You have to admit, these two have great chemistry. It's the kind of story where the villainous female supporting character constantly slaps the innocent female lead and frequently comes to provoke her. The innocent female lead is bullied by her and has no other choice but to try her best to see through the villain's schemes time and time again.
"Chuchu, go and call Zhong Buyi over here."
Zhong Buyi thought something had happened. After listening to Chu Yu's words, he stared at the two of them for a long time. And sure enough, there was a strange chemical reaction between them.
However, Wang Yuling was an oddball; she actually carried a small white flower as she walked towards the hall.
Zhong Buyi inexplicably found these two faces quite interesting.
"You, it's you!" Zhong Buyi pointed at the little white flower and asked in surprise, "What's your name?"
Xiao Baihua was stunned. She had bright features but a cool and aloof appearance, which was a very appealing look to audiences.
She doesn't look very tall, but that's because of Wang Yuling's high heels. Plus, she has a small frame, so she doesn't appear tall. In fact, she's not much shorter than Chu Yu.
"Me? My name is Tang Xiaohong. I'm from out of town and I came to Beijing to work," Xiaobaihua said.
Tang Xiaohong's name doesn't sound like that of a popular movie star.
Chu Yu glanced at Zhong Buyi, "What do you think of him?"
Zhong Buyi stared at Tang Xiaohong in the camera lens. This girl was simply born for the camera. She had a small face, vivid features, and was beautiful. Even when she didn't speak, she had a cool and aloof air about her.
Wearing high heels and a suit, she exudes a powerful aura, but her fashion sense is slightly lacking, so He Lu and Chu Yu need to help her design clothes, do her makeup, and style her hair.
Zhong Buyi affirmed Chu Yu's judgment. Tang Xiaohong was indeed very good. On the first day of the audition, the selection of the female lead and the female supporting actress was undoubtedly a bit too fast. However, apart from Tang Xiaohong, the others were all a bit lacking.
“Actually, the person I like the most is you,” Zhong Buyi said to Chu Yu.
He truly believed in Chu Yu. Of the hundreds of people who came, none were as beautiful as Chu Yu. If Chu Yu hadn't refused to be on camera, why would there have been such a grand audition? He could have just brought Chu Yu directly.
Chu Yu smiled and thanked him for his kind words. She knew only how to study and make money, and she really didn't know anything about acting.
Being a celebrity isn't something anyone can do. You need both emotional intelligence and IQ to go far. Chu Yu has already become a sugar daddy, so why would she want to be an actress again?
After Chu Yu finished the interview, he sent Tang Xiaohong back home.
"Is your foot alright?" Wang Yuling waited at the door, wanting to ask if she needed any help.
Tang Xiaohong shook her head despite the pain, "I twisted my ankle, but I should be fine. Thank you for earlier."
"It was just a small favor."
She was tall and not very friendly, but Tang Xiaohong knew she was a very good person.
"By the way, when you went in, did the director tell you to come back in three days?"
"He told you that, and he said the same thing to you? I guess we were both selected, but we just don't know what roles we'll play."
Tang Xiaohong dared not dream of becoming the female lead. She auditioned for a minor supporting role, who was the female lead's mascot and often used her inexperience to highlight the female lead.
Tang Xiaohong doesn't know how to act. She just happened to see the audition information in the newspaper and came to give it a try. Unexpectedly, several hundred people came to the scene, and the auditorium was almost full.
"Was that girl the female lead? She's so beautiful," Tang Xiaohong exclaimed.
Wang Yuling blinked, unsure who she was referring to.
"That pretty girl who interviewed us! She's definitely the lead actress. With a lead actress this beautiful, we're all just supporting characters, it's too much pressure for us."
Wang Yuling was both amused and exasperated. "Didn't you see her name tag? She's not the female lead; she's an investor surnamed Zhou. Everyone calls her President Zhou."
"Invest...investor?"
Are there really investors this young?
Tang Xiaohong heard that this drama had an investment of over a million yuan. She couldn't understand how President Zhou could earn so much money when everyone was about the same age.
Being rich and beautiful made Tang Xiaohong feel even more inferior.
Three days later, when Tang Xiaohong learned that the production team had chosen her as the female lead, she felt that the director and investors must have made a mistake in their judgment. She was good-looking, but she was too plain!
Even her mother complained that she didn't know how to dress up.
How could someone like her possibly be the female lead?
Tang Xiaohong looked at her name on the list, jogged to catch up with Chu Yu, blushed, and panted, "President Zhou, please wait a moment."
"Xiao Hong? Is something wrong?"
Tang Xiaohong still felt uneasy, always feeling that the production team was a scam. Otherwise, why would a production team choose someone like her with no experience as the female lead? And even let her join the team for free closed training.
The training conditions are even more generous. The production team will find teachers of physical fitness, acting, singing, dancing and modeling to teach and train them. There are even professional designers to teach them how to design costumes.
All of this is simply to make them appear better on screen, hoping they have the form and soul of a designer.
Furthermore, so many renowned teachers conduct closed-door training programs without charging a single penny, and they even receive a monthly salary of 35 yuan.
Where in the world is there such a good thing?
Tang Xiaohong felt it was unreal and suspected she had been scammed. She wanted to talk to Mr. Zhou to determine whether she should report it to the police.
"Mr. Zhou, are you sure you want me to be the female lead? I don't know anything, and I have such a rustic air about me..."
Chu Yu smiled and asked her in return, "These days, how many people aren't a bit old-fashioned?"
Tang Xiaohong was stumped by her question. Yes, these days everyone is struggling to make ends meet, so where would they get the money for makeup and dressing up?
Most people dressed in outdated and unfashionable clothes; Tang Xiaohong's outdatedness was simply a matter of following the trend.
“But you also provide paid training. I’ve never seen a place where you can get paid for free classes without spending a penny.”
