On the other side, Qin Lezhang was completely unaware that there were other Chinese actors present.
He lit a cigarette, squinted at the audience seats in the distance, and asked, "Where will Director Tannis be sitting?"
"That location."
The person in charge pointed him in a general direction.
"Then please arrange a few seats closer to the front."
"Currently, the only seat closest to him is this one in the front row next to him," the person in charge said. "Those other seats have already been booked in advance, so there's nothing I can do about it."
"That works too," Qin Lezhang said nonchalantly, a cigarette dangling from his lips. "I'll have to ask you to help me get in touch with them then."
"Yes, that's not a problem."
The person in charge nodded: "However, I can't guarantee who the final choice for director will be."
"That's fine too."
Qin Lezhang readily agreed.
After the person in charge left, Qin Lezhang's agent, Wen Qicai, came over. While observing the situation around the audience, he said to Qin Lezhang, "This time, the old man is here to select actors. He will be observing the drivers more. Are you sure you don't want to appear as a gentleman driver?"
"I was almost injured in the last car accident, so I'm too lazy to participate again."
Qin Lezhang crossed his arms and said lazily.
"This endurance race lasts for three hours. If Director Tannis isn't paying attention, he might not even notice me. That would be a huge loss."
Wen Qi frowned and nodded in agreement: "That's true. These sports are still dangerous after all, and ensuring safety is the priority."
"Have all the Asian participants for this competition been confirmed?"
Qin Lezhang pushed up his sunglasses. "Anyone else who's heard the news?"
"No." Wen Qi shook his head. "Don't worry, no one else in the country knows about this right now."
"That's fine. I won't allow myself to fail."
Qin Lezhang wore a confident smile.
...
Meanwhile, a lively discussion broke out among domestic fan groups.
[Rumor has it that Brother Xiao is currently in Italy, preparing to participate in a competition there, and also taking the opportunity to promote his upcoming overseas film, *Law of the Jungle*.]
[Huh? Really? What competition? What time does it start? Where can I watch it?]
[I don't know the details either, but their studio posted a message wishing their boss all the best in the competition. You can check it out on Weibo if you don't believe me.]
[It really is true; judging from the helmet in the picture, it might be a racing helmet.]
Wow, is there anything Brother Xiao doesn't know?
[Haha, I can finally go live! I'm in Italy! I'm already planning to go tomorrow.]
[Hehe, I've already contacted my friends studying in Italy and asked them to definitely go and take photos on site.]
[But Brother Xiao is really low-key; he didn't publicize this at all. If it were anyone else, they would probably have been making a big fuss about it by now.]
To be fair, Brother Xiao has always been quite low-key.
[Keeping a low profile is good, but fans are getting impatient! When will we see Brother Xiao again?]
[It's okay, let's wait a bit longer. Next month is the White Magnolia Awards, and I think Xiao Ge's Meng Zetian will most likely be on the shortlist. He'll definitely be back in China then.]
Wow, time flies! It's already Mulan.
Yes, last time Xiao Ge (Xiao Ge) didn't have any projects to participate in, but now he's got box office success! I'm so happy!
