Qi Shu laughed. “The next judge is music-related. He’s a good friend of mine that I’ve worked with many times.”
The man wearing black-framed glasses had a plain face, but his eyes were sharp.
Su Xi, a gold medal producer in the music industry. He has produced many number one selling albums and won countless awards.
Qi Shu didn’t continue to boast about him. “The producer of this film, Dong Xian, is also one of the judges.”
Dong Xian stepped out in a simple t-shirt and jeans, but her aura as a strong independent woman was not to be ignored.
She was an internationally renowned film producer who had worked with Director Qin AN several times and now came here to find the most suitable candidate.
“We have another judge. An international Film Emperor. A top-tier star.”
Sounds of discussion broke out below. There weren’t many international Film Emperors to begin with, so they were wondering whether it would be the young He Han or a veteran film star.
“But…” Qi Shu paused. “He doesn’t have free time in his schedule right now and can’t come over.”
The contestants were a little disappointed but their enthusiasm was soon rekindled.
Qi Shu continued to speak. He was witty and was good at moving the atmosphere so everyone loosened up quickly.
Qi Shu, “This is a rare opportunity for everyone to have a fair competition. Everyone has the opportunity to get the role as the leading actress of ‘Born Like a Flame’.”
Winning the “Superstar Project” means that you are a standout among so many people, and it was enough to prove your strength.
Moreover, as long as you get the role, it’s equivalent to getting the approval of Director Qin An, and you can already anticipate a bright future ahead in acting afterwards.
Everyone here came just for that title.
At this moment, Qi Shu said, “Remember, don’t be nervous. I wish everyone a happy competition.”
Qi Shu swept a glance at everyone. “Now. Let me introduce the rules of the show.”
Everyone was looking at Qi Shu.
Qi Shu, “The first preliminary round will be the makeup photos. You have to pick your own clothes, then someone will lead you over for a photoshoot.”
Qi Shu’s words were clear. “Someone will score you guys. Only 12 people will be left after this round. The rest of you will be eliminated.”
Everyone was shocked. What? Only twelve people left? More than half of them were going to be eliminated straight out.
Ye Fan’s brows tightened. This was even more competitive of a competition than she thought. This means that some people won’t even be able to record the first episode at all.
It was really cruel to be eliminated directly after stepping through the door.
Ye Fan took a deep breath. She had to stabilize her mind and go slowly so as not to mess up.
The newcomers were all frowning. It took them a lot to get here to compete for the role, and to compete with other stars. This is a chance they wouldn’t even dare to hope for usually so they had to give it their all.
Everyone had differing thoughts.
Qi Shu pointed his finger to the back. “You see that building in the back?”
Everyone turned around. Ye Fan also turned to look at the building erected just a few hundred meters away.
Qi Shu swept his gaze over everyone and continued. “You are going to go inside that building and find clothes that suit you. Then, get changed in the dressing room and return here. After that, we’ll take you all for the makeup shoot.”
At this moment, Qi Shu’s expression turned serious, and so did his tone. “Remember, you only have ten minutes.”
“You must return within the allotted time or you will be eliminated.”
The preliminary competition was to train the psychological qualities of the participants. They had to be resilient enough to make the right choices even under major pressure.
If they can’t even pass this hurdle, then there was no need to even talk about working on a top film like “Born Like a Flame”.
Ten minutes?
Everyone was stunned. They all had the same thought. The time was too short.
First off, picking out an outfit takes time, and it’s hard enough to find a suitable dress in a short amount of time, not to mention the fact that they had so many people fighting with them.
Add to that was the time they needed to spend changing clothes and going back and forth. Ten minutes really wasn’t enough.
Qi Shu looked at his watch. “There are a limited number of outfits and time. Those who are late won’t be given a second chance.”
“Alright. The timer starts now!”
As soon as his voice fell, they all turned around and quickened their steps towards the building.
Qi Shu watched their backs and the corners of his lips curved up into a smile.
Whoever was strong and whoever had a shallow reputation will soon be revealed in this competition.
He glanced over Ye Fan seemingly carelessly and retracted his gaze.
Qi Shu laughed. “The next judge is music-related. He’s a good friend of mine that I’ve worked with many times.”
