Chapter 266: You Also Like Author Feng Ci?
“Ah ah ah! My dream guy!”
“My god! If I get the role, I get to act alongside Actor Yi?”
“...”
Yi Qinghan’s status was unshakable. He didn’t even need to audition to get the role. The girls, however, still had to go through the whole process. Instead of finding this unfair, their enthusiasm actually soared.
“Okay, now we will do this by drawing numbers at random. Thirty minutes after all auditions are done, we will inform everyone of the decision.”
Qiao Qing patted Lin Xiyan’s shoulder, “Go draw a number.”
All the actresses went to draw numbers and began the audition. Lin Xiyan ended up being the last one.
After her audition, Qiao Qing asked, “How did it go?”
Lin Xiyan nodded aggressively like a chicken pecking at its food, “I think it went excellent!”
Qiao Qing chuckled.
Fu Siying also laughed out loud, “I’ve never met an idiot this idiotic. Even actress Bai has never been this arrogant. Be careful! The better you feel about yourself now, the worse you’ll feel later!”
Just then, Qiao Qing’s phone lit up.
She read the text and rubbed Lin Xiyan’s head, “I need to step out a bit. Wait here for the decision.”
Lin Xiyan nodded, “Okay!”
After Qiao Qing left, she circled around and entered the audition room from the side door.
The moment she entered, Shen Jie greeted her excitedly, “Qingqing, I must admit – you have such a unique and good judgment of people!”
Qiao Qing, “What happened?”
“That girl Lin Xiyan,” Shen Jie responded, “She surprised me so much! She seems so fragile normally, so I picked the scene where the female lead is dressed up as a man and acted dominatingly.”
“Her performance far exceeded my expectation! It’s like she was born Lan Xi!”
“I originally thought the one who would impress me the most would be actress Bai. But actress Bai’s performance was far too technical. Her emotions didn’t really come through.”
“Even if she didn’t have connections, comprehensively, Lin Xiyan’s performance was the best out of everyone here!”
Yi Qinghan walked over as well and nodded, “That young girl is truly a talent with lots of potential. Originally, because of you, I planned on helping her out no matter how bad she was.”
“But, now, I am not at all worried that she won’t do this role justice. I’m sure that after some time, she will be able to shine brightly in the entertainment industry.”
Qiao Qing felt relieved and nodded, “Show me her audition tape.”
Shen Jie nodded, “Sure. I wanted to watch it again anyway. It was truly astonishing.”
Qiao Qing sat in the director’s seat and watched Lin Xiyan’s tape. Shen Jie then said, “After Fu Siying’s audition, she started telling us how she was going to get her brother to invest if we made her the female lead. She truly thinks of her brother as a God. No matter what she does, she brings up her brother.”
Qiao Qing didn’t seem to have an opinion about this. She tapped the table lightly, “Send me a copy of Lin Xiyan, Fu Siying, and actress Bai’s audition tapes.”
Shen Jie was surprised, “Why do you need those?”
Qiao Qing said, “I have my own uses.”
“Okay.” Shen Jie sent Qiao Qing the videos and remembered something else, “Right, third young master Jun offered to invest $3B for this production. He didn’t ask for anything. He just asked me to be careful when picking the lead roles. Should I accept it or not?”
For some reason, Shen Jie thought of Qiao Qing as the person with all the power. Though he wasn’t sure what her connection to Sky Entertainment was, after their chat last time, he felt that it would be the right thing to do to run everything past her.
Qiao Qing froze. Suddenly, she remembered what Jun Yexuan once asked her back in the City of Brisk, “You also like author Feng Ci?”
