After dreaming of getting rich, I dressed up as a collapsed idol

Chapter 546

Just as Wang Hao had predicted, the recording vehicle that had picked up the people from the airport arrived here only two minutes late. The four people who were chatting turned to look at it.

The car door opened, and Lu Qingfeng stepped out.

In mid-May, the average daytime temperature in Paris is around 20 degrees Celsius, cool and pleasant. The young man who had just arrived was wearing a light-colored preppy jacket, with a light white and light green color-blocked shirt underneath, paired with flowing black casual pants, looking fresh and clean.

As the four waved and greeted him, his handsome face, with its clean skin, broke into a smile as bright as the afternoon sun, and he jogged over.

Xia He never considered herself a superficial person. Seven parts of her performance just now were acting, and the other three parts were genuine curiosity about Lu Qingfeng.

There are no secrets in this industry. People move around so fast; the staff from one production team might be on another team tomorrow. Naturally, information about the personalities and quirks of the stars you've worked with, including some private gossip, spreads everywhere.

Some of these rumors are true, some are false, but you can generally learn about a celebrity's true character in private from these gossips.

Lu Qingfeng rose to fame quickly and was currently very popular, frequently appearing on trending topics online. Xia He could often overhear snippets about him from the staff around her.

What we hear most often is that her appearance in private is no different from that in front of the camera; she has the kind of top-tier looks that make people swoon.

Xia He actually had doubts about this.

Almost everyone in the entertainment industry suffers from appearance anxiety, and almost everyone has undergone cosmetic procedures. Those flawless faces on camera are the result of spending money on maintenance.

The difference lies in whether it is obvious or not.

For example, she herself has done dental procedures.

Everything is for the sake of being on camera.

There's no way around it; that's just how the industry is. Without cosmetic surgery, many artists' natural faces simply don't meet the requirements, and this is especially evident in actresses.

Moreover, an actor's appearance often depends on their costumes, makeup, and props. This is why a suitable role can allow an artist to enjoy the benefits for a long time, and good makeup and styling can lead to widespread popularity.

Once you enter this industry, you'll realize that while there are indeed many handsome men and beautiful women, most of them aren't particularly stunning when they stand there without makeup.

In comparison, Xia He was actually more curious about Lu Qingfeng's musical and literary achievements, which were his real accomplishments.

But when the boy actually appeared in front of her, she realized she had been careless.

It's a strange feeling. Even though we both have two eyes, a nose, and a mouth, the moment we meet each other's eyes, a shiver runs through the depths of our hearts, just like what Teacher Shen said before.

How can someone be so good-looking? If I had a face like that, I'd die happy.

Unlike the pictures and videos seen online, the boy's subconscious charm that makes people want to get close to him is something you can't feel until you meet him in person.

I simply can't muster any aversion to it.

There is a certain intuition between people; whether you like someone or not, you can sense it immediately upon first meeting them.

"Hello everyone, I am Lu Qingfeng."

The boy had already come up in front of everyone and introduced himself. Xia He couldn't help but smile while secretly scrutinizing him more carefully.

Her skin is really good. She wore makeup on her face because she was going to be on camera, but you can still see it through her neck and hands.

This is something she envies.

A clean, tidy face without dullness or acne can earn you 80% of the first impression.

If she doesn't wear makeup, her facial skin isn't actually in very good condition, which is quite normal, as most people are like that. Age, sun exposure, diet, and lifestyle all affect skin condition.

And the glasses are especially nice.

This reminded her of online discussions about celebrities' appearances, where Lu Qingfeng's eyes were the most talked about, described by netizens as the most alluring glasses.

Xia He found it hard to believe that this was a description of a boy. Now that she had met the witness, she felt that this generation of netizens was quite accurate in judging people.

"Hello."

Before she knew it, the other person had already arrived in front of her.

So close!

So close that you can see each individual eyelash.

Die, die, die!

Xia He screamed inwardly like a groundhog, but remained calm on the surface.

"Hello."

She smiled reservedly, pursed her lips, and shook hands with him.

They shook hands briefly and then parted, displaying great tact. He then greeted Luo Haoming beside him.

Xia He noticed that her colleague's hands and feet were a little stiff.

I was overshadowed!

She couldn't help but chuckle to herself. Although they hadn't known each other for long, she could tell that Luo Haoming was actually a bit narcissistic.

Such men, besides being more concerned about their own appearance, will also subconsciously compare themselves with other men around them. If they feel that they are not as good as others, that's fine, but if they feel that they are not as good as others, they will subconsciously become wary.

If you are completely outmatched, you might feel frustrated and uncomfortable.

Luo Haoming is now in this situation.

"Just came from England?"

Without time to think further, as Lu Qingfeng and the other four reunited, the show continued recording, and she suppressed her overflowing thoughts and threw herself into the program.

Lu Qingfeng came to Shen Ruishu's side, and Old Shen asked.

"Yes, I'll come over as soon as the event over there is over."

"Lu, you've come at the perfect time. We were just discussing French writers. Professor Shen mentioned André Gide. Which French writer do you like?"

Zhong Huaiyi began to guide Lu Qingfeng into the atmosphere of the program.

Lu Qingfeng didn't think much before speaking.

“Albert Galio, I will pick up and read his ‘The Stranger’ whenever I have time.”

"This book is quite difficult to understand."

Luo Haoming then interjected.

"right"

Lu Qingfeng glanced in his direction and smiled amicably. For some reason, Luo Haoming was flattered and quickly returned the smile.

"When I first read this book, I didn't understand it either. I thought the protagonist in Jia Liao's book was very strange, numb and indifferent, or lacking in emotional perception. Because in our thinking, normal people would have an emotional response when faced with major events such as the death of a loved one or someone they like proposing marriage."

"Later, I tried to look at the story from a God's-eye view instead of the protagonist's perspective, and then I began to understand the idea that Galio wanted to convey through the story."

"Without delving into the philosophical issues this book seeks to explore, simply looking at the character of Meursault in the book, all his behaviors are abnormal relative to the mainstream of this world, but this abnormality is only relative to others."

"But for him, this is his truest feeling. It is neither to break away from the mainstream to make himself special, nor to hide himself to conform to the mainstream."

"This is his true self, this emotion is his most genuine feeling, and he honestly expresses everything he feels."
