Dai Xiang handled things properly, with just a few words, everything was arranged.
In fact, normally, such a small matter wouldn’t take much effort; it’s just about arranging soone to ’take care’ of things.
If Qiu Xue was willing to step forward, the completion might have been even higher.
But obviously, Qiu Xue wants to maintain the image of a pure white lotus, clear as crystal, noble and virtuous; how could she personally co forward to do such dirty things of bullying her fellow troupe mbers?
So, such filthy matters had to be completed by Dai Xiang, yet she did not mind at all.
Dai Xiang took the limited edition crimson lipstick, gently applying it to her lips; it was a gift from Qiu Xue, a form of indirect compensation.
Benefits that co to you without reason! Dai Xiang had no reason to refuse!
The world says the entertainnt industry is a big dye vat, full of temptations both on and off stage, even good people will slowly pick up so bad habits; maintaining one’s original intentions is a rare thing to achieve.
Intrigue, open and secret fights, deception and vying for fa and profit, these perhaps have long beco commonplace!
Though at this ti, the entertainnt industry has not generally developed, but that doesn’t an they are free from struggles.
Because, even in the last century, during the peak period of opera art developnt, the phenonon of fierce competition for roles was already in full swing!
If you don’t adapt to the rules here, you’ll be eliminated, and there will be no chance to stand out ever again.
Bei Jiafei sat on the bench in the waiting area, waiting for the stage manager to call her on stage.
She only wore a layer of foundation on her face, and a bit of lipstick that was so faint it couldn’t be any lighter.
Bei Jiafei knew that such makeup was not suitable for the stage, but she couldn’t resist their exclusion; as soon as she walked into the dressing room, they would start attacking her, leaving her unable to even touch the makeup she needed, let alone keeping her costu clean.
She lowered her eyes, looking at the wrinkled costu, the original white was almost replaced by a grayish black, the lace under the skirt had multiple threads pulled, looking very ssy; such clothes should be discarded, yet sohow it was left for her...
Actually, not long ago, Gu Tong told her about the details of this performance and had already inford her that she might be targeted, so she needed to be ntally prepared.
Bei Jiafei prepared herself ntally as Gu Tong said, but even so, she didn’t expect they would go this far...
It was still sowhat beyond her expectations.
"After the group dance ’Eastern Hope’ finishes, it will be the solo performance. Bei Jiafei, are you ready?"
The stage manager called out, the sound echoing throughout the backstage.
"Ready..."
Bei Jiafei forced herself to perk up, tugged at her wrinkled dress, and stood up. She quietly encouraged herself, gripping her cello tightly.
The staff noticed her attire and frowned.
However, being backstage personnel, he was used to seeing such things and didn’t say much, instead saying, "Give the cello first. I’ll take it to the stage. When you’re up, say a few words of self-introduction, then start playing. Rember, don’t let the introduction exceed a minute, and don’t let the performance exceed four minutes, got it?"
"Got it!"
There are many rules for this kind of live performance. As a trainee in the arts class, even if she doesn’t perform often, Bei Jiafei should know the ins and outs.
The staff nodded with satisfaction, taking Bei Jiafei’s cello and sending it to the stage.
