The next day.
Jinmulin said they were auditioning for a female lead today. As the male lead, he was one of the judges, and Gong Xiaoqiao wanted to go to learn something, so she followed him there.
As Jinmulin’s assistant, Gong Xiaoqiao stood at a distance while Jinmulin himself lounged with a pose, flanked by the producer on his left and the agent on his right.
That guy was dressed in a saucy pink shirt, the top three buttons of which were perennially undone, clearly enjoying watching a line of terrified beauties, as the director threw the script down and roared—

“The most important thing about the character Shangguan Xianyue is the crying, whether it’s the touching and pitiful tears of a beauty in distress or the heartbroken, numb, and vacant tears; whether it’s fighting back tears while desperately trying to be strong, or laughing madly with tears in the corners of the eyes, each one is different! Onions, eye drops, tap water? Do you think just shedding some tears is crying? Emotion! It’s about emotion! Do you understand?”
The director paced back and forth, his emotions edging closer to a meltdown—
“Before Shangguan Xianyue turns into a demon, she’s a gentlewoman, the Prime Minister’s precious daughter, the capital’s top female scholar! She needs to portray both her gentle and demure nature without being too rigid or stiff, show the spirit of a female scholar, and subtly reveal the ambition and pride hidden beneath her soft and virtuous wife-and-mother exterior!
When she finds out that her husband is overly affectionate and ambiguous with the orphan girl he rescued, she appears nonchalant, but just below her brows lies an unresolved melancholy, that sort of grief and confusion that goes from the brow to the heart!!!
I want a living, breathing Shangguan Xianyue, not a wooden doll! Do you understand?”
The cameraman and producer seemed to want to say something, but the director ignored them completely, all but losing his mind—
“Especially the huge contrast between the weak girl Shangguan Xianyue and the femme fatale Shangguan Xieyue before and after she turns into a demon! You absolutely must grasp these two completely opposing personalities!
Because before the female lead’s mind is fully demonized in the play, her personality will often change instantaneously due to some stimulus, so the ability to switch between the two personalities at any time is essential! Do you understand? Do you understand?”
With one hand on his forehead, the producer twirled a pen with an expression of helplessness and said, “Sxia, I think you’re better off looking for someone with multiple personalities to play the part!”
Gong Xiaoqiao stood there, dumbfounded for a long time, shocked. Was this fellow who looked to be no older than 18 with a baby face really the genius director Feng Sxia who had propelled countless actors to stardom in the industry?
However, when he was berating people, his presence was so dominating that it completely made you overlook his seemingly cute and harmless face.
Jinmulin propped his chin in a relaxed manner, “Speaking of multiple personalities, I happen to know someone…”
“You have someone to recommend?” Feng Sxia was now grasping at straws.
Gong Xiaoqiao suddenly had a bad feeling.
Shaking his head, Jinmulin sighed, “Nowadays, actors indeed are becoming less professional; even my little assistant could play such a role…”
As he said this, Jinmulin motioned for Gong Xiaoqiao to come over, “Xiaoqiao, come here!”
Suddenly, everyone’s gaze followed Jinmulin’s to where Gong Xiaoqiao was in the corner.
He’s not calling me, not me… The one with multiple personalities is him, not me, Gong Xiaoqiao hypnotized herself!
“Come on over, don’t be shy, just give us a little demonstration!” Jinmulin coaxed.
Gong Xiaoqiao was exasperated. Why did that sound so much like someone selling his daughter?
