I am a historical film director in the entertainment industry.

Chapter 101 Audition
"Teacher Su Chang, it's your turn."

Su Chang, who was sitting there surrounded by a group of people, heard someone call her name. She immediately stepped out of the crowd and followed the person into the audition room.

"Teacher Su Chang has worked with Director Cheng once, so she will definitely win the lead role."

One actor remarked enviously.

“Yes! If we had also worked with Director Cheng, we would definitely have had a chance to get a role too,” another actor said enviously.

Bai Baihe, filled with jealousy, had chosen the same role as Su Chang: the female lead, Fan Yuan.

If Su Chang gets this role, then she won't have a chance!
She's been reading "Records of the Three Kingdoms" for the past two months, and even hired a history teacher to tutor her. If she fails this time, all her efforts will have been in vain.

Yang Mi secretly observed the interviewees, wondering how many people were vying for the role with her.

She came for the role of the female lead, Fan Yuan, but she wasn't really confident about getting the role. She was happy if she got it, but it didn't matter if she didn't.

With such a positive attitude, her real purpose wasn't actually to get the role of Fan Yuan, but rather to get to know Cheng Sheng.

This is also one of the purposes of the female celebrities who came today.

Many actresses knew that there were very few female roles in "The Yellow Turban Rebellion", but they still came to audition regardless. Their motivation was to leave a deep impression on Cheng Sheng.

Yang Mi actually has no shortage of acting opportunities. She took on two roles this year, one of which was "The Return of the Condor Heroes," in which she played the role of Guo Xiang, though her role wasn't particularly significant.

But the other one is different. "Wang Zhaojun" is a major production by CCTV. She recently beat out top domestic actors such as Li Shuangbing, Fan Shuangbing and Gao Yuanyuan to play the lead role of Wang Zhaojun.

With the Beijing Film Academy entrance exam coming up this year, it's safe to say that this is Yang Mi's busiest year yet.

Therefore, it doesn't matter to her whether she gets a role or not among these actresses.

Hearing the people around her talking about Su Chang, Yang Mi was also very envious.

She started acting at a young age, and was lucky enough to be chosen at the age of 4 to play Princess Xianyi in "Tang Minghuang".

Later, at the age of 5, she played the daughter of Su Can in the Hong Kong film "King of Beggars".

In 1992, she collaborated with Sun Wukong and starred in "Monkey Boy," which won the second prize for children's television series at the 14th "Flying Apsaras Awards."

At the age of 15, Yang Mi sent her photos to Rayli fashion magazine on the advice of her classmates. After being selected by the editors, she became a magazine model.

Before Su Chang starred in the movie "The Great Tang Dynasty", her fame was higher than Su Chang's, and she was a well-known child star in the country.

However, the drama "The Great Tang Dynasty" made Su Chang a top star, and no female star in the industry was not envious, including Yang Mi.

She even fantasized that if she could replace Su Chang as Empress Zhangsun, she could become a top-tier celebrity like Su Chang, and even become a sensation in the country.

Fantasy is good, but she clearly understands that if she wants to gain a foothold in the film industry and become a big star, she still needs someone to support her.

If Cheng Sheng can make Su Chang famous, it means that she can also be made famous, of course, only if Cheng Sheng takes a liking to her.

in the room.

Su Chang stood gracefully not far from Cheng Sheng, Sun Fei, and Yang Ting, and bowed politely, saying, "Hello, three interviewers. My name is Su Chang, and I'm here to audition for the role of Cai Wenji."

Cheng Sheng smiled slightly upon hearing this. He had already spoken with Su Chang on the phone about the role of Cai Wenji, and the role had been decided for Su Chang. Su Chang's audition today was just a formality.

"Changchang, we're old friends, so let's skip the formalities. Tell me about your understanding of the Yellow Turban Rebellion at the end of the Han Dynasty, and what your thoughts are on the character of Cai Wenji?" Cheng Sheng asked.

Although Sun Fei and Yang Ting had only recently joined the studio, they already knew that Su Chang was Cheng Sheng's first leading lady in a film. Under Cheng Sheng's gaze, Su Chang showed no nervousness, slowly recounting the success of her two months of hard work: "The Three Kingdoms..."

As Su Chang recounted the history of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Cheng Sheng and the other two nodded in approval. It seemed that Su Chang had studied history books diligently, otherwise he wouldn't have such a profound understanding.

There were even some materials related to the Yellow Turban Rebellion that Sun Fei and Yang Ting had never heard of, which made them admire Su Chang very much.

You should know that reading history can be a very tedious thing; people without a lot of patience simply can't get through it.

Official histories are all written in classical Chinese; without a certain level of literary cultivation, one cannot even understand the content.

Although I don't know Su Chang's literary cultivation, seeing that she can talk so fluently, I suppose she either has a history teacher or has a high level of literary cultivation.

"Cai Wenji, whose given name was Yan, or some say Cai Zhaoji, was a woman writer from Chenliu County during the late Eastern Han Dynasty. She was the daughter of the writer Cai Yong and was known for her extensive learning and talent, as well as her mastery of music. She was initially married to Wei Zhongdao of Hedong, but Wei Zhongdao died young, and the couple had no children. So Cai Yan returned to her own home..."

The preliminary interview only lasted fifteen minutes, and Su Chang only spoke about the important points, since time was limited.

clap clap!

After Su Chang finished speaking, Cheng Sheng and the other two applauded. Then Sun Fei asked Su Chang to act out Cai Wenji's feelings in the face of the chaotic world.

Su Chang composed herself, her eyes slowly becoming confused and bewildered, perfectly capturing the unease and anxiety a woman feels in turbulent times.

"Okay, Changchang, you can go now. I'll have someone send you the script later."

Cheng Sheng's words implied that the role of Cai Wenji belonged to Su Chang.

Sun Fei and Yang Ting, who were casting directors accompanying Cheng Sheng, did not object, since Su Chang's acting skills had also been recognized by the two of them.

"Thank you, director."

Su Chang smiled happily, then bowed politely before leaving the audition room.

"Next," Cheng Sheng said to his assistant.

"Changchang, did you succeed?"

Upon seeing Su Chang emerge, Jiao Enjun stepped forward and asked.

Su Chang didn't answer. Instead, she glanced at the stares around her, pulled Jiao Enjun aside, and said, "Brother Jiao, I've already got the role, but don't tell anyone about it yet, so as not to affect the other people who come to audition."

Hearing Su Chang's words, Jiao Enjun was also happy for her.

"Changchang, you're really amazing," Jiao Enjun praised.

"Brother Jiao, you'll definitely be able to land the role of Zhao Yun smoothly," Su Chang said with a slight smile, offering encouragement.

Jiao Enjun smiled confidently. He was confident that he could land the role of Zhao Yun, mainly because Zhao Yun didn't have many scenes during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, just a few shots.

As a result, fewer people competed with him for the role, especially no famous artists.

People with even a little bit of fame simply don't think much of the character Zhao Yun.

It's not that Zhao Yun is bad, but he has too few scenes and only one or two lines.
