Chen Mengmeng thought of all the sad things in this life in just a few minutes.

Director Xiao's brows went from relaxed to frowning, and it took many times before he could not stop midway.

Chen Mengmeng has some acting skills, yes, but not much.

Her stumbling lines were in sharp contrast to the previous Ye Lan. It was precisely because she knew that she was not fully prepared that Chen Mengmeng chose to speak less and use her eyes and movements to perform, but she desperately wanted to look sad.

For a moment, forget about the little frogs in your head, but there is still the song of the little frogs in your mind.

Netizens who started going crazy because they couldn't get the toy composed the song and sang it with AI. The whole song has only one word, "Gugua".

Chen Mengmeng endured the last scene with difficulty. She fell to the ground tremblingly and closed her eyes, hoping to wait for the tears to fall, but her brain refused to obey.

The song of the little frog started to loop again. Chen Mengmeng really couldn't figure out why she was still thinking "Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu" after watching it for only one second!

"alright."

Director Xiao finally couldn't bear it and called a stop.

Chen Mengmeng stood up from the ground as if she had been rescued. She patted herself, bowed slightly to the judges' table and turned to leave. She did not forget to look at the producer as she walked down the steps.

The producer looked back at Chen Mengmeng with an "I understand" look.

Chen Mengmeng raised her chin and left. She did not forget to glance in the direction of Ye Lan, who was fiddling with her mobile phone and did not even notice that Chen Mengmeng had finished her performance.

Chen Mengmeng's proud posture was lonely. She could only roll her eyes at the air and glanced at the judging panel where the debate was taking place.

Chen Mengmeng knew that what he did was tantamount to cheating.

But so what if she cheated. Even a well-known director like Director Xiao will be limited by capital. Without his own godfather to invest money in, in this declining martial arts market, even if Director Xiao and a well-known IP

, aren’t they just as restrained and afraid to take photos?

What she, Chen Mengmeng, wants is just a female supporting role with few scenes, a role that can be outstanding or mediocre.

She admitted that her performance was not as good as Ye Lan's, but so what, she just brought money into the group to be a vase, and Director Xiao could only hold his nose and admit it.

If you have money, you can do whatever you want.

As for Ye Lan, if she had resources a long time ago, she would come to compete with him for a role. Rumors that the Huangfu family would not provide Ye Lan with any resources have made a lot of noise in the entertainment industry. So what if she marries into a wealthy family? Recently, everyone said

Ye Lan has a very good relationship with Huangfu Chen, the heir to the Huangfu family, but what can a little brat do?

The only thing that made Chen Mengmeng uncomfortable was Luo Qin, a gold medal manager who was very good-looking. Unexpectedly, he was willing to take Ye Lan with him!

But it's probably the relationship between Actress Zhou, after all, Actress Zhou's agent has a good relationship with Luo Qin.

After doing the addition and subtraction of her relationship with Ye Lan, Chen Mengmeng felt that her breathing became much easier. She took the phone handed over by her assistant, angrily clicked on the official website of Little Frog, and looked at the dusty words "Sold Out".

, and used his own Weibo account to poke the official, saying that he was willing to endorse, and send her a few of these little frogs, and she would get free shipping.

The official blog replied quickly. They expressed that they were very moved and then rejected Chen Mengmeng.

"Because everyone just wants Ye Lan's little frog qaq"

Chen Mengmeng was so angry that his expression contorted, and he held his cell phone in his assistant's face to ask her for comment.

"Isn't it just a stuffed toy? What's so great about it? It's as if no one cares about it!"

The assistant who was slapped in the face by the mobile phone dared not speak out in anger and could only lower her head and look at the floor.

Chen Mengmeng was furious, especially when he saw that Ye Lan was not far away. He felt that the air had become unclean, so he forced his assistant to say that he wanted to go out for some fresh air.

As soon as Chen Mengmeng left, several people in the judges' table started arguing loudly.

Director Xiao crossed his arms and shook his head, "No, Chen Mengmeng can't."

The producer persuaded her earnestly, "Brother Xiao, why can't you do it? The second female lead is just a beautiful vase. As long as she's beautiful, that's all. I admit, Ye Lan is beautiful, but Chen Mengmeng is not bad either."

The screenwriter was unconvinced, "She didn't understand the character at all, and she didn't memorize the lines clearly. Anyway, I don't agree with it."

The male protagonist of the movie is also a veteran actor. He chose not to speak, so no one can be offended.

Director Xiao tapped his fingers on the table and flipped through the two resumes at hand, one from Ye Lan and one from Chen Mengmeng.

Ye Lan's resume is only two thin pages. She has participated in many movies and TV series, has not been a leading role a few times, has not won any awards, and has a lot of black material on her body. Chen Mengmeng is completely different.

She has acted in important movies and TV series. She just won the Newcomer Award and is currently in the spotlight.

The producer obviously saw Director Xiao's concerns and immediately pursued the victory, "Brother Xiao, you have been looking at this resume for so long. This Ye Lan is just a time bomb. With so much black material, who knows when it will explode.

, Brother Xiao, this is the movie you have been thinking about for so many years, you can’t ruin it just because of this piece of mouse shit.”

"I, the manager, don't like to hear what Producer Jiang said." Luo Qin came over and Producer Jiang looked at her in surprise, "Sister Luo, why are you here?"

"I am Ye Lan's agent now."

"Are you taking Ye Lan? In the past, Mr. Wang begged you to take Chen Mengmeng, but you were unwilling to do so. Why can't you think of taking Ye Lan now?"

"Producer Jiang, how much money have you received from Mr. Wang? Why are you trying so hard to promote her little lover?"

Producer Jiang's face turned red, but he quickly adjusted, "What a little lover, they are a serious couple."

Luo Qin's lips curled up, and she took out the information she had prepared in advance and handed it to Jiang, "Processor Jiang, there is a big discrepancy between the information I found and your background."

"This can be big..."

When Jiang took the information from Luo Qin, he took a breath of cold air and felt that the thin piece of paper in his hand was hotter than a potato.

Director Xiao saw that there was something wrong with Producer Jiang's expression, so he snatched the paper and looked at it, his face turned livid, "Jiang Cheng!"

Producer Jiang knows Director Xiao's temper. If everything on paper is true, even he wouldn't dare to use this kind of actress with a string of rosy news behind her!

Who would have thought that what Chen Mengmeng was looking for was a rich godfather who not only knew three things but also raised a beautiful little idol to be his sweetheart.

Any one of these is a bomb!

"Brother Xiao, Brother Xiao, this is indeed my responsibility." Producer Jiang quickly apologized, "The main reason is that Mr. Wang really gave a lot. He just said, Chen Mengmeng comes in, invests, Chen Mengmeng doesn't come in

, there is no investment.”

Actress Zhou frowned and looked at the producer, "With Director Xiao and the novel "Wushuang" as the flagship, how can we not attract investment?"

Jiang Jianpian's face suddenly turned into the skin of a bitter melon, and the bitter water in his stomach poured out with a bang.

"Sister Hui, you don't know that no one is optimistic about martial arts nowadays."

"A low-cost love idol drama has a low shooting cost and a short lead time, and the return on investment is quick. If the blind cat runs into a dead mouse and explodes, it can be said to be a huge profit."

"Martial arts requires a lot of investment and takes a long time to shoot. Plus..." Producer Jiang glanced at Director Xiao with his peripheral vision and gritted his teeth and said, "In addition, this bad old man's demanding shooting cycle must be

It’s been a long time. I’ve been begging my father and grandma everywhere, but it’s still not enough!”

When Director Xiao heard what Producer Jiang said, he immediately glared, "Who are you talking about, old man? You don't even look at what you are like now. You blame me for not being able to attract investment!"

"Why don't I blame you? If you had less demands and shot more hot topics, wouldn't other investors look down on you?"

"What does it mean to shoot hot subjects? None of my films have won awards!"

"How much money was made!"

Producer Jiang's words really blocked Director Xiao.

Director Xiao also knows how the outside world evaluates him as a director of "unpopular movies".

Winning awards will give you a good reputation, but if you don't get popular, you won't make any money.

Director Xiao, who had been proud all his life, looked at the good brother in front of him who was blushing and quarreling with him, and for the first time he felt that he was really old.

He let out a long sigh, sat down on the chair a little decadently, rubbed his face with his hands and asked, "How much more is left?"

"One hundred million."

When Producer Jiang opened his mouth, Queen Zhou's face changed. The male lead, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but say, "How about Chen Mengmeng? Mr. Wang can invest so much. I think he can suppress all these sexy news."

live."

Director Xiao looked at him sternly, "Can you hold it back? If the story about raising a pretty boy comes to light, halfway through the filming, and Mr. Wang says he will withdraw the investment, then he will withdraw the investment. What will happen then?"

The male lead could only scratch his hair in embarrassment. He was not a person who could say nice things. He hesitated and thought for a while before he said, "It really doesn't work. Let's work together. It's okay."

Director Xiao buried his face in his hands and paused for a few seconds to look at Producer Jiang, "Please return Mr. Wang's money. I choose Ye Lan."

Producer Jiang sighed and his back became a little rickety. He patted his old friend on the shoulder and said, "Don't be so pessimistic. I'll think of a solution, and then I'll think of a solution."

"that."

Ye Lan's voice sounded outside the crowd.

"Are you sure you choose me?"

Director Xiao walked through the crowd and looked at Ye Lan. The expression on his face finally improved, "I'm sure, you did a good job."

Maybe it was because he had just suffered a blow, Director Xiao's gloomy face relaxed a little, and his eyes looking at Ye Lan became a little more appreciative, "You handled a few points very well. Based on your performance, I have

I have some new ideas. Do you have any biographies? Let me see."

Ye Lan handed over the notes he had taken in an obedient manner. Looking at the thick script, Director Xiao became even more satisfied with Ye Lan. He pulled the screenwriter to flip through the script while nodding, pointing to several places on the script and saying

, "The script can be slightly changed here and a few scenes added."

Producer Jiang couldn't laugh or cry, "You old boy, you're thinking about how to spend money before you even get the investment!"

"Producer Jiang." Ye Lan patted Producer Jiang on the shoulder, "If I heard correctly, the investment is only 100 million short."
