After Director Yang finished speaking, the crowd burst into laughter again.
Shi Qianduo stood in the middle and answered seriously, “In my eyes, I am the siren princess now!”
Director Yang picked up the documents and took a look. “Shi Qianduo?”
“That’s me. ” Shi Qianduo smiled at the crowd. Her smile was pure and sweet.
Director Yang’s eyes brightened. This 19-year-old girl was pure and innocent. Her age and image were very suitable for the simple-minded Qi Ling ‘er. “You may begin,” he said.
Under normal circumstances, the auditioning actresses would act according to the plot. However, Shi Qianduo was not a professional and could not expose her own shortcomings. Hence, she sang a beautiful love song calmly.
Her voice was not bad at all. It belonged to the category of melodious and ethereal, shining like a diamond. Moreover, she had specifically studied music before.
When she finished, everyone laughed and applauded. The producer took the lead and said, “You sang very well, but we’re not having a singing competition today.”
Shi Qianduo’s eyes lit up. “What I’m performing is exactly what the script says. It’s how Qi Ling ‘er looks every time she appears on the shore.” It was a little opportunistic of her to use that part of the script, but it was also because she knew how to hide her shortcomings. Moreover, there were others here today for the audition. If she wanted to stand out, she had to be different.
The producer added, “But I’ve seen your information. You’re not a professional. I’m afraid you won’t even know the most basic positions when the time comes. We don’t have the time to teach someone who doesn’t know anything how to perform..”
“Go back and wait for news from us!” Director Yang suddenly interrupted.
The producer was interrupted by Director Yang and did not dare to continue. Then, Shi Qianduo skipped away and the crowd burst into laughter again.
“Let’s go, then.” After director yang finished speaking, he packed up his documents and got ready to get up.
At this moment, the producer said, “Director Yang, wait a moment. We have another miss Shen Yuxue. She has been filming overseas these days. For your movie, she specially rushed back for the audition. It’s just that her flight was delayed..”
“Guo Cheng, you know I don’t like people who are late. No excuses, please.” After Director Yang finished speaking, he stood up and left. The scriptwriter, Bao Manxi, followed behind him and the two of them chatted as they walked.
Bao Manxi was a career-oriented woman in her forties. “This is Shi Qianduo. She was the one who fit Qi Ling ‘er’s character the most during today’s audition. It’s just that she’s not a professional.. If she can’t act, it’s a pity that she has a pure and innocent temperament..”
“Yes.” Director Yang agreed.
On the other side, Shi Qianduo walked out of the hotel where the interview was held. Across the road, she saw a luxury multipurpose vehicle stop. Then, a girl in white sportswear got out of the car. It was Shen Yuxue’s assistant, Zhu Nan.
Zhu Nan was holding a parasol and helping Shen Yuxue get out of the car with his other hand.
Shen Yuxue had a slender figure, and she was wearing an elegant long dress. Her temperament was outstanding.
Out of Shi Boyong’s three daughters, Shi Qianduo was the most outstanding in terms of appearance. She was as exquisite as a doll, pure and clear.
However, Shen Kaiqi was not inferior either. She was the delicate kind that could attract men’s love, and she was adventurous in bed. Almost no man could withstand such a contrast, at least Tao Zisheng was completely conquered.
As for Shen Yuxue, her looks were slightly worse than her two younger sisters. However, she was a model, so she had a sexy figure and outstanding temperament.
From a distance, Shi Qianduo saw the producer Guo Cheng, who had always been against her, approach her attentively. She did not know what the two of them were talking about, but Shen Yuxue took off her sunglasses with an unhappy expression.
Shi Qianduo did not continue watching the rest. The bus she had been waiting for had arrived. She got on the bus and went back to the Shi family.
At this time, Shi Boyong had yet to get off work. Shen Liuchun had gone to play mahjong with the rich ladies and was not at home.
Just as Shi Qianduo was about to return to her room, Shen Kaiqi came in with a smile and a jewelry box in her hand. “Qianduo, you’re back. I’ve been waiting for you.”
“What’s the matter?” Shi Qianduo walked into the room and said coldly.
“I can’t talk to you if I have nothing to do? Qianduo, we’re sisters!” Shen Kaiqi said weakly.
Shi Qianduo raised her head and looked at her. She smiled slowly, “Sister? What kind of sister stabs the other in the back? I remember the year I took the college entrance examination, you called me in a hurry and said that something had happened to you. When I rushed to the bar, you were being bullied. I helped you block the alcohol and pulled you away, but I thought we could go home. When I opened my eyes, my clothes were in a mess, and Tao Zisheng saw me. What did you say at that time? I heard you say that it was because I was drinking with a man and you couldn’t stop me, so you called Tao Zisheng over. You also said that it was because my mother’s condition worsened that my mood changed.. Later, Tao Zisheng and I had a big fight over this, and there was a barrier between us. I couldn’t explain it, so I was late for my exams the next day. It was with dad’s help that I could go to college..”
