Reborn to bury love, I can reach for the stars.
Chapter 52 You're even prettier than you look on TV
Riding on this wave of popularity, previous interviews and magazines have been released one after another. Shi Wanmeng's fans feel like they are celebrating every day. Sometimes, Shi Wanmeng takes a break from her busy schedule to log into her alternate account, and every time she sees the chat history, it is 999+ messages.
Fat Little Fairy: Although I don't know what my daughter has been doing these past few days, she's kept us well-fed.
Qiuqiu is 80 years old this year: So the last look was from this magazine! It's so beautiful, I'll buy two copies, one to read and one to keep as a keepsake.
Picking grapes on the mountain: I have to say that interview was so cheesy, I wonder if the host is okay, hahaha.
Every day is a happy day: Hahaha, I'm worried about Wanmeng's mental state.
Minmin: I haven't seen her for the past few days, and I feel like she's up to something big again, all quietly.
Little Lemon: I just hope she gets a good film or television project in the future. I have to say, her acting skills are really good!
During the days she was missing, Shi Wanmeng was constantly tormented by Chi Yun. She attended acting classes during the day and read scripts at night, which was anything but relaxing. After comparing several options, Shi Wanmeng finally chose the role of the second female lead in a modern workplace drama called "The Road to Dreams".
In the TV series, the female lead and the second female lead join the company at the same time. The female lead comes from a small city, and the second female lead looks down on her somewhat. In the later competition, in order to stay, the second female lead tries various ways to please the senior employees and bands together with them to ostracize the female lead. In the end, the female lead stays on based on her own abilities.
The second female lead was also moved by the female lead's efforts in their daily interactions, and gradually changed her opinion of her. From targeting her to cooperating, they reached the peak of their careers together.
Shi Wanmeng not only really liked the character and the script itself, but also because, according to her memories from her previous life, although the show wasn't a huge hit, it still ranked in the top ten in viewership for the year, and it was of high quality and had a great reputation.
Clearly, her choice was within Chi Yun's expectations. He told her to focus on preparing while he contacted the production team's producer.
Not long after, Shi Wanmeng received news from Chi Yun that the audition was scheduled for two days later.
On the day of the audition, Shi Wanmeng went to the venue with Chi Yun early in the morning. She specially wore a slightly professional outfit according to the character setting in the script and her memories from her previous life.
When she arrived, there were already quite a few people there.
Experiencing this scene for the first time, Xiao hope was a little nervous and tugged at Chi Yun's sleeve: "Brother Chi, is this show really that big? Why are there so many people here?"
"Is this what you call a lot?" Chi Yun scoffed. "This is nothing."
I heard that the male and female leads have been decided. Today's auditions are mainly for the second female lead and the second male lead, but when Shi Wanmeng appeared in the dressing room, she still saw quite a few familiar faces.
Among them were rising stars who recently rose to fame with a hit historical drama supporting role, and veteran actresses who have played second female leads for many years. When Shi Wanmeng entered, many people began to whisper among themselves, and some even let out low, incomprehensible laughter.
"What's wrong?" Shi Wanmeng was a little confused.
Chi Yun led her to a quiet corner and whispered, "You're very popular right now, so it's normal to attract attention. It would be strange if others didn't see you as a competitor. Be more confident."
As soon as I sat down, a young girl who looked a bit unfamiliar approached me and asked cautiously, "Excuse me, are you Shi Wanmeng?"
Upon receiving her affirmative reply, he immediately beamed with joy: "Really? I like you so much! You're even prettier than you look on TV."
Everyone auditioning here is a fellow professional, so being praised so directly made Shi Wanmeng a little embarrassed: "Thank you, you're very beautiful too."
The girl was even happier to receive a response. She leaned closer and whispered, "I'm telling you, Gu Ling also came to audition earlier. She should be inside right now."
Upon hearing this, Shi Wanmeng and Chi Yun exchanged a glance and immediately understood why everyone had been snickering earlier.
Seeing their reaction, the girl seemed encouraged and blurted out everything she knew: "Let me tell you, Gu Ling looks so beautiful today! Oh, Wan Meng, aren't you dressed too plainly?"
Shi Wanmeng looked down at her clothes, smiled but didn't explain. Instead, she asked, "What's your name? Are you also here to audition for Anru?"
"Um," the girl, who had been very enthusiastic, became shy when asked her name: "My name is Ye Yun. I study acting, but I'm still a student. I was introduced to this opportunity by my teacher. I didn't really expect it to work out, but I just wanted to give it a try."
The top agent astutely grasped the key point, scrutinizing her from head to toe: "So you haven't signed with a company yet?"
Ye Yun shook her head: "The teacher told me to focus on my acting studies first and not to jeopardize my future for short-term gains."
Upon hearing this, Chi Yun nodded, took out a business card from his bag, and handed it over: "I am Shi Wanmeng's agent. This is my business card."
"Ah, this..."
The little girl was flattered.
Shi Wanmeng nodded encouragingly: "Keep it. My agent is reliable. What year are you in college?"
"I'm a junior now."
"That's about right. You'll be doing your internship next year, so you can go back and discuss it with your teacher."
"Mmm." Ye Yun was a little excited. If he also signed with Shi Wanmeng's agent, would he be able to see her every day?
When it was Shi Wanmeng's turn, she saw Gu Ling come out of the room. Just as Ye Yun had said, Gu Ling was dressed up beautifully with exquisite makeup, like a noble swan.
Gu Ling brushed past Shi Wanmeng without saying a word, only nodding slightly before leaving.
"Why is she like this?" Xiao hope was a little unhappy to see her like this.
"Don't talk too much," Chi Yun quickly reminded her, then said to Shi Wanmeng, "Let's go in together, don't be nervous."
Upon entering the room, Chi Yun and Xiao hope stood by the door in the staff area to wait, while Shi Wanmeng walked straight to the front, where the director, screenwriter, and producer were sitting in a row.
The director of this TV series, He Ping, and the screenwriter, Wenwen, are a long-time collaborator, having worked together on many TV productions and created several high-quality works. This series has been highly anticipated by the industry since its inception.
During her first formal audition, Shi Wanmeng was not nervous at all and gave a confident self-introduction. The director, who was initially a little tired, was immediately impressed. Her professional yet casual outfit perfectly captured Anru's fresh start in the workplace.
He had met many seasoned actors that morning, but none of them could touch his heart. He always felt something was missing. Was it the costumes? Director He pondered.
A hint of appreciation flashed in the screenwriter Wenwen's eyes as she smiled and said, "Then I'll pick a section from the script I gave you before. You can act out the scene where you're gossiping with the senior employees in the break room, and we'll have our assistant act it out with you."
Shi Wanmeng nodded and smiled at the performance assistants who came over: "Thank you for your help."
He lowered his head for a moment to gather his thoughts, and when he raised his head again, his entire aura had changed.
