Eden never thought of Joyce saying such an outrageous thing among the crowd.
Everyone changed their mind. Joyce didn't fancy him, and it was just Eden's imagination.
Eden was ashamed. With a cold snort, Eden turned around and left.
"Joyce, you're screwed!" Marina dropped these words viciously and hurriedly followed Eden.
After two of them were gone, a little girl beside Joyce said worriedly, "Do you know who he is? I heard that men were the biggest investor in this drama! You said those words. Are you not afraid of losing your acting chance?"
"Doesn't matter," Joyce shrugged, "Isn't the director Patrick Blake? I heard he is fair. I believe him."
"Director Patrick may not offend the biggest investor for a small role." Another said.
Except for Elaine Christ, the roles they chose this time were not essential. It was not important who played those roles. No one thought Patrick would have a conflict with Eden.
Joyce smiled lightly and didn't say anything.
She was shocked that when she was quarreling with Eden, the director Patrick happened to arrive at the hotel with a few judges. They saw the whole process.
"This girl..." Patrick was in a trance.
"I think she is suitable for the earlier 'Elaine Christ'." A judge said.
"But the early 'Elaine Christ' is not that difficult to perform. Many actors can do well. It became difficult after her identity changed to a villain. A normal actor can't handle it easily. The actor needs to have a strong aura." Another judge said.
Patrick nodded regretfully. It was difficult to cast the right actor for 'Elaine Christ.' There were suitable candidates among the well-known actors. But they were generally not young anymore. 'Elaine Christ' was a young girl. Patrick wanted to find an actor who fit the age of the character.
Patrick arranged this audition to find a suitable actor. If there is no right candidate, he can only compromise.
Joyce didn't know she had already made a deep impression on Patrick before auditioning.
After the judges arrived, the audition began. Joyce found that Eden had taken Marina directly into the room for a long time. She didn't care too much.
The process went fast. A person for about one minute, and the longest one would only take a few minutes.
Joyce looked at the people who finished the audition. Some of them ecstatic. The others were frustrated. But Joyce didn't feel nervous, and she felt inexplicably relaxed. It seemed there was no challenge at all.
Joyce thought she would finally gain this chance with a kind of intuition. Her intuition had never gone wrong.
More girls finished their auditions. Soon, she was the only one left. When Joyce was about to go in, she saw Marina come out arrogantly.
At this moment, Marina naturally realized that Joyce was here to audition. She came to Joyce and said arrogantly, "Joyce, I advise you to leave early! No matter which role you audition for, you will never pass!"
"So you've passed? "Joyce smiled.
"They have already let me pass in private. I don't need an audition!" Marina was more proud, "My role is 'Elaine Christ'. She is an important character. I will be famous! Not you! You will fail!"
Joyce's eyes darkened, "You can't get this role, even with Eden's help. "
"Why?!" Marina was furious.
Joyce smiled, "Because I will win this role." After saying this, she calmly opened the door and walked in.
"Damn it!" Marina was about to get a heart attack. Now it was Joyce's turn. She has to find a way to make Joyce fail. She took out her phone and quickly sent a message to Eden.
Joyce walked in, and her eyes swept across the judges.
There are four judges in total. The one in the middle should be Director Patrick. The two next to him must also be part of the team. Damn! The last judge was Eden!
Joyce was surprised. Although she knew that the Edens had invested a lot in this drama, she didn't know that he had the right to choose the actor.
However, she believed Patrick would think she was qualified.
"Hi, everyone. My name is Joyce. I'm 19 years old, and the role I want to audition for is 'Elaine Christ'." Joyce said generously.
Patrick's eyes lit up. He had a good impression of Joyce before. He wanted her to play this role. He picked up the script and said, "I will pick one of the fragments..."
"Wait." Looking at his phone, Eden suddenly raised his head and interrupted him.
"You said you wanted to audition for the role of 'Elaine Christ'?" Eden asked.
"Yes." Joyce nodded.
Eden smiled evilly," 'Everyone,' Elaine Christ' is a big villain. She is agile. And there were many action scenes in the later chapters. I suggest picking one of them as an audition fragment. Casting good actors at action scenes will make the formal shooting go well."
Patrick frowned in embarrassment. He knew Eden was deliberately embarrassing Joyce.
Although Eden is the largest investor, he did not interfere with their casting before. When it came to Joyce, he immediately added conditions. Patrick knew Eden wanted to embarrass her on purpose because of the previous dispute.
"But previous actors didn't need to audition for action scenes. It doesn't seem fair… "Patrick said.
"No one has passed the audition before this role, right?" Eden sneered.
"But where to find an action actor to be her partner now?" Patrick's brows furrowed tighter.
"We are concerned about her acting skills, not others. We can find a hotel security guard. I'll remind them not to be rude." Eden looked at Joyce viciously.
