Entertainment News: This Best Actor's acting range is so narrow it's enviable.

July 2001, scorching hot.

The crew of the TV series "Xiao Shiyi Lang" in Shidu, a southwestern suburb of Beijing.

A fierce fight scene is unfolding on the water's edge.

Director Li Wenyan sat in the director's chair, with a parasol over his head, nodding frequently as he watched the footage on the monitor.

He was very satisfied with the performances of the three actors.

This scene depicts a fight between Xiao Shiyilang, Lingjiu, and Xueying.

Wu Qilong, who plays the male lead Xiao Shiyilang, has practiced Taekwondo.

Yang Junyi and Zhang Jin, who play Lingjiu and Xueying respectively, are both Wuying-level athletes, so the action scenes were not difficult for them.

At a rest stop outside the film set, several extras dressed in period costumes were grumbling.

"Our lives as extras are truly miserable. We get the least pay but suffer the most."

"That's right, it's infuriating to compare yourself to others. Look at Zhu Yin, her scenes are about to start, but she hasn't come yet. She's probably enjoying the air conditioning in her hotel right now."

"Can we compare to Fairy Zixia? She's a big star from Hong Kong."

Jiang Feng, who had been listening to everyone's conversation, couldn't help but speak up:

"There's another reason why Zhu Yin wasn't on set waiting for her scene. It wasn't because she was being arrogant; it was something the director specifically instructed her to do."

The extras immediately became interested.

Over this period of time, they had become familiar with Jiang Feng and realized that he was not an ordinary extra.

He is a student at the Beijing Film Academy, and I heard he is also the junior of Yu Bo, the second male lead.

Yu Bo took good care of Jiang Feng, even letting him stay in his own room and often telling him about things on set.

Therefore, Jiang Feng was very well-informed and had a high reputation among the extras. Even the group leader gave him special treatment.

After all, he's different from ordinary extras; he has the potential to become a big star in the future.

An extra skillfully handed Jiang Feng a bottle of mineral water.

"College student, you said that Zhu Yin's absence from the set was a special permission granted by the director. What do you mean by that?"

Everyone else was also looking at Jiang Feng with gossipy expressions.

Jiang Feng took a sip of water and pointed to the sun overhead.

"Look how strong the sun is. If Zhu Yin were waiting on set like us, Fairy Zixia would be tanned into Fairy Blackie."

"After our TV series airs, will viewers be able to accept seeing Shen Bijun with a dark complexion?"

The extras all nodded in agreement, agreeing with Jiang Feng's point.

In fact, Zhu Yin's skin has already turned a bit dark.

Her skin wasn't very fair to begin with, and after being exposed to the sun like that, her once pretty face was greatly diminished in appearance. Where was the charm of Zixia Fairy?

One of the extras said, "I glanced at her from afar that day and thought Zhu Yin was just so-so-looking, not even as pretty as the second female lead who played Feng Si Niang."

Great minds think alike.

"I think so too."

The men's interest was heightened when women were mentioned.

Jiang Feng took another sip of water and continued:

"Let me tell you another big scoop: Wu Qilong was all lovey-dovey with Zhu Yin in the drama, but off-screen he was also having a hot romance with Ma Yashu, the actress who played Feng Si Niang."

Upon hearing this, everyone's faces lit up with gossip, like a badger darting around in a melon patch.

"Did your senior, Yu Bo, tell you this too?" asked a background actor in his twenties.

Jiang Feng shook his head: "My senior brother isn't that gossipy. Besides, does he even need to say it? Wu Qilong and Ma Yashu don't hide anything from people. Anyone with eyes can see it."

An extra asked curiously:

"Jiang Feng, you're a student at Beijing Film Academy, why are you so foolish as to come to this godforsaken mountain to be an extra?"

Others echoed his sentiments.

"Yes, we're forced to do this to make a living. What are you after?"

Jiang Feng smiled slightly and said calmly:

"So what if you're a college student? Without real skills, you're just a pretty face with no substance. Only through practice can you gain true knowledge. What you learn from books is never enough; you must put it into practice to truly understand." Wang Yangming taught us that we must always put knowledge into action.

The extras all gave a thumbs up, completely convinced.

"As expected of college students, their awareness is truly high."

"Not all college students are as aware as Jiang Feng."

"Jiang Feng, you're even more handsome than Wu Qilong, and you're also educated, ambitious, and hardworking. You're sure to make a name for yourself in the future."

"That's right, I have high hopes for you. You'll definitely become a big star someday. Don't forget to give us a hand when that happens!"

"If you become a big star in the future, I'll have a lot to brag about."

Jiang Feng wore a smile, but inwardly he was suffering in silence, unable to express his bitterness.

If it weren't for the task assigned by that old man in the system, he wouldn't have bothered coming here to suffer like this.

Yes, he has a system.

The year he was admitted to the Beijing Film Academy, the moment he received his admission notice, the system's voice rang in his mind, appearing unexpectedly in his life.

The system's primary function is to exploit loopholes and exploit promotional offers.

He can establish connections with others and extract attribute points from them for various skills.

The way to establish a connection can be through direct physical contact or through indirect means such as touching objects that others have touched. The former yields more attribute points.

In addition, the system will occasionally release tasks, and you will receive a reward after completing the task.

These days, Jiang Feng has extracted a lot of acting skills from Wu Qilong, Zhu Yin, and Yu Bo, and also some singing skills from Wu Qilong.

However, the ones who suffered the most from his exploitation were Yang Junyi and Zhang Jin, who lived next door and were both Wuying-level athletes.

Jiang Feng would often go and hang out with them when he had nothing to do. Over time, he reaped considerable rewards, acquiring Chen-style Tai Chi, Baguazhang, and Tai Chi sword from them.

Because he was overly enthusiastic and always touching her inappropriately, Yang Junyi and Zhang Jin suspected that his orientation was abnormal. They secretly approached Yu Bo and told him to be careful when he slept at night.

Jiang Feng was a student in the 2000 class of the Performance Department at Beijing Film Academy.

It's summer vacation now, and all his classmates have gone home.

He was originally going home, and he had already bought his train ticket, but the system suddenly issued a task, asking him to come to the "Xiao Shiyi Lang" drama crew to play a role with lines.

Jiang Feng's homeroom teacher is Wang Jinsong, not the one from "Nirvana in Fire," but the mentally ill man from "Who Says I Don't Care" who used a rubber band as a slingshot to shoot at Feng Gong's windows.

"Who Says I Don't Care" was just released at the beginning of this month.

Wang Jinsong is quite good to his students. He was very pleased to hear that Jiang Feng was not going home for summer vacation and wanted to work as an extra in the TV series "Xiao Shiyi Lang".

These days, there aren't many students as ambitious and driven as Jiang Feng.

He still had some connections in the industry, and he successfully helped Jiang Feng resolve the matter.

It just so happened that Jiang Feng's senior apprentice, Yu Bo, was playing the second male lead, Lian Chengbi, in the drama "Xiao Shiyi Lang," so Wang Jinsong instructed Yu Bo to take good care of Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng has been here for half a month, but he still hasn't gotten a role with any lines.

He was too embarrassed to bother Wang Jinsong again. Yu Bo was also acting for the first time, and as a nobody, he couldn't say anything. Jiang Feng could only continue to wait for an opportunity.

Just then, a loud bang suddenly came from the filming location not far away.

Immediately afterward, there was a commotion in the crowd, and Jiang Feng heard someone shout in panic.

"Something terrible has happened!"

"Yang Junyi fell down."

"Doctor, where's the doctor? Come quick!"

Seeing that there was something to see, the extras immediately swarmed over, and Jiang Feng followed.

Yang Junyi was lying on the ground, unconscious, and the crew's doctor was examining him.

Director Li Wenyan asked nervously:

"Doctor, how is it?"

The doctor shook his head, his face grave. "He's badly injured and needs to be taken to the hospital immediately."

This is in the mountains; ambulances can't get in.

Li Wenyan had no choice but to have his staff, under the doctor's instructions, lift the unconscious Yang Junyi into a car and take him to a hospital in the city.
