Jingchen Entertainment Headquarters, 33rd floor.

Gu Yichen went to work early. After drinking a cup of coffee, he made a phone call.

"Hey?"

He frowned, tapped the table with his fingers, and said, "Help me track someone... Lu Siheng, take pictures regularly, okay."

After hanging up the phone, he pressed his eyebrows and called his assistant in.

"How's things going with Director Li?" he asked briefly.

Director Li, whose full name is Li Zongping, is a leading figure in the Chinese film industry and a director that countless actors are vying to work with.

Gu Yichen got the news that Li Zongping had a movie coming up and was recruiting actors.

This is undoubtedly a good opportunity for Shushu.

So he asked his assistant to send Xia Shu's audition video to Li Zongping to see if Xia Shu could play the leading female role.

"They said it would take about a week for the results to come out."

Gu Yichen said calmly, "I understand."

The assistant leaves.

Gu Yichen lowered his chin, closed his eyes tightly for a while and then opened them again. Lin Qingran's face inexplicably appeared in his mind.

He scratched his hair irritably.

Lin Qingran is already a married woman, what is there for him to remember?

-

Lin Qingran sat at her desk, staring at a video playing on her tablet without blinking.

On her beautiful wrist, she wore a watch with a black strap and a rose gold case. The clock on it pointed to 9:10 in the morning.

The video shows a fantasy drama from many years ago.

It is also Xia Shu's earliest work.

Xia Shu played the leading female role in the drama. After becoming an instant hit through the drama, Xia Shu rose step by step from then on, reaching the pinnacle of her acting career and becoming an international superstar.

Lin Qingran narrowed her eyes slightly and moved the progress bar back to the beginning of this episode.

It's a very difficult fight scene.

Everyone says that Xia Shu is a dedicated actor. No matter how difficult the role is, she will study it repeatedly and thoroughly, striving to present the best results to the audience.

The classic fighting scenes in this drama are highly praised.

Lin Qingran pulled the camera back to look again and again, and as she looked, her brows gradually furrowed.

Shen Yan at the side was puzzled, "Boss Lin..."

"Did you figure out anything?" Lin Qingran asked.

Shen Yan shook his head truthfully, "No."

Lin Qingran stuffed the tablet into his hands and said, "More than 80% of the fighting scenes in this drama used stand-ins."

Shen Yan: “?”

How can this be seen?

While Shen Yan was puzzled, Lin Qingran had already changed the subject, "Did you find the seedlings I asked you to look for?"

She had given the order a long time ago, and the company was in urgent need of a good work.

Shen Yan quickly handed over a stack of information in his hand, "I found some potential stocks, take a look."

Lin Qingran took the information and flipped through it one by one.

Finally, she put all the information aside without leaving any, "I already have the right person."

Shen Yan was puzzled, "Who is it?"

"Xu Xinzhu."

Xu Xinzhu looks 70% like Xia Shu.

One is an international superstar, and the other is an 18th-tier actor who is rarely known.

it's fine.

Xu Xinzhu is fully capable of becoming the second Xia Shu.

-

Lin Qingran got Xu Xinzhu's contact information that day.

She was browsing Xu Xinzhu's Weibo and at the same time dialed the other party's number.

"Ms. Xu." She said, "I'm Lin Qingran."

Xu Xinzhu was resting in the crew's lounge, with makeup on her face that didn't match her facial features at all.

In this drama, she still plays an inconspicuous supporting female role.

She didn't know Lin Qingran.

"Ms. Lin, excuse me, why are you calling me?"

Lin Qingran didn't like beating around the bush. "I'm the general manager of Ranyi Films. I called you to ask if you would consider terminating your contract with your original agency and coming to me?"

Xu Xinzhu was slightly stunned.

In fact, she didn't know Ran Yi, let alone what kind of company it was.

She was just an 18th-tier actress, and earning a living had already exhausted all her energy. She had no intention of paying attention to many things in this circle, nor did she have the need to pay attention to them for the time being.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Lin, I don't have any intention of changing agencies right now."

The agency she is currently signed with is a small company called "Dynasty Media". Although it is normal for this company to exploit its artists and its resources are not very good, this is already her best choice.

More importantly, when she joined Dynasty Media, she had nowhere else to turn and signed a contract with a penalty of 50 million yuan.

She will never make that much money in her lifetime.

"I can send you the information about our company. You can take a look and then make a decision." Lin Qingran advised.

Someone was calling Xu Xinzhu, with a contemptuous and impatient tone, "Xu Xinzhu, what are you still standing there for! Change your clothes and come over here quickly!"

"I'm sorry, Miss Lin, I have something else to do. I won't consider what you said for now."

She said about to hang up the phone.

"Xu Xinzhu." Lin Qingran spoke faster than her, "If you had more powerful connections than Xia Shu four years ago, you would be the world-renowned superstar now, not her."

Xu Xinzhu was stunned.

She held the phone tightly, her voice trembling slightly, "How do you know..."

"Xu Xinzhu, you are not a professional actor, but you have a better appearance and better acting skills than Xia Shu. What happened in the past is in the past, but you can seize the present."

Xu Xinzhu was stunned. She pursed her lips tightly and a hint of pain appeared in her eyes when she thought of what happened four years ago.

"Xu Xinzhu, now, are you willing to consider what I said?"

"..."

"Ms. Lin, I want to see you in person."

"..."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Qingran looked at Shen Yan beside her and said, "Go and prepare a contract with Xu Xinzhu, and draft it according to the S-level benefits."

From Shen Yan's expression, Lin Qingran could see his surprise and confusion.

So far, Ran Yi has not signed a single artist with the highest S-level benefits.

Xu Xinzhu was the first one.
