Chapter 81
Chu Yuxun, or rather, Shuangzi, is absolutely a quite unique existence in the entertainment industry.
Sometimes I think, if she weren't a real person, but a character appearing in film, television, literary movies, or novels and anime, she might even be a quite charming and controversial villain.
A pure, frail, and beautiful appearance, a pathological personality, and occasionally revealing a bit of being unable to help herself...
It’s just a pity that she is in the third dimension.
But even in the third dimension, her lethality remains very high.
So many people already know about the problems with her personality, and also know what she has done.
Yet, upon seeing that face of hers, they feel pity, are moved by her fragility and weakness, and even develop a feeling in their hearts that her nature isn't bad and that she didn't intend for things to turn out this way.
This is the lethality of the top-tier "white lotus" of the domestic entertainment industry.
Standing from the perspective of purely appreciating beauty, Bai Liang feels that Shuangzi really has something going for her; Brother Hu Yanbing is eating quite well.
But thinking back to the situation yesterday, he feels a bit of mourning for him.
This is truly a case of "can be viewed from afar but not played with"!
In the true sense of the word, whoever touches her is doomed.
Perhaps because Bai Liang’s direct gaze was too obvious, or perhaps because his behavior of eating a steamed bun at the entrance was too eye-catching, Shuangzi, who got off the nanny van, couldn't help but look at him twice more.
Thinking that the two would have to collaborate later, Bai Liang habitually smiled at her, looking completely harmless to humans and animals.
The result of this first "collision" was naturally a "complete victory" for Bai Liang.
The two made eye contact for less than two seconds before Shuangzi turned her head away first; she seemed to have a smile on her face, and when she walked nearby, she couldn't help but sneak another glance.
Li Yitong: I told you he is a succubus!
But that was the extent of the eye contact; next to Shuangzi was a woman who looked to be in her forties or fifties, constantly urging her on—it seemed to be her mother.
The other party didn't pay much attention to Bai Liang, the handsome man passing by, as her mind was mainly on Shuangzi’s business, nagging away over there.
In his final glance, Bai Liang clearly saw the impatient expression on her face, but it quickly disappeared, and she kept agreeing with her mouth.
Finishing the last steamed bun in a few bites, Bai Liang checked the time; this time he had learned his lesson and arrived half an hour early!
"You arrived so late, are you certain that your audition today will be fine?"
"Still late?"
Hearing Lin Yufen’s teasing, Bai Liang was stunned; is arriving half an hour early still considered late?
The other party chuckled, "You arrived later than the female lead, how can this be considered early?"
"Kid, there are plenty of 'rules' in the entertainment industry; you’d better learn slowly."
Bai Liang was thoughtful: So "protagonists" have so many invisible benefits?
Now he wants to play the male lead even more!
Although he likely wouldn't bother using some of these "rights," having them is indeed quite different.
But today, he still has to prepare well for the audition for the second male lead.
After Lin Yufen glanced at the preparation materials he had made, she actually felt quite confident; as expected, Bai Liang, if nothing else, just his professional attitude alone is truly upright.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have thought of recommending him whenever there was a role.
High professional level, good popularity, dedicated, upright attitude... it’s really hard not to want to collaborate with such an actor.
A director like Lin Yufen is no exception; she always feels that if you just stick Bai Liang there, at least the quality of a portion of the scenes is guaranteed!
Not to mention that this kid often guest-stars as "Teacher Bai," "enlightening" the actors he plays opposite, which saves them directors so much trouble.
Anyway, after using him once, Lin Yufen stated: Whoever uses him knows! He’s really good to use!
There aren't many people coming to audition today, mainly because the female lead’s contract hasn't been signed yet, and the male lead hasn't been decided.
Once these two are confirmed, the other roles will be easy to handle.
The time spent waiting for the audition isn't boring either.
In the previous two auditions, one had Meng Ziyi bragging to create a program effect, one had his good buddy Wang Yanlin accompanying him, and in between, there was feeding from Nazha.
Although Bai Liang doesn't have a great beauty or a good brother this time, he "caught" a sweet girl.
"Hey! You are Zhang Xianzong!" When Mao Xiaotong excitedly called out the name of the character Bai Liang played, he knew she must have been watching the show.
The sweetness level was a bit over the limit.
This girl’s smile is indeed very infectious; her pair of large, round, smiling eyes are moist and clear. Even though she is already twenty-seven, she looks like a "stupid" college student.
Bai Liang: Challenge accepted!
He immediately flashed a "super warm man smile" at her; in this move, he, Bai, has never feared anyone.
Huh?
Mao Xiaotong was stunned for a moment, her smile became even brighter, so Bai Liang increased the intensity a bit...
After a round of PK, both recognized the other’s infectiousness.
Bai Liang: If you have any need to "catch an affair" in the future, buddy can help count as a person to boost the momentum.
As for Mao Xiaotong, she only felt that this handsome guy was very interesting, but fortunately, she already had a partner, so her resistance was still quite strong.
"Wow, you are completely different from the show! Your acting is really great!"
"Are you talking about Zhang Xianzong? Actually, that was a natural performance; I am acting for you to see right now."
"Then your acting is still very good~"
Bai Liang rubbed his chin, "What you say makes sense."
"I am here to audition for the second female lead, Zhao Erxi; what about you? You wouldn't be the second male lead, would you?"
Bai Liang nodded; this isn't a secret that needs to be kept, and there’s nothing bad about admitting it.
He has always been open and aboveboard.
Mao Xiaotong is obviously also very knowledgeable; although "Wu Xin: The Monster Killer" is currently a hit, there is no way Bai Liang could reach Shuangzi’s status, so the greatest possibility is the second male lead.
Of course, the third or fourth male lead isn't impossible, but the second male lead has a plot of secret affection with her second female lead. As someone who is currently chasing "Wu Xin: The Monster Killer," she is quite curious to feel what "Zhang Xianzong" turning into a campus secret crush is like~
The two chatted away enthusiastically, but they also kept a safe distance by unspoken agreement.
Looking at each other, oh my, both are people with a great sense of "propriety."
Compared to Bai Liang’s ease, Shuangzi’s mood today is relatively average.
One reason is the dog incident yesterday, which made her and her boyfriend quite unhappy.
The other is her mother; even though she is the one acting, her mother is outputting opinions and ideas over there...
She feels annoyed inside but can't say it out loud, after all, it’s her own mother.
She still has to echo and smile.
As for the casting matters discussed with the producers and directors, Shuangzi isn't very interested; it would be better to talk about the pay.
Except for the male lead, what is there to discuss about the choice of other supporting roles?
After those supporting roles started auditioning, her mother went to watch, and after holding it in for a long time and sitting for a while, she finally found an excuse to go to the bathroom to wander around.
As a result, as soon as she went out, the latest message on her phone made her even more upset.
What does "let’s cool off for a while" mean? It’s just a dog...
Feeling annoyed, she lowered her head to type, but when she turned a corner, she wasn't careful and almost fell.
"Careful~"
After being supported by someone, Shuangzi stood steady, looked up to thank them, but was stunned for a moment.
Oh~
