Chapter 290 You are so beautiful

Hu Xiaoxiao's eyes turned slightly, and he smiled and said, "It's because I can help Luo Sheng make a lot of money, so Luo Sheng is so generous to me. If Director Gao is interested in making a lot of money, how about we cooperate someday?"

Before Gao Zhiyuan could say anything, Nie Jinlong agreed, saying, "It's a good idea to hire Xiaoxiao. She makes a lot of money. And among all the actresses in the entertainment industry, you can't find anyone more beautiful, more skilled, or more dedicated than her. It's no surprise that she's becoming increasingly popular. She's a capable fighter, beautiful, and popular with the audience. Whoever hires her for a role is going to win big."

Hu Xiaoxiao's eyes were all smiling, and he praised: "Teacher Nie has good taste."

"Of course, I have always had a good eye. Bar! Bar for thirty thousand!" Nie Jinlong shouted and barred the thirty thousand that Shao Yitao bet.

After Gao Zhiyuan drew a card, he said to Hu Xiaoxiao, "No one would offend the God of Wealth. It just so happens that our boss also has this idea. After I finish filming this movie, I will definitely ask you to be the lead in the next one. I hope Miss Hu will be willing to do me the honor."

"Why do we need to wait for the next one? Isn't it just right for me to be the leading actress in the one Director Gao is working on now?" Hu Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to say.

Gao Zhiyuan touched another whiteboard, shook his head, threw it away, and said, "This one won't work. You don't meet my casting requirements."

"I wonder what Director Gao's requirements are for the heroine he's choosing?"

"I need to find someone who is more neutral and has martial arts skills."

Hu Xiaoxiao volunteered, saying, "No actress in the entertainment industry can compete with me, and my acting skills are up to par. It would be a shame if Director Gao didn't choose me."

"You are so beautiful. When the audience sees you, they only focus on your pretty face, which doesn't match the original character. I would rather find an actor whose temperament and image are more similar to the original character."

Hu Xiaoxiao thought of some photos he had seen of the original, and his mind fluttered, but he didn't mention the movie again. He drew a nine-tube and slapped the card on the table. "Self-drawn, all the same color!"

With a push of the cards, a beautiful all-suit hand appeared in front of the three of them.

The three grown men all sighed, "What kind of luck is this? You just got a four of a kind, and now you have a clean sheet?"

Hu Xiaoxiao said modestly: "Sorry, the God of Wealth gave me this gift."

Although he spoke modestly, he was not modest at all when it came to collecting money, and he would not tolerate even a penny less.

Gao Zhiyuan counted the money, gave it to Hu Xiaoxiao, and sighed, "I can see that you are really lucky and wealthy."

Hu Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "There's nothing I can do about it. This is innate, and others can't envy it."

In addition to luck, card counting is also very important in playing cards. Hu Xiaoxiao happens to be very good at counting cards, so her skills account for most of the reason for her victory.

While counting cards, she did not forget her business and found out the date and location of the casting for Gao Zhiyuan's new film.

In this game of cards, just as Hu Xiaoxiao said at the beginning, there will be no mercy.

She took on all three of them by herself, and beat them so hard that they had no temper and had to end the game early.

Hu Xiaoxiao counted the money while asking them to call her next time they play cards. "That's great. Playing cards makes more money than filming. Remember to ask me out next time."

"You earn more than you do by filming a movie. We give you almost all of our monthly salary and work for you." Nie Jinlong went back upstairs and brought over a bottle of wine and said.

Then, he handed the wine in his hand to Hu Xiaoxiao, "This is a medicinal wine for injuries and falls. I made it myself. It's quite effective. Many martial artists come to me for it. If you get hurt while filming, apply it topically if it's not serious. If the pain is severe, apply it topically and drink half a cup every night before going to bed."

In addition to the wine, Nie Jinlong also gave Hu Xiaoxiao the recipe, "If you use this medicinal wine well, you can go to the pharmacy to make your own medicine after you finish it."

Hu Xiaoxiao quickly took it and thanked him.

When Hu Xiaoxiao left, Mrs. Shao packed a return gift for her to take back, so that Hu Xiaoxiao could come over for dinner when she was free.

After leaving the Shao family, Hu Xiaoxiao began to think about the audition for the crew of "Cheng Zhaofeng".

Although Gao Zhiyuan pointed out that her image didn't match Cheng Zhaofeng's, Hu Xiaoxiao wasn't one to give up easily and didn't think it was a problem. It was just a matter of image, and she just had to deal with it.

Hu Xiaoxiao found old photos of Cheng Zhaofeng, studied them one by one, and read information about Cheng Zhaofeng. After studying for a few days, he finally came up with an idea.

Hu Xiaoxiao came to the barber shop and said to the barber, "Cut my hair short."

The barber reached out and scooped up a handful of Hu Xiaoxiao's beautiful long hair. Her hair was shiny black, soft and smooth. "Ms. Hu, do you really want to cut such beautiful hair?"

"Cut." Hu Xiaoxiao answered firmly.

The barber couldn't bear it. He felt like an executioner cutting off such beautiful long hair. He asked again, "Ms. Hu, are you sure?"

"Sure." Hair can grow longer. If you like long hair, you can keep it later. There's nothing to regret.

The barber had no choice but to pick up the scissors and reluctantly cut off Hu Xiaoxiao's waist-length hair into short hair.

After the haircut, the barber used a hair dryer to blow away the loose hair. Looking at Hu Xiaoxiao in the mirror with short hair, she was still as beautiful as before, and even more heroic.

He couldn't help but admire: "Miss Hu is beautiful, even with short hair she looks good. There are very few girls who look this beautiful with short hair."

Hu Xiaoxiao looked at herself in the mirror with short hair, and looked around. This was a hairstyle she had never tried before, and it looked quite good. She reached out and combed her hair back, revealing her full forehead, and was very satisfied.

After getting his hair cut, Hu Xiaoxiao went to the mall again and picked out a well-fitting white suit and a pair of men's leather shoes.

This day was the day for auditions for the cast of "Cheng Zhaofeng".

Gao Zhiyuan was a huge name in the film industry, and when the casting call for the female lead in "Cheng Zhaofeng" was opened to a wide range of actresses, everyone in the entertainment industry was eager to take the role. However, when they learned that the role required an actress with martial arts background, many of them had to give up with regret.

But there are many talented people in the circle, and there are also many actresses with martial arts skills. Dozens of them came to audition that day, and the auditions lasted from noon to afternoon.

After meeting another female star, Gao Zhiyuan couldn't help but cover his mouth with his hand and yawned.

After watching for several hours, he found that none of them satisfied him. He was dissatisfied with either this or that.

Either the fighting is not good or the appearance is too ordinary.

This is an action movie. If the fighting is not good, it will have no selling point, so if you don’t have a good foundation in martial arts, you can’t choose it.

There are a few actresses with solid martial arts skills, but their looks are just too ordinary. For a leading lady, beauty isn't the most important thing; what's important is aura and a strong presence, standing out from the crowd and drawing attention, so the audience can instantly tell who's the focal point of the scene.

He looks too ordinary, and any other actor can overshadow him. Then is this protagonist still a protagonist?
