The girl stood with her back to the window, dressed simply in a white T-shirt and black casual trousers. Her legs were hidden in the trouser legs, but you could still tell that she had a well-proportioned figure and long, straight legs.
Cui Jinsheng was the first to push open the door and go inside.
"Are you here to apply for a stunt double position?"
The girl heard the door open and slowly turned around.
Upon seeing the girl's stunningly beautiful face, the three men were stunned almost simultaneously.
Cui Jinsheng and Ma Demin were thoroughly amazed.
Wang Lun, however, was astonished!
Isn't this Bai Qianmo from the audition just now?
Thinking of what Bai Xiruo had said, Wang Lun's face showed a hint of contempt.
"Miss Bai really went to great lengths to become famous!"
Bai Qianmo raised her eyebrows slightly: "There are many ways to become famous. Does being a stunt double give you a chance to appear on screen?"
Wang Lun was convinced that Bai Qianmo was willing to do anything to get into the production team in order to become famous, and he was speechless after hearing Bai Qianmo's words.
Although stunt doubles have high salaries, it is also a high-risk profession.
Want to become famous to work as a stunt double? You'd have to be out of your mind.
Ma Demin snapped out of his daze and looked at Wang Lun in surprise: "You two know each other?"
Wang Lun explained, "Just now at the audition, this Miss Bai auditioned for a maid role, but she was rejected."
Ma Demin nodded knowingly: "This face is not suitable for being a maid."
"Little girl, do you know what a stunt double does?" Cui Jinsheng asked softly.
Bai Qianmo looked at the middle-aged man in his forties in front of her. Unlike other directors, he didn't have a big belly, nor did he have a bald patch on his head.
Although he wasn't exactly handsome, his refined demeanor and resolute gaze inspired trust in others.
She nodded slightly: "I know, it's about performing all the high-risk stunts for the actresses."
Cui Jinsheng said, "This requires very professional martial arts skills. Can you do it?"
"I've learned some self-defense techniques, but I'd say I'm only at the beginner level," Bai Qianmo replied modestly.
Cui Jinsheng saw that this young girl was quite calm and reserved despite her young age. When facing them, she was neither arrogant nor impatient, but calm and composed, showing a remarkable demeanor.
Would you mind sparring with our stunt doubles for a bit?
Bai Qianmo had come prepared, and upon hearing Cui Jinsheng's words, she agreed without hesitation.
"Can!"
Cui Jinsheng nodded, took out his phone to call his stunt instructor, but was pulled aside by Wang Lun.
"Director Cui, this girl has questionable character and a terrible reputation. It's not appropriate for her to stay in our crew, is it?"
Cui Jinsheng frowned slightly and glanced at Bai Qianmo.
“I’ll give a chance to a young girl who dares to be a stunt double, just for that courage. If all she knows are fancy moves, then I’ll have to ask her to leave.”
Seeing that Cui Jinsheng was determined, Wang Lun didn't say anything more.
However, he felt in his heart that Bai Qianmo probably didn't even have any real martial arts skills and was just trying to get noticed by the director.
With that in mind, I stopped worrying about it.
Cui Jinsheng made a phone call, and a stuntman arrived quickly.
The stunt instructor looked to be in his thirties. He had been practicing martial arts for many years. He wasn't very tall, but he had a muscular build, which showed that he had been practicing for a long time.
"Old Yu, go easy on her. She's just a young girl, don't hit her in the face," Cui Jinsheng kindly reminded him.
"Don't worry, Director Cui, I'll be careful," the stuntman assured him repeatedly. He hadn't expected that he would be sparring with a young girl.
"Little girl, let's stop here. If you feel you can't handle it, call it a stop." He didn't know his own strength when he punched her, and the girl had delicate skin.
It's always good to give someone a heads-up beforehand.
Bai Qianmo stood five steps away from the stuntman and nodded politely.
"Can we begin?"
The stunt instructor got ready, and Ma Demin shouted slogans from the side.
"start!"
The stunt instructor shouted and charged towards Bai Qianmo.
He didn't want to bully the little girl, so he thought he would use a front sweep kick to knock her to the ground without making her fall too hard.
As his leg swept towards Bai Qianmo, Bai Qianmo shifted her feet slightly, dodged to the side, and steadily avoided his attack.
The stunt instructor was stunned for a moment. Judging from the way the little girl moved and turned, she was definitely a trained fighter.
Then, with a tentative mindset, the stunt instructor put in some effort and changed his moves.
Bai Qianmo always managed to dodge them steadily. As the stuntman's moves became more and more complicated, Bai Qianmo countered each move.
After the two had been fighting for more than ten minutes, the stuntman was already red-faced and sweating profusely, while Bai Qianmo only had a thin layer of sweat on her face.
The outcome is still clear.
"Alright, that's enough for now!" Cui Jinsheng stared intently at Bai Qianmo.
A meaningful smile played on his lips.
It's like searching for him a thousand times in the crowd, only to find him suddenly standing there where the lights are dim.
This girl is stunningly beautiful, has a great figure, and what's rare is that she's also incredibly skilled in martial arts.
Isn't this just like Nie Wuxin in real life?
Nie Wuxin is the number one assassin of the Wusheng Sect, and his martial arts skills are unfathomable.
So when choosing the actor for Nie Wuxin, he couldn't help but think that if the actor also had some martial arts skills under the conditions he had proposed, that would be perfect.
I never expected this perfect person to appear so quickly!
Pulling himself back to reality, Cui Jinsheng suppressed his overwhelming joy.
"Miss Bai, you may not be suited for the profession of stunt double!"
Upon hearing this result, Bai Qianmo frowned slightly.
Should she check the Chinese almanac before going out today?
The thought had barely crossed his mind when he heard Cui Jinsheng chuckle softly, "Because there's another role that's more suitable for you."
As Cui Jinsheng's perfect partner, Ma Demin immediately understood what Cui Jinsheng was planning.

As Rong Yu left the studio with the script, he was still waiting outside.
Upon seeing Bai Qianmo approaching, he immediately walked over to her: "Qianmo, where did you go just now?"
Bai Qianmo glanced at the script in her hand, feeling that everything she had just experienced was quite surreal.
Originally, I wanted to stay in the crew as a stunt double, but unexpectedly, I didn't get the stunt double job, but instead got an important role.
She had just finished reading the original novel, "The Phoenix's Journey," a few days ago. Among the female characters in the novel, the most outstanding one was not Su Jinxiu, but Nie Wuxin.
Compared to Su Jinxiu's protagonist halo, she is loved by the male lead, doted on by her master, and protected by a demon lord mother.
Nie Wuxin was different. Born into the Wusheng Gate, she was destined to be a victim of others' killing throughout her life.
The mother I respected most was not my biological mother; I kept her around simply to take advantage of her.
Such a person, with a withdrawn, eccentric, flamboyant, and domineering personality, would actually be quite interesting to portray.
