"Go, go!" Sister Li shooed Qiao Ai away like she was shooing a fly. She knew that Qiao Ai was a person with a strong sense of self-esteem. The more she behaved like this, the less suitable she was for this industry. Forget it, she couldn't help anymore.
Only then did Qiao Ai leave.
"You can't be helped!" Miffy whispered.
Qiao Ai still heard him. She gritted her teeth and pretended not to hear him.
Standing at the end of the line, Qiao Ai was lost in thought.
Speaking of which, she was really unlucky.
The year before last, she had finally accepted a role in a palace drama with a new director. She was supposed to act as the daughter of an official family and enter the palace for a talent show. The director needed an actress who could dance the Jing Hong dance. In order to get this opportunity, she had to bite the bullet and accept it even though she did not have much dancing skills. She had spent a lot of time practicing this dance. When filming, the director had also praised her.
Last year, when this palace drama was broadcast, it became popular all over the country. Not to mention the main lead, even a few of the servant girls in the drama became famous.
However, all of her scenes had been deleted. There was only a fleeting scene.
This incident was a huge blow to her. She cried the entire night, not understanding why her scenes had been deleted.
Later, Sister Li told her that she had offended the female lead, Lin Fangling, because she did not give up her seat.
She tried hard to recall for a long time before she remembered that she had just finished dancing the terpsichorean dance that day. She was too tired and saw an ownerless folding chair beside her, so she sat down to rest.
At that time, Lin Fangling, who everyone thought was a nice person, walked past her. Qiao Ai thought that Lin Fangling was greeting her and smiled back. Lin Fangling smiled back at her and left.
With just this little episode, she had lost the chance to show her face in the movie.
After this movie, Lin Fangling exploded in popularity. Her value skyrocketed, and she became an A-lister. For a moment, she was in the limelight.
Qiao Ai never had a good chance to turn things around.
"Let the interview begin!" Someone shouted from the front.
Qiao Ai pulled herself back from her thoughts and smiled bitterly. Perhaps she really wasn't suited to be a celebrity!
By the time Qiao Ai went in for the interview, night had fallen.
Most of the interviewees had left, and the noisy corridor became empty.
When Qiao Ai entered the interview room, the interviewers were already discussing the candidates that they thought highly of. It was as if no one had noticed her presence.
She was a little embarrassed. Her watery eyes quickly swept across the interviewer's face and she was surprised to find that she knew the interviewer in the middle because she really could not forget him. He was the new director, Yu Zhou. At that time, he had a full beard, black-rimmed glasses, and was unkempt. She thought that he was an unkempt man.
Later, he won many awards such as the best director award for his palace drama," The Legend of Concubine Ling." When he went on stage to receive the award, he realized that he was still a handsome man even after shaving his beard. He was also a rich second-generation heir.
At that time, he and Lin Fangling were university classmates. Later on, they naturally developed into a couple." The Legend of Concubine Ling " was a big drama that he tailor-made for Lin Fangling, so one sentence from Lin Fangling could easily decide her life and death.
Now that she saw him again, Qiao Ai felt emotional.
Yu Zhou was tall and his skin was a little pale. His peach blossom eyes were full of affection. He always looked at the other party with a kind of affectionate gaze, as if he was afraid that he would drown the other party in his eyes. This kind of man was very romantic and had an outstanding temperament. He was not someone that ordinary people could control.
While she was sizing him up, Yu Zhou also looked up at her. He found her familiar, but he could not remember where he had seen her before.
He coughed and reminded the interviewer beside him.
The interviewers also realized that there were more interviewees, and they all turned to look at Qiao Ai.
Qiao Ai couldn't help but feel nervous when she was being scrutinized by so many people. However, she had experienced many interviews like this. She quickly calmed down and introduced herself.
One of the middle-aged women interrupted her self-introduction and asked indifferently,"Do you have any special skills?"
Qiao Ai had just introduced herself when she was interrupted. It was very impolite of the interviewers to do so, but it also showed that they were getting impatient.
Normally, she would have given up by now.
However, when she looked up and met Yu Zhou's face, the anger and grievance from back then surged into her heart. She licked her slightly dry lips and said,"I know how to dance."
"Then let's dance a few moves.”The middle-aged woman's tone was still indifferent. The other interviewers finally looked at her in the eye.
Qiao Ai looked around and saw a ribbon in the corner. It was impossible for her to wear a special costume now, so she could only use a ribbon as a substitute.
Since then, she had not danced the Startled Swan dance again. She was already very unfamiliar with it, but the experience of practicing the Startled Swan dance was too deep and still vivid in her mind. She picked up the ribbon and danced a few moves.
As the ribbon flew through the air, it danced like a cloud. Qiao Ai quickly found the feeling, as if she had returned to the time when she was filming…
Yu Zhou's handsome brows furrowed slightly. He seemed to have recalled something. No wonder he felt that this woman looked familiar. Wasn't she the actress who danced the Startled Swan dance back then? She had left an impression on him with her dedication.
It was just that he seemed to have deleted his scenes and forgotten about it.
He didn't expect to see her here. It seemed that she hadn't achieved much in this industry. He looked down at her resume and realized that her name was Qiao Ai.
It was also a coincidence that he was able to be the interviewer today. There was a role in the show that the designated actor could not come because of a schedule problem. After thinking about it, he was prepared to use a new face. Coincidentally, he had nothing to do in the afternoon, so he simply came to watch the interview, hoping to meet a good seedling!
Qiao Ai only danced a little. She hadn't danced for a long time, so her muscles hadn't stretched. She was very stiff. The reason she had to dance was mostly because she was angry. She wanted to remind Yu Zhou that he was the reason she was in this state! However, after dancing, she felt that she was ridiculous. Yu Zhou was now a famous director, so who was she? She really thought too highly of herself.
After the dance, it was obvious that the other interviewers didn't like it. It was obvious that this interviewee hadn't practiced dancing for a long time, yet she still had the cheek to take it out. She gave her a big cross in her heart.
"Thank you, you can leave now!" The middle-aged woman spoke again.
Qiao Ai heaved a sigh of relief. She put the ribbon back in its original position, bowed to them, and left.
She knew that she had failed the interview again!
***
Qiao Ai was in a bad mood when she left the building.
She reached out and hailed a taxi, returning to the small suite she shared with Chen Yao.
The rental house was located in the Laocheng District of the western part of the city. It was an old house.
Qiao Ai looked up at the dilapidated old house hidden in the darkness and sighed softly.
The corridor was filled with junk, and the voice-activated light above his head did not light up. It was broken again!
She had no choice but to take out her phone to illuminate the road and carefully avoid the debris.
She opened the door with the key. The lights were not turned on in the room, and weak light shone in through the window.
