The Brightest Star in the Sky

The Brightest Star in the Sky

Episode 1

Ah! I failed again.

Zheng Boxu?

So he signed with Star Entertainment?

A year ago, the person who attended talent contest with me has become a shining star.

But I'm still standing at the crossroads of life.

Will Star Entertainment be a music heaven for me?

I'm yearning for it.

Cut.

Stop.

Hey! Those dancers!

What are you doing? Haven't you eaten full enough?

Can you continue to dance? If not, get out of here!

What are you talking about? How could you say those words to them?

Calm down.

I'm sorry, Mr. Zheng.

I just want to move the schedule forward.

It has nothing to do with the the schedule.

First, as a director, you're not professional.

Second, you don't know how to respect others.

Mr. Zheng.

It's my fault.

Maybe I'm too anxious. I'm sorry.

Say sorry to them now.

Well, I can apologize later...

Do it now!

OK, fine.

Guys, I'm so sorry.

Take your time. Let's do it again, OK?

I'm so sorry.

Everyone, please get ready.

Let's shoot it again.

Boxu, have some water.

I'm not thirsty.

Come in, please.

Thank you.

Nice to meet you!

Hello!

Why don't you knock the door? So impolite!

Come back here. It's fine.

You're Yang Zhenzhen, right?

Welcome to apply for Star Entertainment.

I'm Yu Hong, the Agency Director.

This is our chief PR Director, Liu Yinan.

Nice to meet you, Miss Yu and Mr. Liu.

Have a seat.

Introduce yourself.

My name is Yang Zhenzhen. I come from a small city.

I like singing very much.

When I was little, my mother told me that I started to hum songs before I could even speak.

And I really like to perform in front of others.

I took my bed as my stage.

And I took a carrot as my microphone.

At school, I wrote down lyrics when the teacher was lecturing.

Looking at the pictures of my favorite singers,

I dreamed that someday I could stand on the stage to perform like them.

During middle school age, my grades kept falling.

My mother thought it was all because of music.

So she tore my lyrics books in pieces and didn't allow me to sing anymore.

We quarreled over this for many times.

Later I went to college.

I joined the school's choir

I practiced singing with classmates everyday.

At one semester, I even became the lead singer.

That was the happiest time in my life.

Every night, when everybody was asleep,

I covered myself under the blankets and wrote songs secretly.

At that moment, I decided to attend the talent show.

Even if I didn't know if I really had that talent.

But l just wanted to have a try.

Later, I really took part in the talent show.

But I realized there were good singers out there.

My singing performance was not outstanding.

I was often criticized by the judges and mentors.

They said I wouldn't be able to go further.

I really felt so sad at that time.

But I couldn't give up my music dream easily, right?

Then I came to Beijing by train to attend various talent shows.

I hope that some day I will be successful.

Beijing is the place for all the musicians to make their dream come true.

Unfortunately, I am not a lucky girl.

I've attended talent shows for seven or eight times.

But I couldn't even pass the primary audition.

Ok stop, are you trying to tell me a whole story?

I know what you are going to say.

You want to be a singer, and you attended talent shows

but was eliminated at the first round, right?

I got into the second round one time.

But then you were out again, right?

Am I wrong?

It seems that you really like music.

Not really, I have ardent love for music.

However you love music, we don't recruit singers.

I know, I'm here to apply for PR assistant.

So you give up your dream of singing?

Not really...

I mean I think I'm not talented to be a singer.

So I just want to have a job.

But I still want to have a job related to music.

Any position is OK.

So I hope to work at Star Entertainment.

I like the singers at your company too.

See?

She's just the same as other interviewees.

They just want to work here to have a chance to sing and meet idols here.

I told you we don't hire talent show participants.

We should hire the science majors.

I studied computer engineering at college.

I checked your resume.

I even never hear of the college you studied in.

Dancing or singing you learned, but we don't need it.

When I graduated, I ranked eighth in my class.

Here is my transcript. Please have a look.

OK, stop it. Call the next one in, hey!

Let her finish her words.

Director Yu.

If you can give me a chance, I...I will do my best.

And I will repay you with a big surprise.

Stop! What kind of surprise then?

Who teaches you this? Don't try to trick us!

Leave here, there are still a lot of people waiting.

We will consider you carefully.

Just wait for our call, OK?

Go! OK?

What are you looking?

Did you see this?

Even that little girl saw my masterpiece.

What are you doing?

Isn't that obvious enough?

Let's get back to business.

What do you think about her?

- She... - I think she is good.

Her persistence is suitable for PR department.

PR team must have a shameless attitude.

But she is bashful. That's not OK.

If she could annoy me for five more minutes, maybe I would accept her.

Do you think everyone is as shameless as you?

- Can you please just not treat me so... - Next.

Next, No.15.

Come with me.

Is anyone available to help me carry this to the film studio?

I can help you.

Thank you.

One, two, three.

Let's go.

What is this?

Clothes.

Everything is arranged for the best.

Before it's too late.

Let's go.

Cut!

I'm so sorry.

Are you alright?

I'm sorry.

Who are you?

I'm sorry. Director, we're bringing clothes to Boxu.

Can't you see we're filming here?

Why didn't you enter from the other side?

Who is your boss?

How do you feel being treated like this?

Didn't I just tell you to respect other people?

Don't you know the word respect or you never hear of it?

Sorry, I forgot it.

Come on, help him and see if he's injured.

Well, then take a break now.

We will shoot later.

Let's do it again.

Have some water, Boxu.

You only know to give me water?

Give me my phone.

But Sun asked me to keep your phone.

She is afraid you'll post something recklessly on Weibo.

Did I say I would post something on Weibo?

Give me the phone, quickly.

But if I give it to you, I will be scolded again.

Fine, you keep it, OK?

I'm in a very bad mood now.

Leave me alone, OK?

Jian.

Put it here.

Boxu, the sponsor's clothes are here.

There are 23 outfits in total, do you want to try now?

Jian.

What on earth is in your mind?

Zheng Boxu, I'm sorry.

Sorry for messing up with your filming.

Don't you remember me?

It's me, don't you remember?

Sorry, I don't know you.

I'm not in the mood.

Hello.

May I ask where I should put these costumes?

Put them at the gate.

Thank you.

Gao, can you fix computers?

Does anyone know how to fix computers?

Du's computer broke down. Can anyone fix it?

I can.

Are you here for the interview today?
