Rebirth 1983: Building My Business Empire

Chapter 436 - 436 425

?Chapter 436: 425 Chapter 436: 425 Miss Zheng had already read the script and thought it was very good. Even though the director wasn’t very famous, she was prepared to give it a try. However, considering her status in the industry, that’s why she said she wouldn’t audition.

Now, in Hong Kong, the film industry is mostly male-driven, with the female actors often getting roles that are not substantial, some being mere fillers or adjusters. But this movie, “Legally Blonde,” is centered around the female lead, with even the second female lead having more scenes than the male lead.

After receiving a call from Tian Pengyu, who said that the boss had made it clear they would find someone else if she didn’t audition, she hesitated but eventually relented. The script was solid and had the potential to become a hit; missing out would be too regrettable.

On the day of the auditions, Lu Jiaxin had class and did not attend, leaving the task to Tian Pengyu and Director Qi. In the evening, Tian Pengyu came to report that Director Qi had decided on Miss Zheng for the female lead role, Lan Yinggu for the second female lead, with Miss Wang and Zhou Yunv also participating. As for the male lead, it was directly given to Liu Ren.

Tian Pengyu and Lu Jiaxin recommended someone named Yang Yichang for the role of the second male lead: “Yang Yichang is with our company, and he’s very passionate about acting, with excellent acting skills.”

When Lu Jiaxin heard that the candidate looked average, she rejected the idea without a second thought: “This is a contemporary drama; I need handsome men and beautiful women. The first male lead, Liu Sheng, is a suave and elegantly handsome gentleman, so the second male lead can’t fall too far behind.”

A cameo would be fine, as the audience wouldn’t pay much attention to a minor character’s appearance. But for an important supporting role, it’s a no-go; it would lower the visual standards of the cast.
