Jiang Hua was busy with her own things all day and ignored Fei Yiming. Fei Yiming hadn't spoken to her since their last conversation. Although Jiang Hua felt a little disappointed, she thought it was better this way, at least this way neither of them would feel awkward.

Lost in thought, she was suddenly interrupted by a ringing phone. Seeing it was an unfamiliar number, she wondered what was going on. She hadn't made any new friends lately. She considered hanging up, but then decided against it, thinking it might be for some reason. However, after answering that call, Jiang Hua's entire life and career took a dramatic turn.

Jiang Hua answered the phone casually and skillfully, saying, "Hello, this is Jiang Hua. Who is this? What can I do for you? How did you get my number? I don't think I've given it to anyone recently. How did you get it?"

The man hadn't expected Jiang Hua to ask him so many questions. She looked completely different from her photos, but a more lively person was fine too. So, the man smiled at Jiang Hua and said, "Hello, my surname is Chen. You can call me Director Chen from now on. I specialize in making movies. I saw your photo in a magazine and I think you'd be perfect for a lead role in our film. How about we meet up and talk?"

Jiang Hua found it strange that she had been chosen by a director so easily. She hadn't done anything wrong, but what the director told her couldn't be fake, right? Whether it was true or not, she wanted to see for herself. She couldn't stay at that modeling agency anymore. Before, it would have been better, but now that agency had been bought off by Fei Yiming and belonged to him. Seeing Fei Yiming made her uncomfortable, so she decided to avoid him altogether. She could always switch agencies. However, she was worried that the phone call might be fake. There were so many phone scams these days; what if she accidentally fell for one? She was concerned for her safety.

So Jiang Hua happily said to the director on the other end of the phone, "Director Chen, is that right? I'm very interested in participating in that play you mentioned that's perfect for me. Is that play really suitable for me? How do you know I'm suitable for this role?"

Director Chen knew that if he made such abrupt phone calls, the other person would definitely suspect him, which was his mistake. It was normal for others to have doubts, but he was still very happy that the person he had chosen was very vigilant. So he happily said, "I think that role is really suitable for you. I saw your photo in a magazine and thought you were perfect for one of our roles."

When Jiang Hua heard that the director decided to cast her after seeing her photo in a magazine, she felt that the director's words were quite reliable. She knew that directors liked to choose actors from magazines to play the main characters in their movies, so Jiang Hua trusted what the director said.

But Jiang Hua didn't know why the director chose her out of so many magazines. It was very strange, so Jiang Hua asked, "Why did you choose me when there are so many beautiful people in those magazines? I don't think I'm one of the better-looking ones."

The director doesn't care whether you're good-looking or not. These days, directors only cast people they think are suitable for their roles. So even if Jiang Hua is ugly, she can be chosen by the director if the plot requires it. This fact is a bit hurtful, so the director changed his approach and told Jiang Hua: "That's because this is how it is here. You're not bad-looking, you just have a sweet look. I'm just missing someone like you."

Jiang Hua could sense the awkwardness even through the phone, but she chose to ignore it and said to the director, "Oh, okay, then I'd like to take a look at the script before deciding whether I want to participate. I'm afraid that if I don't act well in those scenes, it will delay your filming process."

The director didn't care if others saw his script, but he was on the phone and didn't know how to show it to Jiang Hua. In the end, Jiang Hua suggested, "Let me add you on WeChat now, and you can send me the script on your phone later."

The director sent the script to Jiang Hua. Jiang Hua looked at the script and her role seemed pretty good. She was quite satisfied with her part, and the pay seemed quite high, much more than she earned as a model. So Jiang Hua sent a message to the director saying that she agreed to be an actor in their production.

But instead of a message from the director, she received a call from him. Jiang Hua didn't know why the director would call, so she answered the phone and asked, "Director, is there something you need? I already sent you a message to show that I agree to the script, did you see it?"

The director saw the message, but he still wanted to discuss something with Jiang Hua, so he called her because of this. He said to Jiang Hua, "I'm calling you because I have something to tell you. It's a small request of mine. I don't know if you agree or not."

When Jiang Hua heard the director say that, she didn't think it was a big deal. Besides, what the director said should be related to the play. If so, then there was no big problem. So Jiang Hua said, "Then tell me what it is. I'll see if I can do it. If I can't, then forget it."

When the director heard Jiang Hua say this, he said to her in a sales pitch tone, "Here's the thing, if I want the people who are acting with you to be convinced, then I'll have to pick a part of the story and have you act in it. I don't know what you'll think, but you'll have to improvise on the spot."

When Jiang Hua heard the director say that, she didn't think there was anything wrong with it at all. Besides, when filming, she had to improvise on the spot. She could treat this as a learning experience. So Jiang Hua said, "No problem, I can agree to this."
