Chapter 440: Chapter 440 The Lazy yet Domineering Nuwa
Director Ma casually replied, "Hmm. No."
He had left from the Gu Family’s place last night, so this question from Gu Pinting was just a pleasantry, and he didn’t pay much attention to it.
But to those actresses’ ears, it was quite shocking.
What? This young girl is already so familiar with such a big director? Even met up last night?
We’re doomed; wouldn’t everyone just become a backdrop for this young girl today?
For a moment, the actresses waiting for the audition were looking at Gu Pinting both enviously and jealously, whispering to each other:
"What’s her background?"
"I’ve found out, her name is Gu Pinting, she just debuted with an ad, she’s a newcomer."
"But her background is huge; she’s the Gu Family’s heiress. We’re not like her; she brings funding into her film shoots!"
"And that’s not all her resources. I heard the original author of this show’s script specifically asked her to audition..."
"Wow, who’s the original author?"
"You don’t know? The original author is ’Shen Ying.’ Shen Ying is a famous playwright; everything she writes becomes a hit. The script for ’Nuwa and Fu Xi’ was written specifically by her for the producer."
"Oh my god, this Gu Family heiress has already secured the big director and the original author, which indirectly means securing the producer. Do we even have a chance?"
"There are chances, cough cough, for roles like the second or third lead..."
Amidst all the lamentations, the auditions officially began.
Since Gu Pinting arrived early, her audition number was near the top, and she quickly went in to audition.
Today, she wore a different outfit, and her skin looked fairer. As soon as she appeared, the assistant director Zhao Jin nodded vigorously, "Not bad, this is good! Nuwa must be beautiful! Dazzling!"
However, Ma Xiaogang frowned, "Didn’t I ask you to audition for the clay figure?"
Clay figure?
This is too insulting.
How could it match her status as an heiress?
Gu Pinting’s eyes reddened with grievance, "Director Ma, please give me a chance, I can definitely play Nuwa well. Didn’t the crew say they’re looking for newcomers this time..."
Ma Xiaogang interrupted her, "We’re looking for newcomers with spiritual energy. Your every move is too stiff. You completely lack the legendary soft yet firm, lazy yet imposing aura of goddess Nuwa."
Gu Pinting was stunned, "Lazy... yet imposing?"
That description, why does it sound a bit like... someone?
She shook her head, feeling dizzy that such an important moment reminded her of Xi Zuzi, that country girl.
"Director Ma, I’m begging you, just give me one chance!"
Gu Pinting was anxious. If she left with her head down to play the clay figure, wouldn’t those actresses outside who envied her just laugh at her?
She couldn’t stand it!
Someone who has been exalted to the clouds can never accept the reality of falling to the ground.
Knowing Ma Xiaogang’s hard heart, she looked at the assistant director Zhao Jin with pitiful eyes, trying to move the man who appreciated her.
Indeed, Zhao Jin wavered and advised, "Director Ma, just follow the queue and let her perform a segment, half a minute won’t take too much time."
With a stern face, Ma Xiaogang agreed.
Gu Pinting was extremely pleased.
As the music played, she performed a well-prepared piece of "Drunken Immortal Dance."
This was specifically instructed by Gu Shiyin.
She hadn’t even gotten the script for this audition, and didn’t know how her aunt knew the scriptwriter would write such a segment, and even said this part was the climax or should definitely impress the director.
She danced her heart out, her dress swirling.
Through a glass door, the actresses couldn’t hide their envy as they looked over.
So much so that even the handsome Xi Langyue approached without anyone noticing.
Instead, it was Gu Pinting, in the middle of an intense dance, who with a spin caught a glimpse of Xi Zuzi approaching the glass door, and immediately danced even harder.
Let the country bumpkin see what a real socialite looks like!
However.
The next second.
Gu Pinting felt something was wrong...
