Chapter 16 This feeling is very...
Sang Wan frowned and looked at Lu Jinxuan. Didn’t they say they were ready to invest in the filming? Why wasn’t it mature yet?
On second thought, he is indeed a rich kid who invests money but doesn't manage it.
I'm afraid the director didn't want to offend the boss or cause misunderstandings, so he made an appointment to explain in person.
Director Zhang sighed again and said sincerely, "I really don't want to delay Ms. Sang's precious time. Once everything is ready, I will contact you as soon as possible. I hope we can still have a chance to work together then."
Bai Wei was so happy that she was beaming with joy. It was like someone was giving her a pillow just when she was sleepy.
Simply perfect!
Lu Jinxuan was stunned. Although he was not in charge of the company, he was still aware of the progress of the project.
"Director Zhang, wasn't it finalized a while ago? Why..."
Director Zhang waved his hand. "Mr. Lu, every project has loopholes. Some of our company's processes are incomplete. You don't go to the company very often, so..."
Lu Jinxuan looked frustrated and looked at Sang Wan apologetically, "Miss Sang, I'm sorry."
Sang Wan curled her lips, "It's okay, Mr. Lu also means well."
Bai Wei was thrilled, but remained expressionless. "If there's a chance in the future, think of our Sang Wan. Even if this cooperation doesn't work out, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
Xu Mingyue received the news from Sang Wan last night and cried for a long time in front of Lin Lan and Xu Shiming. Lin Lan couldn't swallow this, so she made an appointment with Sun Meixi, Lu Jinxuan's mother.
Wang Sheng hasn't calmed down yet. If anything goes wrong between Xu Mingyue and his son again, Wang Sheng will probably be even more anxious.
Although she didn't like Xu Mingyue, she had to accept her as her daughter-in-law.
Just as they were about to order in the private room, Sun Meixi pushed the door open with Lin Lan and Xu Mingyue.
"Son, I just heard from the manager that you were here, so I came here with your Aunt Lin."
As Sun Meixi was speaking, she saw Sang Wan and her eyes suddenly turned cold.
This girl really looks like her vixen mother, but her temperament is more gentle and charming, while her mother is very noble.
"Mom, why are you here too?"
Sun Meixi smiled, dignified and noble, "Mingyue has been thinking about you all the time. No matter how busy you are at work, you can't neglect her."
Lin Lan looked at Sang Wan with surprise, "Wanwan, I didn't expect you to be here too. We were discussing work."
Her voice made Sang Wan sneer, but he didn't look at her or respond. Instead, he looked at Lu Jinxuan.
"Mr. Lu, tomorrow night, my friend's bar is having its anniversary celebration. I'd like to invite you over for a drink. I don't think I can finish this meal today."
Lu Jinxuan felt even more guilty and apologized, "I'm so sorry, it's my fault for not being well prepared. I made you make this trip in vain. I'll pick you up tomorrow night."
Sang Wan nodded, her pretty smile was pure and charming, yet not vulgar, making people unable to look away.
Seeing Lu Jinxuan's obsessed look, Xu Mingyue suddenly felt angry.
Lin Lan knew her daughter's personality, so she held her hand and patted it, signaling her to calm down.
With Sun Meixi, there is more than half hope.
Lu Jinxuan is a filial person, especially since his father left in recent years, which makes him feel even more distressed for his mother.
So even though he didn't like Xu Mingyue, he didn't embarrass her. He even thought that as long as his mother liked her, he could try to accept Xu Mingyue.
But when he saw Sang Wan the night before yesterday, his heart was out of control.
Sang Wan and Bai Wei left. As they got into the car, Bai Wei excitedly said, "Wan Wan! Great news! Director Luo called and said he's planning on casting you as the leading actress in the S+-rated production 'The Storm'! We're going to audition tomorrow at 3 pm!"
Sang Wan was also startled, then smiled, "Didn't you say the second female lead? Sister Wei, when did you get so good at keeping secrets?"
Bai Wei felt aggrieved. "I was also surprised when I received the call. They originally wanted you to play the second female lead. After all, the actors are all big names. You have little experience and you need to learn the ropes. I didn't expect them to give you the first female lead directly. It was Director Luo who called me personally."
Sang Wan was completely stunned. Could such a good thing happen?
Bai Wei smiled and said, "You have good acting skills, strong plasticity, and no scandals. Director Luo must have seen the shining point in you."
Sang Wan thought about it and it was not impossible. After all, she had worked diligently and hard in the past three years.
"Qi Qi, how's the investigation into my grandfather going?"
"Sister Wan, I've checked every nursing home, sanatorium, and rehabilitation center in Shenzhen, but there's no news about the old man."
Bai Wei sighed, "Don't worry, your father wouldn't dare to do anything rash. He's only doing it for the money, and he doesn't want to kill anyone."
Sang Wan nodded and told Qi Qi, "Find more people to continue the investigation."
…
The next day at three o'clock in the afternoon, at the film and television company.
Sang Wan came in wearing high heels and a black halter dress, looking radiant.
The white, straight, thin back is exposed.
The cheeks were lightly contoured with a few strokes of makeup.
Elegance with an unconcealable charm.
Bai Wei couldn't help but sigh when she saw her, "Wanwan, I think I'm definitely going to be the most famous agent in the industry. With your figure and looks, you're definitely going to be a big hit."
Sang Wan smiled, her red lips parted, "Then you have to hold on to my thighs tightly. If you treat me badly, I will change my agent."
Bai Wei rolled her eyes at her and said, "You're so flattered after just a few compliments. Who's been with you all the way to conquer the world?"
Qi Qi smiled and said, "The military advisor has made an invaluable contribution. How could Wanjie possibly withdraw the military advisor?"
Sang Wan thought to herself, she had never thought about whether she would become famous or not, but she had entered the entertainment industry just because of a dream and gave up her favorite fashion design. Even she found it unbelievable.
The three of them chatted and laughed as they entered the audition waiting area.
Song Ziqian walked in, saw Sang Wan, frowned and walked over.
"Sang Wan, long time no see."
Sang Wan raised his eyes and glanced at her, then nodded with a curved lip.
Neither hot nor cold.
Song Ziqian debuted a year earlier than Sang Wan, and the two are equally matched.
Always being compared.
Sang Wan is beautiful and has good acting skills, while Song Ziqian relies on her connections.
Even so, she was always outshined by Sang Wanya.
Whenever they compete for the same role, Sang Wan is always the final winner.
However, her background has always been a mystery in the entertainment industry. She comes from an ordinary family, but has amazing resources.
In Luo Zheng's drama, she also strived for the second female lead.
The two were not familiar with each other and had never worked together.
At the beginning of the year, after Sang Wan's "A Fallen Love" became a hit, Song Ziqian became jealous and attacked her on Weibo.
The two groups of fans were arguing with each other, and finally she couldn't stand the pressure and publicly apologized on Weibo.
The apology statement remained on Weibo for a week.
Seeing that Sang Wan ignored her, Song Ziqian smiled contemptuously, "I heard that Lu Corporation wants to invest in this drama and they want to enter the entertainment industry. You can't snatch the second female lead from me."
Her agent told her that Sang Wan was also campaigning for the second female lead, and she came today too. It seemed like the two of them were going to compete with each other.
But Song Ziqian was not worried. Instead, she was full of confidence and was determined to play the second female lead.
Sang Wan didn't take it seriously, her lips curled up, "Really? Then let me congratulate you in advance, for playing the second role in a row."
Song Ziqian gritted her teeth, she also played the second female lead in her last drama.
Although she debuted earlier than Sang Wan, she has not played the leading female role in as many works as Sang Wan.
There were quite a few people at the scene, so Song Ziqian didn't dare get angry. She leaned over and whispered in her ear, "You don't like the second female lead, and you still came to audition? This is so pretentious. It won't be good if it gets out."
Sang Wan ignored her, glanced at her, and leisurely looked through his phone.
At this time, Director Luo Zheng walked in steadily.
Song Ziqian's agent quickly came over and said, "Director Luo, it's been a long time since we last met. Thank you for your support."
Luo Zheng didn't look at her, glanced at the waiting area, and walked towards Sang Wan.
After all, Bai Wei had been working in the group for many years. Seeing Luo Zheng pat Sang Wan, they both stood up.
"Director Luo, I've heard so much about you!"
Luo Zheng smiled gently and shook hands with Bai Wei and Sang Wan, "Please come in, both of you."
Song Ziqian was stunned. Her outstretched hand stopped in mid-air, as if frozen.
When Sang Wan entered the venue, the atmosphere suddenly became quiet.
Luo Zheng's team is very strong. They are not too interested in traffic stars. What they want is strength and reputation.
But when such a beautiful woman comes in, it is inevitable that people will look at her sideways.
The assistant director next to her just looked up at her and was completely conquered by her beauty.
The beautiful face is captivating.
She is born with a charming figure and a rare temperament.
Luo Zheng saw that he was lost in thought and patted him, his eyes seemed to say, wipe the drool from the corner of your mouth.
The assistant director, who had also been in the entertainment industry for over a decade, smiled wryly and said, "Sang Wan is quite a rising star. Seeing her in person today, she looks even better than on screen."
Sang Wan didn't act pretentiously. She just smiled slightly and said in a sweet voice, "Thank you, Director Gao, for the compliment."
Although Luo Zheng was hindered by capital, he still got to know Sang Wan and watched her works in the past two years. She had made great progress, and her acting skills and demeanor had improved by leaps and bounds.
He wasn't too worried about using her. If it really didn't work, he could just give more guidance to both sides, which would only be a waste of time.
But the necessary procedures cannot be omitted, otherwise it will give people a chance to criticize.
"Miss Sang, please try this scene."
Sang Wan took the script, read it for two minutes, and then put it down.
When she raised her eyes again, they were filled with murderous intent, a stark contrast to the charming and affectionate look she had just had.
The sharp gaze directed at the assistant director frightened him.
Director Gao sighed inwardly, wow, this is the revenge heroine herself.
The performance was smooth and flowing, even the action scenes were so fluid.
Bai Wei could clearly see the excitement in Luo Zheng's eyes. She was almost certain to get the leading female role.
The assistant director was amazing, but also cautious, and gave Sang Wan another scene with obvious emotional layers to try.
Luo Zheng couldn't stop it.
Sang Wan was not being pretentious. This was the norm when applying for a role. Moreover, it was Director Luo's movie, so the request was not excessive.
In less than ten minutes, in a simple scene of rivalry, the character she plays goes from being ignorant and shy when they first meet, to being heartbroken and desperate when there is misunderstanding, and finally to being relieved and compassionate. The emotions progress layer by layer and the transitions are natural and smooth.
Especially the tearful smile at the end, which shows the girl's brokenness but also the character's tenacity, which makes people feel nervous.
The assistant director was so excited that he jumped up from his chair, his mouth open for a long time before finally saying, "That's it! This feels so right."
