When the performance ended, she immediately got out of character. During the scene just now, she had portrayed the female policewoman’s heroic and valiant personality perfectly.

Especially when one saw the changes in her expression and the way she had handled it, one could not help but praise her.

She was definitely the most energetic actress he had ever seen.

He was sure that she had read the script thoroughly and understood the role of the female lead.

At that moment, she was no longer herself but the main character. A professional and energetic actress was a really rare sight in the entertainment circle.

“Thank you, Director Zhang.” Ling Sheng smiled sweetly.

Zhang Zongmin felt that she was really the character in the script, Tang Jinse, in the flesh. She looked harmless, but she could also be ruthless and cool. The contrast was adorable, and she could definitely charm a lot of people.

What a pity.

The casting decision was not in his hands.

However, he decided that he would fight for her. If it really did not work out, he would not direct this drama. He would get someone else to direct it!

After Ling Sheng left, Zhang Zongmin did not continue the audition. He got someone to get rid of the people waiting outside to audition and went to find Hua Ying’s CEO.

The script for “Secret” belonged to Hua Ying. He had been invited to direct the drama, but the decision-making authority was in the hands of Hua Ying’s CEO.

He had been short on money recently, so he had agreed to direct this drama. Besides, President Ma had told him that the male lead would be Gu Shen. He was very satisfied with this.

Gu Shen’s acting skills were recognized by the industry. As long as the female lead was not too bad, his acting skills would be showcased. She could not ruin the reputation he had built over the years.

However, once one experienced the vast sea, it was difficult to appreciate other water bodies. One couldn’t appreciate clouds anywhere other than on Mount Wu. Thus, he could have made do with any female lead before seeing Ling Sheng.

Upon seeing Ling Sheng, he had determined that she was the female lead. If it was not her, there was no point in filming this drama.

“Old Zhang, you’re here.” Upon seeing him enter, President Ma smiled and introduced him. “This is the female lead of ‘Secret’, Xi. This is Director Zhang.”

Song Xixi, who was applying nail polish, blew at her nails. She arrogantly scanned the newcomer with her eyes and greeted him as though she was distributing alms. “Hi, Director Zhang.”

This was the first time Zhang Zongmin had seen her. She was Hua Ying’s eldest daughter and the daughter of a major shareholder. However, he had not expected her to be so uneducated. He got straight to the point. “President Ma, I’m here to tell you something. If I direct this drama, I want Ling Sheng to be the female lead!”

Only

President Ma’s expression changed, and obvious displeasure flashed across his fat face. “Didn’t we agree that you would only care about filming and not about the rest?”

“Does Director Zhang have a problem with me?” When Song Xixi heard Ling Sheng’s name, her eyes turned cold and her nails dug into her flesh.

“Ms. Song, you’ve misunderstood. I just think Ling Sheng suits the role better.” Zhang Zongmin smiled and added, “Of course, Ms. Song’s acting skills are very good.”

He had the best reputation in the film industry, mainly because he had a mild temper and did not have many flaws. Therefore, many people were willing to work with him, and he would not offend them easily.

“If Director Zhang is unwilling to film this drama, there are many people waiting in line.” When President Ma saw that the lady was unhappy, his attitude changed.

Everyone knew that this lady was used to being arrogant and domineering. However, Director Song doted on her immensely and wanted to give her all the stars in the sky. Whoever offended her would not be able to survive in the company.

The secretary knocked on the door and said that Gu Shen had come to visit. Before she could finish speaking, Gu Shen had already pushed the door open and entered. He said coldly, “President Ma, if the female lead is Ling Sheng, I refuse to act in this drama.”
