Chapter 360 Entering the crew
Seeing everyone's envious expressions, Mo Zhiran finally felt confident. She thought she had done very well in this exam. What could be more suitable for political commentary than ancient articles that have been tested by time? In this imaginary world, knowing these historical books, she was like a cheat.
She was sure that no one could answer this exam better than her.
When Mo Zhiran answered, even the emperor nodded involuntarily.
After answering the questions, Mo Zhiran returned to her seat with satisfaction and stood respectfully. The etiquette in the examination room was not wrong at all.
A sure bet. There was only one thought in her heart.
But there is still the only uncertain factor, that is, there will be several candidates after her. If there are particularly outstanding ones who can answer better than her, then there is still a certain risk.
So she still stood there calmly and stared at the answers of the candidates behind her.
Five...four...two...
Until the last one, there was no one who was particularly outstanding. Mo Zhiran's heart almost jumped out. Victory is at hand.
Mo Zhiran was like a high school student who had just passed the college entrance examination, as if he had returned to his old days, feeling the extreme joy of being named on the gold medal list.
However, the next words from the imperial examination official really made Mo Zhiran's heart fall from the peak to the trough.
"The list of people who have passed this palace examination is now announced..."
Mo Zhiran originally thought that she would be the first one, but it turned out not to be the case.
The second, the third...
My mood now is no longer the joyful one it was just now, but a kind of torture like falling into hell.
After reading several names, none of them were Mo Zhiran's, and Mo Zhiran vaguely felt that something was wrong.
When the examiner read out the last name, Mo Zhiran still didn't hear her name.
The excitement in my heart suddenly turned into the opposite, and disbelief.
How is this possible, how can you not have yourself?
My answer just now was very good, I shouldn’t have failed.
There must be something wrong here.
But before thinking about the reason, the system's punishment has already arrived.
This is the game that tortured Mo Zhiran to the point of psychological shadow last time.
The already poor mood was even worse.
But since you have signed a contract with the system, you cannot repent. Mo Zhiran completed the punishment blankly and spent almost a day in the system, which was a day of devil training.
It suffered a double blow mentally and physically, but the system still had a little bit of humanity. After detecting Mo Zhiran's poor physical condition, it adjusted its strategy and let her return to the real world to adjust first.
At this moment, Mo Zhiran was sitting in her living room, thinking hard about what was happening in the system.
This was impossible, absolutely impossible, she was sure that she was the best one for her.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration occurred.
If she had the best answer, she was not admitted in the end. So does this admission criterion not determine whether she is good or not?
After figuring this out, Mo Zhiran suddenly had a new idea.
So what should the standard be?
For people who have never experienced the exam, this standard may be very difficult to find, but Mo Zhiran has experienced it once, so she only needs to summarize the rules from the answers that have passed the exam.
She carefully recalled the answers of several people who passed the exam.
Candidate No. 1... Candidate No. 3...
She was particularly grateful that she listened very carefully to other people's answers before and after answering the questions, and now she could roughly think of other people's answers.
If she only focused on herself, there would be almost nothing she could do.
Just thinking about it in her head still made her a little confused, so she picked up her phone and entered several people's answers into her notepad.
But after looking at it for a long time, apart from the common points that their answers seemed to be very reasonable and relevant, there seemed to be no other rules to be found.
The mind is confused.
I originally wanted to figure these things out and then deal with real-world matters, but now it seems that this exam is not so easy to pass.
So she picked up her phone.
After a few hours of disappearance, WeChat seemed to have exploded.
All kinds of information are pouring in.
The most numerous of them was Rachel's.
【reply ASAP! 】
She called Rachel back.
Rachel's anxious voice immediately came on the other end of the phone.
"Where have you been? Director Li's crew is about to leave!"
Then, before Mo Zhiran had time to explain, Rachel was bombarded with a machine gun.
[You are required to show up at the airport within one hour, and the plane will take off in two hours. 】
Rachel's tone made Mo Zhiran feel like a special forces soldier on the front line.
But she still took Rachel's words to heart, because Director Li was well-known in the industry for his serious personality.
It is said that there is no actor under him who does not collapse.
He has always had a few tacit iron rules when dealing with the members of the crew.
The first one is not to be late.
It is said that a superstar was fired by Director Li for being late, and all future cooperation with the actor was terminated, which is equivalent to being blacklisted.
Therefore, no matter whether you are a big shot or a walk-on here, you must follow his rules.
Otherwise, there will only be copies that are removed.
Knowing this, it's no surprise that Rachel was nervous.
Fortunately, I was prepared in advance. I had prepared my luggage for the set in advance and was ready to go at any time.
After packing up her usual things, Mo Zhiran rushed to the airport without stopping.
The plane took off on time two hours later.
On the other side, Lu Shengjing, who still didn't know Mo Zhiran's itinerary, was planning to have dinner with Mo Zhiran at night.
He felt that continuing like this would definitely not be the solution. If there was any misunderstanding, he must explain it clearly first.
"Mu, book a private room in RY, the one private to their boss."
"Yes, the owner of that store has already said that as long as you go there, the place will be reserved."
Lu Shengjing didn't answer.
On the side, Mu Yunfeng did not leave the office immediately after saying this. Instead, he looked a little embarrassed and hesitated to speak.
Now Xiyue is blocking Lu Shengjing outside the door. She has been clamoring all afternoon to see Lu Shengjing.
Today is different from the past. Those scandals made Mu Yunfeng wonder whether he should let this person in.
Lu Shengjing glanced at her and said coldly, "Don't say anything you shouldn't say."
This time, Mu Yunfeng didn't even dare to express his expression, and put on an iceberg face similar to their boss's.
He has completely understood what the boss meant.
If you want to keep her job, then you should leave Xiyue alone in the future.
At this moment, on the other side, Mo Zhiran and Rachel arrived at the filming destination, Xinshi.
To be honest, Xinshi is an extremely remote place in the entire area. If it hadn't been for this visit, Mo Zhiran wouldn't have known there was such a place.
As soon as she got off the plane, Mo Zhiran felt that the air here was extremely fresh. Although the economy here was not among the best, the environment was indeed very good.
I don’t know how the director found such a good place.
She thought she could take a short rest when she arrived at the airport, but she didn't expect Rachel to pull her onto the bus without stopping.
Then, the bus was replaced by a jeep, and the jeep was replaced by a motorcycle. Finally, what Mo Zhiran never imagined in her life was that they arrived at the filming location in a donkey cart.
While on the road, she thought more than once, was this really a filming trip? Isn’t this woman next to her leading a group to go to the countryside to experience life?
It wasn't until the donkey cart slowly stopped in front of a temporary studio and Mo Zhiran saw Director Li walking out with a smile that Mo Zhiran really believed it.
Such a tortuous and bizarre process was actually just for filming.
With the appearance of Director Li, several other actors also came out. They have become relatively familiar faces and often appear on the TV screen. They all deserve their names.
Although he is not comparable to big names like Fei Ming, he should be older than Mo Zhiran in terms of seniority.
Mo Zhiran greeted the actors one at a time, one senior at a time.
Everyone is also very kind.
"Xiao Mo, you have worked hard along the way. Isn't the road difficult?"
Mo Zhiran originally thought that the director's words were just a polite expression of concern, so she politely said, "No hard work, no hard work..."
Unexpectedly, the director laughed loudly and said, "That's okay. The most important thing when filming my movie is to endure hardship. This is your first level."
Mo Zhiran had heard about hardship for a long time.
According to rumors, Director Li himself is very kind and loyal, and cares about the actors very much.
But the only thing he can't do is be sloppy in the filming. This is his forbidden area. No matter who it is, as long as it can't achieve the effect he wants, it will have to be retaken. Regardless of whether it is the king or the queen, it will not work. Here , he only recognizes effects and acting skills.
This is the experience learned by countless predecessors through blood and tears.
Entering Director Li's crew is like entering heaven and hell.
As long as you can overcome this hurdle, you can hope to become a first-line star in the country, or even be written into a textbook, but only if you can overcome this hurdle.
This is also the reason why everyone is trying to squeeze into Director Li's crew.
Thinking of this, while Mo Zhiran was hopeful, she also knew that the road ahead would be difficult.
She probably has to stay in this deep mountain and old forest for a while, but she is not good at anything else, and the thing she is not afraid of most is hardship.
She can definitely bear this hardship!
However, ten minutes later.
"Ah! Rachel! I want to go home! What kind of place is this!"
Mo Zhiran, who is wise and capable and can endure hardships best, was not frightened by the bugs in the tent, nor by the conditions of irregular bathing for a week, but was defeated by the vague signal.
"Rachel, why is there no signal here? Tell me why there is no signal here. Am I going to return to prehistoric life?"
Mo Zhiran raised her cell phone high above her head and searched for a signal in the ethereal void.
But the mobile phone is very weak. Even sending a text message keeps spinning in circles, and finally a red exclamation mark appears.
