After hearing about Venus's current situation, Xie Junfei basically understood why Holland had called him here.

Now that she is Huo Shen's fiancée, her status is undeniably high, and everyone must give her some face.

Moreover, he is not currently involved in the entertainment industry, so those relatives and friends who try to get in through connections will not be able to get in his favor. Therefore, he will definitely act impartially.

What a brilliant tactic of using someone else to do the dirty work!

While the assistant director continued to complain, Xie Junfei had already fallen into deep thought.

Should I help Holland or not?

After some deliberation, Xie Junfei decided to do Huo Lan a favor.

After the break, the interviewer returned to the examination room.

Next, Xie Junfei stopped paying attention to the interviewers who were blatantly lying and started offering very sharp critiques.

In the first half, Xie Junfei often abstained from voting, resulting in a four-to-four tie among the eight interviewers. Although she couldn't give the actors A or S grades, she was still able to keep them in the semi-finals.

But that's impossible now.

Seeing Xie Junfei repeatedly cast dissenting votes, several of Venus's senior executives became anxious.

Yesterday, with the big boss Holland in charge, I naturally didn't dare to choose people randomly, so all the people with connections were gathered today.

Today, the big boss finally didn't come, so why did this inexperienced assistant have to come and cause trouble!

Xie Junfei cast her dissenting vote again without changing her expression, completely unmoved by the warnings and intimidating gazes directed at her.

What a joke! He's just a high-ranking executive at an entertainment company. He thinks he can scare me?

Back in the day, I was a legendary figure who carved out a bloody path in the capital market!

Thinking of this, Xie Junfei gracefully turned her head, her exquisitely beautiful yet imposing face revealing a touch of feigned concern at the opportune moment:

"What's wrong, Director Wang? Why are you blinking at me? Is your eye twitching?"

The assistant director, who had just been complaining to Xie Junfei, choked on his saliva and covered his mouth, trying hard not to laugh out loud.

I didn't expect this small coal mine owner to be so sharp-tongued.

However, the fact that she could ask this question does indeed show that she knows nothing about the entertainment industry.

After all, everyone knows that the young actor standing on stage has a close relationship with President Wang!

She's Mr. Wang's niece!

Seeing his assistant's blatant ridicule, President Wang chuckled dryly.

"No, Xiao Xie, you must have seen wrong."

After speaking, he glanced at his niece on the stage, who looked aggrieved, and his voice carried a hint of warning:

"But Xiao Xie, you're new to the industry, so don't narrow your path."

"The entertainment industry is not black and white; young people also need to learn to take things easy."

After saying that, President Wang stared at Xie Junfei meaningfully.

Xie Junfei's lips curled into a cryptic smile, his voice humble:

"Don't worry, Mr. Wang, of course I understand that principle."

After he finished speaking, just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief and was about to let the person on stage with connections prepare for the semi-finals,

The next second, in front of everyone, the girl cast her vote against it without hesitation!

Five to four, the nepotism case is out!

Mr. Wang stared wide-eyed at Xie Junfei, his face filled with disbelief:

"Hey Xie, do you know what you're doing?"

Xie Junfei smiled dismissively:

"nonsense."

After speaking, she looked up at the person with connections standing on the stage, who looked astonished, and her eyes were full of mockery:

"Wang Lili is 23 years old this year and graduated from Beijing Film Academy."

"At nineteen, you got pregnant with your boyfriend's child, took a year off from school, and went home to have an abortion and recover."

"At twenty, you acted like a diva on the set of 'Blue Water,' slapping the newly crowned Best Actress, which went viral."

"At 21, you attended a salacious party hosted by a tainted celebrity and were photographed by a tabloid reporter. In front of the camera, you even gave that reporter the middle finger."

After saying that, to everyone's astonishment, Xie Junfei elegantly crossed his legs and threw Wang Lili's resume on the ground!

Her eyes were teasing:

"The prerequisite for interviewing at Venus is that you have no scandals."

"Wang Lili, how did you, someone with so many scandals, manage to bypass the qualification review and get into the Venus preliminary round?"

Wang Lili was, after all, a spoiled and arrogant young lady who always had someone to cover for her no matter what bad things she did.

He was immediately angered by Xie Junfei's insult.

Her delicate and pretty face instantly turned extremely ugly:

"What I do is none of your business! Does Venus only look at resumes and not abilities during interviews?"

Upon hearing this, Xie Junfei immediately laughed.

You still dare to talk about your own abilities?

Regarding professional competence, the assistant director certainly has a lot to say, and immediately began to mock:

"Come on, girl, you're talking about your professional skills? They're more like the kind of professional skills you'd fail in acting class!"

"Damn it, your crying scene looks like a toad's. Everyone else cries with tears streaming down their face, but you, with that toad mouth, just keep yelling!"

"You shouldn't be an actor anymore; it's a waste of your talent to be an actor."

"I'll show you the way."

"You could go to the countryside and work as a professional mourner, just turn your voice up as loud as it can go, you don't need any acting skills, and you could earn three hundred yuan a day!"

After he finished speaking, the interviewers burst into laughter.

Only President Wang and Wang Lili on the stage looked embarrassed.

Xie Junfei rolled her eyes at the stage:

"What are you standing there for? Get out of here!"

"Our Venus Temple is too small to accommodate such a noble Buddha as you!"

After saying that, Wang Lili immediately left the stage in a disheveled state.

Seeing his people fail to be selected, President Wang stood up abruptly in anger, pointing at Xie Junfei in front of him, his hand trembling involuntarily:

"Good job, Xie Junfei, you're really great!"

"You're the PR director's assistant, right? I'm going upstairs to find you! I refuse to believe I can't deal with you!"

After saying that, he kicked the stool away and strode away.

Under the watchful eyes of all the interviewers, Xie Junfei nonchalantly whistled and looked at everyone with a relaxed expression:

"What, you guys also want to slink upstairs with your tails between your legs and complain to someone?"

"No problem, you're welcome."

After speaking, Xie Junfei made a "please" gesture.

However, the nail that sticks out gets hammered down, and at this point, no one dared to disagree anymore.

In the subsequent interviews, Xie Junfei continued to do things his own way, waving his hand to reject a large number of incompetent candidates who had connections.

At 7 p.m., they finally finished interviewing all the people.

Nearly four hundred people participated in the preliminary round, but only a handful of people made it to the semi-finals.

Xie Junfei removed the people with connections who were on the list in the first half, and the number of people was even smaller.

Venus has abundant resources, but it also has high requirements for the professional abilities of its artists.

In the semi-finals, the selection criteria became even higher, and ultimately no more than five people were able to achieve a grade of B or above.

As for those who were given A or S grade in the preliminary rounds due to connections, Xie Junfei had already sent the list to Huo Lan and asked Huo Lan to deal with them.

Several hours have passed, but Mr. Wang, who had said he would cause trouble for him, still hasn't shown up.

The actor auditions were over, but the interviewers had different expressions.

Unlike the externally hired interviewers, the interviewers, who came from Venus's senior management, all looked extremely grim.

After all, this audition is arguably the easiest time for a new actor to get the role of Venus.

Last year and the year before, a spot for Venus to enter the semi-finals was worth 200,000 yuan.

This year, the price has even doubled!

They accepted money from people with connections, but were blocked by Holland and this little assistant who appeared out of nowhere, and couldn't even get the job done!

How are they supposed to explain this to those people with connections?

Thinking about this, the interviewers who had received the money almost gritted their teeth.

Xie Junfei, however, remained calm and composed, tidied up her things, opened the door, and prepared to leave work.

During the intermission, the assistant director saw Xie Junfei preparing to leave and jogged over to her side.

He was about to say something when he saw a young girl with a ferocious expression outside the door.

The next second, upon seeing what the girl was holding, the assistant director's eyes widened, and he immediately shielded Xie Junfei with his body!

The black down jackets from the Central Academy of Drama covered the two people tightly, and then something was splashed on them!

Xie Junfei soon smelled a strong, burnt smell from the down jacket.

She opened her eyes wide.

It's sulfuric acid!
