Huayu: Just entered the industry, and was pursued by a young actress.

Ou Hao, who had been very confident in himself, was filled with shock when he saw Zhou Jin's performance.

He had to admit that he was completely outshone by Zhou Jin's acting skills.

"Great! That was an excellent performance!"

A surge of immense joy suddenly flashed in Su Youpeng's eyes. "This sense of brokenness is exactly what I wanted! This is Zhang Yang!"

Upon hearing this, Ou Hao's face turned extremely ugly.

When his performance ended, the director only casually praised him with a "not bad," but now, facing Zhou Jin, the director excitedly uttered so many words of praise.

High judgment.

After calming his excitement, Su Youpeng looked at Zhou Jin and Ou Hao and said, "You two go back and wait for a while. We will officially inform you of the audition results tomorrow."

Ou Hao wasn't stupid; the director's attitude was crystal clear, and he knew he was definitely going to be eliminated.

After all, he was still young and impetuous, and even though he knew he had lost completely, he couldn't bear to lose face.

With a stern face, he didn't even say hello before turning around and pushing the door open to leave.

Su Youpeng glanced at Ou Hao's departing figure, frowned slightly, and remained silent.

Zhou Jin appeared calm and composed, politely bidding farewell to Director Su Youpeng before turning and leaving.

……

The next morning.

Zhou Jin woke up in the hotel bed and picked up her phone to find an unread email lying quietly in her inbox.

Upon opening the message, he found it was a notification from the production team—congratulating him on officially becoming the male lead Zhang Yang in the movie "The Left Ear," and asking him to come to the production team as soon as possible to sign a formal contract.

Zhou Jin was not surprised by this result.

Su Youpeng's attitude was already very clear during yesterday's audition.

The director's final line, "Go back and wait for further notice," was actually a way of giving Ou Hao a final shred of face.

However, the hot-blooded young Ou Hao clearly did not appreciate the director's good intentions and left without even giving him face.

After washing up, Zhou Jin went to the film crew's meeting room and found Su Youpeng.

Su Youpeng then arranged for his assistant to take Zhou Jin through the procedures and sign the contract.

Having been tricked by a contract before, Zhou Jin read the contract very carefully this time, making sure it was correct before signing.

The film salary is 1.2 million.

This was the first time Zhou Jin had signed a contract with such a large sum of money.

It's worth noting that he had previously filmed three movies, and the combined salary for all three didn't amount to this one film.

After signing the contract, Su Youpeng handed the script to Zhou Jin.

Zhou Jin nodded and shared her understanding: "Zhang Yang's inner world is extremely complex. He carries hatred, and in the early stages he is paranoid and even somewhat dark, but deep down he also has a longing for warmth. His sense of redemption and transformation in the later stages are of utmost importance."

Su Youpeng was pleasantly surprised to hear this.

He had initially thought Zhou Jin was just talented and had a sense of fragmentation, but he never expected his analysis of the script to be so profound and insightful.

Su Youpeng called Chen Duling over with satisfaction and said to the two of them, "You two are the male and female leads of this play. If you have time later, you can rehearse a scene together to get a feel for it."

After saying that, Su Youpeng left first because he had to go and prepare.

Chen Duling stood silently in place, her demeanor still aloof, quietly looking at the script in her hands.

Zhou Jin broke the silence and tentatively suggested, "How about we add each other on WeChat? We can discuss and exchange ideas about the script from time to time."

"Okay." Chen Duling nodded gently.

Soon after, the two added each other on WeChat.

Zhou Jin then shared her understanding of Zhang Yang with Chen Duling, and then shared a few of her thoughts on the character "Little Ear".

Hearing Zhou Jin's incisive analysis of Xiao Erduo, a clear look of surprise flashed in Chen Duling's cold eyes.

She hadn't expected Zhou Jin to grasp the female lead's psychology so accurately.

The two discussed the script in depth before saying goodbye, and Zhou Jin also set off to return to the hotel.

……

As soon as Zhou Jin stepped into the hotel lobby, she saw a familiar figure wearing sunglasses and a mask, yet still unable to conceal her graceful figure.

Zhou Jin was momentarily surprised: "Nazha? What are you doing here?"

When Nazha saw Zhou Jin, her eyes lit up immediately. She ran to him with great joy and hugged him tightly.

"Why can't I be here?" Naza said coquettishly, taking off a bit of her mask. "I've been waiting for you here."

Zhou Jin looked around and said in a low voice, "Let's go upstairs and talk first."

It's worth noting that Zhou Jin recently gained immense popularity with "Swords of Legends" and is currently in the spotlight.

As for Gulnazar, she has been popular for several years, and her popularity and fame are far greater than Zhou Jin's.

If they were photographed hugging and kissing in the lobby, it would definitely be headline news tomorrow.

"Mmm." Naza nodded obediently.

She is not actually a woman who likes to take orders or be manipulated.

But for some reason, ever since she fell head over heels in love with Zhou Jin, she has found herself extremely enjoying the strange feeling of being arranged and commanded by him.

Zhou Jin swiped his room card to open the door, and as soon as he pushed the door open, Nazha couldn't wait to jump into his arms.

She wrapped her arms tightly around Zhou Jin's neck and kissed his lips forcefully.

Naza didn't know what it felt like to truly fall in love with someone before, but now she does.

She would miss Zhou Jin madly whenever she couldn't see him, wishing she could be by his side every moment.

She used to despise "love-obsessed" people the most, and firmly believed that she could never be that kind of woman.

But to her utter surprise, once she fell in love, she became more love-struck than anyone else, even putting aside important work and traveling all the way to Hengdian just to see him.

Just as the two were locked in a passionate kiss, Zhou Jin's phone suddenly rang.

The urgent ringing continued for a long time before Nazha reluctantly released Zhou Jin.

Zhou Jin picked up her phone and saw that it was Dilraba calling. She casually pressed the answer button.

"Brother Jin, has Nazha contacted you?" Dilraba's tentative voice came from the other end of the phone.

Hearing this, Naza, who was standing close by, nodded to herself, thinking that she was truly her good sister, still thinking of her even at a time like this.

Before Zhou Jin could even speak, Dilraba quickly added, "Brother Jin, if possible, please don't tell Nazha where you are!"

The sweet smile that had been on Naza's face suddenly froze.

Dilraba originally formed an alliance with her good friend Gulnazar to jointly resist Yang Mi, the "big boss".

But now things have changed. Yang Mi has not only become her good ally, but the two of them are even working together against Zhou Jin...

Now that her "great enemy" has become an "ally," Dilraba secretly doesn't want Gulnazar to get involved anymore.

However, since she had promised Nazha beforehand, she couldn't directly step in to stop it.

Although Nazha doesn't seem very bright, how could she not hear the wariness in Reba's words?

She bit her red lips and glared at her phone, somewhat angrily.

You, Dilraba, you actually played the traitor trick!

I was almost completely winning over Zhou Jin, and this is how you treat your former comrade-in-arms?

Naza immediately recalled the previous two times when Reba and Zhou Jin were "playing ball" and she deliberately called her.

He asked her all sorts of strange and embarrassing questions, making her blush and feel extremely ashamed.

With old and new grudges combined, especially now that Dilraba actually wanted to "betray" her, Nazha immediately became vengeful and decided to take revenge.

A sly glint flashed in her watery eyes as she squatted down and, with a "rip," unzipped her pants.

Caught off guard, Zhou Jin gasped in shock.

"Brother Jin, what's that sound on your end?" Dilraba heard a faint "whooshing" sound coming from the phone and couldn't help but feel a little strange.
