Li Ran arrived at the dressing room and just opened the door to go in. Unexpectedly, there was someone inside who was about to come out. The two almost bumped into each other.
"Feel sorry."
Li Ran apologized subconsciously, looked up and saw that he was still an acquaintance, and blurted out slightly surprised: "Owen."
"It's you! Li Ran." Owen's eyes flashed, and he greeted him with a smile as usual.
Owen is an artist from a company that Li Ran worked with before. Seeing acquaintances here, Li Ran relaxed a lot and naturally talked more.
"Why are you here?"
Owen looked at him curiously, but he already had a guess in his mind.
The artists who came here today are all here to compete for the role of Director Airey, and I'm afraid Li Ran came here just for this reason.
Thinking of this, a haze flashed across his eyes.
Li Ran didn't see it. Seeing him asking this, he didn't think much and said directly: "I'm here for the audition. Are you here for the audition too?"
There is a world of difference between auditions and auditions. Auditions are about selecting one from among many people, but auditions are directly conducted by the director. If you are lucky, you can be selected directly.
The smile on Owen's face couldn't be maintained, so he pretended to smile bitterly.
"I'm here to participate in the audition. As you know, I'm just a small artist. I don't get any good resources. When I was on the crew, I was ostracized, so I just wanted to give it a try."
Li Ran had experienced the situation Owen mentioned before, so he would naturally understand how difficult it was. He knew that Owen had some strength. He thought about it, took out a business card from his pocket, and handed it to Owen.
"This is an advertising company I have worked with before. You can give it a try."
Li Ran thought that if he was lucky, he could also get an advertisement, which would increase his popularity.
It's just that his kindness seemed to Owen like charity, which made him feel that he was just hypocritical.
However, Owen was disdainful in his heart, but grateful on his face.
"Thank you Li Ran."
Li Ran patted him on the shoulder and encouraged: "Believe in yourself, you can definitely do it."
After saying a few more words, Li Ran said goodbye to Irving when his assistant called him, and went to prepare makeup and wait for the audition.
Outside the restroom.
Guan Xiao came out of the bathroom, washed her hands in the sink, and was about to leave when she heard a voice coming from the bathroom next door, and faintly heard Li Ran's name.
She frowned slightly, stopped where she was, and listened carefully.
In the bathroom next door, there were the voices of two men. The two men did not lower their voices deliberately. Guan Xiao listened carefully and clearly heard what they were talking about.
'Li Ran only has the resources he has now because he was attracted by his face.'
"It's just good luck to get resources by relying on your face."
'In the past, when I pretended to be so serious, wasn't it just to use all possible means behind my back?'
'There are few clean people in the circle. They may live well and serve their sponsors well, and they will naturally have resources.'
The voice gradually became louder, and a person came out first. When he saw Guan Xiao, he stopped for a moment in embarrassment.
Then, another person walked out, it was none other than Owen, and when he saw someone outside, his first reaction was that he felt guilty.
Especially when he saw the other person's face and recognized Guan Xiao as Li Ran's boss, he looked even more frightened.
After all, he was discussing Li Ran's affairs with others just now, and he didn't know if the other party listened to it.
Owen knew Guan Xiao, but she didn't know Owen anymore, but she naturally didn't like people who talked and slandered others behind their backs.
What's more, Li Ran is an actor under her company, so naturally she won't just watch and ignore being slandered like this.
"You can be prosecuted for spreading rumors and slandering others behind their backs. If you don't want to be legally responsible, you should watch your mouth in the future and don't spread rumors about others casually."
Guan Xiao looked at the two of them expressionlessly, warned them, and turned around to leave regardless of their reactions.
Owen's face was a little ugly, but it was not because of Guan Xiao's words, but because he was afraid that she would tell Li Ran the matter. At the same time, because of her defense of Li Ran, he was also very jealous.
The man who was discussing with Owen hurried away immediately after seeing Guan Xiao leave.
Owen returned to the dressing room with a sullen face, and happened to see a staff member holding a set of clothing with Li Ran's name written on it.
Owen's eyes darkened, and the next moment he smiled, walked up to the staff member, and patted him on the shoulder.
"Hello, are these Li Ran's clothes? I'm his assistant and I'm here to pick up the clothes."
When the staff heard what he said, they didn't think much and gave him the clothes directly.
"That's just right, I was just about to send the clothes to Teacher Li!"
With a smile on his face, Owen took over the costume and said, "Just leave it to me. You can go and do the work."
When the staff left, the smile on Owen's face disappeared instantly.
He glanced around and saw that no one was paying attention to him. He took an eyebrow trimmer from the dressing table nearby, turned around and walked out with a normal expression.
After coming out of the dressing room, Owen walked to the end of the corridor, looked at the clothes in his hands, and curled up into a sneer.
He glanced around and saw that no one was around, so he used the eyebrow trimmer he brought to cut his clothes, then threw the eyebrow trimmer in the trash can.
After doing this, he turned around and left in a good mood as if nothing happened.
In the dressing room.
Guan Xiao was discussing with Li Ran the plot of the audition, but seeing that the time was already far behind, Li Ran's clothes had not yet been delivered. She urged Li Ran's assistant on the side: "Go and urge the staff to deliver the clothes as soon as possible."
come over."
"Okay Mr. Guan."
The assistant responded and left quickly.
But after a while, the assistant came back with a bad expression.
Seeing this, Guan Xiao frowned. She looked at her assistant and asked, "What's wrong?"
The assistant said with a strange expression: "Mr. Guan, the staff said that Brother Li's clothes have been taken away long ago."
"Who went to get it?"
"Said he is Brother Li's assistant."
Guan Xiao: "."
The assistant was obviously with them all the time, when did he go to get clothes?
It was precisely because the staff said this that the assistant looked strange. Why didn't he know when he had gone to pick up the clothes?
But now is not the time to worry about this. The most important thing is to find clothes first, otherwise there will be an audition soon, and you can't live without clothes.
Guan Xiao called the staff at the scene, explained the matter, and called the staff member who kept Li Ran's clothes, and called up the surveillance camera.
After all, this was also a dereliction of duty on the part of the staff. Naturally, they would not refuse and cooperated very cooperatively by calling up the monitoring system.
When she saw a familiar figure appear on the surveillance screen, Guan Xiao narrowed her eyes slightly.
