In this short scene, Lingjing tells the director of a small-budget movie that she has been cast as the female lead in the film. The director is furious, and threatens to tell the casting committee that the company has invested two million dollars in the project and that they should take the money back. Lingjing says that she is a terrible actress, and that she cannot even be the heroine of the film, because the casting company will invest twice as much money in the production as they did in the first place. Ling Ling says that he had to spend some time with her before the director agreed to invest the money, and he will use this as leverage to get back at the casting director when he becomes famous. The casting director tells Ling Ling that the room is dark and that the director needs to handle the situation himself, since he is auditioning for the role of the prisoner in the movie. He needs to show that he is a strong character, that he loves his family and that he cares for his friends. The host says that this is not the point, but Ling Ling points out that he has to care for the actor, not for Ling Ling. He has not acted for three years, and Ling Ling thinks that he will be able to handle this situation. He almost runs out of the room, but he thinks of Ling Ling waiting for him outside.
