Master Fu’s Mysterious Darling Wife

Chapter 55: Casting Call

The scope of Shengxuan Entertainment Group’s casting call this time was very wide. It was for all the roles in the drama. There was also no limitation to one’s age, occupation, and identity. As a result, a lot of people participated in the casting call. It could be described as a sea of people.

Shengxuan Entertainment Group’s new drama was adapted from a web novel that was very red-hot on the Internet. It was already exceedingly high profile. Moreover, it was also helmed this time by the industry’s most famous director, Li Liqun. Coupled with the strength of Shengxuan Entertainment Group itself, it attracted a large number of stars, who had their agents make calls to inquire one by one.

Even An Yue, who had won the Best Actress award twice in a row, had let her agent make inquiries about the leading female role. However, as Shengxuan Entertainment Group had stated before, the drama would hire all new people. An Yue could only regretfully dropped it.

Except that as a movie queen, An Yue’s influence was very prominent. Consequently, Shengxuan Entertainment Group invited An Yue out of goodwill to play a role in the drama, which An Yue also readily accepted. It was in fact a mutually beneficial relationship.

Shengxuan Entertainment Group was an established entertainment company, which was obvious from its position within the entertainment industry. It was extremely advantageous to An Yue’s future development to maintain friendly relations with Shengxuan Entertainment Group.

Although the headquarters of Shengxuan Entertainment Group was in the Capital, the venue of the casting call was not at Shengxuan Entertainment Group. Instead, it was in the main hall of the Capital Film Academy. Otherwise regardless of how big Shengxuan Entertainment Group was, it could not accommodate so many people.

“Qinglan, there are already so many people in the Capital’s casting call alone. I’m scared just looking at the crowd,” said Yu Xiaoxuan, standing at the scene of the casting call while she looked at the crowd-filled scene inside. She found it difficult to articulate her nervous mood.

Shen Qinglan wore a pair of sunglasses today. The large sunglasses covered half of her face as she said, “There’s no need to be nervous. You have prepared very well. You will absolutely be fine as long as you follow according to what you have usually prepared for the drama.”

Her voice was still cool without a trace of emotion. But it miraculously brought about the effect of soothing her nerves. Yu Xiaoxuan nodded heavily.

The line was awfully long. It would be quite some time before their turn. So, Yu Xiaoxuan randomly glanced around and found that many people were holding papers in their hands. They seemed to be reciting their lines and some people were memorizing song lyrics. Several people were even touching up their makeup in the mirror.

“Qinglan, you help me take a look. How’s my makeup today? Are there any inadequate areas?” Yu Xiaoxuan tugged at Shen Qinglan’s sleeve and asked nervously.

Shen Qinglan looked at her face carefully and shook her head as she said, “Nothing wrong. It’s perfect.”

Yu Xiaoxuan felt at ease after she had gotten Shen Qinglan’s affirmation.

The first round of the casting call was quite simple. She just had to state the role she wanted to play in the drama, and then perform a talent. As for the content of the talent, it was entirely up to her to decide.

Yu Xiaoxuan was truly clear about her position. She was not even gunning for any of the leading roles. Instead, it was the quick-witted servant girl for the third female character. The role was very consistent with Yu Xiaoxuan’s own temperament.

Before Yu Xiaoxuan did not develop toward this path, so Shen Qinglan also did not realized. After helping her prepare for the casting call these few days, she found that Yu Xiaoxuan was actually incredibly talented in acting. Although it could be said that her acting was a bit exaggerated at present, she was highly intelligent and quite adaptable. If she were to meet with a good agency, Yu Xiaoxuan’s future achievements might not be low.

Furthermore, with her connection, Han Yi for Xiaoxuan would certainly watch over her for a bit. At the very least, as long as Yu Xiaoxuan herself was unwilling, such a situation like casting couch would not happen.

It was also one of the reasons why Shen Qinglan would fully support Yu Xiaoxuan’s foray into the entertainment industry. She had few friends, and she was willing to help them within her means for these few friends.

It was almost an hour before it was Yu Xiaoxuan’s turn. Shen Qinglan stood against the wall with her arms across her chest. She watched Yu Xiaoxuan go in before she turned her gaze away.

All of a sudden, Shen Qinglan sensed that someone was looking at her. With hostility in her eyes, she keenly turned her head, and saw a beautiful girl not far from her.

Seeing that Shen Qinglan had look over, the girl smiled at Shen Qinglan. Shen Qinglan looked away and decided to ignore.

Unexpectedly, the girl actually came over and walked straight to her side. She said, “Hello, my name is Tang Mina. Are you also here for the casting call?”

With her sunglasses acting as a partition, Shen Qinglan could also feel the look of questioning and hostility in Tang Mina’s eyes. Did she think of her as a competitor?

Shen Qinglan thought of this and somewhat resignedly parted her red lips to indifferently spit out two words, “I’m not.”

Then, the hostility in the gaze that fell upon her disappeared. Shen Qinglan was now 100 percent sure that the girl named Tang Mina really regarded her as a competitor.

“Did you come with a friend?” Tang Mina opened her mouth again.

Only this time, Shen Qinglan did not pay attention to her. Tang Mina looked embarrassed and could also see Shen Qinglan’s cold attitude. She returned to where she was seated just now.

In fact, she had already noticed Shen Qinglan the moment she came with Yu Xiaoxuan for Shen Qinglan’s manners were so prominent.

“Qinglan, let’s go.” Yu Xiaoxuan came out from inside and held Shen Qinglan’s arm.

“You passed the initial audition?” Even though it was a question, her tone sounded certain.

Yu Xiaoxuan looked at her in surprise and said, “How did you know? I haven’t even said it yet.”

“I knew from looking at your expression.” Yu Xiaoxuan was a simple person. What was on her mind could be seen just by looking at her face. When Yu Xiaoxuan came out from inside just now, she did not say anything, but her eyes were full of smiles. The corners of her mouth were ticked up so high that it was impossible for her to pretend not to see.
