Chapter 130
This period of time, for the contestants of Actor Training Camp, felt both fulfilling and endless.
Rising at dawn every day and only resting at eleven at night wasn't just testing their acting abilities, but also their physical and psychological endurance.
"It's over, I feel like I'm going to collapse sooner or later."
In Group A's training room, a buzz-cut young man couldn't help complaining quietly during a break.
With the livestream cameras present, he could only lower his voice, not daring to show his emotions too obviously.
Е n üḿа̊
Yang Gu'an pushed up the glasses on his nose bridge and shrugged: "But don't you feel like you've gained a lot lately?"
They had master instructors and targeted professional training guidance. As long as they put in the hard work, everyone could make tremendous progress.

The buzz-cut young man sighed: "You don't have any weaknesses, and Teacher Ke Hai has already assigned you to perform classic scenes—but I'm different! I have to spend several hours every day on physical training, which is exhausting."
As he said this, the buzz-cut young man couldn't help glancing at the training room opposite theirs.
Adjacent to Group A was Group F.
"Until now, I'm the only one in Group A still doing physical and dance training," he said with a bitter face. "My training progress seems no different from Group F."
Wе̇ b ñ о v̀ el Ě num̈а
Almost all contestants in Group A had strong abilities. As the bottom performer in the group, the buzz-cut young man clearly struggled to keep up with the pace.
Yang Gu'an comforted him: "It's okay, your dialogue foundation is strong, and your performance talent isn't bad. Teacher Ke Hai has you practicing physical movement mainly to strengthen your weak points."
Yao Bianliang had already made detailed arrangements.
Currently, the contestants mainly needed to train in three areas—vocal music, dialogue, and physical movement.

Vocal music included professional voice training, pronunciation training, and specialized song training.
For actors, singing helped them open up, build confidence, and give their emotional expressions stronger expressiveness and influence. At the same time, vocal training could also enhance an actor's dialogue skills.
Ẃ е b̊ ňо v̈е l Ѐǹ u m̄ а̊
"I heard that in Group F, many people are still doing dialogue training," Yang Gu'an said, shaking his head slightly. "Their progress is truly the slowest."
For many contestants, dialogue was the most neglected aspect.
After all, if your dialogue skills weren't good, you could always use voice actors to fill in!
Voice actors not only delivered lines with rich emotion but also had very pleasant voices. A good voice actor could often elevate a character's stature.
Since there was a shortcut available, why bother putting in so much effort to practice dialogue?
Unfortunately now, under intense training pressure, they had no choice but to desperately practice their dialogue skills.

Professional voice training, professional pronunciation training, professional dialogue training, and the final level of character dialogue training—these were all main components of their training.
Sometimes, after a full day of training, their throats would practically be smoking.
After completing the first two training phases, they would move to the final stage—physical classes.
Basic dance training, liberation of natural instincts, emotional control training, character building, and finally sketch practice—these were the main components of physical classes.
Upon successfully completing the previous parts, they would reach the final phase—classic scene interpretation.
This would be their final performance presented on screen.

"By the way, have you memorized all your lines?" the buzz-cut young man asked, somewhat concerned. "I heard our final performance competition overlaps with 'Good Drama PK Competition'—they're being held on the same day."
"The contestants in 'Good Drama PK Competition' only need to rehearse the script... but we've spent so much time on basic training."

Saying this, he couldn't help but sigh: "I'm really worried our progress won't meet the standard."
Their current schedule had basic training in the morning and evening, with script rehearsal in the afternoon.
This had been going on for almost a week.
Before long, they would have to perform on stage and present their final work.
Е̌ nu m̂а
The timeframe was extremely tight!
Yang Gu'an also felt this was true.
He lowered his gaze in contemplation, then slowly said: "Why don't we spend more time training then?"
The buzz-cut young man paused, his eyes widening: "Are you serious?"
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The production team's requirements were already very strict.
At this point, they were only getting 6 hours of sleep each day, and after a full day of training, they were already physically and mentally exhausted.
W̆е́ b̀n ö v̌ е̌l̆ E_n ū m̌ a
How could they increase their training load on this foundation?
Yang Gu'an looked at him earnestly: "The lunch break is one and a half hours, and dinner time is one hour. These can all be utilized."
Buzz-cut young man: "..."
As expected of you, truly ruthless.
Yao Bianliang had been in quite a relaxed mood lately.
The situation with the talent show was better than she had imagined. In the program, many contestants showed promising potential.

"Yang Gu'an, Shi Shan, Zhong Yinan—these few people are good seedlings," Yao Bianliang said to Wen Xuan beside her while making notes on the contestant list.
Wen Xuan nodded: "Yang Gu'an is from Group A. His foundation is already very solid, and he trains very diligently. Shi Shan is slightly lacking in performance techniques, but she has a natural spark and is also promising material."
She paused, shifting her gaze to the last name: "Zhong Yinan... he seems to be from Group E, right?"
"Yes," Yao Bianliang nodded. "However, his talent is very good, and he trains diligently. He should achieve a good ranking in this performance."
During this period, although the mentors hadn't accompanied the contestants full-time, they often went over to provide guidance.
After so many days, they had a clear understanding of each contestant's situation and level.
W еb̊ñ о̌ v̌е̃ľ Еn u̇.m̃ а̇
They could pay special attention to contestants who had performed well during this time.
As for the final stage performance, it would depend on the contestants' on-site performance.

Ke Hai sat on the nearby sofa, twirling a pen in his hand: "I recall there's also a particularly hardworking contestant in Group F."
"You mean that contestant called Bi Yi?" Female Director Li Yi blinked her eyes. "I've heard about him too. He arrives half an hour earlier than other contestants every morning. During lunch and dinner times, he's also training diligently."
Bi Yi's acting level was terrible, and his fundamentals weren't solid.
However, during this period, he had been truly diligent, appearing every day with obvious dark circles under his eyes and bloodshot eyes. Even many livestream viewers had been moved by him.
W е̇ b̀n̊ǒv е̃.l̊ Е n̆ u m̌_а̇
His fans were extremely heartbroken, crying in the super topic area every day about "how hard Brother is working."
Ke Hai's fingers stroked his chin as he tentatively looked toward Yao Bianliang: "For contestants like this who may not have great ability but work very hard, should we be a bit more lenient in our evaluations?"
According to their original plan, during the performance competition, the mentors would evaluate exactly as the contestants performed, striving to ensure all evaluations were objective.
However, in Ke Hai's view, such a serious and diligent attitude was also very worthy of encouragement.

If the criticism was too harsh, it would be too hard on the contestants.
Yao Bianliang shook her head: "Let's not do that. Since we've set the standard, we should strictly adhere to it."
Ѐ n̆ŭ m̌a.і̌ d̀
Acting skill was the only standard for their variety show's scoring.
If they gave special treatment to diligent and hardworking contestants, it wouldn't be fair to other skilled contestants.
Veteran Nian Anchen, sitting nearby, cleared his throat and slowly said: "Actually, I don't think that Bi Yi is particularly hardworking."
Hearing this, everyone was slightly stunned and turned to look at him.
Nian Anchen pushed up his reading glasses and said leisurely: "He puts on a show of hard work on the surface, but in reality, he doesn't think deeply or put in mental effort."
"Generally speaking, we call this kind of 'false effort' situation 'going through the motions.'"

Ke Hai: "..." That seemed to be exactly the case?
Thinking carefully, although Bi Yi practiced diligently every day, his progress wasn't obvious.
His learning efficiency was very low. Apart from long study hours, there was no other difference—so he probably wasn't truly dedicated to studying deeply.
Female Director Li Yi nodded, strongly agreeing: "That's what I think too. His effort seems more like a performance, purely to establish a 'hardworking persona' for himself."
Ke Hai was completely speechless.
He touched his nose somewhat sheepishly: "Alright then, we'll evaluate his acting objectively."
Е̃ n ũ m̀a
These contestants participating in the variety show were too calculating.
He had felt some pity for Bi Yi's hard work and diligence, but it seemed misplaced.

Yao Bianliang smiled: "That's right. When the performance competition begins, all the teachers should show no mercy. Evaluate as you see fit."
"Additionally, try to be as detailed as possible in your evaluations, mentioning their specific strengths and weaknesses, and providing suggestions for improvement."
Everyone nodded, expressing their understanding.
Nian Anchen pushed up his reading glasses, his small eyes narrowing into slits.
W̃e b̄ nоvеl Ѐ.n̆ um̂ӑ
He smiled: "Finally encountering a variety show where we don't have to say pretty words."
In other variety shows, which evaluator's dialogue wasn't dictated by the script? As judges, they didn't even have the right to evaluate independently.
But now, they could finally show their expertise!
"I wonder what script 'Good Drama PK Competition' has prepared," Ke Hai mused, stroking his chin.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
They had no script here, with mentors evaluating freely. But "Good Drama PK Competition" surely had prepared a brilliant script.
He wondered if their variety show format had any chance of winning.

As they conversed, the clock hand on the wall ticked steadily. Below the right side of the pointer, the date was clearly marked.
Now, only two days remained until the on-stage performance.

Countless hashtags emerged like bamboo shoots after rain, as if by agreement, with various marketing accounts beginning to post articles.
The feud between the two top female celebrities hadn't ended. According to the hype trajectory, their dispute would reach its climax on the day of the performance competition.
The addition of a super-popular director as a judge also gave this performance competition more highlights.
Еnü m̆ ӑ. і̆ d̆
While "Good Drama PK Competition" was being hotly discussed, the popularity of "Actor Training Camp" seemed like a flash in the pan, already relegated to obscurity.
Although both sides started livestreams simultaneously, the levels of interest were completely different.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Apart from some die-hard fans who followed the livestream, almost no one else was paying attention to Yao Bianliang's situation.
Even the posts in the super topic area seemed sparse.
[The first competition is finally starting! But why do I feel like there are fewer people in our super topic area?]
[Yeah, the training content is repetitive and boring, so many people have left.]
Еn̊ umа
[Today's interest is particularly low. Many people have probably gone to watch "Good Drama PK Competition."]
[Haha, I'm watching "Good Drama PK Competition" too! I plan to switch between the two variety shows—whichever is more exciting, I'll watch that one.]
Backstage, in the preparation hall, Group F was fully prepared.
According to the grouping order, they needed to go on stage first.

"Bi Yi, aren't you nervous?" A teammate beside him barely maintained composure, his eyes showing anxiety. "This is my first time on stage. Just thinking about all those cameras makes me nervous..."
Bi Yi secretly rolled his eyes.
W̌е̌ b n ō v ѐl Е̇n ũm̊ а
Pure nobodies in the industry were just like this, getting nervous over small matters.
But honestly, he had never considered Group F members as his competition. His real opponents were the members of Group A.
Thinking this, Bi Yi's gaze inadvertently fell on Yang Gu'an.
This roommate had ordinary looks, no standout personality traits, and his emotional intelligence was off the charts bad.
Someone like him could never become popular through a variety show!
"Group F members, please get ready. You can go on stage now."

The staff member in front waved them over, and Bi Yi finally brought his attention back.
The content they were performing today was a spy thriller scene.
The male lead's undercover identity had been caught with a critical flaw. In this scene, everyone cast suspicious glances at him, but he ultimately navigated the danger using exceptional courage and wisdom.
[Brother Yi fans reporting in, let's go!]
[Haha, this is my favorite spy film segment, really looking forward to it.]
[The viewership of "Good Drama PK Competition" next door has doubled. It's so quiet here.]
Ёn̈ ũm̌а̀
[This variety show is not only boring but also doesn't allow voting. Poor Brother Yi having to stay in such a place.]
[Tsk, among these contestants I only recognize Bi Yi. I remember his performance in "Good Drama PK Competition" was very good, with above-average acting skills.]

As the stage lights came on, Group F's performance officially began.
Bi Yi was positioned at the center C position, with the other 8 characters either standing or sitting, forming a semicircle around him.
The lighting around the stage dimmed, with only a bright beam in the center, projecting onto the 9 people.
When the word "action" sounded, everyone's expressions changed.
Èn̂ u m а̊
The long-haired girl playing the male lead's fiancée quickly stepped forward, tightly grabbing Bi Yi's arm. Her eyes reddened, and tears instantly spilled out.
"Tell me... this isn't true. You've been wronged, right?" Her voice trembled.
Bi Yi slightly lowered his eyes, expression calm, merely quietly advising her to let go.
"No, I won't..." The fiancée shook her head tearfully. She slowly stepped back, her legs slightly weak, as if about to collapse.

Seemingly remembering something, the fiancée suddenly turned to look at her brother sitting at the judgment seat, as if seeking confirmation.
But her brother only slightly shook his head at her. His eyes flashed with complex, pained emotions, but his face remained extremely serious.
Ѐnü_m̂ а́
The camera swept across each observer's face one by one, giving close-ups.
The girl's admirer could barely stay seated, wanting to stand up and support her. His hand moved slightly, then stiffly stopped.
The warlord's son leaned against the chair back at an angle, curling his lips into a smile, laughing softly with interest.
The middle-aged commander's face remained calm as he sat high in his chair, his eyes showing determination.
Finally, the camera returned to Bi Yi's face.
Bi Yi's expression still showed no change, maintaining his composure, making it impossible to know what he was thinking.

[Is it my imagination, or does Bi Yi seem like a wooden post...]
[I suspect he's wondering when he can quickly get off work.]
[What do you all understand? The male lead's personality is like this. He's undercover, so his emotions naturally can't be shown!]
As the interrogation gradually progressed, the situation became increasingly tense.
The commander and the male lead's dialogue went back and forth, confronting each other sharply. Although there was no action, every word already contained a clash of swords and knives.
The chief interrogator pressed step by step, but all were cleverly defused by the male lead. The evidence presented couldn't prove the male lead's undercover identity.
Ẃ ѐ b̌ n̂ӧ v̊ ĕ ĺ È.n̂ u m̃ а
"Enough," the fiancée's brother finally took a deep breath, slowly interrupting the commander's questioning. "I just want to know, that night, why were you at that place—don't try to brush me off with some secret mission, we need a clear answer."
After speaking, his eagle-like eyes locked tightly on Bi Yi, with a piercing gaze that seemed able to easily see through people's hearts.

This was a minor climactic part. The livestream camera again switched to each supporting actor's face.
The female police officer's expression was serious, with suspicious eyes firmly fixed on Bi Yi.
The fiancée looked worried, her fingers tightly gripping the armrest, as if her breathing had almost stopped.
The friend's expression looking at Bi Yi was extremely complex—doubt, tension, expectation... countless emotions intertwined as his gaze was cast over.
Ŵ еb̊n о v̄ е ĺ Е_n̆ u ṁă
Bi Yi still maintained his expressionless state, slowly saying: "Because... Project Dawn Star."
[No way, such an explosive line, how could it be delivered so dryly?]
[Everyone's expressions are rich, but Bi Yi looks like he's asleep! Can he show some reaction?]
[What reaction do you want from the male lead? Should he be dramatic in this situation?]
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
[The male lead naturally needs to stay calm, this tone is very normal. Haters, stop the forced criticism.]
[I think Brother Yi acted very well! He brought to life the male lead's strategic planning and calm composure. The other supporting actors seem like clowns in comparison.]
Е̂num̃ а̃.ï d
A small-scale dispute broke out in the bullet comments, while the performance on stage continued.
Bi Yi consistently maintained his blank expression, occasionally laughing or making a couple of subtle movements when necessary.
He was already skilled at this acting mode.
As long as he remained expressionless, maintaining an aloof calmness, his performance wouldn't appear awkward.
Moreover, this type of performance could be justified—
After all, the male lead was deep-thinking and had a cold personality, so this performance was reasonable!

[Phew, that was close... fortunately the male lead discovered the flaw in the other's words.]
[As a neutral viewer, I think Bi Yi's acting is fine, doesn't feel out of place.]
[The fiancée sister acted so well! I want to become her fan, what should I do?]
Finally, under the male lead's constant guidance, the topic moved toward his pre-set direction, and the others finally let go of their suspicions.
"I knew it... it definitely wasn't you!"
The fiancée ran over crying, hugging him tightly.

Bi Yi lowered his eyes, expressionlessly hugging her back.
"Cut!"

The stage lights brightened again, and the contestants gradually emerged from their immersed state.
Contestant No. 76, who played the fiancée, had the most emotional ups and downs among everyone. Wiping the tears from the corner of her eye, she took a deep breath, finally barely calming her heart.
However, her eyes were still slightly red.
[This No. 76 fiancée sister really acted well, doesn't seem like a newcomer at all.]
W еb́ ň о.v e l̃ Е̇ ṅ ũ m̈ ã
[Brother Yi also acted wonderfully, effortlessly outshining all the supporting characters!]
[Everyone performed strongly. Placed in "Good Drama PK Competition," they should all be considered skilled performers, right?]
[I don't know what the production team was thinking, why put such good contestants in Group F?]
[Personally, I think the level of excellence in this performance is almost on par with the semi-finals of "Good Drama PK Competition."]

The quality of this performance truly exceeded many people's expectations.
Originally, as Group F members, most contestants' acting wouldn't be very good. So everyone had lowered their expectations.
Е̄n̂u m а
Unexpectedly, they delivered such a perfect answer!
Almost every contestant perfectly achieved immersion. The entire performance never felt awkward, and many details were handled very well.
Although it was just a preliminary selection, compared to the semi-final performances of "Good Drama PK Competition," it was hardly inferior.
The on-site audience also began discussing in low voices, each person's eyes showing anticipation and curiosity.
With such a good performance, the contestants would probably receive good scores, right?
Wonder how many would get 9 points, and could anyone get a perfect score?
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
"Swoosh------"
After the contestants lined up in order, the big screen finally displayed the entire group's scores.
However, when the score values became clear, the entire venue fell into a brief silence.
Even the livestream bullet comments went blank for a moment.
------5 points, 6 points, 4 points, 7 points, 5 points, 4 points, 6 points, 0 points, 5 points.
Out of 9 contestants, only 3 passed!
W̆ е̊ b́ n ȯ_v̆ е̄ l Е̂ǹ ü mа̌
One person even received a zero.
Bi Yi stood in the second-to-last position. As contestants, they had their backs to the screen, so they couldn't see their own scores.

However, seeing the shocked reaction from the live audience, Bi Yi understood that things probably weren't going as smoothly as imagined.
He felt a vague uneasiness rising within.
What was going on? Could there be something wrong with their performance?
But no matter what, the problem shouldn't be with him, right?
En̂ u m а
After all, this kind of aloof character was the easiest to portray. As long as he appeared sufficiently cold, everything could easily be attributed to the character's persona.
In short, he was the least likely to be the scapegoat.
[Damn, is there a mistake? Why are the scores so low?]
[Doesn't this performance count as good? How high are the judges' requirements...]

[Who is that contestant with 0 points... it couldn't be Bi Yi, right?]
[This kills me. Bi Yi's acting was never good, always forcibly praised by fans. Getting zero points serves him right.]
Е n̊u m а̊ .і̇d̃
[Is the production team pulling some stunt again? I thought "Actor Training Camp" was different from other variety shows, but it seems they're also into marketing hype.]
[Hope the judges can provide a reasonable explanation. Casually giving such low scores isn't fair to the contestants.]
The popularity of the performance competition was certainly much higher than daily training. Many people wouldn't watch the contestants' daily training but would watch their performance competitions.
Therefore, most viewers in the livestream had skipped the early broadcasts.
Their understanding of the contestants' abilities was still at the level of variety shows like "Good Drama PK Competition."
For this reason, Group F's performance was already a very good viewing experience for them.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
How could people not be angry when such excellent contestants were mostly judged as unqualified by the judges?
As the atmosphere became increasingly tense, finally, among the numerous scrolling bullet comments, a gold VIP bullet comment appeared in the center in a dominating manner.
[Ahem, everyone please don't get excited.]
[As someone who watched their complete practice livestreams, I must say something.]
[There's definitely a reason why Group F's overall scores are so low. After you see the performances of the next few groups, you'll understand...]
[Trust me, this is absolutely the worst-performing group!]
