Tan Ming smiled and did not really greet him. Instead, she glanced sideways at Jiang Huai.

Seeing this, Jiang Huai interrupted, Look at me. I havent seen you in a long time and forgot to introduce you. Anan, this is Director Dongs capable a.s.sistant director.

Tan Ming smiled at Cao Leng and nodded slightly. h.e.l.lo, a.s.sistant Director Cao. My name is Anan.

Tan Mings smile was very amiable and comfortable to look at. Cao Leng nodded in response. Director Dong instructed me early this morning. Theres someone auditioning inside now. When she comes out later, itll be your turn. You dont have to queue with the others.

Cao Lengs words showed Director Dongs att.i.tude. He told Jiang Huai that Director Dong valued his request very much and even gave him special care.

Cao Leng arranged for the two of them to wait in the private lounge. After all, this was Tan Mings first audition. The closer it was to the time, the more nervous she could not help but be.

He had already encouraged her, but she was still nervous. Jiang Huai could only pat Tan Mings head and comfort her in an indifferent manner. Dont be afraid. At most, it will be a failure. You know that the big director has always been picky when it comes to casting. Its only because Im too capable and have worked with him before that I can skip his audition segment.

Tan Ming watched as Jiang Huai deliberately boasted about himself in front of her to make her calm down. Slowly, she relaxed again. Third Brother, I understand what you mean. Its known in the industry that anything Director Dong produces will definitely be top-notch. Such a director will definitely have many capable people partic.i.p.ating in the audition. It would be best if I can be chosen, but it doesnt mean anything if I cant. Its fine as long as I do my best. Seeing that Tan Ming had thought it through, Jiang Huai slapped his thigh happily. Thats right! Youve been going to cla.s.s crazily recently, Dad and Mom shoot daggers with their eyes when they look at me. If this makes you have another nervous breakdown, I think that dagger will become real.

Tan Ming chuckled. Third Brother, actually, I know what youre saying. Being too nervous sometimes affects your performance. The more calm you are, the better your performance. Its just that I really hope to achieve results as soon as I can, so I cant help but feel a little anxious.

Actually, Tan Ming was no longer a little anxious. It was so serious that it affected her breast milk. Now, the baby already had to rely on a combination of breast milk and milk powder. She would probably have to switch to feeding with purely milk powder after a while.

When Jiang Huai saw that Tan Mings expression had indeed relaxed, he nodded in relief. With Third Brother around, you dont have to be afraid that you wont have a chance to film anything! At most, well make a drama ourselves. When the time comes, Ill get Dad and Mom to invest money and find a screenwriter to tailor a script for you. Well also make a big production and let everyone see our Miss Jiangs strength!

Less than ten minutes later, Cao Leng, who had gone out, returned. Jiang Huai, Anan, you can follow me to the audition room now.

After the conversation just now, Tan Ming felt that her state of mind was different. It was significantly better than before. She followed him into the room.

Jiang Huai greeted the director and producer in a low voice, chatted briefly, and then sat quietly on a chair in the corner.

Tan Ming looked at the five people sitting at the long table in front of her. She first bowed politely before starting to introduce herself.

After noting down basic information about Tan Ming, the middle-aged man wearing a cap smiled kindly and said, Please begin your performance.

Tan Ming lowered her head and began to search for the character she wanted to play. After about a minute, when Tan Ming looked up again, the gentleness and obedience in her eyes had completely disappeared. It was only filled with darkness and hatred for the world.

Windward was a mystery drama. The male lead, Shen Zheng, was a police officer. The third female lead, Shen Yi, was the male leads biological sister. She was a fourth-year student doing an interns.h.i.+p. After her parents divorced, she lived with her mother and was accidentally involved in a murder case that the male lead was investigating.

The difficulty of Shen Yis character was that she had a dissociative ident.i.ty disorder. The scene that Tan Ming needed to perform was the first time Shen Yi split into a second personality and then returned to her main personality.

The performance lasted about six minutes. After Tan Mings performance, the room was silent.

Tan Ming looked at everyones expressionless faces and swallowed nervously.

The suited man turned to look at the man in the cap. Director Dong, what do you think?

Director Dong came back to his senses. Every director had their own special habits, and his habit was that he did not like to use newcomers. When Jiang Huai asked him for an audition chance, he found out that Tan Ming was a newcomer. Although he was a little resistant in his heart, he could not reject him out of their cooperative relations.h.i.+p, so he agreed in the end..
