Jolin came after her, trying to get back his silk scarf when he saw Gu Weiwei entering the audition room, and he noticed that she had the silk scarf covering her face, showing only a pair of eyes. That annoyed him extremely.
The casting director and the executive director looked at each other, confused at the sight of the actress – was she here to play games?
The chief director Yi An did not change his expression, but said to her when he saw her standing in position, “You can begin now.”
The audition was on the spot, and most of the time Tang Shaoqi was wearing a mask and her emotions were only shown through her eyes.
Only with close-up shooting were they able to see how well the actress was playing.
And this actress on audition had surprised him – she arrived with her face covered.
Gu Weiwei picked up the sword from the shelf and took a deep breath with her eyes closed.
Then she opened her eyes again, looking lethal.
Then she waved the sword and chopped around, making each move sharp and fierce.
She was playing against the air alone, yet she looked as if she were going through a ruthless slaughter.
She looked lethal from both her look and the movements.
Suddenly, she made a chopping yet got stuck in the midair.
That was when the male lead character arrived and stopped her, saving the girl from her sword.
Gu Weiwei shivered as she was holding the sword, and her crystal-clear eyes reflected with slightly shrinking pupils, looking both shocked and joyed.
She opened her mouth and spoke the only line of this scene.
The cold voice was thronged with shivering and sobbing.
“Are you going to save her?”
….
Yi An, who had been maintaining a cold expression showed a face of surprise and joy as if he had discovered something precious.
The executive director had not paid much attention to this Black Swan when he had heard about her from the casting director.
But the moment the girl started to perform, he became so dumbfounded that he just could not move his eyes away from her.
She was sharp and clean in martial arts, and she was so capable in playing the follower of the court.
But the moment she saw the man in her heart, her lethal look turned different, gripping people’s hearts.
Gu Weiwei finished the performance, bowed and was about to leave.
“Hang on.” Yi An called out to her.
Gu Weiwei stopped, removed the mask over her face and asked with a smile.
“Yes, Director Yi?”
Yi An saw the girl’s amazing face and demanded.
“Can you repeat the last scene without the mask?”
Gu Weiwei nodded, gave Jolin the silk scarf and came back to the camera.
Yi An instructed the angle of shooting and said to her. “Now, you can begin.”
Gu Weiwei took a deep breath, and her look turned lethal as if seeing the man she had been longing for against the camera.
Within one moment, her look reflected different emotions, gripping people’s hearts.
“Are you going to save her?”
Without the mask, she had even more influence over people’s emotions, when speaking that line.
Also, her face was born to make her a movie star.
After Yi An saw the scene from the camera, he came over to her and offered her his hands as he said, “Mu Weiwei, you will take the role.”
Shen Qiu had moved him, but Mu Weiwei’s performance had conquered him.
Her performance had told him that she was exactly Tang Shaoqi.
The casting director, who had been laughing at her, flushed as he stood to the side, totally embarrassed.
Jolin showed an amazed expression – honestly, he had just brought her so as to go through a formality!
