Even people who don’t have much talent for acting or singing still dream of being discovered by a talent scout (星探)．It seems just like the lottery(彩票), but better you get fame and money.
For me, the dream seemed likely to stay a dream．But everything last week in Beijing．I was eating dinner with some friends．As I was getting ready to pay, a young Chinese woman came running up to me．I was that I must have done something horrible to offend(冒犯) her without it.
“You are a white man,” she said when she got to our table.
“Yes, I am a white man,” I replied.
“Can you speak ?” she asked.
“Yes.”
“Oh good．Come with me now, please.”
I walked outside and saw that a movie was being shot in front of one of the street’s largest _ _ .
The woman, a talent agent (经纪人), had a foreigner for this movie, but he had forgotten to __．She needed to find a white guy who spoke English, and I was the only one _ ．My part was to walk from one end of the street to the other, and then _ the club．When I got to the club, I was supposed to to my friend and say, “Forget about the girl, man．We are here to party!” It took me three tries to say the line or walk without tripping(绊倒), but I got it right.
The talent scout ran to me afterward．“You are so ．I would like you to join my agency.” I know I am not going to be the next Jay Chou． , it seems that my _ “star” talents are being white and being able to speak English． , next time you are watching a Chinese movie, look in the ．If you see a white guy stumbling (蹒跚) on his way into a nightclub, it might just be me on my way to stardom (星途)!
