Why were the friends in the Mushroom House all teary-eyed?
It was because Su Han was telling them his story.
He spoke of his time as an extra in Hengdian, how he struggled, and how he got to where he is today.
"Brother Su Han, when you were an extra, did you really get through a whole day with just one steamed bun?"
"No,"
"Hmm?"
"Is everything on the internet fake? Is it too exaggerated?"
Netizens were suddenly filled with curiosity.
"What the heck? Are those pictures all fake now?"
"It's been said online that Su Han survived a whole day on one steamed bun, and I thought it was fake. I didn't expect the person himself to say it's not true."
"I knew it. How could anyone really manage a whole day on one steamed bun? They'd starve."
"I have five or six meals a day and still don't feel full. This, damn it, one steamed bun for a whole day, is indeed exaggerated."
Yang Mi: "Is this Su Han stupid? They wrote the script for him, why couldn't he just pretend to be pitiful?"
Just as Yang Mi was calling Su Han stupid, in the next second, Su Han made her cry!
"Not only did I eat one steamed bun a day, but I also had a packet of preserved vegetables."
"One steamed bun was divided into three pieces, and a packet of preserved vegetables was also divided into three portions. I ate a piece of steamed bun with a portion of preserved vegetables in the morning, another piece of steamed bun with a portion of preserved vegetables at noon, and the same at night."
"Sometimes, if my roommates couldn't stand my miserable life, they would bring me some good food."
"I can cook myself, but now a meal costs at least ten yuan. If I turn on the stove, it's cheaper to just eat steamed buns. So, most of the time, I prefer to gnaw on steamed buns, costing only three yuan a day."
"Steamed buns are 1.5 yuan each, and preserved vegetables are 1.5 yuan a packet. They both feel so expensive, sigh!"
Three yuan a day, and he considered it expensive?
And how could one steamed bun sustain a whole day?
Was Su Han a god?
The friends in the Mushroom House listened with red eyes, their hearts filled with concern for Su Han.
Netizens were also shocked.
"My God, Su Han is amazing, truly amazing. I've never seen such a tragic actor in my life. For this reason alone, I'm a fan!"
"Too tragic! A dreamer!"
"Three yuan a day and calling it expensive? I spend thirty thousand a day. I can't imagine Hengdian extras are this miserable?"
"No??? There's a bug in what he's saying! Don't extras get meal boxes? Why would they have to eat steamed buns themselves?"
Soon, netizens grasped the key point.
Upon seeing this comment, Yang Mi gasped: "Damn, Su Han, which part of what you said is true and which is false? You have bugs in your lies! And I believed you!"
Soon, the members of the Mushroom House also reacted.
Especially Peng Peng, who always acted without thinking much.
Peng Peng wiped away his tears, calmed down, and touched his head, looking at Su Han with great confusion: "Right, Brother Su Han. You should have gotten meal boxes when you were an extra."
"OMG, OMG!!! Peng Peng found it!"
"Oh my, Peng Peng is finally smart for once."
"Hmph, let's see how he answers."
Netizens were anticipating the exposure of Su Han's lie.
Teacher He was also quite flustered: "Peng Peng, really. Even if a guest lies, can't you just... Ah! It's okay, if Su Han can't explain it later, I'll help him."
Teacher Huang: "What is this kid up to? His acting is good, but lying like this, it's not good..."
Zhang Yixing: "No matter what, my Brother Su Han is awesome! Respect!"
Zhang Zifeng: "Ah! Brother!"
At this moment, Yang Mi also took a deep breath, hugged Reba nervously, and stared at the screen: "You want to lie, let's see how you answer!"
But!
After Su Han spoke, they burst into tears!
"Actually, the work for extras isn't as much as imagined. There are too many extras in Hengdian now, and it's hard to even get work as an extra."
"Most of the time, I couldn't get jobs. I could only find work as an extra for a maximum of three days a week, and the other days I was just a salted fish."
"Sometimes, when I was really hungry, I would ask the crew if I could do some manual labor for them in exchange for a meal box."
"I know how difficult it is for someone without connections to enter the entertainment industry."
"But I love acting. I can't just give up this dream because life is too hard."
"If a person has no dreams in this life, they are just a salted fish, better off dead."
"This struggle lasted for five years."
"After five years, I was indeed a salted fish."
"Just when I was about to give up, the role of Feng Yuxiu appeared."
The Mushroom House, the netizens in front of the screen, and even Yang Mi, Reba, and others in the villa, all burst into tears at this moment.
It was too moving!
Su Han's story was too inspiring!
Of course!
A large portion of the netizens watching Su Han were extras from Hengdian.
Su Han's rise to fame as an extra spread among them, and Su Han became their role model.
Many extras who were about to give up on their acting careers were inspired by Su Han's motivational story to persevere.
Now, holding their phones and watching the live broadcast of "Back to Life," they were weeping profusely, deeply moved.
Everyone was touched, but Zhang Zhan, who had arrived at Shark Pond Village, saw this scene on the live broadcast and showed a look of disdain.
"Heh heh, brag, keep bragging! When this superstar's spotlight shifts, I'll crush you in minutes."
After turning off the live broadcast, Zhang Zhan got out of the car.
Just as everyone was crying while listening to Su Han's story, a shout came from outside.
"Anyone home?"
"Teacher He, Teacher Huang! I'm here!"
Zhang Zhan's fans were instantly awakened!
"Wow, Brother is here!!!!"
