494 What Do You Guys Think Of Her?
The actors who came for the audition today were not only auditioning for roles in Mingguan’s part, but also roles in Ji Cheng and Yiwu’s parts.
Another reason why the three of them were judges was that an actor might not be able to audition for the role they wanted.
However, if the other two directors felt that this actor could try out a role in their part, they could find a suitable actor in time and give out a suitable role from their side.
This was to prevent missing out on actors who were suitable for other roles.

“Director Li, Director Sun, Director Ji.” Youlan called after she came in.
She didn’t expect the three directors to come together as judges.
“Little Su,” Mingguan smiled and said. “How’s the preparation of your foreign language lines going?”
“I’ve been working hard on my pronunciation for the past two days. I’m sure I’ll be able to say these foreign lines well before the shooting starts.” Youlan said.
“Let’s not talk about the shooting first.” Mingguan didn’t respond to Youlan. He lowered his head and flipped through a few pages of the script. “Little Su, try this scene first. Luo Niannian is attending a cocktail party, and she’s using English and French to communicate with the guests.”
Youlan recited three sentences in English and two sentences in French from memory.
She could speak English well. Although it was slow, her pronunciation was still relatively accurate.
However, she was obviously not used to speaking French, and her pronunciation was very inaccurate.
If Jiang Xun hadn’t done it before, Mingguan wouldn’t have been satisfied, but he would have given Youlan more opportunities to practice.
However, with Jiang Xun’s native-level pronunciation, Youlan’s words were too rough.
“The pronunciation of French is more difficult to master,” Mingguan comforted Youlan. “Try the scene of what happened before Luo Niannian was captured.”
“Under the night sky, the people who came to capture Luo Niannian were acting in secret. Luo Niannian had just received the news that she was about to be captured. She was about to escape when she heard someone knocking on her door. The performance starts after the knocking.”
Youlan took a deep breath and exhaled. She closed her eyes and tried to get into the zone, imagining what would happen if someone came to capture her.
When she opened her eyes again, Youlan’s eyes flashed with panic. She clenched her fists and then loosened them, then froze.
She hurriedly ran to the window and looked down.
When she realized that someone was looking up from downstairs, she quickly turned around and hid.
She pulled open all the furniture doors in the house, but there was no place to hide.
Mingguan knocked on the table three times to simulate the second knock.
Youlan’s breathing became rapid.
Mingguan slammed the table again, simulating the sound of someone kicking the door.
Youlan shivered when she heard the sound. She was flustered from head to toe, and her panic reached its peak.
But then, seeing the person who came in to arrest her, Youlan’s shoulders drooped as if she was deflated and she calmed down.
“That’s enough,” Ji Cheng said. After Youlan relaxed and got out of the act, Ji Cheng asked again, “What do you think of the role in this scene? Why did you act like this?”
Youlan wasn’t sure what Ji Cheng meant. Did he think she acted well or not?
But looking at the three directors’ expressions, she couldn’t tell anything.
Youlan could only say, “I think that Luo Niannian was still nervous when she knew that someone was coming to capture her. As long as there was a chance of survival, she still hoped to escape successfully.” However, she realized that she couldn’t run. I pulled open all the furniture doors, hoping to hide. This is an instinctive reaction in the face of danger. Even if I know that it is impossible to hide, I still hoped to find a place to hide.”
“However, the other party broke in. Luo Niannian knew that she had no chance of escaping. At this point, she calmed down,” Youlan said, “Luo Niannian is undoubtedly brave. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have given up her stable life and come back to fight for her dreams. But from what I understand, she’s still a 22-year-old young lady, so it’s inevitable that she’ll be afraid. That’s why she panicked when she found out that someone was here to capture her.”
“She was still afraid before someone broke in. However, when the other party broke in, she knew that she couldn’t escape, so she calmed down,” Youlan said. “This is human nature.”
Yiwu did not say anything, and he only asked her, “You said that Luo Niannian was scared before the other party broke in, because she is only a 22 year old girl. When she chose to come back, she might not have known about the situation in the country at that time. But later on, when she carried out various missions, she should have seen many dangers. Didn’t she anticipate this?”
Youlan’s eyes flashed and she smiled uncertainly.”Director, is there something wrong with my understanding of this role?”
“No, no.” Yiwu held a pen in his hand and waved at Youlan. “Don’t misunderstand, I’m not in charge of Luo Niannian’s part, so I don’t have a deep understanding of this role. I just wanted to discuss it with you.”
Youlan heaved a sigh of relief and said, “It’s like this. I don’t think she was really in danger before. She hid in the newspaper office and passed on information under the cover of a reporter. Usually, she often attends some high-level parties, so she might not be aware of the possibility of something actually happening to her.”
“When nothing is imminent, people take chances and think that their identity won’t be discovered. Moreover, she’s usually in a relatively safe environment,” Youlan said. “So, even if she knew it would be dangerous, she might not have have a real sense of awareness. That’s why she was really afraid when she was about to be caught.”
Youlan thought for a while and added,”I think this Luo Niannian is real. She has the weaknesses and contradictions of human nature, and her character is not perfect, which makes this character even more prominent.”
Mingguan exchanged glances with Yiwu and Ji Cheng, and Mingguan said, “You’re right. We’ll discuss it later.”
This meant that the audition was over.
Youlan nodded and emphasized again that she would definitely practice those foreign lines well.
This audition had been ruined by Jiang Xun. She kept feeling uneasy.
Youlan returned to the lounge and didn’t leave this time.
She didn’t want to go back and wait for the results in fear.
She wanted to stay here and see how Jiang Xun’s audition turned out.
After Youlan left, Mingguan asked Yiwu and Ji Cheng, “What do you guys think of her?”
“Let’s not talk about the foreign language first. Her understanding of the role is different from what we discussed with the screenwriter,” Ji Cheng said. “To be honest, I’m more inclined to the character’s personality that we’ve discussed with the screenwriter.”
