Yu Siqi also looked over with a hint of pride.
She wanted to see what kind of person deserved everyone’s attention.
Click click click.
The footsteps were getting closer.
The next second…
A beautiful figure appeared in everyone’s field of vision.
She had a petite face, fair skin, exquisite facial features, and especially a pair of black eyes that were shining brightly.
Her image and temperament were definitely the best in the comics world. She wouldn’t lose even if she stood next to a celebrity!
Jiang Yining looked up and met their scrutinizing gazes. She was slightly surprised, but she didn’t show any fear. “You’re all here so early. Didn’t we agree to meet at 12 noon?”
She arrived on time.
“It’s indeed 12 noon, but we can early to discuss the script.”
Director Ma Yishao said politely.
“Oh, I see. Thank you for your efforts.” Jiang Yining reached out and shook hands with Ma Yishao.
Ma Yishao briefly introduced himself.
Jiang Yining said, “I know you. When I was young, I watched your TV series. They were excellent.”
“That’s my great fortune.”
Indeed, it was fortunate. Being remembered by the rising star in the IP world and the Young Mistress of the Lu family, there would be no shortage of opportunities for future projects.
Not only were there countless scenes to shoot, but they were also top-notch scripts.
Ma Yishao thought happily.
Next, the screenwriter Ding Ling, the male lead Qu Ze, and the female lead Yu Siqi introduced themselves.
Bo Qin stood up and said, “It’s my honor to be able to invite everyone. However, let’s make it clear first. This is our company’s main IP this year. Everything prioritizes A^iss Jiang’s wishes. If anyone dares to upset her, I won’t be pleased.”
The investor was the boss.
Not to mention Bo Qin’s influence in the entertainment industry.
Since he had already said so, the people under him were naturally eager to flatter Jiang Yining.
Who would take things too hard and make her unhappy?
Just a moment ago, Yu Siqi was still muttering in her heart, thinking that Jiang Yining wasn’t worthy of them waiting for so long. At this moment, when she heard Bo Qin speak, she dared not act rashly.
Jiang Yining smiled politely and said, “Mr. Bo, don’t make it sound so scary. Actually, I don’t ask for much, just to faithfully recreate the script as much as possible. You guys can relax. I’m usually very casual with people.”
Another round of flattery ensued.
Jiang Yining had never liked such a hypocritical atmosphere, so she took the initiative to discuss the script.
The scriptwriter Ding Ling was very compatible with her.
Many of their thoughts coincided.
After a pleasant discussion, they decided on the general direction of the adaptation.
Ma Yishao then asked Jiang Yining about the main cast.
Jiang Yining glanced at them and whispered a few words to Ma Yishao.
Yu Siqi and Qu Ze’s hearts immediately tightened.
Was this an agreement for them to play the roles, or did she disagree?
They had thought that the Young Mistress of the Lu family was young and would be more shrewd.
However, they didn’t expect that when they sat face to face with her, they realized that she was brilliant in social interactions and that her words were flawless.
For example, at this moment.
They couldn’t discern her real thoughts at all.
Don’t forget, they were actors, so they were the best at reading people’s expressions…
If even they couldn’t see through it, others wouldn’t stand a chance.
Ma Yishao nodded and said, “Then we’ll arrange another day for a few more people to audition.”
“Sure.”
Jiang Yining agreed.
After hearing that, Yu Siqi and Qu Ze sensed a hint of rejection.
Their moods plummeted.
However, they didn’t want to offend this Young Mistress, so they forced themselves to keep smiling.
Jiang Yining didn’t talk to them either. She called Bo Qin to serve the dishes and said, “I’m starving. Boss Bo, don’t treat me like a slave to get the film done as soon as possible.”
“How would I dare? If I really starve you and something happens to you, won’t your Mr. Lu take a knife and hack me to death?” Bo Qin hurriedly called the waiter to serve the dishes.
A sumptuous feast was served on the table like flowing water.
However, Qu Ze didn’t have much of an appetite. He moved his chopsticks a few times and sneaked out. He said to his assistant, Bai Yang, “I heard from Miss Jiang that she seems to be dissatisfied with me and Yu Siqi. Please try to persuade Boss Bo again for me. I really want to act in this drama. Even if I have to cut my salary in half, I’m willing.”
Bai Yang laughed and scolded, “Do you think Boss Bo can decide on this? Why don’t you take a look at how big Jiang Yining’s backer is!”
Her maternal family was the Gu family, a prestigious family in the capital city!
Her husband’s family was the Lu family, one of the four major aristocratic families in A-City!
Her best friend was from the Yuan family, one of the four prominent families in A-City!
She was studying at Qing University and had apprenticed under Qi Bai. Her painting skills were amazing!
How could such a little ancestor listen to Bo Qin?
Bo Qin should listen to her.
Bai Yang had been in the entertainment industry for so long and had seen many things, but he had never seen a girl like Jiang Yining, who was a goddess, stepping into the muddy waters of the entertainment industry.
“Just help me convey my intentions. It won’t take you much effort. If I can act in this drama and become popular, wouldn’t I be able to gain a firm foothold? No one will ridicule me as a pretty boy with a greasy appearance and no acting skills anymore. You’ll have a good reputation too, won’t you?”
Qu Ze refused to give up.
Bai Yang was silent for a moment, then leaned in front of him and said in a low voice, “If you really want to act, you don’t have to go through Bo Qin. Couples like Jiang Yining and Lu Zhi were mostly arranged through marriage and didn’t have any feelings for each other. No matter how loving they were on the surface, they were all playing their own games in private. If you go grab Jiang Yining’s heart, do you still have to worry about her not giving you the role?” “What nonsense are you spouting!”
Qu Ze understood the meaning behind his words and pushed him away, his face red with anger.
Bai Yang laughed coldly, saying, “You can continue to act high and mighty. Look at the new actors who gained fame last year. How much difference is there between you and Yu Siqi? Qu Ze, the entertainment industry has no lack of handsome men and beautiful women. Every show doesn’t necessarily need you. Unless you have something extraordinary about you, understand?”
“I just want to act. I don’t want to engage in those flashy things.”
Qu Ze’s face was ashen as he said.
Bai Yang spread his hands and said, “Up to you. Let me give you one last piece of advice. If you continue to be so stubborn, the entertainment industry will forget you sooner or later.”
After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave.
Unexpectedly, just as he turned his head, he saw the main figure they were discussing standing not far away.
She looked at them coldly.
This was like a bucket of cold water being poured over his head.
The person who got splashed felt bone-chilling cold. Bai Yang stammered, “Miss… Miss Jiang, why are you here?”
When Qu Ze heard this, he turned around abruptly.
His eyes met with Jiang Yining’s indifferent gaze, and his heart contracted.
“Miss Jiang…”
Jiang Yining said calmly, “I came out to get some fresh air. I didn’t expect to hear such a good show.”
Bai Yang was drenched in sweat and dared not breathe.
His mouth was really lacking!
Why did he say such unpleasant words?
However, Qu Ze remained calm and said, “Miss Jiang, 1 would like to strive for the role of the male lead. Please give me a chance.”
“I’ve already told Director Ma that the male and female leads will be auditioning in front of me. If you really want to act, then prepare well,” Jiang Yining said.
“Alright, I’ll definitely satisfy you.”
Qu Ze clenched his fists and said seriously.
Jiang Yining nodded. She looked at Bai Yang and said clearly, “1 have a good relationship with my husband. There’s no need to send men to me. This approach may please others, but it’s an insult to me. 1 don’t want to hear the same thing again, understand?”
“I understand, 1 understand. I get it.”
Bai Yang repeated like a broken record.
Jiang Yining chuckled and returned to the private room..
