Chapter 1 I can copy other people’s acting skills! (Ch 1)

[It’s just a novel, please don’t bring it into reality. I won’t put it in my brain storage, for fear that I’ll use it for hot pot. Also, the movies and TV series in the book will not be started/released completely according to the real time. Please don’t bring it into the real time (^_−)☆]

“Be a mara, be a sober mara,

If knowing yourself is not enough, then you can only keep it private! “

In a film set somewhere in Hengdian,

An extra was bored and scrolling through Tik Tok. Next to him, Qi Jia was staring blankly ahead.

His eyes were fixed on the large white area exposed at the neckline of the heroine when she bent over.

It’s not because of lust, nor because of lusting after her body.

It was just because he suddenly noticed a gray halo coming out of the actor next to the heroine.

It was like a Super Saiyan transformation, surrounding him.

Then, he heard in his mind,

With a sound of “ding~”,

“Replicable performance detected around the host, please confirm replication.”

Before he could figure out what was going on, he was startled awake by the assistant director’s shout.

“Hey! Those two! Why don’t you take your place and wait for me to treat you?”

Qi Jia and the group of actors watching Douyin hurriedly ran to their positions, picked up a big knife and stood up.

He is now in a crew called “JK Monkey King vs. Pan Jinlian”.

Yes, you read that right.

The Monkey King in this magic-adapted movie is a female monkey, and she is not wearing a fighting robe, but a JK with black stockings.

Pan Jinlian was transformed into a male demon, a lotus demon.

Qi Jia is one of the many Maras in Huaguo Mountain.

After standing up,

The script supervisor hit the clapboard, and the filming officially began. As a minor character, he had no lines.

Just run around the field.

As he ran, he talked to the system in his mind.

“copy!”

As he issued instructions in his mind,

He could see with his naked eyes the gray halo on the double.

Separate out a group of identical ones and merge them into your own body.

“Ding Dong, successfully copied [Physical Attribute – Strength +1]”

“Current strength attribute: 1.6”

“First time using the system, reward for action acting skills – martial arts +1”

“Current martial arts attribute: 1.3”

In an instant, Qi Jia felt that some martial arts routines appeared in his mind.

He felt like he could do twenty backflips in a row without taking a breath if he needed to.

This, this, this…could this be the legendary golden finger!

As a reminder sounded in my mind,

Qi Jia also became excited. He usually read a lot of novels.

I also imagined that one day I would get a system and be able to defeat everything in my life.

I didn’t expect that this day would finally come, hahaha, wow, it finally worked!

Qi Jia shouted with joy in his heart.

“Crack!”

The director shouted loudly, indicating that this shot was finally over.

The Mara rushed to the shade to lie down and rest.

Running around in a furry outfit under the scorching sun at nearly 30 degrees Celsius is unbearable for anyone.

During the break, someone took out his phone and posted a video.

In recent years, short videos have become more and more popular.

Many extras have become big Vs and made a lot of money by shooting short videos.

Some even successfully transformed from extras to stars.

Then, others followed suit.

Qi Jia also shot a few, but not many people watched them, so he gave up later.

Under the envious gazes of the crowd,

The leading actors returned to their dedicated lounge leisurely, enjoying the air conditioning, cold drinks, and the service of assistants.

Qi Jia didn’t care about others.

At this point he was completely immersed in the system.

I saw a blank interface.

Now it has changed a lot,

There are three more options: “Attributes, Achievements, and Training Room.”

Click on the attribute option, and you will see the detailed record of various acting skills’ attribute points, for example:

“property”

[Line skills: 0.3]

[Expression Management: 0.5]

[Body coordination: 0.1]

[Strength: 1.6]

[Martial Arts: 1.3]

…

There are hundreds of them, but most of them are in the order of tenths.

There are many gray states, showing zero.

The highest is martial arts and strength, because the attributes have just been copied,

Qi Jia looked at the martial arts attributes and according to the introduction,

The martial arts attribute can improve the beauty and fluency of your fighting movements in martial arts scenes,

The strength attribute is easy to understand, it can enhance your strength.

Just when he was about to take a look at the other two options,

The assistant director came over and shouted.

“Get ready, guys. The second scene is about to begin!”

The voice fell,

The extras were all complaining, and it was hard to get a chance to lie down for a while.

The ones that need to be prepared in advance are the group performances.

The leading actor usually arrives late after everyone is ready.

This is the current industry ecology.

After hearing the discussion, the stage manager nearby frowned and started scolding everyone.

Compared to the discontented emotions of others, Qi Jia was much calmer.

As soon as the director finished shouting, he quickly stood up and was the first to enter the hole.

He is 21 years old this year. His two and a half years of acting career has taught him to accept all kinds of unequal treatment.

The entertainment industry is like this. Before you become famous, no one will treat you as a human being.

When you become famous, even if you are a dog, others will treat you as their master.

As one movie star said,

“When you become famous, you will be surrounded by good people.”

Two and a half years ago, after the college entrance examination, he was admitted to a very good second-tier university.

But the high tuition fees are not affordable for a family that has been farming for generations.

In order to reduce the burden on the family, I heard that being a star can make a lot of money.

So he left a letter late at night.

He started his life in Hengdian alone. Although his parents kept calling him to persuade him to go back,

But knowing that his family was in financial difficulty, he chose to refuse.

Gradually, his parents stopped advising him and just told him to take good care of himself.

But the reality is always cruel.

At first, he thought that God would let down those who worked hard, and that as long as he worked hard,

You will definitely become a star, drive a luxury car, live in a big villa, and be accompanied by beautiful women.

As a result, I was soon slapped in the face by reality.

I had no ability, no connections, no noble people, and I couldn’t even be a supporting actor at the beginning. I almost starved to death.

Finally, it was his current landlord who took him in because he was young and pitiful.

He was introduced to some group leaders and with their guidance, he gradually got some minor roles.

Barely able to support myself,

After experiencing the beatings of society, Qi Jia’s mentality has become much more pragmatic.

He is now thinking about taking an actor’s license exam.

This is a certificate issued by the Hengdian Actors Association. You can take the exam as long as you pay the money.

Of course it does matter. You don’t have to pay, and the certificate will be issued directly.

The association invites some directors or screenwriters to serve as examiners every six months.

After you pass, you will be issued an actor certificate.

With this certificate, you are registered in the Hengdian Actors Association.

No more squatting in the square on a hot day to grab a minor role.

Some casting directors will come to you, and your income will be several times that of extras.

Just like the play he performed today, he only earned 200 yuan a day, and he had to give 20% to the group leader.

It only costs 160 yuan, it’s better to go to the factory to screw the screws.

But it’s different after I became a formal actor. I might make 500 to 600 yuan a day.

Even the good ones can earn over a thousand, if they can become special actors of the crew,

Then you won’t have to worry about having no work to do until this crew finishes filming.

Qi Jia had taken the test many times before, but failed every time.

But this time it was different. He was confident that he could pass it.

Because he has a system that can copy other people’s acting skills,

Life, which was originally full of fog, suddenly became clear. Qi Jia had never felt that life was so hopeful.

He felt that the day when he would become a big star was not far away.
