Chapter 347: Chapter 351: Entrance (1)

Even Yu Zexiao took a look at her. He knew that Jian Anning had not agreed to Leng Yunlin’s request last time, and she might not agree this time either. However, this was still an excellent opportunity.

Speaking of which, if Jian Anning agreed this time, he wouldn’t find it too hard to accept—after all, Director Li was also under the banner of Starlight Entertainment.

It was only Jian Anning herself who calmly said, "Director Li, thank you for your promotion, but I really worry that I might not be up to the task."

As soon as these words came out, the room fell silent!

This time, even Director Li was stunned. He hadn’t expected that, with so many people clamoring to beg him for a role, a mere assistant would refuse him!

Could it be that she truly had no interest in becoming famous, or was it that......

Director Li’s gaze involuntarily fell on Yu Zexiao standing beside her.

Director Li immediately looked at Yu Zexiao, "Zexiao, Anning is your assistant. You know that our filming schedule is very tight. If it wasn’t absolutely necessary, I wouldn’t bother Anning."

Yu Zexiao’s eyes flashed; he seemed to understand what Director Li meant—he wanted Yu Zexiao to persuade Jian Anning to take on the filming!

"Besides, if you don’t want to act in the film, I won’t force you. Look, the payment for this scene will be the same amount as Zhang Ying’s."

"Director!" The assistant director and several staff members exclaimed in shock!

What was Zhang Ying’s price? Eighty thousand per episode! And Jian Anning was just going to play one scene and get eighty thousand? This was the rate a second-tier actress could command in the industry!

"What’s the matter? I am the director and I say it’s okay. Could it be the producer will not agree?" The issue of expenses needed to go through the production staff and ultimately the producer’s approval. Eighty thousand per episode was no small sum! He also sincerely added, "I really think highly of you, you’re very spirited and possess the quality of enduring hardship. You don’t need to be afraid, just accept it."

This time, even Jiang Xuanqi, who had introduced her, was green with envy!

Director Li was known in the industry as a "smiling tiger." It wasn’t because he was sinister, but because he was very strict when filming! Even Yu Zexiao would be scolded by him if he didn’t perform well. And she, let alone. From the start of filming until now, there was hardly a scene she wasn’t chastised by Director Li!

And Jian Anning, who was just here to play a minor role and hadn’t even attended a day of film and television training classes, was receiving such praise?

Amidst the envious, jealous, and resentful gazes of everyone, Jian Anning nevertheless shook her head, "No need for the film or the payment."

Director Li frowned, feeling somewhat displeased. Jian Anning’s attitude was definitely imprudent!

However, Jian Anning then said, "Thank you for your confidence in me, I accept."

Director Li finally breathed a sigh of relief and laughed heartily, "Good, get ready, we’ll start right away!"

"Action!" the staff clapped the board, and the scene began.

Jian Anning was dressed in the attire of the second female lead—a tightly-fitted red dress that only reached just above the knees, a pair of black high heels, and her hair was temporarily styled into light curls. From behind, her resemblance to Zhang Ying was incredibly high, and moreover, she even appeared fairer and her figure even more stunning than Zhang Ying’s.
