Chapter 162: Female Lead
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Yu Su’s studio quickly got on track. Many newbies and artistes who had their contracts expired and did not want to stay in their old company sent in their resumes.
Recently, Yu Su had been buried in a pile of resumes. In order to find a suitable artiste as soon as possible, she would only leave the studio late at night.
“CEO Yu, take a look at this.” After Anya’s matter was resolved, Lan Yue returned to Yu Su’s side to continue his work.
Yu Su took the resume from him and her gaze landed on the photo pasted on the resume. “What’s the relationship between this person and Yu Miao?”
The facial features of the person in the photo were 50% similar to Yu Miao’s, especially her nose. It was simply carved from the same mold.
“When I saw her yesterday, I already got someone to do a background test. This girl’s name is Chen Ling and she has nothing to do with Yu Miao.” Lan Yue shook her head.
Yu Su raised her eyebrows imperceptibly. “Your bonus this month will be doubled.”
Yu Su knew Yu Miao well. If Chen Ling was really related to her by blood, she would never allow Chen Ling to appear in front of others.
However, after comparing Yu Miao’s bare face photo, Yu Su could tell that she must be related to this Chen Ling.
Yu Su smiled and instructed Lan Yue, “Inform Chen Ling to come for the interview at eight tomorrow morning. I’ll interview her personally.”
After the studio became famous, Yu Su was only in charge of looking for actors and artistes. She handed the interview to the male artiste, Zhao Duo, who had nothing to do at the moment.
Although Lan Yue was surprised, he did not say anything. She nodded and went to contact Chen Ling for the interview.
After receiving the interview notice, Chen Ling was so excited that she could not sleep the entire night. The next day, she went to the studio early to wait for the interview.
When Yu Su rushed to the studio, she heard that Chen Ling had arrived an hour earlier. Her impression of Chen Ling immediately improved a lot.
In the small conference room, Yu Su’s red lips parted slightly. “Chen Ling, a graduate of the Capital Arts Academy’s acting major. She likes to volunteer at the Animal Protection Association when she’s free.”
Chen Ling was still nervously recalling her self-introduction when Yu Su suddenly spoke. She was so frightened that she shouted reflexively, “Yes!”
Yu Su was amused by her expression. She handed her a script and pointed at one of the paragraphs. “I’ll give you ten minutes.”
Chen Ling looked at the script and was so excited that she could not speak. She nodded vigorously and calmed herself down before immersing herself in the script.
The script that Yu Su gave Chen Ling was a Chinese fantasy themed television drama. This drama had long signed Ye Chang as the male lead, and Yu Miao had been fighting for the female lead of this drama.
After Yu Hong’s management, the production team had already agreed to sign a contract with Yu Miao after she finished filming the reality show. However, the previous incident had happened. In order to ensure the ratings of this drama, the production team had gone back on their word and was now looking for a new female lead.
In her previous life, this drama had become popular after it was broadcasted. The main leads had gained a large number of fans because of this, and Yu Miao had even been promoted to an A-list celebrity because of this drama.
This time, Yu Su insisted on letting Yu Miao miss the role she had been thinking about day and night. She wanted her to have a good taste of not getting what she wanted.
Moreover… Yu Su looked at Chen Ling, who was reading the script seriously. She would definitely be a big surprise to Yu Miao. Yu Su had already expected Yu Miao’s shocked expression when she saw this face.
Ten minutes passed quickly.
Yu Su asked Chen Ling to perform a scene when the female lead and male lead in the drama broke up.
In just ten minutes, Chen Ling also performed very well. Her acting skills were not inferior to some veteran actors.
Yu Su was very satisfied with her performance and immediately called the producer of the drama. Through the video conference function, the producer and the director watched Chen Ling’s performance at the same time.
The producer and director decided on the spot to let Chen Ling play the female lead.
After closing the video, Chen Ling was extremely excited. She stammered, “CEO Yu, can 1 really act as the female lead? Also, have you really decided to sign me?”
Yu Su smiled and nodded. “That’s right. If there are no other questions, let’s discuss the signing of the contract.”
The conditions Yu Su offered far exceeded that of other entertainment companies.
Chen Ling knew that it was very difficult for a student like her who had just graduated and did not have any work to be able to meet such a generous boss. Naturally, she nodded happily and agreed to whatever Yu Su said..
