Huayu 2007: Starting with Super Boy!

Broadcasting Building.

The office of the chief director of the Super Boy program.

Long Danny looked up, somewhat speechless: "What's going on this time?"

Does this kid think this place is a teahouse?

They come more often than I do.

"Hehe...Director Long, I've brought you some talent." Wang Yihan smiled and handed over the resume in her hand.

"Talent? What kind of talent?" Long Danny didn't refuse his offer and took the resume to look at it.

Wang Yihan seized the opportunity to explain, "Isn't Meteor Shower holding auditions for the female lead?"

"It just so happens that I have a friend who fits the bill perfectly in every way, and he's currently single. I couldn't bear to let such talent go to waste, so I quickly recommended him to you."

"Of course, the decision is entirely yours; I'm just offering some suggestions."

Long Danny waved his hand to interrupt him, "Alright, tell her to remember to come to the station for the audition at 10 a.m. the day after tomorrow. No exceptions."

This resume really appealed to her.

In particular, his experience of signing with Huayi Brothers was a big plus.

Certifications from leading companies in the industry are generally trustworthy.

"Then I'll thank Director Long on her behalf."

Having completed her mission, Wang Yihan left without looking back.

Go back and tell Zhao Liying the good news.

She flew up happily.

I absolutely must invite him to thank him.

There was no way to refuse.

So Xiaohua and I had no choice but to go and mooch another meal at someone else's place.

But they didn't choose any fancy restaurants.

I only chose an ordinary hot pot restaurant.

After all, they just paid to terminate their contract with Huayi, so they're probably short of money right now.

After finishing the meal.

Zhao Liying wanted to take her leave.

Give the two of them some space to be alone.

But Wang Yihan stopped him.

He took a script out of his bag and handed it to her. "Here, this is the script. Take a good look at it when you have time. You'll probably have a lot of competition at the audition the day after tomorrow. Good luck."

Zhao Liying was deeply moved: "Thank you! I'll treat you to a big meal if this works out!"

"Okay! I've got it." Zhang Hanyun agreed before Wang Yihan could refuse.

Zhao Liying then revealed a happy smile.

He patted his chest and guaranteed to fulfill his promise.

Until the other party leaves.

Wang Yihan then asked his girlfriend why she had agreed earlier.

Zhang Hanyun explained, "Hey, that's just her strong-willed personality. She doesn't like owing people favors. If I hadn't agreed just now, this matter would probably have stayed in her mind and affected her subsequent auditions, which would have been a loss."

That's it!

"My girlfriend is so smart, she's so perceptive."

Wang Yihan praised her highly, then pinched her cute chubby cheeks.

It feels so good!

Zhang Hanyun then pinched his waist hard.

.......

.......

Two days later.

Wang Yihan received the good news from Zhao Liying: "I passed the audition!"

"Wow, congratulations!" Wang Yihan was genuinely happy for her.

As long as it's not that mosaic, everything is fine.

Zhang Hanyun was also happy for her best friend.

"I'll treat you to a big meal, just like I promised." She remembered her promise.

Zhang Hanyun said apologetically, "I'm so sorry, Liying, there's an event in Shanghai that I have to attend, and the timing doesn't suit me."

Wang Yihan also explained on behalf of his girlfriend: "It's the premiere promotion for the movie 'The Secret of the Magic Gourd.' Xiaohua is the singer of the theme song 'One Person, One Dream,' so she had to be there, so..."

"I understand, maybe next time, I'll treat you next time." Zhao Liying knew that the show was more important than anything else.

He sent his girlfriend away.

That night.

Mango TV then convened a symposium with actors, screenwriters, directors, and producers.

Unlike a drowsy seminar.

Hunan TV really wants to get things done.

Therefore, the three-hour meeting was entirely packed with valuable information from beginning to end.

Wang Yihan glanced at Zhao Xiaodao sitting opposite her, who was engrossed in writing rapidly, seemingly trying to record everything.

Is it true that the early bird catches the worm?

I have to say this trick works pretty well.

She instantly won the approval of the directors and producers present.

At least their attitude is correct.

In addition, her outstanding performance during the audition.

Make them believe that this person is worth investing a lot of effort in developing.

As for the other four male actors, apart from the male lead Wang Yihan, they didn't have much hope for the other three.

After all, they're just contestants from talent shows.

Just act cute and cool during the photoshoot.

Don't make too many demands.

Of course, even so, the acting skills still need to be passable.

At the very least, the audience shouldn't be pulled out of the story.

Therefore, necessary training is still required.

This put Su Xing, Wei Chen, and Yu Haoming in a difficult position.

It takes a day to divide it into two parts.

In the morning, I went to the Magic Castle to learn about music with other Super Boy contestants.

This is fine for them, since they are all professionals.

But the pain started in the afternoon.

For them, who had zero acting experience, it was no less than going back to their senior year of high school.

That feeling was like an eternity.

Fortunately, in acting class, Wang Yihan, who has excellent acting skills, shielded them from a lot of the teachers' anger; otherwise, their situation would have been even more precarious.

However, they all gritted their teeth and persevered.

Because they all knew this was a rare opportunity.

Su Xing, in particular, knew that this opportunity was secured for him by his good friend Wang Yihan.

I can't let him down.

In this atmosphere of shared joy, they entered the fifth round of the finals.

Friday, June 22, 2007.

19 pm.

Wang Yihan and her group arrived at the live broadcast venue ahead of time.

"Hey, have you heard? Because the show's ratings dropped last time, the station is planning to try something new this time," Su Xing whispered to the others.

"What new tricks?" Yu Haoming leaned over and asked.

He was quite frustrated because he scored last in the vocal test before the competition and was placed in the waiting list.

The chances of being eliminated have skyrocketed!

Dangerous!

"What do you think?" Su Xing gestured towards him with her chin, reminding him, "Why did you get the lowest score on your quiz? You weren't the worst performer yesterday."

Eh!

That's right!

Why didn't I think of that at the time?

So it was all a setup!

Yu Haoming suddenly felt less depressed.

"What do you mean? Is there something fishy about Yu Haoming's grades?" Chen Chusheng belatedly looked at the know-it-all Wang Yihan.

Wang Yihan's lips twitched, but she still revealed a bit: "Isn't it all for the ratings? Hunan TV wants to stir things up."

"I've already come up with the script for them. Arrange for Yu Haoming to be at the bottom, then use his off-stage popularity to have a final showdown with another strong contestant, and then orchestrate a stunning reversal. Wouldn't that generate buzz? Wouldn't the ratings explode?"

How could they do this?

Wei Chen is still a bit young, to ask such a question.

They'll do anything for ratings.

"So what? It's all for the ratings, okay? Even if I'm eliminated tonight, I won't be surprised," Wang Yihan said calmly.

Having come this far on his Super Boy journey, he has come to terms with it.

Even if we are eliminated in this round, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, I've already gotten my hands on the idol drama role.

Aside from winning the championship, the other rankings don't matter.

The championship is a bottomless pit!

He wouldn't step on it.
