Sweetest Top Actress in My Home

Chapter 695: No One is Stupid!

Jiang Yuning called Yu Shaowei and his current agent into his office.

They were all obviously about the same age. However, Yu Shaowei and his agent could not help but feel a little frightened when they saw Jiang Yuning.

This was because it seemed as though Jiang Yuning’s sharp gaze was like a sharp sword that could penetrate into their flesh and pierce directly into their hearts.

“Did I not make things clear before this, or do the both of you have a better way for your career path?” As soon as Jiang Yuning saw the both of them walking into her office, she asked them directly as she sat at her desk.

“Director Jiang, I have already gone through the scripts. In <The Sinner>, Shaowei will only be able to play the role of the third male lead. However, if he decides to act in <The Green Mountain>, he can play the role of the second male lead then.”

“I don’t care which role he will be able to play but which of the characters do you think would be more suitable for him?” Jiang Yuning asked Yu Shaowei’s agent. “It seems as though you do not want to make him play the identity of a villain, right?”

“I...” the other party choked. After pausing for several seconds, he replied, “I just think that it is really difficult for the role of a second male lead to come by...”

Jiang Yuning understood what the agent meant. Therefore, she turned her head to look at Yu Shaowei before she asked, “What about you then? What would you have chosen?”

Yu Shaowei glanced at his agent for a moment as he thought to himself. After a while, Jiang Yuning honestly replied, “I want to act in <The Sinner>.”

<The Sinner> is a criminal investigation drama, and the character that Jiang Yuning had chosen for him is the role of a villain with a few personal crude words. There were many action scenes and he would have to play the role of a tough guy. Although his character would be doing a lot of evil, his background story was actually very distressing and dynamic. Therefore, it was a full on negative role.

Yu Shaowei’s appearance was naturally suitable for this kind of role. It seemed as though the character had been tailored made for him.

“I know what you are thinking now. Although Shaowei is not popular now, you feel that you are undermining and lowering his value by accepting the role of the third male lead. I understand your worries. However, I have already made an agreement with Teacher Lin Cangxiao and he will be making a recommendation for Shaowei to participate in one of his variety shows. When the time comes, you only need to cooperate with me and I will let you know whether what I said is right or wrong then.”

Jiang Yuning understood Yu Shaowei’s agent’s worries. It had been very difficult for Yu Shaowei to get to where he was right now. Therefore, he could not help but worry that the audience would be confused if he had a total change of personality.

“Which variety program is it?”

“<Superstar Transformation>. As a special guest.”

The variety program was not top notch. However, the accumulative reception had been good all these while. This was because this variety program was dedicated to inviting celebrities to look for amateurs for an image transformation, including their dressing and makeup. Finally, a professional makeup artist will comment on the transformation and the highest rated team will be able to win some rewards for public welfare.”

In addition to the celebrity private service exposure in each issue, there will also be professional makeup artistes who would guide them in their dressing and matching. So, it was very popular with the young audiences.

However, although it was not a top or highly raved variety program, many popular artistes were competing to be on the show.

This kind of resources could not be easily obtained by any ordinary agents.

The only reason why Jiang Yuning could get the resources was simply because Lin Cangxiao wanted to cooperate with her. It was a win-win situation for both parties. This was because Lin Cangxiao also wanted to push <Superstar Transformation> to the front line.

This was when Jiang Yuning brought Yu Shaowei up to Lin Cangxiao. It seemed as though she had already found a perfect candidate.

“Okay then, I will be waiting.”

After reaching a consensus, Jiang Yuning then placed her gaze on Yu Shaowei. “In future, you can wear whatever you want to wear, according to your own ideas and preferences. You can show me what you want to wear first and there is no need for you to pretend to be sunny and approachable. You can express what you want to express. Go ahead and express it, and be comfortable with yourself.”

After hearing Jiang Yuning’s words, there was a sparkle in Yu Shaowei’s eyes.

Perhaps it was because Jiang Yuning had been an artiste herself, so she could empathize with the artistes who were in the trough. She knew exactly what they wanted.

“Director, I won’t disappoint your expectations.”

“Then I’ll take him to catch up with his advertisements in the afternoon first.” Yu Shaowei’s manager, Luo Hangyi said respectfully to Jiang Yuning.

“Go on.”

After that, Jiang Yuning spoke with Lin Cangxiao’s side on the phone to confirm Yu Shaowei’s participation in the next episode of <Superstar Transformation>.

They would be focusing on transforming Yu Shaowei.

After that, there was news from the media that Jiang Yuning had already sent Qin Wen to Japan for further training. Moreover, someone also revealed that what Jiang Yuning really wanted to work on was the three artistes who were at the bottom in Guangying Media.

Yu Shaowei, Tang Feng, and Qiqi.

If the media did not reveal the news, perhaps the public wouldn’t have remembered that Guangying Media still had these three artistes.

It was also because of of Jiang Yuning’s support, so these three were quickly noticed, and there became a topic of conversation.

On a certain forum, a discussion quickly began to discuss this matter.

Because Jiang Yuning was really too good at touching the interest of the netizens, she was already used to creating controversy and conflict.

[I didn’t know that Guangying Media had such unknown artistes.]

[These few people really have no advantages or selling points at all. This is especially so for that Yu Shaowei who has such a bad boy image! Just his personality alone would be a cause for failure.]

[Jiang Yuning is really hilarious. Can she really afford to do so? It seems as though one Qin Wen is not enough. She is taking three at once now. If any one of them can become famous or popular, then I guess she could really laugh out loud at that time!]

[Yu Shaowei is really greasy too!]

[How the hell did someone like Tang Feng got into...Guangying Media? I might as well be the one at Guangying Media instead.]

[The only well-behaved one is Qiqi, but all in all, there are too many well-behaved actresses. Qiqi really doesn’t have the advantage.]

[Don’t you guys think that you’ve fallen into Jiang Yuning’s trap now? Nine out of ten posts in the forum discussing the names of those three artistes. This is even more than the number of their yearly appearances. Tsk! Tsk!]

[No one is stupid! This discussion is actually very fierce and exciting. There are also people who can gamble about this matter now!]

[Damn it! The next issue of <Superstar Transformation> will be featuring Yu Shaowei and he will be participating in the recording. Jiang Yuning really took the shot.]

In fact, this news was released by Jiang Yuning and Lin Cangxiao together.

Sort of a warm-up for Yu Shaowei’s variety show.

It was because the one with the worst image problem was Yu Shaowei, who has a good appearance, but could not create a good impression.

In fact, the production team of <The Sinner> was also not very satisfied because of the cooperation with the Guangying Media.

This was because they thought that Guangying Media would not be interested in such a small role. Unexpectedly, Jiang Yuning actually wanted the role of the third male lead.

And, it was still Yu Shaowei playing it.

The production team felt like they’d hit themselves with a rock, but they couldn’t come out and push back.

The director did call Shen Yichen to test his attitude. However, Shen Yichen pushed the matter directly to Jiang Yuning and asked the other party to approach Jiang Yuning.

When Jiang Yuning received the call, she didn’t hesitate to ask for the third male lead.

The director had no choice, and was thinking of discussing with the writer to weaken the role, or just shorten the appearances of the third male lead to a few episodes.

But...

Jiang Yuning also said something else.

“I’ll send a set of drawings to the director’s email tomorrow. After you’ve seen them, and if you think he’s still no good, then you can do whatever you want to do with the role.”
