Chapter 110 Su Mo's Audition
Chapter 110 Su Mo's Audition
"Momo, don't be nervous." Lin Qian seemed to be cheering Su Mo up, but in fact, she was cheering herself up. Since the last audition failed, Lin Qian was a little afraid of auditions. It was not that she was afraid that Su Mo would not be selected, but she was afraid of meeting someone like Qin Jiangjiang again.
Su Mo knew Lin Qian's personality very well, so he said, "What happened before was normal, don't be nervous."
Lin Qian turned her head away stubbornly, pouting, "Humph, who said that? I was just afraid you'd be nervous, this is a police and gangster movie after all."
"Don't worry, I will be invincible." After this period of training, Su Mo is very confident in his fighting skills. He made a handsome boxing gesture and looked at Lin Qian confidently.
"Keep a low profile. Don't say that again after you get off the car." Lin Qian thought that it was fortunate that they were in the car and no one else could hear it.
"Okay, okay, I'm the one who's nervous. You're not nervous." Su Mo saw that Lin Qian seemed to be facing a great enemy, so he joked.
"Hmph." Lin Qian got out of the car angrily, and walked in front. She seemed to be angry and deliberately kept a certain distance from Su Mo, but in fact, she was afraid that someone around her might do something tricky, so she kept looking left and right.
Su Mo followed behind, smiling helplessly. It seemed that the incident with Qin Jiangjiang last time still had some impact on Lin Qian.
The two of them arrived at the waiting area smoothly, and completed the sign-in and lottery according to the audition process. This time Su Mo drew number three, which was a good number. The two of them found a quiet place to wait.
"Look, over there, isn't that Wang Xia Xia~"
"Really? Why would anyone else give it a try? She and Wang Wugang have worked together before, so their CP foundation is pretty good."
The two actresses whispered to each other.
Su Mo looked at Wang Xia Xia walking towards him from a distance and thought: How could such a beauty like to abuse herself? She actually came to audition for a police and gangster film. It was obvious that she had no martial arts skills.
"Xia Xia~" Wang Wu came out of the lounge and saw Wang Xia Xia. He waved excitedly and whispered a few words to the director next to him.
"Brother Wang Wu." Wang Xia Xia responded to Wang Wu enthusiastically and walked naturally to Wang Wu's side.
Wang Wu first introduced the director to Wang Xia Xia, "Xia Xia, this is Director Liu." Then he turned to Wang Xia Xia, "Director Liu, this is Wang Xia Xia."
"Hello, Director Liu. I'm Wang Xia Xia, and I really like the movies you make. If I'm lucky enough to be selected this time, I will definitely act with my heart." Wang Xia Xia said modestly.
Director Liu liked Wang Xia Xia's attitude very much and said with a smile: "Xia Xia, I heard Wang Wu praise you, don't let me down later."
Wang Xia Xia lowered her head shyly.
The actresses around who heard this all looked envious. Director Liu said that as long as Wang Xia Xia's acting wasn't too bad, she would basically have secured the leading female role.
At this time, Wang Wu asked, "Xia Xia, what's your number?"
Wang Xia Xia looked up, showing an aggrieved expression, "I was unlucky today, I drew number 9."
"Ah, that's not the second to last one." Wang Wu suddenly realized something and quickly covered his mouth.
Wang Xia Xia hummed softly and looked at Director Liu with anticipation.
Director Liu coughed and said, "Wang Wu, it's time for us to go in. Today's task is very heavy. You have to watch carefully and take your time to choose. The leading actress will have many scenes with you in the future."
Wang Wu wanted to speak up for Wang Xia Xia, but the agent next to him pulled Wang Wu's sleeve where no one could see, signaling him to stop talking.
Wang Wu lowered his head and followed Director Liu and the others into the interview room.
Wang Xiaxia's assistant watched Director Liu and his group walk away, walked up to her and whispered, "Xiaxia, let's go sit over there."
Wang Xiaxia took advantage of no one's attention and glared at her assistant, complaining that she drew a number too late. The assistant shrank her neck and took Wang Xiaxia to find a place to sit down.
Lin Qian has always been disgusted with people who act pretentiously, so she said in a low voice, "Why feel wronged? You drew your own number. Are you blaming others for drawing too early?"
Su Mo soothed, "Okay, stop looking, it will be my turn soon."
Lin Qian retracted her gaze and waited patiently for Su Mo's audition.
After a while, a staff member ran out, stopped in front of Wang Xia Xia, and talked to Wang Xia Xia about changing the number according to the instructions from his superiors.
"Ah, really?" Wang Xia Xia suddenly said in surprise, instantly attracting the curious eyes of the people around her. Then she said a little embarrassedly: "Isn't this a bad idea? After all, she drew the number. It doesn't matter if I wait a little longer. I can't make things difficult for Director Liu."
The staff standing in front of Wang Xiaxia complained that Wang Xiaxia was too loud, which was not an upright thing to do, but thinking that it was instructed by the superiors, they still said with a smile: "What's the big deal? Director Liu is looking forward to your performance." Then he said in a disparaging way, "Even if others went in earlier, it would only highlight your excellence, Xiaxia, so it's better to save your energy."
"This..." Wang Xia Xia hesitated for a few seconds, then said sympathetically: "Well, I don't want to keep Director Liu waiting too long, but you have to talk to the other actor. I hope she can understand. Don't be emotional."
"Okay, okay, Xia Xia, you are really considerate." The staff member said with a smile and turned around to look for her in the crowd.
The actors sitting near Wang Xiaxia understood what was going on. Although they were a little angry, they also knew that this was the status quo of the entertainment industry. Whoever is more popular will have more opportunities. They all prayed in their hearts: Don't exchange numbers with us. Otherwise, we won't even have the chance to audition.
The staff member found the person he was looking for, said hello to Wang Xiaxia, and walked over with big strides. Everyone's eyes followed her figure, and everyone was curious about who the unlucky person was.
"Hello, are you Su Mo?" the staff member asked arrogantly, which was completely different from her image when she was talking to Wang Xia Xia before.
Su Mo raised his head, looked at her coldly, and said nothing.
The staff member said in an impatient tone: "I'm asking you, are you Su Mo?"
"Can't you speak properly? Do you have a mouth for spitting shit?" Su Mo lectured. Although she didn't open her eyes just now, the voice of the staff and Wang Xiaxia's conversation still reached her ears, so she was very dissatisfied. Why should she give up her number just because Wang Xiaxia and Wang Wu had a few words?
The staff member was so angry that she wanted to curse, but seeing so many people looking at her, in order to avoid further entanglement, she said in a businesslike tone: "Change your audition number to 9."
"Why?" Su Mo asked.
"Why? Just change it if the higher-ups tell you to." The staff member regained some confidence. This was the arrangement from above and they were just carrying it out.
"Then I don't agree." Su Mo said word by word, his voice was sonorous and powerful. For a moment, no one in the waiting area dared to speak, and it fell into deathly silence.
Wang Xiaxia watched the two quarreling, and a fleeting smile flashed across her face. She had just confirmed with her agent that Su Mo was just an 18th-tier artist. Then she stood up and said softly as she walked away, "Don't be angry, it's all my fault. I wanted to audition earlier, so this happened. Otherwise, I won't change."
The staff member hurriedly said, "Xia Xia, no, you are asked to audition first."
