Chapter 1355 - You Actually Play Such An Important Role

On Yu Minmin’s side, they actually just started preparing for the TV series. As it involved mostly newcomers, the preparations were a lot slower than on Lin Che’s side.

The newcomers joined the group one after another.

They were not particularly familiar with the other actors in the show.

After all, they were newcomers and did not have sufficient network to know more. For more mature artists, their managers would have already helped gather all the necessary information so they would not be bewildered on set.

Those who arrived gathered together.

“Hey, hello. What are you acting as?”

“I’m playing He Shuai. What about you?”

“Oh, I’m going to be Ou Yang.”

“Really? I’ve seen your parts. I think we will have rival scenes.”

Some were harmonious like this while others naturally were not.

Some of them looked at the male lead who was walking over.

It was a youth drama, so the male lead was also very young. He had acted in two TV series. The response was lukewarm and exposure was not that high, but there was room for growth.

“Look, that’s our male lead.” Someone was extremely displeased.

“Hey, I just don’t understand how he can be the male lead. Didn’t he play some minor role previously?”

“Don’t you know? I heard that he’s a boy toy and a rich woman is helping him in the background.”

Wang Fangfang overheard the conversation and could not help but to look over.

She just started learning at a drama school and had yet to graduate. Network? She had none of it. Compared to Su Wan, who already acted in one show, this was her first. Thus, she practically never came across anything in the circle. Hearing all these people’s conversations was very refreshing to her.

She was listening so intently that she did not see where she was going. She bumped into someone.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Oh my, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to. You...”

She looked up to see...

Su Wan.

Wang Fangfang was surprised. “Hey, what are you doing here?”

From her previously anxious mood, Wang Fangfang immediately changed her expression upon seeing Su Wan. “Su Wan, no way. Didn’t you fail the auditions? What are you doing here? All those who are here are part of the crew. Hey, don’t tell me you’re here to see if there are any roles left? You’re going to shamelessly ask for one?”

Su Wan was already a little late and had not yet gone to report to the crew. She looked at Wang Fangfang and did not intend to talk much. “I’m busy. Can you step aside?”

Wang Fangfang asked, “Hey, what is this attitude? What do you have? When it comes to roles, it’s based on one’s own skills. It’s not about being shameless and asking for one.”

Wang Fangfang felt victorious as she looked at Su Wan contemptuously.

Su Wan could not be bothered to explain further. She only said, “Suit yourself. I’m leaving.”

“You...”

Just then, someone exclaimed, “Hey, have you guys heard? There will be a superstar making a cameo in this show. An extreme superstar!”

Wang Fangfang was immediately drawn by the gossip. She forgot about Su Wan and quickly went to hear more about this extreme superstar.

Meanwhile, Su Wan slipped away and went in.

“Director, I’m Su Wan.”

“Yes, very good. I have high hopes for you with this role. You’d better work hard.”

“Yes, Director. I’m truly appreciative of this opportunity.”

Although it was not the female lead, this was Su Wan’s first time getting such a role.

“Yes, do your best. You’re lucky this time. We have a superstar supporting us. This show is definitely going to be a hit.”

Also curious about what she heard outside, Su Wan asked, “Director, who is coming to support us?”

“Gu Jingyu.”

Su Wan’s throat tightened.

When she went out, her head was dizzy and spinning.

Gu Jingyu was going to be a supporting guest star.

But why?

She thought that perhaps it was just a coincidence. Gu Jingyu and Lin Che were good friends. It was plausible that he would help with Lin Che’s company’s shows.

But there were some things that still made her feel uneasy.

His coming here must have had nothing to do with her. It must have been...

Just then, Wang Fangfang spotted her again. “Hey, Su Wan, why are you still here? Did... Did you just come from the director’s room? Hey, aren’t you shameless to find the director.”

Wang Fangfang looked at her expression and thought that she had failed again. She laughed mockingly. “What’s wrong? Looking at your face, were you rejected? I told you, but you wouldn’t listen. Now you know. Isn’t it embarrassing?”

Su Wan slowly reacted. She looked at Wang Fangfang but before she could say anything, someone behind said, “You must be Su Wan. Hey, I heard that we’re going to play best friends so I came over to check out how my best friend looks.”

Wang Fangfang turned around and froze.

That was the sweet-looking female lead.

Jian Yao. She was a newcomer recently promoted by Lin Che’s studio.

What did she just say?

Did she just say that Su Wan was going to play her best friend?

The female lead’s best friend...

Wang Fangfang was dumbfounded. Her eyes were wide and alarmed.

“Y-you...”

Su Wan glanced at Wang Fangfang and could not be bothered with her. She only faced Jian Yao and said, “Hello, nice to meet you. It’s my first time acting such an important role. Please guide me if I am not doing a good job.”

“Not at all, not at all. It’s also my first time being the female lead, actually. We are all first-timers. We’ll learn and grow together.”

The two of them chatted and totally neglected Wang Fangfang at the side.

Su Wan said sincerely, “You’ve been signed by Lin Che’s studio, so you must definitely be capable. I heard that they are very strict about the people they sign on. You getting in already proves your abilities.”

Jian Yao smiled sweetly. She then noticed Wang Fangfang, who was still standing there stunned. “Hey, hello. You are...?”

Wang Fangfang then came to her senses. The female lead was talking to her.

“Ah... O-oh, hello. I’m playing Su Yan.”

Jian Yao paused. Su Yan...

“Is that... part of our cast?”

Of course it was!

But she was just an extra, acting as a student in another class. Her total screen time was estimated to be not more than a few minutes.

Naturally, Jian Yao would not be able to remember every single role. This TV series had many roles like this. Youth dramas really needed too many roles.

“Well... I have no recollection. Sorry.”

Wang Fangfang’s expression darkened. She looked on at Su Wan in disbelief.

What on earth? She was actually going to play the female lead’s best friend...

Just then, someone exclaimed from behind, “Gu Jingyu. Oh my God. No way...”

Su Wan’s expression changed.

“Jian Yao, I forgot to talk to the director about something. I’ll go look him up first...”

“Oh, go ahead. I’m heading out to take a look.” Jian Yao looked out excitedly. Gu Jingyu was here and she did not want to talk any more. She only wanted to go meet Gu Jingyu.
