Chapter 232: An Amazing Drama
“Ling Sheng!” Gu Shen kicked the chair angrily and glared at her back. “Just you wait. I’ll make Third Uncle see your true colors.”
Third Aunt?
She would see whether she was worthy!
A venomous woman with a venomous heart wanted to seduce Third Uncle? She could dream on!
Auntie Nangong’s new brand endors.e.m.e.nt deal should have been Xin Xin’s. Last weekend, he had met Auntie Nangong with Xin Xin and the duo had had a very good chat.
Xin Xin had also thought that the endors.e.m.e.nt was a done deal. However, news had suddenly spread that the amba.s.sador had been confirmed. An industry insider had revealed that it was Ling Sheng.
After his earlier question, she had admitted that she was the amba.s.sador. The only person who could make Auntie Nangong change her mind at the last minute was Third Uncle. That stinky woman must have bewitched Third Uncle and gotten the endors.e.m.e.nt.
He did not know if Auntie Nangong was crazy, but even if Third Uncle was with her, he should not have been looking for a low-tier star who was plagued by scandals. Wasn’t Auntie afraid of ruining her carefully-made brand?
He would look for Third Uncle and Auntie Nangong. He would definitely not let her be the amba.s.sador and ruin Auntie Nangong’s efforts.
No matter how strict the director was, Ling Sheng’s acting skills would make him see her in a different light.
There were no fixed themes during the audition. The director had a random draw for an impromptu performance, and she got a fighting scene.
While the female lead was sleeping, she was attacked by the culprit and a thrilling fight unfolded in the bedroom.
“Ling Sheng, choose another scene!” Director Zhang Zongmin said casually. Since the female lead had been decided internally, this was just a formality.
Fighting scenes were the most important scenes in television dramas. Whether a fighting scene was good or not could also prove the quality of a drama. However, how many dramas nowadays could really depict fights?
The actors were like ancestors that had to be treated well. They could not suffer even a little bit. The fighting scenes were basically done by someone else on behalf of the actors. Even if they wanted to act, without a foundation in martial arts, it would be inappropriate. In the end, they would have to hire a subst.i.tute.
However, fighting scenes also tested one’s acting skills the most. One needed to control one’s actions and expression accurately. If one acted well, one would definitely be in the director’s good books.
“Director Zhang, let me try.” Ling Sheng smiled politely and humbly as she asked, “Can I get someone to cooperate with me?”
Zhang Zongmin nodded. He looked around, wanting to find a suitable person for her. However, Ling Sheng had already chosen one. She smiled at him and said, “Director Zhang, I think this big brother is quite nice.”
When Zhang Zongmin saw him, he thought to himself, How could he not be good? He was the martial arts director. He gave a few instructions and shot his brother a look. Don’t hurt the young lady. Just cooperate with her.
Upon watching the subsequent performance, even Zhang Zongmin, who had watched countless big scenes, was stunned. The girl in front of him was a martial artist.
She woke up, opened her eyes, and gained clarity of mind. Then, she jumped up and quickly understood the situation in front of her. Her actions were agile as she fought with the criminal.
In a short while, the duo had already exchanged a few blows. She neatly grabbed the criminal’s arms, pinned him from the back, and handcuffed him.
The martial arts director had not expected the girl to know real martial arts. When he was distracted for a moment, he was cuffed. His eyes burned with pa.s.sion.
This lady was not bad. Not bad, not bad.
He had been in the industry for many years, but it had been a long time since he had seen an actor act in a real fighting scene. Everyone used a subst.i.tute.
“Director Zhang.” Ling Sheng smiled shyly and looked at Zhang Zongmin.
“Not bad.” Zhang Zongmin looked at the girl in front of him and could not help but nod. He was full of admiration, as though he had seen a thoroughbred horse.
