Ji Chenxing nodded, and then called out in his heart, "System."
Although she can perform on her own, if the system can provide a little help, she can make the emotions more coherent.
If the audition is a test paper with a full score of 100, then only if Ji Chenxing scores 120 can these staff members who look down on her shut up.
Most of the time, Ji Chenxing doesn't like to talk nonsense with others. She prefers to explain everything with her strength.
After hearing Ji Chenxing's voice, the system quickly responded.
[Hello host, do you need my help? ]
"Yes." Ji Chenxing talked to the live broadcast system in his mind, "Can you help me create a phantom?"
Ji Chenxing has already figured it out. Since the live broadcast system can form one screen after another in ancient times, it should be possible to form it in modern times.
She doesn't even need a screen, just a shadow acting opposite her is enough.
[Shadow?]
"Correct."
Recalling the image of the "heroine's father" in the script, Ji Chenxing did not hesitate to picture Ji Zunxing in his mind.
"When my performance is almost over, please help me project this image."
The system can also see what is in Ji Chenxing’s mind. After a while, Ji Chenxing felt that the system had scanned the contents in his mind.
"How is it? Can you do it?" Ji Chenxing asked.
[It can definitely be done. Host, you don't have to worry about this. 】
Ji Chenxing said "hmm", and then heard the system ask:
[It's not difficult to make a projection like this. Host, do you have any other requirements? As a system that transcends time and space, I can satisfy you with whatever you want! ]
What the system said was definitely exaggerated, but Ji Chenxing was unwilling to expose it, so he put forward a request that was easier to meet but very necessary.
"I hope that no one else can see this projection, only I can see it."
There are so many people watching at the audition. If a person appears out of nowhere, even if it's just a projection, it will scare them, right?
In a worse case scenario, if the capabilities of the live broadcast system were exposed, perhaps even Ji Chenxing himself would be captured as some kind of monster and studied.
[That's easy to say. It's just my basic function. Do you want to add some other functions? ]
[For example... Hey, host, aren't you going to film a scene? How about I make this projection move and act with you? ]
[Hmm...if it's just a projection, it doesn't seem to be enough. How about this, let him be affected by your actions as well. If you slap him, he will cover his face.]
The system became more and more excited as it spoke.
[But projection is projection after all, I still need a real person to be the model in order to simulate his emotions, movements and reactions.]
The system was silent for a moment.
[I think this person looks familiar. I think I have seen him before... Oh, that's right, isn't this Ji Zunxing? He always dislikes you, the host.]
[How about this, I think we should not bother with projections, and just move Ji Zunxing over here. If it’s just a projection, the host can kill him at will.]
Ji Chenxing was stunned for a moment. "At the end of this rivalry, the heroine I play has to kill her father. Will I accidentally kill him?"
[You don't need to think too much about this host. Although it is Ji Zunxing himself who will play against you, in essence, he will appear in the form of a projection. No matter what you do, it will not have any impact on his life.]
Ji Chenxing breathed a sigh of relief silently.
During this period, Ji Chenxing has become accustomed to modern life and does not want to experience the fighting and killing scenes of ancient times again.
If Ji Zunxing was killed for the audition and the projection showed a pool of blood, it would affect Ji Chenxing's mood.
"That's it then, start the projection, the show is about to begin."
Ji Chenxing thought for a moment and added, "By the way, control the projection's emotions and actions and follow the script. Otherwise, it will not only fail to help me, but will also have a counterproductive effect."
【Hehe, I understand! 】
After the system replied, a projection immediately appeared in front of Ji Chenxing.
[Alright, host, this is the projection of Ji Zunxing himself. During the projection, his behavior is completely controlled by you, so don't worry about him running around.]
[Another point is that, although he is just a projection, if you use the things in the projection to attack him, he will still feel pain, but he will not be injured or die.]
[And no matter whether it is modern people or ancient people in the live broadcast room, no one except the host can see this phantom, please use it with confidence, and be sure to get the role of the girl! ]
After the system finished speaking, it disappeared.
Although Ji Chenxing and the system talked about a lot of things, it didn't take much time because all of this was done in Ji Chenxing's mind.
From the outside, only a short second had passed.
With this projection, Ji Chenxing's performance had an aid.
"Then let's get started."
Just then Liang Sheng spoke.
Ji Chenxing took a deep breath.
She knew that at this moment, everyone's eyes were on her.
Not only the director and other relevant personnel in the crew, but also the ancient people in the live broadcast room.
Shen Ruyan, Ji Xueyao...
And there is the projection in front of him—Ji Zunxing.
According to the system, the projection of Ji Zunxing in front of him is the real Ji Zunxing who came from ancient times.
Ji Chenxing took a look at the projection in front of him. He thought that his father, who had a simple mind but strong limbs, could finally play a role at this time.
Ji Chenxing began to get into the state.
She closed her eyes, as if she had returned to that day.
In the dark dungeon, the shadow of the fire danced around Ji Zunxing's face.
Every word and every sentence that Ji Zunxing said that day were firmly imprinted in Ji Chenxing's mind.
"If you are not a traitor, why are you reading these books?"
-
Opposite Ji Chenxing, Ji Zunxing suddenly opened his eyes wide.
He didn't know why he suddenly came to this place, and he didn't know why he suddenly faced Ji Chenxing.
Ji Zunxing wanted to leave this place, but he was surprised to find that he couldn't move at all.
Not only can the limbs and body not move, but even the facial expressions are rarely under his control.
And in front of him, Ji Chenxing suddenly closed his eyes for some reason, as if he was brewing some emotion.
Ji Zunxing wanted to ask something, but found that he couldn't make a sound no matter what.
"I was just...didn't I just drink tea in the yard? How did I suddenly come here?
"Ji Chenxing, it must be Ji Chenxing doing something again. Why did she bring me here?"
Ji Zunxing's mind was in a mess. He didn't know that no one around him could see him. He wanted to ask Ji Chenxing for help but couldn't make a sound. He became more and more frightened.
Before the fear in his heart dissipated, he felt his mouth open uncontrollably.
His tongue moved up and down, his lips opened and closed, and sounds came out uncontrollably.
"If you are not a traitor, why are you reading these books?"
His voice sounded very reasonable, which was completely inconsistent with the fear in his heart.
If I have to say it, the voice was exactly the same as what Ji Chenxing said in the dungeon on the day he was killed.
And this sentence was like triggering a switch in Ji Chenxing.
When he opened his eyes, Ji Chenxing's eyes were already red.
Only this time, the emotion in her eyes no longer contained a trace of grievance, but a combination of anger and reason, forming a resistance that was about to overturn the negotiating table.
This time was obviously different from the last time. Last time in the dungeon, Ji Chenxing took care of Ji Zunxing's emotions no matter what.
And this time, it seemed that as long as Ji Zunxing said something that displeased her, she would immediately break free from the ropes that bound her hands, then pull out the sword from Ji Zunxing's waist and chop off Ji Zunxing's head.
"Father, do you know how you won those battles?"
Ji Chenxing's words were so powerful.
Ji Zunxing's already shocked and frightened little heart seemed to have suffered millions of critical hits at this moment.
There was no other reason. Ji Chenxing's words were exactly the same as what she said before she died that night. In addition, Ji Chenxing's red eyes were right in front of him, which made Ji Zunxing wonder if he had returned to that night again.
Or maybe he is already dead, and coming to this place is just a revolving door.
To be honest, that night, he didn't know how powerful Ji Chenxing was and he underestimated Ji Chenxing.
If it happened again, he would definitely not kill Ji Chenxing so easily.
In other words, judging from the current situation, let alone killing Ji Chenxing, it is hard to say whether Ji Chenxing can save his own life.
Ji Chenxing's performance continues.
Before Ji Zunxing could figure out what was happening, he felt his mouth move again, and then he said something.
Ji Zunxing certainly didn't want to say these words, but he had no choice because his body was completely out of his control.
He tried desperately to tell Ji Chenxing that these words were not what he meant, but he simply couldn't bring himself to explain.
Here, Ji Chenxing was very satisfied with the projection given by the system.
In addition, this projection was the image of Ji Zunxing, and Ji Chenxing suddenly thought of Ji Zunxing's various behaviors towards him in the past twenty years of his life.
After a few more sentences, Ji Zunxing was so confused that he couldn't figure out what was going on from beginning to end.
He only knew that after he finished his lines, Ji Chenxing's eyes suddenly became fierce.
"How dare you say such words? You are unworthy of being a father! You are so disloyal, you are unworthy of being a subject. Today, I will kill you, the traitor, for the sake of the court!"
After frowning slightly, Ji Chenxing suddenly reached forward.
Ji Zunxing lowered his head and saw that Ji Chenxing had drawn a sword from his waist.
At this moment, Ji Chenxing's temperament was very different from before.
She changed her reserved and generous temperament and became sharp and fierce.
Like a sword that has not been unsheathed for years, everyone has forgotten its cold edge.
When it was pulled out at this moment, cold light and chilliness shone on everyone.
Ji Zunxing's heart was filled with alarm.
He had a feeling that Ji Chenxing was now filled with fierce murderous intent. Feeling it more carefully, it seemed that Ji Chenxing's murderous intent was all caused by him.
It was the first time he saw Ji Chenxing with such a violent temper.
However, worrying was useless. He could not control his body at all. He could only let Ji Chenxing pick up the sword and stab it into his chest.
At that moment, Ji Zunxing thought of many things in his mind.
Did he really do something wrong, so God made him stand in front of Ji Chenxing uncontrollably and be stabbed by Ji Chenxing?
Ji Zunxing was even somewhat thankful that his body was no longer under his control and he couldn't move at all.
He felt that if he moved even the slightest, Ji Chenxing would vent all her anger on him.
At this moment, Ji Zunxing felt the despair before death for the first time.
And he was killed by his own daughter.
Did Ji Chenxing feel the same way before he died?
However, it was no use for Ji Zunxing to think about anything now.
Ji Chenxing had already picked up the sword, and then stabbed Ji Zunxing on the opposite side through with one sword.
At this moment, her eyes were filled with complex emotions: tension, relaxation, loss, disappointment, helplessness...
It's not just about her father, but more about the society's disapproval of women and the powerlessness of being born a woman.
However, this emotion of hers did not last long and was soon replaced by determination.
Since her father had accused her of treason, she should kill her father; since the imperial court did not allow women to hold official positions, she should overthrow the imperial court.
Although there are no lines in this latter part, Ji Chenxing's eyes have replaced these lines.
The silence speaks.
Ji Chenxing's scene was over, and Ji Zunxing's projection was also put back into ancient times.
In the General's Mansion, Ji Zunxing shuddered and woke up.
Everything that just happened seemed like a dream.
But for some reason, when Ji Zunxing met Ji Chenxing's gaze on the screen, he suddenly felt an inexplicable fear in his heart.
The dream just now was so real. When the sword in Ji Chenxing's hand stabbed at him, Ji Zunxing could really feel that she had the intention to kill him.
This resulted in Ji Zunxing becoming more and more frightened the more he thought about it, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Ji Chenxing really wanted to kill him.
In the end, I couldn't even tell whether what had just happened really happened.
After learning from the pain, how painful it was! He stayed where he was, sweating profusely, and dared not move.
Not only the ancient Ji Zunxing, but also several crew members present at the audition, including Liang Sheng, were stunned.
Ji Chenxing's performance in this scene is very emotional, his mood is strong and his movements are also very appropriate.
Although it was a performance without props, there was no sense of incongruity at all.
It was as if there was really a person in front of her, and a real sword.
Liang Sheng felt that he had underestimated Ji Chenxing.
Ji Chenxing has always been his favorite candidate for the heroine, but he is also worried that Ji Chenxing's introverted personality will not be able to support the heroine's character.
Until this moment, he finally felt relieved.
He was not wrong. Ji Chenxing was the most suitable candidate for the hostess.
This is not Ji Chenxing playing the heroine, when Ji Chenxing is performing, she is the heroine herself!
She brought the heroine out of the original novel!
Ji Chenxing's performance was emotionally present and her movements were coordinated, and she was able to act well even without any props.
It was a long time before Liang Sheng came back to his senses from the performance.
He stood up and clapped his hands while praising, "Good!"
With Liang Sheng taking the lead in praising, other crew members also came back to their senses from Ji Chenxing's performance and started applauding.
Even those crew members who had just mocked Ji Chenxing started to applaud while blushing.
They had to admit that they were too stereotyped.
Ji Chenxing is indeed capable.
"You acted well." Liang Sheng gave a straightforward evaluation, "You are the most suitable female lead I have ever seen."
"Thank you."
Ji Chenxing was so immersed in the role that his emotions had not yet completely dissipated. His expression was a little stiff, and he simply said thank you.
However, Liang Sheng didn't care about these things. "Then you can go back and wait for the result. If the crew cooperates with you later, they will notify you."
Ji Chenxing nodded, but before he could say "OK", he heard Zhang Wuwu on the other side suddenly speak.
"Wait, Director Liang, is this scene so easy to handle?"
There was some doubt in Zhang Wuwu's tone.
Liang Sheng didn't understand what Zhang Wuwu meant, "What does 'it was so easy to pass' mean?"
"Oh, actually I don't have any other meaning, I just think the setting of this plot is a little unreasonable."
Liang Sheng has always been a person who likes to listen to opinions. Zhang Wuwu's identity is also relatively important. When he said that it was unreasonable, Liang Sheng immediately took it seriously.
"What's wrong? Tell me in detail and I'll ask them to change the script."
Zhang Wuwu cleared his throat. "If I remember correctly, the heroine's father should be a general, right?"
Liang Sheng nodded, "Yes, the heroine is from a military family, and her father is a general."
Zhang Wuwu said, "That's it. The heroine's father is a general. How can a general of the imperial court be appointed casually? At least he must have some powerful martial arts skills, right?"
So far, Liang Sheng hadn't heard anything wrong, so he nodded and said, "Yes."
"If that's the case, then how could the heroine's father be killed so easily by the heroine? Is the heroine really that powerful?"
After Zhang Wuwu finished speaking, he didn't listen to anyone else's opinions and directly locked his eyes on Ji Chenxing.
"Well, I will play the heroine's father. Let's reenact the scene of assassinating the father just now!" (End of this chapter)
