Chapter 1695: Just Recommended
"Welcome to my audition, Miss Marlene Lonsdale. I am the emperor. This is our first meeting. You look better in person than on TV."
With Junci's personality, she couldn't say something like "It's my honor to have you here at the audition", but she could still say a few nice words.
Marlene is very beautiful. Even though she is over 50 this year, she looks like a woman in her early 40s. She is tall, slender and perfect. Her devilish figure is no worse than that of young people. Although there are some traces of time on her face, she does not deliberately cover them up. These fine lines are naturally revealed. There is a kind of grace and luxury in her gestures.
This is a woman who is aging gracefully. She is much more elegant than many women in Hollywood who try their best to keep their beauty.
Young people are world-famous beauties. Even now, others have to admire her beauty when they see her.
"You're welcome, Emperor."
When Ma Lin saw the Emperor, she smiled very gently: "You are a true genius, my God, I really didn't expect that one day I would be able to meet such an outstanding oriental director."
She stretched out her hand and shook hands with Jun Ci, and quickly explained her purpose: "I am a fan of your book. I know you are selecting actors this time. I am very interested in the role of Queen Beatrix in the book. I hope my audition performance will satisfy you."
"Oh?"
Jun Ci raised her eyebrows slightly. Queen Beatrix is a villain in her novel. She doesn't have too many scenes, but she plays a role in connecting the story line of the script. I didn't expect Ma Lin to like this role.
It shows that she has really read her own book.
It is difficult to choose this role without reading her own book.
"Okay, Miss Ma Lin, I will look forward to your performance."
After talking with Ma Lin, Jun Ci glanced at the long queue outside and told people to get ready.
She was holding an audition inside the branch of Bailaimen in Hollywood. This is not only a branch but also a prop library and shooting location. Basically, it is very convenient for audition.
With so many people, it was impossible to interview them all in one day. Jun Ci ordered the people in Bailaimen to distribute the interview cards, and she sat down and waited to watch the audition performance.
The order of the number cards was distributed according to the order of the actors. Even a big name like Ma Lin was ranked number 100. People thought that if it was according to Hollywood rules, such a big name would have been invited in by the producers long ago.
However, Bailaimen knew Jun Ci's work style very well, and there was no queue-jumping. No matter who it was, they had to queue up honestly.
Except that some stars asked their assistants to queue up, Ma Lin did the same.
They just had to sit aside and chat, and when it was their turn, they would go to the audition.
Laura and Bessie were ranked after number 200. They came early, but others came earlier.
Looking back, Laura roughly estimated that the number of people in this team was at least 500 or more, and many of them were stars who had already appeared in important TV series or movies. Even the big star Ma Lin Lonsdale was here.
The competition was huge. If it was based on fame and performance, Laura didn't think she had any chance.
However, Junci came to find her in person.
Bessie secretly helped her get information: "I asked, and they were all recommended. I don't think the emperor could have found everyone, right?"
