Chapter 151 [Bonus ] 151 - You don't know him?

"Are you a new actor?" He asked as he looked at me.

"No, not yet anyway." I replied. "I just came to accompany a friend of mine from school. She has anxiety and gets nervous easily, so I came to give her emotional support."

Hearing this, the man was surprised. "Really? How nice of you. What is her role?"

"If I'm not mistaken, her character's name is Harley." I replied after some thought. "She's a little girl with black hair."

The man nodded his head and asked another question, "Why did you say you weren't going to be an actor yet? Are you still training for it at school?"

"Sort of..." I replied, a little unsure of how to say it since I didn't want to talk about my musical career. "I'm still auditioning for one of the characters, Harley's boyfriend in the show."

Talking about my career to people who didn't know me wasn't something I thought would be very interesting, especially because I'd seen people treat me differently just because of it, so if I could, I'd just avoid talking about it and act normal with people.

Hearing this, the man looked at me with that typical fatherly look as a smile appeared on his face and he began to laugh as he spoke. "You came as her emotional support and you're auditioning for her boyfriend's character? That's dedication, kid."

Seeing him laugh, I smiled, but didn't explain too much, knowing it could lead to more misunderstandings.

Suddenly, Ms. Parker came over and spoke to the man: "Phil, we're almost ready, you can go to your seat."

Hearing this, the man nodded to her and nodded to me. "I'm going to work, kid, good luck with your test."

What had just happened, I was surprised to realize, was that contrary to what I thought, that this man was the father of some child actor who was accompanying the child, he was an actor!

And not only was he an actor, but he was an important actor, because Ms. Parker had come to see him personally.

And from what I noticed when he looked at me, he also noticed that I hadn't realized who he was, and he laughed as he went into the movie.

Looking at me suspiciously, Ms. Parker was also surprised that I didn't seem to recognize the man named Phil.

"Don't you know who you were talking to?" She asked me with a raised eyebrow.

"If I said I didn't know anything about other artists, would you believe me?" I asked sincerely, making her look at me in disbelief.

"You're almost at D rank without knowing much about other artists?" She asked.

"I just do my own thing..." I said a little embarrassed.

Hearing this, she snorted in disbelief as she turned and headed for the director's chair.

I went to a corner, away from the cameras so as not to disturb anyone, where the rest of the crew was, and pulled out my cell phone to look up Phil and see who he was.

Surprisingly it wasn't hard to find him.

[Phil Tyrell - B Rank Artist]

When I saw his profile, I was shocked.

Although I had interacted with a C-Rank Artist before, C-Rank and B-Rank Artists were in completely different leagues.

The difference between the two could be as great as comparing an F Rank Artist to a D Rank Artist, or even a C Rank Artist!

Opening up Phil's social networks, he had 3 million followers on Instabram alone, and that's considering he wasn't even that active on that social network.

Considering his age, all of his fame must have been built through TV, which shows how influential he really was.

Even though he wasn't an A or S Rank Artist, I was still surprised that I had interacted with him and that he seemed like such a nice guy.

Knowing that this show would possibly feature a B rank artist as the lead actor raised my expectations of how the show would be received by the audience.

With the time I had available, I took the opportunity to hear the names of the other artists from the other people on the team and started looking them up on the GAA website.

Julia, the woman who would be playing the mother of the family, the wife of Phil's character, was a Peak C Rank Artist, while Laura was a Peak D Rank Artist. There were two other child actors in the family, the girl who would play the middle sister was a lower C rank artist, and the little boy who would play the younger brother was only a high E rank artist, which was understandable given his age.

There was even another B-rank actor in the family who would play the father of the family's mother.

For a sitcom, this cast was extremely luxurious.

These artists were people who charged a lot for both shows and movies, so having so many high-profile people meant that the money they had to pay per episode as a salary wasn't low.

That was good news for me.

Not only because I'd have the chance to be in a show with several high-profile artists, which could bring some of their popularity to me, since having so many big names would increase the show's chances of doing well.

And also because I could tell Selena about it so she could get a fair price for my salary.

Within minutes, the taping began, and I began to look forward to it.

I hadn't activated my [Observe] skill yet because I wanted to find out who had the highest level of acting first, but just watching them start to act made me learn a lot, which excited me a lot.

Finally, in the second scene they were about to record, it was Laura's turn to appear, which made me both excited and worried that her anxiety would kick in and something would go wrong.

The first thing I noticed when she appeared was that she wanted to look around.

I waved my hands for her to see me, and I could see that Laura was visibly less frightened.
