Chapter 516 Happiness comes too suddenly
While Zhang Yi was observing those pretty young girls, many people were also observing her and Meng Ziyi.
With so many eyes on her, Zhang Tian'ai could naturally feel it, and after realizing it, she felt a little guilty.
However, she didn't know what she was feeling guilty about, so she quickly tried to act as if nothing was wrong.
However, after secretly glancing at the girls who were watching her, she was genuinely surprised.
They all seem to have impressive backgrounds.
Meng Ziyi also noticed and whispered in her ear, "Sister Yi'ai, quite a few people with strong backgrounds have come. Did you see Li Yitong? Her company is going to push her hard, and she has several big-budget dramas coming up."
"And then there's Zhang Ruonan. Although most of her fans are on Douyin now, Guanxian Film and Television is really promoting her. It seems she almost became a Cheng Girl back then, the one when the boss hit on her at the airport."
Zhang Ai glanced at Zhang Ruonan subconsciously. At first glance, she didn't think Zhang Ruonan was particularly outstanding, but after looking at her a couple more times, she was surprised to find that Zhang Ruonan was actually quite attractive and became more and more beautiful the more she looked at her.
This surprised her.
A stunningly beautiful woman at first glance is nothing special.
Many people with good looks will give off this feeling when they put on makeup. But you get tired of seeing beautiful women. No matter how stunning they are, they seem to look the same after a while.
But those things that grow on you the more you look at them are different; they're bound to go further in the end.
Meng Ziyi continued, "See that baby face? She used to play Song Zuer in 'Angry Nezha,' and she's also being heavily promoted by the company. But she's a 95er? Never mind, it doesn't matter whether she has a pretty face or not."
"Where are the twins?" Zhang Tingai suddenly looked in surprise at a spot where there was a pair of very beautiful twins. They looked familiar; she must have seen them in a drama.
Meng Ziyi was both amused and exasperated when she saw the two: "They're not twins, and they're not even related, but they look like this, so they're definitely rivals. I heard they're fighting tooth and nail for resources. The one on the left is Zhou Ye, and the one on the right is Zhang Jingyi."
"These two are quite influential. One is the popular actress Bingbing, and the other is the famous Zhou Xun."
"Huh??" Zhang Tingai was genuinely surprised to hear those two names.
After all, in this industry, whether it's TV series or movies, who can avoid mentioning Bingbing and Zhou Xun from the past? Moreover, they've now moved up a level and become investors.
What she was more curious about was how Meng Ziyi knew so much detail: "Ziyi, where did you get this information? Although I recognize several of their faces, I really don't know anything about them."
Meng Ziyi said in surprise, "Isn't there information in the department group? We can all see it. Sister Yi'ai, didn't you see it? Really? Aren't you curious about the new Cheng Girl at all?"
Zhang Tingai was taken aback.
Of course she was curious.
But she really didn't watch it.
So, she immediately took out her phone to check the resources in the department group. Upon clicking, she discovered that these materials were not available to everyone; only a few people who participated in the selection process could see them.
As one of the members selected by the company, she was also eligible to watch.
However, she also knew that participating was just to ride the wave of popularity, and she definitely wouldn't get the lead role; given her age, they didn't have the face to do so.
Meng Ziyi is younger than her, but her charming demeanor makes her seem like a college student, let alone a high school student.
Her looks are perfect for playing glamorous or seductive characters.
Soon, she also saw more information, such as a girl surnamed Li who had a powerful man surnamed Xu behind her who specialized in teaching acting, and it seemed that many celebrities went to her to learn acting skills.
He's a really capable person.
This celebrity surnamed Li has also played a student before, and he is very suitable for the image of a student, and his acting skills are also very good.
Obviously, the other person's appearance is really not good, and the boss definitely wouldn't be interested.
There was one girl who gave her a very good chance.
This girl named Chen Duling is incredibly pure and innocent. She looks like a pushover, which perfectly fits the image of someone who is bullied. She naturally gives off a kind of protective vibe.
This must be very tempting for the boss.
After that, she looked at several more girls and felt that although they were pretty, they lacked unique features and were all the same kind of beauty, which the boss would definitely not like.
Meng Ziyi was also discussing it with her.
The two even quickly developed the mindset of the person in question, as if they were the ones participating in the beauty pageant.
However, they felt it was very necessary.
After all, if the female lead of "Better Days" becomes a "Cheng Girl" (a term referring to actresses who have worked with director Cheng), then maybe they will all work together in the future and become good friends.
Therefore, naturally, one would prefer to choose someone who is pleasing to the eye, has a good temper, and, most importantly, a good reputation.
Meng Ziyi suddenly pointed to a file on Zhang Tingai's phone and said, "I didn't expect this one to come too. She looks harmless, but she has a lot of dirt on her. The key is that men should all like a face like that, right?"
Zhang Yiai couldn't help but sigh, this person's face really does have a bit of the feel of Xiao Baihua, after all, she is the famous "Zhang Yimou Girl", that famous director really promoted her.
However, her reputation began to decline after her mother was exposed for ruining a young girl's life and showing no remorse.
Therefore, Zhang Tian'ai felt that the boss would never choose her. While Zhang Tian'ai and Meng Ziyi were counting the young actresses, a number of staff members suddenly entered the scene. They also saw that Mr. Chen from the photography department was leading the photographers to adjust the equipment around them.
After the equipment was set up, a stage manager came to inform them that the broadcast had started.
The meaning is very simple: you need to pay attention to your image from now on, whether it's chatting, talking, or your posture. That girl with her legs crossed, why don't you put your legs down?
Since it's a live broadcast, the audience's comments can have a significant impact.
The girl who had been crossing her legs immediately put them down when the live stream started, transforming into a well-behaved girl without needing to be reminded.
As the live stream began, the viewers who had been waiting in the Second Star's "Better Days" live stream room naturally saw it first, and most of them were Chen Jincheng's fans.
Moreover, as the broadcast began, more and more people flocked to the live stream room.
People have been posting about Chen Jincheng in various fan groups, and fans are flocking to join.
Although I can't watch Cheng's live stream, I'll definitely watch the live streams of the events and programs he organizes.
As soon as the fans started, they saw the photographer very considerately moving the camera around, taking pictures of the young actresses who came to participate in the selection.
Almost every flower was captured in the shot, allowing the audience to see it clearly. Moreover, by shooting back and forth, even viewers arriving later could see it clearly.
Those beautiful young women really made everyone's eyes pop out, and they exclaimed that this was what a beauty pageant should be like.
It's safe to say that, aside from internet celebrities who rely on beauty filters, these girls who look this beautiful under the lens of a variety show are definitely among the most beautiful in China.
Perhaps no program will be able to bring these young actresses together again, especially after they become famous.
Now Cheng has achieved this with just one movie casting call, bringing together so many young actresses. At some point in the future, this will likely become a classic scene.
This really pleased the viewers in the live stream, and the chat was flooded with comments:
"The photographer is sensible."
"The photographer is incredibly considerate."
"Haha, this photographer is pretty good!"
"..."
An assistant director had already announced a message backstage: "Girls, welcome to participate in this casting event for 'Better Days'."
"This casting is not limited to the female lead, but also includes her classmates and several supporting female characters in school roles. They are all very good, and we hope that everyone can actively showcase their strengths."
"Now, please welcome our judges to the stage."
Upon hearing this, all the little flower girls looked towards the door, only to see it had been opened.
A middle-aged man walked in.
The young actresses, knowing he was the film's director Zeng Guoxiang, immediately burst into enthusiastic applause. This was their chance to shine.
Then, the second person was a young man, none other than Mr. Sun from Ershixingchen. Now he's a very famous figure in the film and television industry, a big shot.
The applause grew even louder.
"Next up is our award-winning actor, Mr. Wu Zhengyu." The host was very excited when he called out this name.
Putting aside everything else, Wu Zhengyu has made tremendous contributions to the entertainment industry. During the heyday of Hong Kong cinema, he created countless classic and well-known roles.
Therefore, the applause was still thunderous. With this senior judge, he was an absolute authority on acting skills, and his words certainly carried weight.
The host's voice rang out again: "Next up is our last judge. You should all be familiar with him. He is none other than the number one scumbag on the internet... ah no, the youngest and most handsome super-rich man, Mr. Chan Kam-ching."
Clearly, the host was making a joke, but deliberately didn't finish it. This was to liven up the atmosphere in the live stream, because he had received information that the boss's fans would make up the majority of the audience at the beginning of the live stream, and this was to cater to the boss's fans.
Chen Jincheng knew what had happened, but he didn't blame him. Instead, he walked in leisurely.
The girls present didn't expect him to be a judge, so their reactions were a little different when he came in.
"Wow!"
"Wow!"
"..."
Even the girl who was just sitting with her legs crossed suddenly stopped pretending to be a lady, put her finger to her lips, and started whistling loudly at Chen Jincheng.
Chen Jincheng was attracted to her for a moment. The key was that she was quite pretty, but she also had a rather shrewd and worldly air about her.
The viewers in the live stream were amused, especially Chen Jincheng's fans, who hadn't expected him to be a judge himself.
Doesn't this live stream mean watching Cheng's live stream?
As a fan, I suddenly felt that happiness came too suddenly.
