Yang Xinghe knew that Director Li would not believe it easily, after all, who would give their child so much money to invest? It was like a joke.
He explained, "Director Li, my sister isn't joking with you. This money is our family's allowance for Tuantuan, and she can spend it as she pleases. Since she decided to invest in your film, it must be because your film has potential and is sure to be a huge hit!"
Director Li immediately felt that Yang Xinghe had showered him with compliments.
The key point is that this shower of compliments made him feel really good!
This is so nice!
Director Li: Ahem!
Don't let it drift!
Director Li laughed and said, "Yang Xinghe, you make it sound like your mouth is blessed. Anyway, thank you for your praise, and I'm sure this drama will be a huge hit!"
Tuantuan chimed in, "Director, is 30 million enough?"
Director Li: "If there were more, I... I would make the special effects even more dazzling! I hope to use real sets instead of green screens to present a more realistic picture to the audience."
Tuantuan handed the black card to Director Li: "Okay, Director, I believe in you. Keep it up! Go for it!"
Director Li felt very warm looking at Tuantuan.
With Tuan Tuan's support, he is confident that he will be able to present this drama to the audience in a better way!
Having resolved the investment issue, Director Li now had another very troublesome matter to deal with.
So... who will play the second male lead?
The incident in Shenyang left Director Li with lingering fears.
If they find a male supporting actor with ulterior motives, the production team will definitely be ruined!
Thinking about this, Director Li had an even bigger headache.
What should we do?
Director Li was holding photos of several male celebrities given to him by his subordinates when he looked up and saw the little girl blowing bubbles with Wang Mengfei.
Wang Mengfei held the bubbles and blew a circle of bubbles.
Tuantuan clapped her hands happily: "Sister Mengfei, you're so great!"
Wang Mengfei's beautiful face was beaming with a bright smile as she looked at Tuantuan with doting eyes, clearly adoring this little sister.
Now that she is all alone, she has found a sense of warmth in Tuantuan's company.
"Tuanbao, you should try it too, this is really fun."
Tuantuan took the bubble and happily tried it out.
A ring of bubbles danced in the wind, drifting to and fro.
Wang Mengfei happily picked up her phone to take pictures of Tuantuan, then observed Xiao Ai's expression.
She needs to find another opportunity to seize on Xiao Ai's weaknesses in order to expose the person who wants to harm her!
Xiao Ai stood to the side, her expression normal, and there was no indication that anything was amiss.
Wang Mengfei wasn't in a hurry. Xiao Ai had been by her side for so long, so there was no rush.
At this moment, the director came over and said to Tuantuan, "Tuantuan, come here, Uncle wants to talk to you about something."
Just then, Wang Mengfei was also filming, so Tuantuan returned the bubble to her and followed the director.
Upon reaching the side, Tuantuan saw the director take out more than a dozen photos of handsome men from his pocket.
Tuantuan suddenly remembered a scene from a TV series, and then she became shy...
"Director, I'm still young, I don't need a boyfriend."
Yang Xinghe, who arrived upon hearing the news, was taken aback upon hearing this conversation.
What's going on?
The director also wants to introduce a potential partner to his sister?
Does the director have a death wish?
Yang Xinghe strode forward: "Director Li, are you planning to repay kindness with ingratitude?"
Director Li: ? ?
"Yang Xinghe, have you misunderstood? I didn't mean to introduce Tuantuan to someone."
Yang Xinghe pointed at the photos in his hand: "Then what do you mean by showing these photos to my sister?"
Tuantuan: "Isn't that how it's always portrayed in TV dramas? They carry a lot of photos and want to introduce someone to a potential partner."
Director Li was both amused and exasperated, but Tuantuan kept staring at him without blinking, so innocent and carefree.
Director Li explained, "You've misunderstood. These are the candidates I'm looking for for the second male lead. I'm worried about encountering another actor like Shen Cheng, so I specifically came to Tuan Tuan to ask for her advice on which one to choose."
Yang Xinghe & Tuan Tuan: ?
They really did misunderstand.
Yang Xinghe was extremely embarrassed, and Tuantuan was also a little ashamed.
Yang Xinghe sat down next to Tuan Tuan: "Little sister, then you take a look for Director Li."
Tuantuan knows fortune telling and face reading, so she should be able to tell, right?
Director Li arranged the photos neatly one by one for Tuan Tuan to view.
All ten photos feature handsome male celebrities.
Tuantuan looked at each one in turn, while Director Li and Yang Xinghe sat silently beside her, afraid of disturbing Tuantuan's thoughts.
After watching the last episode, Tuantuan pointed to one of the handsome young men and said, "This young man is not bad."
Yang Xinghe was embarrassed, and the director was stunned.
This male artist named Yu Ran is Yang Xinghe's latest signed artist.
She has appeared on variety shows and had minor roles in two TV dramas.
Currently, he does not have his own representative work.
Casting a newcomer as the second male lead is very risky.
Looking at the brother and sister, Director Li felt like he had been tricked.
But Tuantuan didn't know that Yu Ran was among the people he had chosen!
"Director Li, let me clarify first that my sister doesn't know who I've signed, and she's never been to my studio. Also, I didn't give you Yu Ran's photos; the person who screened them gave them to you."
Yang Xinghe quickly explained, fearing that the director would suspect that all of this was related to him and his sister.
The director asked Tuantuan, "Why did you choose him?"
Tuantuan said earnestly, "Because he is very polite, hardworking, and patient. My dad said that one must be patient and hardworking to succeed."
Tuantuan is very hardworking and patient.
Just then, the casting staff heard Yu Ran inside and quickly came over and said, "Director, there's a mistake. I didn't put Yu Ran in there! Yu Ran himself put it in! He insisted that he was suitable for the second male lead. But he's not a big star, so I turned him down. Who knew he would put his photo in there?"
Director Li: ...
Is this guy sending out resumes indiscriminately?
Yang Xinghe said awkwardly, "Yu Ran is indeed very hardworking. He is not afraid of hard work or being tired. He is only afraid of not having any work. I initially selected three male artists, but he was the only one who was willing to endure hardship, and he was patient and hardworking, so I signed him."
What else could Director Li say? The candidates had already been chosen; what else could he say?
"Alright, let Yu Ran come over and audition first. If he's good, we'll film his scenes tomorrow. We need to finish his scenes in the next couple of days."
Fortunately, Shen Cheng didn't have many scenes to film because of his arrogance; otherwise, if someone else were to film those scenes now, it would be exhausting!
Yang Xinghe led Tuantuan to the side, and Yu Ran was invited in.
Director Li randomly assigned him a scene as the second male lead, and the young man was right; his acting was indeed quite good.
Director Li immediately approved: "Okay, you're the one. Go back and study the script carefully now, and come to film tomorrow."
Yu Ran was stunned. Had the pie in the sky finally fallen on his head?
