Everyone initially thought the director would send them home to wait for news, but Fu Zhuocheng announced the results directly.
"Congratulations to Lin Yusheng and Qin Qiandai."
Qin Qiandai was cast as Lu Xiaoling, while no one was chosen for the role of Xia Li.
Upon hearing the result, Deng Xingwen looked at Lin Yusheng in disbelief, then secretly clenched her fist.
She was unwilling to accept it and gritted her teeth in hatred.
Ye Jun'er directly questioned, "Why her?"
Fu Zhuocheng explained, "Ms. Ye's acting skills are very good, but Lin Yusheng has a better understanding of the character."
"Understanding the character is certainly important, but if her acting is not good, can a drama be perfected just by understanding the character?"
"From what I just saw, her acting was very good."
Ye Jun'er crossed her arms and scoffed, "Just a short clip, one line, and you're already judging her acting skills? I don't remember her ever acting before. She doesn't even have an assistant or agent. She's a complete newbie. I'm telling you right now, she absolutely cannot act well."
Deng Xingwen stood up with a smile and said gently, "Although this has nothing to do with me, I still want to say that acting is not something you can do just because of your family background, connections, or backing. When the show airs, netizens won't hold back their criticism."
"Also, I remember that the character Chu Yuexi has a lot of action scenes. I don't know if Miss Lin can handle it."
“This…” Some people began to waver.
Lin Yusheng sighed silently, then a faint anger rose in her chest.
"I said, is it so hard to admit that someone else did better? If you lost, you lost. Where do you get the confidence that I couldn't do better than you?"
Lin Yusheng's cool and aloof tone carried an unquestionable air as she continued to the director, "Director Fu, I'm confident I can play this role well. I'm a very good dancer, and although action scenes are still unfamiliar to me, I'm willing to learn. As for the company I'm signing with, I'd like to meet your president later, is that alright?"
"Meet President Lu? You want to sign a contract with Shenggan?" Fu Zhuocheng asked in surprise.
Lin Yusheng smiled and said sincerely, "Of course I want to."
Ye Jun'er was already furious when she heard Lin Yusheng's words. She pointed at Lin Yusheng and cursed, "You actually said I lost to you? You don't even deserve it. You should know who you are."
Lin Yusheng's face turned completely cold. "What kind of person am I? Your acting skills are indeed good, but your emotional intelligence is also really low. Instead of spending your time pointing fingers at me here, you should learn how to be a decent person, improve your own quality, stop acting like a big shot everywhere, and also, stay away from all kinds of shady places."
Lin Yusheng never considered Ye Jun'er an enemy, but she never expected her to be like this in private.
"What...what nonsense are you talking about?" Ye Jun'er's expression changed, and she was almost jumping up and down in a panic.
Fu Zhuocheng had a fairly good understanding of the entertainment industry, and seeing Ye Jun'er's reaction, he knew that what Lin Yusheng said was probably true.
He stepped in to smooth things over, saying, "Alright, alright, those who are not involved can leave now."
Ye Jun'er glared angrily at Fu Zhuocheng; she simply couldn't accept the fact that she had lost to Lin Yusheng.
"Okay, you've all done a great job. Lin Yusheng, you'd better wait for my lawyer's letter."
Lin Yusheng smiled and said, "Okay, if I don't receive it, you're a dog."
If Ye Jun'er knew Lin Yusheng's identity as the daughter of the Lin family, she would never have dared to speak like that.
But apart from Deng Xingwen, no one else present knew.
Since Deng Xingwen and Lin Yusheng had a feud, she naturally wouldn't reveal Lin Yusheng's identity.
Only a fool would do something that boosts the morale of others while diminishing one's own.
After most of the people had left, Fu Zhuocheng smiled and looked at Lin Yusheng, "You little girl, aren't you afraid of offending people?"
“There are some people who won’t let me off the hook even if I don’t offend them, so why should I keep suffering?”
"Hahaha, well said. The entertainment industry is missing people with your genuine personality," Fu Zhuocheng said with a laugh.
"You just said you wanted to see President Lu, is that true?"
Lin Yusheng nodded, "Really? I'd like to sign with Shenggan. I would appreciate Director Fu's recommendation."
"An introduction is no problem, but our CEO Lu is rather aloof, so don't be scared off."
"No, I've seen him a few times."
Fu Zhuocheng suddenly realized that she was originally recommended by Lu Zhengye, how could he have forgotten about that?
"Haha, I had completely forgotten about that. Signing a contract is good too. Once you're signed with the company, you'd better go and teach me a few more classes. You're not a science major, and although I saw that your acting was pretty good, I'm still quite worried."
"I have the same idea. There's still some time before filming for 'Jianghu Ling' starts, and I definitely won't waste that time."
"Okay, okay."
Fu Zhuocheng had a good impression of Lin Yusheng; at least she was humble and eager to learn.
I don't know how things have changed in the entertainment industry. Every actor and star acts like a big shot, always thinking they are superior to others.
Fu Zhuocheng, however, did not agree.
Acting is a profession, and it requires both attitude and ability.
Lin Yusheng was taken directly to the eighteenth floor by Fu Zhuocheng.
"Wei Qing, Yu Sheng would like to see President Lu."
Wei Qing naturally knew Lin Yusheng. He nodded slightly to her and said, "President Lu is in a meeting. Please come with me to the lounge to wait for a moment, Miss Lin."
"good."
Lin Yusheng was taken to the lounge, and Fu Zhuocheng left.
After waiting for about half an hour, Lin Yusheng finally saw Lu Zhengye.
The lounge was open-plan, and Lin Yusheng saw Lu Zhengye walking in the middle of a group of people, giving instructions in a methodical manner.
He was half a head taller than the people around him, and his striking features were unforgettable at first glance.
After he finished speaking, the people around him dispersed to do their own things.
At this moment, Wei Qing stepped forward and said something to him. He looked up and met Lin Yusheng's gaze.
Lin Yusheng suppressed the inappropriate thoughts in her mind and waved playfully at him.
Lu Zhengye said something expressionlessly, then went into his office.
Wei Qing walked over and said to Lin Yusheng, "President Lu would like to invite you in to talk."
"OK."
Lin Yusheng breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, she wasn't being kicked out directly.
Lin Yusheng knocked on the door of the president's office, and only after receiving a response did she push the door open and go in.
Lu Zhengye sat in his office chair, looking at her.
"President Lu." Lin Yusheng smiled innocently.
But Lu Zhengye felt there was a hint of cunning in her smile.
"What brings you here?" Lu Zhengye asked.
Lin Yusheng didn't rush to reveal her purpose; she simply asked, "May I sit down and talk?"
"Whatever you want."
As soon as Lin Yusheng sat down, Lu Zhengye glanced at his watch and said coldly, "You only have 20 minutes."
Lin Yusheng: "..."
"I'm here to discuss a business deal with Mr. Lu."
A playful smile appeared on Lu Zhengye's face. "Oh? Tell me about it."
