Chapter 289: Chapter 289 - Actor Question

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After making a few phone calls, Fang Mo’er had nothing else to do and felt extremely depressed.

At noon.

Director Tian Xin called Fang Mo’er and said that she could sign the contract at any time.

After confirming the director, Fang Mo’er heaved a sigh of relief and subconsciously rubbed the space between her eyebrows. Her forehead was extremely sore.

These few days, she had really been thinking too much and had been working too hard.

Today could be considered as some kind of vacation.

Fang Mo’er let out a sigh of relief.

Very quickly, the news of Tian Xin wanting to direct Hua Mulan spread on the Internet.

“I thought that this production team wouldn’t be able to hire a director. I didn’t expect that they would really hire one.”

“I’ll be frank with you. This director’s style is very suitable for this topic.”

“The director is a professional, and her previous works are not bad either. Who knows, she might be able to produce a good film after all.”

“Come on, don’t you know that this production team hasn’t managed to hire any good actors yet?”

“That’s true. Who would want to be an actor in a movie that is being made just for fun? If they have the time, isn’t it better to take on films with more exposure?”

Very quickly, Fang Mo’er received a call from Shen Yue.

“I can only arrange for a few smaller artistes from the company for you. However, I can’t arrange for any A-list celebrity. The company feels that this movie will lose money. If we want an artiste to act in this movie while they’re still popular, it will delay our efforts, so...”

Shen Yue was also helpless. The main reason was that Wu Ling was suppressing them.

Wu Ling had a lot of power in Star Dream Era. This company was waiting for Shi Yu to come back and inherit it in the future. After all, Wu Ling was Shi Yu’s mother.

Even Shi Mo did not want to interfere.

Fang Mo’er was stunned. “What about the other companies?”

She had not expected there to be so many complicated matters in the process of making a movie. There would also be a lot of trouble.

After settling the director and screenwriter matters, there were still many more issues waiting for her.

“It’s the same for the other companies. Sigh...” Shen Yue sighed. “A few of the artistes that we had our eyes on have all gone to the production of ‘Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai’.”

Fang Mo’er immediately sighed. “I understand. I’ll think of a way.”

Even though Shen Yue had contacts with good resources, Hua Mulan did not have a very good reputation. Any artiste who had even a little say over their careers did not want to act in Hua Mulan.

Even if they had time in their schedule, they would say that they had no time free at all.

Or they would hang up the moment they heard the name of Hua Mulan.

Fang Mo’er had tried to contact an artiste that she thought highly of. She felt that this person would definitely be a good choice to play the role of the general in Hua Mulan.

Previously, Fang Mo’er had been interested in an A-list actor, but he had joined Bai Rong’s production team instead.

Now, as for the role of the general, Fang Mo’er felt that Mu Bei was the only artist left who was the most suitable.

However, Mu Bei was an actor from Haotian Entertainment.

At the same time, Fang Mo’er was also interested in Lang Qi from her company. However, the company would not allow Lang Qi to take the role.

This was really a headache for Fang Mo’er.

Fang Mo’er browsed through the information and latest news of various celebrities on Weibo, hoping to find some people who were willing to join her production.

This was because, in the Hua Mulan movie, other than the female lead herself, most of the cast were male.

Hence, Fang Mo’er was only looking for male stars.

When Shi Mo returned, he saw Fang Mo’er sighing at the computer.

When he walked over to take a look, he thought that Fang Mo’er was worrying over the matter of the cast. Then, just as he was about to say that he would help her arrange for a few actors, he heard Fang Mo’er mumble, “This one has joined the army before. He’s very suitable to play the role of a general.”

“This newbie is not bad either. He can be used in a role to liven up the atmosphere.”

“Aiya, this person is a fitness expert. His muscles are also very well developed. If he shows off his fit muscles under the sun, the female audience will definitely fall for it.”

“Why are all the artistes so good? It’s so hard to choose.”

Shi Mo’s expression darkened as he looked at Fang Mo’er’s phone. He thought that Fang Mo’er was worried about something else. He had not expected her to be worried that there were too many male artistes and she did not know how to choose.

Immediately, Shi Mo’s voice turned cold. “Why are you so conflicted?”

Fang Mo’er subconsciously said, “Yes, everyone is pretty good. Look at their abs and their faces. It’s great...”

“Oh, then why don’t you ask them all to join the production?”

Only then did Fang Mo’er realize who she was talking to. She stood up in surprise and hugged Shi Mo. Then, she held onto Shi Mo’s hand coquettishly as she said, “Finally, you’re back. Quick, take a look.. I’m all better now. Can I go out now?”
