Chapter 292: With Sister Youlan Around, She Doesn’t Have Much Hope

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

From her past experiences, the system did indeed have very strict management.

Although the system had its own consciousness, it could not abuse its own functions.

Jiang Xun: “Why are you still her and not applying for a skill test for me?!”

System: “…”

This host turned hostile faster than flipping through a book.

The system returned after about 10 minutes.

The system said, “Host, with my perseverance and hard work, I’ve finally applied for you. The system store can open the skill category for you once for free. You can choose a skill from the category to look up. As for how much of it you can try, it will depend on the skill you look up.”

Jiang Xun rubbed her fists and urged, “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and open the skill category!”

The system was already used to Jiang Xun’s dog-like personality. It even felt that she and Mufeng were just the same and were attracted to each other.

These two dogs coincidentally formed a pair.

Otherwise, someone else wouldn’t be able to control them at all.

System: “It’s already opened now. You can enter the system store to check at any time.”

Jiang Xun entered the system store without hesitation and clicked on the skill category.

Just as she had expected, there were performing skills in the skill category.

She had guessed that the system would provide different skill points to the host according to the host’s characteristics.

The skills provided were focused on matching the host’s own abilities.

However, it was rare for the skill category to be released for free. Jiang Xun was not in a hurry to choose performing skills. Instead, she first looked through the names of all the skill books in the skill category.

She roughly understood what skills were in her skill category.

After looking through them, Jiang Xun chose acting skills.

Each skill was displayed in the category list as a book.

After Jiang Xun chose acting skills, the list of acting skills appeared in her mind.

Eye acting.

Big expression acting.

Micro expression acting.

Large action acting.

Small action acting.

Happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy acting, etc.

Based on Jiang Xun’s current acting skills, she felt that the most difficult part for her was eye acting.

Up until now, the two roles she had acted in had actually used more of her cold and heartless eyes.

It was also her good luck that she didn’t need to challenge the more complicated aspect of being eye acting.

Knowing that she had such a weakness, Jiang Xun naturally had to make up for it.

However, the eye acting was not only for newbies like Jiang Xun, but also for all actors. It was an extremely difficult part.

Jiang Xun opened “eye acting,” but she did not expect that it was not a method to be transmitted directly into her brain and automatically learned. Instead, it was a serious lesson.

The better thing was that the teaching was transmitted directly into Jiang Xun’s brain, so Jiang Xun did not have to try her best to remember it.

These contents were deeply imprinted in Jiang Xun’s brain, and she could take them out and learn them whenever she wanted to.

Thus, during the period before the audition, Jiang Xun used all her free time to practice her eye movements.

While practicing, Jiang Xun sighed, “I didn’t expect the system to have such a good view of the world, and it refuses to provide any method of getting something for nothing.”

The system: “…”

He didn’t expect this unstingy host to see such an outstanding side of the system.

This was a side that many hosts didn’t see.

Many hosts realized that they had to rely on themselves to learn skills after obtaining them, and they all shouted that they had been deceived by the system.

Only Jiang Xun felt that the system had a good outlook on life and wouldn’t allow the host to gain something without doing anything.

The system felt that the host could still be accepted and was not completely unscrupulous.

On the day of the audition, Jiang Xun brought Xin’an along and took her commercial car to the audition venue.

The driver parked the car in front of the audition building and Xin’an followed Jiang Xun out of the car.

Jiang Xun was afraid of being late, so she came early. Before Jiang Xun arrived, the staff had already arranged for Jiang Xun to wait in the lounge.

Perhaps it was because Haolun and Zilong were good friends, or perhaps it was because of Mufeng, but they arranged for Jiang Xun to be in a separate waiting room. She didn’t mingle with the other actors who were auditioning.

“Jiang Jiang, do you want to drink something? I’ll buy it for you,” Xin’an asked.

“No need. I don’t want drink too much water. Otherwise, if I need to go to the toilet later, my work will be delayed,” Jiang Xun said.

At this moment, Haolun’s assistant brought some tea over. “Teacher Jiang, please have some tea first. If you need anything else, just let me know.”

“Thank you,” Jiang Xun thanked her.

Youlan was accompanied by her assistant. Coincidentally, she was also led to the entrance of the lounge by a staff member.

Before entering, Youlan saw Jiang Xun sitting inside. Haolun’s assistant was very polite to Jiang Xun.

It was Youlan’s first time meeting Jiang Xun, but she recognized her at a glance. However, she still acted as if she didn’t know her. She asked the staff next to her, “Which teacher is the one inside?”

Youlan smiled and said, “I haven’t been in the TV drama circle for a long time, so I don’t know much about the teachers in the TV drama circle.”

The staff thought to herself, “Look at the tone of this movie star. She is pretending to be high and mighty.”

In the noble film industry, people who had never been in the television industry did not know much about the television industry.

“That’s Jiang Xun, Teacher Jiang,” the staff member said.

“Jiang Xun?” Youlan muttered, “The name sounds familiar.”

The staff member did not say anything else. She did not need to talk to Youlan about Jiang Xun’s gossip.

Seeing that the staff member did not respond, Youlan said, “I remember now. So she’s Jiang Xun. She actually came to audition. What role is she auditioning for?”

“The same as you. She’s here to audition for Lin Xuyan,” the staff member said. After all, there was nothing that could not be said.

“She’s auditioning for Lin Xuyan?” Youlan’s assistant laughed. Her voice was full of contempt. “With Sister Youlan around, she doesn’t have much hope.”

“Xiaoxiao!” Youlan pretended to stop her. “Don’t say that.”

Xiaoxiao pouted. “I’m just saying it here. I won’t spread it. Besides, Sister Youlan, your acting skills have been meticulously honed in the film industry. As long as you want to play the role of Lin Xuyan, I can’t think of anyone who can compete with you. Even if it’s not based on popularity, and purely based on acting skills, no one can compete with you.”

In the film industry, those who could compete with Youlan in terms of acting skills were not suitable for the role of Xuyan in terms of age.

Those who were suitable for the role were few and far between in the film industry.

Therefore, the position of Youlan was really in the right place at the right time. It just so happened that no one was more suitable than her.

It was often said that she was the chosen one in the entertainment industry.

When everyone said this, their tone was filled with envy. Youlan had a high starting point as a child star. When she became an adult, her beauty had not deteriorated. She was the only one in the film industry with film resources. Moreover, in the film industry, very few people could match her style.
