Sweet Love 1V1: Spoiled by The Executive - Chapter 582

Chapter 582: Used to Going Back on Their Words

If Yi Tian’s acting skills were perfect and suited to the lead female role, then Guan Meiyi was just like the female lead herself. When the two actresses were compared side by side like this, it was clear who the victor was.

“Director Kong, the person I recommended isn’t bad, is she?” Ling Tianya asked quietly. “Is this kind of performance good enough?”

Director Kong’s expression became sluggish, but he couldn’t help but admit that Guan Meiyi had definitely improved.

Seeing that Director Kong had yet to speak, Ling Tianya also looked toward the director and the movie maker. “What do you two think?”

Neither of them replied. What could they say? Although Guan Meiyi was definitely good at acting, her popularity was very low. Who would watch a film with her as the lead? This was also something that Director Kong was worrying about. The reason they were making a film was to make money. If they used an actress people didn’t want to watch, then wouldn’t it be a waste of time?

“Screenwriter Ling, can we discuss this a little more?” Director Kong urged, “Although Guan Meiyi is an excellent actor, her popularity is way too low. How about we just use Yi Tian? She is the most suitable, whether it is a matter of acting skills or of popularity.”

“An artist’s popularity isn’t something I worry about. That is the job of Zhi Ya Entertainment. I only recommend the artists that I believe are suitable and right now, I believe that Guan Meiyi is the perfect candidate. Therefore, can we now execute my right of priority pick?” Ling Tianya was done speaking useless words and jumped straight to the point. “Director Kong, you were the one who said it. As long as Guan Meiyi’s performance was good enough, then she would be the female lead. Are you going back on your words?”

When Ling Tianya said this, Ruan Zeyan, who was behind her, languidly lifted his head and wrapped one arm around her. “It would seem that Zhi Ya Entertainment is used to going back on their words.”

Ruan Zeyan’s words scared Director Kong. If Ruan Zeyan wanted to control them, then he would easily be able to. In the past couple of years, Ruan Zeyan has amassed a lot of money from investing in the movie and film industry, so Director Kong didn’t dare offend him. All of the investors were influential, and Ruan Zeyan was the most influential of the lot.

Also, with regard to the contract, if Ling Tianya became serious, then Zhi Ya Entertainment would be facing the biggest loss.

After much discussion between Director Kong, the other director, and the producer, they finally decided that the female lead for Wonderland would be Guan Meiyi.

When word of their decision got out, there was uproar.

Yi Tian, who had set her heart on being the female lead, was unable to maintain her sweet and warm persona, and her face looked as if she had just eaten sh*t.

Shan Feifei was also shocked to the point of being speechless. Her position as the second female lead was still uncertain and yet, Guan Meiyi, whom she looked down on, had actually got the lead. Wasn’t that just a slap to her face?

Guan Meiyi was still in a state of shock, and she stood there, unsure of what expression to make. It wasn’t until someone came to congratulate her that she came back to reality.

She was really the lead! It wasn’t due to personal connections, or money, but because of her acting skills!

Guan Meiyi was so moved that tears began falling down her face. Ling Tianya stood up and walked toward her. “Congratulations to the female lead of Wonderland, Ms. Guan Meiyi.”

Guan Meiyi held Ling Tianya’s hand tightly, words of gratitude on the tip of her tongue. At first she was unable to speak. Finally, she said, “I will definitely give this role my all!”

Ling Tianya smiled. “I believe in you,” she said.
