Huayu: Just started as a stagehand, but the director's comeback system

Fortunately, Jiang Huai had emptied his stomach beforehand. Although he felt a little dizzy on the way back, he was not unconscious.

The others, being seasoned teachers, were as good as ever. Jiang Huai hadn't expected that even in his condition, they would act as if nothing had happened.

The next morning, still feeling a bit of a headache, Jiang Huai simply threw the incessantly ringing alarm clock from his bedside table onto the floor.

After lying in bed for half a day, Jiang Huai reluctantly sat up.

Last night, he mustered his last bit of strength to go to bed, and didn't even take off his clothes all night. In the bathroom, he rubbed his messy hair and threw his shirt, which had a lipstick stain on it, into the washing machine.

Last night, after leaving the restaurant, a few of us went to a karaoke bar and sang some songs. The lipstick stains on our clothes and the note with our phone number in our pockets were left from that time.

However, Jiang Huai threw the note into the trash can as soon as he saw it.

His tastes have become more refined over time. If he hadn't been with his teacher last night, he wouldn't have had anyone drinking with him.

The CD player played "Sunny Day," and Jiang Huai hummed the song as he washed up in the bathroom.

After getting ready, Jiang Huai didn't linger and drove straight to the Beijing Film Academy. To save time, Jiang Huai didn't leave much time and started the first interview this afternoon.

When Jiang Huai arrived at the meeting room arranged by the Beijing Film Academy, there were already quite a few students outside. Although only girls were being interviewed this time, there were still boys watching.

"Oh, Director Jiang!"

Hello, juniors!

"Hello, senior!"

As a director, Jiang Huai may only be known by name to outsiders, but most people in the industry can remember what he looks like, especially the students at the Beijing Film Academy, who almost dug up his background yesterday.

Jiang Huai looked at the student who made way for him, and after entering the conference room, he immediately instructed his assistant to call people in.

According to Jianghuai's requirements, most of the people who came for the audition were new actors. At most, some had acted in TV series, but they were all supporting roles.

Therefore, Jiang Huai did not require these students to have much acting skill; that was just a bonus. The most important thing was their appearance.

"Next up, Jiang Yiyan."

As Jiang Huai's assistant finished speaking, Jiang Yiyan, who was outside the door, wiped the sweat from his palms with a tissue, paused for a moment, and then went inside.

"Hello Director Jiang, I am Jiang Yiyan, a sophomore at Beijing Film Academy. I have acted in the TV series 'Comrade Ge Dingguo's Sunset Years.' This is my resume."

When Jiang Yiyan came in, Jiang Huai had a pretty good impression of her appearance, unlike the previous ones which were all X'd. Jiang Huai gave her a pass in the first round.

"Perform a scene of reuniting with your ex-boyfriend. You still love him, but he refuses to acknowledge your relationship."

Jiang Huai glanced at the interview materials and compared them with those provided by the Beijing Film Academy. He confirmed that the other party had indeed not acted in any movies.

Once everything was confirmed to be in order, the other party was asked to give an impromptu performance.

Hmm... they still retain the simplicity of college students.

The impromptu performance lasted only two minutes, and Jiang Huai simply wrote "average" after the checkmark.

"Alright, we'll wait for your assistant's instructions on what to do next."

"Thank you, Director Jiang. I will work hard to improve myself."

Hearing Jiang Huai's words, Jiang Yiyan knew that she had passed the first round of interviews. Thinking of the expressionless faces of the other students, Jiang Yiyan couldn't help but feel happy.

However, after leaving the meeting room, Jiang Yiyan looked at her two roommates who had gathered around her, and when they asked her questions, she still showed a sad expression.

She wouldn't publicize something that wasn't completely settled yet, otherwise she might easily become a laughing stock.

"It's a real pity, Yan Yan, but you'll definitely be better than that guy surnamed Liu later on."

"Hehe, then I'll take your good wishes."

Jiang Yiyan listened to her roommates' attempts to stir things up, and just smiled slightly. Although she looked down on her two fickle roommates, she also looked down on that mama's girl in her class.

Liu Yifei didn't come this time because she didn't meet the requirements. Jiang Yiyan still remembers her expression at the time; that completely unaffected demeanor was truly disgusting.

After Jiang Yiyan left, there were still about half the people being interviewed outside. After resting for a while, Jiang Huai asked his assistant to continue calling people in.

X, X... to be determined.

After interviewing more than 20 people, most of them were eliminated because their looks did not meet Jiang Huai's standards. There was only one person left outside, but now, apart from Jiang Yiyan who passed, only one person was pending.

"Why haven't you called anyone in yet?"

"Director Jiang, that guy outside isn't from the Beijing Film Academy; he's just a child star."

The female assistant glanced at the last person's interview materials. It clearly stated that the person was currently in high school, but had already decided to apply to the Beijing Film Academy next year. It was best to let Director Jiang decide on this kind of person.

"Fine, let them in."

Jiang Huai glanced at the interview materials. Although they were all minor roles with little screen time, he had acted in movies when he was a child.

In other words, Jiang Huai wanted to see if the other party's experience as a child star made him want to see if they were suitable to sign with a company, or he would just let them leave.

"Hello Director Jiang, my name is Yang Mi, and this is my resume."

Yang Mi didn't introduce herself much and handed over her complete resume directly.

She didn't meet the requirements at all, but she didn't want to miss the interview opportunity that was right in front of her, so she came to try her luck.

"Hmm, are you an adult now?"

Jiang Huai took Yang Mi's interview materials, glanced at them briefly, and put them down. She was quite pretty, but unfortunately, she didn't meet the system's requirements.

"Director Jiang, I will turn 18 this September and take the college entrance exam next year."

Upon hearing Jiang Huai's words, Yang Mi glanced at the red sofa where he was sitting and concluded that she had understood his implication.

If the other party can give her the role, it's not impossible for her to wait until she comes of age. Besides, Jiang Huai is good-looking, so she wouldn't be at a disadvantage.

"Okay, forget about this movie. But my company has recently started an actor business. I wonder if you'd be interested."

Jiang Huai, seeing Yang Mi's eyes darting around, directly stated his purpose in meeting her.

Child stars are definitely easier to train than complete newcomers, and they can also sign the same long-term contracts as newcomers, which is the best of both worlds.

"Director Jiang, can I go home and discuss this with my parents?"

"Okay, Xiao Pei, give her my phone number."

After watching Jiang Huai's assistant save his phone number in her phone, Yang Mi thanked him and left.

The interview was unsuccessful, but an unexpected gain occurred.

Yang Mi couldn't quite explain her current feelings. Regardless, it proved that she was still relatively well-regarded within the industry.

She had heard of Jianghuai's company, but it was a new company, and the only actor they had was Huang Bo from Crazy Stone.

She was unsure how many resources the other party could provide for her.

Saying she was going home to discuss it with her parents was just an excuse, since her family fully supported her entering the entertainment industry, and she could make all the decisions herself afterward.

As you walk out of the Beijing Film Academy's office building, you see pictures of famous graduates of the academy hanging on the walls.

After coming out, Yang Mi looked back at the Beijing Film Academy building. It was really impressive. She also wanted to leave her name there.
