After My Divorce I Picked Up the Richest Boss in the World Chapter 111

Chapter 111: Competition

Jiang Zhi looked at her awkward expression and actually found it somewhat cute. She coughed lightly to cover up the smile on her face.

“Of course it counts. Get ready to audition with Wu Dai.”

A hint of joy quickly flashed across Jiang Xue’s deathly silent face. She could finally act.

She immediately took out her phone and contacted the team, her stylists, and her wardrobe department. She also wanted to do an in-depth beauty treatment. Jiang Xue only felt that there was not enough time.

Jiang Zhi directly took Jiang Xue’s phone, cut off the call, and threw it back to Jiang Xue.

“Jiang Xue, you have to learn to stand in front of the public with your own face.”

“Do you think anyone would want to see this face on the big screen?”

Jiang Xue pursed her lips, and a self-deprecating look flashed in her eyes as she asked sharply in return.

“Jiang Xue, what is your current aim. Where do you think you stand among the female stars?”

Jiang Zhi’s scrutinizing gaze landed on Jiang Xue’s skin, which had been damaged by her ailing career and heavy smoking. When she had recommended this role to Jiang Xue back then, part of the reason was because of how well she could pass as a mother.

“Have you forgotten why you don’t get any scenes? Firstly, it’s because of your awkward age, and secondly, it’s because your acting skills aren’t considered top-notch!”

Jiang Zhi gently pinched Jiang Xue’s chin and lifted her face slightly. Her eyes were not filled with the disgust and revulsion that Jiang Xue had expected.

“In the entertainment industry, there has always been no shortage of beauties. Even if you were to be beautified every day, you would not be able to compare to a teenage girl who is filled with collagen. Therefore, you have to accept your strengths instead! Take pride in it, wield it like a weapon!”

Jiang Zhi’s words made Jiang Xue waver a little. She looked into Jiang Zhi’s determined eyes and nodded slowly.

Perhaps Jiang Zhi was right…

Once the news of the public audition for “The Afterlife” was released, almost all the actors and rookies in the industry, from the C-list to the A-list, started to move.

The popularity of “Beacon” seemed to have happened just yesterday. The phrase “Director Zheng’s work”, had now become a bellwether for the entertainment industry.

Wu Dai and Jiang Xue saw that the audition room was filled with people, and they felt a huge pressure in their hearts.

Although Wu Dai felt some pressure, he had also been shelved in Swallowtail previously. He had never experienced the feeling of being at the peak of fame and fortune, so he did not have the experience of falling off the altar that Jiang Xue had.

Moreover, the role of this audition was closer to his image. After the shock, he calmed down.

However, Jiang Xue was different. She was once known as a most promising little flower. She had acted in amazing roles, and she had also acted in a popular TV series. She had worked with many of the actors who had come to audition today, so she felt very different.

She looked at the beautiful female celebrities who still looked the same. She subconsciously raised her hand and touched her face. She felt that her hands were rough and dry, and there was a sense of inferiority in the depths of her eyes.

“Isn’t that Jiang Xue? How did she become like this now?”

“Look at that face. She’s at least 20 years old!.”

“I don’t know. It’s been a long time since I’ve paid attention to her news.”

When the actors saw Jiang Xue, they were also a little surprised. They began to discuss in low voices. Their voices were like densely packed sharp blades that pierced into Jiang Xue’s heart.

Jiang Xue gritted her teeth, telling herself not to listen to them or think about the comments. She remembered Jiang Zhi’s words. She would overcome it all with her sheer acting!

However, just as she was about to throw away the trouble, a figure with a fragrant breeze stopped in front of her.

“Isn’t this Jiang Xue? I almost didn’t recognize her just now. I thought someone’s nanny had come over!”

Yin Yue fiddled with her freshly-made nails as her mocking gaze swept back and forth across Jiang Xue’s face. The disdain in her eyes grew stronger.

“Even though you’re overestimating yourself by coming to this audition, you should still respect the production team. Why don’t you tidy up properly? You’re really not ashamed of that face!

“Ah, are you here to audition for a streetcleaner’s role? That suits your current face!”

When Jiang Xue heard Yin Yue’s words, her face instantly turned pale. She raised her head abruptly and looked at Yin Yue’s young and beautiful face. She felt as if a sharp silver needle had been inserted into her eyes, causing her eyes to turn extremely sour.

“The most important thing for an actor is their acting skills. We will all age one day.

“As for who is suitable for what role, the director will naturally decide. There’s no need for senior Yin to worry here!”

Wu Dai stood in front of Jiang Xue and spoke out to defend her.
