"Sister Wen was forced to stop filming, but fans don't care about that. You can imagine how much damage the public opinion will do to you."
Tang Yaoyao raised an eyebrow, as if she hadn't heard: "Looking forward to it?"
"Brother Yao, are you really planning to compete? You need to think it through. Not to mention the all-star lineup, Xiao Wen's fans alone will be hard to handle."
"This is my chance to advance and transform; it's all or nothing," Tang Yaoyao said casually, as if she didn't take these difficulties seriously.
Su Mei said, "You're right, Brother Yao. This really is an opportunity. I've inquired around, and there aren't many artists who dare to go against Xiao Wen. Nobody dares to take on this hot potato. There are a few clueless young artists, but their acting skills are all subpar."
Tang Yaoyao knew that Su Mei had not exaggerated at all.
Although Xiao Wen is not the top star in the entertainment industry, she is practically the same. She started acting at the age of five and is a child star. Not only does she come from a good family, but she is also excellent in every way. She can be described as a favored daughter of heaven.
This time, she broke her leg and lost a major role that was originally intended for her, so she must be very resentful.
"Brother Yao, why aren't you saying anything?"
Tang Yaoyao snapped out of her thoughts and lazily curved her lips: "These things always require someone to be the troublemaker, and unfortunately, that's me."
"Are you really sure?"
Tang Yaoyao nodded: "Tell President Peng that we should go straight to the audition and not consider it."
“Xiao Wen…”
Tang Yaoyao interrupted her in a low voice: "My beauty, there's nothing in this world that I'm afraid of, let alone a woman?"
"Brother Yao, I believe you."
"Um."
After hanging up the phone, Tang Yaoyao opened the script for the second female lead in "The Lonely One".
The second female lead is named Rong Qianqian. She is a tragic character. During the war between the two countries, her father, the Great General of the State, died on the battlefield, and the General's Mansion declined from then on.
Her mother was a courtesan, the top courtesan at the Drunken Red Mansion. Her father took a liking to her at first sight and married her. Even though he made her a princess, she was never treated with respect by anyone from childhood to adulthood.
The female lead, Lu Yi, plays the Ninth Princess, who is deeply in love with her. She often visits the palace to play with the Ninth Princess and eventually falls in love with the Ninth Princess's third brother.
The third and fifth princes were the most outstanding among the princes and had long coveted the throne.
The Ninth Princess falls in love with one of the Third Prince's guards, played by Li Helong.
Therefore, the Ninth Princess also sided with her Third Brother, and the two sisters' relationship grew stronger day by day.
She and the Third Prince were mutually in love.
In order to have a reason to launch an attack on the Mongols and gain merit in battle, the third prince plotted against the Mongol prince on the night of their wedding. Under the influence of drugs, he raped her.
Murong Qianqian thought she had finally found a lifelong bond with the Third Prince, but in the end, she became nothing more than a sacrifice in the Third Prince's power struggle.
Ironically, the emperor did not actually intend to attack the Mongol Kingdom, but she was already a withered flower and a fallen woman, how could she be worthy of his son? So he made up a story that she had fallen in love with a Mongol prince, and under the guise of fulfilling her dream as the orphan of the general's family, he married her off to the Mongol Kingdom.
Her reputation sounds good, but having an affair on her wedding day is something outsiders can't forgive. She was condemned by millions of people, and the man she loved never saw her again after that incident on her wedding night.
When she was dressed in her wedding gown and sent away, she wanted to commit suicide.
But as the eldest daughter of the Great General who protects the country, she cannot afford to make any mistakes at this critical juncture. Otherwise, if she makes a mistake, her entire family will be implicated, her father will be buried deep in the underworld, and his bones will be scattered to the winds.
Murong Qianqian's final scene is her wedding in a red dress. Her ending will be told from the perspective of the Ninth Princess, where the Ninth Princess hears the devastating news that she has died.
How could the Mongol prince truly love her? After a year of special circumstances, she was left alone and forced to marry into another country. Being a woman, she was subjected to all sorts of humiliation by the Mongol prince. Upon learning of her past with the third prince, he offered her to his soldiers for their amusement. Unable to bear the humiliation, she drew her sword and committed suicide.
After reading the script, Tang Yaoyao felt that Murong Qianqian was too pitiful. Women in ancient times were truly pitiful, with too many things they had no choice but to do.
He spent his whole life loving the wrong person, and ruined his life in the process.
She was curious about the Third Prince's fate; after all, his trusted bodyguard was the true protagonist, the Third Prince seeking revenge for his brother, who later unexpectedly seized the throne, leading to the Ninth Princess's family's destruction.
But the Ninth Princess has a good ending; she meets someone who truly loves her, and he will dedicate his entire life to protecting her alone.
Tsk tsk.
Nowadays, screenwriters are getting better and better at writing melodramatic stories, but it must be said that the character Murong Qianqian is indeed good, able to resonate with the audience and thus gain more attention.
It's such a pity that Xiao Wen lost this role.
Su Mei called again: "Brother Yao, I'll come pick you up for the audition at 10 a.m. tomorrow."
"So rushed?"
Su Mei nodded: "So you must read the script tonight, and tomorrow's audition should just be a random scene."
"Okay, I understand."
Are you confident?
Tang Yaoyao smiled, her lips moving listlessly: "Just celebrate for me."
"Okay, I won't bother you anymore. Good night."
Su Mei knew that Yao Ge was determined to win this time, so she had no choice but to offend Xiao Wen.
the next day.
The cast and crew of "The Lonely One".
When they heard that an artist was coming to audition, everyone looked on with amusement, not taking it seriously at all.
There were many actresses before, but none of them satisfied director Xu Donglai. Xiao Wen's image had already won the director's heart.
It's almost impossible to find someone who surpasses Xiao Wen.
However, they would never just find any actress to start filming. Even if she was a newcomer, she had to be able to portray the sense of vicissitude that Murong Qianqian possessed.
After all, this drama boasts a star-studded cast, and if even one actor's performance is subpar, it could negatively impact the overall production.
While Tang Yaoyao and Su Mei were still at the door, they saw one or two celebrities come out, their eyes red and looking very sad.
Su Mei muttered to herself, "This Xu Donglai is even more demanding than Director Zhao. His films and TV series have frighteningly high box office numbers. Everyone is scrambling to work with him. I heard that several very talented actresses in the industry, who were willing to offend Xiao Wen, auditioned but failed. One of them was even kicked out. I heard that he has a strange temper and doesn't talk much."
"In a little while, all you need to do is smile and don't worry about anything. Leave everything to me."
Su Mei nodded: "Now, it's all up to you."
Tang Yaoyao smiled gently and walked in with Su Mei.
Immediately, someone came to greet her and politely asked, "Hello, Ms. Tang, please wait a moment in the waiting area."
Tang Yaoyao nodded: "Okay."
Just then, a noisy sound of footsteps came, and a woman who was surrounded by stars walked in from outside. Her aura alone made it clear that the big sister had arrived!
