When he was preparing for the agreed time today, he specially asked Cao Leng to wait at the door to highlight that he took them seriously. This way, when he rejected her, he would not offend anyone so much. However, Director Dong did not expect the newcomer Jiang Huai brought to give him such a big surprise!
Director Dong stared at Tan Ming for a few seconds. In the end, he chose to break his habit. He turned to look at the suited man and said, “Producer Feng, I think her interpretation is especially good. She has great range. Let’s settle on her for the role of Shen Yi.”
Producer Feng smiled. “I have no objections. I just felt like I saw Shen Yi in a book. An’an is indeed very suitable for this role.”
When Tan Ming heard their conversation, she could no longer hide the joy on her face. “Thank you for your approval, everyone. I will definitely act to the best of my abilities!”
As long as Tan Ming performed as usual, this outcome was actually within Jiang Huai’s expectations.
A proud expression appeared on Jiang Huai’s face. He went forward and raised his eyebrows at Director Dong. “How is it? Director Dong, my sister’s acting skills didn’t disappoint you, right?”
Jiang Huai had clearly heard their conversation, but he still deliberately went forward to ask another round. He was very much like the parents of those students who scored high marks and insisted on finding an opportunity to talk about it to their relatives and friends. It was a classic show-off mentality.
Director Dong and Producer Feng had never seen that survival variety show, but they had worked together before and knew Jiang Huai’s temper. Seeing Jiang Huai’s attitude, they were a little surprised. However, when they heard him call her sister, they thought that the two of them were relatives, which explained why Jiang Huai took special care of her.
Knowing Jiang Huai’s protective personality, the two of them did not disappoint Jiang Huai by praising Tan Ming a few times. The more they praised, the more pleased he became. Tan Ming, on the other hand, looked embarrassed and blushed. However, such teasing helped her close the distance between her and the two people in the production team who had the final say.
Director Dong looked at Tan Ming and said, “An’an, you and Jiang Huai will appear in the show at the same time. Just follow him into the production team in half a month.”
Tan Ming nodded obediently. “Alright, Director Dong!”
Director Dong looked at Tan Ming in satisfaction. “Good luck!”
After the audition was successful, the production team would send the contract to the artist’s company. The agent would first check it before the artist signed it.
Therefore, after the audition, the two of them left first.
As a newcomer, Tan Ming was a little excited to be successfully selected on the first try. After returning to the car, she took out her phone to share this good news with her fans.
Jiang Huai reached out to hold Tan Ming’s phone and reminded her, “An’an, there’s an unwritten rule in the production team. Before they announce it officially, we can’t publish any relevant news, even if we have a contract.”
When Tan Ming heard this, she put away his phone and asked curiously, “Why is it still not allowed after signing the contract? Could it be that the production team will go back on their word? Aren’t they afraid of losing money?”
Jiang Huai looked at Tan Ming’s curious face and smiled as he reached out to tap her forehead. He explained, “There are very few cases of regret, but it’s not unheard of. Some rich fathers insist on switching people in at the last minute. Why would they care about the penalty fee? Director Dong’s production team is still considered good. The actors he has chosen will rarely get replaced. It’s hard to say for other directors.”
Tan Ming sighed softly. “This dog-eat-dog world is the same everywhere. Although I knew it a long time ago, I still can’t help but sigh when I hear such things.”
Jiang Huai raised his eyebrows slightly. Perhaps it was because he was standing on the top of the pyramid, as a person with vested interests, he was used to looking down on such a reality. There was no fluctuation in his heart at all. “The fittest survives. It’s natural selection.”
Tan Ming pouted but could not refute. The person who gets replaced does not even have the right to complain. This was the power of capital. The only thing she could do was to make herself stronger.
The acting studies had come to an end. For the rest of the time, Zhao Bing only arranged lines and acting lessons for Tan Ming. When she entered production, she planned to let the teacher follow her. After all, Tan Ming’s basics were not very solid. It was better to have someone to guide her during her first filming.
Tan Ming spent the morning attending performance lessons. In the afternoon, she went to Tianqi to familiarize herself with the company’s business. At night, she temporarily stopped learning martial arts because her master had returned to his city. However, she still had to take an hour every night to do physical training and boxing. The focus of this was to train her body’s reflexes..
