Zhao Heng still couldn’t understand Shen You’an’s choice.
However, facts proved that every choice Shen You’an made was right, and once again, Zhao Heng chose to trust her.
"Double Shadows is about to be scheduled, expected to air around the Spring Festival. Recently, the crew organized an internal screening, and the feedback was very good."
Shen You’an responded with an "oh," "I might join the Daylight crew by then. You can handle the promotions."
Zhao Heng put on a long face: "I heard Director An Kui can be quite demanding. Are you sure you don’t want to wait until after the Spring Festival to join? Director An likes you so much; delaying for a month shouldn’t be a problem. Don’t worry about the investnt, we can afford it."
Shen You’an shook her head, "I don’t have much ti left. By next year at the latest, I’ll go abroad for seclusion. All promotional activities related to film and television will be left for the first half of the year."
Shen You’an started going over the schedule for the first half of the year on her tablet.
Zhao Heng hesitated and said, "Boss, are you really going abroad for scientific research?"
Shen You’an looked up from her tablet, her deep dark eyes glinting with an inexplicable light: "Acting is my passion and a way to make up for past regrets, but scientific research is my lifelong obsession."
Zhao Heng was very moved by these eyes and finally nodded helplessly.
"Alright then, the entertainnt industry loses a superstar actress, but the realm of scientific research gains a genius scientist."
Now it’s the end of the year, with many fashion events on red carpets in the fashion world, all extending invitations to Shen You’an.
Shen You’an rejected them all.
"I helped you decline all the fashion gala invitations, but I can’t turn this one down."
"Deep Sea Sound?"
Shen You’an smiled.
Zhao Heng continued to exaggerate the importance of attending: "This is Deep Sea Group’s most important annual event. No matter if you’re a movie emperor or top celebrity, if Deep Sea Group invites you, no one dares to refuse. Otherwise, you’ll be hit with negative news for an entire year. We’re newcors, so let’s give Deep Sea Group so face by making an appearance. At least Deep Sea Group has been good to us this year and hasn’t given us any negative exposure, but if you refuse Deep Sea Sound, next year might be different."
Deep Sea Sound will be held on the 15th of next month, just after the end of finals and the day before Madam Gu’s birthday.
"Double Shadows is about to air, and Deep Sea Sound is a great promotional platform with a huge buzz. The entire entertainnt circle is watching. Promoting Double Shadows there wouldn’t hurt. You might even win an award."
Though it’s a prize just for showing up, as small as it may be, it’s still sothing.
"Alright, I’ll go."
Zhao Heng was thrilled to get Shen You’an’s confirmation and imdiately went to contact a stylist, then began selecting haute couture.
The red carpet has always been a battlefield for female stars, pulling out all the stops to outshine each other. He must make sure the boss stands out, ensuring that even if she leaves the entertainnt industry, she remains the most beautiful legend in it.
"By the way, boss, I have a script here. I wonder if you’re interested."
This script just arrived at the company, fresh off the press.
"It’s Xie Quan’s latest comrcial masterpiece, a modern espionage genre aid at international audiences. Many people are fighting over this script. If you hadn’t let invest in Jinn Film and Television in advance, we wouldn’t even have a chance to audition."
Jinn Film and Television has been Xie Quan’s largest investor over his career, so there’s naturally so relationship there. Zhao Heng invested in Jinn Film and Television and beca a stakeholder. It’s not unreasonable for a stakeholder to ask for an audition opportunity to push their own actress.
Shen You’an took the script and glanced at it: "’Wintergreen’?"
In her previous life, she had never heard of this film.
Only the general the and several major scenes of the female lead were provided in the incomplete script.
The female lead plays the daughter of the male lead. The male lead is a police officer who went undercover in a spy organization and disappeared for years. The daughter grew up and followed in her father’s footsteps, becoming a police officer, determined to track down the spy organization of the past and find her father’s whereabouts, even at the risk of her life. During the investigation, she discovered the reason for her father’s disappearance was a mole hidden within the police force. In the end, father and daughter joined forces, caught the mole, and successfully dismantled the spy base in a thrilling story.
The script is impressive, a comrcial piece with gunfights and car chases. Director Xie Quan has successful comrcial films in his past works, so this one looks like a blockbuster.
Why had she never heard of this film in her previous life?
There could be various reasons leading to the project’s failure.
"According to reliable sources, the male lead is likely to be decided as Liang Ruofan, but Chen Fangzhou is also trying for the role. We’ll see who finally gets it."
