Chapter 1 Auditions

Next Chapter

"Boom", Liu Xiaohan, who was sitting on the bed in the room watching an American drama, suddenly heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

She was stunned for two seconds, hurriedly put on her shoes and got out of bed, and ran to the living room, sure enough, her best friend Jiang Chenxing, who shared a house with her, fell straight on the floor, her eyes were closed, her face was white and weak, and she obviously fainted.

She crouched down, lifted Morningstar's head to her knees, and pinched her midriff so hard that it was not until she had pinched out the blood mark on her midl, and Morningstar woke up leisurely.

"What's wrong with you?" Xiao Han asked, "When I first entered the door, weren't you practicing handstands?

"Water, beef jerky. Morningstar said weakly.

Xiao Han helped her to the sofa in the living room, poured her a glass of warm water first, then took out a pack of beef jerky from his snack cabinet and gave it to her, hesitated for a moment, took out two more pieces of chocolate, and handed it to her: "You eat chocolate first." ”

Morning Star drank water and ate chocolate before he had the strength to speak: "I'm going to audition tomorrow, and I want to lose another five pounds in the past few days, so I'll eat less."

"This afternoon I went to the fencing gym to practice fencing for two hours, and when I came back and started a handstand, I felt dizzy after a handstand, I wanted to hold on for half an hour before eating, but who knew and fainted. ”

"What else are you losing weight?" Xiao Han sighed: "You are more than 1.6 meters tall and weigh only more than 80 pounds, do you need to lose weight?

Morningstar agreed with Xiao Han very much, nodded again and again, ate beef jerky quickly, and ate more than a dozen in a row, chewing until his cheeks were numb, and then he had to stop, drank a few sips of water, and sighed with satisfaction.

It's just that this satisfaction was quickly replaced by panic, remembering the agent's words, Morning Star quickly took out a small mirror from his bag, looked at his bun face repeatedly, and said dejectedly:

"The last time I auditioned, the director kept shouting to the cameraman to ask him to give me a long shot, and the cameraman said that it had always been a long shot, and the director took a closer look, only to find that I was a round face, and brushed me off directly. ”

"My agent blamed me for gaining weight recently, and told me to lose another five pounds, otherwise I would never get a role again. ”

"Your agent is crazy, are you crazy too?" Xiao Han was very disapproving: "You are a bun face, what does it have to do with fat? I can tell you, even if you lose ten pounds with such a face shape, you can't become an awl face, don't toss around!"

Morning Star was not convinced, raised his chin slightly, turned his face sideways, looked up at 45 degrees and took a selfie, compared it with the photo taken yesterday on his mobile phone, felt that his face seemed to be a little smaller than yesterday, and asked Xiaohan: "Don't you think my chin has been sharper recently?"

"I don't think anything has changed. Xiao Han deliberately hit her.

Morning Star wailed and put down the beef jerky, complaining to Xiao Han: "It's all your fault, making such delicious beef jerky at home, I often can't help but get up in the middle of the night to eat secretly, and I soon gained a few pounds, no, I was disgusted by the sharp-eyed director a few days ago." ”

Xiao Han laughed, of course she knew that Morning Star had been "stealing food", but between them, everything was mixed together, and they never knew what a little beef jerky was?

"Look, you're a person, you can't do anything bad by nature," Xiao Han teased her: "Steal a little beef jerky, and the meat will grow on your face immediately, this retribution should be the most cruel to you, so ah, you must change your ways, and don't steal my snacks in the future." ”

Morning Star nodded again and again: "Well, I know, I won't steal it again in the future, I'll ask you directly if you want it, so that God won't punish me." ”

Xiaohan: "----".

The logic of foodies is not generally strong.

After breakfast the next day, Chenxing painted himself with light makeup, brushed his teeth carefully, combed a big ponytail, put on the newly bought lake-colored skirt, and then said hello to Liu Xiaohan, and hurriedly rushed downstairs.

She has an interview for the role of a maid today, about ten o'clock, but the traffic conditions in the capital make her have to hurry, who knows when she will encounter a big traffic jam?

She and Xiaohan live in Beicheng, but the interview location of the director's appointment is in Nancheng, Chenxing took the subway first, took a taxi after getting off the train, and finally arrived within the agreed time.

When I went to the place, there were dozens of people waiting for the interview, and the hall was crowded in the dark, and the morning star was no longer surprised, these days, there are too many people who want to mix in the entertainment industry, but there are too few people who can mix up.

Like her, who debuted for a few years and signed a contract with a regular brokerage company, it is difficult to even win the role of a maid, there are many people.

This time, the role of the maid is a female supporting role with a bit of weight, and she has appeared in more than a dozen episodes, and her agent Tang Yun said that she entrusted several people to win this interview opportunity for her, and warned her that if she signed the contract, she would have to give her a favor fee.

Chenxing reluctantly agreed, who made her a three-nil person in the entertainment industry? No background, no resources, no education, her appearance is still unpleasant round face, after signing a contract with Haizi Film and Television Group, no agent is willing to take her.

In the end, it was the manager of the artist department who spoke and assigned her to Tang Yun, and Tang Yun reluctantly became her agent.

At the back of the long line, Morning Star was not idle, she took out the character script from her bag and continued to familiarize herself with her lines, she had memorized all the lines of the maid in these dozen episodes, not only memorized, but also carefully figured out the micro-expressions when she spoke in the mirror.

For today's interview, she has forced Xiaohan to watch her act over and over again in the rental house, until she vomited Xiaohan, and Morningstar spared her.

waited for nearly an hour, it was Morningstar's turn to interview, the interviewer was three men, the man in the middle Morningstar felt a little familiar, and thought about it seriously, it seems that he was interviewed on TV not long ago, and it should be the famous TV series producer Yu Xi.

The middle-aged man with a serious face on Yu Xi's right assigned the content of the performance to Morning Star, which is the scene where the maid in the play has no way to clear her name after being framed, and has to beg for mercy from her master.

Morning Star's heart chuckled, this scene was going to be full of tears, but she was very afraid of crying, and she couldn't cry all the time, and when she rehearsed in front of Xiao Han in the rental room in the past two days, she held back her tears for a long time.

Xiaohan suggested that she wipe her eyes with ginger slices when acting, but Morning Star refused, she felt that if she didn't bring out her feelings when acting, how could she act differently, although she was in the eighteenth line, she still had a pursuit of acting skills.

Morning Star turned her head to brew feelings, thinking about her life unsatisfactory, but no matter what she thought, her tears couldn't come out, Morning Star was so anxious that she sweated, and the opportunity she had finally waited for was going to be in the soup again?
