Unfortunately, Drunk at Dusk had to butt in, making all the things she had just done a joke.
Gu Shengyin found Drunk at Dusk and opened a private chat box, sending over a smile: "Thank you."
The reply came quickly: "Don’t mention it, I’ve always appreciated your voice."
Most of the people had arrived, and they started to audition one by one. Actually, it mainly involved auditions for a few key roles, while the supporting roles were auditioned by the CVs themselves, who recorded and submitted their work for the production team to select from.
Originally, as a nobody, Liangzi Loves Eating Steamed Buns wouldn’t have been eligible to audition live in the room, but she was brought in by Spring Show and Autumn Show, so Mountain and River Scroll couldn’t just snub a big shot’s face.
Going by the roles, Crown Prince Liu Yun had already been decided for the male lead, so Drunk at Dusk just symbolically read a part, without any indication of a problem.
Then it was the turn of the female lead, Yun Zhongxian. Her character is a cold and aloof High Immortal, a voice that is not easy to convey. Mountain and River Scroll even invited several top talents to audition.
After everyone had tried out, the club president, Rivers Within Sleeves, was somewhat dissatisfied in his heart.
Without a doubt, the performances of these celebrated talents were up to standard, whether it was in terms of emotion or tone, they were all excellent. If it were an ordinary web drama, almost any one of them would have been fine.
But, unfortunately, Peach Blossom Forest was something he wanted to turn into a masterpiece, a classic web drama. As one of the drama’s soulful characters, the CV for Yun Zhongxian become particularly critical.
He always felt that there was something lacking in their performances.
Now it was Liangzi Loves Eating Steamed Buns’ turn.
Gu Shengyin set down her honey tea and listened quietly to her performance.
As soon as she began, Gu Shengyin felt glad she had put down her tea.
This... is this the cold and desireless Yun Zhongxian?
Isn’t this a little girl asking her brother for candy?
When Liangzi Loves Eating Steamed Buns finished, there was an awkward silence in the room for a second.
Gu Shengyin truly didn’t know where this person’s confidence came from to audition for this role; she sat quietly and did not speak up. This time, she wouldn’t be the bad guy.
She had prepared an even bigger gift to give her.
The director, Zhan Cha, spoke: "I think, Liangzi Loves Eating Steamed Buns, you’re not quite suitable for this role."
Her comment was blunt but not too harsh.
Unfortunately, Liangzi Loves Eating Steamed Buns was someone with an overly good opinion of herself. She immediately turned on her microphone and spoke up: "Why? What did I do wrong? Is my Mandarin not standard? Or is there something lacking in my emotions?"
Gu Shengyin felt at that moment, Zhan Cha must be feeling really frustrated.
Indeed, Zhan Cha was not just frustrated, she even felt as if a thousand Divine Beasts were stampeding through her heart.
What is wrong? Girl, have you read the novel? If you’d actually read it, would you have the gall to ask such a question? Who is Yun Zhongxian? If I must say it, you are out of place everywhere!
Unfortunately, right at that moment, Spring Show and Autumn Show, for some inexplicable reason, also spoke up: "Zhan Cha, Liangzi is new to this circle and doesn’t understand anything. Just explain it to her properly, I think she has good potential."
Zhan Cha nearly cursed out loud. That newcomer doesn’t understand anything, but you’ve been around for so long, Spring Show and Autumn Show, don’t you get it?
How am I supposed to explain this situation to you? 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
Spring Show and Autumn Show’s act of feigning ignorance and pushing someone else to play the bad guy while trying to look good themselves was truly nauseating.
