CP is forcing me to have a wife, and the male protagonist asked me who he is

Xie Zhuxin took a deep breath and let go completely.

She relaxed her body, walked up to Director Kong Meng with a calm expression, and bowed slightly.

"Director, I'm done."

The whole place was still eerily quiet, no one spoke.

Everyone turned to look at Director Kong Meng who was sitting on the interview chair with a serious face, silently waiting for his reaction.

Director Kong was silent for a while, then suddenly a smile appeared on his face and he stood up from his chair.

"It's rare. Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer actresses who have their own thoughts on acting and dare to express them."

The tense atmosphere at the scene suddenly relaxed.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Xie Zhuxin also smiled sweetly.

"On impulse, I said some superficial personal opinions. Thank you, the director, for not blaming me for talking too much~"

Director Kong Meng smiled and chatted with her for a long time and asked some personal information.

Before he signaled Xie Zhuxin to leave, he confirmed with the producer Lao Jia that he had left her contact information, as if he was very interested in her.

Xie Zhuxin walked out of the scene, the smile on her face long gone.

Assistant Sister Shen followed quietly, but her face was full of excitement.

"Director Kong seems to be quite satisfied with you~ Are you sure of this role?"

Just now, she was hiding in a corner of the scene watching the audition, not daring to show off her anger during the whole process, and her palms were never sweaty.

Xie Zhuxin smiled and took her bag from Sister Shen without answering.

Just then, the phone in the bag vibrated.

She took out her phone, looked at the name on the caller ID, and finally showed her first sincere smile today.

"Sister Gu Mei, are you back from location scouting in Ontario? Want to get together and chat tonight? No problem!"

……

After a day's work on the set, Director Kong Meng was having dinner and chatting with his partner.

"Lao Kong, there's something I don't understand."

Producer Lao Jia took a sip of wine and suddenly remembered a question he forgot to ask during the day.

"That Xie Zhuxin today, haven't you always looked down on her before? Why did you give her such a thumbs-down during the audition? Do you really want to cast her as the piano girl?"

Kong Meng smiled.

"You think she can't act?"

"What do I know about this performance thing? You are in charge of everything on the set, and I will be responsible for being your big housekeeper."

Lao Jia laughed.

"But looking at her few moves, even though she is not an acting major, I can still feel that she has something. But Lao Kong, don't you always like to use newcomers as actresses?"

That’s a good thing to say.

The actresses in the films directed by Kong Meng in recent years are either old partners who have worked together for many years, or they are pure amateurs with no acting experience at all.

Like Xie Zhuxin, a newbie who has been in the industry for a few years and has gained some popularity but has no film acting experience, he has really never used it.

What's more, Lao Jia knows that Director Kong Meng actually doesn't like actors from TV series, especially actresses.

As for Hou Yize's face, it was nothing to them.

So Lao Jia always felt that today's interview was just a formality, letting Xie Zhuxin come to the director's crew to experience it, and then send her away politely.

But when he saw Kong Meng watching the performance intently during the day, he knew that his old partner was interested.

"Actually, I can't understand this girl either."

Kong Meng smiled and shook his head and said casually.

"Obviously, I have filmed several TV dramas. I have experience and solid skills. Logically speaking, I should have my own acting routine. We all know about TV dramas~

"But when it comes to acting, her acting skills are as simple as a newcomer's. There are some small flaws, and no skills can be seen, but overall she looks very comfortable.

"If I didn't know her experience, I would have thought that she was a very talented new actor, a piece of diamond worth carving out. But now, I can't understand it either..."

If Xie Zhuxin were here to hear Director Kong Meng's speech, I'm afraid he would say that he is too judgmental!

She just lost all her acting-related system cards last night, and she didn't have time to test her current performance status. It was the time when she was least confident in her acting skills.

So during the audition, she didn't use any acting skills at all and relied purely on feeling and basic skills.

Unexpectedly, this turned out to be the most desirable feature in the director's eyes, allowing him to directly overturn his previous stereotypes about her.

but--

"Sister Gu Mei, no matter whether director Kong Meng will give me this role in the end, I don't plan to take it next."

At the same time, Xie Zhuxin was speaking seriously to Gu Mei.

Gu Mei, who had been traveling for more than half a month for her directorial debut, finally returned to Beijing and invited a few friends to have a drink at home.

At this moment, he was lazily sitting on the sofa, holding a glass of red wine.

"To be honest, I'm a little curious why. After all, it's Kong Meng~ If he came to me to act, I might not be able to resist the temptation."

After hearing Xie Zhuxin's words, Gu Mei raised her eyebrows with a smile.

"And I have no restrictions on your film selection. Although you have to play the female lead in my youth film, you also know that your role does not require a pure image.

"So can you please tell me what you couldn't accept about Director Kong's drama?"

Gu Mei's vision is also quite sharp.

At a glance, one can see the resistance hidden under Xie Zhuxin's calm description.

"First of all, I don't like my co-actor. His hands and feet were dirty even during the audition. I can't act with such a person, especially in an intimate scene!"

Xie Zhuxin frowned, not hiding his disgust at all.

“And when I played the piano girl, I felt very uncomfortable.

"Why did she have to be seduced to steal information? Why did she have to be raped in public? Why did she have to beg others to kill her after being violated?

"I can't analyze the specific reason, but it's just that the acting was extremely uncomfortable, so there was no way I could take on this role..."

As Xie Zhuxin talked, she felt a little guilty for no reason.

"Sister Gu Mei, as an actor, am I too unprofessional?"

Gu Mei stared at her steadily and showed a complicated smile.

"Nothing. You are great. You already have the aesthetic quality of an excellent actor."

As Gu Mei spoke, she refilled a glass of wine for Xie Zhuxin.

Then he dropped the topic and started chatting with everyone about the interesting things he did when he went to Ontario to scout locations for a movie.

Everyone was talking, laughing, and drinking happily.

Xie Zhuxin also put all the troubles behind and concentrated on enjoying this rare happy time together.

When the show was over, she was half drunk and was getting up unsteadily, ready to leave with everyone.

Suddenly he was grabbed by his master Gu Mei.

"Xinxin, please walk slowly. Can we talk alone?"

"Okay, Sister Gu Mei. It's been a long time since the two of us drank together..."

With a drunken smile on her face, Xie Zhuxin staggered and followed Gu Mei back to the room.

He was about to get the wine glass, but she stopped him.

"Xie Zhuxin, tell me honestly, did something happen to you?"

Gu Mei changed her relaxed state at the party just now, and her expression became very serious.

"Ah? What's wrong with me?"

Xie Zhuxin was confused.

Gu Mei approached her, gently touched her face with her hand, and calmly uttered a sentence as sharp as a needle.

"Can't you really see how bad your condition is?"
