Chapter 107 - The Second Female Lead

The famous Lu Shanhe was about to start filming a new movie, and everyone in the industry was eager to get involved.

There were endless speculations about the main lead in Lu Shanhe’s movie. Many people thought that the female lead in Lu Shanhe’s movie this time would definitely be Cao Yuezhi.

Cao Yuezhi was a young movie queen. She had outstanding beauty and excellent acting skills, and she was the best actress in the industry. Other than her, there were not many female celebrities who dared to think about being the female lead.

“Perhaps the script hasn’t been sent over yet,” said the assistant beside her with a smile. “Director Lu has always been like this. The speed at which he announces the lead role is very slow. The casting process is very strict.”

Cao Yuezhi felt very happy in her heart.

She had worked with Lu Shanhe twice. After working together, her career had been flourishing. After that, she took on a few major productions and found herself on top of the entertainment industry.

For Director Lu’s new movie, she was determined to get the female lead.

“The most important thing to be an actress is to hone your acting skills, not to fight for the female lead.” Her agent, Lisa, shook her head slightly in her heart. She was the agent personally assigned to Cao Yuezhi by Song Entertainment. Over the years, she had helped Cao Yuezhi step by step to become the best actress.

In Lisa’s opinion, Cao Yuezhi was impeccable in all aspects, but she placed too much importance on the role. She basically only acted as the female lead and refused to accept any script with the role of the second female lead.

“Sister Lisa, my popularity and acting skills are here. It’s no problem for me to fight for the female lead.” Cao Yuezhi admired the beautiful manicure she had just done and was full of ambition.

She had been in the entertainment industry for five years and basically looked down on everyone. No actress was her opponent.

The only b*tch who could be considered a match for her had retired five years ago.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the celebrity lounge. Another assistant ran in happily. “Sister Lisa, Sister Yuezhi, Director Lu Shanhe has sent an audition invitation and a script demo.”

Cao Yuezhi’s face was filled with joy!

As expected, the script was here. It seemed that Lu Shanhe still wanted her to try out the female lead!

“Quick, let me see the script.”Cao Yuezhi could not hide her joy. She took the script and flipped through it. The next second, her beautiful face suddenly changed.

Cao Yuezhi confirmed it again in disbelief. She frowned. “The second female lead’s script? Did he take the wrong one? Shouldn’t he have given me the female lead’s script?”

Lisa’s face darkened slightly. She took the script and flipped through it. The assistant beside her quickly said, “I-I’ll go and confirm it right now.”

The assistant made a call to inquire about the situation. Soon, the assistant said with a troubled expression, “Director Lu’s staff said that they’re inviting Miss Yuezhi to audition for the second female lead role… they’ve already confirmed the female lead.”

“Female lead? Who’s the chosen one?” Cao Yuezhi was slightly annoyed. In the entire movie industry, other than those senior actresses, who else could have a higher position than her?

The assistant shook his head. “They didn’t reveal the choice of the female lead.”

Cao Yuechi snorted lightly and leaned heavily against her chair. The second female lead script that Lu Shanhe had sent over only had a small part of the audition plot and didn’t reveal any more information about the female lead.

Cao Yuechi thought to herself that perhaps the female lead’s character was an old lady in her fifties or sixties, and Lu Shanhe had chosen one of the senior actresses as the female lead, which was why he didn’t give Cao Yuechi the audition for the female lead.

With that thought, the knot in her heart dissipated.

“Lu Shanhe’s movie, even if it’s a second female lead, there’s still a lot of room for development.” Her agent, Lisa, pushed her thin-rimmed glasses up. Her temperament was steady and capable. “Yuezhi, practice the script well. Go to the audition tomorrow.”

Cao Yuezhi gladly accepted.

The casting for Lu Shanhe’s new movie was in full swing.

Lu Shanhe’s studio had to conduct high-intensity auditions every day. In a small studio, first, second, and even eighteenth-tier actors could be seen everywhere.
