Night fell in Los Angeles, in the elegantly furnished room, the white Labrador Danny lay on the carpet and licked his feet, Jessica sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the entertainment edition of the Los Angeles Times in her hand with a frown, only to see that the position of her eyes was about Wang Yang's personal private life.

"From the beginning, she was my angel and I thanked God, and I said to God, 'God, you are so good! Every time I meet her, I feel like it's the most wonderful thing in the world. But then, all of a sudden, we suddenly became as if we hated each other, and every time we met, we would argue about where to go to play and what to eat. I love the cinema and she loves the amusement park......"

Looking at these words, Jessica's face was full of sullenness, and she muttered in a strange voice, "Thank God, that girl doesn't like the movie theater or McDonald's, doesn't she?" She laughed and shook her head, "Hey, what the hell are you talking about?" She looked at the newspaper for a while, and suddenly asked, "Danny, did you say that girl was pretty?" The Labrador Retriever tilted his ears and looked at her suspiciously.

"Well, Danny, I just don't know what you look like?" Jessica continued to look at the newspaper, and suddenly said to herself, "What type of girl will she be?" Before the words fell, she patted herself on the head and said helplessly, "Oh, are you crazy?"

At this time, the mobile phone on the desk rang suddenly, Jessica put down the newspaper with a sigh of relief, put on slippers and walked to the desk to pick up the phone, looked at it, it was her agent, Ms. Miranda, and then answered the channel: "Hi, Miranda?" Immediately, I heard Miranda say: "Jessica, I received news from the company, you have passed the first round of the selection of the heroine of "Youth Musical" and can participate in the second round of interviews. ”

"Wow, really?!" Jessica laughed happily, and although it was expected, her heart beat a few times. She walked to the white dressing table and sat down in front of the white dressing table with her mobile phone in her hand, looked at herself in the mirror, and said excitedly: "I've been looking forward to it for a long time! Miranda, when is the day of the interview?" She has recently practiced acting skills every day, watched campus movies, and practiced a song, all of which are for the audition of "Youth Musical", and she can't wait for it.

Instead of answering her question, Miranda smiled and said, "Jessica, I have some good news for you." ”

"What? Wasn't that good news?" Jessica laughed and said, "What else?"

"A better news. Miranda's tone was pleasant, and she said, "Do you remember the audition for "Idle Hands" more than a week ago?" Jessica said "um", it was her most recent film audition, and Miranda had a good relationship with the film's director, Rodman Fred, so she recommended her to audition for the actress. Miranda laughed: "As far as I know, Mr. Fred will make a decision soon, and you have a good chance of playing the heroine." ”

Looking at herself in the mirror with a stunned expression, Jessica reacted and asked with a smile, "Really, Miranda, it seems that my good luck is coming." She was naturally happy in her heart, but she didn't care much, because Miranda had said many times that "there was a great chance", but every time it failed.

Heard Miranda laughing, "Yes, you're in luck." Jessica thought about the previous question and asked again, "By the way, when is the interview time for "Youth Musical" and where is it held?"

"Jessica. Miranda's voice softened and said, "If you become the heroine of "Idle Hands", don't pay attention to "Youth Musical". She explained: "Shooting of 'Idle Hands' will start soon, and so is 'Youth Musical', and their production schedules overlap. ”

Jessica rolled her eyes in the mirror, and while rating her expression, she said casually: "Miranda, I don't want to talk about this, I'm not the heroine of any movie now, there's no scheduling problem." ”

"You need to think about it seriously, here in Idle Hands, I asked Mr. Fred, and he was full of praise for you, and this time you have a really good chance. Miranda's tone was serious.

"Oh, I see, I'll think about it. Jessica pretended to answer seriously, and then asked, "Miranda, then please tell me the time and extent of the interview?"

Miranda had no choice but to reply to her: "The day after tomorrow, it will start at ten o'clock in the morning, and it will be held at the headquarters of the Flame Film Company." ”

After getting the answer, for fear that Miranda would continue to say something "chosen", Jessica hurriedly said: "Oh, I know where it is, I'll just go over by myself that day." I'm going to hang up, I'm going to hurry up and practice my acting! Good night, Miranda. After saying it in one breath, she pressed the end call button on her mobile phone, shook her head and smiled.

"Come, start. Jessica looked in the mirror, bared her teeth, played a happy expression, and said, "Hi, my name is Jessica, it's nice to meet you......"

※※

The stairs were trampled with a loud sound, and Jessica was seen walking down beautifully dressed. Today is the audition day for the heroine of "Youth Musical", she got up early in the morning, finished washing, and began to dress up carefully, after dressing up, put on the clothes that had been matched before, and then walked downstairs.

"Good morning, Mom!" Jessica came to the dining room, smiled and said hello to her mother who was making breakfast in the kitchen, she opened the standing glass window of the dining room, looked at the green lawn outside, stretched out her hands, enjoyed the early morning sun, squinted her eyes and said, "The weather is so good!"

Cathy from the kitchen smiled, "yes, the weather is nice." She put a few sandwiches on the dinner table and asked, "Jessica, Miranda and I said, are you going to audition for "Youth Musical" today?"

"Yes, at the headquarters of Flame Films. Jessica said and went to the kitchen to wash her hands, came to the dining table, picked up a sandwich and took a bite, and said to Cathy, "I'll drive by myself, and I won't be back for dinner at noon." Cathy nodded, smiled and patted her daughter on the shoulder, "Come on, Jessica." Jessica gave her mom a well-behaved smile and said confidently, "Thank you, Mom, I will." Then she took another bite of the sandwich and vaguely praised, "Wow, Mom, the sandwich is delicious!" Cathy laughed, "Thanks, little slippery." ”

At this time, Joshua, who was wearing a jersey and shorts, walked in panting, he had just come back from a morning run, he went to get a sandwich without washing his hands, and glanced at Jessica, who was dressed neatly, and smiled: "Wow, it looks like someone is going on a date?"

"Oh, you're right, I dated a very handsome and charming guy, it's so exciting. Jessica feigned excitement and ignored Joshua. After eating a sandwich, she went to wash her hands again, and said Cathy said, "Mom, I'm leaving." With that, he went to the garage outside.

Joshua turned to her back and shouted, "Hey, should I tell Jan?"

"Whatever!" Jessica's voice came from afar.

Flame Pictures is located close to Hollywood and is easily accessible by car. When Jessica arrived, it was only half past nine, and she was standing at the gate of the Flame Company, looking at the sign "flames-films" hanging on it, and the strange sign, and her heart was full of inexplicable joy, this is Jan's company! What does this sign mean? She thought for a while, and had no clue, the moths and butterflies pounced on the flames, could it be self-destruction? How could it be, it certainly wouldn't be what it meant......

Jessica shook her head, didn't continue to think about it, she walked inside, came to the front desk, smiled at the front desk lady and said, "Hello, I'm here to audition for "Youth Musical". ”

Miss Aurorari, the front desk lady, stood up and said with a smile: "Oh, the audition time starts at ten o'clock, please come with me, I'll take you to the audition room and wait." ”

Jessica followed her into the interior of the Flame Film Company, and bypassing the busy office, she came to the outside of the reception room, which served as the audition location, where several equally well-dressed girls were already waiting in their chairs.

"Please wait here, the audition starts at ten o'clock. Miss Aurorari, the front desk lady, said another word before returning to the front desk.

"Hi. Jessica politely greeted the girls, found an empty chair to sit down, and secretly took a deep breath, feeling a little nervous, as if this was her first audition. She looked at the girls around her, some of them were touching up their makeup in front of the small mirror, some were chatting with the agents who came with her, each of them was very beautiful, it was like a big gathering of cheerleaders in Los Angeles high school, and in terms of appearance, she didn't seem to have the slightest advantage.

After looking around, Jessica withdrew her gaze, clenched her fists and cheered herself up: "Come on, have faith, I will get the heroine!"

As the audition time got closer and closer, the girls arrived one after another, and there were more than twenty of them. At this time, Wang Yang and Sandy Pikes, secretary Fuona Hasson, and Ms. Robert, a music teacher who was specially invited to help, came over, Wang Yang glanced at the beautiful girls and found Jessica's figure, Jessica smiled at him, he naturally couldn't greet her alone now, so he had to look at her, but smiled at the beautiful girls: "Hey, girls, come on!"

"I will!" "Let's start right away!" The beautiful girls all responded with a smile, making the scene a little coaxing, a few girls also whistled, and a beautiful woman got up and shouted loudly: "Yang, I love your "Ghost Record" to death, the shooting is awesome!" Wang Yang, who was about to walk into the reception room, stopped, turned around and smiled: "Thank you, but it won't give you extra points." Everyone laughed, and the beautiful woman sat down with a smile.

"Thank you......" Jessica looked at the closed door and said softly, Wang Yang's encouragement made her feel a lot less nervous.

In the reception room, for today's audition, the company specially moved a long table, Wang Yang and other judges sat in the back, and an iron bracket was placed next to the long table, and a broadcast-level camera was set up, which was leased back by the company and was ready to be used during the audition.

"Lady Robert, I'm going to trouble you today. Behind the long table, Wang Yang shook hands again with Ms. Robert, a middle-aged white woman in her forties who was a music teacher at a Los Angeles recording studio, and was tasked with reviewing the girls' voices and musical talents. However, they are going to make movies, not to dig out any future music superstars, so the so-called "musical talent" is actually very low, as long as it is not absolutely incomplete.

Ms. Robert, a very talkative person, jokingly said, "It's nothing, it's my pleasure, Mr. Wang, I'll dig you a 'Madonna'." Wang Yang said with a smile while sorting out the documents on the table: "Oh, I don't need Madonna, I want Hepburn." ”

After a while, the time came to ten o'clock, and Sandy Pikes reminded Wang Yang. Wang Yang nodded, picked up the audition list in his hand, there were thirty names, and the actor of "Gabriella" would be produced among these girls. He glanced at the girls' names, and he wasn't going to call Jessica to come in for an audition in the first place, that would stress her out.

"Let Jennifer Love Hewitt in. Wang Yang said to the secretary Foona Hasson, Foona answered and walked out, he was a little stunned, he arranged Jessica's biggest opponent as the first audition, is this his subconscious bias?

Soon, a girl opened the door and walked in, it was Jennifer. Her long black hair is in a shawl, and under a rather tight suit, her sexy figure and plump upper circumference stand out. She showed a very sweet smile to Wang Yang and several other interviewers, and introduced herself: "Hello everyone, I'm Jennifer Love Hewitt, and I'm very happy to participate in this audition." ”

Wang Yang visually inspected her camera sense, this girl was very good except for her nose that was a little too long and too tall, and he began to ask: "Hello, Miss Hewitt, your information says that you have been learning singing and dancing since you were a child, right?"

Jennifer nodded confidently and replied, "Yes, I joined the acting troupe when I was five years old and started learning to sing and dance......"

At the same time, the girls in the corridor outside the reception room were also waiting patiently. Jessica was thinking about "what performance questions will be asked by Xia Yang" when she was suddenly patted on the shoulder from behind, and she reflexively looked back, only to see a girl behind her and smiled at her: "Hi, hello, we have met before, the previous audition for "Idle Hands", remember?"

Jessica looked at her seriously, thought about it for a moment, and exclaimed, "Oh, I remember, yes!" On the day of the audition for "Idle Hands," they made a few eye contacts, but at that time, they were far away from each other, and they didn't speak. The girl in the back smiled and held out her hand and said, "Hello, my name is Eliza Dushku. ”

"Jessica Alba. Jessica shook her hand and said politely, "Nice to meet you." Eliza also smiled: "Me too." ”

The two chatted for a while, and then there was a faint burst of singing in the reception room, and the corridor immediately fell silent, but no one was surprised, because everyone had long known that singing was needed for this performance. Listening to the melodious singing inside, Jessica felt a little nervous in her heart, she couldn't sing such a professional singing voice......

"What's wrong?" Eliza saw her nervousness and asked, "Jessica, are you afraid to sing?" Jessica shook her head, "It's either scared, it's ...... A bit of normal nervousness. Eliza patted her on the shoulder and smiled comfortingly, "It's nothing, girl, relax! ”

Jessica smiled and shook her head, it was different, she was just called by Miranda to try her luck that day, and today's audition, she had been preparing for many days, and she was eager to get the role like never before. She suddenly remembered the "schedule" question that Miranda said, and looked at Eliza Dushku, who also participated in the audition for "Idle Hands", she couldn't help asking: "Eliza, if you were selected by both "Idle Hands" and "Youth Musical", which would you choose?"

"All chosen? Wow, I didn't think so. Eliza sighed with a smile. Jessica was a little embarrassed as she asked a stupid question that made her seem to think so. But Eliza didn't mean to be sarcastic about Jessica, she thought about it and said seriously: "If this really happens, I think I will choose to ...... "Youth Musical"!"

Jessica was a little surprised by Eliza's answer, "Idle Hands" is a film with an investment of 30 million, and director Rodman Fred has proven his strength many times; and the investment in "Youth Musical" is only 5 million, which is also Young's first film film, why did Eliza choose "Youth Musical"? She asked curiously: "Why?"

Eliza shrugged her shoulders and said, "I don't know, although "Youth Musical" is not favored by everyone, we all came to audition, maybe that's the reason." She raised her eyebrows and smiled, and said: ""Ghost Record" has a box office of 160 million in North America, I just think that guy is a smart person, his second movie should be good, and you know, "Idle Hands" is a horror comedy, in fact, I don't understand this genre, do they want the audience to scream or laugh? I'm still young, and I won't lose all the opportunities if I fight hard, but maybe I'll succeed." ”

"You're right......" Jessica nodded, not thinking about it again.

At this time, I saw Jennifer walking out of the interview room with a smile on her face, and judging by her expression, the audition process should have been completed well. Then the secretary Fuona Hasson called the next girl in for an audition, and one girl after another went in and came out again, some with disappointed faces, some elated. Jessica noticed that the girls who were disappointed were singing badly, and the girls who left laughing were singing well.

Then, it was Eliza Dushku's turn to audition, and after a while she walked out happily and smiled in a low voice with Jessica, "Wow, Wang Yang's smile is so charming! Jessica held her hair and smiled, "Oh yes...... Eliza smiled and nodded, and said, "I feel good about this audition, Jessica, you have to do it too." ”

"I will!" Jessica looked over the interview room and took a breath of nervousness.

Eliza's feeling is not wrong, Wang Yang is indeed very satisfied with her, her beautiful face and sexy body get a score for appearance, her performance is also good, she gets a B+, her dance A+, in fact, she will also star in "Cheerleader Pretty Girl" in the future, and sing B, this is the rating given by Ms. Robert. Of course, she also has disadvantages, that is, although she laughs charmingly, she tends to be sexy and not sweet enough, so her temperament is only B.

Wang Yang looked at the list in his hand, there were less than half of the interviewers left, not sooner or later, the mentality of the general interviewers is now the best adjusted. He turned to look at his secretary, Foona Hasen, and said, "Foona, let Miss Jessica Alba come in and audition." ”

"Okay. Voona Hasson walked out and shouted to the girls, "Miss Jessica Alba." Jessica, who was sitting in her chair, stood up and said, "Is it my turn?" and Voona Hasson nodded, "Yes, it's your audition." ”

Jessica straightened her clothes, stroked her tan hair again, and walked to the interview room. Entering the interview room, Foona closed the door, Jessica walked to the long table of Wang Yang and the other three judges, looked at Wang Yang, showed them a sweet smile, and said, "Hi everyone, I'm Jessica Alba." ”

"Hi Jessica. Wang Yang, who was sitting behind the long table, smiled at her, and could see that Jessica was a little nervous, so he was not in a hurry to start the audition, and said with a smile: "Jessica, sit down." How does it feel, how is the environment of our company okay?"

Jessica sat down in a leather chair and nodded, "The environment is very good, and the transportation is very convenient." ”

Wang Yang thought about how to make her relax, so he looked around and suddenly had an idea. He pointed to the company logo on the wall and smiled, "Do you see that logo?" Jessica looked over there and said "yep", Wang Yang covered his mouth and whispered, "That's my handwriting, when I handed the original manuscript to our company's designer, Miss Lisa Gro, and she said, 'Are these two penguins and a crown?'"

Jessica was amused by him, and her heart relaxed a lot, and she smiled, "Wow, that kind of logo is cute." ”

Sandy Pikes and Ms. Robert looked at each other, and both saw a little different, and there was no shortage of nervousness among the girls in the previous interviews, but the young director didn't help them relax.

Seeing that Jessica was much more natural, Wang Yang began to get to the point, stood up and said, "Okay, Jessica, let's start the audition......" Jessica also stood up from the chair and nodded: "Okay." ”

Wang Yang walked to the broadcast-level camera at the long table, held the camera and pointed it at Jessica a few steps away, only to see that inside the camera screen, Jessica, who was wearing a set of youthful clothes, stood there with a first-class sense of lens. He looked at the screen and smiled, "Jessica, give me a left side." As he spoke, Jessica turned sideways to the camera. He continued: "OK, turn to the right, OK, look at it at 45 degrees, OK, turn it around...... Okay, smile at the camera. ”

Jessica looked at the camera, smiled sweetly, and said, "Hey!"

"Wow! very good. Wang Yang couldn't help but sigh, Jessica's smile was too sweet and charming, her appearance and temperament were all a living "Gabriella", undoubtedly surpassing the original actor Vanessa Hudgens, in terms of appearance and temperament, she is absolutely A+, and she is also the best among the current interviewers.

Hearing his compliment, Jessica's face became more confident, and the tension in her heart disappeared.
