They were just looking for a substitute.
Star Entertainment did not have to get someone to call her personally.
If they wanted to contact her, they should’ve gotten the person who recommended her in the first place to do so.
The most important thing was, she’d never taken a substitute role before.
She’d already told the company she worked at that she wouldn’t take up these offers.
Hence, it wouldn’t make sense for anyone to recommend her for such a role.
She didn’t have time to think so carefully while she was on the line.
But in hindsight, it was weird in so many ways.
“Star Entertainment is a huge company. They’ve got so many top tier artistes under them. Have you gone for an interview with them before?”
“No.” Qiao Mianmian shook her head with a look of skepticism in her eyes. “They said that they’ve got an upcoming show and they’re about to start filming. They asked if I can be a substitute for their female lead.”
“Substitute?” Jiang Luoli furrowed her brows. “I thought you weren’t into these roles?”
“Exactly.” Qiao Mianmian explained, “That’s why I find it strange. I’ve never taken up a job like that. I don’t see why anyone would come to me for this.”
Jiang Luoli thought for a while before saying, “I’ll check out Star Entertainment and see if they really have an upcoming show, and who their female lead is. Anyway, it isn’t a big deal, don’t think too much about it.”
“Mm.” Qiao Mianmian nodded.
“Baby, can I ask you something?”
“Mm, go on.”
Jiang Luoli looked at her and hesitated for a while before whispering, “What kind of person is Prince Charming, exactly?”
Qiao Mianmian was stunned.
She and Mo Yesi did not have any agreement whatsoever.
And he’d never asked of her to keep his identity a secret.
Then again, he’d never openly made known who he was.
He never entertained any interviews too. Many people knew that Mo Corporation had a very young President, but they had no idea what his name was nor how he looked like.
It seemed like he kept a very low profile.
And that he preferred for fewer people to know his true identity.
Although Jiang Luoli was her best friend, she hesitated to tell her the truth about Mo Yesi.
Before she decided whether to tell her, Jiang Luoli said, “It’s alright if it’s inconvenient. I don’t absolutely have to know it. Baby, I was just asking about his background to know whether he could ensure your future career in the entertainment industry. If he’s powerful enough, then perhaps you could try to audition for some bigger roles. You don’t always have to go back to the calefare roles.
“Back then, Su Ze wasn’t in support of you being in the entertainment industry. Even if he had resources to help you, he wouldn’t. That’s why you couldn’t make it big in the field. But if Prince Charming isn’t against it, and is willing to support you, then wouldn’t it be easier for you to gain popularity and find success in this circle?”
Jiang Luoli meant every word she said.
Qiao Mianmian was very beautiful.
The sort of beautiful that people were comfortable with looking at for a long time.
Her face definitely made the cut for a female lead on the big screens.
Jiang Luoli always felt that given Qiao Mianmian’s looks, she was born to be in the entertainment circle.
Moreover, she had what it took to do well.
What she needed was simply an opportunity to showcase herself.
