Zhong Buyi smiled and said to the staff member who brought Chu Yu in, "This is the boss of Hualai. Don't you recognize him?"
The employee was stunned, staring at Chu Yu in disbelief.
Chu Yu waved to him.
The first generation of employees at Hualai Film & Television Company are crucial to the company's future development.
On a grand scale, it concerns the future of the entire Chinese-language film and television industry; on a smaller scale, it determines the future trajectory of Hualai.
Chu Yu had to personally oversee the selection process and choose the actors she felt were suitable.
"These are the actors' basic information, and also the model cards. These girls are models. Because there aren't many job opportunities, they came to try acting. You should pay attention to this girl named Hua Qing. I think she has a great figure, beautiful and long legs, which is perfect for action scenes. She's also very fashionable. She'll definitely have no problem developing her career in the Hong Kong entertainment industry."
The mainland and Hong Kong audiences prefer two different types of actors.
Chu Yu and Zhong Buyi are quite selective in their casting choices; they prefer girls with a high level of fashion sense and the potential to go international. It's clear that Chu Yu and Zhong Buyi's ambitions don't lie in the Hong Kong entertainment industry.
What they want is to conquer the world and export Chinese culture.
Hua Qing is tall and slender, standing at 172 cm. Her beautiful legs are particularly eye-catching, and even when she wears loose jeans, her perfect proportions are still undeniable.
She has striking features, and her eyes slant upwards when she looks at people, giving her a cool vibe.
If she dresses in a feminine style, she exudes an indescribable sexiness.
Compared to Ai Fang's provocative sexiness, Hua Qing's temperament is more aloof and ethereal, making her stand out not only in the Chinese entertainment industry but also internationally.
This girl is so attractive, Chu Yu took a liking to her at first sight.
"Bring her into the frame," Chu Yu said softly.
Zhong Buyi gave the staff a wink. Chu Yu, wearing a baseball cap and moving very little, hid behind the camera, and no one noticed her.
Hua Qing was brought here by her classmate, Qian Xiaojie, who majored in broadcasting and hosting but dreamed of becoming an actress.
Qian Xiaojie was too scared to come alone, so she dragged Hua Qing along for courage. Hua Qing had no choice but to come with Qian Xiaojie.
Hua Qing's appearance wasn't the kind that elders liked, and she wasn't popular with the opposite sex. On the contrary, Qian Xiaojie had a pair of expressive eyes, a sweet face, and a round, silver-like face, making her especially popular with elders and men.
Everyone says Qian Xiaojie is beautiful, and Qian Xiaojie herself thinks so too.
There was a reason she brought Hua Qing along.
Hua Qing always looks at people with her eyes wide open, giving men an invisible sense of pressure. She is also cold and aloof, keeping people at a distance. She is not suitable for being a homemaker.
Despite being half a head taller than Qian Xiaojie, Hua Qing showed no sense of crisis. Qian Xiaojie only brought Hua Qing along to be her foil. She felt that if Hua Qing wasn't selected, she would just become a background figure at Hualai Film Company, just like at school or work.
"Hua Qing, don't be angry if you don't get selected," Qian Xiaojie smiled at Hua Qing knowing her own strengths, looking completely harmless. "You know, you're not the kind of face that the general public would like. My mom says you have thick lips, your face isn't full enough, you don't have a lucky face, and you're even a bit of a jinx to your husband."
Hua Qing is the kind of person who doesn't engage in internal strife.
Qian Xiaojie was her friend, so she said it without hesitation. She felt that Qian Xiaojie was just telling the truth. However, she didn't care what others thought of her. If she didn't have a blessed appearance, so be it; if she was considered unlucky for her husband, so be it.
She wished she could kill all the men in the world.
"I'm the boss because I'm cursed to kill men!" That's what Hua Qing thought.
Seeing that Hua Qing was not speaking, Qian Xiaojie thought that Hua Qing was angry, so she immediately covered her mouth and looked apologetic. "Hua Qing, you're not angry with me, are you? You know I'm a straightforward person. These words were not said by me. My mother was just talking nonsense. I will never tell you such nasty things again."
Hua Qing shook her head, saying indifferently:
“I don’t care. Whether she says it or not is up to her. Let your mother say whatever she wants.”
Hua Qing genuinely didn't care, but her cold and aloof demeanor always made Qian Xiaojie feel like she was hard to control.
Hua Qing is different from all other girls, as if she lives outside of China. Such a girl is too cool, so cool that boys can't stand her thoughts, and girls can't accept her unconventionality, so they make up some gossip to talk about her.
Hua Qing was isolated at school, and only Qian Xiaojie played with her. Later, the two gradually became familiar with each other, and Qian Xiaojie finally understood Hua Qing.
She wasn't pretending not to care; she genuinely didn't care what others said. This girl lived her life according to other people's opinions, never getting upset or sad because of what others thought. Sometimes, Qian Xiaojie particularly envied her carefree attitude, but also felt a little jealous, fearing that Hua Qing would become the kind of person she admired.
Fortunately, Hua Qing was not as popular as her, either at school or in society.
Qian Xiaojie held Hua Qing's hand and smiled sweetly, "It's okay. If I get selected but you don't, I'll definitely help you out in the future! I heard that film and television companies provide a lot of clothes for their employees. If I have more clothes than I can wear, I'll definitely give them to you."
Hua Qing shrugged indifferently. Just then, a staff member walked over and asked, "Who is...?"
Qian Xiaojie immediately stood up and said happily:
"Hello, this is me. The director called me, right?"
The staff member paused, glanced at the photo on the information card, and seemed a little uncertain.
Qian Xiaojie smiled at him, trying to leave a good impression on the staff. There were only two people there, her and Hua Qing. Hua Qing wasn't as pretty as her, and she was skinny with a fierce look on her face. Who would like an actress like that?
She said that even if Hua Qing were selected, she would only be a supporting actress!
The kind of supporting female character who makes things difficult for the female lead, slaps her, and does bad things behind her back.
