Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The director was silent for a long while. “Forget it. When the time comes, we’ll just cut away Mei Wange’s scenes. It’ll be Xiang Ling then.”
Only then did the producer heave a sigh of relief. After all, in comparison to an unimportant villain to 80 million, he would obviously choose 80 million.
Xiang Ling watched the director and producer discuss and asked her manager softly, “President Chen said that this role will be mine and that no one else can have it, right?”
“Yes, President Chen has said that if Ye Beisheng is in the production team, he will withdraw his investment! You see, President Chen still dotes on you.” Xiang Ling couldn’t help but feel proud.
As soon as she finished speaking, the director and producer finished their discussion as well.
The producer turned his head and spoke to Xiang Ling’s anticipation, “Xiang Ling, right? This role is yours…”
“I don’t agree.” Ye Beisheng stopped writing and calmly raised her head.
“B-tiers require emotions to erupt in a restrained manner. Xiang Ling’s performance was neither restrained nor explosive, making it impossible for me to associate her performance with Mei Wange. I don’t agree. Let’s have another person for her role.”
The audition hall instantly fell into a strange silence.
Xiang Ling was the first to react. She roared crazily, “What did you say?! Who the hell are you? This is the audition, who are you to speak to? The director has already agreed for me to act as Mei Wange. What right do you have to disagree?
Are you worthy of it!”
The producer also coughed softly. “Miss Ye, Xiang Ling’s role cannot be changed. You should know the reason. Let’s just forget it.” “I don’t know the reason. I only know that she should not get this role.” Xiang Ling was so angry that she smashed a cup beside her.
“Ye Beisheng, aren’t you sleeping with countless men? If you ask them to pay for a TV series, you would get it but the role of Mei Wange is mine. Even if you go ahead and sleep with any old men now, it wouldn’t change a thing!”
Ye Beisheng had finished writing the last note. She looked up lightly. “Let’s get the next person to come in.”
Xiang Ling was so angry that she called President Chen on the spot. The producer’s expression changed again and again, and he slammed the table.
“Miss Ye, Young Master Bai asked you to come to the audition because he wanted you to give some advice, not to reject it with a single vote! Do you think you’re the scriptwriter? You have the final say in who plays the role?”
“President Chen is the second largest investor in our production team. If he wants any actress to be assigned to any role, you have no right to say anything about it!”
“How much is President Chen investing?” Ye Beishen asked.
Xiang Ling’s breathing became smoother under the manager’s comfort. She couldn’t help but shout, “80 million! President Chen invested 80 million in me.
If I can’t act as Mei Wange, this 80 million will be gone!”
The manager also chimed in. “Producer Zhang, you have to think carefully. Do you want a rookie like Ye Beisheng or Xiang Ling and the 80 million that comes with it? Which one is the better choice?”
Ye Beisheng looked at the producer. “What if I also invest 80 million but I want her gone?”
The producer stood up angrily. “Miss Ye, do you think you can afford 80 million? Alright, even if you can take it out, do you know who CEO Chen is? Who do you think you are compared to CEO Chen. You’re just a little lover in Young Master Jiang Yu’s bed. Do you really think you’re some amazing person?! We can’t offend President Chen for you, please leave on your own!”
Ye Beisheng paused and stood up. “If Producer Zhang insists on using Xiang Ling to play Mei Wange, then I have no choice but to leave.”
She took out a document from her bag and gently handed it to the director. “Please sign it. From now on, this drama has nothing to do with the two of you.”
The producer was about to mock her when he suddenly saw the contents of the contract. His expression changed drastically..
