Ming Dai was stunned.
That day at the cafe outside the school, Su Fangyun talked about her plan and mentioned that Director Gao lacked an actress for his new movie.
At that time, Ming Dai did not take it to heart. She felt that as a famous director, Director Gao would have access to top tier talent. She would be willing to even play a small supporting role in his movie.
However, she had never expected that Su Fangyun would arrange for her to be part of The Emperor of a Generation.
Shen Qinghe…
“Shen Qinghe? We just met him in the elevator!”
The lawyer lady at the side exclaimed!
No one noticed the complicated look in Ming Dai’s eyes.
Yes, the person they had just met in the elevator was Shen Qinghe—
The future famous Three Gold Movie King, the big shot of the entertainment industry, and Ming Dai’s ex-boyfriend from her previous life, Shen Qinghe.
Ming Dai was already surprised that she had bumped into Shen Qinghe so quickly after meeting Ning Xu.
Yet, Ming Dai coincidentally threw the woolen hat at him…
His attitude was gentle and humble. Who would have thought that his inner nature was the complete opposite of his appearance?
“He’s already here?”
Su Fangyun was a little surprised.
President Chen glanced at his watch.
“Yes, why didn’t Qinghe tell me that he had arrived early? Xiao Su, I’ll leave this to you. I’ll go over first.”
After his figure disappeared at the door, Su Fangyun smiled and explained.
“We have invested in ‘The Emperor of a Generation’. We have an appointment with Director Gao and Qinghe today. If you’re willing, Ming Dai, we can go over and meet them.”
Ming Dai hesitated. “I…”
Su Fangyun asked gently, “Is there a problem?”
Ming Dai shook her head. “I want to read the script first.”
“Of course you can.”
As Su Fangyun spoke, she handed over the script.
Although she said it was a script, it was actually an outline of the script. It was a few thin pages that could be read in ten minutes.
Ming Dai lowered her head and flipped through it. She looked serious, but no one knew what she was feeling.
She knew about “The Emperor of a Generation” and had watched it before.
This television drama described the life of an emperor. It described how a simple prince who stood aloof from worldly affairs started to fight for the throne. Then, he started the golden age of the dynasty and ruled over thousands of miles.
Director Gao Yi was an A-list director in the television industry. He was good at filming historical scenes.
Although the male lead, Shen Qinghe, did not become a god ten years later, he was still a popular A-lister.
With such a strong alliance, the final result was naturally a huge hit. Director Gao Yi added a classic masterpiece to his resume. Shen Qinghe stabilized his position as the number one star, and the supporting roles saw their careers take off. Ten years later, it was still talked about!
Ming Dai remembered that this was mainly a male show. There were only three young female characters with relatively long scenes:
One of them was the male lead’s empress. She was also a virtuous empress who had left a deep mark in history.
One of them was the male lead’s concubine, who had accompanied him through the most difficult years. Unfortunately, in the end, she was unrecognizable.
There was one more…
Seeing that Ming Dai had already flipped through the entire script outline, Su Fangyun introduced it at the right time.
“You’re going to play the male lead’s childhood sweetheart, the young princess. She has few scenes, but she’s very eye-catching. Moreover, it’s not difficult. You can act as yourself. Of course, the most important thing is that this drama will start filming next week. The actor who originally played the young princess has resigned.”
Ming Dai remembered this role.
Although the male lead of “The Emperor of a Generation” was mainly focused on the battle between the empress and the imperial concubine, the actress who played the role of Princess Bai Yueguang also attracted a lot of fans.
It would be a good start for her.
Except…
“What happened?”
Su Fangyun noticed her hesitation.
“Do you not like this script? It doesn’t matter. It depends on your opinion. We’re not in a hurry. We can wait for other opportunities.”
Unlike many tough managers, Su Fangyun had always respected the choice of artistes.
In her opinion, if it was not a scene that the artistes really wanted to film, forcing them would only result in a mess.
Just as she was about to withdraw the contract…
Ming Dai reached out and pressed it down.
“I want to shoot it!”
The moment she looked up, Su Fangyun thought that he saw a wild fire dancing in her eyes.
It was a spark that stubbornly refused to be extinguished in the cold winter. It was the flame of ambition that could burn the entire world!
Su Fangyun was a little stunned.
“… Okay.”
She took a while to react.
“Ah, right, do you want to meet the director? They’re downstairs.”
“I’d like that.”
Su Fangyun first called someone downstairs. After receiving confirmation she brought Ming Dai to visit the film and television department downstairs.
Along the way, they met many employees who were peeking at Ming Dai.
Su Fangyun knew that the news of her signing a newbie had spread. She was helpless and worried that Ming Dai would feel pressured.
However, when she turned around, she saw that Ming Dai did not look uneasy at all. She looked extremely calm, as if she was naturally used to being the center of attention.
Su Fangyun was extremely satisfied.
The two of them quickly arrived at the conference room. Through the glass wall, they could vaguely see more than ten people sitting inside.
Other than President Chen, who had just come down, there were also producers, screenwriters, directors, and so on.
Shen Qinghe, on the other hand, sat in the middle of these people. He lowered his eyes and did not say a word. He twirled the fountain pen in his hand and looked rather low-key.
However, he had already taken off his cap, revealing his excessively handsome face. He had a natural oriental charm and was elegant. He was gentle, humble, and these traits seemed to have penetrated deep into his bones. One could vaguely see the aura of a refined scholar.
That presence could not be erased at all. It was like a glowing object in the night, constantly attracting people’s attention!
The first person Ming Dai noticed when she stepped into the meeting room was him.
Shen Qinghe seemed to have sensed something and turned around.
Bam!
The fountain pen landed on the conference table with a crisp sound.
Director Gao Yi, who was sitting next to Shen Qing, looked at him curiously. Shen Qinghe shook her head and smiled.
“It’s okay.”
Shen Qinghe was a very good actor. Even Director Gao Yi could not see through his disguise.
No one knew that Shen Qinghe’s heart was hurting badly.
It was as if she was entangled by thin threads that were tightening and she was sinking bit by bit, making her unable to breathe and almost suffocate.
This feeling came and went suddenly. Shen Qinghe only frowned for a moment before returning to normal.
However, the pain was deeply engraved in her mind, like a warning from the depths of his soul.
Shen Qinghe looked at the two people who walked into the meeting room again.
She was very familiar with Su Fangyun and had dealt with him many times.
Immediately after that… he recognized her. It was the girl in the woolen hat in the elevator who avoided him like a ferocious beast.
Shen Qinghe looked at her with a sense of familiarity. His gaze subconsciously lingered on her face.
However, she did not even look at him. She was only focused on meeting and greeting the others.
She bowed obediently like a student.
She finally arrived in front of him. Her smile was distant and polite, no different from how she treated others.
“Hello, nice to meet you.”
Shen Qinghe smiled gently as usual.
However, her heart ached.
