Not to mention Jiang Lingxi and Tong Yue, even the somewhat nervous Lu Zhengzheng could see the disdain in Sheman and Lin Xuefei's eyes.
Tong Yue was somewhat comforted by the thought of having an alternative role, and Jiang Lingxi just took a sip of water.
No need to explain, the end result will speak for itself.
As nine o'clock approached, there was a little more commotion in the hall.
Firstly, it was because the audition was about to begin, and secondly, it was because of the heavyweights who had just arrived.
When Xu Qingmei showed up, even though she was only wearing a low-key ink-colored dress and her hair was only held up with a green sandalwood hairpin, she still attracted the attention of most people present.
Even She Man stood up and looked at the calm, elegant and powerful figure not far away, hiding fear deep in her eyes.
However, before the people who thought they were familiar came forward to say hello, a staff member with a name tag hurriedly walked out of the infield and said, "Teacher Xu, Director Wei, please go to the infield to rest."
Everyone could only watch helplessly as Xu Qingmei followed the staff into the infield in advance. Such special treatment made many people silently blush.
Sheman sat down again and looked at Jiang Lingxi, who was hesitant to speak.
Director Wei thinks Xu Qingmei so highly, it is probably a certainty that she will get the leading female role.
With so many actors present, Jiang Lingxi was probably the only one who dared to audition for the female lead.
She can only say that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.
Just as she was sighing, she heard Lin Xuefei say: "I heard that many people on the Internet called Teacher Xu Qinghuang. I just showed up and it really shocked the whole audience. I have such a strong aura!"
Although she knew that Lin Xuefei's words were mainly intended to ridicule Jiang Lingxi for being so ambitious, such a high evaluation still made her laugh a little, and she could only barely curl her lips.
After Lin Xuefei finished speaking, she looked at Jiang Lingxi, but saw that the other party didn't even raise her eyebrows, as if he hadn't heard what she just said at all, and she couldn't help but feel a little uninterested.
He simply lowered his head and continued to read the information about Princess Jin'an on his phone.
Jiang Lingxi was looking for death, but she thought she could succeed in the audition in one fell swoop.
She couldn't help but get a little excited at the thought of being able to act with Xu Qingmei and become sisters in the play.
Jiang Lingxi took out her vibrating phone and saw that the message was from Tong Yue and couldn't help but look up at her.
Tong Yue pointed to the phone and asked her to read the message.
Tong Yue: "How about forget it? It seems that Xu Qingmei has already been chosen as the female lead. It's probably useless for you to audition again."
Jiang Lingxi also typed a reply: "As long as the crew doesn't make it clear that the female lead is Xu Qingmei, then I still have a chance."
When Xu Qingmei came in before, everyone looked over, and she naturally looked over as well.
The opponent's aura is indeed very strong, and it can be said that he is the most oppressive among so many people present.
Even so, she wouldn't let it go.
Tong Yue looked at the message Jiang Lingxi sent back to her and couldn't help biting her nails.
Why didn't I know this girl was so stubborn before?
After thinking for a while, he typed: "Otherwise, you can audition Wei Fuying first. If Director Wei is satisfied, you can then say that you want to try out for the lead female role. We have to secure at least one."
She thought that if she couldn't get the role of Wei Fuying, then she would just quit thinking about it and get cast without even trying.
After reading the message, Jiang Lingxi put on her phone and nodded invisibly towards Tong Yue.
Tong Yue breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but clasping her hands together. She must get a role so that she wouldn't waste so many days of preparation!
After a while, as a bell rang, everyone was shocked.
Come nine o'clock, the audition begins!
The actor wearing the No. 1 number plate took a deep breath and stood up, and slowly walked into the newly opened infield door under the watch of others in the field.
As the door slammed shut again, the hall remained quiet for a moment before low voices rang out.
"It's not good to be the first one to audition. It's too stressful."
"Guess how long the person just now will stay in there?"
"I went to the director's set for a screen test before. I remember that the shortest one came out in less than three minutes. It usually takes about ten minutes."
"Then I'll blindly guess for eight minutes."
Not long after, the infield door opened again, and many people subconsciously glanced at the time displayed on their mobile phones.
Six and a half minutes.
Then he looked at the face of the girl who just walked out, but he saw neither excitement nor frustration, but instead saw a somewhat complicated meaning.
Immediately afterwards, two people who must be the agent and assistant hurriedly greeted him, and left without asking any questions.
Sheman looked away, "Why does it feel a little weird? Did she succeed or not?"
Lin Xuefei was equally unsure, frowning and shaking her head, "I didn't see it either."
Jiang Lingxi watched No. 2 enter the venue, and then looked at the number plate No. 56 on her body. She felt that at this speed, it would probably be afternoon when it was her turn.
So he asked out of curiosity: "Does this place take care of food at noon?"
Sheman: "..."
Lin Xuefei: "..."
Is your focus a bit wrong?
*
Time passed by, and as more and more people came in to audition, some who were still waiting in line outside could no longer hold back, "How are the auditions going on inside?"
Each one of them had a secretive expression when they came out. I was almost wondering if they were there!
The man who was pulled away smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Director Wei said, keep it secret." After saying that, he sighed, "Don't think too much, just be prepared!"
It's better not to ask. After hearing this answer, I felt even more uneasy.
It's almost noon, and finally it's No. 36's turn.
Sheman took a deep breath and stood up.
Lin Xuefei clenched her fists and said, "Sister Man, come on, I wish you success!"
She Man smiled and said, "I'd like to lend you some good words."
After she left, there was no one at the table to ease the atmosphere. Lin Xuefei and Jiang Lingxi looked at each other in silence for a moment, then simply got up and left, looking for an actor they knew well to inquire about the news.
Lu Zhengzheng let out a sigh of relief as soon as she left, "But even though she's gone, she doesn't even know how much she hates her."
I hate people who speak in a roundabout way and are sarcastic.
If Jiang Xiyu was the most annoying person before, then Lin Xuefei can now be ranked second.
Jiang Lingxi tapped her forehead with her finger, "There are many people with many eyes, so you have to think carefully before speaking."
Lu Zhengzheng covered her head and nodded obediently.
Seeing that Jiang Lingxi had taught her a lesson, Tong Yue said no more, "She Man should be fine."
If even the best actress goes to the audition and still can't get a third female lead, then the director's requirements are not as high as usual.
She Man went in for more than ten minutes before coming out. Seeing this, Tong Yue felt even more confident.
Lin Xuefei saw Sheman come out and come back under the white eyes of Lu Zhengzheng who quietly let go. Her face said that she wanted to ask but she didn't dare to ask.
On the contrary, Sheman smiled openly and said, "I can only say that this audition is indeed very rigorous, and I can't say anything else. I will go back and wait for the notification. Come on, you two."
After saying that, he took his agent and assistant with him and left the hall with a smile.
Lin Xuefei looked at She Man's back and said, "It seems that Sister Man is quite confident."
Jiang Lingxi stood aside and pretended not to hear. She turned to Tong Yue and said, "It's almost half past twelve. It seems like there's no food here. Why don't you ask Zhengzheng to ask if we can go out to have a meal before coming back?"
She was afraid that she would not be allowed in at the door when she came back.
Lin Xuefei: "..."
A loser? Even though you are so nervous, you can still think about eating!
