Chapter 312: Chapter 312: Attending the Audition

"It’s alright, Second Brother, if we didn’t get the shoot, we didn’t get it, at least... we didn’t spend any money."

"That’s not what’s bothering me!"

"Then what is?"

Bo Tingshen’s bullying was too much, cutting off Xiao Yezi’s resources was one thing, but he even snatched the script Xiao Yezi had her eyes on. How is bullying a weak girl a show of strength? One day, he will make him pay for all of it!

"It’s nothing," Ye Shaowen said, stifling his frustration, "Xiao Yezi, see if there’s any other script you like, Second Brother will get it for you."

"No need," Ye Xian waved her hand off, "I’m not sure about the performance of other scripts, and buying them means having to fund the IP creation ourselves, I don’t want to take that risk."

"But you don’t have any schedules coming up, and I’m going to France for a business trip the day after tomorrow for a month, why don’t you come with me to relax?"

"Forget it, Brother, just focus on your work. You’ve already been delayed a lot lately because of me."

"But..."

"There’s no ’but,’ I’m an adult and can solve my own problems. Let’s head back, tonight I want to eat spicy crayfish!"

Ye Xian knew that Ye Shaowen was worried about her.

But the current predicament was hardly an obstacle for her. She had been in the entertainment industry for years, what setbacks hadn’t she faced? Did they think these minor issues could take her down?

Three days later, Starlight Entertainment’s official Weibo announced the adaptation of the ancient-style novel "Conquest of the World" into a drama, along with the production team and choice for the female lead.

Produced exclusively by Starlight Entertainment, with streaming across the whole network, the director was the newly crowned Golden Rice Crown winner Zeng Minghui, who had more than five major successful IPs under his belt, costume and makeup direction by top industry stylist Jia Chun, special effects by the currently popular time-traveling team Timeaxis, and the producer known as ’The Three Brothers’ in the film and television industry, with their strong financial backing and popular production team, it was jaw-dropping.

But the surprising choice for the female lead was a newcomer, Luo Yuwei.

In the entertainment circle, when a newbie suddenly gets hot resources, they usually get criticized, first because they lack a fanbase and are easily rejected, and second because it makes other stars jealous.

However, this time, not a single person in the Weibo comment section objected. Because Luo Yuwei looked so innocent and pitiful, her pure aura was like that of a Gardenia, inspiring more protection than harm.

[Wow! The female lead is a new face, and she’s so pretty!]

[Only Star Entertainment is so capricious to spend big money on promoting a newcomer]

[Looking forward to see what surprises the PlJJ will bring us, it’s good for the film circle to have some new faces]

[A Star Entertainment production, bound to be high quality, reserving a big break for Miss Luo Yuwei]

[The female lead is set, but what about the male lead?]

Ye Xian, like the commenters, wondered why only the female lead was announced and not the male lead. Were they planning to use Jiang Wanze as a bombshell surprise at the end? Was there no suspense in that?

With such a strong production team, who else would they save the spot for if not for their own favoured son?

Ye Xian scrolled casually down the long Weibo post and saw... a public audition call for other actors at Star Entertainment Building?

Including the male lead? Really? Such a great opportunity and Star Entertainment wasn’t just handing it to one of their own actors?

She stared at those few words for several minutes, ensuring that her eyes weren’t deceiving her, it was real!

If that was the case... then she could audition too!

Being part of a show produced by her own company, not auditioning would be a waste. Besides, with such a formidable production team behind "Conquest of the World," and sure-to-be stellar future performance, she absolutely couldn’t miss out on this opportunity!
