Chapter 1094: Hidden Rules (4)
Su Wanwan didn’t expect such a great opportunity, it was like a huge pie fell on her head.
If she wanted to become an actress, she should be overjoyed by now. Unfortunately...
"President Qian, thank you for considering me, I’m truly honored! However, I currently have no plans to enter the film industry. Yesterday’s audition was just a fluke, I really liked that role, so I wanted to give it a try, but my aspirations don’t lie here," Su Wanwan said apologetically.
President Qian was a bit surprised; opportunities like this are not usually rejected in his understanding.
"Don’t rush. The leading female role in Director Zhang’s play is most likely yours," President Qian said, "After you finish this play, you can consider it, my offer always stands."
At this point, apart from gratitude, what else could Su Wanwan say?
She said goodbye to President Qian and then contacted Director Zhang. As a result, Director Zhang casually watched her perform a scene and nodded in approval.
"Come in a couple of days to sign the contract, and then just join the crew when it’s time."
Su Wanwan was taken aback: "Director Zhang, aren’t you going to say a few words about my performance just now?"
Director Zhang lifted his eyelids: "It doesn’t matter whether I say it or not, the investors have designated you as the female lead."
"What?" Su Wanwan was utterly shocked, "How is that possible?"
Director Zhang showed a hint of surprise: "Young girl, there’s no need to act in front of me. I’ve been in this industry for so many years, I’ve seen a lot. Having backing can be a good thing for you, it’s nothing to be ashamed of. I’m just a bit surprised."
He thought he had a good eye for discovering a raw talent, only to find out she’s rather influential, making his recognition irrelevant, inevitably leaving Director Zhang somewhat disheartened.
"Director Zhang, isn’t this play invested by ET?" Su Wanwan frowned, "The only person I know from ET is my friend, but she’s just an ordinary employee..."
"That’s right, ET holds half of the investment," Director Zhang glanced at her, "The other half of the investment comes from FIS. Although FIS doesn’t specialize in film, it always invests in films, and many popular dramas have its share."
Su Wanwan’s pupils slightly enlarged.
Seeing her expression, Director Zhang immediately understood: "Whether you’re acting or not, you’d better figure this out carefully; inadvertently owing favors might lead to unexpected consequences."
"Thank you, Director Zhang..." Su Wanwan nodded blankly, "Rest assured, no matter what, I’ll act well in this play."
Director Zhang then showed a slight smile: "Seems I didn’t misjudge. Go back now, wait for the crew to contact you."
Su Wanwan bid farewell and left.
She went upstairs to find Zhou Miaomiao. It’s Monday, Zhou Miaomiao had her own work to do and couldn’t accompany her all the time, agreeing to meet after the audition.
Zhou Miaomiao was always thinking of her, occasionally looking up, and she was the first to see Su Wanwan appear at the office door, immediately running out like the wind.
"Wanwan, how did it go, how did it go!" Her face was full of excitement, "Did it work out?"
Su Wanwan hesitantly said, "President Zhang said, the investors designated me as the female lead."
"Eh?"
"In this play, FIS has half the investment..."
Zhou Miaomiao’s eyes widened enormously!
"Mu Yuze?"
"Who else but him?" Su Wanwan chuckled bitterly, "What is he trying to do?"
"Why does it feel a bit like sponsoring..." Zhou Miaomiao murmured, "This pace..."
