"Group leader, how can you still sit still? I see that everyone else has already gone to find connections to audition."
Inside a dormitory room of a performing arts department.
A pretty girl walked in and exclaimed in surprise when she saw her roommate playing on her phone.
The girl who was being talked to turned around, revealing an equally pretty face.
However, in a place like the performing arts department where there are many beautiful women, their looks don't actually have much of an advantage.
Since everyone is so beautiful, it's difficult to instantly determine who is better when comparing them.
Just like a line from our CEO Xu in "Tang Bohu and Qiu Xiang", "Even a red flower needs green leaves to complement it".
"Xiaoxin, you didn't even go to the audition, so why are you criticizing me?"
The girl who turned around said something with a smile.
Hearing this, the girl who walked in sighed and said:
"Sigh, what can I do? I can't find any connections either. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to sit still."
By the way, I heard the 'A Chinese Ghost Story' production team is still holding auditions. How about we give it a try?
However, the girl called 'Group Member' simply shook her head and said:
"Come on, Director Xu's requirements are not something that ordinary people can meet. Do you think we are better than Liu Yifei and Dilraba?"
This time, even these two big stars weren't chosen for the 'A Chinese Ghost Story' production team, which shows how high the requirements were for the female lead.
Xiao Xin, however, was unwilling to give up and said:
"Go ahead, there's no harm in going. At most, it's just a matter of putting on makeup and taking a taxi there."
Besides, group leader, we don't necessarily have to compete for the female lead role. I heard they also need quite a few supporting actresses.
You've probably heard about the benefits offered by large film and television companies like Daxu Culture.
If I could get inside, I wouldn't have to worry for the rest of my life, and I'd even get to see our most handsome and wealthy Director Xu..."
Seeing her classmate start to swoon over a crush, 'Group Group' punched her and said:
"Hey, hey, hey, it's broad daylight, can you stop dreaming?"
"Come on, come on, Group Leader, just come with me, okay? If I'm lucky enough to be selected, I'll treat you to a big meal!"
Xiao Xin kept shaking the other person's arm and pleading.
She initially thought she would hold on a little longer, but who knew that after hearing the last half of the sentence, 'Group Group' immediately stood up and said:
"Whether it works out or not, you have to treat me to a big meal. If you agree, let's go now!"
Xiao Xin looked delighted, but then hurriedly said:
"Huh? Isn't that a bit too hasty? You should at least let me put on my makeup first!"
"Okay, then hurry up!"
Zuzu nodded and continued playing on her phone.
Seeing her like this, Xiaoxin said with a look of surprise:
"Group leader, although I know you're naturally beautiful, shouldn't you put on some light makeup? This is, after all, a female lead audition for Da Xu Culture, you should take it seriously!"
The group replied nonchalantly:
"Okay, okay, I'll do my eyebrows and put on lipstick right away. That should be serious enough, right?"
"Sigh, whatever. Anyway, you have to wait for me. I'm going to make myself look beautiful, and then, hehe..."
Seeing that she couldn't persuade the other person, Xiaoxin gave up and went to put on her makeup.
Meanwhile, "Zuzu" waited for several tens of minutes before leisurely walking to the makeup mirror, drawing her eyebrows, and then applying a deep red lipstick.
Clearly, she didn't take the audition seriously; she was only forced to work to earn a big meal!
...
"Mr. Xu, these girls are all very beautiful, and each one is young and energetic. You... didn't find any you interested in?"
Assistant director Lao Zhou asked, somewhat puzzled.
In fact, Xu Lu rarely came to the casting site in person in the past.
Most of the roles were decided by Lao Zhou, so after working together on so many films, Lao Zhou has a pretty good understanding of Director Xu's preferences in casting.
But this time, he was a little confused.
Because there were at least 290, if not 300, girls who came for the audition and those who got in through connections.
There are all kinds of styles and forms, but unfortunately, no one has yet caught Director Xu's eye.
Hearing Lao Zhou's question, Xu Lu nodded and smiled, saying:
"No rush. If we see a promising newcomer, the company can send someone to make contact, sign them, and train them gradually."
Our company will continue to grow, and training new talent is essential; otherwise, we risk facing a talent shortage.
"Okay, Director Xu, I understand!"
Old Zhou sighed inwardly, but nodded in agreement.
The two spoke in hushed tones, and soon another pretty girl stepped forward and introduced herself:
"Hello directors, I'm Lin Xiaoxin, you can call me 'Xiaoxin'. I'm currently studying at..."
Standing in front of the crowd was a tall, beautiful girl with a ponytail and a smooth forehead.
As she introduced herself, she looked at Xu Lu with eager eyes.
Clearly, the girl recognized our CEO Xu, and she must be incredibly excited right now.
In fact, Xiaoxin was indeed like that at this moment; her mind was already in turmoil.
"Oh my god, I didn't expect Director Xu to come here personally to select the actors! Oh my god, I don't know if my makeup is good or not! Oh my god, I mustn't say the wrong thing..."
After Xiaoxin finished her introduction, Assistant Director Lao Zhou asked some questions as usual.
