373 The real

Jiang se raised an eyebrow and took a look at one of the cards. Xia Chaoqun explained, ”

this is the information of the people-in-charge of the top brands who will be attending Steinway's 30th-anniversary party. You have to make good use of it.

Xia Chaoqun looked at the piece of paper in her hands. try your best to remember it. It'll be good for you. Although you might not be able to take advantage of this gathering to secure the endorsement deal in one go, you should understand that sometimes, leaving a good impression on others can not rule out the possibility of working together in the future.

yes, ” Jiang se replied. Mo Anqi packed her things. When she saw that Xia Chaoqun did not have any further instructions for her, she bade her farewell and left.

On the day of the arranged meeting with Zhang Jingan, Xia Chaoqun personally came to pick Jiang se up.

Along the way, Xia Chaoqun was tirelessly explaining Zhang Jingan's personality, behavior, hobbies, and so on. Although Jiang se had played an extra role in Zhang Jingan's movie once, the role in ” rescue mission ” could not be compared to the one she was playing now.

before you reach the studio, turn your phone to silent mode. Don't let the phone call affect our conversation.

As he spoke, Xia Chaoqun glanced at the watch on his wrist.

the meeting is expected to last for an hour and a half, ” she said as she tapped her watch.

a simple meeting won't take such a long time. This means that Zhang Jingan may be testing your acting skills at the last minute. He will give you a script on the spot and ask you to play the role he wants to see if you are suitable.

At this point, she gave a meaningful reminder, ”

“You have to be mentally prepared. Don't get scared.”

Zhang Jingan's studio was not far from the headquarters of the century Galaxy Corporation. However, compared to the magnificence of the century Galaxy Building, Zhang Jingan's studio was only located on the first floor of the building.

After entering the building and revealing his identity to the reception downstairs, someone came down to welcome him.

Compared to Zhang Jingan's world-famous status as a director, his studio in the imperial capital was extremely low-key and simple. There were not many employees, which was not in line with the body of a director. However, people who had been here never dared to underestimate this place.

The company's decorations were mainly minimalistic. What caught Jiang SE's attention the most was the transparent glass walls. Rows of floor-to-ceiling glass separated the office, and she could clearly see the busy employees working.

The early preparations for Zhang Jingan's movie were all done by the staff here. Perhaps it was because they had seen many famous celebrities under Zhang Jingan's guidance that when Jiang se and Xia Chaoqun arrived, the busy staff did not show any signs of surprise. They continued to do their own things with their heads lowered.

For a moment, only the sound of the central air conditioner blowing cold air and the sound of the staff typing on the computer could be heard.

“I've already informed director Zhang. This way, please.”

The receptionist sent by Zhang Jingan's studio to welcome Jiang se and Xia Chaoqun was a slim young girl. When she spoke to Jiang se, she made a ‘please' gesture. She led Jiang se and the others to the door of a meeting room. Before she could push the door open and enter, Jiang se could see the entire meeting room through the transparent floor-to-ceiling glass.

The space inside was quite wide, about 50 square meters or so, and most of it was set up as a performance venue. There were a few chairs in the back row, and a whole mirror in front of it, which clearly reflected the furnishings in the room.

Xia Chaoqun's guess was correct. Zhang Jingan had arranged to meet Jiang se here. He probably had the intention of auditioning for her on the spot.

However, the environment here was a great test for people.

Ever since Jiang se had entered the industry, she had auditioned for her first movie. However, be it for Gu Jiaer's ” pretense to reality ” or the auditioning for ” events of Beiping ” later on, none of them were like this. It was almost as if they were completely undisguised and presented to everyone.

Most audition rooms were independent spaces for actors to focus on their performance.

In Zhang Jingan's case, every minute after the actor entered the meeting room was a test. The attention of outsiders would bring great psychological pressure and torture to the auditioners.

For those with a slightly weaker psychological quality, no matter how superb their acting skills were, they would probably be affected by the public's eyes and would not perform up to standard.

In particular, the mirror in the conference room that was wiped clean and bright might reflect the performer's figure in it. Every subtle expression and movement could not only be seen by the examiner, but even the auditioning actors themselves could be affected.

Xia Chaoqun had clearly been here before. He was no stranger to this place. Her expression was calm, and her gaze was normal. She did not show any signs of shock or astonishment.

Jiang se recalled Xia Chaoqun's reminder in the car when they were on their way here. How could she not understand why Xia Chaoqun had mentioned that she should ‘be mentally prepared and not be frightened'?

She laughed bitterly. The girl who led the way pushed the glass door open and called for the staff to bring water.

The office was very chilly. Jiang se looked at herself in the mirror. The minute changes in everyone's expressions were reflected in the mirror. She was mentally preparing herself for the audition later. Suddenly, an employee from Zhang Jingan's studio said, ”

“Director Zhang is here.”

Everyone turned their heads in response to her words. Sure enough, they saw Zhang Jingan leading a few people in from outside.

The staff pushed the door open for him, and Zhang Jingan appeared outside. The staff who were working outside turned to look. He smiled as soon as he came in.

“Sorry to keep you waiting.”

Jiang se shook her head and gave him a hug.

“We've only just arrived,”

After some small talk, Zhang Jingan gestured for Jiang se to take a seat. He did not rush Jiang se to audition as soon as he arrived. Instead, he began to chat with her.

“Jiang se has improved a lot.”

As Zhang Jingan spoke, a woman who had entered the meeting room with him sized Jiang se up without making a sound.

the first movie you've ever made was in my rescue mission, right? ”

In reality, Zhang Jingan remembered Jiang se as well. She was still a newbie back then. Liu Ye had spoken up for her on the set. She had performed well back then. She was considered bold among the newbies, had good performance, and was talented. She did not have stage fright when she faced him during her first movie.

Zhang Jingan recalled the scene back then. When the cameo actress was chased away by him, Jiang se did not feel any pressure and successfully completed the scene. It was precisely because of her outstanding performance that even though she was an unknown character in the film, people still took notice of her after the movie was released. They even compared her to Feng Nan.
