Transmigrating: I Married the Male Protagonist's Uncle - Chapter 282

Chapter 282: Lucky

The actors who entered the second round of the audition would be sent to another waiting room. Those who were eliminated would go home directly.

There was no limit to the number of people who could be eliminated, and there was also no limit to the number of people who could advance. As long as one’s acting skills were up to standard, they could enter the next round.

As expected, Ling Sheng was the last actor to audition.

Nangong Lengmo, who was an unreliable director, had completely forgotten to add her. The production team behind him did not know that her name was not on the rolling screen.

The first round was a scene test. The actor was given a scene and a theme and was free to act.

The theme Ling Sheng drew was ‘two-faced’.

The time she had was two minutes.

Ling Sheng portrayed a genius violinist. On the outside, she was an elegant, beautiful, and sensible goddess. However, no one knew that a demon was living in her heart.

She had fallen in love with her student and had lured him to her house under the pretense of having a class before killing him.

In the last scene, she played the violin and looked at the dead boy sitting quietly on the sofa with a smile.

In just two minutes, she had to perform another improvisation. It required extremely precise control, intense concentration, and advanced acting skills to show the personality of a two-faced person. However, she had done it.

The whole process was like an extremely short and shocking drama. There were no unnecessary words, only eye contact and body movements that were performed appropriately.

Her smile when she looked at the boy at the end was obviously gentle and loving, but it made one’s hair stand on end.

In order to save time, the next round of auditions started at the same time.

James was the main examiner during the third round. When he passed her, it took him forever to recover from the shock he got from the look she gave him. He shivered when she looked at him. It was terrifying and sickening!

These Chinese actors were just like Mo had said. Although they were supposed to be good actors, they were actually lacking when it came to really performing.

Speaking of that, this applied to all the actors in the world. Not many actors could get into character just by saying they had gotten into character. From the moment they saw the theme, they were only given one minute to think. It was not easy to think of an entire plot in only a minute.

Among the 100-odd actors, other than Sheng Xichen and Fang Hua’s surprising performances, no one else performed well.

There were even some people who were as hysterical as lunatics and acted like crazy while performing. The key factor was that their line delivery was not good enough.

Someone like her, who could interpret a complete scene from start to end to such an extent, could only be considered a genius actress.

“Thank you, Mr. James.” Ling Sheng bowed and thanked him with a smile before she was led to the lounge next door by a staff member.

Upon seeing her leave, James recalled the look in her eyes just now and could not help but shiver. It had been too scary. The judges beside him thought so too.

Ling Sheng had not expected so many people to be eliminated during the first round. More people than she had expected were eliminated, leaving only 18 people to compete with her.

When Luo Xin saw Ling Sheng enter, her eyes narrowed and she sneered in her heart. She had been lucky enough to get through the first round.

She might have entered the audition through the back door, but Chen Mo was a big Hollywood director who had never been influenced by capital. He would definitely not open the back door for someone during this audition. She was sure of that.
