Chapter 4 Chapter 4 Digging a Hole

After Yan Su finished speaking, the noisy atmosphere at the scene became quiet, as if everything had been paused.

You can hear a pin drop.

Yan Su waited patiently. Seeing that Brother Lin didn't say anything, she glanced down and saw his hand still tightly holding the basket. Her eyebrows jumped.

What does this mean? Does this person think 60 yuan for her 50 eggs is too much?

Yan Su endured it again and again, but was still unwilling to back down. She said with embarrassment, "Brother Lin, 60 yuan for 50 eggs is already the best price. It really can't be any less."

She also waited in line for over an hour, and that hard-earned money wasn't even taken into account.

Others: “…”

After hearing Yan Su's words again, everyone finally came to their senses.

Brother Lin also came back to his senses, wondering if eggs was a code word in the current circle for giving gifts and getting through the back door?

He continued to ask, "Is it really just an ordinary egg?"

Yan Su looked puzzled. "Yes, it's eggs, fifty in total."

As she spoke, she casually lifted the veil of the basket.

A box full of white eggs instantly appeared in front of everyone.

Brother Lin took one look and his heart immediately stopped, his face turning as black as the bottom of a pot.

He quickly withdrew his hand, turned around and left with a dark face.

The staff member following Brother Lin glared at Yan Su with disgust on his face.

Soon, whispers and even faint laughter were heard all around.

Yan Su could feel that everyone was looking at her and discussing her, and the laughter was directed at her. Some people were looking at her and pointing.

She doesn't care at all.

A few whispers and laughs had no effect on her at all. The important thing was that she saved the fifty eggs.

"Alright, alright, those who are auditioning for the second female lead, follow me!"

The staff shouted.

The noisy conversations at the scene suddenly stopped, and many people followed the staff.

Yan Su also followed.

When Qian Yayi passed by Yan Su, she glanced at her...the basket in her hand.

Yan Su was focused on the eggs and was particularly sensitive to them, so she noticed Qian Yayi's gaze at the first moment.

Her eyes immediately became alert, and she moved the basket calmly, wondering if this person also wanted to steal her eggs.

Qian Yayi snorted and muttered, "What a country bumpkin," then put on sunglasses and strode away in ten-centimeter high heels.

Yan Su breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her leave.

Everyone entered a small room.

Yan Su first found a secluded place and carefully placed the eggs.

There were more than thirty people auditioning for the second female lead.

Yan Su took the number plate from the staff and saw that she was number 36, the last one.

Then, someone came over and handed each auditioner an A4 paper with the same scene written on it, which everyone would have to perform later.

There is a very short plot description on the paper.

"Facing the armed Japanese soldier, the second female lead, wearing a half-white rose mask, maintained a cold expressionless face, as calm as a robot, except for her eyes, which blazed with murderous intent. With a light tap of her toes, she soared into the air as effortlessly as a swallow, raising her hand and hurling ten darts."

"The darts collided with the incoming bullets mid-air, forcing them to retreat and return to their original path before piercing the Japanese soldiers' bodies. Two darts even made a 180-degree turn, bypassing the obstacle and piercing the Japanese leader's forehead."

After reading this text carefully, Yan Su leaned back slightly, her expression like an old man on the subway looking at his phone. Her scalp was numb and she couldn't help but scratch her toes twice.

From such a short clip, she can already get a glimpse of the overall style of director Chen's new drama "The Iron-Blooded Warrior of the White Rose in Fire".

Even for a drama like this, the competition is quite fierce. You can imagine how difficult it is to survive in the film and television industry nowadays.

Yan Su sighed, raised her hand and wiped her forehead lightly twice.

The number of people in the room gradually decreased.

In the conference room.

After the 30th auditioner left, Brother Lin, also known as Lin Qi, said calmly, "Uncle, after so many auditions, what do you think? Actually, number 10, Qian Yayi, is quite good."

After he finished speaking, the other judges who had received benefits from Yayi's agent began to agree.

Director Chen thought carefully for a moment before remembering who Qian Yayi was. Compared to the others, her overall performance was indeed quite good.

He was about to nod when he suddenly thought of something and asked, "Where's Yan Su?"

Lin Qi's expression froze for a moment, then he said in surprise, "She was among the people who just auditioned, wasn't she? I think she was number 17 or 20. I forgot how average her performance was."

Director Chen frowned and glanced at his nephew, knowing that he had accepted bribes in private again.

He and Zheng Feng have been friends for many years, and he knows Zheng Feng's picky and fearless nature very well. The person he recommends must not be too bad.

Director Chen said, "Continue."

…

"Next one, No. 36 Yan Su."

Here we come!

Yan Su jumped up from her seat.

She pushed open the door of the conference room and went in.

"Hello, teachers. I'm Yan Su."

When Lin Qi saw Yan Su, fifty white eggs popped up in front of him.

He chuckled twice with a dark face, and said in a long and sarcastic tone: "Let's get started."

Yan Su tied her hair up, closed her eyes slightly and began to gather her emotions.

A few seconds later.

She suddenly opened her eyes, tapped her feet lightly, and flew up easily.

In the conference room, several people who originally looked lazy and even a little impatient looked at Yan Su flying higher and higher, all with their mouths open in amazement.

Flying, flying? How did it fly? How could she fly?!

Yan Su thought about the plot in the script and looked at Lin Qi.

Thinking that this person just wanted to snatch the eggs that she had queued up for so hard, her eyes gradually turned cold.

Haha, those who want to steal her eggs are almost the same as the Japanese.

Die, you devils who stole eggs!

She raised her hand and made a dart-throwing gesture, throwing it hard in Lynch's direction.

The moment Lin Qi's eyes met Yan Su's as she flew into the air, he was struck by the fierce murderous intent in her eyes.

Seeing her raise her hand to throw a dart, my back felt numb and cold sweat broke out on my forehead.

It was as if something was really being thrown out of her hand and was about to stab him.

“Ahhhh!”

"Bang!"

Lynch couldn't help screaming and fell backwards from the chair to the ground.

"clatter."

Yan Su landed on the ground and created an original action of kneeling on one knee.

After a few seconds she stood up, "My performance is over."

After saying that, she looked at Director Chen in front of her with anticipation.

Director Chen's eyes changed from astonishment, to shock, to doubt about life, and finally gradually brightened.

"Great!" He slammed the table in front of him and said excitedly, "Great, this is the Iron-Blooded Warrior in my mind! Yan Su, the second female lead in this drama is yours!"

As expected, he was recommended by old man Zheng Feng. He is a good actor.

Yan Su was also very happy.

Finally, after three days of acting as a supporting role, she finally got the role of the second female lead.

She seemed to see countless banknotes and countless foods flying towards her.

"Thank you, Director Chen!"

…

A week later.

Yan Su dragged her suitcase to a hotel near the film and television city and stayed in the room provided by the crew.

Agent Wei Jiao also came along.

"Susu, these are the terms of cooperation for Orange TV's new love variety show for middle-aged and elderly people called 'Heartbeat Only for You'. Remember to read some of the precautions." Wei Jiao took out a contract.

Yan Su took it.

Wei Jiao: "Oh, by the way, they're going to try something new with this dating show, and broadcast the entire show live."

Everyone has decided to participate in the middle-aged and elderly dating variety show. Yan Su doesn't care whether the show is recorded or live, as long as the money is in place, everything is fine.

Wei Jiao gave Yan Su some careful instructions before leaving in a hurry.

This year, the company gave her two new people for the first time, and she has been very busy recently.

Yan Su quickly finished reading some of the terms of the Orange TV romance variety show, and then picked up the script of "The Iron-Blooded Warrior of the White Rose Roasted in Fire" to read.

The more she read, the more she doubted the screenwriter's mental state.

When Yan Su saw the second female lead catching the bullet with her hands and remaining unharmed, a hole was dug in her slippers.

…

the next day.

The opening ceremony of the TV series was quite grand.

Qian Yayi was also selected to play the third female role, the second sister in the Iron Blood Warrior Group.

She, the second female lead, is the eldest sister, a cold and wooden beauty, while the female lead is the younger sister, an optimistic and positive person who is loved by everyone and a confused and naive person.

Yan Su briefly greeted the other main characters and supporting characters, which was considered a preliminary acquaintance.

"Hello, Miss Yan, I'm Luo Ye."

A man with greasy hair and powdered face walked up to Yan Su, looked at her affectionately, and slowly extended his hand.

This is the guy who plays the male lead.

Yan Su glanced at him and was so disgusted by the inexplicable "affection" in his eyes that her body trembled.

This person looked like he had kidney deficiency. She always felt that he looked familiar, and quickly dug out another face from the original owner's memory.

She held out her hand and shook his.

The moment their hands separated, Luo Ye's fingers gently hooked Yan Su's palm.

It seems unintentional.

Luo Ye blinked, turned around and started talking to others as if nothing had happened.

Yan Su narrowed her eyes. Her hands itched, and she suddenly wanted to hit someone.

"snort!"

Qian Yayi passed by Yan Su and snorted coldly.

…

After the opening ceremony, a group of people went to a hotel next to the film and television city for dinner.

In addition to the crew, there were also two investors present.

Yan Su's entire attention was focused on the food in front of her, her eyes practically glowing green.

Thanks to the crew and Director Chen, she can finally have a good meal.

The others were chatting happily, and were intentionally or unintentionally praising Director Chen and the two investors.

Only Yan Su was concentrating on eating.

This is delicious.

She quickly picked up half of the shrimp and put them into the bowl.

This rib looks good too.

She moved her hand, and another half of the ribs went into her stomach.

Oh, these green vegetables look so appetizing.

She brought over a whole plate of vegetables.

Qian Yayi's seat was diagonally opposite Yan Su, and her attention had been on Yan Su today.

She just felt angry.

In Director Zheng's crew, she worked so hard and seriously but was scolded every day. However, Yan Su, a professional corpse actor, was recognized by Director Zheng.

This time, the role she had her eyes on was snatched away by Yan Su again.

She refused to accept.

Yan Su has the delicate appearance of a pure and innocent girl. There must be a financial sponsor behind her, but her agent just hasn't found out.

With this thought in mind, Qian Yayi's eyes never left Yan Su, and she kept staring at her.

Then, she watched Yan Su's mouth never stop talking, and she ate most of the food on the table.

It’s been less than ten minutes since dinner started!

Halfway through, the hotel waiter brought two plates of steamed buns and a pot of rice.

Yan Su first ate a full bowl of rice, then picked up four steamed buns with both hands.

The steamed buns were too small, so she finished one in two bites, and finished more than a dozen steamed buns in just two or three minutes.

“Pah.”

Qian Yayi's hands trembled slightly, and the chopsticks in her hand fell onto the table.

After Director Chen exchanged pleasantries with the two investors, he said, "Come on, let's eat first and talk while we eat."

He picked up his chopsticks and reached out, only to see the table was almost empty.

Director Chen: “…”

Where's the food?! Where did all that huge table of food go?!
