Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

When Feng Huai told Zhao Fei about what Ran Xueyi said to him, Zhao Fei didn't speak for a while and looked blankly at a distance.

Ran Xueyi's decision to take any role, even if it was just an extra, was definitely not part of her plans. As her manager, Zhao Fei planned to get every good resource that she could give to Ran Xueyi. However, if it was Ran Xueyi's wish to do this despite knowing that she needed to act in bigger roles in the future, Zhao Fei could only sacrifice her plans and let Ran Xueyi do as she wished.

"Alright, tell her that I'll do my best to get her a role she could be proud of." Zhao Fei also replied and promised. Though she did not completely consent to Ran Xueyi's decision, she could still get at least a role befitting of her skills.

Zhao Fei also did not waste any time after hanging up the call. She directly went to the Casting Director of Red Light TV station and asked him if there were any available roles for her artist.

The Casting Director, who was called Hao Chun, recognized who was Zhao Fei and was very polite when he spoke to her. "Currently, the first and second main characters are already chosen by the directors and producers. As for one of the second main leads, there is one available. But I doubt that the director would give it away so easily."

The movie that they were planning to shoot this time has a heavy theme and topic. It also carried a risk of being persecuted by the public since it was a movie based on a true story. Not to mention that the government was looking very closely at this movie, and the people who were used to base the characters of the movie will definitely try to get involved during the official shooting.

Thus, the difficulty of the filming was raised very high that the directors were already sweating and having nightmares in the dead of night.

Zhao Fei heard him and knew the gravity of the situation, and frowned. If this was the case then, even if she wanted Ran Xueyi to play in the movie, the risks of losing a lot more than what they should gain were definitely something she didn't want to happen in her career.

But the question was not about whether she wanted it to happen or not. The real question was whether she could convince Ran Xueyi to back out of her plan to act in the movie.

Knowing Ran Xueyi, Zhao Fei could already tell that she wouldn't give up no matter what she said to her.

She said to Casting Director Hao: "It doesn't matter if it's not the first or second main leads. If there are still some roles that I can get for my artist, then I will surely take this as a favour from you."

Hao Chun was surprised at her words. Getting a favor from Zhao Fei was very tempting. Who didn't know that Zhao Fei produced a few Acting Kings and Queens? She also produced the Nation's Treasure, the Legendary Singer, Rongle. If anything, she could be a five gold rate star agent and being able to be acquainted and work with her was tantamount to being able to cast the artists that were under her to one of their shows, right?

But still, Hao Chun knew that he couldn't do this. Red Light TV doesn't bend to any favors or money that was sent to them. As the Casting Director, Hao Chun also didn't want to do what others did and decided to refuse Zhao Fei's favor.

"I'm really sorry, Senior Zhao. However, as you know, my hands are already tied, and I can't force to add any artist without the director or producer's knowledge." Though he said this, Hao Chun still added and was willing to help, "How about this, give me the resume of your artist, and I will let the director and producer look at it later? Maybe they can look at it and see if this artist is suitable to play one of the roles?"

Zhao Fei saw him already doing his best and also didn't force him. She sent an electronic copy of Ran Xueyi's resume, which included her past works and current works and achievements.

After receiving the artist's resume, Hao Chun bid farewell to her and went back to the conference room with the others. The director and producer of the movie were already inside and discussing some stuff inside the room.

Hao Chun tipped toe with the others and had just sat down in his chair when Director Sun directed his attention to him and asked, "Where have you been?"

Casting Director Hao didn't lie to him and said, "An agent came to ask me if there's any available role in the movie. I told them what I already said to other agents."

Since there were a lot of people who wanted to join the cast of the movie, numerous agents had already flocked to ask him. Casting Director Hao already foresaw this and already prepared a few words to tell them.

"I see..." Director Sun smiled, already expecting this answer, but he still was curious and asked, "Who is it this time? Did they offer to give a few millions of additional pocket money to the crew? Or did they threaten that if you don't give them what they want, they will use black material to ruin the movie?"

Producer Ding laughed helplessly when he heard the director and also said, "Director Sun, are you collecting grudges now?"

Ever since the rumor that they were planning to look for and choose actors and actresses to play in their movie, several companies, agents, and even investors came looking for them to test the waters. At first, they would politely inquire and ask if their artists could get into the movie, but when they were rejected and given an automatic response from the crew, these people ended up throwing up some money or threatening the crew.

Director Sun scoffed, and his eyes flashed dangerously, "It's all thanks to their hard work. If they didn't come to my house and threaten my daughter, I wouldn't be collecting grudges! They ever dared to involve my daughter in this!"

"They're really shameless and unafraid of the law," Producer Ding commented before turning his head to glance at Hao Chun. "If someone comes looking for you again, tell them we're done picking actors and actresses for the movie. There's no need for you to come out and meet them anymore."

"Alright, I'll do that..." After saying this, Hao Chun hesitated. He wasn't sure if he should tell them who came to find him earlier.

"What is it?" Producer Ding was very sensitive at the moment and noticed the casting director struggling for a few seconds while sitting in his chair as if he had eaten something he couldn't completely swallow.

"Earlier, Zhao Fei came looking for me, asking the same thing just like others. However, I couldn't refuse her immediately since she's my senior sister from the academy and accepted the resume of one of her artists." Finally, Hao Chun told them what had transpired outside. "Anyway, I just accepted it but didn't give her a definite answer. It's still Director Sun and Producer Ding's decision whether to pick her artist as one of the actors."

Director Sun and Producer Ding looked at each other before the latter said, "Alright, we'll at least give you some face and look at the resume of Senior Zhao's artist. In any case, your Senior's judgment in this should be good."
