In reality, Tangning had simply given up on a script. But, Chen Feng and An Zihao had made a lot of sacrifices for the sake of 'Concubine Ning'. So, it was a shame for them to give up on the role. But, the two of them were clear about their bottom line.
Of course, none of them were as awkward as Tangning. Tangning desperately needed a piece of work to prove her worth. So, seeing Tangning give up on the female lead of 'Concubine Ning' so decisively, Bai Yu felt she was a complete idiot. In the industry, it was rare to find a good piece of work. Yet, Tangning had offended the crew of 'Concubine Ning' so thoroughly...
Everyone was anxious, especially the fans. But, no matter how anxious they were, without a good script, Tangning would not accept the role.
'Concubine Ning 'progressed quickly. As soon as Bai Yu joined the cast, she quickly released her official photos and began filming. She was obviously trying to show that even if Tangning regretted her decision, there was no place for her. In fact, during an interview, Bai Yu laughed and shared her thoughts on the script, "Everyone has their own definition of excellence. I think the screenwriter has done a good job. Honestly, everyone should respect the work of others. Even if we can't respect them, we shouldn't criticize them."
Bai Yu's words were extremely clever. On the surface, she praised the entire crew and writers, saying they were hardworking and serious. However, there were people that were too demanding and demanding of them. As for who these people were, needless to say, it was Tangning. She felt Tangning did not respect the results of other people's hard work!
"As for the so-called 'only good drama', I feel that as a confident actor, there is no need to be picky. As an actor, you should play whatever role you need. This is how an actor should behave."
Regardless, after Bai Yu's words were published in the newspapers, they seemed reasonable. But, in reality, the battle between her and Tangning had already begun.
She probably thought that Tangning was feeling uneasy at home.
In reality, Tangning did not take her seriously at all.
But, did she say anything?
Mo Ting looked through the many scripts Hai Rui had, but he did not find a good piece of work. As Tangning did not have any work and had not made an appearance to prove her worth, her fans did not have much confidence.
However, at this time, Hai Rui's CEO office suddenly received a phone call.
An author by the name of Tang Xiao told Mo Ting that she was willing to adapt her work, 'The Forensic Concubine', into an IP drama and invited Tangning to play the female lead.
She was a fan of Tangning, so she gave herself the pen name of 'Tang'. She told Mo Ting that it was because of Tangning's encouragement that she persevered in her writing that she was able to achieve what she had today. She felt it was time for her to repay her debt of gratitude.
Mo Ting immediately instructed Lu Che to investigate 'The Forensic Concubine'.
In the end, even Lu Che was shocked.
This was because this book was ranked number one on all major websites with over a billion views. Many film and television companies had offered large sums of money to purchase the film rights, but Tang Xiao had never been moved. She had always thought that one day, her idol would be able to act in this book, so she had always kept the film rights. She never expected that she would have such a good opportunity this time.
"President, the value of the intellectual property of 'The Forensic Concubine' is huge. Most importantly, the story itself is excellent. Every part of the story can stand up to scrutiny. I can tell that the author is very talented."
"Plus, Tang Xiao has already prepared the script herself, so there's no need for any adaptations. I've already looked into it and it's perfect."
Lu Che was excited. Who would reject a work like this?
Mo Ting received the script and flipped to the first page.
This story didn't have a flat and straightforward beginning. In Tang Xiao's works, every beginning was almost always very intense and eye-catching.
The first scene was the Emperor of the Fenglan Dynasty questioning the female lead. Why did it have to be his mother? It was because he liked his mother and adored her.
The female lead was only 3 years older than the Emperor. As she was a concubine of the previous Emperor, she was ordered to take care of the male lead. Although she was a transmigrator, she still abided by her duties as a concubine and kept a low profile.
After just two short scenes, Mo Ting closed the script.
He simply replied to Lu Che, "Shoot this IP drama at all costs."
Tangning only received the script after receiving it. At first glance, she fell in love with the setting. Putting aside the taboo of emotions, Tang Xiao used all the forensic knowledge and relevant plots in the script. Even the forensic doctors themselves had to admit Tang Xiao was too professional.
It didn't take long for Long Jie to hear about this and let out a gasp.
"Oh God, when I was bored, I even read this novel. Oh my god, I can't believe you're going to be the female lead. My Qing Lan, let me tell you, Tangning, this novel is amazing. You'll regret not reading it!"
Was this a pleasant surprise?
Tangning suddenly laughed.
Long Jie could guess how Tangning was feeling, so she quickly explained, "This is all because of the cause you've planted. Reality has proven that every path you've taken has been right. Oh my god, I'm really looking forward to it!"
Because of this, Tangning was truly grateful to the author called Tang Xiao. She even told Mo Ting to invite her over to their home. After all, they needed to interact with each other in order to get to know each other better.
Tang Xiao was also pleasantly surprised. Although she knew that if it wasn't for 'The Forensic Concubine', Tangning would never have met her, she was still extremely lucky to be able to interact with her idol.
As the script was good enough, Mo Ting immediately called for a board meeting and confirmed that Hai Rui would be investing in the project and that Chen Feng would be the director.
The board of directors unanimously agreed and allowed Mo Ting to do as he pleased.
With Hai Rui's strong support, the production was set up very quickly. In fact, as soon as Mo Ting sent Chen Feng the script, he immediately gave him a phone call to sign the contract. He was even more anxious than Mo Ting and the others.
It didn't take long before the production confirmed the key members of the cast and began to select the actors.
However, Tangning told Mo Ting that she needed to speak to the author first.
Tang Xiao was so talented, she definitely had a candidate in mind. So, she could listen to her opinion first.
So, Mo Ting quickly arranged for Tang Xiao to drop her off at Hyatt Regency and asked Lu Che to personally drive her to Tangning's home.
Before Tangning met Tang Xiao in person, she had always assumed that she was a man. But, as soon as she saw the beautiful young woman in front of her, she was shocked.
Who would've thought that Tang Xiao had such talent and explosive power.
"Oh God, Tangning, you're so beautiful …" Tang Xiao exclaimed as soon as she saw Tangning. "You're nowhere near as plump as everyone says."
