Chapter 288: Meeting an acquaintance



Yun Shudai listened to Sister Yao's introduction while reading the script for more than two hours.

She read more than half of them, but the character that attracted her the most was her father's first love in the countryside.

The two people separated for various reasons. The male protagonist married the female protagonist and completely let go of his first love.

After the male protagonist got married, his first love also married a teacher in the local county town according to her parents' wishes.

Unfortunately, life was not going as planned and they finally divorced, leaving behind a daughter.

Later, relying on her skills, she opened a workshop in the county town. With the help of good policies, she was able to trade local handicrafts overseas. She never married and lived her own life, a true strong woman.

Although she doesn't have many scenes, she is more likable and lovely than the male lead's daughter.

And she watched the last scene where the third daughter was in love and there was a kissing scene.

"Sister Yao, has this role been decided?"

"It's not clear yet. Do you want to play her? She has very few parts."

Yun Shudai nodded: "But I think this role can add points."

"Let's take a look when we get there."

When they arrived in City C at around four in the afternoon, they went straight to the location where Director Liu was casting.

Yun Shudai then realized that they were already setting up the scenery.

"Director Liu, hello, this is Yun Shudai from our company, and this is her resume."

Yun Shudai also greeted Director Liu from behind Sister Yao: "Hello, Director Liu."

Director Liu nodded, looked at Yun Shudai carefully, and said, "Old Yao, let her try the makeup first, and let me take a look."

Yun Shudai didn't expect to come directly for the costume fitting. Don't they need to audition for the role? Sister Yao asked, "Director Liu, has the role of Zhuang Qing been cast? We also want to try out Zhuang Qing."

Director Liu frowned, glanced at Yun Shudai again, and said to Sister Yao, "Old Yao, the role of Lin Xin has better room for development than Zhuang Qing. You should think it over carefully."

Sister Yao smiled and said, "Let's try the makeup first."

Director Liu arranged for a staff member to take her to try on the costumes.

Sister Yao stayed and chatted with Director Liu and the others.

Yun Shudai took An An and Tian Tian to the makeup room.

When I arrived at the fitting room, I found out that today was the day for the crew to do their makeup.

No wonder, looking at the familiar faces in it, Yun Shudai felt that the filming should be about to start.

"Wei Qing?" "Shushu, it's you. Are you also in this crew?"

Yun Shudai didn't expect to meet Wei Qing here.

"I just got here, so I'm trying on my makeup first. What about you?"

“I play Lin Zhifu here.”

Yun Shudai congratulated, "You are the male lead."

"And you?"

"I tried Zhuang Qing."

"Zhuang Qing, we will have rival scenes from now on."

Yun Shudai smiled. She hadn’t decided yet and it depended on what the director thought.

Yun Shudai knew Wei Qing because they had worked together on a play before and they had quite a few scenes together.

She also knew his agent, Sister Mingyan. When nothing was wrong, they were all chatting and laughing. But when something went wrong, she didn't add insult to injury when he was down. They could be considered friends, so Yun Shudai could just laugh it off.

When she put on Zhuang Qing's outfit and braided her hair into the same pigtails as Lao He's, the director's eyes lit up.

Just now I saw Yun Shudai as a modern, bright and extraordinary beauty, but now, her lively eyes carry the simplicity and reserve of the generation of the 1970s and 1980s.

After a discussion, several people asked her to try Lin Xin, and finally they unanimously decided that Zhuang Qing was the one.

Not far away, Mingyan and Sister Yao said regretfully, "Actually, when she got into trouble last year, she called me, but I rejected her."

Sister Yao crossed her arms and smiled, "Do you regret it?"

Mingyan nodded: "How did she find your studio in the end?"

"Her acting teacher is Professor Liang from Yecheng Film and Television University, who is also the story background instructor in our circle."

Mingyan suddenly realized: "It's Mr. Liang, no wonder."

"The key is that my boss also likes her."

Mingyan nodded: "Your boss has always had a keen eye. Yun Shudai is lucky to have met your boss. If she had really come to my place, I probably wouldn't have been able to give her many notices a year."

Yun Shudai changed her clothes and came over to greet Sister Mingyan with a smile.

Sister Yao discussed the contract with the crew, and Yun Shudai took An An and Tian Tian into the car.

It was Tiantian’s first time on the crew and she was curious about everything. However, An An carefully reminded her not to take photos or gossip, and told her some things she needed to know as an assistant on the crew.
