Chapter 107 I'll say it again, round face! As long as the face is round...
Organizing files truly requires meticulousness and patience. Numbers must be checked one by one, the order cannot be mixed up, and they must be neatly packed into boxes.
But Shen Li grew up in an environment where he was "unloved by his parents," so what kind of chores hadn't he done? This kind of delicate work was a piece of cake for him.
He quickly got into the zone, his fingers flying across the paper, organizing the files one by one, boxing them, and stacking them neatly. His movements were swift and methodical.
The female teacher looked up at him, a hint of satisfaction flashing in her eyes: "Young man, you're quite quick. Which department are you in?"
"Shen Li, a freshman in the Performing Arts Department."
"A performance major?" The female teacher was a little surprised. "There aren't many performance majors willing to do this kind of meticulous work."
Shen Li smiled憨厚ly: "It's work-study program, so I have to do all kinds of work."
The female teacher nodded and said nothing more.
While organizing the files, Shen Li habitually "scanned" her surroundings.
In this archive room, besides metal cabinets and file boxes, there are also some old photos, old school magazines and the like.
His gaze swept over a pile of old school magazines, and he was suddenly drawn to one with a cover.
The cover features a photo of a woman.
The woman was wearing a 1990s-style dress, had big wavy hair, heavy makeup, and a charming yet slightly wild look in her eyes.
Her figure... Although the photo is in black and white, the curves of her full breasts and buttocks, even after more than 20 years, still exude a breathtaking impact.
Shen Li's eyes nearly popped out. Wasn't this the infamous... oh no, Hua Fengyi, the teacher from the dialogue class?!
He secretly pulled out the school magazine and opened it. Inside was an interview titled "The Flower of Beijing Film Academy, the Queen of the Stage... A Profile of Hua Fengyi, Class of '88, Department of Performing Arts".
The accompanying picture is a still from Hua Fengyi's younger days, wearing a cheongsam, with a graceful figure and captivating eyes, looking exactly like a peerless diva who stepped out of a calendar poster from the Republic of China era.
Shen Li was dumbfounded. Holy crap! Was Teacher Hua this amazing when she was young?!
With those looks, that figure, that aura, he'd definitely be a top star these days!
He secretly took a few photos and sent them to Jingyang.
Jing Yang replied instantly: "Holy crap!!!! Is this Teacher Hua?!?! Did she get a new head?!"
Shen Li replied: "It's the real deal. It's written in the school magazine, Hua Fengyi from the Performing Arts Department, Class of '88."
Jing Yang sent several shocked emojis in a row, then said, "With that face and figure, she could easily outshine a whole bunch of young actresses these days! Why didn't Teacher Hua become famous later?"
Shen Li was also puzzled.
Turning to the last paragraph of the interview, I saw a sentence: "...Due to personal reasons, Hua Fengyi announced her retirement from the entertainment industry on the eve of graduation and will stay at the school to teach. The reasons are not convenient to discuss further."
Retiring from the entertainment industry? Staying at the university to teach? There's a story behind this.
Shen Li gently put the school magazine back, adding a new label to her mental list of teachers, including Hua Fengyi: "A stunning beauty in her youth, she left the entertainment industry for unknown reasons but stayed at the school. A woman with a story."
He continued organizing the files, but he couldn't help but imagine what Teacher Hua looked like when she was young.
That peerless diva in a cheongsam, with alluring eyes and a graceful figure, and now this powerful, ruthless nun in a slit cheongsam...
However, to be fair, Ms. Hua's figure and demeanor are still top-notch among her peers. It's just that compared to her younger self, she is indeed...
Shen Li was just imagining Teacher Hua's stunning beauty in her youth when the female teacher suddenly received a phone call. She frowned, covered the receiver, and said to Shen Li:
"Young man, I'm going out for a bit. There's an urgent matter at the academic affairs office. You continue tidying up here, but don't touch anything in the other cabinets. I'll be back in about half an hour."
"Alright, teacher, you go ahead with your work."
Shen Li nodded obediently, her face perfectly capturing the expression of an "honest, hardworking, and diligent student."
The female teacher left in a hurry. The door to the archives room clicked shut, leaving Shen Li alone.
He listened intently, and the footsteps faded into the distance.
After waiting another half minute to make sure the female teacher wouldn't suddenly turn around, he instantly switched from "well-behaved junior" mode to "professional slacker" mode.
He slung the file on the table, crossed his legs, pulled out his phone, and felt completely at ease.
"Half an hour is enough for me to go through all the information in both groups."
He first clicked on "Daily Payment Group 1 for Extras in Film and Television City".
Goodness, this broken group is like a perpetual motion machine, refreshing from morning till night, with 999+ messages always.
Shen Li's fingers flew upwards, her eyes scanning like a scanner.
The first thing that made him stop was the announcement issued by "Sister Hua"...
"Tomorrow morning, the Qing Dynasty palace drama 'The Legend of Consort Ru' is recruiting 5 female extras to play palace maids. Requirements: Height 160-168 cm, dignified appearance, those with a round face will be given priority."
Daily wage 180, lunch included. Submit a photo of yourself without makeup, don't send me one with heavy filters, I'm not blind.
It exploded again down below.
"Sister Hua! It's me! I played that palace maid role you played last time. The director said I had a 'lucky face,' so he let me stand in two more scenes! [Photo]"
"Sister Hua, look at me! I've gone to such lengths to get this round face, I've literally eaten myself to turn from an oval face into a chubby face, even my mom doesn't recognize me anymore!"
"Sister Hua, my face is round enough, but my chin is a bit pointed, is that okay?"
"Newbie here, looking for mentors! My face is so round, it's like the full moon! My nickname since I was little has been 'Tangyuan' (glutinous rice ball)!"
"Sister Hua! It's me! I have a round face! Last time you said my round face looked lucky!"
"Sister Hua is the most beautiful! Pick me, pick me!"
Sister Hua rarely spoke more in the group chat, and her tone carried a sense of triumph:
"The director praised us today, saying that the selection of these palace maids was excellent; each one has a face like a silver platter, which looks so festive. Those with pointed chins and snake-like faces might be okay for playing concubines, but as palace maids? They just look like they'd bring misfortune to their masters. From now on, for Qing Dynasty dramas, round faces are preferred. You all better get your faces rounder before you come on stage!"
Sister Hua! What should I do if my chin is a bit pointed? I have a pointed chin and a chubby face!
Sister Hua replied with another voice message, her tone carrying a hint of impatience but not genuine annoyance: "Pointy chin? If your chin is pointy, then lower your head! Palace maids in Qing Dynasty dramas are supposed to be meek and obedient. Who told you to hold your head high and compete with the concubines in who's more arrogant? Lower your head, and your double chin will show. Who will even notice if your chin is pointy or not then?"
The comments section immediately exploded.
"Sister Hua, hahaha! She's squeezing out a double chin while looking down! Amazing!"
"I've learned something new! I didn't know a double chin could be used like this!"
"Sister Hua, what about those who are thin? I have a round face but no fat body. Last time I wore a palace maid's uniform, I looked like I was wearing a sack."
Sister Hua replied with another voice message: "I'll say it again, round face! As long as the face is round! I don't care if the rest of the body is fat or thin! Figure it out yourself! Don't ask me everything, I'm not your mother!"
Shen Li laughed so hard she almost slipped off her chair. This Sister Hua really knows how to play the "round-face politics" game perfectly!
