Chapter 1573: Chapter 1391: The Singer Immediately Came to My Mind

"Even if we say it’s not good, you would still insist on using her."

The three of them had a famous iron triangle relationship in the circle.

They were work partners, and also friends.

Having collaborated on multiple works and known each other for many years, they had some understanding of each other’s habits.

The director noncommittally shrugged his shoulders: "Is it so obvious that I’m partial to her?"

"It’s not that you’re being too obvious, but that the newcomer’s performance was just too good." The screenwriter thought about the performance they just watched and immediately arranged a role for Joanna Lawrence. "I think the role of the singer would suit her perfectly. She has stunning beauty, outstanding talent, pride and loneliness, and although she is a beautiful woman who can cause the downfall of a city, she ultimately meets a tragic end."

"Her performance just now made me think of the singer right away."

"The singer?" The director pondered for a moment.

This movie was a large-scale martial arts drama, and the singer was Female Lead 2, a tragic character in the story.

Even though the singer wasn’t Female Lead 1, she played an important role in the entire movie.

She had many scenes.

Moreover, compared to the well-bred lady character of Female Lead 1, the role of the singer had more potential for development and challenge.

If well-portrayed, it could lead to overnight fame.

If not well-executed, the impact on the entire TV series cannot be overlooked.

Originally, the director hadn’t considered giving such an important role to a newcomer.

Although the newcomer’s performance was indeed good, he thought she should be given a chance to stay.

However, this movie had a huge investment.

Under normal circumstances, newcomers were rarely used, and even if used, they were not allowed to play important roles.

The director was thinking that Joanna may just have a small role with a few minutes of screen time, such as the personal maid of Female Lead 1.

Who would have thought that the screenwriter would suggest giving Joanna the role of the singer?

The director knew how picky the screenwriter could be; since she wrote the script, she was even more cautious when selecting the actors.

If she was willing to give Female Lead 2 to the newcomer, it meant that she was genuinely satisfied with her.

The screenwriter had a major influence on the decision-making regarding the casting and character assignments.

The director didn’t voice his opinion after considering for a moment and instead asked the producer for his thoughts: "Logan, what do you think?"

"I have no objections." The producer raised his hands and chuckled, "I think the young girl is quite good too. She’s got both looks and acting skills. Apart from the lack of fame, she’s no worse than those established actors."

"You have used newcomers to play important roles before, don’t be afraid. I think this young girl will definitely bring us a lot of surprises."

Since the producer didn’t object, the director couldn’t object either.

After thinking it through, he nodded, "One of you invests money, the other provides the story. If you both don’t have any concerns, what do I have to worry about? Fine, let’s give her the role of the singer. I hope she performs well and doesn’t disappoint us."

With that, the decision was made.

Meanwhile...

Joanna Lawrence was convinced that she had failed the audition.

Once she had accepted this, she didn’t feel too upset.

However, Linda, who was worried that Joanna would be sad, tried to comfort her after they left the hotel: "Joanna, not being selected today doesn’t mean anything. It’s already great that you could attend an audition like this. It’s like getting a movie nomination; very few people win the award the first time they are nominated. But the nomination itself is a recognition, isn’t it?"
