Even though Guan Meiyi had received the script some time ago, she had been very busy with other things, she didn’t even study the script in detail. She definitely didn’t understand her character inside out either. She had asked her to do method acting from the get go and there was no way that Guan Meiyi could do it.
Guan Meiyi was stalling, even Zhang Heng was getting impatient. Time was money, and Guan Meiyi was clearly wasting time, “What’s the issue?”
Zhang Heng was the cream of the crop in the pool of local television drama directors, actors were just but a by-product of his industry. No matter how powerful or popular they were, they were all the same to him.
If it was another director in his place, Guan Meiyi might have some clout, but faced with Zhang Heng, even she had to stand down.
“Director, I’m not really in the zone, is it possible to do it later…?”
“Let’s start with the second female lead!” Before Guan Meiyi finished, Zhang Heng had already impatiently decided to let other people do their auditions.
Guan Meiyi awkwardly stood there until the first actor vying for the second female lead walked up. That was when she decided to walk back awkwardly.
“Meiyi, are you alright?” Li Fei asked in concern.
Meiyi nodded her head, but her face was ashen. She thought initially that that that day’s audition would just be a pro forma ceremony, and she would just run through the actions like all her previous dramas. She didn’t expect Zhang Heng to be such a serious person, and with Ling Tianya added to the mix…
Guan Meiyi raised her head to look at Ling Tianya. That woman was observing the actors that were currently auditioning, she was surprisingly professional.
“Meiyi, why do I feel that Ling Tianya is specifically targeting you?” Li Fei muttered quietly to Guan Meiyi.
Guan Meiyi bit her lip, no matter whether Ling Tianya was doing it on purpose or not, it was not important. The most important thing right then was to finish the audition without losing her reputation.
In the other meeting room, the Yuan Teng Corporation was having one of their planning meetings. Ruan Zeyan knit his brows as he leaned against his backrest, his thumb rubbing gently at his temple.
The members in the meeting didn’t even dare to breathe too harshly, they were careful with each and every single word that they were saying. They were observing Ruan Zeyan as they went, worried that they might step out of line and bring out the demon in him.
Those few days, his sleep quality had been horrible. His temper was just like an active volcano, erupting just as he liked. It was plenty troublesome for the people working for him.
Even though the CEO’s temper was as hard to grasp, making him unapproachable and cold, it was still rare for him to explode like he had done more often those days.
Du Gang was standing behind Ruan Zeyan, and he was also observing Ruan Zeyan carefully. Only Du Gang knew that it was since the meeting with Miss Ling that his mood took a nosedive…
Exactly who is this Miss Ling?
Ding-
Right then, a ping broke the silence in the meeting room.
Everyone’s nerves exploded, their eyes widened comically in fear as they looked at Ruan Zeyan, afraid that they had woken a sleeping lion.
Of course, Ruan Zeyan glowered. If looks could kill, they would have been dead fifty-times over by then.
“Who is it?! Who’s the idiot who doesn’t even turn their phone to the silent mode during a meeting?!” They all thought. Everyone surveyed the room, wanting to find this idiot as fast as they could.
At that moment, Du Gang weakly spoke up, “Boss…It’s Miss Guan’s manager, she said that Miss Guan’s auditioning in the XX Hotel. The screenwriter Ling Tianya seems to be picking on her…”
“Who’s picking on her?”
Du Gang was stunned momentarily, “Screenwriter Ling… Tianya…”
