Chapter 1570: Chapter 1388: Good Looks, Acting Skills, and Resources

The man who came out to pick up Joanna Lawrence earlier was the director’s assistant, Maxwell.

Maxwell walked over and handed Joanna a stack of papers: "Take one from here and act according to the script written on it. The performance should last five minutes."

Joanna took a look at the stack of papers and casually chose one.

She lowered her head and saw a scene written on the paper.

It was a grieving scene where the female protagonist had to display her sorrow after losing her loved ones.

Five minutes of performance - not much time.

There’s not even enough time for her to get into the mood.

Joanna quickly memorized the lines, and heard the director ask, "Are you ready?"

"Yes, Director, I’m ready."

Joanna felt she was quite lucky today.

The draw was a crying scene - which happened to be her strong suit.

For others, shedding tears in a second might be challenging.

But for her, it was definitely not a problem.

Even Gary White once said that her most infectious performance was her crying scenes.

So, for Joanna, acting out a crying scene was her specialty.

"Good, let’s get started." Said the director.

Faye Lister moved aside.

Joanna stood in the center of the audition hall, and the moment the director said "Start", she took a deep breath, closed her eyes for a bit, and when she opened her eyes again, tears immediately rolled down her cheeks.

Her facial expressions changed instantly.

Within a few seconds, her eyes brimming with tears showed a mix of despair, pain, and on-the-verge-of-collapse emotions.

Her whole body suddenly went limp and collapsed on the floor.

"Why, why, God, why are you so cruel?" Joanna, no, it should be the female protagonist in the series, Yvonne White, howled in pain, "Why did you take away everyone I care the most about one by one? Why are you so cruel to me?"

"Father, Mother, Phillip, why didn’t you take Yvonne with you? Yvonne is in so much pain. Yvonne doesn’t want to stay in this world alone and endure the grief. Without you, what’s the point of me living in this world?"

"Why didn’t you take me with you? Why...?"

Tears rolled down her cheeks one after another, soaking her entire face.

When she raised her head again, her face was void of color, pale and trembling. The extreme sorrow in her expression was immensely infectious, making people’s hearts clench together.

One could truly feel her pain.

Upon witnessing this scene, the director and the screenwriter exchanged glances, their eyes filled with admiration.

Even Faye Lister, standing aside, nodded and thought to herself that Kelvin Norman certainly had good taste.

This girl indeed had an impressive and infectious performance.

It was hard to tell that she was a newcomer.

Her acting skills were even better than many so-called veterans.

As Kelvin Norman had said, this girl was definitely destined for success.

With looks, acting skills, and resources.

It would be hard for her not to succeed.

Both Faye Lister and Kelvin Norman were known for mentoring younger generations.

Of course, only those they appreciated.

If they encountered someone they thought had potential, they would give a helping hand when possible.

Because they, too, had once been newcomers and had met seniors who were willing to mentor them.

After finishing the last line, Yvonne wiped away the tears from her face and picked up a sword, trembling, from the ground beside her.
