of changing cars and planes again and again.

Seeing Zhou Hao and Lin Xina walking out of the hotel door talking and laughing, Cao Xing, who came downstairs behind them, watched them silently for a long time, and finally sighed in frustration.

"Don't be so discouraged." Zhang Yunfeng, who came down with him, patted him on the back. "Chasing girls is a long-term battle. How can you give up so easily?"

"Besides, Nana probably doesn't have that much interest in screenwriter Zhou, so you still have a chance."

Cao Xing shook his head and sighed softly, "Writer Zhou is right. It's useless to just chase after someone shamelessly. You have to find a way to improve yourself."

"That makes a lot of sense." Zhang Yunfeng nodded in agreement.

I just don't know why, but there is a bit of sadness on his face...

"Uncle Yun, I want to apply to an art school." Cao Xing suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Do you think I have a chance?"

"Of course...ah?" Zhang Yunfeng suddenly came back to his senses, "What did you just say?"

"I want to apply to an art school for further studies and become a qualified actor." Cao Xing said seriously.

Seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, Zhang Yunfeng couldn't help but twitch his lips, "Will your agency agree?"

"If they don't agree, then just bear with it. Anyway, I only have two years left on my contract with them. The worst result is that I will be hidden for two years." Cao Xing curled his lips. Zhang Yunfeng was shocked. "Don't be stupid, kid. You will be hidden for two years and study for three or four years. When you graduate, you will not be young anymore. By then, you may end up with nothing!"

"I didn't do anything stupid, nor was I impulsive." Cao Xing frowned and said, "I have been thinking about this for a long time."

"Idol stars are all young people. I'm already this old. How many more years can I enjoy the bonus of youth? If I continue like this, I will be replaced by the younger brothers in a few years."

"In the idol circle, the speed at which the old and the new are replaced is terrifying. I may be out of fashion tomorrow morning...Those of us in the idol circle may seem to have a good time, but in fact, we are also very anxious in private. Unless you are a heartless person, you don't care."

"The reason why I have been wanting to transform is because I don't want to be forgotten by this circle so quickly."

"I have been thinking about this before, but I was too busy to find the time, and my agency refused to agree, so I kept putting it off."

"But after several months of experience and reflection, I have made a decision."

"Even if I achieve nothing after graduation, it's better than continuing to muddle along like this and becoming a scythe in the hands of the agency."

Hearing this, Zhang Yunfeng looked at Cao Xing in astonishment, as if he had just met this young man.

In the past, Cao Xing always gave him the impression of being a bit funny and neurotic, always laughing and joking and never serious.

This was the first time he saw Cao Xing so serious.

"Have you really made up your mind? Don't you regret it?"

"Yes." Cao Xing nodded and said, "I don't want to continue like this."

After pondering for a while, Zhang Yunfeng nodded and said, "Okay, I'll help you think of a solution."

Upon hearing this, Cao Xing smiled, "Thank you, Uncle Yun!"

He knew very well that with his current academic qualifications, he would not even be able to get into an art school.

After all, his college entrance examination results that year were so terrible...

Those well-known art schools do have some requirements for academic performance.

Those fake schools don’t have any requirements, but he doesn’t like them either!
After all, Zhang Yunfeng had been an assistant teacher and he still had some connections. With his help, our hope would be much greater.

"You don't have to thank me." Zhang Yunfeng lowered his voice and said, "I'll give you a suggestion. Holding on to Zhou Hao's thigh will do you a lot of good in the future."

"Eh?" Cao Xing blinked, a little confused.

"Silly." Zhang Yunfeng shook his head in amusement. "That guy's head is a treasure trove. He has an endless supply of script resources. It's only a matter of time before he sets up his own studio."

"You can hold on to his thighs now, so why are you worried about not having any roles to play in the future?"

"Let's not talk about the distant past. Let's just talk about the recent script of 'The Beginning'. Isn't the male lead very suitable for you? If you have a strong enough relationship with him, it would only take a word from him to decide who will be the male lead."

"In this regard, you really need to learn more from Nana and see how she manages her personal connections!"

Cao Xing blinked, "Huh?"

"Ah-"

Lin Xina in the car sneezed loudly. She took out a tissue and wiped her nose, then looked at Zhou Hao with shining eyes.

"Writer Zhou, do you have a suitable candidate for the female lead in The Beginning?"
