Zhao Kaili hardly ever watched variety shows. Even less would she pay any attention to the kids’ variety show that Li Xingwan and the others had previously recorded.
She was just angry hearing about it.
"Can someone who got famous from variety shows even act? What’s gotten into Chen Ming? Does he want to ruin his own big production?"
An actor’s skills directly affect a drama, after all!
There was once a variety show star who got famous. And what was the result? Their acting was so ridiculed, they couldn’t show their face. It even dragged the whole drama down with them.
"I wouldn’t know about that," Yang Qinglin said with a smile. "After all, it was Teacher Chen who found this person. Her name is Li Xingwan."
She deliberately wanted to use Zhao Kaili to make things difficult for Li Xingwan, to embarrass her momentarily. As for this variety show star or whatever, she didn’t know her anyway.
"Then you’ll have to pay extra attention later," Yang Qinglin returned to the makeup room. Her expression finally lightened up a bit.
Jiang Song was looking at her phone, coming across a few photos.
"Xingwan," she said as she regarded the two photos. "Chu Youxuan actually made a secret trip."
At a time , shouldn’t she be aggressively snagging resources to reclaim some status?
Or at least announcing more works and resources.
Could it be that the incident in the kids’ variety show had such a big impact on her?
To the point that she essentially had no resources and no one was seeking her out?
Li Xingwan paused when she heard this, then she stopped caring.
Chu Youxuan wouldn’t go out without reason, especially not at this time.
So, she must have gone to do something.
Xingwan’s makeup was quickly finished, and the moment she changed into her costume and stepped out, everyone was stunned by her face.
It was as if she had stepped right out of a book. A beauty capable of overthrowing states, and after the fall of her country, pitiful yet enchanting.
It made people feel a desire to cherish and protect her.
Not just the men, but women too.
Chen Ming was just coming in from outside. When he saw Li Xingwan’s makeup, he was thoroughly amazed.
Just like stepping out of a book!
He had high expectations for Li Xingwan.
"Teacher Chen," the voice repeated, this time belonging to Yang Qinglin. Her makeup and appearance were almost identical to Li Xingwan’s, testing for the same role.
Chen Ming turned to look at her. Yang Qinglin, with her good acting and looks, also carried the air of a deposed princess.
"Teacher Yang," Chen Ming was very courteous to her, referring to her as Teacher Yang. "Come on in, let’s start the screen test."
Yang Qinglin glanced at Li Xingwan’s costume. When she saw that the scene Li Xingwan was testing for was identical to hers, she gritted her teeth in anger.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got.
She had managed to overshadow Chu Youxuan in the variety show, and now she was actually trying for the same role. What gave her the right?!
"So, Miss Li is also testing for this role," she remarked.
Li Xingwan nodded, not intending to say much to her. Although Yang Qinglin had a good reputation, her rise to fame was just a tad better than Chu Youxuan’s.
She had a powerful backer too.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t act so haughtily.
Li Xingwan and the others followed inside. The train of her large dress was held up by Jiang Song as they proceeded.
Yang Qinglin shot them a look and followed them in.
Inside, the audition stage was already set up. As they entered, there were whispers among the people following behind.
