Rebirth: I Became Mr.President's Beloved-Chapter 134: What Is Your Relationship with Bai Yan?

Zhang Hansheng looked at Tang Li again and asked, "I heard you are studying at the Art College across from Capital Movie Academy, and you are a student in the acting department. But since you are only in your second year, you haven’t taken any professional courses yet?"

"Right." Tang Li nodded.

Her answer was brief, without any additional boasting or embellishing about herself.

Tang Li knew such a response was not very diplomatic.

Gao Wenlan brought her here to meet the producer and director of the film adaptation of "Original Sin," which was essentially a disguised audition. If her answers satisfied them, the role of Ying Xuaner could very likely become hers.

The recommendation from Director Ruan Jiang and familiarity with the original author were additional advantages for her.

Yet, Tang Li didn’t want to rely on exaggeration to secure this role.

Boasting about her acting skills now would only lead to her being unmasked when standing in front of the camera. Rather than embarrassing herself in front of hundreds of people on the set later, it was better to be honest now.

She truly was a newcomer with no film or television credits to her name.

Gao Wenlan couldn’t help hinting, "Won’t you introduce yourself a bit more?"

"You probably don’t want to hear about my personal hobbies," Tang Li honestly replied.

"..." Gao Wenlan was left speechless, then turned to Zhang Hansheng, "Last time she came to my house, she spoke just like this. I almost suffocated; she’s nothing like the charming young girls of today."

As the head of a film company, Zhang Hansheng surely knew how to read between the lines. He immediately laughed and said, "Isn’t Ying Xuaner in the novel exactly like that? Not smooth, not worldly, like a swan that has strayed from the flock, always doing more than she says. If Ying Xuaner were like other girls, the character would lose her unique charm."

Gao Wenlan’s brow relaxed, clearly in a better mood.

Fan Xin also said, "Newcomers have their advantages. Their acting isn’t constrained by too many rules, and as for little issues during filming, every actor goes through that. They can learn on set when the time comes."

Is this their way of indicating they’ve chosen her?

Tang Li instinctively turned to look at Gao Wenlan beside her.

"What are you looking at me for?" Gao Wenlan frowned slightly annoyed, "Since President Zhang and Director Fan appreciate you and gave you this opportunity, shouldn’t you be thanking them instead of staring at me? We aren’t even close."

Tang Li: "..."

Until Zhang Hansheng asked her to come to the company the next morning to discuss the contract, Tang Li was still somewhat in shock. Since her rebirth, due to Lai Yuaner, she had considered becoming an actress, but more often she thought about finding an ordinary job. She didn’t expect to stumble into the entertainment industry like this.

Leaving the coffee shop, Tang Li didn’t get far before a sedan stopped beside her.

Gao Wenlan was sitting in the car.

Gao Wenlan opened the rear car door, signaling Tang Li to get in.

Just as Tang Li closed the car door, Gao Wenlan started speaking leisurely, "Feeling happy now?"

"Did you come to the Capital specifically for me?"

Tang Li asked.

Gao Wenlan glanced at her and immediately denied it, "Of course not, I was here for a meeting in the Capital. It just so happens that President Zhang called me, mentioning that the actress playing Ying Xuaner was injured unexpectedly, and Director Fan was considering a newcomer. I had no idea it would be you."

"Regardless, I still want to say thank you."

Seeing the faint smile on Tang Li’s lips, Gao Wenlan pursed her lips reservedly, "You should thank me. Without my speaking up, they wouldn’t have confirmed you so quickly."

As she said this, something came to her mind, and she asked Tang Li, "What is your relationship with Bai Yan?" fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
