Chapter 381 - It is Because of Your Poor Acting Skills! And Your Lack of Talent! (1/2)
“Brother, is the <Yan Huasu> you are referring to the very same online novel that often ranks first online?” Nan Yan asked she her eyes brightened up immediately.
“How would I know if I do not have the habit of reading or chasing after online novels? What I know is that it would be a very big drama production and many female artistes are vying for this resource. However, it seems as though the original author and inventor of the <Yan Huasu> novel really likes Jiang Yuning very much. Therefore, he has personally delivered the script over to Guangying Media to allow for Jiang Yuning to consider taking on the role of the first female lead for the drama,” Nan Jin informed his sister at this time.
“Wow! I am so happy right now, Brother. I really like that novel. Do you know who the first male lead for the novel is? Has it been decided already?” Nan Yan continued questioning Nan Jin. She was not even interested in eating her breakfast anymore.
“Not yet. However, it would be a little difficult for the fans of the novel to accept the new love line between the new first male and female lead. This is because someone else has already bought the copyright for the game version of <Yan Huasu> and there is already an actor and actresses representing the first male and female lead in the novel. Fans of the novel are all in love with the couple and they might not be too accepting of Jiang Yuning. However, I would not worry too much about it because Jiang Yuning has a very high EQ.”
Nan Yan nodded her head after listening to her brother’s explanation. After a brief moment, she turned around before she asked her brother, “Then…Brother…can you try to get me a small role in the drama?”
At this time, Nan Jin could not help but stared at his sister in disbelief. “My sister? Why would my sister want to play a small and insignificant role in a drama?”
“Didn’t Jiang Yuning say that I should stop relying so much on you?”
“Alright then. I will get you the role so that you can go and prove yourself.”
Nan Jin would do it just so that this silly girl would stop saying that he was overprotective of her all the time.
“So, when are you going to apologize to Jiang Yuning?”
Nan Yan did not reply because still felt a little awkward and she did not know how to apologize to Jiang Yuning. She would just think about what to do when that time comes.
…
On the other hand, the original author of <Yan Huasu> followed an entertainment reporter to visit the cast at the filming location for <Nameless Orphan> a short while after Jiang Yuning returned to the filming set.
Since the scenes today involved filming under the heavy rain today, Jiang Yuning was exposed to the heavy rain for more than three hours. All the production crew and cast members could see that Jiang Yuning was already shivering from the cold.
Everyone in the crew knew that Jiang Yuning was afraid of the cold but they also knew that she was a very responsible and dedicated actress. She was very committed to her work and she would never delay or cause any problems to the people around her due to her own personal reasons.
Therefore, it wasn’t until Director Mong finally yelled ‘cut’ that the young paparazzo quickly hurried over to Jiang Yuning before placing a dry bath towel over Jiang Yuning who was completely drenched from head to toe.
Jiang Yuning wiped the water off her face and she towel dried her hair a little before she wrapped the towel around her body.
“Are you okay, Yuning?” Director Mong asked Jiang Yuning when he saw that her lips had already turned purple. He was very concerned as he knew that the filming conditions for the scene today were extremely harsh.
“I am fine,” Jiang Yuning replied as she shook her head.
“Sister Yuning, here, have a bowl of this ginger soup that I made for you,” one of the production crew members said as she handed a bowl of hot soup over to Jiang Yuning. “I have also added some of the herbs that you previously prescribed me for staying warm.”
“Thank you.” Jiang Yuning took the bowl of ginger soup and started drinking it and she finally felt warm and alive again.
“Why are you thanking me for? You are the reason why all of us are still so healthy despite the busy filming schedule!”
After she finished drinking the bowl of hot ginger soup, Jiang Yuning went into the dressing room to change into a set of clean and dry clothes. As soon as she was done changing into a clean outfit, the young paparazzo came in to inform her that there were two entertainment reporters who wanted to do a short interview with her. Jiang Yuning quickly packed her belongings before she stepped out of the dressing room in a hurry. At this time, Jiang Yuning saw two reporters waiting outside for her. However, Jiang Yuning felt that one of the reporters looked extremely familiar to her.
After thinking for a short while, Jiang Yuning suddenly realized her identity. “You…you are the famous author, Hou Da. You are Hou Da, right?”
The original author of the novel <Yan Huasu> was extremely surprised that Jiang Yuning could recognize her. She stuttered as she asked, “Have we met before?”
“Well…sometimes when I drop by the bookstore, I would see photographs of you advertising for your fan meet and signing events.”
Moreover, Hou Da was easily recognizable because of the black mole by the corner of her lips.
