“Miss Lu Zhen, the director is interviewing others. Please wait a moment.” A staff member with a gentle smile served Lu Zhen a cup of black tea and explained politely.

Lu Zhen thought: As expected, she’s not the only one who came for the interview today.

Although the role of the “back-view goddess” had only appeared for a short period of time in the movie, Director Jiang Wen attached great importance to this role. He spent no less effort on this role than he did on the male and female leads.

Therefore, in order to choose the most perfect “back-view goddess”, Director Jiang Wen would definitely expand the screening range. Chu Yuan had said before that Jiang Wen had gone to almost all the film universities in the country.

Lu Zhen clenched her fists nervously. After about five minutes, the door of the audition room opened. Lu Zhen saw Xu Rui walk out of the room.

In her previous life, Xu Rui had played the role of the ‘back-view goddess’.

Before she played the role of the “back-view goddess”, Xu Rui was just a newcomer who had just debuted. She didn’t even have a representative work.

However, after ’99 Love Letters’ was released, Xu Rui became famous overnight and became a famous celebrity. From then on, her acting career was smooth-sailing and famous directors came to her to work with her.

It had to be said that the reason why Xu Rui could play the role of the “back-view goddess” was not entirely because of luck.

Xu Rui studied music and violin, so she had an artistic temperament. She looked very fresh and refined. This was very compatible with the role of the “back-view goddess.” In terms of temperament, she had defeated many competitors.

Moreover, Xu Rui looked pure and sweet. Although she was not a beauty, she was still very good-looking on camera. There were no flaws in her looks.

Other than that, there was another point that was also very outstanding. Her figure was especially good. Her neck was slender like a white swan, and her figure was light and upright. This added a lot to her temperament.

All in all, Lu Zhen also felt that Xu Rui was indeed very suitable for the back view goddess.

And now, she was competing with Xu Rui for this role.

Lu Zhen took a deep breath to calm her complicated emotions. Then, she slowly stood up and walked to the audition room.

Xu Rui also saw Lu Zhen. A surprised expression appeared on her face. Then, she stared at Lu Zhen for a long time. Just as the two of them were about to brush past each other, Xu Rui smiled. “Lu Zhen, you’re here for an interview too? I really didn’t expect to see you here. I like your television dramas and movies very much.”

To Xu Rui, Lu Zhen was considered a senior in the circle, so Xu Rui’s attitude was more polite.

Lu Zhen smiled kindly. “Yes, I’m also here to audition for Director Jiang Wen’s role.”

“Then I wish you a good ending.” Although Xu Rui knew that Lu Zhen would be auditioning for the role of the “back-view goddess” later, her smile remained unchanged.

“Thank you.” Lu Zhen expressed her gratitude and didn’t say anything else to Xu Rui. She turned around and walked into the room.

Perhaps others could not tell the complicated emotions in Xu Rui’s expression, but Lu Zhen had acted for so many years and could tell at a glance. There was a hint of disdain in Xu Rui’s eyes. This disdain did not carry any strong malice. It was just the confidence of an expert.

Because in Xu Rui’s opinion, no one was more suitable for this role than her. Even though Lu Zhen was very beautiful, Lu Zhen’s temperament was not good, and the most important thing about the role of “back-view goddess” was her temperament.

Xu Rui smiled confidently at Lu Zhen’s back and turned to leave Lu Zhen, even though you’ve been famous for many years, not all the roles suit you. I’m afraid you’ll have made a wasted trip today.

When she walked into the room, Lu Zhen immediately saw the four people sitting behind the table. The man in the middle was in his forties and wore a felt hat. Lu Zhen knew that he was Director Jiang Wen. The other old lady with gray hair looked kind and amiable, exuding elegance and wisdom.

The rest were a young man and woman. The two of them looked to be in their thirties. The man had an indulgent and casual smile on his face, while the woman’s expression was serious and cold. After Lu Zhen entered, she sized her up with a critical and mean gaze.

“Lu Zhen?” The young man flipped through the information on the table. “I didn’t expect you to come. Director Jiang Wen is so impressive!”

Lu Zhen said calmly, “I should be the one thanking Director Jiang Wen for giving me this interview. I’m still a newcomer in the film industry. Please guide me..”
