The sick beauty became popular after she brought her ex to the show

(Double update, there is one chapter ahead)

His assistant had something to do, and Su Ye couldn't just stay in the lounge and do nothing.

But after hearing Anle's words, he paused for a moment and took another look at the man next to Shen Meng.
Shu Ling's agent? Shu Ling also came to interview for this role?
Su Ye didn't feel that surprised. Shu Ling was a popular idol and had starred in many idol dramas. With Ji Ru's golden signboard here, it was impossible not to come.

Shen Meng held the cell phone in her hand, and the little girl's cute round face turned red with anger.
The other artists in the lounge looked at each other. Su Ye walked over and saw that his resume was still in Shen Meng's bag, and it seemed that he had not handed it in yet.

Su Ye put a hand on Shen Meng's shoulder, "Xiao Meng, what's wrong?"

Shen Meng hadn't said the next sentence yet, but when he heard Su Ye's voice, he calmed down his anger and said, "It's okay, Brother Su Ye, just wait in the lounge."

There are many trivial disputes in the entertainment industry, and these are things that assistants should worry about. Shen Meng doesn't want to let the main person Su Ye get involved, which would be embarrassing.

Su Ye did not move his hand off Shen Meng's shoulder, but patted it gently.
He looked at the man in front of him, "Hello, is there any misunderstanding between you and my assistant?"

Shen Meng was still young after all. After hearing this, she glared at him fiercely and explained to Su Ye in a low voice, "I just went to hand in my resume, but Manager Huang pushed it down and pushed my audition time very late."

There are already many artists in this audition, and the later the time is pushed, the thinner the impression left on the judges.

If an artist who has impressed the judges has appeared before, the attention paid to the artists who come later will be greatly reduced. In addition, the selection process is also very energy-consuming and mentally demanding. It can be said that the later you are in the list, the more dangerous it is.

Su Ye naturally understood this truth.
He frowned slightly.

"Oh, you are Su Ye?" The man in front of him suddenly spoke with a smile on his face, but his eyes were clearly looking him up and down.

Not to mention that the eye contact is impolite, the way of asking the question alone is actually somewhat insulting.

Shen Meng was already furious, and when she heard this she became even angrier and her fingers started to crack. But because Su Ye was with her, she held back her temper and didn't say anything.

Anle and several artists in the lounge were looking in, and many artists in the lounges further inside were also watching the fun quietly.

"Wow, they are Su Ye and Shu Ling's agents. They are old rivals."
"Brother Huang is such a kind person, but he didn't show any good face when he saw Su Ye."
"Of course. Their own artist joined the group to fill in the position, but was then teased away for a few months and disbanded. The culprit is right in front of them. Who can stand it?"
"Shu Ling is also going to audition for this role? Then won't we all be runners-up?"
"Just now my assistant said that he saw Huang Ge greeting the teachers of the crew and they seemed to be chatting happily."

Huang Wuji acted as if he had not heard these rumors and spoke again in the tone of a senior.

"Although it's just an audition, I was able to learn a lot of things that can only be experienced on the spot, which will come in handy if I have the opportunity to act in the future. Come on, Teacher Su Ye."

An Le in the lounge next to him whispered, "It sounds like he is certain that Teacher Su will not make it."
The artist next to him curled his lips and said, "Su Ye doesn't have much acting experience, so it's probably difficult."

Su Ye touched the excited Shen Meng and smiled at Huang Wuji, "Thank you for your advice."

In his heart, Su Ye didn't actually think that there was anything wrong with what Huang Wuji said. He just became slightly popular thanks to variety shows, and he had basically no core competitiveness in acting.

He himself thought that he had no hope, and originally came here with the idea of ​​learning and reassuring Su Lan. Huang Wuji's words, which implied provocation, did not cause any fluctuations in his emotions.

But what he thinks is his business, but that doesn't mean he can allow others to bully his assistant.

Su Ye smiled softly, her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed and curved, letting a little light shine in, her amber eyes revealing a smile that could not reach the bottom of her eyes.

He looked at Huang Wuji and said, "I did learn a lot, for example, an artist's agent can also suppress other people's resumes in private. It is really difficult to encounter such a thing except on the spot."

The chattering sounds around suddenly quieted down.

The smile on Huang Wuji's face faded. Looking at Su Ye's eyes that did not smile at all, he was speechless for a while.
It had been a long time since he had been treated so bluntly and sarcastically in person by someone.

Su Ye is tall, while Huang Wuji is much shorter. When he stands in front of Su Ye, he has to raise his head to meet Su Ye's gaze, and his aura suddenly becomes shorter.

To be fair, Su Ye's face is really beautiful.
When such a person looks at others coldly, that beauty turns into a sharp chill.

Huang Wuji's lips moved, but he was choking and unable to make a sound, as if he had high blood pressure.

".puff."
Anle in the lounge next to him couldn't help laughing out loud, then quickly shrank back inside, lowered his head and pretended nothing had happened.

So funny hahahaha!
This is the first time I saw Agent Huang being speechless after being confronted in person.

Su Ye didn't look at Huang Wuji for long. After he finished speaking, he nodded as if to say hello and took Shen Meng to the venue where resumes were to be submitted.

After Su Ye's figure disappeared, Huang Wuji stood there for a while and looked back.

Su Ye's former agency, Xingli, where Shu Ling currently works, is definitely a leader in the industry, and Shu Ling is one of the new generation of idols that Xingli has been promoting recently. No one wants to go against Huang Wuji.

The artists who were originally watching the excitement at the door immediately looked away and did not speak again until Huang Wuji left.

"That's awesome, Su Ye!"
"This is the first time I've seen someone confront Huang from Xingli head-on."
"Warrior, I have actually been fed up with Xingli's people being overbearing for a long time."
"Teacher Su looks gentle, but I didn't expect she's actually quite tough!"
"Wow. Teacher Su, yyds!"

At the entrance of the venue, Shen Meng bowed his head and admitted his mistake, "I'm sorry, brother, it's all because I was too impulsive. If I could be more tactful."

It is not a good thing to cause conflict before the audition, so avoid it if possible.

Su Ye patted her shoulder again, "Don't blame you, anyone would be angry."

Shen Meng nodded, knowing that this kind of thing could not be avoided. If you just tolerate it, others will think you are easy to bully and more likely to look down on you.

"But I was so handsome just now! That Huang brother has always relied on Xingli's support to bully people from other small companies. Everyone dares to be angry but not to say anything. I am still the best!"
That’s right, Su Ye is so beautiful, brave, decisive, unpretentious, and fearless of power——

Shen Meng heard Su Ye's voice coming from beside him.
"Ah? Is that so?"

Su Ye's face showed a hint of surprise and slight embarrassment, which blended into a smile that was soft and gentle.
"I don't know. It's my first time meeting him and I don't know him very well."

Shen Meng's heart, which had just melted halfway, froze.
That's fine.

"Let's go and submit the form." Shen Meng pulled out a thin transparent folder.

After the staff member in charge of sorting out the resume confirmed it, he handed the tag to Shen Meng, "Teacher Su Zhi, right——"

Su Ye frowned and interrupted him, which was rare. "Su Ye, two drops of water, Ye."

The staff member was stunned for a moment and immediately apologized.

Shen Meng was a little surprised. Su Ye had a gentle personality, and even when she met Huang Wuji just now, she didn't show such disgust.

Shen Meng secretly glanced at Su Ye.
Su Ye's brows were furrowed, but soon relaxed and returned to normal.

Shen Meng quietly made a note of it in her heart.
Brother Su Ye seems to dislike being called by the wrong name, especially "Su Zhi".

Shen Meng and Su Ye walked back, "As expected of Teacher Ji Ru's group, they are so generous that they have to do makeup and hair for the audition."
It’s not so difficult to make modern dramas, but for ancient dramas it would take a long time just to make the wigs, not to mention there are so many people on the scene.

The first round is quite ordinary. After introducing yourself, let the judges take a general look at your image. Generally, if your image is in line with expectations and you are popular, you will be directly given a first round.

The judges' reactions were mostly bland, and they didn't involve any overly sharp questions. After the first round, Su Ye went to line up with the makeup artist and met An Le on the way.

"Ah, Teacher Su also passed!"
Anle had obviously passed the audition, earlier than Suye. Her hair and makeup were already done, so she didn't need to change her clothes. She just needed to put on an outer coat during the audition.

Su Ye nodded and found that although one side looked relatively ordinary, a large number of people were screened out and the number of people in the lounge was greatly reduced.

Anle happened to not meet anyone else to talk to, so he sat next to Su Ye and chatted.
"I just took a look around, and I can't tell what kind of characters the crew prefers. On the one hand, there are those with very heroic looks, and on the other hand, there are artists with more gentle styles."

Anle, who was sitting next to him, also had a cute baby face, which was very different from Su Ye.

Su Ye smiled and responded, "It's true that I can't tell what the appearance standard is."

While the two were talking, a burst of laughter suddenly came from the relatively quiet side of the meeting room.
Su Ye and An Le looked over.

Huang Wuji, whom I had just met, came in with his resume, shook hands with the judges with a smile on his face, and seemed to exchange a few words of greeting.
A familiar figure was standing next to him. It was Shu Ling.

Anle glanced at Su Ye secretly, and didn't see any special expression on Su Ye's face, so he exclaimed in his heart that he was awesome.
Teacher Su never gets angry? She has such a good temper.

After the people inside exchanged greetings, Huang Wuji followed Shu Ling directly through the passage.

An Le curled his lips quietly, "As expected of Xing Li, he passed it directly without asking any more questions."
Shu Ling was walking towards the vacant dressing room when she suddenly saw Su Ye sitting in the waiting area. She turned her eyes away and just looked away.

"On the 14th, Teacher Su Ye can come and do the styling—"

Anle pushed Su Ye and said, "Teacher Su, it's your turn."

Su Ye withdrew his dazed eyes from looking at the camphor tree branches outside the window, said hello and went into the dressing room.

The stylist's eyes lit up immediately when she saw Su Ye, "Hello, Teacher Su Ye, you are even more beautiful in person than you look on the variety show!"
"Thank you." Su Ye sat down and the stylist helped him with his hairstyle with skillful movements.

"Teacher Su Ye has such beautiful hair, and it happens to be long hair too. If her character wasn't black-haired, she could have gone on stage right away!"
Su Ye listened with a smile and responded from time to time.

In the second interview venue for the formal audition, several audition judges were sitting behind a long row of tables in the innermost row.

The judges for the second round were more powerful. At a glance, they were basically famous screenwriters or producers, one assistant director, and three representatives of investors.

At the scene, an artist was trying out a scene.

Several judges behind the long table started to communicate with each other.
"Her manners are excellent. I see she debuted as a catwalk model. No wonder."
Screenwriter Song shook his head, "The eyesight is a little bit off, a little scattered."

After reaching a consensus, the assistant director sitting in the middle spoke.
"Thank you for your hard work. The crew will inform you of the audition results within a week."

The artist bowed and exited.

Song editor sighed and put the artist's resume in the rejected pile. "Hey, do you have any favorites?"

Assistant Director Li shook his head and said, "There are a few who look like they would be a good match, but their acting skills aren't that good. It's difficult."

During the short break, the judges drank some water, their faces showing tired expressions.

Editor Song looked to the far left again, "Director Ji, do you have any favorite artists at the moment?"
Assistant Director Li smiled and said, "Director Ji seems to be in a good mood today. Did he see someone he likes?"

On the far right, a middle-aged woman with elegant clothes, good temperament and charming appearance smiled.
"That's not the case. We have already agreed on the male lead, so we have settled the matter."

After Ji Ru finished speaking, she looked at the three investors' representatives next to her.
"What do the bosses think?"

Two of the three investor representatives expressed some opinions.
The last one was wearing a baseball cap, with half of his face hidden in the shadows, making it difficult to see his expression. He leaned back in his chair and didn't speak or react.

Editor Song tapped his shoulder and said, "But for the role of Song Chengzhi, does Director Ji have any specific ideas? Mainly because her appearance is not very clear, it is quite difficult to choose."

Ji Ru held her chin with both hands. "This character has a huge contrast between his inner and outer self. Compared to the appearance, it is more important to show that he is fragile and stubborn. Of course, the better his looks are, the better." After all, she set Song Chengzhi to be a beautiful man with a bit of flirtatiousness.

Song Bian put his hand on the artist's resume again, "Then that kid is pretty good, right? He has a good figure and his acting skills are actually pretty good."

Ji Ru shook her head.
"That child's eyes are so simple, there's no sense of pulling."

She felt relieved after landing the male lead role, but the audition for the role of Song Seung-ji was very stressful.

Ji Ru has a bit of obsessive-compulsive personality. As long as it is her work, she strives to make it perfect, but she does not get too hung up on the details.

When auditioning for a role, apart from the actor's professional qualities and appearance, the first thing she focuses on is the compatibility between the actor and the role.

In Ji Ru's past works, she often used newcomers who had no experience but were very suitable for the role, and the final results were very satisfactory.
Therefore, her audition is an opportunity that many young artists who have not yet made their mark dream of. "Hiss" Ji Ru took a deep breath.

Today's second interview was coming to an end, and she was a little bit disheartened.

The character of Song Chengzhi has a strong sense of inner torment. He is the kind of person whose true thoughts cannot be revealed until the last moment. He is a crazy and evil person who hides all his emotions beneath the surface, making him very difficult to interpret.

As for the children who came today, I don’t know whether to say that they are too young or their acting skills are not up to that level. 60% of their performance was only of the beauty of Song Chengzhi’s character’s appearance, which was superficial; 30% of their performance was a bit too exaggerated and awkward in their inner drama; and 10% directly deviated from the setting and turned Song Chengzhi into a tragic character who is carrying a heavy burden.

Of course, Song Chengzhi does have a tragic setting, but the character herself does not think of herself as tragic. On the contrary, she enjoys it.
Otherwise it would be a crazy batch.

Assistant Director Li laughed, "It looks like Director Ji's scene won't start shooting as planned."

Everyone in the industry knew that Ji Ru would often postpone the show indefinitely in order to find the right actor. Fortunately, her fame and talent were there, so it became a good story.

"Next one." Ji Ru gestured to the assistant at the door.

"No. 11, Xingli Entertainment, Shu Ling."

Two of the three people from the investment side sat up a little straighter.

Song Bian turned his head and spoke to Ji Ru, "This actor is a new actor who is quite popular in the market recently. He is quite popular with the audience and has performed in many ancient puppet dramas. He is quite experienced and is also liked by investors. He can make money."

Ji Ru nodded, her expression not changing much.

"Hello, teachers. I am Shu Ling."
After Shu Ling came in, she bowed and briefly introduced herself.

I raised my head and saw editor Song and assistant director Li looking over at me.

Shu Ling's appearance is excellent, and her facial features are delicate, but her eyes are slightly droopy, which makes her look very clean. She is a very popular white moonlight beauty recently.

Assistant Director Li nodded, "Please start."

Shu Ling was auditioning for a scene when the adult Song Seung-ji ascends the throne. It had a lot of lines, which had already been agreed upon with her agent in advance.

It is easier to create atmosphere in a play with many lines, and it is also more conducive to driving other people's emotions.
Plays with few lines are very demanding on acting skills, and if one line is wrong the whole thing will fail.

The judges watched quietly to the end.

"From today on."
Shu Ling got into the role quickly, her eyes immediately turned cold, and wearing a loose long robe with wide sleeves, she walked step by step to the center of the venue, sweeping her sharp eyes over everyone present.

".This throne——"

Shu Ling walked to a chair in the middle and paused.
He lifted the hem of his skirt with one hand, sat down steadily, raised his head slightly, and recited his lines word by word, with no emotion in his voice.

"I'll come and sit down."

Shu Ling exhaled quietly, her face returning to its normal smile, and she stood up and bowed.

Two of the three investor representatives nearby applauded, while the other remained seated without moving.

Editor Song and Assistant Director Li looked at each other.

Assistant Director Li handed over Shu Ling's resume. "The acting is acceptable. Experienced people are indeed more experienced than the less experienced ones."
Editor Song also nodded. "The appearance is not bad. The only problem is that the eyes are a little too sharp. There is a sense of intimidation, but it is a little too much."

He tilted his head to look at Ji Ru beside him, "What do you think, Director Ji?"

Ji Ru flipped through it roughly.

The venue was very large, and Shu Ling could not hear the whispers of the three judges. She could only see Ji Ru flipping through his resume.

Shu Ling immediately felt at ease.
The assistant at the door talked to Brother Huang and said that Director Ji had not yet looked through anyone's resume.

Ji Ru's voice came, "Shu Ling, right? You are very skilled in acting and you look good too."

Shu Ling was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Director."

Assistant Director Li raised his eyebrows. This was the first time Director Ji praised someone today. Did this mean he was very satisfied?
Song Bian beside him shook his head and motioned for him to continue listening.

"——But it's too practiced, a little too templated."

Ji Ru put Shu Ling's resume aside, looking a little regretful.

"I can name at least four or five classic characters that could fit your performance, but Song Seung-ji is not one of them."

Song Bian nodded slightly.

This is Shu Ling’s biggest shortcoming, and it is also the shortcoming of many actors who started out as idols. Their roles are too single and templated, and they all follow the “one trick to rule them all” approach.
In idol dramas, this approach works well for the audience, but not so well for directors.

Ji Ru herself has always been immersed in the film industry. She doesn't know much about the actors in the film and television industry, nor does she know the backgrounds of the artists. Therefore, she treats all artists similarly and fairly.

Shu Ling's expression was a little depressed, but she still listened where she was.
Getting a few comments from Ji Ru does say something, because in the previous audition, Ji Ru hardly spoke a word from beginning to end.

Ji Ru rubbed her temples, feeling a little tired. She thought she could interview a few more people and call it a day.
Otherwise you will lower your standards due to disappointment.

With Shu Ling's resume in hand, she wasn't sure where to put it.

Ji Ru herself was not very satisfied, but compared with the previous ones, Shu Ling was considered okay. In addition, two of the three investors liked her quite a bit, so this also had to be taken into consideration.

She thought for a moment and asked, "What do you think was the psychological activity of Song Chengzhi when he ascended the throne?"

Shu Ling felt a little excited again.
Generally speaking, the director will not ask this kind of question unless he needs to start working with the actors.

"Thank you for the question, Director Ji. Song Chengzhi was bullied growing up, and his personality became a little twisted as he grew up. I think when he ascends to the throne, he will have some feelings of revenge."

Ji Ru asked again, "So what do you think, is the character of Song Chengzhi ruthless or affectionate?"

Shu Ling answered decisively, "He is ruthless and extremely obsessed with his goals."

Upon hearing this, editor Song and assistant director Li sighed quietly in their hearts.

Ji Ru nodded, "Okay, thank you, I will let you know the audition result within a week."

Shu Ling breathed a sigh of relief, bowed and left.
Ji Ru put the resume in her hand into the pile that was rejected.

Song editor sighed: "What a pity, I didn't fully understand the role, otherwise I could have given it a try."

Ji Ru took a sip of water to moisten her throat. "This kid's acting is pretty good. As long as he can break through the difficulty of being stereotyped, he will be able to reach a higher level. I can't say he's bad, but he just doesn't quite fit in with the role of Song Chengzhi."

A representative of the investment company came over and said a few words to Deputy Director Li.

After listening to this, Assistant Director Li turned around and spoke to Ji Ru, "The investors want Director Ji to reconsider. Shu Ling has an audience base, and the investors value this more."

Ji Ru was a flexible person, so she didn't insist on having the final say. "Okay, let's leave it alone for now."
Anyway, choose the best one. If there is really no suitable person, you can see if you can enlighten Shu Ling.

After a few more artists passed by, the judges present began to lose interest.

"No. 14, Yaotian Media, Su Ye."

This is also an artist who has been quite popular recently, and investors have become more interested.

The representative of the third company, who had been sitting there without saying anything, finally moved. He put down his lazily crossed legs and leaned forward slightly against the back of the chair.

Ji Ru saw it and laughed, "It seems that the bosses are also very interested in this person."

Assistant Director Li glanced at the resume and said, "Oh, why does the name sound so familiar? My daughter used to like him, but I haven't heard of him for a long time."

Song Bian glanced at it and paused, "This appearance is really good."

Ji Ru sat in her original position without much reaction.
She has heard this sentence at least dozens of times today. To be honest, none of the artists who can submit their resumes here have bad looks.

The assistant at the door opened it, footsteps approached, and a gentle, ethereal voice sounded.

"Hello, judges. My name is Su Ye, and I am an artist under Yaotian Media."

Ji Ru raised her eyes and saw Su Ye bowing. Her long black hair fell like a waterfall, brushing against the crimson robe of the bowing person.

Su Ye looked up.

Her hair is as black as ink and her skin is as white as snow. The visual contrast is extremely strong, which is very different from Su Ye's usual light and soft impression. She even looks a little gorgeous and gaudy.

The dark black hair color brought out Su Ye's stunning beauty that was usually hidden under her soft and confused temperament. After stripping off the layers of deceptive coverings, it was fully displayed in front of everyone.

Su Ye is very handsome, which is a common fact known to everyone who has seen him.

But perhaps because people were used to Su Ye's usual plain clothes, everyone gradually overlooked the essence of her beauty, a beauty that was sharp, extremely eye-catching, cold and stunning.

Su Ye's makeup was not complicated, as the stylist felt that his facial features were already good enough and only deepened his contours a little.
The outline of the corners of her soft and slightly raised eyes was slightly elongated, and her gaze moved lightly, with a seductive look, like a hook, echoing the red mole at the end of her eyebrow, and it was all natural.

The most rare thing is that this does not make him look feminine, but only enhances his own slender and unique beauty.

Song Bian was taking advantage of the moment to admire it when suddenly a hand waved in front of him.

He came back to his senses and saw Ji Ru's head slightly tilted towards him, but her eyes were still looking at Su Ye, and her voice was low.
"Quick, give me your resume."

Assistant Director Li held back his laughter and handed it over to Ji Ru, who looked down.

This may be the cleanest resume among all the artists auditioning today.
Apart from nearly a year of experience in a boy band, there is no personal work.

"."
Ji Ru closed it and put it aside.

This is not popular? Is the market so scary now?

Assistant Director Li said, "Hello, Xiao Su, which scene did you choose?"

Just as Su Ye was about to speak, he suddenly heard the woman on the far left speak.

Ji Ru was very satisfied with Su Ye's appearance.

Thin, tall, pretty but not feminine. Before Su Ye appeared, she had no clear idea of ​​Song Chengzhi's appearance.
After Su Ye appeared, she suddenly felt that Song Chengzhi could be like this.

The ethereal and illusory beauty of fragmentation.

But appearance is appearance, the most important thing is whether you can interpret the role in the end.

Ji Ru stared at Su Ye, "Can we try the scene where Song Chengzhi ascended the throne that Xingli's artist just performed?"
