Chapter 288 Audition

However, the heat in August slowly dropped again.

This did not bring any substantial help to Liu Jianglin.

Although many people have seen a new Asian face, there are already a shortage of Asian characters and actors in film and television dramas here.

Michelle helped Liu Jianglin contact several auditions, but in the end Liu Jianglin was eliminated.

All in all, there are various reasons.

Acting skills are only one of the considerations.

Some producers even said to her face: "You are too beautiful. We don't want a supporting character who is more attractive than the protagonist."

This is the most direct problem Liu Jianglin faces.

Leading actors may not like supporting actors like her, because she will steal their limelight and attention.

There is really no way around this.

No one wants to give her a chance.

She was stunned for a moment.

She hasn't fallen into such a state of despair yet.

There are fewer good-looking Asian characters than Asian characters.

She asked Michelle to help her take on the role, and as long as there was a suitable acting opportunity, she was willing to star in it for a low salary.

Michelle said that the director of "Moon Knight" took the initiative to contact her and invited Liu Jianglin to audition.

Liu Jianglin refused directly.

This is an audition for the movie "Moon Knight", which is a fantasy-themed movie. There is a character in it who is a mountain ghost from mysterious China, a kind of existence similar to a goblin.

This is the current situation that exists in this environment. It is a kind of racial discrimination, or labeling impression, that is accepted by many people. However, despite this, there is nothing that can be done.

"It seems like this." Liu Jianglin said.

The director said: "It doesn't matter. I saw you with my own eyes today. Your appearance is indeed very similar to what I want. I heard that you are already a very famous actor in China?"

Liu Jianglin also had nothing to say.

"Have you seen that movie?" Liu Jianglin asked.

So far, no domestic producers have offered her a role.

About two weeks later, Michelle contacted her for another audition opportunity.

Compared with when she first came to the United States, the domestic evaluation of her is even more harsh now, and they directly think that she is possessed by the god of mold.

"Mehemet told me that he watched one of your Chinese movies in the UK. You played a character similar to a mountain ghost in it. It was so amazing that everyone who watched the movie held their breath.

I must see you."

When they arrived at the audition, the director nicely communicated with her and said that he thought of her because Mehmet Adelson recommended her.

Liu Jianglin did not expect that this opportunity was recommended by Mehmet.

Liu Jianglin was surprised.

The director shook his head: "No, I haven't found this movie on the Internet. Has it not been released yet?"

In September, Michelle asked Liu Jianglin if he would shoot an advertisement, either as a spokesperson or as a model in commercials. In order to highlight diversity, many advertisements now hire people from many different countries and regions to serve as models, creating a kind of

A sense of group image.

"It's not bad." Liu Jianglin said modestly, "It's a little famous."

Liu Jianglin must find opportunities here, swim against the current, and persist in this career.

Director: "It doesn't matter. Can I ask you to try out a scene now? I want to see what it feels like to perform."

Liu Jianglin nodded: "Of course, no problem, what should I do now?"

The director took out a piece of A4 paper and handed it to Liu Jianglin.

"Prepare this line and tell me when you're ready," he said.
