Zhou Dao held a cigarette between his fingers and puffed out smoke. He didn't like to smoke, but when he was under pressure, he would smoke a cigarette. There was no doubt that he was under a lot of pressure. During this time, his crew had encountered a lot of problems. First, the actress who played Xie Liu, Lin Shanyu, had an accident and was now recovering in the hospital. After that, all kinds of accidents happened one after another, leaving the crew in a terrible state of panic.
Halfway through the filming, the wires suddenly caught fire, and the lights at night flashed endlessly. Everything was a small case. There was also a dream of being strangled by a ghost, and when he woke up, he really found the strangulation marks on his neck. He was so scared that he ran to the temple at dawn to pray. Now, all the doors were locked. No matter what he did, he couldn't pry them open.
Zhou Dao was so stressed that he wanted to pull his hair out. He gritted his teeth and said, "I want to see who is scheming against me."
He knew a few masters in this field, so he would ask them to come and take a look.
Suddenly, there were exclamations one after another.
"F * ck! Great Qinggong! "
Zhou Dao subconsciously looked up and saw a slender figure falling from the sky and landing in front of them. Even the dust on the ground didn't rise. Zhou Dao opened his mouth, and the cigarette that was hanging directly fell out. He couldn't help but curse, and his eyes were fixed.
Was this the legendary Qinggong?
"You, you —"
Li Xiao, who successfully landed, raised her eyebrows and said calmly, "I'm here for an interview, for the fourth female lead."
Zhou Dao said crisply, "Okay, it's you!"
Li Xiao's calm expression was broken. "Wait, don't I need an interview?"
She thought she would need to act for a while, and then see if her acting skills were suitable for the role. Was it so casual? What happened to the strict requirements of the director?
Zhou Dao stepped on the cigarette butt that had just fallen on the ground. "For this role, it's enough to have good skills. Acting skills are not high." As for skills, this girl could easily jump over a ten-meter high wall, so naturally there was no problem. Of course, the main reason was that this was only a fourth female lead, and there weren't many scenes. Her existence was more to make the male lead think about the difference between good and evil. If it was the female lead or the supporting female lead, Zhou Dao would be more attentive.
In any case, if he didn't do a good job, he could just replace him.
Li Xiao blinked. "A few days ago, I was kicked out of the cast because my acting was too bad."
Zhou Dao coughed violently. The corners of his mouth twitched, and he looked at Li Xiao with an expression that said, "Are you serious?"
"Then let's have an interview."
How bad must his acting be to be chased out of the production team!
He took out a script and said, "Come, you play this part."
Li Xiao flipped it open and was overjoyed. Coincidentally, the fourth female lead, Xie Ying, killed her father, Xie Mengxian, and her father's concubine, the Chang Clan. Xie Mengxian was the Cult Master of the Devil Path. His personality was cruel and merciless, and his mood was unstable. Furthermore, he loved beauty. Xie Ying's mother was a peerless beauty when she was young. Later, she was disfigured by her concubine, and her life took a nosedive.
When Xie Ying was still young, she died under the torture of her concubine and her husband's indifference.
For Xie Ying, her impression of her biological mother was very vague. Her memory was only the gentle silhouette of her covering her with a quilt under the candlelight. But for this gentleness, she was willing to avenge her. The script didn't describe this scene too much. Most of it was left to the actors to express themselves.
Li Xiao also carefully read this script. After all, among the scripts sent by Chan Ka-yin, this was the only one that was slightly to her taste. From the script, what kind of person was Xie Ying?
She didn't care about good or evil, or the so-called fame and fortune. She only cared about the Wuxia Dao. After committing the act of killing her father, the shackles of ethics and morality no longer existed on her. When it came to killing her father, she didn't even feel conflicted or hesitant.
Such a person, after killing her own father, what kind of mood would she have?
Li Xiao already had the answer in her heart.
*****
Zhou Sen pointed two extras to Li Xiao. The prop was a wooden sword.
Li Xiao held the wooden sword. She couldn't help but miss the weapon she used in the past. Compared to a sword, she was more comfortable using a stick!
She lowered her eyes and gently stroked the wooden sword. Her temperament suddenly changed, becoming cold. It wasn't cold, but indifferent. This was the expression Li Xiao was best at. Her appearance was too gorgeous, like a blooming peony flower. It made people feel that such an appearance should be pampered in a greenhouse. And this face made it easy for the customers she came in contact with to not believe in her ability. Instead, they felt that she was a swindler.
Over time, Li Xiao got used to putting on this attitude. At least with this attitude, it prevented some customers from picking on her when they met.
The extras in the cast were Cheng Siu-cheng and Cui Yun.
Cheng Siu-cheng took the initiative and didn't follow the script. "You wicked girl! Do you want to offend your superiors? "
His line directly ooc. After all, Xie Mengxian was the leader of the Demon Sect. He really didn't care about the ethics and morals of the Righteous Path.
In the script, when he saw his daughter behead his left and right arms and come with a sword, he felt the anger of being betrayed, but also the joy of having a successor. Therefore, when he saw Xie Mengxian, he only said, "I underestimated you."
Cheng Siu-cheng changed his line, of course, not because he forgot the lines. It was just a line, so how could he forget it? Cheng Siu-cheng just wanted to help his goddess Chan Ka-yin vent her anger. He wanted to trip up the girl in front of him.
In the past, he accidentally offended a small star. No matter how much he apologized, it was useless. At that time, Chan Ka-yin helped him out. From then on, Chan Ka-yin became the goddess in his heart. After knowing that Li Xiao, his stepdaughter, had been causing trouble for his goddess, Cheng Siu-cheng wanted to find an opportunity to trip her up, but he didn't have the chance before. He didn't expect that the director would pick him so coincidentally. If he didn't do something, he would be letting down this fate.
For a newbie like Li Xiao, if he directly changed his line, he would definitely catch her off guard. Anyway, he was just a walk-on. It was normal for him to make mistakes in a moment of nervousness.
"If you put down your sword now, I can still forgive you on account of our father-"
Before he finished speaking, he saw the sword rushing towards his eyes. Its speed was as fast as lightning, making the hair on the back of his neck stand up.
The next moment, the sword brushed past his face. His face felt like it had been scraped by something sharp. It was so painful that he broke out in a cold sweat.
Li Xiao made a gesture of stabbing the two people, then pulled out the sword and put it back into the sheath. The whole process was neat and tidy, like moving clouds and flowing water.
Her expression was calm. She didn't feel the joy of revenge, nor did she feel the complicated entanglement of killing her father. Her tone was indifferent. "Just so-so."
Yes, from this moment on, she lived only for martial arts.
Cheng Siu-cheng's legs went soft, and he sat directly on the ground.
"Good!"
Zhou Sen smiled.
Of course, it was impossible to say that Li Xiao's acting was outstanding. After all, she was just a newbie. No matter how clever she was, her acting couldn't be compared to a professional. But it couldn't be helped that she really grasped the charm of the role. Her acting skills didn't let people fall out of character. Coupled with her skills, the way she drew the sword was simply too cool. He was itching to do it just now. He also didn't think that anyone else in the interview would perform better than Li Xiao.
When Li Xiao heard this, she knew that she had gotten the role. She revealed a faint smile.
Zhou Sen glanced at Cheng Siu-cheng on the ground and frowned slightly. He wasn't a fool. How could he not see that there was something fishy about Cheng Siu-cheng changing his lines? He actually dared to provoke him. Did he really think that he was easy to bully?
After successfully getting the role, Li Xiao was in a good mood. She was happy that she could annoy Chan Ka-yin. As for whether or not Chan Ka-yin and Lê Nam Giệu would suspect her because of her change in personality, Li Xiao didn't care. If they had the ability, they could go find an exorcist!
Zhou Sen directly signed the contract with Li Xiao. When Li Xiao was about to sign it, she suddenly remembered that she had an agent. En, I'll take it back first and ask the agent later.
It was said that the agent was called Ewen. She was a good friend of the original owner's mother. She had other artists under her. Some time ago, one of her artists was invited to go abroad to audition for a role in an international movie, so Ewen went with her. If she was in the country, she wouldn't have let the original owner get kicked out of the movie.
Li Xiao looked at the door that was still closed. She took out a talisman from her pocket and used her wooden sword to pass through the talisman. She walked to the door and quickly chopped at the lock with the wooden sword. It made a sharp sound and a flame flashed.
Zhou Sen almost thought that he was hallucinating. He rubbed his eyes and saw that the flame had disappeared.
"Am I seeing things?" He couldn't help but mutter.
The script clerk next to him murmured, "No, I also saw it."
It was just one strike! The problem that had troubled them for a long time was solved just like that!
After Li Xiao broke the Yin energy that wrapped around the lock, she opened the door and said calmly, "The door is open."
Zhou Sen's mouth twitched. He looked at Li Xiao with a subtle expression. Chan Ka-yin's stepdaughter not only had good martial arts, but also knew how to do this?
Li Xiao said seriously, "It seems that my luck is good."
Zhou Sen, "…"
He believed her nonsense!
****
After the door was opened, the other female stars who were being interviewed hurriedly came in. They didn't think too much about it. They just thought that the staff inside had successfully thought of a way to open the door.
Although Zhou Sen had already decided that it was Li Xiao, he still went through the motions.
Li Xiao returned the wooden sword. Zhou Sen immediately ordered his assistant to put away the wooden sword so that he could take care of it when the time came! He even took the talisman from the sword and stuffed it into his pocket.
The other female stars began to interview in order. Li Xiao lifted her feet and left. This place was too hot. It was better to go back to the car and enjoy the air conditioner. Besides, she had already settled it. There was no need for her to stay here.
In public, Chan Ka-yin didn't ask her about the interview. When she got in the car, she looked at Li Xiao who was resting with her eyes closed. She said softly, "Xiao Xiao, if you don't pass the audition, we can go for another audition. If you like this type of person, I can help you find another one. "
She looked at Li Xiao's cold appearance from beginning to end. She guessed that she had a high chance of failing the audition. Previously, Li Xiao had been so happy that she walked with wind when she passed the audition for a small role. However, with her acting skills, it was normal for her to fail.
"Or I can help you sign up for an acting class during this time. You can learn from those teachers first. There will be more opportunities in the future."
Li Xiao opened her eyes. "That's not necessary. Thank you for your kindness." She emphasized the word 'kindness'.
Chan Ka-yin disagreed and said, "Sharpening the knife won't delay the work of cutting wood."
Li Xiao said, "I have to join the crew as soon as possible. I don't have time to attend your acting class."
