Qiao Lin chased after her, wanting to retrieve her scarf, but saw Gu Weiwei walk into the audition room.
Moreover, she covered her face with a silk scarf, leaving only her eyes visible.
His blood pressure spiked in anger.
The casting director and the assistant director looked at each other in bewilderment when they saw the auditioning actor walk in with his face covered. Was this guy here to be funny?
Director Yi An remained expressionless and, after seeing the auditioning actors in place, said something with a stern face.
"Let's get started."
This audition was filmed on location. Since Tang Shaoqi often wore a mask in her scenes, her eyes were the only way to express her emotions.
Only through close-up shots can they see the emotions conveyed through the actors' eyes.
The actor auditioning for the role surprised him; he actually came to the audition with his face covered.
Gu Weiwei picked up the sword from the prop shelf, lowered her eyes, and took a deep breath.
When I opened my eyes again, there was a chilling coldness in them.
Then, he wielded his sword, slashing, cutting, and thrusting with swift and decisive movements.
Even though she was acting alone against thin air, it felt as if she were really carrying out a ruthless massacre.
From his eyes to his movements, he exuded a chilling murderous aura.
Suddenly, she swung her sword down, but it seemed to be blocked by something and stopped in mid-air.
Then the male protagonist appeared, blocked her attack, and saved the female protagonist from her clutches.
Gu Weiwei's grip on the sword trembled slightly, and her pupils contracted slightly in her clear eyes, a mixture of shock and suppressed joy surging within them...
She spoke, uttering the only line in the entire scene.
The voice was cold, with a slight tremor and sobs.
"You want to save her?"
...
The usually stern-faced director, Yi An, rarely showed a surprised smile, as if she had unearthed some treasure.
When the executive director first heard that the casting director was the recently popular internet celebrity "Black Swan," he was initially dismissive.
But once the other person got into character and started performing, the person was completely stunned and couldn't take their eyes off them.
The action scenes are clean and crisp, perfectly portraying the cold-blooded ruthlessness of a henchman of the imperial court.
But the moment the male protagonist appeared, his originally cold and gloomy eyes instantly became emotional, captivating everyone's attention.
After Gu Weiwei finished her performance, she bowed slightly and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute," the director, Yi An, called out to her.
Gu Weiwei stopped, removed the veil covering her face, and asked with a slight smile.
"Director Yi, is there a problem?"
Upon seeing the girl's exceptionally beautiful face, Yi'an made a request.
"Could we perform the final scene one more time without the mask on?"
Gu Weiwei nodded, handed the scarf to Qiao Lin, and stood in front of the camera again.
Yi An personally instructed the cameraman on the shooting angles and said to her, "We can begin now."
Gu Weiwei took a deep breath, her eyes turning icy cold in an instant, looking at the camera as if she were seeing the male protagonist she had reunited with.
In an instant, the emotions in his eyes shifted and changed, gripping the heart.
"You want to save her?"
Without the silk scarf covering his face, the scene of him reciting that line is even more impactful.
Moreover, this face is simply born for the big screen.
After watching the footage, the director, Yi An, got up, walked over, and extended her hand.
"Mu Weiwei, Tang Shaoqi is you."
Shen Qiu's performance moved him, but Mu Weiwei's performance... conquered him.
Her performance told him that she... was Tang Shaoqi.
The casting director who had just mocked her stood to the side, his face flushed, extremely embarrassed.
Qiao Lin had a surreal expression on his face. He really... just brought her along to make a brief appearance.
