The director's outspoken words made Huo Ke realize that she was definitely in someone else's trap. Someone had changed her question. However, things had already turned out like this. According to An Kai's character, he definitely wouldn't agree to give her another chance.
Hawke smiled at them and held his guitar on the stage without saying a word. An Kai raised his eyebrows in confusion. He naturally did not know what Lu Yunqi had done, but he was no fool. He could tell that something was wrong.
"Hey, what's going on? Could it be that this Huo Ke was tricked by someone? " He poked Lu Yunqi, who was sitting beside him, and asked in confusion.
The person speaking shifted her gaze from Huo Ke to An Kai. She silently shook her head and said, "I'm not too sure either." This involved matters of the past. Therefore, Lu Yunqi didn't want to explain it to An Kai. Instead, he waited in silence, intending to let Huo Ke resolve the matter on her own.
When the impatient An Kai heard his words, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Since that's the case, she can only blame himself for being unlucky." An Kai was not a kind-hearted person. No matter what he said, he had been in this circle for so many years. Naturally, he knew a few ways to deal with him.
It could only be said that this Huo Ke was truly unlucky. She was actually tricked at this critical moment. In fact, it was her bad luck that caused her to blame others.
An Kai opened his mouth, ready to let her leave this place. Unexpectedly, Huo Ke directly stood up and placed his guitar on a chair. Then, he left the examination room without looking back, leaving Lu Yunqi and Ankai with a decisive back.
An Kai didn't expect her to do this at all. Smiling, he said to Lu Yunqi, "I really didn't realize that she had such a personality."
"If someone in the industry didn't have any personality, he would've died long ago." Lu Yunqi said faintly.
"You're right. These past few years, the audience's preferences have been constantly changing, causing them to be unable to figure out which direction to take." There are a lot of young directors who just want to follow the trend, but in reality, this is an inverted situation. What we need is to become a trend, not to blindly chase him. " Ankh smiled and said. He also said that he knew his fate and had a lot of sentiments about life.
However, Lu Yunqi was not in the mood to listen to his words. All of Huo Ke's thoughts were on Huo Ke, who had just left. Her silence just now was filled with a sense of steadiness, as if she did not put this matter in her heart at all. Instead, she said that she had done what she should do here and left afterwards. It was that simple.
On the contrary, Lu Yunqi, who had been full of misgivings, seemed to become somewhat ridiculous. He had used this method to test Huo Ke, not only because she disrespected Huo Ke, but also because she didn't trust her. The smile on Huo Ke's face looked more like a silent mockery now. She seemed to have seen through Lu Yunqi's little trick and was even disdainful of exposing it.
Everything was settled. Ankh approved of Ouyang Xue's performance, as well as Huo Ke's audition having been ruined for her own reasons. Lu Yunqi, without any intention of repenting, said to An Kai, who was sitting beside his, "Now that everyone's audition is over, who's your favorite?"
Lu Yunqi had thought that he would say Ouyang Xue's name without hesitation, but An Kai hesitated for a moment, then he turned to Lu Yunqi and said, "I don't know what to choose anymore."
Hearing him say this, Lu Yunqi asked in puzzlement, "Didn't you say that you thought very highly of Ouyang Xue and thought that she was the fully deserving female lead of your movie?"
"Although I said that just now, I'm still a bit hesitant now. The song that Huo Ke was singing has been echoing in my head. Her voice, appearance, and smile really exist too much." An Kai spread his hands helplessly as he spoke.
Although she had been looking for similarities between Luo Ke and Huo Ke, Lu Yunqi had to admit that Huo Ke was a professional celebrity. Her voice was like an arrow piercing through the wind, bringing with it a carefree and unrestrained air that stirred everyone who heard it.
Ankh, on the other hand, came to appreciate Hoko's performance from the point of view of a director. Although he often told actors to cry, it was undeniable that he had a surprising intuition about acting.
Although Hawke had only sung a simple song before, it contained a lot of things. Expectations for love, aftertaste, bitterness and growth. Huo Ke displayed all of them in a single song, especially when the other person was singing. Her bright eyes seemed to conceal all of her emotions, as if she didn't want to say it out loud.
Unlike Ouyang Xue, Huo Ke's expression was more subtle. She didn't just use a tiny emoji, she used her to infect you, causing you to involuntarily sink into the world she had created. It was also the first time Ankh had met an actress like this, as if you could find all the things you needed from her. Hawke standing there represented countless possibilities.
This discovery made Ankh very excited. He originally did not expect much from these actresses. He just wanted to find someone with similar acting skills, and then he would slowly learn from the rest of the cast. Most celebrities needed exposure, not systematic learning. From their point of view, whether or not their acting skills were good or not, did not matter at all. What was important was that they were able to earn a bit of money.
This was precisely the kind of person Ankh hated the most, so his movies would never start anything. Fresh meat and flowers without acting skills would only look for those with real acting skills. Although he would give in to capital, Ankh never gave in. True art could withstand waiting and the test of time.
"So what was your decision?" Lu Yunqi continued to ask.
"Why don't you tell me your thoughts? Which one of these people do you think is the best?" An Kai threw the question back. His eyes were staring intently at Lu Yunqi, as if he was looking forward to his answer.
"I think very highly of Hawke. Not only did she bring up the topic, but she also has experience in deduction and is very outstanding among these female celebrities." Lu Yunqi said truthfully.
"But she didn't follow the instructions at all." An Kai said silently.
"What we need to examine is this person as a whole, not something that follows the book." Lu Yunqi explained to An Kai.
"Yeah, I understand what you mean, but I also think very highly of Hawke's performance. Whether from an actor's point of view or a singer's perspective, she is very outstanding, and I seem to know why so many people like her. "
"I've decided to leave the female lead to Hawke."
