Su Yinyin paused for a moment, then pushed the door open and went in.
Lu Jingxu's eyes moved around her. Someone in front turned around and exchanged a few words with him. He nodded, and the man in front asked her to start.
The fat man sitting in the front turned the page of the paper in his hand, and seemed to finally see Su Yinyin's name. His gaze paused for a moment, and he raised his eyelids to look at Su Yinyin, with a hint of mischief flashing in his eyes.
"It's you again."
Su Yinyin actually wanted to ask him why he was everywhere.
She didn't want to see him anymore than he wanted to see her, not to mention that Lu Jingxu was there.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Lu Jingxu's dark eyes were covered with a layer of mist, and his gaze shifted from Su Yinyin to the back of the fat man's head.
He didn't speak, as if waiting to see what he was going to say next.
A man wearing a blue shirt and black-framed glasses heard the fat man talking and thought he also knew the relationship between Lu Jingxu and Su Yinyin, so he asked, "Director Zhang, do you know this young actor?"
"Yes, of course I know her. I saw her at the audition for my last play."
The man with black-framed glasses glanced at Lu Jingxu, intending to follow the chubby man's words and praise Su Yinyin: "Really? How was your performance?"
"Hmph," the fat man snorted coldly, not caring that Su Yinyin was standing there, and said leisurely: "Young people nowadays take themselves too seriously, they are so arrogant. I just said a few words to her and she started arguing with me──"
Seeing that things were not going well, the man in the black frame quickly interrupted him and got back to the point: "Haha, there must be some misunderstanding. This girl looks quite friendly..."
"Oh, no, why don't you believe it──"
"Ahem, alright, alright, let's not talk about this for now. Su Yinyin, let me see you perform for a while."
The black-framed man pushed his glasses and handed over the script. Cold sweat ran down his back. Every time Zhang said something, he broke out in a sweat.
Su Yinyin stood still, and the director chose a clip for her to perform that could better express the character's emotional characteristics and had greater emotional ups and downs. Su Yinyin quickly got into the role and burst into tears when she was moved. At the end of the performance, the staff next to her came over and handed her a piece of paper.
Whether it is the grasp of emotions or the tension, the lines are all very good, and the crying scenes are even more amazing.
After wiping my tears and standing up, the man in the black frame nodded and first asked a more routine question, why did I want to play this role.
"First of all, I think that the character's development, both in the novel and in the script, is undoubtedly very well-developed. As a spy, she has to conceal her feelings for the second male lead, and her attitude towards her best friend, the female lead, is constantly in a state of conflict. Whether it's before her transformation to evil or after her fall from grace, her emotional journey flows naturally and is well-documented—"
"Well, isn't that because she has too many scenes and can't win the female lead?"
Zhang said something disdainful, indicating that he didn't like her. He thought he had some status in speaking here.
After a long while, seeing the dead silence around him, Zhang Zai finally realized that something was wrong. He looked up and looked around: "What? Was I wrong?"
The side of his face felt like it was hit by an ice spike. He noticed an unusually cold gaze behind him. He turned around and found Lu Jingxu looking at him with a smile on his lips: Could it be that he was wrong just now?
He knew who Lu Jingxu was. This expression meant he had something to say, so he quickly quieted down.
A lightly applied hand rested on his shoulder, and Lu Jingxu said in a low voice:
"Director Zhang, you're such a great analyst. So, I'd like to ask, from a professional perspective, how was this young lady's performance?"
Zhang Zai paused, then offered his opinion: "The performance was indeed okay, and he got into the role quickly, but he didn't seem to be able to cooperate with the work. Teacher Lu, I think you should be cautious in using him."
"Oh?" Lu Jingxu leaned back with his arms crossed, seeming to be very interested in what he was saying. "You've worked together before, so how do you know she won't cooperate?"
Seeing that Lu Jingxu was interested, he quickly continued:
"How could I dare to use such a person? Last time on the set, I said a few words to her, and she threw the script on my desk, almost hitting me in the face. She's so arrogant. I saw that she filmed a movie not long ago, and the resources are pretty good. This girl is young and full of energy. I don't know if she has a godfather to rely on, otherwise why would she be so arrogant-"
This was said without reservation, and everyone in the room heard it.
Lu Jingxu turned around and looked at the photographer who was recording the audition: "Is Su Yinyin's audition just now recorded?"
The cameraman could see the chill emanating from Lu Jingxu from a distance and quickly replied, "I recorded it all."
"Okay, turn off the camera now."
The cameraman did it, and after that the air fell into a dead silence. Zhang Zai still didn't know what had happened. He only saw that everyone around him looked pale.
Five minutes later, Lu Jingxu's phone chimed. He unlocked the screen, clicked on a document he had just received, and casually scrolled down. "Zhang Zai... has been working for twenty years, so you have a pretty extensive resume. It's a pity that you've messed up a lot of projects recently. Besides the daily payroll, you also received a large transfer a week ago. Can you explain?"
Zhang Zai's face turned dark in an instant, and he stammered for a long time without uttering a word. He really couldn't think of any reason why Lu Jingxu suddenly decided to check his account.
"You can't explain it, right? That's right. I advise you to go home and take good care of your wife and children. You're abusing your position for profit and accepting bribes. I'm sure the court summons will be served on you soon."
