Li Shiyao became famous because of an idol drama. What else does she have? I can't let a newcomer like her surpass me. So, I want to give it a try. "
Lu Yao crossed his arms and said arrogantly to the director.
The investor did not follow them, but he was on the phone. He said, "It's just adding some scenes. I've read the script. Both storylines are good. What's wrong with giving it to Lu Yao?"
The director quickly said, "No, Li Shiyao's scenes are the focus of this story."
This movie was about a pair of sisters who entered different industries and eventually became successful.
Lu Yao's character was more naive and sweet. She had a good love story and reached the top with love.
But Li Shiyao's story was more difficult.
A rich man took a fancy to her and could help her reach the top. But the condition was that she had to resign after marriage and go home to have a child.
Li Shiyao rejected him immediately. Then, she encountered many difficulties at work. In the end, she did not have a good life as Lu Yao's character.
The two of them were born in the same family and received the same education since young. But in the end, they chose two completely different paths and walked different lives.
That was the main point of the story. It was thought-provoking.
Actually, the two of them had similar plots. When Lu Yao went up, he encountered many difficulties and temptations.
But Li Shiyao's character was closer to the public's life.
Especially at the end of the movie, Lu Yao walked on the red carpet in a glamorous manner. Although Li Shiyao had reached the level of a manager and was much stronger than ordinary people, there was still a gap between her and Lu Yao.
At that time, Li Shiyao would be given a close-up of her eyes.
Through a complicated look, she would show her inner thoughts at that moment.
Following the rules and pursuing their dreams was what many people dreamed of. But how many people could really succeed? And how many people chose to give up on the road to pursuing their dreams?
Confusion, puzzlement, and the deep thoughts he had accumulated along the way up to this point were all displayed.
This was the last scene in the movie script.
Li Shiyao was the public's character. Lu Yao's success was a minority.
This artistic movie was really sublimated with this last scene. It promoted the idea that everyone was the main character in their own life.
So, even though Li Shiyao's plot was similar to Lu Yao's, Li Shiyao was completely different.
If Lu Yao were to become the main character, then the flavor and meaning of the story would completely change!
The investor was still saying, "Then let's just let Lu Yao fail. That way, she will become the main character. If we give her a bad scene in the end, won't she become the main character?"
Director: …
In that case, the core of the scenario had changed.
He said, "Mr. Liu, that … that won't do."
"Then let's swap Lu Yao and Li Shiyao's roles. Why are you so troublesome? "
The director couldn't offend the investor directly. After all, if the investor withdrew his investment, the whole crew would be in trouble. He could only say vaguely, "The roles can't be changed. The two of them have different appearances. I'll think about it."
The investor thought that he had compromised, and Lu Yao was very happy.
After hanging up the phone, the director looked at Lu Yao. "Do you want to pack up for today's scenes?"
Lu Yao lowered his head and played with his fingers. "I'm so tired today. I'm not feeling well. I'll go back to the hotel to rest."
With that, he walked away.
Director: …
All the scenes that the crew had to shoot today were her scenes. How could she just leave like that?
The director was speechless.
However, he quickly picked up his phone and called Ning Meng to ask her what they should do.
The script was given by Lemon Entertainment, and Li Shiyao was one of them. Of course, Ning Meng had to make the decision.
Upon hearing this, Ning Meng replied with two words, "No."
Director: "What if the investor withdraws his investment?"
Ning Meng sneered. "Then, withdraw the investment. I'll invest however much money you need."
The director paused for a while and then sighed. "This is not just about the investment. It's very likely that Lu Yao will not act anymore. If she leaves, where are we going to find her?"
Famous celebrities with acting skills would have their schedules full. It was impossible to find someone at the last minute.
Ning Meng sighed. "Let's talk to Lu Yao first. Have a good talk with Lu Yao. If she agrees to a second time, I can introduce one of the company's TV series to her. "
The director nodded. "Okay."
After hanging up the phone, the director called Lu Yao and told him about Ning Meng's idea.
Lu Yao heard this and immediately said, "Forget it. I'm not feeling well. I can't act for a few days."
Director: …
It seemed that Lu Yao was really not going to act!
The director was a man with a strong background like Lemon Entertainment. After hanging up the phone, he started to contact the other female celebrities.
Just as he expected, the other female celebrities either did not have a schedule or were asking for a high salary.
If the salary was suitable, he would have agreed. However, the other party was too much. They were asking for ten times more than Li Shiyao. He could not tolerate this.
The entire crew was in a panic. Without the second female lead, how could they continue filming?
When this matter reached Li Shiyao's ears, it was already the third day.
How could they solve this situation? Also, did they have a monthly ticket?
