The Long-awaited Mr Han

Wu Mosen felt Lu Xiuse had the acting skills.

Nowadays, good actors had their own characteristics.

As long as they had the chops, no role was off-limits to anyone.

However, to Wu Mosen, Lu Xiuse's charisma was not ethereal enough for the character Yan Jiayin no matter how good she was.

And she was slighter older than the required age.

Many actors also had clashing schedules.

Even Wu Mosen could not gather all of his preferred actors.

Similarly, many wanted to get in but couldn't.

As it was, some earth cracked in droughts, others flooded from rain.

Lu Xiuse's acting actually passed his standards.

Hence, Wu Mosen gave her the role of the dancer Ying Ying.

Lu Xiuse was unlucky though.

She had just gotten the role but hadn't signed all the relevant contracts yet when the scandal about her being an escort got exposed.

Though her scandal would have long been forgotten after the movie got made, passed appraisal, and got scheduled screentime, Wu Mosen didn't want such uncertainty to affect his movie's word-of-mouth and popularity.

There were plenty of actors anyway. It didn't have to be Lu Xiuse.

Hence, Wu Mosen replaced this actor in a snap.

Because of her time as an escort at Trubo, she lost a precious chance.

How could she not harbor hatred?

And now, Yan Zhiqing got chosen for Wu Mosen's film.

Not only that, but she was even the female lead.

They were all filming in the same place. Yan Zhiqing was with her big production.

While she only got to do a rom-com.

Both movies could even have the same showtimes.

The attention garnered by both was destined to be different.

Lu Xiuse smiled and said, "That really is a coincidence. Since I'm here, let me say a quick hello to your production crew. It might seem impolite if I knew others were here but I did not go and greet them."

Lu Xiuse paused, smiling at Yan Zhiqing. "You don't mind, do you?"

"Of course not," Yan Zhiqing replied good-naturedly. "You came at just the right time. Director Wu is here too."

Lu Xiuse got a shock for real.

She never expected Yan Zhiqing to raise this up.

Was Yan Zhiqing so big-hearted?

What Lu Xiuse failed to understand was that Yan Zhiqing had thought it through. Her movie "Left Right" was filming nearby, and so was Lu Xiuse's movie.

The two were in close proximity, so Lu Xiuse would have known about it sooner or later.

No one could stop her from approaching Wu Mosen.

And really, why stop her?

Putting the current chance aside, could she really stop Lu Xiuse if there were more chances in other places?

Yan Zhiqing didn't think that stopping Lu Xiuse from seeing Wu Mosen would prevent her from filming Wu Mosen's movie.

Similarly, she felt that Lu Xiuse wouldn't get any benefits even if she approached Wu Mosen.

Given Wu Mosen's status, there were countless people trying to approach and gain benefits from him.

Whether it was starring in his movies or making use of his connections to gain other offers, Wu Mosen had seen more than his fair share of such instances, and not everyone succeeded.

No matter how hard Lu Xiuse tried, it's all up to Wu Mosen's decision.

If Lu Xiuse had the ability to convince Wu Mosen, would the role of the dancer Ying Ying have gone to another?
