Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The audition was carried out in one of the largest artist training rooms at Zhiya Entertainment. In the s.p.a.cious training room, many people gathered at this time.
The executive director of the film and television department of Zhiya Entertainment, Mr. Kong, and the director and producer of the film had already taken their seats. Now, they were only waiting for the screenwriter of the film and the author of the original novel “Wonderland,” Ling Tianya.
The roles being auditioned for today were all female characters, so at this moment the training room was full of female actresses. Guan Meiyi sat in the corner and tried not to avoid being noticed. But even so, some people still spotted her, especially Shan Feifei, who saw Guan Meiyi and walked towards her with a few of the other actresses.
“Hey, everyone. Come and look! Who do we have here? Isn’t it our award-winning female star Guan Meiyi!” Shan Feifei’s words were full of sarcasm, and they were followed by a wave of mocking laughter.
Director Kong and the others looked over, but he ignored it after noticing it was just some teasing between the actresses. Because Guan Meiyi was the target of the heckling, he couldn’t have cared less.
Facing their ridicule, Guan Meiyi did not fight back. She stared into the ground with a focused look, going over the scenes she was going to read in her head.
When she saw that Guan Meiyi was ignoring her, Shan Feifei was furious. She called over another bystander, Miss Pan. “Miss Pan, come here!”
Shan Feifei was the biggest cash cow for Zhiya Entertainment at the moment, so Miss Pan did not dare to offend her. She rushed over. “Feifei, what’s up?”
Shan Feifei pointed at Guan Meiyi. “Why is this woman here? How could she possibly have the gall to audition? What does she want to play? There are no roles for a prost.i.tute in this film!”
Because of Guan Meiyi, Miss Pan had been yelled at in the public, which had made her extremely unhappy. Immediately, she glared at Guan Meiyi. “What are you doing here? I did not notify you! Are you trying to be your own agent now?”
Guan Meiyi looked at Miss Pan and Shan Feifei with great indifference. “This is a public audition. Every entertainer of Zhiya Entertainment has a chance. Why can’t I come?”
Guan Meiyi’s words shoved Miss Pan’s foot in her mouth. Guan Meiyi was indeed an entertainer of Zhiya Entertainment. She was indeed qualified to audition.
Shan Feifei heard that and snorted. “So what if you are here? Those little supporting roles have already been handed out. You have no chance. You are only here to humiliate yourself!”
“That is my business, so don’t you worry!” Guan Meiyi replied coldly.
Now that Guan Meiyi dared to confront her in public, Shan Feifei suddenly felt that she had lost face. She pointed a finger at Guan Meiyi and scoffed. “Well, I will wait to see how you humiliate yourself!”
After that, Shan Feifei and her entourage went back to their original seats and sat down.
Miss Pan stared at Guan Meiyi and warned her, “You better behave yourself, I’m warning you. If anything goes wrong today, beware that I won’t spare you!”
After everyone walked away, Guan Meiyi lowered her head again and whispered silently, “Tianya, I hope I won’t let you down.”
The director looked up at the clock hanging on the wall, and his brows furrowed together. “It’s time. Where is Miss Ling?”
“Mr. Qian went outside to get her. Why haven’t we gotten an update yet?”
Then, the door of the training room opened. The yellow-haired figure rushed in first and whispered something into the ear of the director.
Director Kong’s eyes suddenly opened wide. “What? Ruan Zeyan is here?”
