Because it is an IP adaptation of a popular novel, this audition provided the actors with the background and information of the character in advance.
Chi Ying's facial features are bright and stunning, which does not match the image of the second female lead who has low self-esteem and is fragile.
So on the day of the audition, she put a lot of thought into her makeup.
The highlights are just right, making the facial features look slimmer and three-dimensional.
The eye makeup is waterproof and smudge-proof, and the ends of my eyes are droopier than usual.
His face was paler than before, and his lips were duller.
She looked in the mirror with a different temperament.
Lost in thought, as fragile as glass.
When he smiled, his eyes were like water, soft and quiet.
Chi Ying's makeup was so realistic that even Chi Cheng frowned and pulled her clothes, "Mom, Mom, are you sick?"
He spoke urgently and worriedly, sounding like he was about to cry.
This actually made Chi Ying feel heartbroken. She held the little guy's face and told him seriously, "No, mom is just wearing makeup."
Chi Cheng looked unconvinced.
Chi Ying realized that her expression was too serious, and turned to smile brightly, with bright eyes that seemed to be shining like stars.
Chi Cheng said "Ah" with a childlike and pure voice. He opened his eyes wide and asked curiously, "What is makeup? Is it something my mother does after brushing her teeth every day?"
Chi Ying did not deny it. Chi Cheng was still young and she didn't explain to him the difference between skin care and makeup.
Chi Cheng still seemed worried. When Chi Ying was packing her things, he ran to her side again, raised his little face and said, "But Mom, you look so sad."
Chi Ying stopped what she was doing and looked at him tenderly, "Mom is not really sad. Mom is an actress. She is just pretending to be sad."
Chi Cheng shook his head, expressing disbelief. His big, dark eyes were filled with worry.
Chi Ying told him repeatedly, "What you saw today is all fake." Chi Cheng nodded doubtfully.
After Chi Ying sent the little guy to kindergarten, she rushed to the audition location.
Qi Hongcheng was waiting for her at the stairs.
Chi Ying is calm and calm, and her steps are elegant. She is like a gentle wind that heals people, but makes Qi Hongcheng suffer the most.
Although she was still young, her aura was not inferior to that of a popular star, which he never expected.
After a few words of greeting, Qi Hongcheng took Chi Ying to the audition room, where there were many judges and teachers.
Chi Ying bowed and handed them her resume.
The person in the photo is so beautiful that she is flamboyant and bone-crushing, which is completely inappropriate for a female lead.
But when Qi Hongcheng raised his head and looked at her in front of him, he couldn't help but sigh.
For Chi Ying with beautiful facial features, exquisite makeup can change her temperament.
Chi Ying quickly entered the state.
If Qi Hongcheng had any luck before this, all of them disappeared at this moment.
The woman was pale and thin, her lowered eyes were as full as water, and she seemed to be shedding tears.
Her eyes were light red, and she was about to cry, and her emotions were moving.
She lost the calmness and elegance she had shown when introducing herself a moment ago. As a character, she looked cowardly and helpless in every move she made.
The script progressed, and the tears in my eyes burst out of my eyes almost instantly and rolled down.
Thrilling.
There were exclamations from all four seats.
Qi Hongcheng had mixed feelings.
Staring at the pale and haggard Chi Ying in the audition room, Lu Jingyan's heart ached as if hit by a boulder.
His lips lost blood in an instant, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
It was exactly the same as his nightmare last night.
Lu Jingyan has always been in good health and never neglects his fitness career no matter how busy he is at work. His face turned dark blue for a moment, and his thin lips were pursed tightly. Jiang Chong was at a loss for a moment, and it took him a while to stammer out: "Mr. Lu, are you okay?"
Lu Jingyan's voice was hoarse, "It's okay."
After sending Chi Ying away, Qi Hongcheng sat slumped in the office.
With his mind free, Lu Jingyan's call came.
"President Lu" Qi Hongcheng broke into cold sweat, "The audition is over and we are making the final evaluation."
He was indeed still hesitating.
But the leverage in his heart was already tilted towards Chi Ying.
Lu Jingyan's voice was very low: "You are hesitating"
Qi Hongcheng was silent and did not dare to speak out.
"You don't have to worry about my face." Lu Jingyan's tone was cold and distant, "As a director, you should know better than me. You need to choose the most suitable actor."
Qi Hongcheng had a lot of thoughts.
Lu Jingyan is a capitalist.
Rarely will he act emotionally, and he will be reluctant to give up.
From the beginning to the end, it was impossible to tell from Lu Jingyan's tone that he and Chi Ying were familiar with each other.
Qi Hongcheng thought of the phone call a few days ago. Lu Jingyan's voice was extremely cold. Firstly, he didn't need a heroine, and secondly, he didn't need special care. He didn't show the slightest hope that Chi Ying would star.
Maybe Chi Ying had an inseparable relationship with him that made him unable to refuse.
Just like him and Shu Bai
Qi Hongcheng was startled by his own thoughts.
Qi Hongcheng is not a decisive person.
The lever was tilted again.
"Mr. Lu means that if there is a more suitable candidate than Chi Ying"
Lu Jingyan said solemnly: "Investment is for profit, and the success of casting is a necessary condition for profit."
"On the other hand, do you think it is a benefit or disadvantage to encourage artists?"
A character that attracts too much attention, if the strength and position do not match, will it be achieved or destroyed
After careful consideration, Qi Hongcheng decided to give the second female lead to Chi Ying.
Her acting skills are indeed more amazing than Shu Bai's.
He will find a way to make up for Shu Bai.
Funding is also available.
Qi Hongcheng was editing the audition results email, and Liu Pei asked him to meet.
His blood immediately surged, and she still had the nerve to see him
But Qi Hongcheng was so eaten up by Liu Pei that he walked uncontrollably towards the agreed place like a puppet on strings.
He comforted himself that he could take this opportunity to ask her.
Liu Pei was dressed in cool and revealing clothes and wore strong lipstick.
Although coquettish, she is beautiful.
"You" Qi Hongcheng's chest felt tight and swollen.
Liu Pei made it up indifferently, "Shu Bai's parents passed away just yesterday."
Immediately afterwards, she sent him a photo on her phone of Shu Bai with eyes swollen from crying.
Shu Bai huddled in the corner, his eyes dull.
"Don't be sorry for her. Shu Bai has been a jade for so many years before she handed it over to you." Liu Pei said casually, "Her parents still have debts that she needs to repay. Shu Bai really has no other support. She has You don’t know how much we need this position. You haven’t given her a definite answer after so many days. You don’t want to see the scandal of an eighteenth-tier artist falling from a building, right?”
"She is also sorry for you." Qi Hongcheng's heart suddenly hurt and his fingertips trembled, "You let me down so much."
"It's because you are distracted." Liu Pei stirred the teaspoon calmly, "Hongcheng, don't let me down."
Qi Hongcheng drank a lot more wine.
He didn't break the fragment, he just wanted to numb himself with alcohol.
But it was no use, his heart ached when he thought of Shu Bai crying.
Qi Hongcheng answered Lu Jingyan's call in a daze.
Lu Jingyan's voice was hoarse, "I've chosen."
Qi Hongcheng stabilized his voice and said, "I've chosen."
"I think Shu Bai is more suitable. Chi Ying's facial features are too stunning and inconsistent with the character of the second female lead. I will send you their resumes later."
If you hadn't seen Chi Ying's makeup that day, the credibility of Qi Hongcheng's words would be very high.
Chi Ying's beauty is too flamboyant, and some qualified directors will not consider her as a candidate for the second female lead.
But that day, she looked haggard and pale, which made Lu Jingyan's heart sting.
His eyes grew colder.
Chi Ying soon received another call informing her of the re-examination.
But this time it was not Qi Hongcheng who informed her, but Pei Yu's leader.
"The questions are the same as last time, just play normally."
Chi Ying came to Pei Yu's conference room. Senior executives, all in suits and leather shoes, sat down solemnly, and the air was a bit stagnant.
A re-examination for the second female lead alarmed so many senior executives, which really frightened her.
She looked from a distance and saw Qi Hongcheng sitting in the corner with an expressionless face.
Also present was Shu Bai, who was standing not far from her, with her fists clenched and her cheeks as pale as hers.
Shu Bai didn't know that Chi Ying had successfully passed Gu Yuanchen's audition, nor did he know about the deal between Lu Jingyan and Qi Hongcheng.
But the more Chi Ying is confident and calm, the more frightened and fearful she becomes.
On the day of the audition, she didn't see senior Chi Ying.
Could it be that she also
Shu Bai looked in Qi Hongcheng's direction in horror.
Fortunately, this time, although Qi Hongcheng was in a bad mood, his eyes kept falling on her.
His eyes hinted to her not to be nervous.
After the casting began, dozens of stern looks were cast at them in the conference room at the same time.
Shu Bai's mind went blank and his teeth chattered with nervousness, but it unexpectedly fit the character's personality.
Chi Ying was much calmer.
She doesn't feel nervous because she easily enters the character's world.
This may be her inherent advantage.
Someone quickly pointed out: "Shu Bai is not in the right mood and is too panicked."
"She just didn't perform well today." A mentor in Qi Hongcheng's team defended, "It's natural for people to be nervous when auditioning in front of so many leaders. On Saturday, her acting skills were more than a hundred times better than today."
Someone here sneered, psychological quality is a necessary condition for an artist. It would be ridiculous to ignore it.
Qi Hongcheng let out a long sigh. The matter has come to this, and it is useless to say more. He took the initiative to take responsibility early and said, "Sorry, our judgment was wrong."
"Oh, really?" the chairman of Peiyu's board of directors scolded coldly, "Qi Hongcheng, you really disappoint me."
He has always turned a blind eye to the unspoken rules of the entertainment industry, but this is the most important work in Pei Yu's history, and it involves the life and death of Lu Jingyan's investment of hundreds of millions.
However, Qi Hongcheng remains willful. For his own selfish purposes, he takes advantage of the director's power to enjoy and indulge in sexual pleasures. This is very unforgivable.
Several photos of him and Shu Bai entering and leaving the hotel were shown in front of him. Qi Hongcheng was shocked, "It's not what you imagined."
It's a pity that I can't argue with you.
But Qi Hongcheng thought that since Shu Bai's acting skills still need to be polished, then her tears that day were real.
After reading this, he felt that his desperate sacrifice was not worth it.
Everyone present began to treat Chi Ying with respect.
Chi Ying became wary.
Finally, a contract was pushed in front of her.
Chi Ying read line by line, her eyes widened in shock, "So much liquidated damages."
"Yes, the cast will be exposed in advance this time. If the artist leaves, it will greatly affect the reputation." An executive of Peiyu Media said, "Don't worry, Ms. Chi, no one in the crew will make things difficult for you."
At this moment, Lu Jingyan, with the permission of President Pei Yu, had replaced all his production staff.
The director was replaced by Ou Shi's director, and the production was replaced by Ou Shi's production.
Pei Yukong has his own expression.
Jiang Chong knew that Mr. Lu blamed himself and regretted for many days when Ou Shi failed to take out the assassin, but he never gave up coveting this delicious food.
Peiyu blindly acquired the film and television rights of Qianji without considering its own financial strength and production strength. This was originally a mediocre and wrong decision by the leadership.
Not only is it not enough to become famous, but it may cause you to fall into trouble and become ill.
When Peiyu realized this problem, he was already riding a tiger.
However, they concealed everything from the outside world and created a well-funded corporate image. Even Liu Pei, who knew Qi Hongcheng well, did not find their internal problems.
Lu Jingyan's investment solved their urgent need.
Peiyu only holds a small part of the shares, but the profits generated by such a large production are enough to replenish their blood.
most
The important thing is that Lu Jingyan promised Pei Yu to use their names, which was what Pei Yu wanted most.
Jiang Chong knew that all this was not that simple, but he was not worried at all.
He's worried about something else
"We are all our own people in the team. What if Ms. Chi finds out that the investor is you?"
"And Qi Hongcheng." Jiang Chong paused, "He might tell it."
Lu Jingyan half-smiled, and his stern face seemed to regain some color, "I found it when I found it."
Jiang Chong was afraid that he was hearing hallucinations.
When Chi Ying signed her name on the contract, Lu Jingyan's tightly pursed lips finally softened.
She couldn't escape.
In her previous life, Chi Ying had filmed TV series with modern urban themes, and she had seen many domineering CEOs played by male stars in the crew.
They all have a height of at least 1.8 meters, handsome looks, and a proud and arrogant style.
But even the male star with the best acting skills and the voice actor with the coldest voice had never given her such a strong sense of suffocation and intimidation as the man in front of her.
Lu Jingyan was taller than expected. His high-end suits were exquisitely cut and his shirts were ironed with meticulous care.
The bridge of his nose is high, his thin lips are tightly pursed, and his jawline is cold and sharp, with no place that is not cold.
His whole body exuded an arrogant beauty that people couldn't take their eyes away from, and he was as noble as the gods on Mount Olympus.
It's a powerful aura that no actor can replicate.
Lu Jingyan was staring at her with lowered eyes, his eyes were cold and sharp, and there were emotions in his dark eyes that she couldn't guess.
Chi Ying tried her best to calm down the turmoil in her heart, her expression unchanged.
She naturally knew that no matter how perfect the man in front of her was, it had nothing to do with her.
But what shocked her was that Lu Jingyan's facial features were extremely similar to Chi Cheng's.
I didn't think it was particularly obvious when I saw it through the screen, but it wasn't until I saw it in person that I realized how similar the father and son were.
After Chi Cheng's eyebrows grow, I'm afraid that as soon as they meet, any explanations will be redundant.
This made her feel like she was falling into an ice cave.
Chi Ying shrank subconsciously, and the fingers holding the porcelain plate turned white.
However, this doesn't mean anything.
Everything hadn't started yet, how could she succumb to this.
So, she met Lu Jingyan's gaze in a neither humble nor overbearing manner, her pretty lips parted lightly, and she said politely and distantly, "Hello, Mr. Lu."
Lu Jingyan frowned out of habit and said in a low voice, "Your name is Chi Ying."
Chi Ying said "hmm" very calmly.
Beside Lu Jingyan, Jiang Chong, the president's special assistant, was surprised.
Over the years, Mr. Lu has been like a god without emotions and desires.
Even if A-list female celebrities came forward to strike up a conversation, they would turn a deaf ear, completely shattering the women's dreams.
What is Mr. Lu doing now
talk to a woman
Simply unprecedented.
Jiang Chong couldn't help but look at Chi Ying a few more times.
She is a pretty and fair young woman.
There was a faint layer of moisture in her beautiful eyes, and there was a flash of timidity and fear in her eyes, but they soon returned to calm.
Due to drinking some wine, her cheeks turned faintly pink, and she was as timid and charming as a young girl in love.
Her arms were bent, holding a porcelain plate containing saka in both hands.
Above the dishes, a slim-fitting dress outlines the beauty of a woman's breasts.
Really beautiful like a fairy.
No wonder Chi Ying caused quite a stir among the guests when she entered the venue before the dinner.
He thought it was some big-name first- and second-tier celebrities, and thought that these actresses shouldn't be invited to this dinner.
Unexpectedly, the protagonist turned out to be a girl who had not yet debuted.
Jiang Chong's expression changed subtly.
Could it be that Mr. Lu likes this
Jiang Chong was about to move the small bench and continue watching the show, but saw Lu Jingyan look away and said in a deep voice, "Continue."
Lu Jingyan's calm and confident aura made the partners feel a little intimidated. One of them hunched over and respectfully said "Okay, okay" and continued with a smile on his face.
Chi Ying quickly looked away, still feeling frightened.
She had imagined the possibility of her stepping into the circle and meeting Lu Jingyan, but she was also confident that she was capable enough to minimize this possibility.
Lu Jingyan is a monster who doesn't eat the fireworks of the world. He will not be interested in any woman except Shu Bai. Apart from business cooperation, I will not have any interactions with the opposite sex.
As long as she stays away from the Ou Shi Group and protects Chi Cheng, the probability of them meeting is extremely slim.
Chi Ying really never expected that they would meet so quickly.
Did she make some wrong decision that accelerated the fate line
It was a pity that Lu Jingyan's expression was so unpredictable that she really couldn't understand it.
No matter what, you have to be more careful in the future and stay farther away.
The venue is very large and is divided into many different areas due to the regional differences in dishes.
When Chi Ying returned to her seat, Director Song was nowhere to be seen.
Only Yue Zhuo was leaning back on the seat comfortably, playing with the wine glass with one hand and narrowing his narrow eyes lazily.
Seeing Chi Ying Shi Shiran approaching, Yue Zhuo said happily:
"I have sent someone to take Teacher Song back. Please let me know when Miss Chi comes home later. If there is nothing else to delay, I will drive you home."
Chi Ying smiled politely, "Don't bother Mr. Yue, I can go back by myself."
Yue Zhuo shook his head seriously, "No, Teacher Song said, Miss Chi is my senior sister, if something goes wrong, she will kill me."
Chi Ying smiled softly when she heard the word senior sister.
She knew that what Yue Zhuo said was true, and it fit Song Qingfeng's personality very well.
Yue Zhuo even felt that the senior sister's shouting was awkward.
In his opinion, Chi Ying is just a relatively well-developed girl. She is obviously very young. How can she be a sibling with an old man like him? Only Old Man Song can come up with such a bad word.
Of course, Yue Zhuo didn't take it seriously, but kept calling "Miss Chi" one after another.
In fact, the drunk Song Qingfeng wanted Yue Zhuo to help watch Chi Ying to prevent her from being abducted on some pirate ship.
Chi Ying was so beautiful that he really felt uneasy.
If something irreversible happened because of Song Qingfeng, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
Although Yue Zhuo seems to be an unorthodox apprentice, he is not much more reliable than other people in the circle who dress like beasts.
Chi Ying and Yue Zhuo didn't exchange a few words, they just exchanged contact information, and then Yue Zhuo was summoned away, ready to continue socializing.
"Miss Chi, please excuse me." Yue Zhuo put one hand in his trouser pocket and stood up lazily, "Remember to call me when you leave."
Chi Ying knew that he would not give up on his idea and did not reject it. She smiled and said "Yeah".
After Yue Zhuo left, she quietly tasted the Greek national dish alone.
The texture is crispy and the taste is unique. The taste buds were greatly satisfied, and it was a worthwhile trip.
She took a sip of red wine and prepared to go back.
Before informing Yue Zhuo, Chi Ying went to the bathroom for the last time.
After a full stomach, her spirit relaxed and her vigilance became weaker.
Caught off guard, before Chi Ying could step into the men's and women's compartments, someone grabbed her shoulders tightly.
The other party hit her so hard that she was thrown heavily against the wall.
The fabric of the dress was very thin, and a sharp pain shot through my back.
Chi Ying woke up in an instant, and her pupils shrank suddenly.
It was the prince who was extremely arrogant at the beginning of the banquet.
The man smelled of alcohol, his eyes were red, and his eyes were filled with blurred lust.
He stared at Chi Ying as if he were gazing at easily captured prey.
He locked her shoulder blades with his big palms and leaned forward aggressively, "Chi Ying, follow me, okay."
Chi Ying tried to struggle, but found that she was completely imprisoned and unable to move.
The pressure from the prince's fingertips made her feel painful, and the overwhelming smell of tobacco and alcohol poured into her nasal cavity.
Her stomach began to sour and she felt extremely uncomfortable both physically and mentally.
Chi Ying's eyebrows knitted together tightly, she glared at him and said angrily: "Let me go."
There are many unspoken rules in the entertainment industry, but for her, they are nothing more than various hints in her eyes.
She didn't expect that at such a grand dinner, someone would dare to openly molest her.
It's really unheard of, unseen
The man was immersed in the angry look of the beauty in his palm, and became more and more fascinated.
A beauty is still a beauty when she is angry. No matter how angry the words on her lips are, in his opinion, they are just coquettishness.
Feeling Chi Ying's resistance, he raised the corners of his lips teasingly and spoke cruelly.
"disobedient"
"Follow me, and I will give you whatever you want."
"You can choose any number one female lead in a movie or TV show in the world."
As he spoke, the strength in his hand became a little stronger.
"But if you don't comply, you won't be able to continue to hang out in this circle."
When Chi Ying heard the word "Huanyu", her eyes widened in horror.
She finally remembered the name of the person in front of her.
Cheng Huan, the male protagonist who loves the heroine to the point of going crazy in the book.
Unable to get what he asked for, he eventually fell into a state of morbid madness and used all despicable means to obtain the heroine's body.
Characters in novels are always portrayed to extremes.
Since there is a perfect boss like Lu Jingyan, there must also be another villain who can be called pathological.
Cheng Huan is that extreme person who is arrogant, arrogant, and cruel.
Now that she was there, the coldness made Chi Ying break into a cold sweat.
Even if she is not the heroine, it will not make Cheng Huan crazy. Chi Ying also knew the consequences of being stubborn with a character like Cheng Huan.
When she came to the toilet, she kept holding her cell phone in her right hand.
At this moment, with her hands behind her back, she could barely rely on her intuition for the location to explore the screen.
After unlocking with your fingerprint, click the call history icon in the lower left corner of the screen, and then select the phone number at the top
When they just exchanged numbers, Yue Zhuo dialed her number.
Whether calling the police or notifying family members, it is better to call for help to someone present because they will not be able to arrive in time.
What's more, in this situation, telling the location during the call is a powerless thing.
Chi Ying hoped that she had successfully dialed Yue Zhuo's number.
At the same time, she cleared her throat muffledly.
At worst, she was ready to call someone.
The little guy has been jumping around tirelessly all day, but he is finally tired.
Mother and son kissed each other goodnight as usual, and Chi Cheng snuggled into Chi Ying's arms and fell asleep.
Chi Ying lay on the bed, resting on Chi Cheng's even breathing, unexpectedly tossing and turning.
Because it is an IP adaptation of a popular novel, this audition provided the actors with the background and information of the character in advance.
Chi Ying's facial features are bright and stunning, which does not match the image of the second female lead who has low self-esteem and is fragile.
So on the day of the audition, she put a lot of thought into her makeup.
The highlights are just right, making the facial features look slimmer and three-dimensional.
The eye makeup is waterproof and smudge-proof, and the ends of my eyes are droopier than usual.
His face was paler than before, and his lips were duller.
She looked in the mirror with a different temperament.
Lost in thought, as fragile as glass.
When he smiled, his eyes were like water, soft and quiet.
Chi Ying's makeup was so realistic that even Chi Cheng frowned and pulled her clothes, "Mom, Mom, are you sick?"
He spoke urgently and worriedly, sounding like he was about to cry.
This actually made Chi Ying feel heartbroken. She held the little guy's face and told him seriously, "No, mom is just wearing makeup."
Chi Cheng looked unconvinced.
Chi Ying realized that her expression was too serious, and turned to smile brightly, with bright eyes that seemed to be shining like stars.
Chi Cheng said "Ah" with a childlike and pure voice. He opened his eyes wide and asked curiously, "What is makeup? Is it something mom does after brushing her teeth every day?"
