No one spoke for a moment.
Actually, the Director’s script was a closely guarded secret, known only to the core members of the production team.
However, the top producers who had seen it, even international film conglomerates that joined the movie, although none stated it directly, everyone could glean one message—
This would be the most explosive film of the year, not to mention that it was the Director’s final work.
Top actors and actresses from the Entertainment Circle vied to join in, and many were speculating which titan of the film industry had penned the screenplay.
But despite their long speculations, no one had imagined... that it was none other than Ye Shaohua!
A group of reporters looked at one another, sheepishly withdrawing the microphones they had been about to shove in Shaohua’s face.
There was no helping it, Ye Shaohua’s move was too vicious.
Who could have known that a script that shook half of the Entertainment Circle’s foundation would have been written by Ye Shaohua?
The lady didn’t do anything wrong by bringing out a script to promote her own newcomer; and didn’t you see that even the Best Actor playing the second male lead didn’t utter a word?
"Qingjiu, this... was the script originally provided by President Ye?" Qingjiu’s agent was stunned for a while before finally coming to his senses, stuttering, "She used a team, and had Best Actors and Actresses playing supporting roles to promote Qu Ran?!"
If that were the case and Qu Ran still didn’t become popular, it would defy all reason.
The movie hadn’t even started filming and it had already reached this level of hype.
By the time the movie was released, it was hard to imagine how popular Qu Ran would become.
Thinking this, Qingjiu’s agent grew somewhat restless.
With Qingjiu’s current popularity, he had come today aiming for the third male lead, but witnessing Ye Shaohua bringing an entirely new actor for discussions, he couldn’t help but feel a twinge of ridicule. Yet, he had never expected the situation to develop into what it had!
The Director had not made many movies, but each one was an award-winning masterpiece, now joined by so many noteworthy figures.
As long as Qu Ran wasn’t too stiff, his rise to fame was inevitable.
To say that Qingjiu didn’t feel regrets would be a lie, especially since Qu Ran’s image was so similar to his own. If he had not left the company, this film would have been tailor-made for him.
"Why didn’t President Ye mention she was preparing this film when you decided to leave?" The agent, noticing a group of reporters circling Qu Ran, couldn’t help but feel a tinge of jealousy, "If she had, we wouldn’t have terminated the contract with the company."
He had originally planned to capitalize on Qingjiu’s high popularity and use it as leverage to break the contract with a bigger entertainment company for better resources.
Being able to audition for the Director’s third male lead felt like a good opportunity already.
But to think... Ye Shaohua had fucking handed the male lead to Qu Ran directly!
Without comparison, there would be no hurt.
Right now, Qingjiu was experiencing a feeling that was hard to describe; he was always envied for the resources he had since his debut, but now for the first time, he understood what jealousy felt like.
He dearly hoped that the Best Actor and Best Actress would completely overshadow Qu Ran’s performance.
Shaohua didn’t rush to leave; she had received a phone call.
She was leaning slightly on the hood of a car at the moment, engrossed in her phone call.
When Qu Ran, the Manager from the Entertainment Company, and Li Wen approached, they saw her leaning on the hood, one hand supporting her. For some reason, even though she was clearly not an actress or a model from the circle,
every movement of hers, casual as they might seem, was incredibly precise from every angle, as if meticulously edited.
No one knew whom she was speaking with, but a rare smile graced her face.
It was different from her usual nonchalant smile—it was the kind that was... incredibly seductive.
"President Ye." Li Wen approached Shaohua and spoke softly.
Qu Ran and the Manager quietly followed her, remaining silent.
"Alright, we’ll talk more once I get there," Shaohua hung up the phone and tucked it away, her expression returning to its usual nonchalance, "Let’s go back to the company first."
Li Wen and the Manager nodded. Aside from Qu Ran, who already knew about Shaohua providing the script, both of them looked at her thoughtfully.
They’d originally thought of Shaohua merely as a temporary substitute for the Mafia Young Lady going into the company.
But the more they associated with her, the more they sensed just how unfathomable Ye Shaohua was.
Especially since Li Wen knew about Shaohua’s relationship with Ying Tianyu, she couldn’t help but wonder, what exactly was Tianyu feeling right now?
