It was not easy to make Yang Na evaluate it as “interesting.” Lu Zhen sat up slightly and asked with a smile, “Who is it?”

“She’s a university student who has just entered the industry and hasn’t graduated yet. Her appearance is very recognizable, and there’s a hint of Bai Mei’s charm between her eyes.”

Bai Mei was a famous female celebrity who became famous in the country 30 years ago. She was the memory of an era. In Country Z, Bai Mei could be said to be a household name. Even today, the television station would still play the television drama that Bai Mei had acted in every summer vacation.

Bai Mei’s few classic television dramas had probably been broadcasted hundreds of times on major television stations. In the hearts of the Chinese audience, they were classics among classics. No matter how many times they watched it, they would not get tired of it.

Lu Zhen also liked Bai Mei very much. In her previous life, when she first entered the entertainment industry, she had even imitated Bai Mei’s performance method. Hearing Yang Na’s description, Lu Zhen became even more interested. “And then?”

“However, this young lady doesn’t major in film and television acting, so her acting skills are very ordinary. The director doesn’t seem to like her either. He sounded a little impatient when he was explaining the scene to her.”

Hearing this, Lu Zhen was not surprised. Although having Bai Mei’s temperament and charm was a huge advantage, the entertainment industry had never lacked beautiful people.

It was a good thing to look like a certain superstar, but if this was the only advantage, there was nothing special about it. This advantage could only be combined with other characteristics or abilities to have a chance of becoming famous in the entertainment industry.

Yang Na had also said that this newcomer did not study acting. If she forced her way into the industry, she would not even have basic skills. Naturally, she would not be able to go far in the entertainment industry.

If the most popular people in the entertainment industry did not have any acting skills, then this young lady might still have a chance to climb up in the industry. However, looking at the current entertainment industry, the most popular people had good acting skills. Lu Zhen and Yang Na were the representatives.

With Lu Zhen and Yang Na as comparison, the audience was even more unwilling to forgive those celebrities with bad acting skills.

Before Lu Zhen became famous, there were a few years in the entertainment industry where the environment was very exaggerated. In those years, a few celebrities with ordinary acting skills were pushed to the top by capital. However, only fans bought the works they produced. Ordinary audiences could not stand it at all.

To a certain extent, Lu Zhen’s popularity had actually blown in a breeze for the entertainment industry.

Lu Zhen was beautiful enough and her acting skills were quite good. This made the audience understand that they were not only worthy of watching those trash works, so their expectations of celebrities were getting higher and higher.

Now, whenever someone said that the celebrity they liked was beautiful enough, the audience would say, “She’s beautiful, but being beautiful doesn’t mean that she’s a good actress. Acting isn’t something that can be done with just a face. Go back and practice!”

With outstanding actresses like Lu Zhen and Yang Na who could support half of the domestic entertainment industry, the standards of the capitalists choosing those to nurture also changed. Just being good-looking was not enough. They had to be capable.

Yang Na continued to explain. “l only went to play a supporting role, so I didn’t stay for long. Moreover, when I went, the drama was about to be completed. The second day after 1 went, the production team was going to film a battle scene. The young lady played the male lead’s junior sister. Her scenes in that scene were relatively important, but she never performed well.”

Yang Na took a sip of water and sighed. “At that time, no one spoke at the event location. The director’s face was very ugly and he only asked her to do it again and again. After the shooting that day, the young lady was covered in bruises and the corners of her mouth were broken.’

Lu Zhen listened quietly and did not express any opinion.

“After that scene was filmed, everyone was very tired. After work, the director hugged all the main leads who were filming that scene and told everyone that they had worked hard, but he didn’t hug her.”

Hearing this, Lu Zhen was already a little immersed. She had never experienced such a thing before, but she was still quite capable of empathy. If she were that young lady on the set and was treated differently by the director in front of so many people, she would definitely break down.

Moreover, this young lady had just entered the industry not long ago. Her ability to withstand pressure and mental fortitude might not be that good.

This way, the blow she would suffer would definitely be even more serious.

Yang Na changed her sitting position and leaned against the sofa. “That young lady didn’t say anything at that time, but I could tell that she was feeling terrible. A few days later, there was another big scene. There were even a few close-up shots of that young lady..”
