Even after they were seated at their usual restaurant near the school, Lin Xiaoxin still couldn't believe that her best friend had actually auditioned for the lead role.
This is a hundred times more bizarre than her taking that supporting role.
Although getting a supporting role in a film by a top director like Xu is already incredibly lucky.
However, she was chosen to be the female lead, a role that even big stars like Liu Yifei and Dilraba couldn't secure.
This kind of luck is more than just good fortune; it's enough to make someone furious!
"Group leader, tell me what exactly happened? I was so surprised that I forgot to ask you for details!"
Seeing that it would be a while before the food was served, Lin Xiaoxin asked curiously.
"I don't know either. I just went in and introduced myself, and before I was even finished, Director Xu said it was okay. I asked why, and he said I could be the lead..."
Wang Zuxian didn't hide anything about her audition process, and even revealed her innermost thoughts:
"Moreover, I didn't even have a performance segment. Director Xu just asked me if I was willing to be the female lead."
Of course I'd be willing! Only a fool wouldn't.
Then he told me to go back and prepare, saying that I wouldn't have as much freedom with the crew later, and that I should handle everything properly.
"Oh my god! Group leader, I thought that getting the role of the supporting actress in the audition was an incredible stroke of luck.
Compared to you, my wealth is nothing but a drop in the ocean; yours is the real fortune.
Think about it carefully, which of the leading ladies who have worked with Director Xu didn't become big stars?
There's already a term in the industry called "Xu Girl" (a term referring to actresses who have worked with director Xu), so you'll become a big star too.
Lin Xiaoxin said with absolute certainty.
Upon hearing this, Wang Zuxian replied with a sincere expression:
"Thank you, Xiaoxin. If you hadn't insisted that I come with you, I wouldn't have had this opportunity!"
"You definitely have to thank me. You have to pay for today's meal. And when we get to the film set, you have to protect me and not let anyone bully me..."
Lin Xiaoxin said with a proud look on her face.
"Huh? But I'm a newbie too. Maybe other people will bully me."
Wang Zuxian said with a speechless expression.
Lin Xiaoxin shook her head directly and said:
"You don't know this, do you? You were chosen by Director Xu as the leading lady through a public audition. You're the one who bullies others, who would dare to bully you?"
"Well... okay, if anyone bullies you, I'll help you, because you're my best friend!"
Wang Zuxian had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Because they were so happy, the two of them naturally had a big meal.
Once the news spread throughout the school, classmates and even people from the same department came to congratulate him, and then, inevitably, they ate and drank a lot that night.
In fact, if it were just a role in a regular film crew, people might be a little jealous.
But Wang Zuxian became the leading lady for Xu, the most popular director in the industry, so no one could even have such a little crush on her.
Because everyone in the industry knows that Director Xu has the best box office appeal in the world!
For acting students like them, the ultimate goal in the first stage is to become a character under a famous director.
It can be said that Wang Zuxian skipped countless small goals and directly achieved the final goal of the first stage.
They are even just one step away from the next ultimate goal: becoming a top star.
Because everyone knows one thing: every leading actress who has worked with Director Xu is now a star.
...
On the other side, Lao Zhou, the assistant director, also spoke up, puzzled:
"Director Xu, isn't it a bit hasty and casual to choose the female lead like this? At least she should have auditioned!"
In response to Lao Zhou's doubts, Xu Lu smiled and said:
"It's alright, my taste is still good, and this Wang Zuxian's appearance matches my understanding of 'Xiaoqian'."
What could Lao Zhou say after hearing this?
Fine, you're the director, so you're in charge of everything!
In fact, there are two reasons why Director Xu was able to decide on the female lead at a glance.
The first reason is self-evident.
It's what he just explained to Lao Zhou: Wang Zuxian is quite pleasing to his eye.
Because her appearance is remarkably similar to the actress who starred in "A Chinese Ghost Story" on Earth, with an almost uncanny resemblance.
This first reason basically made Director Xu make up his mind.
The second reason is rather mystical.
That's why Xu Lu didn't bring it up earlier.
Just like a long time ago, he could basically tell whether a character was suitable or not at a glance when choosing one, because he used the skill 'Qiankun Wangqi'.
Xu Lu also used this skill throughout today's interview.
When the girl named Lin Xiaoxin came in, our CEO Xu could tell at a glance that this girl had good 'luck'.
What's rather strange is that her luck seems to have been 'thanks to someone else's good fortune'.
So Xu Lu asked Lin Xiaoxin if she had any friends who came with her to the audition.
Lin Xiaoxin's affirmative answer confirmed his guess.
Then, amidst the puzzled expressions of Lao Zhou and Lin Xiaoxin, Xu Lu gave a supporting role to the cast.
When Wang Zuxian walked in for her audition...
Our CEO Xu could tell at a glance that the other party's 'luck' far exceeded that of ordinary people, and... it was very special.
