Legend Of The Dragon Pearl…
Li Beinian recited those words again and coughed lightly.
“Is the job you are talking about a role on ‘Legend Of The Dragon Pearl?’”
“Yes!” Bo Chengcheng sounded like she was very proud of herself. “This huge production requires many actors. However, big companies usually have control over the roles. I have managed to get you a supporting role that has many scenes. If you can do it, it will be an opportunity.”
Li Beinian fell quiet for a while before asking, “What role is it?”
“The supporting role is a maid that is close to the heroine. She will be present for about half of the entire show.”
“Oh… In this case, I think I have to tell you…”
“How is your condition?” Bo Chengcheng suddenly remembered that she was injured.
“I’m ok. Much better than before.”
“That’s great. The audition will take place a few days later. Shooting will start next month. The main roles are already confirmed, and these small roles are usually chosen during the filming. If you can get this role, it’s definitely better than being in a small web drama like ‘Nine Spies.’”
“Sister Bo, actually I…”
“Yes?”
Li Beinian hesitated for a moment before finally saying, “Forget it. Let’s talk about it tomorrow when we meet.”
“Ok.” Bo Chengcheng agreed. “In that case, take care of yourself. How about you tell me your address? I can pick you from your house tomorrow.”
“It’s ok. I live with my family, and my family members do not know that I’m acting, so it’s quite inconvenient. “I will go to Sheng An at 10 am tomorrow.”
“Ok. I will wait for you, then.”
…
After they said good night to each other, Li Beinian hung up the phone, only to find that Director Jin and Yang Liangyu had tried calling her.
She called them back and received the same few words of concern.
After settling everything, Li Beinian fell asleep and only woke up at dawn.
Li Beinian washed up, put on some light makeup and went to Sheng An Entertainment.
She got on the elevator, and it was exactly 10 am when she met Bo Chengcheng.
Bo Chengcheng had waited for her for a long time. When she saw her, she sized her up and said, “It seems that you’re in a good state today. Is your hand injured?”
Li Beinian’s hand was still wrapped in gauze. She nodded in acknowledgment.
“Oh yes, Sister Bo.” Li Beinian immediately went straight to the point. “Regarding ‘Legend Of The Dragon Pearl’ which you mentioned last night, I actually managed to get a role in it already.”
Bo Chengcheng was stunned and instinctively asked, “What role?”
“The lead actress’ father’s concubine and stepmother, Concubine Yun.”
Bo Chengcheng was shocked. “Concubine Yun? I heard that the role of Concubine Yun was already fixed. How did you manage to get it?”
“It was secured for me.” Li Beinian coughed lightly. She wanted to explain, but she did not know how to start. After thinking about it, she decided to tell the truth. “Actually, my surname is Li and I’m the daughter of the President of Dawn Entertainment. The lead actress is Li Xueqing, my step-sister, and they arranged this role for me.”
As she spoke, Bo Chengcheng’s face twitched spasmodically.
Bo Chengcheng leaned closer and whispered, “I should also tell you a secret.”
“What?”
“Actually, my father is Bill Gates. I’m his long lost daughter that lives in China!”
Li Beinian was speechless.
Seeing her expression, Bo Chengcheng burst into laughter. “Dawn Entertainment is a big company. If you are part of the family, why would you bother signing with Sheng An Entertainment?”
Li Beinian protested. “I’m saying the truth!”
“I’m also serious,” Bo Chengcheng said sternly. “However, let’s get back to business. Did you really manage to get this role?”
“Yes.”
Bo Chengcheng was still in disbelief and shrugged her shoulders. “Since you said he is your father, regardless of whether he is your biological father or godfather, you should bring the contract to Sheng An.”
