Another Role

"Grandpa, that's not fair." Second Miss Qian looked at her grandfather indignantly. "That day, you were obviously more optimistic about Song Qianming's performance. Why didn't you choose him in the end?"

Elder Qian's head ached when he heard this question. He explained helplessly, "Xiao Er, when it comes to casting, performing well at the audition is not necessarily the best choice."

"Nonsense! You're just afraid that Song Qianming will steal the protagonist's limelight because he's too outstanding, right?"

"Since you already know, why bother asking?" elder Qian sighed.

"I didn't expect that the famous elder Qian would be threatened by capital," Second Miss Qian snorted.

"If this movie was directed by me, I might have signed Song Qianming as the lead. But the script and funds for this movie are all provided by the investors. Since they have already decided on the lead role, they will not agree to let grandpa choose a supporting role who is better than the lead in both looks and acting skills."

"Grandpa, with your current status, are you still threatened by them?" Second Miss Qian was dissatisfied and distressed.

"With grandpa's current status, there are naturally many scripts waiting for me to shoot, but this script is really good, and I doesn't want to miss it. The male lead they decided on isn't too bad either. Besides, this investor helped me when I was down and out, so I can't reject it. Xiao Er, there are some things you might not understand now, but you'll understand when you grow up."

"You only know how to use this excuse," Second Miss Qian mumbled, but did not pester him any further. She only sighed and said, "Then it's a pity for Song Qianming."

"It's indeed a pity, but it might not be a bad thing for him."

"What do you mean?"

"You have to know that in grandpa's movie, even the supporting roles are competed for by countless people in the industry. If the role that even a first or second-tier star couldn't get was snatched by a small star who just had a scandal, what do you think he would face in the future?"

"But unless you have a strong backing, people with the potential to become famous will still be targeted."

"However, it's different to become famous through a big production than through a small production. I promise you that if there are good resources in the future, I will give priority to Song Qianming. However, this movie is not possible. Help me reply to him. If he doesn't mind, I can introduce him to another role."

"What role?" Second Miss Qian asked curiously.

"Grandpa has a student whose previous two movies did not do well at the box office. This year, no one dared to invest in him, so he had no choice but to take on a historical drama. He said that besides the female lead, he couldn't find the male lead or the supporting role. With Song Qianming's qualifications, as long as he is willing to go, my student will be ecstatic."

Second Miss Qian mumbled. "He can't even find anyone to act. Now that there's a handsome man to save the day for him, how can he not be ecstatic?"

"Can't you speak in a better way?" Elder Qian knocked her forehead lightly. "Although the investment isn't big and the main actors haven't been found, my student will definitely take this movie seriously because he has no other way out. No one wants to act in it not because they look down on him, but because he has announced that he will spend most of the money on the production of this movie and won't pay too much for it."

"That sounds pretty good." Second Miss Qian nodded her head. There were very few good productions these days. Firstly, it was because some businesses wanted to use this industry to optimize and legalize some of their funds. Thus, they had never bothered to control the production quality. Instead, they only wanted the production time to be as short as possible.

Secondly, some of the bigger investors were afraid that they would not be able to recoup their costs, so they could only adopt the safest approach, which was to hire popular stars. In the end, most of the money would go to the main lead's salary after hiring them. Moreover, they had to agree to a series of requests of these popular main leads during the filming process. Would the final film be good?

Moreover, some of the directors and actors were really bad, which led to the terrible productions in the end.

"Although Xiao He has failed two movies in a row, he was brought up by grandpa. He's actually quite good. It's just that in the previous two movies, he was sabotaged by the lead actor, who claimed that he was bullying people during the filming process. As a result, he was boycotted by the netizens. The second movie had an unpopular theme, so no one dares to invest too much in him now. In order to restore his reputation, he will definitely put in the effort to produce this movie. You can tell Song Qianming not to worry," elder Qian explained.

"Alright, I'll let him know."

Song Qianming wasn't surprised that he didn't get the role, so he wasn't too disappointed when Second Miss Qian called him.

Second Miss Qian felt very regretful. "Grandpa said that if this movie was completely directed by him, he might make you the main lead directly, but no, Brother Song, I'm sorry that you've made a wasted trip."

"How can that be? To be able to receive such a high evaluation from elder Qian, it is definitely worth it," Song Qianming said with a smile.

Second Miss Qian quickly added, "But don't be sad. Grandpa said that we'll work together again if there's an opportunity in the future. He also introduced another role to you. Although it's not a big production, the director is grandpa's student, and his standard has been acknowledged by grandpa."

Song Qianming did not expect such a pleasant surprise. What right did he have to refuse? Furthermore, the character recommended by elder Qian would definitely not be too bad.

"As long as there's a chance to act, I'm willing to give it a try."

"Then I'll give them your contact number, Brother Song. They're in a hurry to begin filming, so they should contact you soon."

"Yes, I'll definitely grasp this opportunity well."

"Brother Song, you can do it. I have faith in you."

Song Qianming chuckled, "I'll have to trouble you then, Second Miss Qian." 

After hanging up the phone, Qian Anan still felt her ears burning. She knew that the other party had a child, but why was her heart beating so fast just by listening to his voice?

Sigh, if only he didn't have a child. If he didn't have a child, when Song Qianming became successful in the future, her family might even agree. But to let her be a stepmother? Not to mention the her unwillingness, her grandfather wouldn't be allow it in the first place.

It was better to put this little attraction aside. Anyway, there would be no result. If it was exposed, her grandfather might even interfere with Song Qianming's future. It would not be good if she ruined his future because of her own wishful thinking.

Song Qianming didn't expect to receive an audition invitation from Director He so soon. It just so happened that he was in Sea City for the past two days, so they had arranged to meet at night. Also, because the nanny he hired, Auntie Feng, happened to be busy at night, and she had asked for leave from him before, he had no choice but to take little Youhuan to the restaurant.

The moment they met, Director He decided on Song Qianming. Firstly, there was no need to worry about his acting skills. After all, he had been acknowledged by elder Qian. Secondly, his looks were too outstanding. Where else could he find such a cheap, handsome, and good actor?
