Huayu: Starting with Hijacking from "The Story of a Noble Family"

"Look at how smug that guy is!"

"What, are you jealous?"

"Jealous? What's there to be jealous of? He just made it to the second round of auditions. I don't believe a newcomer like him can really become the male lead in a major production right from his debut!"

In the classroom of the 01 Acting Department at Beijing Film Academy, Xu Heng's two roommates, Sun Haidong and Wang Hongyu, couldn't help but feel a little envious as they watched Jia Nailiang talking animatedly and eloquently not far away.

They also participated in the audition, but did not receive a notification for the second round of auditions, so they obviously did not pass.

Moreover, even if Jia Nailiang can't play the male lead, he might be able to play other roles.

Last December, the highly anticipated drama "The Story of a Noble Family," with an investment of up to 20 million yuan, officially began casting. Director Li Dawei is a graduate of the Beijing Film Academy, so he takes special care of students from the Beijing Film Academy.

The production crew even came to their class to try and recruit them. All the students in their class submitted their information, and more than a dozen people participated in the audition.

The first round of auditions has now concluded, but the production team has not yet released the results.

But today, as soon as Xu Heng and his roommate entered the classroom, they heard Jia Nailiang boasting that he had received a second-round audition notice from the "The Story of a Noble Family" production team.

Not only that, he originally applied for the male lead role.

Of course, the roles you apply for are random. The first round of auditions is like a preliminary selection, and you won't be assigned a specific role. Everyone will have the same questions, and the only difference is whether you are male or female.

Only in the second round of auditions will roles be assigned based on the actor's image and temperament.

At this moment, four beautiful girls carrying textbooks walked into the classroom. The one in the lead was a real beauty, Huang Shengyi, the class beauty, along with her three roommates Yao Lan, Wang Jiayin, and Qu Lu.

Upon seeing Huang Shengyi, Jia Nailiang immediately greeted her with a smile, because Huang Shengyi was his girlfriend!

Last year, right after starting his freshman year, he set his sights on Huang Shengyi, the prettiest girl in his class.

At first, he didn't dare to confess his feelings. He only dared to help Huang Shengyi save a front-row seat during class, hand her water and shade her from the sun during military training, and deliberately stand next to her during group activities.

With his subsequent tireless efforts, he finally won the heart of his sweetheart near the end of his freshman year!

"Yiyi, you're here! I've saved you a seat!"

Jia Nailiang approached Huang Shengyi with a fawning expression.

"Yiyi, it seems your judgment was right after all. Liangzi just received the notification for the second round of auditions last night, and he was probably so excited that he couldn't sleep all night. He even called you for so long to comfort you, but he still remembered to save you a seat this morning!"

Before Huang Shengyi could speak, Yao Lan, who was closest to her, spoke first.

Hearing her friend say that, Huang Shengyi couldn't help but laugh, and her bad mood from not passing the first round of auditions improved a lot.

She then walked to the seat that Jia Nailiang had saved for her, but as she turned around, she pretended to glance at Xu Heng's direction unintentionally.

She was the prettiest girl in their class, while Xu Heng was undoubtedly the most handsome boy.

She had hinted at it to Xu Heng several times, but Xu Heng was either pretending to be stupid or genuinely stupid, and he remained unmoved. Disappointed, she finally accepted Jia Nailiang's advances.

However, all of that is in the past now, and of the dozen or so students in the class who went to the audition, only Jia Nailiang passed.

This proves that her judgment was indeed correct; Jia Nailiang does indeed have more potential!

Seeing Jia Nailiang sitting with Huang Shengyi, Sun Haidong and Wang Hongyu became even more furious.

Huang Shengyi's appearance is undoubtedly stunning, which is why she was recognized as the most beautiful girl in the Beijing Film Academy's acting department. It would be impossible for them not to have any thoughts about her.

Moreover, Huang Shengyi had no choice but to choose Jia Nailiang as her boyfriend.

Jia Nailiang is usually good at all kinds of scheming, and there are rumors that he was able to get into the Beijing Film Academy through back channels. So although he is popular in class and teachers like him, his reputation in private is not so good.

Most importantly, at the beginning of the first semester of their freshman year last year, their dorm and Huang Shengyi's dorm were quite close, and Huang Shengyi was also quite close to Xu Heng. At that time, they all thought that Xu Heng and Huang Shengyi would become a couple.

So at this moment, it was obvious to them that Jia Nailiang had stolen Xu Heng's girlfriend!

Xu Heng is not as good at socializing as Jia Nailiang, but he has a gentle personality and is very low-key and humble. He also gets along very well with his classmates and roommates!

Thinking this, the two couldn't help but look at Xu Heng, as did their other roommate, Zhang Zichen.

Xu Heng could guess what they were thinking, but he just smiled lightly, seemingly not caring at all.

He wasn't really stupid, of course; he knew Huang Shengyi had feelings for him.

As a reborn person, he was very clear that Huang Shengyi would become an overnight sensation in the future.

Huang Shengyi's looks are definitely not bad; she could be considered top-tier in the entertainment industry just by looking at her appearance.

But he has absolutely no intention of dating right now, let alone actively pursuing anyone.

He didn't choose to enter the entertainment industry for these female celebrities.

In his previous life, he had never been involved in the entertainment industry; he was just an ordinary programmer who benefited from the era's dividends, successfully settled down in a first-tier city, and even owned two houses there.

Both houses were bought with loans, but compared to ordinary people, he can still be considered successful, and he was once quite high-spirited.

When she was 35, she developed health problems and could no longer roll the cloth, so the company sent her out into the workforce.

His wife, whom he had been married to for less than two years, also filed for divorce. Fortunately, they had no children, so he only received a house in their settlement and did not have to continue paying child support.

Afterwards, he sold the remaining house, and after deducting the loan, he returned to his hometown with several million yuan to recuperate. Unexpectedly, he just happened to avoid the housing price crash.

After recovering, he simply lay down completely and gave up on dating and remarriage to avoid losing a large sum of money again.

Then one day he woke up and found himself back to when he was 16 and had just started his senior year of high school.

Not only that, after his rebirth, he also discovered that his memory had become exceptionally good.

Not only can they have a photographic memory, but they can also recall every detail of everything they experienced in their previous life very clearly.

He also possessed a "system" from the online novels he had read in his previous life. However, this "system" required him to interact with the entertainment industry to activate, so he decisively chose to apply to an art school.

Life is not a game. Cheating in a game is immoral, but not using cheats in life is absolutely stupid!

Thanks to his slightly "optimized" appearance by the "system," he was able to get into the Performance Department of Taipei Film Academy without any problems, even though his talent level was only average at best.

Thinking this, he glanced at the "System" panel.
