Yi was sitting in the dressing chair.

The moment I put on that Japanese military uniform, my whole demeanor changed.

The collar was buttoned up tightly.

His little mustache was stuck under his nose.

The brim of the hat was pressed down.

The light shone down from above, casting shadows in his eye sockets.

He merely raised his eyelids slightly.

Everyone in the dressing room felt a sudden tightness in their chest.

The intern makeup artist's eyebrow pencil was still hanging in mid-air, and she didn't dare to put it down for a long time.

She had just thought Yi Zheng looked quite refreshing.

Looking at him now, the word "refreshing" has absolutely nothing to do with him!

My goodness, thank goodness this is in Hengdian!

If this guy goes into the village, won't he get beaten to death by the villagers?!

A prop guy next to him, after watching, also subconsciously took a half step back.

"Holy crap, does this guy have some kind of blood in his family?"

Another clothing assistant lowered her voice.

"Yeah, I really wanted to punch him!"

The intern makeup artist swallowed hard.

"You, look up so I can see you."

Yi Zheng raised his head.

He still didn't understand what these people were doing.

I was just dragged here by two staff members, and they changed my clothes and put on a fake beard without me even realizing it.

The waistband of his pants was too tight and made him feel a little uncomfortable.

He tugged at his belt and asked in a low voice.

"Aren't these pants a little too tight at the waist?"

It was fine when he didn't speak, but once he opened his mouth...

The dressing room is quieter now!

The prop guy covered his arm, getting goosebumps.

"Holy crap? Was he speaking Mandarin just now?"

"Right?"

"I don't know either!"

"No, this flavor is way too strong!"

Yi Zheng was stunned.

"ha?"

His shout sent chills down everyone's spines.

This...this!

Why does it taste like just seasoning?

The key to his tone was that there was an air of rude politeness about him.

While everyone was stunned.

The walkie-talkie has exploded.

Where are they?

"Why are you taking so long to put on makeup?"

"Director Kong is waiting!"

The intern makeup artist's hands trembled after hearing this.

Director Kong has been in a bad mood lately, but he can't wait.

Forget about retouching, they pushed Yi Zheng by the back and forced him to walk towards the stage.

Meanwhile, the audition room was still noisy.

Several staff members huddled in a corner, whispering amongst themselves.

"Director Kong is really confused this time."

"Let extras audition for the second male lead? If word gets out, the investors will be furious!"

"Team Leader Qin is in a bad situation too. He came with a limp and ended up being drafted by Director Kong. I don't think he can hold onto his position as team leader any longer."

"Do you think he can recite his lines?"

"Nonsense! Even those with formal training can't pronounce their lines properly, and he's just a bunch of actors? Ha!"

"Yeah, this guy probably couldn't even play a dead body properly."

Listening to the discussions around him, Captain Qin stood next to Kong Sheng, sweat trickling down his neck and into his collar.

It’s over.

It's completely over.

If Yi Zheng were to go up there and embarrass himself, Director Kong would definitely hold him accountable.

Are they going to cast an extra as the second male lead?

Isn't this causing a huge mess?!

Team Leader Qin became increasingly panicked and moved closer to Kong Sheng.

"Director Kong, how about we call it quits?"

"He was just an extra."

Kong Sheng didn't speak, but simply opened the script and looked at the lyrics.

Having worked as a director for so many years, I can say I've seen countless people.

He was quite confident in his judgment of people.

Not far away, Li Sisi stood next to the camera.

She was also looking forward to it.

Because he was the only one who had ever felt Yi Zheng's aura.

The live stream chat was flooded with comments.

[I've been waiting forever, where is everyone?]

[I guess they're too scared to come out.]

[Director Kong was really pushed to his limit to cast an extra as the second male lead.]

Isn't this making a joke out of war films?

If he can act well, I'll wash my hair while doing a handstand.

Even pretty boys can't play Japanese soldiers, let alone extras.

On the other side, the three actors from the Central Academy of Drama who had just been booed off the stage hadn't left either.

They stood outside the shed, their faces increasingly grim.

The leader stared at the audition stage, feeling increasingly frustrated.

"Director Kong called us pretty boys."

"Isn't that extra a pretty boy too?"

"yes."

"Just wait and see."

"The moment you read the lines, the foundation is revealed."

"An extra is just an extra."

"Some things you can't learn by playing a few hundred games."

"Yeah, if even an extra can play the second male lead? Does that mean we can just play the commander?"

The three of them laughed.

The laughter wasn't loud, but everyone around heard it.

Team Leader Qin heard it too.

He panicked even more.

He now only hopes that Yizheng will stop walking with his feet turned out the wrong way!

Just then, the assistant director's voice came from outside.

"Excuse me."

"The person has arrived."

The chaotic noise inside the shed gradually subsided.

All eyes turned to the entrance.

Yi Zheng walked in through the passage with his head down.

Military boots stepped on the wooden planks.

One at a time.

It didn't make a sound.

But it made people feel uneasy.

He hadn't even raised his face yet.

The light first fell on the brim of the hat.

His gray-green military uniform covered his not-so-strong frame, but he was not at all thin.

Instead, it has a cold and oppressive feel.

Not urgent.

Don't panic.

It just appeared slowly like that.

The group of people there were laughing just a moment ago.

Halfway through my laugh, my lips froze.

"this……"

"he……"

"What happened?"

The situation was even more outrageous with the staff.

"I'll go."

"Who is this?"

"That Eighth Route Army soldier from earlier?"

"You know, I'm a little scared."

The cameraman was just casually carrying the equipment.

The moment the camera panned to Yi Zheng, his arm trembled involuntarily.

His professional habits told him so.

This screen must not be shaken.

Li Sisi was also stunned.

She finally realized where the feeling in the corridor had come from.

That aura I just felt definitely belonged to this guy!

This scene caused even the live stream chat to suddenly quiet down for a moment.

Holy crap?!

This seems to make sense.

For some reason, I feel like punching him.

Isn't this better than those three from before?

[Don't rush, he hasn't spoken yet.]

[Whether she speaks or not, I'm impressed; her charisma is incredible.]

Kong Sheng sat behind the monitor, leaning slightly forward.

His eyes finally lit up.

Having worked in this industry for so many years, I've seen too many actors.

Some people rely on makeup.

Some people rely on acting.

Some people, however, can make the camera focus just by standing there!

This extra in front of me, at least for this moment, has something to offer!

Team Leader Qin's hand, which was wiping sweat, froze in mid-air.

He couldn't believe his eyes.

The guy in front of me, dressed in military uniform, looks like he just finished massacring a village.

Is it Yi Zheng?

Yi Zheng, the one who wandered around Hengdian and questioned his existence?

Yi Zheng walked to the center of the audition stage.

He frowned as he looked at the reactions of the audience.

My grass?

Is the system really going to turn me into a Japanese soldier?

What happened to the promise of a big gift package after performing 800 shows?

Why did they send me Japanese soldiers instead?!

System, you're a real dog!

At this moment, the assistant director also just realized what was happening and hurriedly ran up to hand over the script.

Yi Zheng flipped through the script.

There aren't many words.

Moreover, to accommodate him, he wasn't given any real island-language lines.

They simply picked a few lines from the Mandarin dialogue and had them read them out in a Japanese accent.

Heaven and earth were dark and yellow, the universe was vast and boundless.

Just as Yi was reading the lines, the director in the audience also spoke up.

Do you speak the island language?

"I know a little."

Kong Sheng stared at him and nodded.

"Yes, use the island language if you know it, otherwise use Mandarin."

"It's okay if I mispronounce it; I'm after the feeling."

"Okay, let's begin."
