Entertainment: Who still wants to fall in love when there are cheats?

Chapter 38 Yuwen Chengdu
"Boda, you really are, really..." Sister Wang didn't know how to describe Li Boda's luck.

He is clearly an unappreciated male lead, barely an important supporting role, but because the male lead suffers from altitude sickness, the screenwriter and director have to frantically move the male lead's role to him, the male lead.

Is this still the fifth male lead? He's clearly the first male lead.

Sister Wang also read some of the content that the screenwriter Shisan had changed. This is no longer "A Chinese Ghost Story", it is clearly "Legend of Seven Nights"!

Sister Wang really doesn’t know what to say about Li Boda’s luck.

It is said that Li Boda is lucky.

Li Boda was previously cast in "Snow Goddess Dragon" as the second male lead, but the crew was a mess and he was nothing. Li Boda was unlucky, as the fifth male lead in "A Chinese Ghost Story" was unexpectedly filmed as "Legend of the Seven Nights". Li Boda was not the protagonist, but he was better than the protagonist.

"I'm lucky. Maybe I can become a big star directly." Li Boda said jokingly.

"You are indeed lucky - but if your luck is really good, then [Snow Goddess Dragon] might even become a hit." Sister Wang couldn't help but say jokingly.

When Li Boda heard Sister Wang say that "Snow Goddess Dragon" became a hit, he couldn't help rolling his eyes. The plot was average, the costumes and props were very poor, the fighting scenes were scattered, and the shots were also poor. If "Snow Goddess Dragon" could become a hit, he would stop filming and just go buy a lottery ticket.

Sister Wang was just joking.

However, the situation of the drama "A Chinese Ghost Story" did indeed cheer up Sister Wang.

Li Boda, this artist was not valued by the company and was casually assigned to her. Even she herself did not pay much attention to him. She did not arrange any assistant for Li Boda during the filming.

If Li Boda became famous because of the drama "A Chinese Ghost Story", then it really was Li Boda's destiny to be famous.

In her heart, Sister Wang's respect for Li Boda also increased a little, and she was thinking about arranging all the necessary treatments for Li Boda.

After filming "A Chinese Ghost Story", Li Boda got some time to rest.

Although Li Boda was skilled in martial arts, he was relatively strong and healthy.

But after filming "A Chinese Ghost Story", I slept for almost a day and a night, and in the following week, I still didn't seem to be very energetic.

At this time, the assistant arranged by Sister Wang for Li Boda also arrived.

Li Boda's assistant is a girl of average looks, average build, and average height. It seems that everything about her is average. In a crowd, she is the kind that is particularly inconspicuous.

Because the assistant has a round face, she is called Xiaoyuan.

Xiaoyuan is also a new assistant. It is her first time to be an assistant. However, before becoming an assistant, the company also provided Xiaoyuan with some relevant training. So even though Xiaoyuan is a newcomer and may not be good enough in some aspects, she is still qualified to play the role of Li Boda, an actor who has not been well-known so far.

Xiao Yuan went to Li Boda's place every day to help him clean the house, prepare three meals a day, etc. It felt like she was a babysitter.

But she is obedient, and Li Boda thinks it is good to have an assistant like Xiaoyuan.

After resting for almost a week, Sister Wang appeared in front of Li Boda again and handed him a script.

"Boda, although you have filmed "A Chinese Ghost Story" before, and even had a lot more roles due to some accidents. But "A Chinese Ghost Story" has not been broadcast after all, so you are still not famous now. The company wants to find some good crews and good roles for you, but it is still difficult. I hope you can understand." Sister Wang comforted Li Boda while handing him the script.

"Sister Wang, I understand. I am just a newcomer with no fame at all. It's good enough that the company can give me a role." Li Boda nodded sensibly.

"You're right to think so. This time the script is [Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties], and the role you play is Yuwen Chengdu. But this role will have fewer scenes, and he'll be a minor villain—" Sister Wang said embarrassedly.

"Hmm." Li Boda didn't have any ideas. Just like what Sister Wang said just now, he had played some small supporting roles in the TV series he had filmed before and was not very famous. Although he became the protagonist of "A Chinese Ghost Story" due to some changes, it was normal that he couldn't get any good roles because it hadn't been broadcast yet.

Seeing that Li Boda had no objections, Sister Wang's expression improved a lot. "Actually, it was because you were filming A Chinese Ghost Story before, which took up some of my time. By the time A Chinese Ghost Story wrapped, some of the roles in Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties had already been confirmed. You're kind of taking advantage of it. If it weren't for the company's efforts, it would have been difficult for me to get the role of Yuwen Chengdu."

"Sister Wang, I understand! Yuwen Chengdu is also very good."

"[Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties] is also a big production, and the male lead is Huang Haibing. Qiong Yao asked him to be the lead several times, but he refused. So this [Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties] will definitely be popular. Even if you only play Yuwen Chengdu in this play, as long as you perform well, you will still gain popularity." Sister Wang introduced some information about the crew.

"Don't worry, Sister Wang, I will definitely act well." Li Boda promised.

"Let's put it this way. After "A Chinese Ghost Story" is broadcast, I will definitely help you get a bigger production, and even get you the role of the second male lead. This is Sister Wang's promise to you." Seeing Li Boda like this, Sister Wang's favor for Li Boda grew, and she patted her chest to give Li Boda the promise.

"Really? Then I'll wait for your guarantee, Sister Wang." Li Boda's eyes lit up.

"Don't worry, I, your sister Wang, don't have many people under me. You are outstanding in all aspects. If I don't help you, who else can I help?"

After getting Sister Wang's assurance, Li Boda took the script back to his residence and began to carefully read the script of Yuwen Chengdu.

However, after reading the script, Li Boda's expression couldn't help but feel a little weird.

This Yuwen Chengdu is indeed a villain, but this villain, how to say it, is indeed quite hateful, but, he also feels that he is quite, quite - he doesn't know how to describe it.

"I, Yuwen Chengdu, hate wasting things the most. I usually eat up every grain of rice in the bowl..." He said such lines, and he even let his soldiers line up behind him!

He really has good things and is willing to share them with his subordinates!
