Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The chat was flooded, and the judges sat up straight.
Ji Xi debuted very early. It was no exaggeration to say that she was once the goddess in the hearts of all the judges present.
Although Ji Xi was lowkey when she made her comeback, the role she played in that year had a big impact. The character knew what she wanted and would do anything for love. Love could make her go through fire and water.
Back then, that role was sensational. Unfortunately, she was too immersed in the role and did the same in real life.
Little Jasmine had a few classic scenes in the movie that were somewhat similar to her character back then. Everyone thought that she would choose one of those scenes and play the role of Little Jasmine. The audience would definitely be excited.
But she didn’t. She chose a very detailed performance.
It wasn’t a crying scene, nor was it an emotional scene. Instead, it was Little Jasmine’s reaction when she first transformed into a human and came to the human world, feeling the five senses, hearing, smell, touch, sight, and taste.
This scene was very difficult to perform. There were no lines to convey her feelings. Everything depended on the actor’s acting.
Except for Ji Xi, no one dared to challenge this part.
In the dressing room, Su Ji had already put on her makeup while Ms. Xie was doing her hair. She had not changed into her costume and was wearing a white top that would not mess up her hair when she changed later.
There was a TV in the room showing what’ on stage, but Su Ji didn’t look at it until Ji Xi went on stage.
At first, no one knew what Ji Xi was holding in her hand, but when she pretended to take a bite, everyone was sure that it was the meat bun that Little Jasmine had tried in the market for the first time.
She was really good at acting. The audience could see that it was her first time feeling the five senses. Everyone who saw her performance seemed to have tasted the meat bun.
It was extremely vivid.
After she finished acting, the netizens were so excited.
The judges kept praising her. Even Hao Gou, who was sharp-tongued, was very gentle this time. He only said that her acting skills were so good that it made Little Jasmine look too experienced.
Ji Xi humbly accepted the feedback.
[ “He found a flaw? Isn’t he just nitpicking?” ]
[ “I think he just doesn’t know how to praise people. He always finds fault with everyone he sees!” ]
[ “Ignore Hao Gou! The goddess is really good at acting!” ]
In fact, Hao Gou did not want to offend so many female celebrities in one go, but he had no choice. He had the image of being sharp-tongued. If he acted like an ordinary judge, they would not have asked him to come at all.
Before Ji Xi left, she glanced at Lu Shang and suddenly knew who the female celebrities were talking about.
Su Ji looked away and sighed. “She’s good.”
Ms. Xie smiled. “But she knows that this role isn’t suitable for her. She can’t take it.”
Su Ji raised her eyebrows and looked at her in the mirror.
Ms. Xie was Ji Xi’s personal makeup artist and was one of the few people Ji Xi could speak to.
“Anyway, now that I know you’re not going for the female lead, it doesn’t matter even if I tell you. She knows very well that besides acting skills, it’s also very important for an actor to take on a role that suits them.”
“Then why did she come? If she doesn’t get selected, it’s inevitable that someone will make sarcastic remarks.” Su Ji raised her hand to stroke the stray hair on her forehead.
“Maybe she wants to practice,” Ms. Xie said. “She wasted her best years and now she wants to go back to it.”
Su Ji did not say anything. Ms. Xie looked at her in the mirror, her heart pounding.
She’s too beautiful…
Next, it was Nan Miaomiao’s turn.
Kou Tang and her roommate, Ningning, also lined up.
Ningning was at the end of the line. “Why don’t I see Su Ji?”
Kou Tang said, “she might be behind us.”
Ningning looked around. “The rest of us are here. Is she the last one? Behind
Kou Tang started to read the script and didn’t reply.
Ningning said, “how arrogant. She doesn’t even need to line up?”
However, at this moment, a burst of laughter from the front desk pulled their attention back.
Opening the curtain and looking outside, Nan Miaomiao blushed and scratched the back of her head.
Lu Shang’s elbow was on the table, smiling.
She had just walked to the center of the stage, and her footsteps were as swift as the wind. However, halfway through, she suddenly recognized Lu Shang from the corner of her eye. He was her judge???
She couldn’t process it in time. She was wearing a long dress and accidentally stepped on the hem of her dress and fell forward. Fortunately, the host was quick to catch her, but the directors and producers still laughed.
How could she have known that Lu Shang had been busy with being the judge of “Qingqiu Tactics”?
This was also the reason why Su Ji bumped into him on set last time.
He wouldn’t give others a low score for Nan Miaomiao, but at least he could guarantee a fair result.
He knew how much Nan Miaomiao wanted this role. He couldn’t give the role to her, but he could be a judge.
Nan Miaomiao stood in the center of the stage.
Everyone was waiting for Ji Xi to reenact the part where Little Jasmine showed her different sides. Ji Xi did not choose it, but Nan Miaomiao did.
In this part, Little Jasmine should be like a 16-or 17 -year-old girl. The actress needed to be carefree. To put it bluntly, she had to pretend to be young and naive.
Nan Miaomiao couldn’t do it at first, but she decided to go all out to get the role.
When she first went on stage, she had made up her mind that no one knew each other anyway, so she could act freely later.
But now…
She had to pretend to be young and naive in front of Lu Shang.?
When she was filming “Legend of Wu Tian”, she was cool!
Lu Shang was the one who was the one chasing after her!
In the dressing room, Su Ji was munching on the sea salt-flavored melon seeds that Dong Xiyou had just sent over.
She pointed at the television and said to Ms. Xie, “she looks good in that outfit.”
However, Ms. Xie did not even look at the television.
By now, Su Ji’s hairstyle was almost done.
With such a face, she actually thought that others were good-looking??
In front of the stage, the lighting and dance were all ready. Nan Miaomiao still couldn’t understand why Lu Shang would be a judge.
Lu Shang looked at her, his fingers lightly intertwined and placed on the tip of his nose.
“Don’t be nervous. I’m looking forward to it..”
