The news of Ye Cang suing a marketing account was a hot topic on the Internet for two days, but was then overshadowed by more recent entertainment news. Except for Shen Huai, who kept in touch with the law firm and knew the progress of the case, other netizens were attracted by the upcoming Kim Young Awards.

The Kim Young Awards is the highest award for domestic television dramas, and the competition this year is particularly fierce. For the Best Actress alone, the six nominees all have the strength to win the award, and among them is Xu Anqi, who has made a strong push into the first-line star this year.

Shen Huai just glanced at the information quickly and left it alone.

He has been too busy recently. Just after he solved Ye Cang's problem, Chu Meibo's audition began.

Because he hasn't found an assistant yet, he can only temporarily follow Chu Meibo to the audition.

When they arrived at the scene, they found that there were quite a few people who came to audition, but most of them were auditioning for the second and third female roles.

As for the role of Kui Ji, there were suddenly fewer people coming, but Shen Huai saw a familiar figure among them - Liu Qingqing, the actress who was very popular ten years ago.

Liu Qingqing sat on a chair, wearing big sunglasses on her face, and was in a very unhappy mood.

She has been very smooth since her debut. She retired from the film industry and got married when she was at the peak of her popularity. She didn't expect that now that she is back to acting, she can only play such an unpleasant villain and has to compete with so many people.

The assistant handed her a cup of coffee: "Sister Qingqing, with your qualifications and acting skills, who here can compare with you? What do you have to worry about?"

Liu Qingqing's eyes swept over the others, and sure enough, many people saw her whispering to each other, and even one or two had a gloomy expression. I think they knew that they would definitely have no chance in front of her.

Liu Qingqing was relieved immediately.

When it was her turn to audition, Liu Qingqing performed very well. Although she didn't think much of this role, she still had her acting skills and had performed on the spot before. After

Liu Qingqing finished her performance, she was quite satisfied with her performance. Everyone on the scene, except Director Gao, nodded frequently.

After she left, the casting director carefully asked Director Gao: "Director Gao, how about we just cast the role of Kui Ji?"

Director Gao frowned: "She doesn't give me the right feeling. Kui Ji shouldn't be such a gorgeous and charming woman. She is cruel by nature. The more suffering others feel, the happier she is. Even if she smiles tenderly, her eyes should be cold and hard..."

"My Director Gao!" The casting director didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "The role of Kui Ji is not the heroine, but she is so hateful. If she really has the acting skills you said, who would play this role? Although Liu Qingqing's acting skills are a little worse, she is not bad compared to others. Besides, if she really participates in the show, her identity can also be marketed. Don't you think so?"

Director Gao sighed and said, "Yes."

"We have to audition the second and third female roles later. If we waste too much time here, we will be late there."

Director Gao knew that what he said was right, but he was still unwilling in his heart: "Let's wait and see. If there is no better one later, let's choose her."

The casting director knew that although he had a good temper, he would not allow others to disobey his decision. He did not dare to say more, so he had to speed up the time and looked through the personnel list: "Next, Chu Meibo."

Hearing her name being called, Chu Meibo stood up and pushed the door open and walked in.

As soon as she stood in the middle, the casting director frowned because this actor was too young. In the original book, Kui Ji was a wicked witch who did all kinds of evil. Can she act like this at such a young age?

Director Gao was also looking at Chu Meibo.

The girl in front of me has a small face the size of a palm, a pair of almond-shaped eyes that seem to be smiling all the time, with the corners of her eyes slightly upturned, and when she smiles, she looks like a pair of crescent moons. Under her small, round nose, although she has a pair of lips, they are plump and look happy or angry.

If she had gone to audition for the role of Junior Sister with her looks, she would have been very suitable, but she came to audition for the role of Kui Ji, which is interesting.

The casting director said, "Let's start from now on, and act out the part where Kuiji's identity is discovered."

In the original novel, Kuiji pretended to be an orphan to get close to the male protagonist Chang Yu. After doing something evil, she left a clue and was discovered by Chang Yu. Chang Yu came to question her. Kuiji pretended to be pitiful at first, but after learning that Chang Yu no longer trusted her, her pitiful expression suddenly faded. She laughed at Chang Yu while telling him the truth that she had killed Chang Yu's master, forcing Chang Yu to have a heart attack in grief and anger, and he was almost killed by her. Fortunately, the heroine arrived in time and saved Chang Yu.

At this moment, Chu Meibo had to act out this part.

Not only did she have to grasp the transition of expressions, but she also had to recite long passages of dialogue, which was extremely difficult.

However, Chu Meibo didn't seem to realize it. She nodded to the assistant and confirmed the start. Her expression suddenly changed.

She half-knelt on the ground, her little face half-raised, her eyebrows slightly frowned, and her eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist. She said softly: "That was not me, Brother Yu, I have never done such a thing..."

The assistant said coldly: "You are still quibbling. Now the evidence is conclusive. I won't believe anything you say!"

Chu Meibo raised her eyes. Her eyebrows were still slightly frowned, but the corners of her lips were bent. The mist in her eyes slowly dissipated, revealing a cruel smile hidden behind them.

"Brother Yu, you really make me sad."

The voice was still the same, but it suddenly changed from a weak and fragile woman to a slippery and terrifying venomous snake.

Director Gao felt goosebumps all over his body. He leaned forward excitedly to see more clearly.

The assistant picked up a knife and pointed it at her: "Witch! You killed innocent people. I will kill you today to enforce justice!"

Chu Meibo suddenly laughed. She dodged the opponent's knife with a slight move to the side. She smiled and said: "If you want to kill me, just kill me. Why do you have to make up a reason? Your so-called famous and upright sects are so hypocritical..."

Chang Yu was furious and rushed towards her with a knife. However, there was no fear in Kui Ji's eyes, but they became brighter and brighter. She provoked Chang Yu one sentence after another, just like a cat teasing a mouse. However, Chang Yu tried every trick, but couldn't even touch the corner of her clothes.

Kui Ji smiled: "Is this all you can do? I am really disappointed."

Full of hatred, Chang Yu aroused his strength, and his swordsmanship became more and more fierce. Finally, he cut Kui Ji. When Kui Ji saw the blood, her eyes suddenly turned cold. However, it was not because she was injured, but because she was injured by a small pawn that she looked down on, which made her very angry.

However, Kui Ji's eyes were cold, and her smile became sweeter. She said lightly: "Too bad, you are as useless as your useless master, and you can be killed easily..." Her

voice was malicious. Seeing Chang Yu trapped by the inner demon, she raised the sword and was about to stab him.

"Cut!"

The casting director called a stop, and Chu Meibo instantly broke away from the role.

Director Gao's eyes lit up, and he had goosebumps the whole time. The murderous intent she showed because of her injury even frightened him as a bystander. Although her appearance was different from what was described in the original novel, her acting skills made up for it.

Director Gao determined without hesitation that this was the Aoi Ji he wanted.

When he saw Chu Meibo's performance, he had already outlined the filming of Aoi Ji's key scenes in his mind. He hadn't felt this way for a long time, the fighting spirit inspired by meeting a good actor.

Thinking of this, he felt it was a pity. Compared with the character of Aoi Ji, the personalities of the male and female protagonists were a bit bland.

Fortunately, Kui Ji is a villain. The better she performs, the deeper the audience's hatred for her will be, and the more they will be able to empathize with the protagonist. Otherwise, if Chu Meibo really plays the second or third female lead, she might steal all the limelight from the heroine.

When the casting director saw Director Gao's expression, he knew that he had already decided on this actor.

Sure enough, Director Gao clapped his hands and said, "Kui Ji has been found, let the rest of the actors go back."

Chu Meibo raised her eyebrows, not surprised by the result.

-

Chu Meibo walked out of the audition room, and Shen Huai just hung up the phone and looked at her.

Although he was confident in Chu Meibo's acting skills, there were too many variables in casting, especially since Chu Meibo was still a newcomer and her opponent was Liu Qingqing.

As an agent, Shen Huai had to ensure that Chu Meibo would not lose the role due to off-field factors, but now it seems that Chu Meibo's performance is unexpectedly good, and it is clear that this insurance is no longer needed.

On the other hand, Liu Qingqing never thought that such a role that she thought was a sure thing would be taken away by an unknown newcomer.

The casting director explained to her anxiously, and he obviously did not expect such a change to happen.

Liu Qingqing looked at Chu Meibo's back with jealousy and hatred, and then left angrily with her assistant. Chu

Meibo didn't care at all, but Shen Huai took a second look at Liu Qingqing.

Shen Huai retracted his gaze and said to Chu Meibo: "Congratulations on your success in your first audition."

Chu Meibo raised her eyebrows: "Is there any reward?"

Shen Huai showed a faint smile: "What do you want?"

"You agreed so readily?" Chu Meibo deliberately said, "Aren't you afraid that I will make some unreasonable demands?"

Shen Huai was very determined: "You won't, you are very sensible on this point."

Chu Meibo wanted to tease him, but Shen Huai's eyes were so sharp that she lost interest.

She said uninterested: "Forget it, there is no reward for such a small thing."

Shen Huai said: "Let's not talk about rewards, I really have something to discuss with you."

Chu Meibo: "?"

Shen Huai: "I have transferred your student status from Donghai City to Zhongjing City. In a month, you will report to the new school."

The smile on Chu Meibo's face froze.

"Go to school???"
