Chapter 243 Each takes one step back

Suzuki Ami's speculation is actually in line with common sense.

Generally speaking, unless the director attaches great importance to a film and has a lot of free time, he will personally audition even a role that only has a dozen minutes of screen time.

Most directors who have some fame in the industry will hand over the casting task of similar supporting roles to the assistant director or the director who specializes in casting, let alone the popular and famous director Kitagawa Yoshiko.

This means that the selection of these roles will be largely influenced by personal connections, and will not simply depend on the actor's qualifications and performance.

Su Lingxi guessed that Suzuki Ami took this opportunity to recommend herself to Kitagawa Yoshiko in order to avoid being squeezed out by people with connections.

"You said before that the heroine will be auditioned nationwide. I... this is the only way I can think of to meet you." Suzuki Ami tried to stay calm. "I'm sorry, I'm abrupt, but I beg you to give me five minutes for the audition."

"I will use these five minutes to prove that I can handle this role."

Hearing this, Kitagawa Yoshiko's originally cold expression changed slightly, and her posture changed from leaning back to leaning forward slightly.

This is a body language that symbolizes curiosity and desire to explore.

At least at this moment she was not angry because of Suzuki Ami's rude behavior, but instead felt a little novel.

She had always been partial to the ivy, which climbed vigorously.

This is true for flowers and people as well.

However, before Kitagawa Ryoko could give her opinion, the man in black sitting on her left slowly spoke up: "Ms. Suzuki, I'm sorry I don't understand why you said this. Your resume is weak and you are obviously not qualified for the role of Ayane. In this case, rashly signing up for the audition will only waste all of our time, including yours."

"The casting date for Erika Uezono has not yet been chosen. If you want to fight for this role, you should come back another day instead of trying to disrupt the rules here."

"Maybe you have your own unspeakable secrets, but I think that has nothing to do with us. No one needs to be held responsible for it."

The man in black had neatly groomed black hair, and although it was mixed with a few strands of silver, it did not make him look old.

He has a deep voice, and he's dressed in a suit, tie, and black leather shoes. His elite aura makes it hard to doubt his words.

Just like Suzuki Ami at this moment.

Although she did not agree with what he said, her face turned red because of the intimidation from him, and she was unable to refute for a long time.

"Ishihara-senpai, she only needs five minutes. We don't have any other plans next, right?" Kitagawa Yoshiko sat up straight, with no expression on her face. "At least I don't think this is a waste of time. On the contrary, I'm curious about what kind of performance she will present. What do you think?"

Ishihara Takashi frowned. "From the moment she walked in until now, we have wasted two minutes."

His tone was filled with disapproval.

Kitagawa Ryoko curled her lips and said, "Then just give her three minutes."

Ishihara Takashi didn't say anything this time, but from his expression, it was clear that he obviously didn't understand why Kitagawa Yoshiko made such a decision.

The chief director and the producer had a conflict of opinion, and no one else dared to interrupt and say anything. The atmosphere in the audition room suddenly became heavy.

The tense atmosphere didn't ease up until Suzuki Ami finished her audition.

"Although your acting skills still need to be polished, you have a good temperament." Kitagawa Ryoko put down the pen in her hand, "I like your unique campus atmosphere, which is very youthful and free. For a role, it is very important to have a matching temperament."

"So -" she drawled meaningfully, "Congratulations, you got the role."

Suzuki Ami's eyes widened in surprise, "Really? Can I, can I really play the role of Uezono?"

The girl's eyes were sparkling, and before her bright smile could fully develop, someone poured a basin of cold water on her.

"Beichuan, do you want to break the rules because of your selfishness?"

Ishihara Takashi rubbed his brows and said with a look of surprise, "Today should be the audition day for the heroine. If you set a precedent for this girl, once the news gets out, there will only be more unexpected incidents at the audition sites later, and the situation will become even more uncontrollable."

The existence of the producer is often a tool to restrain the director - after all, only a person of this level can counter the director's decision and prevent the audition room from becoming a one-man show by the director.

So even though Kitagawa Ryoko was in a bad mood at the moment, she had to persuade him kindly, "Senior, her performance is very suitable for the role of Erika. I believe you can see that. We should not miss a good actor just to follow the rules. This is putting the cart before the horse."

Ishihara Takashi has been responsible for the planning and production of films over the years and has worked with Fujita Ryo more than once. As Fujita's performance assistant, Kitagawa Yoshiko has dealt with him many times on the crew before.

She was well aware of this senior's conservative and rigid character, and was also aware of the importance he attached to rules and etiquette, but she really couldn't understand it.

This may be the legendary "generation gap".

But Ishihara Takashi is also the director of the TV drama editing and production department of Fuji TV. Given his status, it is not easy to offend him.

Kitagawa Yoshiko sighed, things were really a bit tricky.

The atmosphere in the house became much quieter than at the beginning, so quiet that you could almost hear a pin drop.

Seeing that the situation was about to reach a stalemate, Su Lingxi cleared his throat and said carefully: "Perhaps, this senior is right. We can indeed wait until the day of the official selection to finalize the candidates for the roles."

"Ms. Suzuki's performance was wonderful, but the timing seems to be inappropriate now, and there are still many people who have not had the chance to show their performances."

"Director Kitagawa, what do you think?"

Obviously, after Su Lingxi said this, Ishihara Takashi's expression improved a lot.

Kitagawa Ryoko noticed this and pursed her lips slightly, "Nicole makes sense, Suzuki, if you don't mind, I'll give you an answer in three days, okay?"

Ishihara Takashi's position was extremely important, and even though she was reluctant, she had to take a step back for him.

Although Suzuki Ami felt a little uneasy, she still smiled and nodded.

God knows, she was almost scared to death by the atmosphere in the audition room just now - if the producer and director of this film had a conflict because of such a small role like her, she would probably become a thorn in the eyes of other crew members.

Fortunately, senior Nicole came out in time to help both parties out.

Thinking of this, Suzuki Ami looked at Su Lingxi with gratitude.
