My Wife is My Life!

fic by hiring popular stars.
Instead, they looked for actors with real acting skills.
Therefore, many unknown actors who have appeared in the director’s works have become very popular afterward.

So yes, even if Lin Zhen hadn’t been persuading her to star in this drama, there would still be countless actors who wanted to play in this drama.

Ji Qingqing, who was sitting in the car, touched her nose lightly out of guilt.

Thinking about it, I am indeed quite impudent.

Soon after arriving at the crew, Ji Qingqing sat in the car and contacted Lin Zhen.
It didn’t take long for someone from the crew to show her in.

The crew was currently in the middle of casting for supporting roles.
The director was present at the set and personally checked each applicant one by one.
In the corridor outside the audition room, there were many people sitting and standing.
Ji Qingqing saw quite a few familiar faces.
They were her supporting actors in her last drama.
But when they saw Ji Qingqing, they did not come forward to talk to her.
Instead, they gathered in a group, discussing amongst themselves.

“Eh, isn’t that Ji Qingqing? I heard that she’s about to marry Lu Lixing.
Is she also here to audition?”

The girl who spoke up had partnered with Ji Qingqing in a previous drama.
But because she was a supporting role, there were not many scenes with her and Ji Qingqing and there was little communication between them.

“It seems that she’s indeed here for an audition.”

“Which role does she want to try out?”

“It should be the younger sister of the two female protagonists, right?”

“Younger sister?” The man shook his head, looking at Ji Qingqing with extremely presumptuous eyes.
He shook his head again and added, “I don’t think it’s possible for her.”

“She’s the future Mrs.
Lu and the whole entertainment industry is her playground.
What resources does she lack? A small female lead, how is it impossible?”

Another person from the side commented, “I’m here to audition for the fourth female supporting lead, but you know, the competition is really fierce.
Just for this role, there are not less than six people competing, not to mention for the first female lead.”

“Even if you have a good background, it doesn’t matter for Director Ren – you can only rely on your acting skills to stand out.
I even have a friend in the crew who said that when Shen Weiwei came to the audition, Director Ren was quite satisfied with her performance and wanted to cast her on the spot.”

“You mean, Director Ren was very satisfied with Shen Weiwei? Then Ji Qingqing coming here means…”

“She wants to grab the role.”

“But I personally don’t think that she can grab it.”

“Why not?”

“Director Ren is a person who values acting skills and has a discerning eye.
Since Director Ren is satisfied with Shen Weiwei’s performance, it means that Shen Weiwei’s acting skills have been recognized by him.”

“You haven’t seen Ji Qingqing’s acting skills before in the film set.
She can’t even act adequately without reading the script a few times.”

The person who spoke had a minor role and he was finished after filming a scene.
He had only seen Ji Qingqing’s performance when he first entered the group.

Lin Zhen came out of the room.
She glanced around and finally found Ji Qingqing.
She quickly approached her with a smile on her face.

She patted Ji Qingqing on the shoulder.
“You just came?”

“Sorry, Sister Lin Zhen, I’m late.”

“It’s okay, Director Ren is inside, I’ll take you in.”

So, in a public setting, Ji Qingqing had ‘cut in line’ and was brought into the audition room by Lin Zhen.

Inside the room, the director and several assistant directors of the crew were interviewing actors who were auditioning.
One actress was holding a sofa pillow in her hand, crying and laughing maniacally like a deranged person.

Lin Zhen led Ji Qingqing to one side and whispered, “She’s performing as a mother who had just lost her child.”

I see.

Ji Qingqing sat there and watched the actress’ performance for three minutes in silence.

The semi-bald man with glasses sitting in the middle of the long table pushed his glasses.
After the performance, he nodded and said, “Thanks for the good work.
I’ll let the staff contact you as soon as the results come out.”

The woman who was performing on her knees on the ground took a while to detach herself from her performance earlier.
She wiped her tears with the help of the staff, then bowed to the director before leaving with the staff.

Before a crew member called the next person in, Lin Zhen took the opportunity to take Ji Qingqing to Director Ren.

“Director Ren, this is the person I told you about before – Ji Qingqing.”
