Her manager sighed inwardly. How weird.
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd.
“Shangguan Yinyin is here.” Someone whispered.
“Wow, the competition is a little intense today.”
“That’s right. Shangguan Yinyin has been playing the female lead since she debuted, and her last Millenium Journey was also very popular. She’s very popular.”
!!
“Her acting skills are also very good.”
“She looks determined to win, too.”
“I heard that Shangguan Yinyin pushed several other scripts while waiting for this one. She really cares about this screenwriter.”
Some of them felt their hopes dim as they spoke.
However, no matter how slim it was, one look at Liang Xinran and their confidence would immediately return.
Although Shangguan Yinyin was not early, she drew lots very early and it was soon her turn.
As they watched her walk into the audition room, everyone stopped talking and returned to their scripts and preparations.
Liang Xinran went to the back. When it was her turn, she adjusted her clothes before heading in.
Her manager whispered, “Take it easy. Act like you usually do. Go.”
Liang Xinran walked in. There was no need to be too nervous. As an artiste, she was already used to such scenes.
Below the stage sat several directors and two producers.
This was all a very ordinary image.
After Liang Xinran greeted them and introduced herself, she began to draw lots for the audition.
A dozen highlights from the script would usually be prepared at the audition. The actors would draw on their own and act whatever scene was drawn.
Liang Xinran’s advantage lay in some positive passages. Whether it was such characters or fragments, she often performed better.
However, today, unfortunately she drew a scene where the female lead faced her dying mother and cried.
Fortunately, when Gu Jingyuan helped her sort out the words last night, he emphasized this part.
Gu Jingyuan’s voice was too pleasant, so she focused on this paragraph in her mind.
When she was acting, her tears came without warning. She went from holding back her tears to crying wantonly. A few layers of crying gradually progressed. The directors and producers below the stage nodded repeatedly.
“Xinran, come, fill out this information. Come back tomorrow and we’ll talk.”
“Thank you, thank you.” Liang Xinran understood that she had passed this round.
Tomorrow would probably be another round of scenes and then the final decision would be made.
She had made the list!
She couldn’t help but feel excited. She looked up and saw that Shangguan Yinyin was still sitting beside her. She must have finished filling out the form long ago and hadn’t left, so she had been sitting here.
Does that mean I’m still competing with Shangguan Yinyin?
That alone was enough to make Liang Xinran feel proud. She really did not expect that she would have such a day. Even if she did not win in the end, it would not be a loss this time.
“Hello, Miss Shangguan.” Liang Xinran sat down and politely greeted Shangguan Yinyin before starting to fill in the form.
Shangguan Yinyin indeed had a high chance of winning. Her acting skills had always been good, and her results were excellent.
She frowned slightly when she saw how excited Liang Xinran was.
Even if they passed the preliminaries and entered the final selection tomorrow, no one dared to lower their guard. They were afraid that their opponent would be too strong, and they were also afraid that their opponent would use some background that they did not have.
Liang Xinran was already confident of winning. Could it be that she had already gotten the final result?
Shangguan Yinyin remembered what Yue Xiu had said. She didn’t want her to fight for the role, she wanted her to get the role.
Her eyes immediately widened.
Liang Xinran’s handwriting was not very good. Her dyslexia not only affected her ability to read but also her ability to write. She tried her best to write her words neatly.
Seeing that her competitor was only at this level and that she might not be able to win, Shangguan Yinyin was furious.
“Do you want me to write it for you?” she asked.
“No, I’ll write slowly. I’ll be able to write it eventually,” she said.
Shangguan Yinyin said nothing more.
Liang Xinran finally finished writing. She took a look and was quite satisfied.
She handed it to the worker next to her. “I’ve written it down. You can have it.”
“Put it by the side, please,” the worker said. She hadn’t looked up from compiling a long list of assorted names.
“Can I go, then?”
“Remember to come on time tomorrow,” the worker instructed. “Take care.”
Shangguan Yinyin took out a card that smelled of incense from her bag and wrote something on it. She brought it to her lips, pressed a lip print heavily, found Liang Xinran’s information, and stuffed it in.
“I’ve written mine too. I’ll put it here.” She pressed her information against Liang Xinran’s.
“Alright, take care.” The staff members were so busy that their feet did not touch the ground. The attitude was very polite, but it was also mechanical.
After everyone had auditioned, the staff carried the information over and placed it in front of the different directors.
The information on the female and male leads was placed in front of the executive director and producer. “The information has been gathered. It’s all here.”
“Okay.” The chief producer stood up. “We have to decide on the final candidates tomorrow. We’ll go back and look at the information tonight. Everyone go back and get some rest today. We have a tough fight tomorrow.”
“Okay, see you tomorrow then.”

After Liang Xinran went out, her manager greeted her. “How was it?”
“I can still come over tomorrow!” Liang Xinran laughed very softly.
“Wow, that means at least you passed the preliminary!” The agent couldn’t help but be pleasantly surprised. “I heard that there are only three people left in the preliminary to enter the second round tomorrow.”
“Really?”
Liang Xinran was satisfied.
To be able to achieve such results on her first audition for the female lead role was not bad. A good start was half the battle.
She wanted to share it with Gu Jingyuan and Shi Jin immediately, but when she thought of the other step, wouldn’t she be doomed if she didn’t succeed tomorrow?
Forget it, she would hold it in.
The next day, Liang Xinran arrived at the scene at the given time.
Sure enough, she saw Shangguan Yinyin and another actress named Lihuan Ruoyi.
Lihuan Ruoyi had been extremely popular over the years. However, as she grew older, her popularity had decreased slightly. At present, she was already close to thirty years old.
However, because she had taken good care of herself, she did not look much different from Liang Xinran, who was in her twenties.
Facing two popular and famous female celebrities, the pressure was really extraordinary.
Her manager also calmed down. “Xinran, just do your best.”
“I’ll do my best.” Liang Xinran clenched her fists as a form of encouragement.
