After my divorce, I started to have good luck Chapter 729 - 395: Distinctions Between Close and Distant Re

From the start to nearing the end of this al, everyone was enjoying themselves, and no one talked about work matters.

Now that Hao Xiaolian has finally brought up business, Chen Feng, though ntally prepared, found it a bit hard to respond imdiately.

If this was yesterday, Chen Feng might have agreed to her. After all, Yang Ziyin’s popularity speaks for itself. Having her in a TV series can be seen as a certain guarantee of viewership. Simply put, she is very well-liked by the audience and has high national recognition. Everyone loves watching the dramas she stars in.

Her willingness to take on the lead role for a fee of 20 million is truly a friendly price. At that ti, rely publicizing it as a 50 million fee wouldn’t be an issue.

However, today he has already promised Zhang Yuxi. In terms of friendships and relationships, he is definitely closer to Zhang Yuxi.

Moreover, he is soone who values his promises. Since he has agreed to help Zhang Yuxi secure the female lead, he will not go back on his word.

"Sister Ying, are you really willing to star at a lower fee?"

Before Chen Feng could speak, Wu ngting, with a face full of surprise, looked towards Yang Ziyin.

"Of course." Yang Ziyin nodded with a smile, "I really like the drama ’Green Jade Case’. Although I’ve only read part of the script, I’m already captivated. My intuition tells that this is the role I want. I’m also confident I can portray Young Lady excellently."

Upon hearing this, Wu ngting was even more delighted, nodding with a smile, "That’s great. I actually really want you to be the lead in this drama. As the screenwriter for this drama, I vote for you. Bro, what do you say?"

Wu ngting truly favored Yang Ziyin as the female lead, but previously, Yang Ziyin’s fee was too high, and there was also concern about her being slightly too old.

However, seeing Yang Ziyin in person this ti, although made up, she showed no signs of aging. On the surface, she looked no older than twenty-five or twenty-six.

With so fine makeup and costu props during filming, adding so filters, she can still play a youthful role.

So, age really wasn’t the issue; it was mainly the fee.

But now that she was willing to lower her fee, Wu ngting would naturally prefer her to star as the lead.

However, Chen Feng didn’t think the sa. He had already promised Zhang Yuxi, and there was no possibility of going back on his word.

In Chen Feng’s mind, Zhang Yuxi was actually more suitable for this role than Yang Ziyin, at least more aligned with the female lead’s setting, along with a lower fee, so why wouldn’t he, as the boss and investor, choose her?

Not to ntion, Zhang Yuxi was much closer to him than Yang Ziyin.

Seeing the four won at the table all looking at him, Chen Feng, after a brief contemplation, still shook his head slightly and said, "I’m sorry, this role has already been promised to soone else. If you had contacted even yesterday or this morning, I would have prioritized having Sister Yang as the lead, but now it’s a bit late."

Hao Xiaolian and Yang Ziyin both had a change of expression upon hearing this. Yang Ziyin couldn’t help but ask, "Who? Who did you promise this role to?"

After a glance at her, Chen Feng answered truthfully, "Zhang Yuxi, from Star dia."

"Her?!"

Hao Xiaolian and Yang Ziyin were both a bit surprised but clearly knew of her.

Hao Xiaolian frowned and said, "Hasn’t this Zhang Yuxi not acted in many dramas before? She mainly focuses on singing, not acting. Can her acting really handle such a complex character role?"

Yang Ziyin didn’t say anything further, but her expression clearly showed her discontent.

Chen Feng explained briefly, "This morning, she and two other top actresses ca to our company for an audition. Although the other two actresses are indeed very capable, after the audition, several of our company’s interviewers all felt that Zhang Yuxi was the most suitable choice. While she hasn’t acted in many dramas before, she has been receiving tutoring from professional acting coaches. Her acting skills may not be top-tier now, but they are at least above the passing line."

Chen Feng’s words obviously didn’t convince them, and Hao Xiaolian frowned and asked, "Is that all there is to it?"

Giving her a glance, Chen Feng wasn’t angry and replied calmly, "Besides her being the suitable choice for the female lead role, I also owe a favor to a friend who is a shareholder at Star dia. He requested on her behalf, and Zhang Yuxi fits the role. I had no reason to refuse and agreed to this friend this afternoon."

Upon hearing this, Hao Xiaolian and Yang Ziyin exchanged a glance, both understanding. They knew Tao Yaoyang was Chen Feng’s friend and also a shareholder of Star dia.

Wu ngting and Sun Xiaorui knew this as well.

Therefore, in their view, it was likely Tao Yaoyang who intervened for Zhang Yuxi.

Tao Yaoyang was a man of considerable influence. While Hao Xiaolian and Yang Ziyin had so standing in the entertainnt circle, they couldn’t compare with soone representing capital like Tao Yaoyang nor dared to offend him.

"Ah, that’s really a pity." Knowing the situation was beyond help, Hao Xiaolian sighed and said, "Both Little Ying and I had high hopes for your new drama, only to miss it like this."

Yang Ziyin also looked dejected and disappointed. She really had high hopes for this drama, feeling that if she did well in this new drama, even if it didn’t propel her career to the next level, it could at least solidify her status as a top-tier star in the film circle.

What a pity indeed!

Seeing this, Chen Feng didn’t want to strain their relationships and proactively offered so comfort, "We’ve missed this one. I also think it’s a bit regrettable and hope we have a chance to work together next ti. If our company starts a new drama next ti with a suitable main female role, we’ll definitely prioritize Sister Yang."

Hao Xiaolian imdiately showed a cooperative smile and said, "Okay! You said it, I’ll rember. Don’t go back on your word then."

"Of course." Chen Feng assured earnestly.

Personally, he had a good impression of the big star Yang Ziyin. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have helped her in Austria. Moreover, given Yang Ziyin’s status in the entertainnt circle, there was no downside to having an opportunity for cooperation.

"Co, let toast you with tea in lieu of wine." Hao Xiaolian stood up and courteously raised her teacup. Now that Chen Feng had risen to be the boss of a company that produced blockbuster dramas, as an actress’s agent, she certainly wanted to maintain a good relationship.

Seeing this, Yang Ziyin also stood up, raised her teacup, and smilingly said to Chen Feng, "Chen Feng, I’m serious about this. I hope you won’t disappoint next ti."

Chen Feng naturally also stood up and replied with a smile, "Of course, next ti I’ll have ngting create a special drama just for you. What do you think?"

"That would be great. As long as it satisfies , I’m willing to pitch in so money to share part of the investnt burden. ngting, would you be willing to create sothing tailor-made for ? I really like the piece ’Green Jade Case’ that you wrote."

Wu ngting also hurriedly stood up to express her stance, "Of course. You’re one of my favorite actresses, and it would be my honor if you could star in sothing I wrote."
