Jiang Zhi looked at her awkward expression and actually found it somewhat cute. She coughed lightly to cover up the smile on her face.

“Of course it counts. Get ready to audition with Wu Dai.”

A hint of joy quickly flashed across Jiang Xue’s deathly silent face. She could finally act.

She immediately took out her phone and contacted the team, her stylists, and her wardrobe department. She also wanted to do an in-depth beauty treatment. Jiang Xue only felt that there was not enough time.

Jiang Zhi directly took Jiang Xue’s phone, cut off the call, and threw it back to Jiang Xue.

“Jiang Xue, you have to learn to stand in front of the public with your own face.”

“Do you think anyone would want to see this face on the big screen?”

Jiang Xue pursed her lips, and a self-deprecating look flashed in her eyes as she asked sharply in return.

“Jiang Xue, what is your current aim. Where do you think you stand among the female stars?”

Jiang Zhi’s scrutinizing gaze landed on Jiang Xue’s skin, which had been damaged by her ailing career and heavy smoking. When she had recommended this role to Jiang Xue back then, part of the reason was because of how well she could pass as a mother.

“Have you forgotten why you don’t get any scenes? Firstly, it’s because of your awkward age, and secondly, it’s because your acting skills aren’t considered top-notch!”

Jiang Zhi gently pinched Jiang Xue’s chin and lifted her face slightly. Her eyes were not filled with the disgust and revulsion that Jiang Xue had expected.

“In the entertainment industry, there has always been no shortage of beauties. Even if you were to be beautified every day, you would not be able to compare to a teenage girl who is filled with collagen. Therefore, you have to accept your strengths instead! Take pride in it, wield it like a weapon!”

Jiang Zhi’s words made Jiang Xue waver a little. She looked into Jiang Zhi’s determined eyes and nodded slowly.

Perhaps Jiang Zhi was right…

Once the news of the public audition for “The Afterlife” was released, almost all the actors and rookies in the industry, from the C-list to the A-list, started to move.

The popularity of “Beacon” seemed to have happened just yesterday. The phrase “Director Zheng’s work”, had now become a bellwether for the entertainment industry.
