Chapter 273 â Competition of Sugar Daddies not Acting Skills (12)
[Spy Change 1943]âs director was Liang Peng. He was a newbie director within the circle and didnât have any popularity. He was a loyal fan of the original novel, [Spy Change 1943]. Transforming his favorite novel into a show was Liang Pengâs dream. Originally, because he was young back then and didnât have enough experiences, though he found an investor willing to invest in this show, he encountered innumerable problems with movies and television companies.
Discouraged, Liang Peng ended up reading the newspaper to see Haihuang willing to throw away money recklessly. Then, he carefully read some information on Haihuang Entertainment before delivering his script to the company with some hope. What he didnât expect was that not only did the director of Haihuang to pass his script, the film empress Su Wan was also willing to participate within the acting.
Of course, Haihuang mentioned the condition of the investment and that was to pick from their companyâs actors first. Liang Pen naturally agreed happily. In his eyes, with the film empress Su Wan playing a leading role and him choosing a male lead with somewhat okay acting skills, and then finding two more experienced actors through his connections, itâd be set!
The day of the tryout for the show, Wu Tong drove the nanny van over early on to the place they decided on. Haihuang had already rented a streetscape for filming. The moment Su wan arrived, she had her specialized makeup artist bring her to her own room.
âSister Wan, people are saying that the male lead of this show will be Lin Mu. Do you think that President Tan can collaborate with President Huang?â
The makeup artist, Jiu Ye, was a really cheerful and happy lady. Plus, she was a brain dead fan and shipped Lin Mu and Su Wan.
Su Wan faintly smiled hearing Jiu Yeâs words. âIt depends on the company. President Tan will probably look for help but Iâm not sure who.â
In reality, with the original plot that Su Wan was familiar with, the original male and female lead of [Spy Change 1943] were newbies within the circle. Thankfully, their acting skills were passable. Plus, because of the foundation of the script, the two grew popular.
But since Su Wan became the female lead of this show, Haihuang obviously couldnât find an inconspicuous male actor to become the male lead, unlessâŠ
Theyâre a newbie within Haihuang and the company was trying to make their name known.
Thinking of this, Su Wan felt a headache. This was because she knew that the future Haihuang would indeed bring many celebrities on their pedestals. But the only one that could be addressed as a huge celebrity was Haihuangâs top celebrityâ Tan Yuchi.
Tan Yuchi was Tan Tianâs nephew. He naturally obtained the best resources within the company. Plus, Tan Yuchi had a handsome face. In a society where appearance was everything, he just needed to act cool in front of the TV and heâd garner many brain dead fans.
The male lead this time couldnât possibly be Tan Yuchi could it?
Su Wan changed her clothes into the tryout clothes. It was a blue-gray buttoned mandarin jacket. She took on the role of a female guerilla band who was ignorant about her culture but patriotic.
Glancing at the young lady with two braids and bright eyes in the mirror, Su Wan couldnât help but pout and then take a selfie. Then she sent it to Su Rui.
Iâm getting ready for the tryout. Do my braids look beautiful?
âSister Wan? Are you posting on Weibo? Iâm going to like your post.â
Jiu Ye only saw Su Wan taking a selfie and sending a post so she couldnât help but ask.
Uh.
Su Wan then took another beautiful selfie and posted it on her Weibo.
Su Wan: Trying out for a new show. Guess who Iâm acting.
Immediately, there were innumerable likes and forwards. Under the vast comments and likes, a certain third master Yeâs authentication account flickered by and no one else noticed itâŠ
After sending the post, Su Wan gave her phone to Wu Tong. Although theyâve already decided on the female lead to be her, she still needed to go for the tryouts and go through the process. By the time Su Wan came out of the room and arrived at the directorâs tryout area, it was noisy and chaotic outside.
âWhat happened?â
Wu Tong immediately called someone over and questioned.
They nodded at Su Wan before saying softly to Wu Tong, âThe director group chose the newbie celebrity, Meng Hao, as the male lead. However, the investors want Tan Yuchi to be the male lead. Director Liang refuses so theyâre still fighting right now.â
Hearing his words, Wu Tong shrugged his shoulders helplessly. In a cast, normally investors had more of a power. Of course, if you were a well-known director within China, people would give you face. Unfortunately, Liang Peng clearly didnât have the qualifications to challenge Haihuangâs people.
âSu Wan! Su Wan, youâve come in time!â
This time, the representative of Haihuang noticed Su Wan wearing the tryout outfit within the crowd with sharp eyes. They immediately called her and said, âSister Wan, youâre the female lead of this show. Tell us. Who do you think is a better male lead for you?â
Su Wan was speechless.
Theyâre going to give this hot potato to her?
Su Wan smiled and walked in front of everyone, glancing at Meng Hao and Tan Yuchi who were both wearing suit vests.
To speak the truth, the male lead within the novel, Yu Cheng, was unimpressive but had a meticulous mind, and was an agent.
Su Wan saw Meng Haoâs acting before. He was a newbie that had great prospects.
As for Tan YuchiâŠ
Su Wan couldnât really comment on this handsome adonis who was basically just a pretty face.
âThe two handsome guys both have a lot of potential. I naturally will just listen to the companyâs arrangements.â
Su Wan obviously couldnât help others when Haihuang had given her quite a bit of money.
Hearing Su Wanâs response, Haihuangâs representative smiled. She turned to look at Liang Peng, âDirector Liang, look. Su Wan also thinks that Tan Yuchi is more suitable. Of course, Meng Hao is good too. Isnât there a second male lead? Director Liang, since you approve of him, he can become the second male lead.â
Su Wanâs gaze flickered hearing the representative of Haihuangâs words. He immediately exclaimed loudly, âRight. Director Liang. The second male lead, Li Huan, is the key figure within this show. Plus, he is the most handsome. Itâs a pretty good option for Meng Hao to act as Li Huan.â
âAre you guys blind or something?â
Tan Yuchi was impatient of waiting and after hearing Su Wanâs words, he couldnât help but roll his eyes. âLet him be Li Huan and I as Yu Cheng? Do you think the audiences are blind? So annoying. Sigh. Let him be Yu Cheng and Iâll reluctantly act as Li Huan.â
Everyone was speechless.
They were arguing here all this time for no reason? Sister Wan was the best. She exclaimed the crucial point. Liang Pengâs eyes also brightened. âRight! Yuchi, you can act as Li Huan! Youâre the Li Huan Iâm looking for!â
Reserved adonis, Li Huan. This was basically made for the handsome Tan Yuchi who knew no acting skills! He didnât need to do anything but to act handsome!
The two leading roles and the second male lead were determined just like this. After the tryouts, Su Wan immediately went back to remove her makeup. Passing by the costumes area, she encountered Meng Hao. âSister Wan, thank you.â
Meng Hao thanked Su Wan in a very polite tone.
âI didnât really help you much. Do your best. Youâll end up becoming popular because of this show.â
âHopefully!â
Meng Hao and Su Wan exchanged greetings before they left with their assistants. By the time Su Wan returned to her room, she noticed that there was an extra person in the room. He was the newbie celebrity, Lin Mu!
âI just happened to be filming nearby so I decided to come and visit you. I didnât disturb you did I?â
Of course, Su Wan knew that he was filming nearby. She also knew that the movie he was acting in was going to be released soon. He didnât come to visit her. He came to promote himself.
Su Wan and Lin Mu used to be in the same company so they were put together to film several shows where they acted as couples. But in reality, the two barely knew each other.
Especially after Su Wan and Lu Jun broke up. She was being pursued by media and Lin Mu even went as far as to hint on his Weibo to his fans that he didnât really know her.
They werenât close to each other?
Then why are you here acting like you came to visit me? Doesnât your face hurt from the slap?
