Chapter 222 Movie Scripts and Drugs

The film screening ended in a peaceful atmosphere. Everyone said hello to each other and went back to the makeup artist's room to remove their makeup. Ji Xia returned to the dressing room thoughtfully, and when she opened the door, she saw the person she loved standing inside.

"Why are you here?" Her voice was full of coquettishness.

"I wanted to pick you up from get off work, so I came early. Are you tired today?" He naturally took the girl's hand, asked Xia Xia to sit down and rest, and then carefully took off the jewelry on her head. His hands and feet were so nimble as if he had done it many times.

"It's okay, it's just that some of the media asked very stupid questions, and I'm hungry." As he spoke, he felt his stomach was extremely empty.

"I brought you some wontons. You can eat them first." Jiang Qingyan looked at the girl with heartache.

The stylist standing next to them was almost blinded by the lights and thought to himself: What is said on the Internet is indeed true, these two are so sweet.

"I'll go change my clothes first and take them to the stylist so that they don't have to wait." Ji Xia hurried in to change clothes.

The stylist left the dressing room with her things and couldn't wait to take out her phone to gossip with her friends:

Guess what I saw today?

[What's the latest gossip? Curious]

[Quickly say]

[Today I was in charge of Ji Xia's makeup. She's gorgeous! I can only describe her face as "awesome." And after we finished, Jiang Qingyan showed up. They were so sweet! I was completely blown away. What they said online was absolutely true.]

[Is this true? I'm currently watching Liu Li Yan, the acting is excellent.]

[Where's Jiang Qingyan? Is he handsome?]

[So handsome, goes really well with Xia Xia]

……

Ji Xia and Jiang Qingyan arrived home in a flash. A feast of herbs was already prepared on the table. Ji Xia, who was on a diet, felt uneasy when he saw all the green things.

Jiang Qingyan doesn't eat vegetables, so he simply eats wontons on the side.

Ji Xia was eating grass in grief and anger while talking about some interesting things that happened at the scene today. Jiang Qingyan listened carefully, but was thinking about how to start the conversation.

Seeing Xia Xia put down her chopsticks, Jiang Qingyan sat up straight and said with a slightly serious expression: "Song Jinhuan came to see me today. He is Song Yurou's second brother." Jiang Qingyan was worried that Xia Xia could not remember who this person was, so he added one more sentence.

Ji Xia's expression instantly turned gloomy, and she asked directly: "Are your two companies collaborating?"

"He's not worthy yet." Jiang Qingyan briefly recounted what happened today, then expressed his concerns: "I'm worried that he'll threaten me and harm you later."

Ji Xia didn't expect that there would be such a shameless person in the world. She had already made it clear that she would not have anything to do with the Song family, but he still had the nerve to look for her boyfriend?

She knew in her heart that the novel didn't describe Song Jinhuan much, but he was definitely not a good person. She immediately sent a message to Brother Qiang, "Brother Qiang, are there any retired brothers of yours who are still unemployed? I need to find another bodyguard."

Brother Qiang's strong physique and skilled fighting skills make people feel at ease when looking at him.

She suddenly thought of something and turned to ask her boyfriend, "Did Song Jinhuan also ask questions about my background?"

Jiang Qingyan was shocked by the other party's sharp alertness, so he had no choice but to tell Song Jinhuan everything he said.

Ji Xia laughed at himself: "Talking about twins, how interesting. Yanyan, I'll tell you the truth about my attitude. Song Yurou and I were taken away by mistake, and we are not some broken twins. But I don't want to go back. I only have one pair of parents.

Song Yurou likes to stay in the so-called wealthy family, so give it to her."

Jiang Qingyan didn't say anything, because this was similar to what he had guessed. He just silently reached out and touched the girl, giving her a comforting hug.

Tonight belongs to Liuli Yang. A good drama naturally does not need overwhelming advertising, because the audience will naturally help promote it.

Song Yurou was at Lu Huaichuan's house tonight. She looked at the news and the popularity on the Internet with a grim expression. If she continued like this, her drama would definitely fail again. She wanted to kill Ji Xia directly. What could she do to destroy her?

Recently, the attitude of her family has become increasingly ambiguous, and Song Yurou's heart is in her throat. She knows very well that the easiest way to destroy a person is to destroy her will.

What is Ji Xia's will?

Is it family love?

The next day, Ji Xia had another bodyguard. She was busy with her schedule for the next week, including live broadcasts and plot meetings, and Liuli Yan did not let the entire crew down.

The subsequent plot is compact and the heroine's growth line is clear, so it is reasonable that this TV series is a hit. The popularity exceeded 30,000 on only the third day after its launch. As long as the subsequent publicity efforts keep up, it will not be bad.

Ji Xia has been browsing the scripts in the space mall these days. She has set her sights on a movie script that is very well written and is the role she wants to challenge.

[Movie Script: S+ Script: Tobacco and Drugs Director: Wang Haitao, Original Script

Plot: Narcotics officer Gu Zheng is tasked with uncovering a drug trafficking ring. While investigating, he meets Wang Sijia, a young woman who has just reached adulthood. She's a bright and cheerful girl, having grown up in this sinister neighborhood, like a pure jasmine blossoming amidst the filth. As Gu Zheng's investigation deepens, he gradually discovers that this little girl beside him is no ordinary person...

Value: 100 Gats

Time: Started in early October and ended at the end of January, a total of about four months

System evaluation: The director is very strict, but he is also a rare film director who has the dominant power.

Reminder: This movie has a foreign director.

Disadvantages: The subject matter is somewhat sensitive and may be removed later.

Success rate: 70%

Ji Xia is ready to give her all. This script is worth it. Wang Sijia's growth line, character transformation, and the sense of difference are full. If it is filmed well, it will definitely win an award. Moreover, she wants to challenge the role of a drug addict.

Now the story of Liuli Yan has reached the stage where the junior sister saved the big devil, and later the senior sister joined their team out of worry. They dealt with monsters from all over the place together, and collected rare treasures to help Li Yuan recover his memory. The current plot rhythm is relatively fast, and everyone is still going through the dungeon, and the main storyline will unfold later.

Ji Xia no longer hesitated and bought the script immediately. The familiar invitation letter appeared with a glowing light. The date on it said that the audition would be held in the top-floor conference room of Kyoto Film and Television Center on September 9.

Time is very tight. She has completed most of her promotional work, and only some photo signings and online live broadcasts are left. She can go for an audition tomorrow. If she successfully gets the role, the timing will be just right.

Jiang Qingyan happened to be leaving to discuss work abroad as well, and the two of them went to their respective battlefields.

"Xia Xia, let's go abroad for the New Year. I'll take you surfing?" Jiang Qingyan was thinking about his plan.

"Okay, we have the same idea. I thought so before. Everyone's visa has been processed." Ji Xia was a little surprised. "Oh, right, I have to get my parents' visas processed too and take them out to play."

Jiang Qingyan patted the girl's head soothingly. "Then I'll ask Gu Jingrong to borrow his plane. Let's go to my private island first, and then go to the United States."

"Private jet?" Ji Xia sighed in his heart, he is indeed a domineering boss.

"I have one too, but the route hasn't been approved yet. Let me urge you." Jiang Qingyan showed off unconsciously. He also had one.

"Then let's make detailed arrangements after the New Year. What time is your flight tomorrow?" Ji Xia thought about seeing him off.

"No need to send me off. Just focus on preparing for your audition. I think you can do it!" Jiang Qingyan buried his head in the girl's neck like a spoiled child. Ever since he got Xingxing, his behavior has inadvertently picked up some cat-like habits.

"You look like a little baby, completely different from your serious look at the beginning." Ji Xia rubbed the man's hair soothingly.

……

The next day, before leaving, Jiang Qingyan tucked the girl's quilt and gave her a light kiss on her smooth forehead.

After leaving the room, his aura changed instantly, and he instructed the housekeeper beside him: "Take good care of her, and notify me immediately if there are any problems."

"Okay, Mr. Jiang."

In the afternoon, Ji Xia brought Guoguo to the audition site. The conditions this time were obviously much better. Everyone was in a separate lounge. Before Ji Xia entered the room, he noticed that the person walking towards him seemed to be Zhao Siyu?

But the staff moved too quickly and she didn't see clearly.

There were staff members in each room, and the auditioning actors did not meet each other.

Guoguo looked around curiously, "Xia Xia, this play doesn't seem to be in the script I compiled for you before? It looks so awesome."

"A friend recommended it to me," Ji Xia made up an excuse. "By the way, haven't you all got your visas? Ask your employees to apply for my family's visas as well."

"Okay," Guoguo asked curiously, "Where are we going to play?"

"It's a secret. I won't let you down." Ji Xia kept it a secret on purpose. As a good boss, it was her responsibility to prepare surprises for everyone!

In the audition room, director Wang Haitao, assistant director David, screenwriter: Wanfeng, and male lead: Shan Siyuan, the four people with the highest authority in this film sat together.

Wang Haitao carefully looked at the dozen or so resumes in his hand: "The difficulty of the role of Wang Sijia is that she is an 18-year-old girl, so the age of the actress we are looking for cannot be higher than 24, so actresses with mature acting skills are not suitable now."

David: "We've already screened a number of girls from various colleges and universities, and none of them could portray the kind of conflicting feelings that Wang Sijia has, the conflict between purity, desire, and thought."

Evening Breeze: "Or we can only reduce Wang Sijia's plot."

Shan Siyuan shook his head: "No, the excellence of this script lies in the rivalry between Gu Zheng and Wang Sijia."

Wang Haitao sighed hesitantly: "Let's see what's available today first. If there's nothing else, we can only expand the scope." His brows, which had been tortured these days, had not relaxed at all.

David said in his rough Mandarin: "Let's get started. Assistant, go get the first actor."

Ji Xia was not mistaken just now. Zhao Siyu was indeed here today. She had recently found another big supporter, who signed her to a new agency and agent. Today's audition opportunity was fought for her by her agent.

Before she came, she made sure that there was no backdoor for her in the script. Zhao Siyu didn't even want to come. She was used to getting roles directly, but considering the director's fame, she came to try her luck.

Ji Xia's signature was in the middle, neither too early nor too late. She had been paying attention to the flight information, and the flight time was about 12 hours.

When it was almost her turn, she paced slowly in the room. She wanted to find her state. Wang Sijia had an angelic appearance but her heart was already rotten. Gu Zheng thought she was the only pure person in this sinful neighborhood.

But because of her drug abuse, her hidden skin had already ulcerated, and death was her only destination.

That innocent smile, the slightly tired eyes, the skilled drug-taking technique, all these contradictory points are all in one person.

Wang Haitao watched the actors' performances in silence. Did Zhao Siyu even read the script? What kind of a role was she playing? She must have had plastic surgery recently. "Your audition is over. You can go back and wait for news."

As a veteran film director, what he cares about most is the actors' faces. Wang Haitao doesn't like plastic surgery faces because they cannot withstand the test of the big screen and the resulting filming would be a disaster.

"Thank you, director." Zhao Siyu looked at the director's expression and felt that she had no chance, but she thought she acted well.

"Assistant, go call the next person over." David gave the orders listlessly. He was a drama fanatic and loved interacting with actors during filming. The feeling of acting made his adrenaline rush.

Wan Feng was a little helpless: "Maybe I didn't grasp it when I wrote the script, and made the character too difficult."

Shan Siyuan: “Let’s take another look”

The assistant sent Zhao Siyu to the rest room: "You can leave now. We will notify you of the results within a week."

"Okay." Zhao Siyu smiled sweetly.

The assistant nodded and quickly took the list in his hand to notify the next actor.

Wang Haitao: "Who's next?"

Evening Breeze: "It's Ji Xia. She's been very popular recently. Her resume is impressive. She graduated from a professional school. I saw her play Phoenix before and it was pretty good."

David: "I know that. She is beautiful."

Shan Siyuan looked at the photo on the resume thoughtfully. He and the girl were schoolmates. That year, as an outstanding senior, he was entrusted by his mentor to go back and take a few acting classes.

She was still very young at that time, but she was always the bravest to stand up and act with him, and her acting skills were good. Because she almost seized every opportunity to learn, he remembered it so clearly.

"Knock knock knock" Ji Xia pushed the door open and walked in, calmly standing in the middle: "Hello everyone, I'm Ji Xia, and the role I'm auditioning for today is Wang Sijia."

Wang Haitao silently examined the girl's appearance, and his eyes lit up. It was exactly the same as in the TV series. It should be all original and look good on camera.

David spoke first, "Please give a brief self-introduction."

"Okay, my name is Ji Xia. I'm 23 years old and graduated from Kyoto Film Academy. I've currently filmed Phoenix, Liuli Pendant, and Black Cat. As for the role of Wang Sijia, I think it's very challenging, so I came here today." Ji Xia deliberately wore a white dress without any makeup on her face, trying her best to fit in with the image.
