This celebrity is absolutely wicked.

Chapter 154 You were so busy sending your wife to Lu Ran
After Lu Ran finished speaking, Pang Yuntian was stunned for a moment.

Soon he reacted.

Lu Ran wanted his wife, Xi Meixia, to play the role.

He met Xi Meixia while filming a movie, and they dated for quite a long time. After they got married, Xi Meixia indeed stopped acting in movies and TV series.

Especially in recent years, Xi Meixia has focused on taking care of her child at home and has stopped acting.

In fact, Pang Yuntian knew about his wife's affair.

Xi Meixia is not uninterested in acting.

If she hadn't been interested, Xi Meixia wouldn't have applied to the film academy back then, nor would she have left behind classic roles for the audience.

Between career and family, Xi Meixia chose family.

This is also where Pang Yuntian feels indebted to Xi Meixia.

Xi Meixia could have had better opportunities for development.

Pang Yuntian stopped joking and said seriously, "Lu Ran, do you really want my wife to act? To be honest, without a good script, even I can't persuade her."

Actors like Xi Meixia have high standards for scripts.

Unless it's a friend asking her to do something she can't refuse, she'll only do things for a really good notebook.

I haven't acted in three years, so one or two more won't make a difference.

"I'll send you the script. You can show it to Teacher Xi first. I'm sure Teacher Xi will agree," Lu Ran said confidently.

Pang Yuntian sighed: "Alright, I'll talk to her on your behalf too."

After hanging up the phone, Liu Qianyuan asked, "How did it go? Is Lu Ran coming to act?"

Pang Yuntian slapped his forehead: "I forgot to ask. Never mind, I'll talk about it later."

If he can persuade Xi Meixia to help, then he can invite Lu Ran, and Lu Ran will definitely feel embarrassed to refuse.

However, Pang Yuntian didn't have much hope for Lu Ran's script, "The Beginning".

Lu Ran had no prior experience as a screenwriter or in writing stories.

The quality of the script is hard to say.

There are plenty of people in the industry who write screenplays, and many singers also want to write screenplays and become directors.

The difference between them and Lu Ran is that Lu Ran gets funding for his films, while these people want to make films but don't get funding.

Soon, the script for "The Beginning" was delivered to Pang Yuntian.

Pang Yuntian called Liu Qianyuan over: "Since you're here too, let's watch it together. Or, I'll call Meixia over as well."

Pang Yuntian has a room in his home that has been converted into a studio.

The walls of the studio are lined with desks, each with four or five computers.

Besides the computer, another room next door was knocked down and turned into a movie room where you can lie on the sofa to watch movies and drink.

People like him who frequently discuss scripts with others usually have homes like this.

If you have any good ideas, you can modify them directly on the computer. If you want to watch a movie with your friends and discuss the plot, you can watch the movie in the screening room.

Pang Yuntian called out Xi Meixia.

Her child is already in kindergarten, and Xi Meixia doesn't have much to do during the day, mainly taking her child to and from school.

"Let me show you a script, the beginning written by Lu Ran."

Xi Meixia clearly takes good care of herself; she has great skin and an outstanding temperament, giving the impression of a university professor.

Xi Meixia laughed and said, "Ever since 'The Song of the Clear Sky' wrapped up filming, I've heard you talking about Lu Ran every day at home, saying that there's a successor. What's wrong? Now he's writing his own scripts and not acting in your shows anymore?"

The couple also frequently tease each other.

Pang Yuntian waved his hand: "What? He wants to invite you to act in a play."

Xi Meixia: "Then I'll have to take a good look."

Xi Meixia sat down in front of a computer.

Pang Yuntian sent the script over, and he and Liu Qianyuan looked at one computer while Xi Meixia looked at another.

Half an hour later, Pang Yuntian slapped his thigh.

"This plot is great!"

Based on the synopsis alone, I thought it was just an ordinary suspense story, but after reading it, I realized that the script was quite profound.

Beside her, Xi Meixia held the mouse in her right hand and rested her chin on her left, her eyes fixed on the screen as she carefully read the contents of the script.

The image of Tao Yinghong's character gradually emerged in her mind.

This character is the perpetrator of the bombing, but also an angry, helpless, and desperate victim mother.

From a dedicated high school teacher, he gradually transformed into a scheming avenger.

The process fascinated Xi Meixia.

Clearly, this role is very challenging.

Just as I was engrossed in watching, Pang Yuntian's voice rang out from beside me again.

"It's unbelievable that Lu Ran wrote this script."

Xi Meixia said irritably, "Shut up!"

Pang Yuntian immediately fell silent.

Twenty minutes later, Xi Meixia let out a long sigh of relief. She moved the mouse and closed the script document.

Then I sat in the chair and thought.

Pang Yuntian and Liu Qianyuan wisely waited quietly to the side.

Xi Meixia is a person with her own ideas and doesn't need Pang Yuntian to tell her what to do.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Xi Meixia looked at Pang Yuntian: "You said Lu Ran invited me to act?"

Pang Yuntian nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

Xi Meixia smiled and said, "I haven't stretched my muscles in three years, I'll give it a try."

A smile appeared on Pang Yuntian's face.

"Okay!"

Xi Meixia looked at him coldly: "I can tell you're happy, but not because I'm going to act. Never mind, I'm not talking to you anymore. I'm going to pick up the kids. You and Lu Ran confirm the time."

Xi Meixia got up and left.

After Xi Meixia left, Pang Yuntian called Lu Ran.

As soon as the call connected, a smile immediately appeared on his face: "Hahaha, Lu Ran, I've finished reading the opening script, it's really well written."

Lu Ran laughed loudly: "Brother Tian, ​​you flatter me. This script still has quite a few problems. My abilities are limited, so this is all I can do."

Pang Yuntian: "Hahaha, what are you saying? If your script has so many problems, then there aren't many good scripts left."

Liu Qianyuan kicked Pang Yuntian.

Get to the point!
Pang Yuntian then said, "Lu Ran, your sister-in-law has already read the script. There's no problem; she can act in it." "Really? When does your sister-in-law have time to come to Qincheng?"

"Anytime."

"Then let's do it tomorrow. Our crew is all in Qincheng anyway."

"Okay, I'll send your sister-in-law over to you tomorrow."

In the end, Pang Yuntian still didn't mention having Lu Ran act in "Black Tide".

Liu Qianyuan was speechless.

He kicked Pang Yuntian: "I'm telling you to talk about serious matters, but you've been busy sending your wife to Lu Ran!"

Pang Yuntian smiled faintly: "Don't worry, I'll talk to Lu Ran when we meet tomorrow. Things have come to this point, Lu Ran definitely can't refuse."

The next morning, Pang Yuntian and Xi Meixia took a plane to Qincheng.

As soon as they exited the airport, Pang Yuntian and his companion saw a man in a black suit, wearing white gloves, and holding a bouquet of flowers standing in the arrivals area.

The man was also holding up a sign in his other hand that read, “Welcome Mr. Pang and Ms. Xi to Qincheng.”

Pang Yuntian and Xi Meixia exchanged a glance.

Pang Yuntian: "Are they picking us up?"

Xi Meixia: "Right?"

Neither of them wore masks when they went out; these has-been celebrities don't get much attention anymore.

After speaking, the two went back to put on their masks before walking up to the person holding the sign.

"Are you from Chang'an Entertainment?"

The person holding the sign said, "That's right."

He gave the flowers to Xi Meixia, who quickly said, "Let's go, let's go!"

When the driver brought the two of them to Chang'an Entertainment, there was a banner hanging inside the company.

"Welcome Pang Yuntian and teacher Xi Meixia to visit and provide guidance."

Pang Yuntian and the other man looked embarrassed.

But it must be said that, as awkward as it may be, it was incredibly emotionally valuable.

Lu Ran, Meng Yichuan, Li Quan, Shen Qingyi, and others stood at the door to greet them.

Pang Yuntian and Xi Meixia were also all smiles.

People of their caliber wouldn't be treated this way at other companies.

I must say, Lu Ran handled this matter brilliantly.

After a welcome lunch, everyone returned to the company.

Xi Meixia took the initiative and said, "Director Meng, Teacher Lu, we've eaten and drunk our fill, shouldn't we start the audition now?"

Lu Ran said, "Okay, let's try the part where Tao Yinghong is talking to Wang Xingde at home."

Xi Meixia looked around and asked, "Is anyone acting with me?"

If no one is willing to act with her, she plans to perform alone.

Lu Ran volunteered.

"Let me do it."

Meng Yichuan and the others made way, leaving the sofa for Lu Ran and Xi Meixia.

Lu Ran sat on a single sofa, while Xi Meixia sat on a multi-seater sofa.

Xi Meixia opened the script on her phone and read it for three minutes.

He then put down his phone.

"Teacher Lu, we can begin," Xi Meixia said slowly.

Lu Ran nodded.

Xi Meixia leaned back on the sofa, her expression calm and indifferent.

"You still haven't answered me why. On the day our daughter had the accident, I called you twice, but you didn't answer either time. Why? Why didn't you answer?"

Lu Ran rested his hands on his knees, looking somewhat awkward.

The plot here is about what happened after the police provided a solution to the case of the death of their daughter, Wang Mengmeng, and Wang Xingde went to the police station to sign the agreement.

Online, many people are still cyberbullying Wang Mengmeng.

As a mother, Tao Yinghong was completely unable to accept it and was on the verge of a mental breakdown.

"I ask you, does your daughter call you often? No, because she knows you drive all the time and is worried about the danger. Does your daughter call me often? No, because I'm an excellent teacher and I never bring my phone to class."

Xi Meixia recounted the story silently.

"But on that day, at 1:42 and 1:44, just before she got off the bus, she called you twice, but you didn't answer either time."

As Xi Meixia spoke, Lu Ran tightly clenched his lips, trying to hold back his tears.

Wang Xingde is the father; how could he not be heartbroken?

Xi Meixia continued to question him.

Why didn't you answer your daughter's two life-saving calls?

As Xi Meixia continued to question him, Lu Ran shed tears.

Meng Yichuan and Pang Yuntian, who were standing nearby, were both taken aback.

Hey!
You just start crying like that!
In this scene, Lu Ran has no lines, only gestures and expressions.

Xi Meixia has both lines and actions.

In the end, she waved her arms and shouted like a madwoman, completely losing her rationality.

"We are all murderers!"

After delivering his lines, Meng Yichuan hurriedly called out, "Alright, alright, Teacher Xi, that's enough."

He was terrified just looking at her, fearing that Xi Meixia might faint.

Xi Meixia's expression gradually softened, and she slowly detached herself from the role.

Lu Ran pulled out a tissue and wiped away her tears.

Once everyone had calmed down, they all looked at Lu Ran.

Xi Meixia's eyes showed surprise.

"Teacher Lu, your acting is very good."

In that situation, most young actors wouldn't dare look her in the eye, but Lu Ran not only dared to look, but also dared to meet her gaze without being affected by her, and successfully completed the performance.

This acting is unmatched.

Among the younger generation, there are almost none who can rival Lu Ran.
