Chapter 656: Important
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
For a big director like Gao Fan, if he was dissatisfied with an actor, it was not impossible for him to strongly request for a change of actor before filming. Although this might not happen to Lu Zhen, there was no harm in leaving a good impression on the big director.
The next day, the driver arranged by Jiang Kai stopped the car. Lu Zhen got out of the car and looked around. Soon, she saw an old man wearing a retro black top hat. With the end of the Golden Age of Newport Films, the leaders of Newport Films entered their twilight years.
Lu Zhen’s expression turned serious as she walked towards Gao Fan.
“Hello, Director Gao Fan. I’m Lu Zhen,” Lu Zhen said politely and respectfully. Gao Fan nodded and shook Lu Zhen’s hand. “Then let’s go up first.”
The attendant led the two of them into the VIP room. The temperature in the room was suitable. Lu Zhen took off her coat. After the two of them sat down, Lu Zhen handed the menu to Gao Fan.
Gao Fan took the menu. When Gao Fan ordered, Lu Zhen smiled and said, “1 heard that your ancestral home is Hua City. You even speak Hua City’s language. I believe you know Hua City’s cuisine very well.”
Gao Fan ordered a few dishes and handed the menu to Lu Zhen. “I’ve been in
Newport for decades, but if anyone asks me about my hometown, I’ll say it’s Hua City.”
The wrinkles on the old man’s face were loose. Although there was no deep smile, the atmosphere in the private room was harmonious. After ordering, the two of them chatted for a while before the topic shifted to the script of the television drama, “Rain and Fog.”
Lu Zhen expressed that she was very honored to play Manni. Hearing Lu Zhen’s words, Gao Fan revealed a faint smile. “If you choose the role of Lin Fen, I’ll feel a little regretful.”
The “Lin Fen” that Gao Fan mentioned was one of the four female leads in “Rain and Fog”. She had many scenes with the male lead. The two of them were evenly matched in the business world and had a soul-stirring “business and psychology” tug-of-war.
The two of them had a spark of affection during this process, but because of their indescribable past, they had no choice but to suppress this budding emotion. With just a rough analysis of the script, it could be seen that Lin Fen was a character with many highlights, and she had a lot of scenes.
