Jiang Xingxing auditioned for several new dramas, but they all failed without any doubt. The reason for rejecting her was the same as in the past, and there was no new meaning. Of course, Jiang Xingxing was used to it, so he did not have a special sense of loss.

Shang Jie saw that she ran out with vitality every morning. Although there was no good news every day, fortunately she was born to be optimistic and was not discouraged.

In the office early in the morning, when Shang Jie held a morning meeting, he asked Linchuan casually: "What good film and television productions are recruiting actors recently?"

Five minutes later, Linchuan came back and told Shang Jie: "There is a novel that is popular online serialized and adapted from the youth idol drama "Sweet Orange", which is recruiting the leading female lead."

"Youth Idol Drama?"

"Yes, telling love stories on university campuses, so the male and female protagonists prefer to use popular idols with high appearance."

"Let the crew send her an audition invitation."

"good."

Linchuan didn't ask much, of course he knew that "she" refers to the young lady in Shang Jie's family.

"Then... need to remind them or directly inform them, do you mean?"

Shang Jie pondered for a moment and said, "No, it's just an audition opportunity."

Linchuan nodded silently. He knew that his boss had always been honest and would never use his power for personal gain. Even if it was just a simple task, he did not act recklessly like the second boss and casually gave out the role of "City of Daylight".

Fortunately, Jiang Xingxing's performance satisfied the director, otherwise, it would be a drama where the capital destroyed the masterpiece.

Two personalities always have their own benefits and shortcomings. When the second personality comes out, it can make people around you feel unprecedentedly relaxed and will not be in a tight state as always as they do with the first personality.

When it comes to execution and decision-making, the first personality is obviously better.

So Jiang Xingxing was very surprised to receive an audition invitation from the crew of "Sweet Orange".

"Sweet Orange" is an adaptation of a popular online novel in recent years. It is based on the university campus and tells the story of a fat girl named Acheng with a 150-pound appearance. She fell in love with the school grass Wen Yiran. In order to make Wen Yiran look at her, she began to lose weight desperately.

In this process, Acheng's childhood sweetheart friend Xia Jie has been accompanying her, helping her out of various ideas, and pursuing the school grass Wen Yiran.

Later, after a series of twists and turns, Acheng entered the workplace and successfully lost weight. He gradually discovered Xia Jie's intentions. He rejected Wen Yiran's final confession and chose to be with Xia Jie.

This is a very old-fashioned love story where an ugly duck turns into a white swan and childhood sweethearts become a success. However, with his fresh brushstrokes and powerful narrative skills, the author still climaxes the whole story. Not only did he become popular on the Internet, but he also sold the copyright of film and television.

The clip of Jiang Xingxing auditioning for the female lead is exactly the scene where A Cheng learned that his senior Wen Yiran had a crushed girl and began to overeat and cry.

When the director assistant of the crew got Jiang Xingxing's information, he carefully looked her. Jiang Xingxing tied the hair on his ears behind his ears, revealing the scars between his forehead.

She doesn't want to hide anymore, she will know in the end anyway.

The assistant also noticed the scar on her face and whispered to her colleagues, "Who stuffed this person in? Isn't it all a shame? Is it still a test of the female lead?"

"I don't know, the director explained it."

"How can I try this face? It's really... Now those who are looking for relationships don't know how to see the actual situation. Everyone is forced to stuff the crew."

The assistant was not polite and said to Jiang Xingxing directly: "Miss Jiang, I'm so embarrassed. Someone has chosen the female lead here."

Jiang Xingxing wandered for a while, but still didn't want to give up, and asked, "Is there any other supporting role?"

"It's gone for the time being. See if there is any change later. In short, you can go back and wait for the notification first."

After saying this, Jiang Xingxing knew that there was probably no chance. She was still quite disappointed when she walked out of the interview hall.

At this time, a woman's voice came from the half-closed door next door.

"No, no, it's too sturdy. You can't act like this. Can't you overeat? Eat, eat hard!"

"Director, it's too self-destructive as you said."

"Yes, it's better to act like this. Why do you have to act like this? The audience won't like it. It looks too ugly."

The director said again: "You are acting. In the play, Acheng is a fat man of 150 pounds. Because of his emotional frustration, he overeats. If you care so much about your screen image, why do you have to come for an interview?"

Jiang Xingxing looked at the room curiously. The coffee table in the room was filled with various colorful snack bags, as well as greasy takeaway packaging bags and coke drinks...

There are several tall and beautiful girls beside the sofa. I think they are all actors who come to interview A Cheng.

Among them is Song Xiaoxiao.

When she was in the drama "Eunuch", Song Xiaoxiao and Jiang Xingxing played palace maids together, and they always used sarcastic words to squeeze her out. Jiang Xingxing didn't bother with her. After the filming was completed, there was no news about Song Xiaoxiao, and she didn't expect to meet her here.

Is she here to audition for A Cheng's role?

The female director said again: "I will give you one last chance to act well for me. If you can't act, leave and don't waste my time."

Song Xiaoxiao was the first to go up. She sat on the sofa, pulled out a tissue and cried for a while, then picked up the potato chip bag and tore it open it. She ate the cherry mouth like a rabbit, and stuttered it in small bites. She had to eat a piece of potato chips in two bites. While eating, she cried with pear blossoms and rain, and looked pitiful.

Jiang Xingxing shook her head, thinking that her acting skills are still so exaggerated.

The female director also shook her head. It seemed that she was extremely disappointed with them because the remaining actors could not satisfy her. She was either too arrogant or too over-acted to grasp the essence of the character.

These girls are really beautiful, but their acting skills are really bad. No, they are not bad, they have no acting skills at all.

"If you really pay attention to your image in this way and cannot let go, you should not be an actor, but should join a girl group."

The female director turned around and left disappointed: "Let's do it today."

When Jiang Xingxing saw her coming out, he quickly stood beside him and made way for a way.

She knew that this female director, whose name was Xu Xiwei, was also an actor before, and had many excellent works, which were typical actors and directors, especially works with youth themes. In recent years, she has directed many good works with reputation.

"Director Xu!"

When she was about to walk out of the door, Jiang Xingxing chased after her and called her: "Hello, Director Xu, I...I'm called Jiang Xingxing, I'm here to audition for the number one female lead."

Xu Xiwei looked at Jiang Xingxing and asked, "Jiang Xingxing, is the one... the one introduced by Assistant Lu?"

Jiang Xingxing didn't react for a moment: "Who..."

"Why didn't you come here just now? It's all over now."

"just……"

"Forget it, I haven't met the right heroine yet. Since you are here, try it."

Xu Xi took Jiang Xing to the set, and the previous actresses had not left yet. When Song Xiaoxiao saw Jiang Xingxing, a trace of contempt appeared in the corner of her eyes. She hugged her hands in front of her chest, and wanted to see how she acted.

Xu Xiwei: "action, start."

Jiang Xingxing was almost instantly involved in the show and rushed into the pile of snacks. She did not sit on the sofa, but sat directly on the ground. She was stunned for a while, her eyes were dull and without focus. Then, she slowly reached out and touched the French fries bag closest to her.

Her fingertips paused for two or three seconds, and a sad and determined look spilled between her eyebrows. She pulled open the packaging bag and began to stuff potato chips into her mouth frantically.

At this time, she didn't cry.

There is no greater sorrow than death in the heart. When people are extremely sad and depressed, they cannot cry.

Acheng has been losing weight for Wen Yiran for a month. During this month, she exercises every day, goes out for six kilometers in the early morning, eats water and boils cabbage every day, does not stick to oil or meat, and wakes up from hunger every morning.

However, after making such efforts, Wen Yiran already had a girl she liked. At this time, the pressure and sadness in her heart were definitely not something that could be released by simple and exaggerated crying.

Therefore, Jiang Xingxing did not cry. She just ate potato chips voraciously, and at the same time grabbed the jerky, shrimp bars, and popcorn on the side... She had forgotten that she was tasting delicious food. She just mechanically stuffed food into her mouth, trying to use these foods to fill her inner emptiness and huge loss.

Director Xu Xiwei observed her expression, and the slightest tremor of muscle tremble, she controlled it with a relaxed and moderate control, very perfect! Very, very perfect!

Xu Xiwei was about to agree, but she didn't expect that Jiang Xingxing suddenly put down the snack bag in her hand. After a few seconds, she ran into the bathroom frantically and began to vomit at the toilet. She put her hand into her throat and really started vomiting!

The girls around were all stunned. They never thought that she could do this level. What kind of fucking magical acting skills is this! Did she not care about her image at all?

Seeing that she was really vomiting, Xu Xiwei quickly said, "Okay, OK, OK, the audition is over."

She asked her assistant to bring a towel and help Jiang Xingxing wipe his swollen eyes. There was still a trace of tears at the corners of her eyes, which was just urinating.

After Xu Xiwei wiped Jiang Xingxing's face, he turned around and said calmly to Song Xiaoxiao and the others: "Now, do you know what a real actor is?"

...

The audition was very successful, and Xu Xiwei almost fell in love with Jiang Xingxing's acting skills at a glance.

"It is easy to get a thousand days, but it is hard to find an ugly one."

When other members of the film crew opposed Jiang Xingxing becoming the heroine, Xu Xiwei said only this sentence and made the final decision.

A Cheng in the play is really not a beautiful girl. On the contrary, she has an inferior mentality due to obesity. This mentality affects her every word and deed. Even if she pretends to be careless, her mood is very sensitive.

Therefore, if the actress who plays A Cheng refuses to let go of herself completely, it will be difficult for her to perform the essence of A Cheng.

The drama is called "Sweet Orange". Although the tone of the whole drama is sweet, it is still mixed with some sour taste.

Acheng's early process of the transformation of the ugly duckling was full of confusion, struggle and pain, which also puts high demands on the actress's acting skills.

As for the scars on Jiang Xingxing's forehead, the early obesity special makeup technique can be completely covered up.

At night, Shang Jie worked overtime until late at night as usual, but when he got home, he found that the living room was brightly lit.

Jiang Xingxing was not asleep yet. She crossed her legs and sat casually on the sofa, holding the line book carefully.

Her back was facing him, and her thin white nightgown outlined her two sunken waistlines. Her back skin was smooth and fair, and she had a pair of butterfly bones, which was very beautiful.

"Nakura, do you know that when I saw him for the first time, I felt the stars in the sky were bright."

"I like someone, so that's how I feel."

...

Is this how I feel when I like someone?

Shang Jie leaned beside the entrance hall and looked at her silently for a long time, feeling his mood was peaceful and distant.
