"What? You said she hasn't left yet?"
Ji Yuan, who was reading the files in the room, paused and asked, "Did she ask you to come in?"
"no."
Xiaopang scratched the back of his head, looking confused. "Teacher Zhou Man didn't ask me to come in to pass on the message. She just sat there the whole time, watching me put my things away and even helping me clean up."
Ji Yuan frowned.
Xiaopang said cautiously, "How about asking her to come in and ask?"
“…”
The marks between Ji Yuan's eyebrows became deeper.
If Su Man came to him and asked for an audition, or directly asked his assistant to come in and plead for her, he would reject her without hesitation.
But now she hasn't said a word, so even if he wants to reject her, he has no reason to.
Ji Yuan felt like he was punching cotton. He rubbed his brows and said, "Call her in."
"Why."
Xiaopang responded and walked out happily.
-
Outside the house, Su Man was still sitting in her original position. The afternoon sun shone on her shoulder blades, and her whole body was glowing with the warm sun.
Xiaopang couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he is indeed a professional white moonlight actor.
"Teacher Zhou Man, our Ji Yuan director invites you in."
Su Man smiled and nodded, "Thank you for the trouble."
She was neither ecstatic nor surprised, as if everything was already under her control.
When Su Man entered, the things in the room had been put away, even the cover of the VCR was closed, as if they were about to get off work.
This situation was extremely unfavorable for Su Man, but she introduced herself as if nothing had happened, "Hello Director Ji Yuan, I'm actress Zhou Man. I came here today to audition for the female lead."
Ji Yuan looked up from the desk and looked at Su Man with scrutiny.
He was thin, his navy blue shirt highlighting his superior shoulders, and a thin layer of stubble adorned his angular chin. His eyes, shaded by thick black-framed glasses, exuded a sense of aloofness and abstinence.
Ji Yuan crossed his arms, his lips slightly drooping, "I never told you I was calling you in for an audition."
Su Man let out a long "Oh," "So Director Ji Yuan is really just like those ordinary directors, judging people by appearance. In that case, I won't waste our time, I'll be leaving now."
“…”
Ji Yuan was stunned. In just a few seconds, Su Man had already touched the door handle.
He subconsciously said, "Wait a minute."
"Director Ji Yuan, is there anything else?"
Su Man's attitude at this moment is completely different from what it was just now. She was gentle as water just now, but now she is as cold as ice.
And her hand was still on the door handle, as if she would leave at any moment.
But Ji Yuan was no pushover. He quickly realized that Su Man was trying to retreat in order to advance. His eyes grew even colder. "Do you think I'll let you audition just by provoking you?"
Su Man looked straight into his eyes, as if to see into his heart, "I'm not trying to provoke him, I just want to see if Director Ji Yuan is the kind of director I'm talking about."
Ji Yuan was not easily fooled by Su Man. He said calmly, "You think judging people by their appearance is a derogatory term, but I think it is a compliment. It allows me to filter out the results I want as quickly as possible."
Su Man raised the corners of her eyes. "Yes, it can save a lot of time, but then you'll also miss out on a lot of unexpected surprises."
“…”
Their eyes met, and in a flash, they exchanged glances.
After a moment, Ji Yuan opened a blank file.
"Turn it on."
When the fat boy next to him heard these two words, he quickly opened the cover of the camera.
After a few minutes of debugging, he stood behind and made an "OK" gesture to Ji Yuan.
-
Seeing that everything was going according to plan, Suman breathed a sigh of relief.
She took off her coat and put it aside with the script, waiting for Ji Yuan to pick a part in the script for her to audition.
But Su Man waited for a full minute, but Ji Yuan still didn't move, looking as if it had nothing to do with him.
Su Man realized that Ji Yuan was deliberately making things difficult for her, or perhaps he wanted to see whether her acting skills were worth him abandoning his casting philosophy.
After knowing his purpose, Su Man felt relieved.
She closed her eyes briefly, and when she opened them again, her temperament had completely changed.
She first scratched the back of her head and mumbled something, looking cute and adorable without realizing it.
Su Man looked around in confusion, and her sight suddenly stopped at Ji Yuan. She stretched out her slender white finger and pointed at Ji Yuan, "Hey, brother, may I ask, are you married?"
...
"Sweet and Sour" is a modern comedy that travels from ancient times to the present. It tells the story of Zhuzhu, an ancient pig farmer, who travels to the modern era with her sow Dahua, which triggers all kinds of ridiculous stories.
The scene played out by Su Man was exactly the scene where Zhu Zhu, in order to breed Da Hua, was asking around to see if anyone had a man of the right age, ah, a male pig of the right age.
As for why I ask people whether they are married first, this is Zhuzhu’s personal habit.
You can't just go to someone's house and ask, "Do you have a boar? Pull it out for me so I can breed it."
This is too direct. Zhuzhu is a girl after all, so she has to exchange a few pleasantries before getting to the point.
At this moment, Su Man's eyes moved and there was a flattering smile on the corner of her mouth.
But she was a farm girl, and even if she was a little scheming, it was all shown on her face, and people could tell at a glance that she had some ulterior motive.
“…”
Seeing Su Man's performance, Ji Yuan's expression relaxed a little, and he continued to recite the next line in the script, "Marriage? Beautiful, your way of speaking is too classical. Why are you asking this? Do you mean that?"
