Chapter 329: Chapter 329: This Role is Tailor-Made for Her!
Looking further down, it was all about Jiang Li trending again.
What revealed the truth about Jiang Li’s cliff fall, the Jiang Family’s secrets, Jiang Li sharing wilderness survival skills, and so on.
Thinking back to the recent mistreatment at Director Zhang’s house, Su Yinwan irritably threw her phone onto the sofa.
Xiao Xueyi was organizing some contract documents when she saw this and casually asked, "What’s wrong?"
"It’s nothing." Su Yinwan furrowed her brows and then changed the subject, "I’m just worried about that audition."
"Is it Director Zhang’s movie?" Xiao Xueyi said, "Don’t worry, although there’s a lot of competition for the role, you have a major advantage, not to mention Director Zhang has a good impression of you."
"Really? But it’s been so many days, and he hasn’t had someone contact us yet."
She always felt uneasy.
There had been too many changes lately, and she was completely overwhelmed.
She felt that this matter wouldn’t go so smoothly.
"Try calling again," Su Yinwan suggested, massaging her temples.
"Okay."
Xiao Xueyi put down what she was holding and took out her phone, quickly finding Zhang Cheng’s contact.
Fortunately, the call went through immediately, and Zhang Cheng’s voice resonated from the receiver.
"Hello, who is this?"
"Hey, Director Zhang, it’s me, Xiao Xueyi." Xiao Xueyi said, "Hope I’m not disturbing you?"
"It’s you, no, what’s up?"
Xiao Xueyi, cradling the phone, said, "Well, we wanted to ask about the audition schedule for Zhao Qi’s role in ’Night Walk.’ Our Xiao Su hasn’t received any notice yet; is the directorial team very busy recently?"
"That..." Director Zhang began, "I have been quite busy recently, and about that role..."
He fell into a thoughtful silence.
Because for that role, he already had his ideal candidate in mind.
It was Jiang Li.
The moment he saw her, he immediately thought of the role.
Jiang Li was simply the destined Zhao Qi!
As the male lead’s first love and a kingdom’s Princess, Zhao Qi had both the gentle beauty of a woman and a vigorous vitality.
Although Su Yinwan was undoubtedly talented, she lacked that touch of vitality.
Jiang Li, on the other hand, got it just right.
She was gentle and intelligent yet unpretentiously graceful, exuding a deep-rooted strength from within.
More importantly, her physical skills were impressive!
He had seen her subdue a thug in a video online; it was blood-pumping and heroic.
Wasn’t she the very incarnation of Zhao Qi, who was groomed as a Prince from a young age?
He had intended to ask Jiang Li in person, but she had already clearly stated she didn’t plan to enter the entertainment industry, so he dismissed that thought.
However, as various people continuously sent in their portfolios soliciting the role, none seemed satisfactory, none seemed as suitable as Jiang Li.
As a result, he couldn’t resist and sent her an email.
Yet Jiang Li had not replied to him until now. He thought if Jiang Li truly wasn’t willing, having Su Yinwan play the role might be acceptable too.
"Well..." Zhang Cheng cleared his throat, just about to instruct Xiao Xueyi to keep some time free in the next two days for Su Yinwan’s makeup test, when a message pop-up appeared on his computer screen.
—[You’ve received a reply from "Jiang Li".]
Zhang Cheng sat up straight, eagerly opening the email.
Inside, there was a lengthy passage written expansively; it first addressed her understanding of the role, then her views, and finally her stance. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
".....I feel that the role of Zhao Qi is somewhat my ideal, so I agree to act, both on a personal level and as a friend."
Zhang Cheng exclaimed joyfully.
Indeed, choosing Jiang Li for Zhao Qi was the right decision! Look at the format of the reply, the penmanship, the depth of thought, flawless in every aspect!
Xiao Xueyi was waiting for Director Zhang’s response on the other end of the phone when she suddenly heard him exclaim excitedly, so she asked in confusion,
"Director Zhang, Director Zhang? What’s the matter?"
Director Zhang hastily cleared his throat.
"Xiao, I might have to apologize to you, Zhao Qi’s role already has someone cast, and they have already agreed to play it, so you should consider other options."
"What?!" Xueyi exclaimed, then realizing her outburst, she quickly apologized, "Sorry, Director Zhang, I got a bit carried away. May I ask who it is?"
Director Zhang frowned.
Originally, he felt embarrassed enough just inviting Jiang Li for a film role, how could he now voluntarily disclose her personal information?
Wouldn’t that make him offensive?
"You all can just follow our official Weibo for that," Director Zhang said coldly, "Don’t ask more."
He then unceremoniously hung up the phone.
Xiao Xueyi stood there, dumbfounded.
How did this role get cast so suddenly?
Without any hints being leaked?
Noticing Xiao Xueyi’s expression for a moment, Su Yinwan knew something must have gone wrong.
"What happened?"
Xiao Xueyi’s expression was somewhat stiff, "Well... Wenwen, in my eyes you’re definitely the best. No one in the industry has better potential than you, this doesn’t represent anything."
Su Yinwan became anxious, "Sister Xueyi, please just tell me, what happened?"
"Well... Director Zhang said that the role... already has someone cast..."
"What?!" Su Yinwan’s expression visibly grew fierce.
However, before she could react further, an irksome alert resounded from the Divine Sense system.
"Warning, Host, please maintain your character!"
So annoying!
Su Yinwan cursed the system in her mind, then forced a smile.
"Then Sister Xueyi, who got the role?"
Xiao Xueyi shook her head helplessly, "I don’t know, Director Zhang wouldn’t spill, and there’s nothing on the web either."
Xiao Xueyi might have been at a loss, but Su Yinwan wasn’t.
She immediately used Divine Sense to communicate with the system, "Quick, help me find out who got this slot."
The system replied coldly: "Sorry, Host, your points are almost depleted. Please be mindful of your capacity."
Su Yinwan grew even more furious, "This role is a key plot point, and you’re telling me you can’t check?"
"If Host insists on forcing the inquiry, I can assist you."
"Quick, no more nonsense."
"It’s Jiang Li."
Su Yinwan was shocked.
It was Jiang Li?!
She let out a derisive laugh belatedly.
Of course! She knew her visit to Director Zhang’s house that day wasn’t for nothing!
And she said she wouldn’t enter the entertainment industry?
Hah, backpedaling so soon!
The more Su Yinwan thought about it, the angrier she got, finally, she could only run to the restroom to vent.
Just as she pressed the toilet flush, whispering sounds came from outside—
"Sister Chuchu, your skin is so nice, how do you maintain it?"
"I’ve put a lot of effort into my skin, let me tell you but don’t tell anyone else."
"My goodness, Sister Chuchu, you went through all this for Director Zhang’s role?"
