Young Master Qin Keeps Coveting Me After I Beat Him Up

Chapter 495 - 495 Jiang Xun Was Very Genuine

495 Jiang Xun Was Very Genuine

“Su Youlan’s… It couldn’t be said that her performance wasn’t good. She was very good at expressing herself on camera. However, it feels like she’s too expressive, as if she’s afraid that the audience can’t see the character’s emotions,” Yiwu said. “It’s a little too superficial.”

Mingguan nodded. “I also think that she’s not in the right state this time. She has been acting for so long and has a lot of acting experience. She shouldn’t have made such a mistake.”

“Let’s take a look at the next one.” Ji Cheng flipped to the next resume. “Jiang Xun? I’m actually quite interested in her performance.”

“Oh?” Yiwu laughed and said, “I have some impression of Jiang Xun. She acted pretty well in ‘Paht of Life’ and ‘Hell on Earth,’ but she has never acted in a movie before. Why are you interested in her?”

!!

“When I was having dinner with Deng Xu and Zhang Kangwang a while ago, I heard them talking about Jiang Xun, and both of them strongly recommended her and said a lot of good things about her.” Ji Cheng smiled and shook his head helplessly. “Deng Xu and Zhang Kangwang don’t praise people easily, but this time, they complimented Jiang Xun very well. Deng Xu said that Jiang Xun’s acting skills were good, but the key was that her acting skills were spiritual. Although she had not gone through any systematic learning, she had talent, which was a rare and valuable part of her. Acting skills are like a piece of unpolished jade. They keep improving over and over again, but they still aren’t carved by a sculptor.”

“He also told me that he was the one who recommended her for Chen Zilong’s ‘Hell on Earth.’ And for Guo Haolun’s ‘Path of Life,’ Chen Zilong strongly recommended Jiang Xun to him.” Ji Cheng smiled and shook his head. “I’m thinking that Jiang Xun’s performance is indeed outstanding since the directors who have worked with her before are so satisfied and are willing to recommend her to the directors they are familiar with.”

“Although Zhang Kangwang has never worked with Jiang Xun before, the two of them have filmed the popular slow variety show, ‘Rural Distant’ together. He said that Jiang Xun was a person who could bear hardships, was not squeamish, and did things silently without stealing the limelight. This shows that Jiang Xun is a down-to-earth and not impetuous person, which is also an important point to achieve a good performance. Besides, I think this is quite in line with Luo Niannian’s character.”

What Ji Cheng didn’t say was that he felt that Youlan was quite an impetuous person.

That’s right. She became famous at a young age and had a smooth journey. The outside world had given her praise that exceeded her achievements and strength.

Growing up in such an environment from a young age, it was normal for her to become impetuous. It would be more unusual for her to not turn out like that.

But then again, Jiang Xun didn’t mention the Jiang family behind her. After all, it was said that her relationship with Chengye wasn’t very good.

She had Mufeng’s support, but she could still maintain her down-to-earth character. She calmed down to perform and did not do anything unnecessary. This was already very rare.

However, he had only heard it from Deng Xu and Kangwang.

He still had to see it with his own eyes.

However, Deng Xu and Kangwang’s high evaluation of Jiang Xun still made Ji Cheng have a good impression of her even before he met her.

Jiang Xun was in the lounge. Seeing that Youlan had returned, Youlan didn’t come to look for Jiang Xun this time and found a seat.

Qiyao pouted. “She must be staying to see the results of your audition.”

At this time, a staff member came over and asked Jiang Xun to go for the audition.

Jiang Xun entered the audition room.

Jiang Xun had only met Mingguan before. Mingguan smiled and introduced her, “Little Jiang, this is Sun Yiwu, Director Sun. The person beside him is Ji Cheng, Director Ji. For ‘Under The Starry Sky,’ the three of us are in charge of three different units. These three units form the movie.”

“That’s why the three of us are holding the audition together today,” Mingguan explained.

Jiang Xun nodded, indicating that she understood. “I’ve seen Director Sun and Director Ji’s movies.”

“Hahaha!” Yiwu wanted to see if Jiang Xun was just being polite, so he asked, “Which of our films have you watch?”

“I watched ‘Greedy Wolf Operation’ by Director Sun.” Jiang Xun said.

When Yiwu heard this, his smile actually faded a little.

Greedy Wolf Operation had indeed pushed him to the peak of the Chinese film industry, allowing him to enter the ranks of the top directors in the country.

Since then, the movies he directed had become a guarantee of reputation.

It was also because of “Greedy Wolf Operation” that he had obtained the rights to distribute the tribute film, “Under The Starry Sky.”

However, “Greedy Wolf Operation’s” popularity was just too high, and anyone could tell that it was his movie.

Even if one had never watched it, one could know the movie’s content on the internet and explain it to others.

“Because of ‘Greedy Wolf Operation,’ I went to watch a few movies that you have directed before. I watched ‘Shouting at the Mountain’ and ‘Time of the Eclipse,’ but I prefer ‘Time of the Eclipse.’ It’s not easy to fall asleep because disaster films are exciting. ‘Shouting at the Mountain’ is a literary film, and I haven’t had the time to calm down and appreciate it. I haven’t had the time to watch the other two.”

This time, Yiwu was really surprised.

“You’ve actually seen so much?” Yiwu was shocked, and a smile reappeared on his face. He was even more sincere and smiling wider than when he first met Jiang Xun.

“I wanted to take a look at your directing style.” Jiang Xun nodded. “One of the units in ‘Under The Starry Sky’ will be directed by you. Although the role of Luo Niannian that I auditioned for is not in your unit, I was still quite curious.”

“Then what about mine? You said you’ve seen mine,” Ji Cheng hurriedly asked.

“I’ve watched ‘Red Tiger’ and ‘Black Gold.’ It’s your usual style,” Jiang Xun said. “But I’m just curious. Do you have some kind of OCD when it comes to color and word count? One is black and one is red, and they’re both two words.”

Ji Cheng slapped his thigh. “I really want to make it into a series.”

“Alright, alright. Let’s have a good chat after the audition,” Mingguan said with a helpless smile. “If Little Jiang is successful in the audition and joins the crew, she’ll have more opportunities to chat with you guys. Let’s have the audition first today.”

“Yes, yes, yes, the audition is more important,” Ji Cheng laughed as he flipped open the script. “Let’s get down to business first.”

Originally, because of Deng Xu and Kangwang’s recommendation, Ji Cheng had a very good impression of Jiang Xun.

After chatting with Jiang Xun, he felt that Jiang Xun was very genuine.

When she said that she had seen his and Yiwu’s movies, she was not just trying to get close to them and say some nice things.

She really went to take a look.

Even though he didn’t finish watching the entire movie, this was normal.

Even for movie fans, there were very few people who could finish watching a director’s movie.

Moreover, Jiang Xun had to go to class and work.

It was rare for her to take the time to see so much.

Moreover, if she liked it, she liked it. If she didn’t like it, she didn’t like it. She didn’t try to curry favor with people.

Ji Cheng had had enough of all those fake faces in the entertainment industry and liked this kind of straightforward people.
