Transmigrating: I Married the Male Protagonist's Uncle

Chapter 283: Currying Favor

Chapter 283: Currying Favor

Sheng Xichen and Fang Hua had been discussing whether she could pass or not when Ling Sheng walked in. Fang Hua waved at her. “Come here.”

Ling Sheng ran over obediently and sat beside Fang Hua. She smiled and lamented. “My efforts have not been in vain. I didn’t expect to pass the first round. Please guide me, teachers.”

“You’ll have to work hard next.” Fang Hua had more or less guessed the reason she wanted guidance. Among the 20-year-old girls participating, only she and Luo Xin were left.

If nothing went wrong, one of them would definitely stay.

As for them, although they had many competitors, this audition was a good opportunity. To them, acting was just the icing on the cake, so it did not matter if they did not act.

However, these young children needed this opportunity to grow. If they were cast in this drama, it might be a new milestone in their acting career.

Sheng Xichen liked listening to her talk. This was much better advice than saying that one had to be lucky to pass the audition. No one succeeded because of luck. One had to work hard to achieve their goals.

Luo Xin had initially not understood why she had not been treated like Ling Sheng even though she had interacted with Senior Sheng and Teacher Fang Hua before.

Now, she understood. She was just not as thick-skinned as her and she did not know how to curry favor. She would not bother using such a method to please others.

The second round was obviously more difficult than the first. There were 100 additional judges of different ages and nationalities in the audience—all of them strangers. No one knew where the film crew had found them.

Nangong Lengmo was also there. He sat at the front and looked at Ling Sheng before nodding slightly. “Okay, let’s begin!”

Ling Sheng cleared her throat. “I want to portray a lowly woman abandoned by her lover—a woman who’s lost and is unsure where to find love.”

In front of her, someone snapped the clapperboard.

Start.

There was only one line.

Ling Sheng’s eyes started to look blank, and she did not dare look at anything. After searching around for a while, she lowered her eyes and said in a low and hoarse voice, “If you leave, where should I go? What should I do?”

These words could stab one’s heart. Coupled with her voice, minute expressions, expressive eyes, and helpless actions, she could force one to cry.

The spectators below the stage, regardless of their nationality or age, gave a rating one after another. Their eyes reddened as if they had experienced this themselves.

Perhaps some people could not understand what she was saying, but her body language, expression, and voice expressed her emotions. There was no national border to arousing mutual affection.

As expected, Ling Sheng won the second round.

Luo Xin was eliminated. She sat at the resting area by the front desk, looking in the direction of the door and waiting for Ling Sheng to be eliminated. However, she waited for half an hour without seeing her.

“Let’s find out why she hasn’t come out.” Luo Xin did not want to admit that Ling Sheng’s acting skills were better than hers. On what basis could a newbie like her get a role in Director Chen’s movie?

She was not convinced!

How was she worse than Ling Sheng?

Why was she always being crushed by her?

She had been eliminated this time, but Ling Sheng had been selected. How was she meant to redeem her reputation?

Now, everyone knew that she had participated in the audition for Director Chen’s new movie. The fans were still holding a lucky draw that day to cheer her on and wish her success.

As for Ling Sheng, there had been no news of her going to the audition beforehand. If she was chosen, the news would be explosive and would definitely start trending.
