Chapter 167 went through a process
A few days later.
Bian Zhi was dragged by Lin Ye to the crew to select actors.
On the way, Lin Ye excitedly took out the photo and handed it to Bian Zhi.
"Bian Zhi, these two are the new talents our company is promoting this year. One is Coco Lee and the other is Chen Xi. They're competing for the male and female lead roles. I've already spoken to Director Zhou before coming here. He said Coco Lee is fine for the second female lead, but whether Chen Xi can play the male lead depends on you watching the show first."
"After all, you're the author. But I think Director Zhou is wasting his time. Although Chen Xi's appearance is a little different from my prototype, the market really likes his looks, and he's been quite the topic lately. My company's profitability this year depends entirely on him.
You will go in and watch their audition later. Since you don't want to reveal your identity as the author, you can just be an audience member as my sister."
Bian Zhi nodded.
Lin Ye knew that Bian Zhi agreed.
Bian Zhi is essentially a science student with a strong mindset. She does not have the complicated thoughts and affectation of ordinary girls. She is very clear about the profit points of the market, so she never wastes time on choosing roles.
Because in her opinion, professional matters should be left to professionals.
Just like today's casting, she just agreed to Lin Ye and went through the motions.
She is only responsible for writing books. After she finishes writing the book and puts down her pen, what happens next has nothing to do with her.
How to present it is up to the director.
After arriving at the scene, Bian Zhi went to the bathroom. She never thought that she would meet Ou Moyuan and Chen Yuyan here.
Ou Moyuan's body probably hasn't fully recovered yet, and he's wearing a thick cloak.
Chen Yuyan was wearing red lipstick and a thin dress in the middle of winter, standing beside Ou Moyuan with a graceful look.
"Hey—isn't this Bian Zhi?" Chen Yuyan looked at Bian Zhi and damn it, she felt that she was even more dazzling. "This is a film crew, not a hospital. What are you doing here?"
Bian Zhi was too lazy to pay attention to her.
As she was about to walk around her, Chen Yuyan grabbed Bian Zhi's arm and challenged her, "What? You can't make it in the hospital anymore, so you come to the film set to make a living as an extra?"
Bian Zhi frowned and shook off Chen Yuyan's hand.
After standing still, Bian Zhi looked at Chen Yuyan with a faint smile. Chen Yuyan felt uneasy when she saw Bian Zhi, and took two steps back, "What are you laughing at?"
Bian Zhi looked at her straight in the eyes, "We really should let everyone see who is the one who can't make it anymore and has to come here to play a supporting role."
Chen Yuyan heard the sarcasm in Bian Zhi's tone.
Her face suddenly turned awkward, and she cursed in her heart, "Did he think she wanted to come to such a hellish place?!"
If Ou Moyuan didn't want to break up with her, would she come to such a place?
Later, it was by clarifying for Ou Moyuan, saying that she was the one who seduced Ou Moyuan in the video, that she got the opportunity to reveal the truth today.
Before she married into the Ou family, she was a minor internet celebrity for a while.
She believed that as long as she played the leading role in the famous book The Truth, she would be able to reach the peak of her career.
She had thought it through thoroughly. Men are reliable and sows can climb trees. While Ou Moyuan could still be used by her, she had to do everything she could to make money.
When Chen Yuyan wanted to fight back, she heard the staff shouting, "Audition for the female lead, is Chen Yuyan here?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yuyan immediately raised her hand to signal, her voice becoming gentle, "Here."
Staff: "Come here, get ready for the audition."
Chen Yuyan hooked the hair by her ear and said coquettishly, "Okay."
Only after the staff entered the room did Chen Yuyan look at Bian Zhi with a cold expression and sneered.
“Okay, I don’t have time to deal with you today. Once I get the role of the heroine in The Truth, even if you are the only daughter of the Lin family, I will not be afraid of your wealth.”
The book "The Truth" has a huge number of fans, and with that passionate kissing scene at the end, she will definitely become an instant hit and a rising star in the entertainment industry!
Chen Yuyan twisted her waist with determination as she entered the audition waiting area.
Bian Zhi found it funny when he looked at Chen Yuyan's back.
If she really used the truth to make Chen Yuyan famous, then she must have dug up Chen Yuyan's ancestral grave in her previous life.
Just as Bian Zhi was about to leave, Ou Moyuan came out of the bathroom.
Bian Zhi passed him by with no expression.
Ou Moyuan looked at Bian Zhi's back.
Even after so long, he still couldn't adapt to the fact that a woman who once loved him so deeply would become so dull now.
He seemed to be accustomed to her looking at him with love, hoping that he would respond.
When Bian Zhi walked in, casting had already begun.
She sat behind Lin Ye, holding a stack of papers handed to her by Director Zhou. On top was the name of the character, and below was the audition number.
When their number is called, the auditioning actor will enter.
After a deep bow, the actor begins to perform. If the director or screenwriter in front of them feels that the role is suitable for them, they will tick the box on the paper. Finally, the role with the highest support will get the role.
Of course, this rating standard only applies to supporting roles.
Only the director, assistant director and investors have the right to decide on important roles such as the male and female protagonists, the second male lead and the second female lead.
Of course there are some inside stories.
For example, in the scene before us, when selecting the second female lead, Lin Ye was one of the investors, and this role had already been selected, so after the discussion and audition, everyone spontaneously put a small check mark under Coco Lee's name.
It can be considered as a process.
After watching this scene, Bian Zhi felt a little bored. There were too many people auditioning. There were hundreds of people for the second female role alone. She felt dizzy and even had face blindness.
Seeing Bian Zhi's impatience, Lin Ye quickly leaned over and said to Director Zhou politely and kindly, "How about we just choose the male and female protagonists, or my sister will definitely leave early."
Lin Ye was relying on Bian Zhi's opinion to let Chen Xi be chosen as the male lead.
Director Zhou had no objection and directly said to his assistant, "Skip the second male lead and let the female lead come in and try first."
These words fell.
Someone came in from outside, it was Ou Moyuan.
Lin Ye looked at Ou Moyuan in confusion, then glanced at Director Zhou. Director Zhou touched his nose and explained to Lin Ye and Bian Zhi awkwardly.
"Ou's is the largest investor, so it's only natural for President Ou to come and visit."
Bian Zhi didn't say anything.
After a while, Chen Yuyan came in for an audition.
The whole audition scene was so embarrassing that Bian Zhi got goosebumps. She turned around speechlessly and looked at Director Zhou, who had sweat on his forehead.
Ou offered him a high price that he couldn't refuse, and also gave him some of Chen Yuyan's portfolio, which looked very good.
As soon as he arrived at the scene, this exaggerated facial expression almost killed him on the spot.
Bian Zhi twirled the pen in his hand and whispered, "Director Zhou's vision has been quite unusual lately."
Director Zhou's eyes wandered around awkwardly.
Ou Moyuan didn't watch Chen Yuyan's performance at all, he just looked at Bian Zhi and watched her put a big cross behind Chen Yuyan's name.
He frowned slowly.
He walked to Bian Zhi's side and asked softly, "Are you a judge?"
Bian Zhi was surprised why Ou Moyuan suddenly walked in front of her, and she sat aside in disgust.
Ou Moyuan stared at Bian Zhi's face, he was very puzzled.
Even someone like Lin Ye can only come in as an investor, but Bian Zhi actually has voting rights?
In what capacity did she join the judging team?
In order to secure Chen Yuyan's role as the heroine, he had tried every possible way to get people onto the jury a few days ago, but to no avail.
He didn't understand why Bian Zhi was sitting here.
Seeing that Bian Zhi didn't answer and looked disgusted, Ou Moyuan lowered his eyes, paused, and sat next to the director. He didn't say anything and handed over a check.
Director Zhou's eyes suddenly lit up.
Bian Zhi saw it, but only took a glance and then looked away indifferently.
She had been with Ou Moyuan for three years and was very familiar with some of his habitual practices.
Any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem.
Director Zhou is knowledgeable and experienced, and the amount of money that can make his eyes light up must be astonishing.
He was willing to spend money on Chen Yuyan.
