Shen Yu couldn’t guess Jing Yao and Zhu Ling’s complicated thoughts. He didn’t even notice that Zhu Ling was jealous of Zhang Yan.
Hence, he did not know that Zhang Yan’s words had helped him a lot.
He was conflicted now. Chen Xin had given him several roles and asked him to choose which one he wanted to guest star in.
Shen Yu hesitated for a long time before choosing someone he thought did not have many scenes in.
Although Jing Yao and the others had already received the notice that the audition was successful, Chen Xin didn’t intend to make it public immediately. His idea was to wait for all the actors to finish casting before publicly announcing it.
Regardless of whether the audition passed or not, Chen Xin got his assistant to send a message to everyone who participated in the audition.
Jiang Ying knew from her assistant, Xu Wei, that she did not pass the audition.
After Xu Wei told Jiang Ying the audition results over the phone, Jiang Ying fell silent. It had been a long time since she had experienced such a failure.
Xu Wei knew how much she valued this role and took the initiative to comfort her. “I still have two movie scripts. They’re not bad. Do you want to take a look and choose one?”
Jiang Ying didn’t answer her question, but suddenly asked, “Who won the audition in the end? Jing Yao?”
Xu Wei said, “There’s no news on the official Weibo account yet. They probably want to wait until all the roles are confirmed before announcing them again. However, there’s a high chance that it’s her.”
Jiang Ying did not speak, but Xu Wei could clearly sense that her breathing was much heavier than before. It was obvious that she was angry.
Xu Wei did not know what to say to comfort her.
“You’ve seen Jing Yao’s works. What do you think of her acting skills?” Jiang Ying suddenly asked.
Xu Wei paused for about three seconds before saying, “Among young actresses her age, her acting skills are still alright.”
It was the truth. It was obvious that Jing Yao used to be mediocre because of her poor resources. Otherwise, with her acting skills, she would have become popular long ago.
“Compared to me?” Jiang Ying asked again.
Xu Wei was really stumped this time. To be honest, it was probably very difficult for Jiang Ying and Jing Yao to determine the winner in terms of acting skills. It could only be said that they each had their own strengths.
However, at this moment, Xu Wei did not dare to say these words.
She organized her words and said cautiously, “You’re much more experienced than her, and you’re more famous than her. Now that you’re in the limelight, they don’t have to worry about the box office if they choose you. However, 1 don’t know what Chen Xin is thinking.”
Jiang Ying snorted coldly. “In this day and age, ability alone is not enough. With Liang Xun’s protection, she doesn’t have to worry about her future at all.”
Xu Wei sighed inwardly. In fact, Jiang Ying’s resources were also very good. There were still many large-scale television drama scripts for her to choose from.
However, Jiang Ying was very ambitious and had her own plans for the future. She knew that it would be very difficult for her to develop further if she only acted in television dramas. That was why she chose to change to the movie industry while she was still in the limelight.
Chen Xin was a famous director in the movie industry. It was said that he had spent a lot of effort on this script so that he could win an award.
If she could act in this work, even if she couldn’t get a personal award in the end, her resume would add on a gorgeous line. This would be very beneficial to her future development. Hence, Jiang Ying put a lot of effort into this role.
“Are they about to choose the second female lead?” Jiang Ying suddenly asked Xu Wei.
Xu Wei was stunned for a moment. After a while, she said, “The persona of the second female lead in this movie is not likable. It’s strenuous and thankless for you to choose to act in this role. Moreover, with your current status, it’s completely lowering your value to act as the second female lead. Your fans probably won’t agree.”
Jiang Ying snorted. “Do you still think that Jing Yao is a little invisible actress? Her net worth is even higher than many A-list female celebrities in the industry now. 1 heard that Shen Yu will play a role in this drama. With him around, the value of this movie will rise to another level. As long as I can enter, it will be meaningful for me to be the third female lead, let alone the second female lead.”
Xu Wei couldn’t refute it at all. She could only promise Jiang Ying that she would sort out the information about the second female lead in this movie for her..
