After Li Zhao won the Golden Magnolia Award, he did not take on roles as frequently as before. He discussed with the studio team and tried to limit it to one or two films a year.

Feng Xi naturally understood what Li Zhao meant and chose more carefully when helping her accept the drama.

"Zhaozhao, Director M Country Sirik has contacted me and wants to collaborate on a movie with you. I took a look at the script and thought you would like it. I have sent it to your email. You have time to read it carefully."

Li Zhao received a call from Sister Xi and was a little surprised to hear Director Slick.

Director Slick is a well-known director in the world. The actors he has worked with are all very well-known internationally. Some of them even became famous in his movies, leaping from unknown little actors to international stars. .

Whether domestic or foreign, many actors are eager to appear in his movies and increase their international reputation.

Unexpectedly, the director now took the initiative to contact her.

Li Zhao finished her work and went to see the mailbox sent to her by Sister Xi, which contained the movie script sent by Director Slick.

This is also a subject that Li Zhao has never been exposed to, fantasy horror movies.

The role that Director Slick wanted her to play was a pure villain. On the surface, she looked like a witch who was admired by everyone, but in fact she was a vicious and cruel villain.

This character is not the protagonist in the movie, she is at best the third female lead, but the character is very touching and made Li Zhao's eyes brighten.

After reading the script, Li Zhao immediately replied to Sister Xi.

Sister Xi knew that Zhao Zhao was interested in this role.

Director Sirik not only sent invitations to Li Zhao, but also to other well-known actresses in China.

In Slick's words, it means casting a wide net to find the most suitable actor.

Li Zhao accepted the invitation for this movie and was ready to audition.

Many scenes of this film were set up in China, so Director Slick personally interviewed these actresses.

Feng Xi knew that this audition was relatively competitive, so he personally accompanied Li Zhao to the audition venue.

Li Zhao looked at the serious-looking Sister Xi, feeling a little dazed. The two had worked together for so many years, and Sister Xi had accompanied her to auditions only a handful of times. Now that she took the initiative to accompany her to the audition, it was enough to see how much she attached importance to this role.

Compared with Feng Xi's nervousness and seriousness, Li Zhao seemed much more relaxed. Li Zhao had done all the preparations he needed to do. Whether he would be selected or not would depend on the director's wishes.

Director Slick is a short, fat man from the M country, with blond curly hair, blue eyes, and a smile on his face. He seems to be an old foreign man who is easy to get along with.

But being an internationally famous director and producing several world-famous films is not so easy to get along with on the surface.

No, Li Zhao had already seen several actresses he knew walking out of the audition room with ugly faces.

When these actresses saw Li Zhao, they couldn't help but sigh. An actress who had worked with him patted Li Zhao on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Zhao, this director has a bit of a weird temper and his requirements are also quite weird. You should be mentally prepared. "

Li Zhao's curiosity was aroused by what they said.

Entering the audition room, Li Zhao greeted the interviewing director and producer in English.

With a smile on his face, Slick pointed directly to the scene from the movie The Witch and the People's Speech.

This speech has more than 500 words. Li Zhao has also read this speech, but she has only memorized about seven or eight of the lines, not all of them.

There was no panic on her face, she mobilized her emotions, and quickly showed herself to be a witch who was trusted by the people and regarded as a saint.

His eyebrows are kind and his tone is gentle.

Li Zhao had just said a few lines when Director Sirik interrupted and told another scene for Li Zhao to perform.

It just so happens that, unlike the kindness and tenderness just now, in that section the witch burned the villagers and deliberately released evil spirits to massacre human beings. The whole person showed a sense of madness and enjoyment.

Li Zhao followed the director's words and aroused his emotions to the extreme, showing the witch's sinister and vicious state of playing with human life.

Just as the mood reached its peak, the director interrupted and asked Li Zhao to perform another scene.

At this time, Li Zhao finally understood why the person just now looked so bad after the audition.

Other directors' auditions are basically just a performance to see how expressive they are. Director Slick performed all stages of the character, and it had to be continuous, with only a minute or two of pauses in between.

After half an hour of auditioning, Li Zhao felt that he was almost the same as the witch in the movie, with a strange madness.

Feng Xi had been waiting outside the audition room. After waiting for more than half an hour, the door was finally opened.

Seeing Li Zhao walking out with red eyes, Feng Xi immediately went to greet him.

"What's going on? Are you being embarrassed by the director?"

Li Zhao shook his head and rubbed his eyes, "The director asked me to perform several clips from the movie. The emotional contrast between these clips was quite large."

Especially in the last scene, the protagonist is thrown into the sacred fire and burned, crying heartbreakingly and begging for mercy, and curses when he fails to beg for mercy.

Anyway, it was a crazy performance.

It's been a long time since Li Zhao has played such an emotional role. He even blended into the character and almost couldn't hold it back, which even shocked Director Slick.

Feng Xi was relieved when he heard this, thinking that he was being embarrassed by the director.

If Li Zhao knew what Sister Xi was thinking, he would definitely say that she was really embarrassed and acted in an awkward manner, which almost caused her to have a schizophrenia.

It didn't take long for Li Zhao to receive a reply from Director Slick. She passed the audition and the role of the witch was hers.

The movie was supposed to start shooting in March, and now it's January, with two months left.

During this period, Li Zhao happened to finish filming the drama he was still filming.

The news that Director Sirik selected actresses to star in his new movie in China was quickly reported by major media.

The paparazzi also photographed many domestic actresses with good reputations going for auditions, including Li Zhao, and now netizens couldn't sit still.

Many people don't know Slick, but they must have seen the movies he made. Even if they haven't seen the movies, they have heard the names of many classic characters in his movies.

Therefore, the fact that Slick is preparing to shoot a new movie and casting actors in China has dominated the hot searches for several days.

At this moment, Jin Yaxuan updated the news on her cooperation with Director Slick on Weibo.

Although Jin Yaxuan only played a small supporting role in the movie, it is very rare to be able to appear in the new movie directed by Slick.

Therefore, the news that Jin Yaxuan officially announced her cooperation with director Slick on Weibo immediately became a hot search topic.

Among them, many media broke the news that Li Zhao also participated in the audition, but there has been no news, and it was reported online that he was not selected.

Jin Yaxuan's ranking is similar to Li Zhao's, but her national popularity is not as high as Li Zhao's, and she has also won many awards.

This time Jin Yaxuan, who was nominated for Best Actress in Magnolia, was also among them, but the final winner was Li Zhao, so many netizens will compare her with Li Zhao.

Now, Jin Yaxuan has participated in the new movie directed by Slick, and her popularity will be international.

Fans of Jin Yaxuan are going crazy everywhere, eager to let everyone know that Jin Yaxuan has participated in the new movie directed by Slick.

Some Xuan fans even danced in front of Li fans, overtly and secretly trying to suppress Li Zhao and not be selected. From now on, they will not be on the same level as their sister Xuan.

Li fans looked at Xuan fans who kept jumping around and directly replied with two words: idiot.

The Xuan fans immediately exploded when they saw the attitude of the Li fans.

Fans of the two families started fighting on Weibo.

But the main reason is that Xuan fans are chasing after Li fans, saying how awesome their sister is and that she can participate in the new movie directed by Slick. However, Li Zhao failed to pass the audition and was only the best actress in the Golden Lan Award.

At this moment, director Slick's new film "The Good and the Evil" was officially announced and stated that a film press conference would be held in a week.
