While in Hollywood, I used Taoist magic to quell American terrorism.

Natalie Portman.

Another child star.

The female lead in "Léon: The Professional".

Moreover, she is the female lead in the most popular Western movie series, the Star Wars prequel trilogy.

In terms of fame, qualifications, and experience, he is better than her in every aspect.

Amanda initially had some confidence, but upon seeing these three people, she immediately lost all of it.

Her only support was that Cao Kun had burned a talisman for her before she left home this morning.

Cao Kun said it was a talisman for changing one's luck.

She can use her good fortune from later in life today.

But afterwards, she will inevitably experience a period of bad luck.

Amanda didn't care; as long as she could win the lead role, bad luck was no big deal.

Putting everything else aside, if she actually wins, and the news spreads that she beat Amanda Seymour, the Star Wars actress, the Golden Globe nominee, and the child star of The Grinch, her fame will skyrocket.

The benefits to her are self-evident.

"Ms. Bryce Howard, please come to Audition Room 3 for your audition."

A staff member walked over and said politely.

As Amanda watched Bryce Howard leave with the staff, she became even more uneasy and anxious.

She was already prone to anxiety, and now it's become even more severe.

Are good luck charms really effective?

Cao is so capable, he definitely wouldn't lie to me.

However, Cao also said he wasn't 100% sure and could only leave it to fate.

Amanda kept reassuring herself.

Then, I wondered with great curiosity: How will my good luck manifest itself?

She looked around and saw Scarlett quietly looking at a page of the script in her hand.

Natalie, meanwhile, was talking quietly with her agent.

The two of them showed no intention of communicating at all.

Amanda remembers that they simply greeted each other when they met.

A little while later, the staff member came again: "Ms. Scarlett John, it's your turn."

Amanda looked behind the staff and didn't see Bryce, so she must have already left.

Scarlett got up and, along with her agent who had accompanied her, followed the staff to the audition.

With fewer people around, Amanda became even more anxious and nervous.

"It's okay, Amanda. We didn't have high hopes to begin with. Let's just treat this as a learning experience and gain some valuable experience."

Amanda's agent, Wendy, said from the side.

From the very beginning, she didn't think Amanda would get the role.

I had absolutely no hope.

Just kidding. Any one of those three people over there is more suitable than Amanda. How could it possibly be Amanda's turn?

Amanda glanced at Wendy but ignored her.

"Ms. Natalie Portman, it's your turn."

Twenty minutes later, the staff came again.

Like Bryce, Scarlett John has not appeared again.

Natalie Portman and her agent stood up, about to move, but Natalie's foot got caught on the chair leg.

Natalie Portman tripped over a chair leg and fell to the ground.

This sudden turn of events left everyone in the room stunned, frozen in place for a moment.

"what……"

Natalie Porter cried out in pain, her face contorted with agony, and was unable to get up for a moment.

Startled awake by her shout, her agent quickly reached out to help her up and sit back down in her chair.

"How are you feeling?" the agent asked with concern.

"It hurts, my knee hurts so much." Natalie Porter's brows were furrowed, her face contorted in pain, making her look rather pitiful.

The agent immediately took out his phone: "I'll call an ambulance for you."

Natalie Portman's unexpected fall immediately alerted the executives of the "V for V" crew, who rushed over to check on her.

Even Warner Bros. sent an executive to visit and comfort Natalie Portman.

Amanda wanted to go over and say a few words, but she couldn't even get a word in edgewise.

More than half an hour later, the ambulance arrived and took Natalie Portman away.

Those people then dispersed.

Could it be that her fall was caused by my good luck?

As Amanda watched Natalie being taken away by medical staff, she had some guesses in her mind, but she wasn't quite sure.

"Potter is really unlucky," said his agent, Wendy. "He can't believe he fell on flat ground, and so badly at that. Knee injuries take a long time to heal; he'll probably need to rest for a month or two."

Then she looked at Amanda and said, "However, our chances are still slim. Even if Portman can no longer compete for the lead role, there are still John Xun and Howard, aren't there?"

Let's not have too high hopes now, so we won't be too discouraged if we get rejected.

Amanda nodded without saying anything.

"Ms. Amanda Seyfried, it's your turn."

The staff member responsible for calling people appeared again and called out Amanda's name.

Amanda and Wendy then stood up as well.

Amanda even glanced at her feet to make sure she wouldn't trip over the chair legs before following the staff.

More than half an hour later, the car that Amanda and Wendy were in drove left the Warner parking lot and onto the main road.

As for the audition results, it's impossible to inform them so quickly.

Agent Wendy drove, and Amanda sat in the back.

The audition just now went smoothly.

Amanda even felt that she had performed exceptionally well today, better than at any other time in her career.

She didn't know that her acting skills had improved after watching "Mean Girls".

It's all because of that lucky charm.

[Do I really think I can get the female lead role in "V for V"?]

Amanda was still somewhat hesitant and wanted to call Cao Kun to ask, but she held back.

"Bang……"

Suddenly, Amanda felt the car jolt forward and lurch forward a considerable distance before crashing into the car in front with a loud bang.

Amanda's body lurched forward instantly, but she was quickly pulled back by the seatbelt, only feeling dizzy.

Wendy, who was driving, was also a little confused. She nodded her head sharply, then looked up with a blank expression.

After a moment of stunned silence, she realized that her car had been rear-ended and then crashed into the car in front of her.

Wendy turned to Amanda and asked, "Amanda, are you alright?"

Amanda touched herself up and down: "No... I'm fine. How about you?"

"I'm fine too." Wendy was relieved, opened the car door, and went out to check on the situation.

Soon, Amanda heard her talking to someone.

Amanda was still a little confused.

【Isn't this a period of good luck for me? How could I have gotten into a car accident?】

Could it be that the talisman failed to work and the change of fortune did not materialize?

Amanda took her bag, took out her phone, and called Cao Kun, recounting what had happened that day.

"You were in a car accident?" Cao Kun asked on the phone.

Amanda: "Yes, we were rear-ended, and then we crashed into the car in front of us."

Cao Kun: "Is it serious? Are you injured?"

Amanda: "No, it shouldn't be too serious. Wendy went to check on the situation."

Cao Kun's cheerful voice rang out: "Then congratulations."

Amanda was taken aback, thinking she had misheard: "Con...congratulations to me?"

Cao Kun offered no explanation, only saying, "Just wait."

Then, he hung up the phone.

Just then, Amanda heard Wendy's cell phone ringing from the bag she had placed on the passenger seat.

Amanda rolled down the car window and called out, "Wendy, the phone."

Wendy opened the driver's door and took out her phone to answer the call.

She was stunned after hearing only a few words.
