However, Youlan and Qingchen would not show their faces outside the camera and would let them rehearse on their own.
Moreover, when they were assigning the shows, Qingchen and Youlan didn’t care how they should choose in order to win. They just let them choose according to their own preferences.
But in Gu Fei’s group, he did want them to win. Everything could wait until they won, as winning would give them more options.
It was really too different. 𝓷𝑶𝒱𝑒𝓁𝓊𝒮𝗯.𝑐𝐎𝑚
The people from the other teams couldn’t help but think.
Gu Fei’s group quickly came to a decision.
On the other hand, Qingchen’s side had a longer discussion. It seemed that they were very conflicted. Everyone had their own ideas.
It wasn’t until Jinyuan reminded them that the ten minutes were up that Qingchen’s team had no choice but to end the discussion.
“Teacher Gu Fei, please choose the first scene.” Jinyuan said.
The content of the performance this time included comedy, scenes of the character’s integrity and contradiction, and tragic scenes.
Gu Fei decisively gave up on the idea of the comedy performance.
“I choose the second one.” Gu Fei replied, “There Will Be a Tomorrow.”
This was the first scene they wanted.
As for who would act in the role, they would decide later.
“This scene is very suitable for the members of our team, and the tension in this part is very strong.” Gu Fei said, “I believe that with the strength of our members, we’ll definitely be able to put on a good show.”
Gu Fei’s team members could not hide their excitement.
Gu Fei had chosen such a good scene for them, so they had to work hard!
“Teacher Guo, which one will your team choose?” Jinyuan asked.
Qingchen smiled and said, “We’ll choose ‘We’re Different.”‘
The members of Gu Fei’s party all had a subtle expression on their faces.
“We’re Different” was one of the two comedies that Gu Fei’s team had mentioned earlier.
“We need someone to act in this comedy too.” Gu Fei frowned.
“I’ll take it on.” Jiang Xun said.
Everyone looked at her.
The conversation between Gu Fei and Jiang Xun earlier made everyone not want to choose the comedies.
Choosing a comedy was equivalent to comparing who was worse, and then the relatively better person would win.
Even if they won, in the eyes of the audience, they would only be able to pick a general from the dwarves. There would not be any outstanding performance. Even if the audience remembered you, they would probably remember you in a
bad way.
Jiang Xun actually chose the comedy?
Some people’s expressions changed. Could it be that what Jiang Xun said just now was a lie?
In fact, Jiang Xun had deliberately made the comedy sound so bad that no one dared to act in it, so that she could act in it herself?
Liu Xiuwei hammered his head slightly, his eyes darting around in his eye sockets as he constantly thought about it.
Perhaps Jiang Xun really had such thoughts.
Otherwise, why would she be so selfless?
Looking at Jiang Xun’s usual style and methods since she debuted, she was not someone who would sacritice herselt tor others.
Moreover, if Jiang Xun had really sacrificed herself for others, how could she have reached this point?
Indeed, she had Mufeng as her backer now.
However, she did not have him from the beginning.
When she debuted, she hadn’t gotten together with Mufeng yet.
She became famous completely on her own.
This was enough to show how skilled she was.
Therefore, Jiang Xun would definitely not do such a thing for no reason.
Xiuwei’s gaze fell on Jiang Xun’s face and he carefully observed it, wanting to see some clues from Jiang Xun’s face.
However, he was disappointed. Jiang Xun’s expression was calm and emotionless.
“You’re acting?” Gu Fei was surprised. “This is a comedy, you’ve never acted in one before.”
“Jiang Jiang, do you really want to act? It’s very difficult to act in this,” Qiyao added.
Even though she had always been very confident in Jiang Xun, she was worried that Jiang Xun would be eliminated early because of her comedy performance.
Jiang Xun smiled and said, “Since I debuted, I’ve acted as an assassin, an antisocial murderer, an ordinary person who works hard, and a brave female reporter. All of them are serious dramas. I’ve never come into contact with comedy. I’m quite curious.”
“You know, I try not to take on repetitive roles.” Jiang Xun said, “It just so happens that comedy isn’t a repeat of these things. I don’t know if I can challenge it with my current level, but I want to give it a try.”
Gu Fei nodded. “You can really give it a try.”
Gu Fei knew that Jiang Xun had never come to this show to win.
She just wanted to take the opportunity to play more types of roles.
Thinking about this show, each scene was only 20 minutes long, and in every scene she could play a new character.
Jiang Xun was here to practice.
Moreover, winning or losing didn’t matter to her.
Like Qiyao, she didn’t need to worry about resources even if she lost, unlike the others, who came for fame.
Gu Fei nodded and was just about to agree when Xiuwei quickly interjected, “I want to act too!”
Gu Fei looked at him in surprise. “You want to act in it too?”
“Didn’t I just say that there’s no advantage in acting in a comedy? Because you’re not good at it, it’s difficult for you to bring out your acting skills through comedy. If you were to act in other shows, even if you lose in the end, you could still let the audience see your acting skills. Moreover, the final outcome does not necessarily mean that your acting skills are inferior to the winner. It includes the subjective judgment of the judges and the audience. When the show is officially broadcast, there will be more viewers watching it through television stations and online platforms. They will have their own different judgments. By then, there will be a lot of viewers supporting the loser.” “Yeah, didn’t we agree not to pick the comedies?” someone said.
It’s rare that Jiang Xun is willing to choose the comedy herself. Why didn’t he agree to such a good thing, and instead take the initiative to jump out and act?
What was he thinking!
However, Xiuwei was certain that Jiang Xun was deliberately not letting them act so that she could act herself. He insisted, “I do want to act. What Teacher Gu and Jiang Xun said just now makes sense. But after thinking about it, I still want to challenge myself.”
Gu Fei looked at Xiuwei for a while before suddenly smiling.
He saw through Xiuwei’s thoughts.
Since Xiuwei was a petty man, although Jiang Xun wanted to help them advance, he thought that Jiang Xun was up to no good, so he might as well fulfill his wish.
Gu Fei looked at Jiang Xun and saw the mockery in her eyes.
It was obvious that she had seen through Xiuwei’s thoughts.
“Then why don’t we let Teacher Liu act in this comedy?” Gu Fei asked Jiang Xun.
“Sure.” Jiang Xun nodded. “I don’t mind.”
“Alright, then I’ll give it to Teacher Liu.” Gu Fei made the decision in front of everyone, leaving Xiuwei no chance to go back on his words.
Xiuwei didn’t understand.
He was dumbfounded as he looked back and forth between Jiang Xun and Gu Fei’s faces.
Wasn’t Jiang Xun agreeing too readily?
Was Jiang Xun doing this on purpose?
She had deliberately said that she wanted to act, so that people would suspect her, and then they would take the initiative to jump out and say that they wanted to act.o
Would Jiang Xun go with the flow and give this comedy to someone else?
