It really was just a few appearances.

Director Stan, now in his forties, has directed numerous personal heroism series films, well-known internationally and box office hits each time. His films are full of special effects and heroism, combining humor and emotion, and are undeniably blockbuster hits.

Tong Yan spoke to Stan while kneeling; there was no choice after hanging up multiple times and even blocking his calls.

When Stan saw her, he was a bit disappointed. So this is the Eastern Doll that Jason strongly recommended? She looked so frail, how could she handle the role? He felt some resentment toward Jason, knowing full well that he didn’t like using Eastern actors, yet he still went out of the way to recommend her. Was it because she was pretty? Did he let his hormones get the best of him?

But since she had traveled so far, it wouldn’t be right to send her away without doing anything. That wouldn’t be gentlemanly at all.

Stan considered himself a gentlemanly director, so he explained the character’s role and requirements, "This role requires excellent martial skills..."

At this point, Stan paused and looked at Tong Yan, wondering if she would give up after the first requirement. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

However, the girl seemed to be even more interested...

Could he have been unclear in his expression?

Stan emphasized once more, "Although this role doesn’t have many appearances, it’s extremely important and must be performed by someone with significant martial skills..."

When he looked at Tong Yan, he was shocked to see her eyes glowing.

Was Jason right after all, and she truly was impressive?

But—

She didn’t look like it at all.

Stan gave up and said directly, "Let’s start right away, the character’s traits have been explained to you, just do any scene you’d like."

After speaking, he sat down on the sofa, without much hope.

Tong Yan pondered over Stan’s words for a moment and finally felt confident. She had seen this film in her previous life. The role she was to play, while not a major one, always appeared alongside the male and female leads, adding a finishing touch that was essential.

Since Stan had emphasized martial skills multiple times, Tong Yan decided to deliver a straightforward performance.

She closed her eyes, and when she reopened them, she was a different person.

She acted out a scene of fighting with an enemy, and as soon as she threw a punch, Stan was shocked, unable to speak.

Unexpectedly, her martial skills were indeed excellent.

When he saw her sweep kick, Stan couldn’t help but stand up.

This beautiful Eastern lady was truly astonishing to him.

In the end, Tong Yan finished by smashing the table with a single palm, catching a glimpse of Stan’s jaw-dropping face; she felt satisfaction.

Although Stan didn’t say it outright, it was obvious he held a bias against Eastern actors.

But this was also the reality; Huaxia actors face great difficulty in reaching international stages, often requiring efforts beyond imagination.

Her final move wasn’t related to the audition content at all.

But then, Stan had looked down on her the entire time.

She did it on purpose!

She wanted Stan to know that plenty of talented individuals come from Huaxia; even a young woman like her possessed such skills, let alone others!

Evidently, the effect was achieved.

Stan was so surprised that his mouth couldn’t close.

It wasn’t just surprise; he was practically scared witless!

She actually... actually broke the chair barehanded!

Even big and tall people from M Country might not be able to do so, yet this slender, fragile, petite beauty managed it. It was truly astonishing.

Stan couldn’t help but applaud, "Good, good, very good..."
