Faye stared blankly at Lucia for a long time without saying a word.
Suddenly, I got angry at myself for thinking Lucia was noble just now. How could such a lowly being be noble?
How could she have such an air? It must be an illusion, it must be an illusion.
Lucia took in all the changes in her expression, the bright sunlight shining on her beautiful face as if she were bathed in a halo.
Her lips curled slightly, and her eyes were full of confidence and flamboyance. "If you really love acting, please think carefully. If you hate me, please work hard. One day, we'll have a confrontation, we'll face to face. Instead of running up to me and showing off as you do now, that would only make me look down on you.
A man who can't even be serious doesn't deserve to be my match."
The simple words made everyone's faces change slightly. They didn't expect Lucia, who usually looked down upon, to say such words. Sometimes things change in just a few minutes.
Kiera stood there in a daze. Lucia's words just now were like a whip hitting her heart, and she suddenly dared not look down upon her again, and even had a strong intuition that this girl would achieve something that no one else could have imagined.
Faye had to admit that Lucia's radiance was stunned, her face burning fiercely. What did she mean? Was she lecturing her? A scum who grew up in the slums also want to teach her?
"185, Faye."
Hearing someone call her name, she glanced at Lucia's half-smiling look and felt a chill in her heart, but the time for the audition was up and she had to calm down.
Three minutes later, Faye came out of the audition room with a sullen face, her fists clenched involuntarily, her palms sweaty.
When she came out, she saw Lucia eating free doughnuts in big mouthfuls, comforting herself that poor people are just like this.
She glared at Lucia in anger, then gave him a faint smile, as if she were confident, but in her heart she had crushed Lucia to ashes tens of thousands of times. Just now she was so preoccupied that she didn't perform well.
Apparently, both the director and the screenwriter's faces turned pale, and it took her several minutes to get into character for just one scene. It's probably hard to get the role without going through the back door.
The most important thing is... She's still auditioning for the lead actress.
It's all the bitch's fault for putting on AIRS. Lucia must have done it on purpose just to distract herself so she could reap the benefits.
Faye's face was full of worry, her eyes fixed on Lark's phone on the screen, and the thought of Lark's failure to show up made her feel frustrated. She had called Lark countless times before, but she had not answered.
She thought she must be the lead actress, so she didn't think about the role at all and intended to just go through the motions.
But now, she was both startled and scared, yet still had to smile at everyone.
I don't know if Lark has succeeded or not.
Soon it was Lucia's turn to audition, and Faye's jealous eyes were about to explode. "Do you want to bring some eye drops just in case?" I'm afraid I'll be so nervous that I won't be able to cry."
After saying that, Faye felt frustrated for not seeing any panic or anger at Lucia’s face as she had hoped, and then comforted herself.
It's all right, everything is arranged. The worst-case scenario is that I won't get the female lead myself, but with House of Chandler's wealth, it's still more than enough to get a role. Compared to Lucia, who won't even get a maid, I still have something to show off.
Thinking this way, Faye was much more balanced.
Lucia didn't know her thoughts, and even if she did, she wouldn't care. At the moment the door closed, there was not a shred of nervousness or fear, and she walked gracefully and calmly towards the center of the hall.
Her appearance caught the director and the screenwriter's attention. Especially the director, her eyes were straight, her naturally beautiful face, and her every move exuded an air of nobility. Her every smile and frown was not deliberately exaggerated, but it made people feel cold and haughty, as if they were not facing an unknown little actress, but a real princess.
I can't help but wonder, who on earth is this? How could he not have heard of such a person?
"I'm Lucia and the character I'm auditioning for is... Princess Wendy."
"Princess Wendy?" Hearing these four words, the screenwriter's voice rose sharply, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
You know, in this script, his favorite is not the female lead, but the third female lead, because this Princess Wendy is more flesh-and-blood than the other characters.
But the better the role, the higher the demand for acting skills from the actor. First of all, Princess Wendy has a darkening process, and generally speaking, the vast majority of viewers are not very fond of villains.
Secondly, this character has a very contradictory side. She is extremely intelligent but has an extreme longing for family affection. She is ruthless on the one hand, but kind and friendly to her people. She is naturally noble and heroic, but also weak and sickly.
There are few actresses who dare to try such a role, and even if there are, they don't meet their mental standards.
But this Lucia gave them hope because from the moment she walked through the door, she was already the Princess of the South Pavilion.
"Which scene are you going to play?" The director asked in a unusually gentle voice, fearing to disturb the hard-won princess.
"Which scene does the princess save the male lead?" Lucia said it casually. There was no way, she didn't bring the script and was in a hurry. She just glanced at the script that Indira handed her and remembered only this one scene.
She couldn't tell the director and the screenwriter, "Sorry, she didn't bring the script, just to show off."
That would be crossed out.
But she didn't expect that a random clip she picked would leave the director and the screenwriter stunned.
Whether Lucia is truly talented or just trying to show off, this scene is the most challenging for acting skills. One wrong move could ruin it.
"Are you sure?"
"Um."
Princess Wendy herself and the male lead belong to opposing forces, and she, with her cold and beautiful nature, falls in love with this great hero. Intellectually, she should kill this man, but emotionally, she loves him. Contradiction is the core of this character and the most difficult part.
Lucia crouched slowly into the air, her straight back revealing her inherent nobility and pride, as if even the man in front of her could not catch her eye. But the unrestrained affection in her eyes told people that it was not the case, that she was struggling, that she was suffering, that she was wavering between love and responsibility...
Finally, she gritted her teeth and decided to leave, but stopped just two steps away. Looking at the wounded look of her beloved, she couldn't bear it and drew closer again. Her slender fingers trembled and she couldn't help but touch his brow, as if it were the last time to be willful.
But in the end, she chose to leave, saved him but could never tell him...
The screenwriter stared at Lucia almost in obsession, a man weeping, while the director and crew beside him had already been broken down by the suppressed affection, with tears streaming down their faces.
