Wang Lei had seen Xia Qingluo's bad play, and immediately retracted his gaze, sighing:

"Indeed, it's not enough to just fit in as a little white flower. The third female character has to turn into a villain with a huge contrast. This requires acting skills."

Seeing Wang Lei searching for the right candidate again, Zhang Kun reminded him in a deep voice, "The investor has already given us someone. There's actually no need to follow the audition process."

Wang Lei glanced at Xu Aoqing, and his facial features wrinkled into a ball.

When other actors audition, they will try their best to dress to fit the role.

Xu Aoqing knew clearly that the third female lead was a white flower, yet she still wore all the famous brands and put on heavy makeup.

Not to mention her acting skills, just based on her attitude, he didn't want to choose Xu Aoqing.

But if there is no investment, his drama will not even be qualified to appear in front of the public...

Wang Lei shook his head, looking dejected, "I'd rather let you be the director."

Twenty minutes later.

Wang Lei, Zhang Kun, and the actors from the crew sat side by side on the judges' table and announced the official start of the audition.

The auditions were conducted in the order of pre-arranged numbers, and the actors went on stage one by one and began their performances.

"You should find a class. The entertainment industry is not for you."

"Your crying is too ugly. Next one."

"I want a villain, not a psychopath. Next one."

Wang Lei watched the performances of more than a dozen people in a row, shook his head at each of them, and gave sharp comments.

Because Wang Lei was too strict, the actors waiting for audition were so nervous that they even forgot their lines.

Xu Aoqing raised her chin slightly, her face full of confidence, and glanced sideways at Xia Qingluo beside her.

Seeing that Xia Qingluo's expression remained calm, Xu Aoqing frowned and snorted in his heart.

I will record Xia Qingluo's audition later and upload it online using a small account, so that netizens can criticize Xia Qingluo to death.

Soon, it was Xu Aoqing's turn.

The third female character is named Su Qimeng. She was originally the daughter of a marquis, but her family was tragically murdered and she became homeless.

Later, it was the master who took Su Qimeng in, taught her the knowledge of coroner, and helped her to settle down and make a living.

The first scene is that the master was killed and Su Qimeng handled the funeral for the master.

Xu Aoqing took a deep breath, knelt in front of the director, and started crying loudly with a "wow".

Wang Lei was startled and instinctively moved his chair back.

Her expression was hideous and distorted as she cried, but she couldn't squeeze out a single tear; her eyes just turned a little red.

"Master...how could that group of people be so cruel as to want to kill us all?"

She even forgot the lines in the script and just improvised.

The scene changes to the day of the funeral.

Xu Aoqing cried and shouted until she finally burst into tears.

Wang Lei's temples twitched wildly and he rubbed his eyebrows. Not only did he cry more unpleasantly than killing a chicken, he also didn't even remember a few lines from the audition.

In the second scene, she played a villain.

Although the face is Su Qimeng, the current Su Qimeng's face has been replaced by the villain.

When playing a villain, you naturally have to act a little crazier.

Xu Aoqing threw things, screamed and scratched her head, acting like a madman.

After the performance, the actors all applauded, "Teacher Xu performed very well."

Xia Wan'er nodded slightly and praised hypocritically: "The crying scene was well acted, very immersive."

Yu Hong, who plays the leading male role, sits on the judges' panel.

He has fair skin, short black hair that shines slightly in the sun, big, bright eyes, and a gentle temperament like jade, with the gentleness of a brother next door.

However, seeing the reactions of the people around him, Yu Hong couldn't help but frown, and the boy's refreshing sunshine was replaced by coldness.

Yu Hong debuted as a child star and has acted in many dramas since he was young. He has been working in the entertainment industry for many years and has seen a lot of people and things.

Xu Aoqing's acting is so bad that she can't bear to watch. She doesn't look like she's crying or laughing, and her character is ruined.

But looking at the flattering looks of the people around her, it is not difficult to guess that Xu Aoqing is from the investor.

The entertainment industry is like this now, with investors everywhere trying to fill in the cast, and a drama is entirely supported by investment.

People on the internet are scolding the actors for their poor acting and saying that bad dramas seem to be mass-produced, but in reality, the directors and actors who take their acting seriously have their own grievances but cannot speak out.

Xia Qingluo's expression, which had been calm all along, now slightly pursed her lips, with an indescribable look on her face.

Xu Aoqing's acting is so bad, why doesn't she just stay as a member of her girl group? Instead, she has to switch to the entertainment industry. Isn't this just asking for trouble?

Assistant Director Zhang Kun applauded and praised, "I didn't expect you to be so talented in acting. You acted well!"

Seeing Wang Lei's cold attitude, Zhang Kun kicked him lightly under the table and whispered, "Give me some reaction."

Wang Lei's face was frozen. He was filming a movie, not an actor. Why did they want him to act?

Wang Lei was reluctant and responded calmly: "It can be used as a backup."

Zhang Kun frowned slightly, secretly sighing that Wang Lei was really aloof and didn't know the rules.

This is the best time to please the investors, but Wang Lei is still going against it.

Xu Aoqing was happy. The financial sponsor behind her might invest more money in the crew, and the filming effect would be better.

Xu Aoqing listened to Wang Lei's comments, clasped her arms across her chest, and pouted slightly.

She acted so well, why is she still a backup?

Forget it, she is a magnanimous person and does not bear grudges. Anyway, this role can only be hers.

An hour later, Wang Lei still hadn't seen any actors he was satisfied with, and his face had become so dark that it looked as if ink could drip from it.

Would it be possible that the good script he worked so hard to write would be ruined by the third female lead?

"Hello everyone, I am Xia Qingluo..."

When Wang Lei heard the clear voice, he immediately withdrew his thoughts and looked up at Xia Qingluo.

Yu Hong was also exhausted. He rubbed his brows and saw that Xia Qingluo was the last actor to audition, and disappointment appeared in his eyes.

He originally thought that this was a good script and that he might become famous because of this play.

But the investors' insertion of such people really ruined this good drama.

Xu Aoqing waved to her assistant, her eyes sparkling with excitement, "Help me record her audition and post it online using my secondary account."

After Xia Qingluo gave a brief self-introduction, he picked up the basket of props and put it on his back.

The moment she raised her eyes, her bright and charming face was instantly filled with a smile, pure and bright, and full of radiance.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, as if they saw Su Qimeng standing right in front of them.

She is worthy of being the white moonlight that the male protagonist has been looking for for more than ten years. Who can not be attracted by this smile?

Xia Qingluo trotted into the house, her beautiful eyes full of excitement, "Master, I got a big order today and made a lot of money. We'll have meat to eat tonight!"

Wang Lei clenched his hands unconsciously.

In just a few seconds, Xia Qingluo established Su Qimeng's character.

In ancient times, coroners had no status. Because they always dealt with corpses, they were often discriminated against and had a hard life.

Although Su Qimeng is a member of the lower class, she remains neither humble nor arrogant and is a strong girl.

Could it be that Xia Qingluo is really not the vase as rumored on the Internet?

Xia Qingluo walked into the door and paused.

At this time, Su Qimeng saw his master died tragically in the house.

Xia Qingluo's pupils kept shrinking, her legs unconsciously softened, and she fell to her knees on the ground, her eyes full of helplessness.

"Master, you have taught me all my life to repay evil with kindness, so why won't the evil in this world let you go?"

Xia Qingluo knelt forward and held his master's hand, tears welling up in his eyes but he held them back. His voice was choked with sobs as he looked up at the sky.

"My disciple... will avenge you and make those murderers pay with blood."

Wang Lei clasped his hands together, his eyes shining.

He must have found a treasure!
