Chapter 8

Hengdian, "Swords of Legends" crew.

Makeup audition site.

Most of those who can come for makeup auditions and take makeup photos are actors who have already been decided, but of course, there are a few like Zhou Jin and Chen Weiting who came together to audition for roles.

Because it hasn't officially started yet, many actors are waiting in the lobby.

Yang Mi and Reba are sitting together chatting.

Reba stared at Yang Mi's face for a long time and couldn't help but say: "Sister Mi, your skin is so good."

Yang Mi immediately thought of Zhou Jin, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, she didn't explain, just patted Reba's hand and said: "I'm going to find Director Liang to talk about something."

Reba nodded obediently.

Reba knew that Zhou Jin had passed the first round; she looked around, searched the crowd several times, but didn't see Zhou Jin's shadow.

After hesitating for a while, she opened WeChat and sent a message: "The audition will start soon."

The phone vibrated slightly, and a message came back soon: "I'll be there soon too, thanks for the reminder, Reba."

Reba's cheeks turned red, and her fingers tapped a few words on the screen: "I promised to treat you to a meal before, how about tonight?"

After typing, Reba stared at the screen expectantly.

"Sure."

Seeing these two words, Reba's eyes lit up, and she felt a little excited in her heart.

On the other side, Yang Mi found Director Liang.

"Director Liang, are there any vase roles that don't really need acting skills? Can you let that Zhou Jin I mentioned before try it?"

Director Liang was stunned for a moment.

Yang Mi personally recommended Zhou Jin? Could it be that Zhou Jin didn't tell her that he passed the first round?

Director Liang was about to speak when the door of the conference room was pushed open.

Zhou Jin walked in.

Yang Mi was clearly surprised when she saw Zhou Jin.

How could he be here?

Reba's eyes lit up the moment she saw Zhou Jin, and she immediately raised her phone and waved at him excitedly.

Zhou Jin saw the lively and excited Reba in the crowd, nodded at her, and also saw the surprised expression on Yang Mi's face.

He walked up to Yang Mi and Director Liang and said with a smile: "Sister Mi, why do you look so surprised?"

"Why are you at the audition site?" Yang Mi was a bit surprised.

"Of course, I passed the first round."

Although Yang Mi had already vaguely guessed this answer in her heart, hearing Zhou Jin say it out loud, she still widened her eyes instantly.

Zhou Jin looked at Da Mimi appreciatively.

Yang Mi was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt today, paired with dark blue tight jeans; the waistline was very tight, and the curve of her buttocks was wrapped by the jeans, round and full. With her slight side-turning movement, that curve became even more obvious.

Her neck was slender and fair, her collarbone was clear, and because it was hot, the two buttons on her neckline were unbuttoned, revealing the rose gold thin chain inside and a small piece of snow-white skin.

Her chest heaved slightly because of this surprise.

Yang Mi naturally noticed Zhou Jin's gaze, but just glared at him angrily and continued to think.

If it were just Director Liang's support, it would be impossible to overcome the producer who was auditioning.

Moreover, Director Liang didn't have such a big favor to force everyone to agree to let Zhou Jin come for a makeup audition.

Then there is only one possibility—Zhou Jin's acting skills are indeed very good.

Thinking of this, Yang Mi was surprised again.

So handsome, good acting skills, and such great bull-like energy; she had picked up a treasure.

Director Liang looked at Zhou Jin and nodded: "Go get your makeup done, Chen Weiting has already started."

Zhou Jin nodded.

Reba didn't know when she had come over, and hearing the director's words, she immediately said: "You don't know the way, I'll take you to the dressing room."

After saying that, Reba took Zhou Jin to the entrance of the dressing room, then raised her small fist and made a cheering gesture: "Zhou Jin, I'll cheer for you!"

"Thank you, Reba."

Zhou Jin smiled and touched Reba's head.

Reba's hair was soft and smooth, and Zhou Jin's fingers slid through her hair, feeling a slight warmth.

When Reba was touched on the head, her ear roots turned red quietly, and her eyelashes trembled lightly.

Zhou Jin walked into the dressing room.

Sitting in the dressing room was a sissy makeup artist, fiddling with his bangs in front of the mirror.

Seeing Zhou Jin come in, the makeup artist turned his head, his eyes widened suddenly, and he let out an exaggerated "Wow."

He stood up and walked half a circle around Zhou Jin, looking him up and down, and said: "Mommy, what a handsome guy!"

Zhou Jin looked at his sissy appearance, and goosebumps rose on his arms involuntarily.

The makeup artist saw Zhou Jin's thoughts at a glance, rolled his eyes and said: "Don't worry, although I look very bent, I'm actually a straight man."

He picked up a photo from the table and handed it over: "Look, this is my girlfriend."

Zhou Jin glanced at the photo and felt relieved in his heart.

"My name is Wu Liang," the makeup artist patted his chest, his tone very confident, "Don't worry, I'm absolutely professional."

Makeup audition is very troublesome; not only do you have to wear a wig, but you also have to change into the character's costume.

Wu Liang tossed and turned for about an hour and a half before he was done.

The 【Ancient Costume Appearance】 entry had also been activated.

Zhou Jin, with full makeup, stood up from the chair.

Looking at himself in the mirror, he couldn't help but brighten his eyes.

His appearance was already very high, and after wearing ancient costumes, his whole temperament was raised by a large margin, making him even more stunning.

Wu Liang deliberately stood further away, then carefully appreciated Zhou Jin with full makeup, instantly widening his eyes in surprise.

He had been in the makeup industry for so many years and had applied makeup for countless stars, but this was the first time he had seen someone who could be so stunning after makeup.

"Mommy, brother, you are too handsome!"

Wu Liang looked at Zhou Jin's face in the mirror, then at the makeup brush in his hand, and clenched his fists excitedly—this face was applied by him personally.

Many male stars are handsome but not suitable for ancient costumes; once they wear ancient costumes, their appearance drops several grades, or the sense of disharmony is particularly strong.

But Zhou Jin is different.

He is handsome himself, and his facial features can definitely be ranked in the top tier among male stars in the entertainment industry.

And after wearing ancient costumes, not only did it not discount, but he became even more handsome, and his whole person added an indescribable temperament.

Chen Weiting entered the dressing room earlier than Zhou Jin, and the time he finished makeup was also earlier than him.

He changed into his ancient costume, pushed open the door of the dressing room, and didn't go to take makeup photos directly, but went to the conference room first.

Sitting in the conference room were the producer, Director Liang, and several other important actors.

Everyone saw Chen Weiting walk in, their eyes fell on him, and after seeing his ancient costume appearance clearly, they all nodded in approval.

It is indeed good.

The producer took the lead in praising him a few times, and several Hong Kong stars next to him also echoed, saying that Chen Weiting's appearance must look good on camera.

Reba and Yang Mi looked at each other, feeling a bit worried for Zhou Jin in their hearts.

Chen Weiting curled his lips slightly, smiling very confidently.

Yesterday he heard that someone had passed the first round and was going to audition with him, and he was indeed panicked at the time, thinking it was some connected person forced in by capital.
