The system was even more shocked: [Did you hit him through the phone? Why did he suddenly change his mind?]
“I can’t tell if this is his rebellious period or whether he has menopause.”
In less than a day, Xi Want s replacement of Zhao Fei was already known by everyone on the Internet. It was also a hot topic of discussion.
The most important task now was to find a new female protagonist for the production team.
This time, she had to be more careful when choosing the female protagonist. She would rather delay the filming time than choose someone like Zhao Fei.
As Xi Wan was the investor, they have to ask her for her opinion regarding the female protagonist.
The director gave Xi Wan a call. “Miss Xi, we’ve recruited a few more female protagonists. The audition starts at noon today. Do you want to come and take a look?”
Xi Wan thought for a moment and said, “Okay.”
After all, this was a television series that she had invested in. She could rest assured if she could check out the choices for the female protagonist herself.
Hence, she took a car to the hotel address that the director had given her. The director and producer were already waiting there.
There were five young girls sitting outside the room. They had all seen the opening ceremony a few days ago, so they knew that Xi Wan, who was here at this time, was the biggest investor of this production team.
This time, the choice for the female protagonist’s choice would mainly be based on Xi Wan’s feelings. As long as it was to her liking, the position of the female protagonist would be secured.
Therefore, all the girls outside wanted to please Xi Wan.
After Xi Wan entered the room, the director immediately gave her the main seat and said, “Miss Xi, those people outside are all new actresses in the entertainment industry. They’re quite popular and their acting skills are not bad. Let’s see who meets your expectations today and let that person play the role of the role of the female protagonist.”
Xi Wan sat down on the chair and said with an imposing manner, “Let them come in in order.’
The producer immediately walked to the door and called the first girl over. The girl entered and introduced herself, saying, “Hello, everyone. My name is Du
Yuan.”
Xi Wan sized Du Yuan up and found that she had a good temperament and was “Alright, let’S try out her acting skills then.”
The producer randomly picked a scene. In order to see Du Yuan’s acting skills better, Xi Wan volunteered, “I’ll act with her.’
The two people in this scene were the female protagonist and a vicious cannon fodder supporting actress. In a sense, it was quite suitable for Xi Wan’s identity.
Xi Wan did not need to prepare much. She simply drank a mouthful of water to moisten her throat and quickly got into the zone.
She put on a fierce look and glared at Du Yuan. “If it weren’t for you, how could he have abandoned me? How could I have ended up in this state today!”
As she spoke, Xi Wan rushed forward and grabbed Du Yuan’s collar fiercely. Her entire body was about to press against her body. “You’re the culprit! How are you going to compensate me?”
Du Yuan was so shocked by Xi Wan that she even forgot her next line.
Xi Wan did not wait for her to say her lines. She let go and said disappointedly, “You can’t make it. I’m not even a professional actress. If you can’t even take on my scenes, how are you going to take on a professional actress’s role?”
Du Yuan’s face turned pale. She tried to plead with Xi Wan, hoping that she would give her another chance but Xi Wan waved her hand and said, “Forget it, you didn’t pass.”
Du Yuan could only clench her teeth and leave.
The producer called a second girl over. “Hello, everyone. My name is Liu Yan.”
This time, the producer chose to play the female protagonist’s inner monologue, so Liu Yan needed to act without any real objects.
Liu Yan held the script and took a few deep breaths. She then looked at the air with her eyes that were full of affection. In the next second, two lines of tears flowed down her face. “Grandma has been taking care of me since I was young. She and I have long become one and cannot be separated. At dawn today, I was suddenly awakened by a nightmare and felt a sharp pain in my heart. At that moment, I knew that Grandma had already left.”
After Liu Yan finished her lines, she clutched her chest as if she was really heartbroken..
