In August, the scorching sun hangs high in the sky, baking the ground with its intense heat. From a distance, you can even see wisps of steam rising into the air.
Lin Yang, who had just sneaked out of the hospital, was enduring the sweltering heat as she stood at the back of a long queue.
Today is a great day for the audition for the female lead in Director Zheng's film "Dynasty," and the long queue is filled with stars from all walks of life.
Director Zheng's film! They're still casting the female lead!
The original owner gave up on the opportunity because her body had not yet fully recovered and she had a physical fear of the circus.
Now that she, Lin Yang, is facing this situation, she absolutely cannot miss this golden opportunity!
In the original owner's memory, she used underhanded tactics to squeeze out the actresses that the investors had put in, got the role of the second female lead, and then won the Best Supporting Actress award.
Wouldn't it be great if she won the Best Actress award?
So, while Wang Rui was out buying food, Lin Yang, despite her aching back, secretly signed up for the audition for "Dynasty".
"It's so hot! Such a long line! When will it ever end? I'm dying of heat! There's not even a shady spot. Can't you consider those of us who arrived later? I'm dying of heatstroke! I'm going to get heatstroke!"
"That's right, that's right! They won't even let us bring assistants, there's not even anyone to hold an umbrella or hand us water!"
"Just bear with it! What can we do? This is Director Zheng's film!"
Behind Lin Yang, wails and complaints rose up one after another.
Looking ahead, all I could see was another slow-moving, long line, stretching as far as the eye could see.
At the end of the long line was just a temporary tent set up for the director and producer to watch these women audition.
Despite the tough audition environment, at most some people complained, just like before, but no one left halfway through.
Auditions for roles under Director Zheng's direction are notoriously difficult.
Look at other directors' auditions, aren't they all sitting in air-conditioned rooms, staying in high-rise buildings, interviewing one by one?
Director Zheng stands out from the rest, his approach is completely different from other directors. No matter how big your star is or what role you want to play, sorry, apart from this temporary tent, there is nowhere for you to audition.
Moreover, the salaries for the roles he plays are all 30% lower than the market rate.
Despite this, the scene was just as Lin Yang was seeing, with a steady stream of celebrities coming to visit.
"Good luck to you! Good luck brings joy and love! Good luck to us all!" Just as Lin Yang was getting extremely bored, the embarrassing ringtone suddenly rang out in the crowd.
She actually forgot to turn off the mute!
And damn it, this tasteless ringtone was set by the original owner. It was the first time she had received a call like this, and she never expected that it would be the extremely cheerful song "Good Luck" as her ringtone.
Before she could even feign composure and put on a show, pretending it wasn't her phone ringing.
But to everyone's surprise, the two ears in front and behind seemed to have been blessed with divine intervention, so sharp! They immediately and accurately focused their gaze on her.
To be honest, this is the first time in her life she has been so embarrassed. Is it too late for her to dig a hole and hide?
"Ha...ha..." Lin Yang forced a wry smile, awkwardly laughing as he pulled out his still-ringing phone in full view of everyone.
I glanced down at the caller ID and sure enough, it was Sister Wang calling!
"Yang, where did you run off to? I've practically turned the hospital upside down!" It was clear from Wang Rui's voice that she was very anxious after discovering that Yang wasn't staying obediently in the ward.
With so many people staring at her, Lin Yang lowered her head again, her voice also becoming softer, "I went out for some fresh air and forgot to say hello. I'm sorry, Sister Wang, don't worry, I'll be back later, later..."
After saying that, Lin Yang felt a little guilty. How could she have forgotten?
She deliberately didn't say it, okay? If Sister Wang knew that she dared to stand in such a long line under the scorching sun before her injury had fully healed, she would definitely nag her to death!
And coming back so late...
Lin Yang glanced up again at the number of people in the line ahead, thinking that it would probably take until the middle of the night to get there.
Suppressing her inner grumbling, Lin Yang didn't want to talk to Sister Wang any longer. She gave a few casual replies and then hastily hung up the phone using the lame excuse of no signal.
When they looked up again, everyone looked away and continued to wait, bored out of their minds.
Her cheerful ringtone was undoubtedly a brief moment of amusement on a hot day.
Lin Yang's legs were getting weak from standing, and she wanted to sit down, but she didn't dare.
Because Director Zheng has eyes and ears everywhere, if you're not careful, even a small action can cause him to lose points in your mind, greatly reducing your chances of getting the role.
In order to get the lead role in "Dynasty", she had to endure it!
...
Time flies, the sun has sunk considerably, and its afterglow slowly spreads across the world.
After countless rounds of interviews, it was finally Lin Yang's turn to enter for the audition.
After an afternoon of intense sun exposure, her makeup was ruined by sweat. Just a few minutes ago, she went to the bathroom to wash off the remaining makeup, revealing her bare and authentic face.
Fortunately, she has a good natural complexion, so there isn't much difference between wearing makeup and not wearing makeup.
"Number 561, Lin Yang, right?" The person in front of him was the renowned Director Zheng. He unscrewed the bottle of mineral water, took a few sips, glanced at the documents she had submitted, and then casually looked up at her.
That casual glance left Director Zheng so amazed that he forgot to look away.
It wasn't that I was amazed by how beautiful Lin Yang was, but rather by the clothes she was wearing.
