Chapter 499: It’s Showtime!
At this moment, Xaviera Evans pulled out her computer and quickly typed a few lines on the keyboard.
Anna Campbell adjusted the angle and said to the camera, “I want to advise Miss Evans that to become an actress, you cannot simply rely on your looks. You also need real talent. If you want to succeed, you should study more, improve your acting skills, and not always think of taking shortcuts.”
Xaviera pressed the Enter key.
The entire live-stream room went dark instantly, the host and Anna Campbell didn’t notice and continued chatting.
Anna showed her magnanimity, “Although Miss Evans tried to snatch my role, I don’t blame her anymore. I hope this kind of thing won’t happen again. The entertainment industry needs real talent, not just connections!”
The fans in the live-stream room kept cursing Xaviera, just typing [Get lost, bitch Evans]
Before they could even finish typing, the live-stream room collapsed, and then the fans found a security video on screen which they couldn’t force to close.
Inside the Lowen Clubhouse, Xaviera grinned meaningfully.
Showtime!
It was only at this moment that the audience found their electronic devices to be seemingly infected with a virus, unable to turn off or send bullet functions, and forced to watch this surveillance video.
The video showed the audition area, with the director and producer seated in their chairs, waiting for the next contestant to enter.
Suddenly, a person appeared in the surveillance footage, and everyone’s eyes widened when they realized it was Xaviera Evans, the protagonist of the role-snatching story.
How could she be in the audition area? Was she planning to cause trouble?
As everyone made their guesses, Xaviera walked to the center of the room and started a performance.
She was actually auditioning, and the role she was auditioning for was the sister of best actor winner Elijah Flack’s character. Although it had only a few lines, Xaviera was able to completely express the character’s image and emotions. Even in front of best actor winner Elijah Flack, she did not pale, and it seemed as if she had breathed life into the role.
This was best actor winner Elijah Flack, the actor who was acknowledged domestically and internationally for his outstanding acting skills and good looks, the ceiling everyone in the domestic acting world looked up to. Even in a scene with him, she did not appear weak. On the contrary, Xaviera seemed to be the real protagonist, with Elijah just a supporting character, and all the attention was on her.
It was only then that everyone realized how extraordinary Xaviera’s acting was.
After the scene ended, the director and producer stood up and applauded enthusiastically. They even took out the contract immediately, and both parties happily agreed to the role and told Xaviera to come for filming in two days.
The security video ended, and the live-stream room returned to normal.
At this point, Anna Campbell was showing everyone her backyard without looking at the bullet screen.
[Did everyone see that? What was that just now? Was it a video of Xaviera auditioning?]
[I think she acted very well… why… why are they saying she has no real talent?]
[Even if she is talented, it’s her fault for stealing Anna’s role, and Anna was the first to get that role!]
[Why did the live-stream suddenly stop? Who showed us that video?]
Just after a few bullet comments were sent, the live-stream was cut off again, followed by another security video.
The surveillance was still from the audition area, but this time the person entering was Anna Campbell. The fans were overjoyed – it wasn’t easy to see Anna’s audition clips.
Though the timestamp of the surveillance video showed it was from yesterday, one day later than Xaviera, maybe Anna had reserved the role a long time ago!
Next
Anna Campbell’s audition began, and it was instantly disappointing. She couldn’t even recite her lines, just mumbling a few sentences. Then, she skillfully applied eye drops to her eyes and pretended to cry in sorrow. The directors present all looked embarrassed.
People in front of the screen were stunned.
[Wasn’t Anna very dedicated? How come she needs eye drops to cry? And her fans are saying her acting is very good and that she’s a workaholic? Is this supposed to be good acting?]
[She just said Xaviera had no acting skills, when the one who really has no acting skills is herself!]
The brain-dead fans still tried to defend her: [Anna is just too busy, and she didn’t have time to memorize the script. Once she formally takes this role, she will definitely memorize her lines proficiently. How could Xaviera, a newcomer, have better acting skills than Anna? Besides, even if she is talented, it still can’t cover up the fact that Xaviera sold her body for the role!]
