The next morning, at the dinner table.
Shi Xi listened to Han Chuan's phone call, feeling a little sleepy. "Is it a cameo role or the second female lead?"
Han Chuan: "Is there a difference?"
“There’s a big difference. A cameo role is fine, but a supporting role is not an option,” Shi Xi said listlessly.
"The female lead is Qin Yun, and you're not willing to play a supporting role for her?" Han Chuan said, "She's much more famous than you."
“It’s because she’s famous. If I act well, I’ll get criticized by her fans; if I act badly, I’ll get criticized even more. You should understand this better than I do!” Shi Xi looked at Xie Yunzhou, who was making breakfast in the kitchen. “I want a soft-boiled egg.”
Han Chuan: "But this is a major TV drama that will be broadcast on a major network. If you actually get the rights, the returns will definitely be better than making a web series."
Shi Xi pondered.
Han Chuan: "Take a look at the script first. This character is very well-developed. I thought about it for a long time before agreeing to let you audition."
"Huh? It's just an audition?" Shi Xi was speechless.
She thought the matter was settled!
"Don't think you can be arrogant just because you've acted in a few leading roles and achieved some success. The entertainment industry changes rapidly. Few people become famous overnight, but many gradually fade away." Han Chuan said earnestly, "You need to make steady progress and not stay trapped in your comfort zone forever."
Shi Xi: "Since I'm already in my comfort zone, why would I want to jump out? Am I crazy?"
Han Chuan: ...This conversation has to stop!
After hanging up the phone, Han Chuan sent the script to Shi Xi.
The scripts given for auditions are usually short, consisting of only some character information and a few scenes.
Even with just this little bit of information, you can see how well-developed the character is.
Aside from playing a villainous second female lead in her debut role, Shi Xi has always played the leading lady.
This is the first time I've seriously watched a supporting role audition.
"Eat first, then we'll watch." Xie Yunzhou placed the plate in front of Shi Xi, along with a glass of milk.
"Okay, whatever you say." Shi Xi locked her phone, her eyes crinkling with a smile. "Don't you have to go to work today?"
Xie Yunzhou: "No need, I'm fine."
He came here this time to accompany Shi Xi back to the Hua family home.
There's nothing official business.
"You have a job now?" Xie Yunzhou asked.
"Hmm, I might have to go to an audition." Shi Xi hadn't originally planned to take the role, but it was indeed quite good.
A primetime drama airing on a major television network is indeed something that can only be encountered by chance.
Shi Xi previously starred in "Sky Blue," which received high ratings and positive reviews.
But the script for "Sky Blue" is good, the production team is strong, and the male lead is Lu Zheng, with a lot of veteran actors in the cast.
Many people believe that the high ratings are due to the excellence of the entire production team.
It was not solely Shi Xi's effort.
Shi Xi naturally agreed; the team behind "Sky Blue" was excellent, and she was simply the icing on the cake.
Serious dramas prefer to use established A-list actresses rather than young actresses like Shi Xi who came from web dramas.
Moreover, Shi Xi's company, Kuai Xue Entertainment, is a small company located in a remote corner, with limited resources available to it.
If you want more opportunities, you need to develop further.
afternoon.
The audition was held at the Yanqiao Building.
When Shi Xi arrived at the location, she found that there were many people queuing up for auditions.
The number she received was over ten thousand.
Shi Xi: ...
Are actors really everywhere?
Seeing that she was surrounded by actors she didn't recognize or have never seen before, Shi Xi realized that Han Chuan hadn't actually discussed anything at all.
Han Chuan simply signed her up, right?
Despite wearing sunglasses, Shi Xi was still recognized by the actors next to her.
"You, you're Shi Xi, right?"
