Chapter 226 Su Ranran
"No one can hurt me." Chu Xinglan smiled.
After all, she has so many bodyguards around her; if she is in any danger, they will come out immediately.
The bunny girl seemed to understand something, yet also seemed not to, but she didn't have time now, so she no longer cared about it.
"I can't go home right now; I need to get to my next job."
"It's so late, are you still going to work?"
"I have no choice. After my family went bankrupt, my parents are getting old and their health is failing. I can't not work. My family is burdened with so much debt. If the debt collectors come knocking on the door, they will definitely drive me crazy. So I earn whatever I can." The bunny girl said, glancing at Chu Xinglan with a bitter smile.
"I never expected that since I ran out of money, all my good friends have distanced themselves from me, but you, the person I used to bully, are still willing to talk to me. I'm leaving now."
The bunny girl then prepared to leave.
Chu Xinglan suddenly grabbed her arm and asked, "Would you like to act in a movie?"
"Filming?" The bunny girl was taken aback. "I never thought that this was my profession."
“I think there’s a role that would be perfect for me,” Chu Xinglan said confidently.
After all, she had personally witnessed her effortlessly switching between gentleness and aloofness, and the second female lead's character was precisely this kind of multifaceted and complex person.
"Don't joke with me, how could I possibly act?" The bunny girl waved her hand, not believing she had any talent for it at all.
"One hundred thousand yuan per episode, are you in or not?" Chu Xinglan didn't say much, just threw money at him.
"When? Where?" The bunny girl immediately changed her expression.
"Let's rest today and talk again tomorrow." Chu Xinglan deliberately kept everyone in suspense before leaving.
"Can we add each other on WeChat? Leave your contact information." The bunny girl wasn't about to let the lucky guy leave, so she immediately grabbed him and asked for his contact information.
Chu Xinglan had expected her to do this. How could someone who is sensitive to money let this opportunity to make money slip away?
She feigned indifference, took out her phone, and exchanged phone numbers and WeChat contacts with the bunny girl.
"Then I'll go back and prepare, and make sure I'm in top condition to film the movie."
The bunny girl walked away happily.
Chu Xinglan watched the bunny girl's departing figure and chuckled. Finally, she had found the second female lead.
However, although Chu Xinglan approved, Director Huang still wanted to investigate further.
"Is this the person you were talking about who's suitable for the second female lead?"
Director Huang looked at the young girl Chu Xinglan brought over again and again, his face full of doubt.
"Hello director, my name is Su Ranran. No matter what role you ask me to play, I can handle it with ease."
Su Ranran was full of confidence. For the sake of 10 yuan per episode, she was willing to go all out and was willing to make any boastful statement.
Director Huang remained silent for a long time, and did not say anything more.
"How about we let her try out the role first?" Chu Xinglan suggested.
"That's settled then!" Director Huang nodded. He was out of options now. If he couldn't find suitable actors, the show would be canceled. He had no choice but to try his best.
After a series of test shots, Director Huang finally acknowledged that Su Ranran had acting talent.
"We've found the right actors, but changing actors midway through the show is a big no-no. The previous one... Jasmine, her performance was so convincing, and we're worried it might affect the ratings this time."
After all, their show was being filmed and broadcast simultaneously, and suddenly changing an important actor would definitely cause a huge reaction.
“Then let’s change the plot.” Chu Xinglan pondered for a moment, then had an idea. “Didn’t we just film the second female lead’s true colors being exposed? Let’s change it so that after she escapes, she comes back with a different face to take revenge, and she becomes even more insane than before. Wouldn’t that change her character?”
"This is a good idea, but..." Director Huang glanced at Su Ranran, "Can she handle the crazy second female lead?"
"I can, I definitely can," Su Ranran quickly replied.
"She can definitely do it!" Chu Xinglan said with certainty.
"Since that's the case, I have nothing more to say. I hope this time the filming can be completed smoothly."
Director Huang shook his head. This was the most unfortunate film he had ever made, with the second female lead being replaced twice. This second female lead was even more difficult to deal with than the female lead.
Xiao Ze received a notification that filming had resumed, so he immediately rushed to the set.
"Didn't they say they couldn't find a second female lead? Why are they filming again?"
Xiao Ze asked the staff.
"I heard that Miss Ming found a suitable actress to play the second female lead, so filming began."
"I see." Xiao Ze nodded. Chu Xinglan and the director had been busy for several days for this second female lead role. The broadcast time was approaching, but they were short of the second female lead's scenes.
"The actress playing the second female lead is a young and beautiful girl, probably the same age as Miss Ming."
The staff member approached Xiao Ze mysteriously and said...
"Aren't all the actors in our crew very young?"
Xiao Ze disagreed.
"This is different. She's really pretty and sweet. You'll see for yourself."
The staff member pointed to the actor who was getting his makeup done.
Xiao Ze followed the other person's finger and was startled.
"Su Ranran?"
Su Ranran heard someone calling her name. She turned around and met Xiao Ze's gaze. She was also startled.
"Xiao Ze?!"
"No way, Miss Su, you actually chased me all the way here?"
Upon seeing Su Ranran, Xiao Ze couldn't help but say something irritatingly.
"I... I didn't know you were here. Besides, who said I came here to chase after you?"
Su Ranran felt somewhat hurt, but she stubbornly refused to show it.
She did like Xiao Ze before, and now... maybe she still likes him a little bit, but given her current family situation, she doesn't dare to have any more illusions. He didn't like her before, and he's even less likely to like her now. She has given up on this one-sided love.
"Whatever your purpose in coming here, I will never like you." Xiao Ze wanted her to give up and stop having any illusions about him.
“I know, so I’ve never thought about that. I just want to make good movies and get the money I deserve.”
Su Ranran said, not looking at Xiao Ze.
Xiao Ze was stunned. So the eldest daughter of the Su family was talking about money all the time? Wasn't she the kind of young lady who never cared about money? Because she lived a life where she didn't lack money.
Seeing that Su Ranran wasn't looking at him, Xiao Ze didn't want to stay there and cause any more trouble, so he turned around and went to find Chu Xinglan.
"Xinglan, why did you let Su Ranran come here to film? You two used to..."
Xiao Ze didn't quite understand.
Wasn't Su Ranran not very friendly to Chu Xinglan before? Why did she still drag her into filming?
“The past is the past, the present is the present. Besides, I think she’s quite suitable for the second female lead role.”
Chu Xinglan smiled.
