He didn’t know.
When he turned with a sarcastic smile, Shaohua, who was behind him, leaned back in her chair and revealed a smirk just as ironic.
"Ms. Ye," Li Wen walked in from outside, "Qu Ran has arrived."
"Let him in," Ye Shaohua knocked on the table.
Qu Ran entered somewhat timidly; he knew about the infamous witch of the Entertainment Circle, Ye Shaohua, before even joining Feisheng.
He had heard of the unwritten rules of the Entertainment Circle as well.
Thinking about this, he looked at Ye Shaohua with complex emotions.
As a matter of fact...
Being "taken under the wing" by someone like her, he’d be the one at an advantage, right?
"Take this," Ye Shaohua tossed a script at him, "study it these few days. The male lead’s character really suits you, and, barring any accidents, this persona will attract fans easily. Practice well, and in half a month, I’ll take you to meet the Director."
Qu Ran lowered his head to look at the script—
"All Gods Blue Sky"?
What kind of crappy script is this?
He looked up in confusion, "Ms. Ye, didn’t you say you were taking me to audition tomorrow?"
"No audition," Ye Shaohua said as she curled her lips, "we’re starting with a movie instead. The TV drama path is too slow, taking two to three years to reach international standards, but movies are different."
Stopping there, Ye Shaohua continued, "Alright, go back and study it thoroughly; if you don’t understand something about the role, call me. You won’t have any engagements this half month."
To start his career with a movie lead role was nothing Qu Ran could ever disdain.
Even if it were a flop, he would still be thrilled.
Moreover, Qu Ran knew he had signed an S-grade contract. With that thought, he looked at Ye Shaohua, "Ms. Ye, rest assured, I would rather die than leave Feisheng!"
He had recently heard rumors that Feisheng was on the decline. Although he knew the road ahead might be tough, he had no intention of leaving.
With those words, he left.
Watching Qu Ran walk away, Ye Shaohua, leaning comfortably in her chair, was somewhat caught off guard by his attitude.
But she said nothing; she appreciated those who understood the times.
With that, she grabbed another script and went out to find the Director.
The adaptation of "All Gods Blue Sky," which caused a tremendous stir in two worlds, definitely had something special about it. Its story full of passion, positivity, and tear-jerking scenes was the biggest selling point of the movie.
Having experienced many worlds, she had gained a fresh understanding of fantasy.
Ye Shaohua had revised the novel, making it more in line with reality, with the described techniques and their application being factual.
These details would be missed by anyone but an expert, yet the novel would surely cause an even bigger sensation if serialized in this world.
Even without serialization, Qu Ran, who had taken the script home to study seriously, was still profoundly shocked.
He didn’t sleep at all that night, his eyes red from staying up late.
He was extremely excited that Ye Shaohua had given him this script.
Speaking amiably, but a little distant since they were in public, he didn’t appear overly familiar with Ye Shaohua.
His expression didn’t mean much to Ye Shaohua, with her experience of countless worlds, she could tell at a glance that Tianyu still lacked maturity in his acting to take the lead role—he was still a long way off.
Ye Shaohua smiled at him and then led Qu Ran straight into the audition.
On the way, they encountered Qingjiu also auditioning for the role of the third male lead.
"Qu Ran, you’re here to audition as well?" Seeing Qu Ran with Ye Shaohua, Qingjiu was surprised.
Especially since Ye Shaohua so brazenly took Qingjiu straight in. Wasn’t that too arrogant?
"How did she get him in there?" Qingjiu frowned, "The Director has always disliked newcomers with hidden agendas, and besides... how could Feisheng obtain the resources for ’All Gods Blue Sky’?"
To his knowledge, even Tianyu’s company, which had tried to secure a stable role for him in the Drama Crew, was sternly rejected by the Director.
"She’s probably just putting on airs," Qingjiu’s Agent said with a relaxed attitude, "after all, Feisheng is nothing but a shell now. Just watch, they’ll be kicked out by the Director soon enough—he’s notorious for his temper."
However, Qu Ran, following behind Ye Shaohua, was very uneasy.
She had just led him inside like that?
He saw a Best Actor waiting obediently outside along the way.
Wasn’t she being... a bit too bold?
Moreover, the type of people the Director detested most were exactly like her.
Worried, Qu Ran followed Ye Shaohua inside, only to find that the Director and producer’s attitudes toward Ye Shaohua were quite different from what he had expected.
And Ye Shaohua, contrary to the rumors from the outside world, was also very different.
