Huayu: We're asking you to act, and you're playing a superhuman?

Chapter 30 Naza plays the second female lead.

Beijing, Beijing Film Academy campus.

Now a sophomore, a month into the new semester, Nazar finally received the final payment for his role in "Xuan-Yuan Sword".

Upon seeing the SMS notification that the money had arrived, Naza's first thought was: Finally, I can have a good meal!

As a 20-year-old girl, she didn't have much savings to begin with.

The bank card that Nazar left with Wang Weili in Shanghai last month contained almost all of her wealth.

If she hadn't known that the final payment for her film's fees would be coming in, she would have already considered taking on some extra work to earn extra money.

Unfortunately, signing with a management company means that she has to report her work to the company. Even if Naza wanted to earn extra money, the agent at Sugar Man wouldn't let her go out and lower her status.

Thinking about this, Naza couldn't help but sigh: Being a celebrity is nothing more than a facade of glamour...

"Ring ring! Ring ring!"

The sudden ringing of the cell phone interrupted my worries.

Naza took out her phone, looked at the incoming call notification on the screen, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up.

"Hey! Willie, how have you been lately?"

"I've been looking for you lately!"

Hearing Wang Weili's familiar voice, Nazha's smile deepened.

"If you need to find me, feel free to call me anytime. I'm always available!"

"So I'm calling now. Let's get down to business. What's your schedule like for the next few months?"

"I've always been available, but the company hasn't assigned me any work. It feels like I'm being sidelined..."

Naza stopped to make a phone call, his canvas shoes kicking the bluestone bricks repeatedly.

"I have a supporting actress role here, would you like to play it?"

"what?"

Naza remained frozen in place, his foot still in the kicking position.

Wang Weili repeated over the phone, "I've received a role in a film. I'll be the male lead, and the second female lead would be more suitable for you. Would you like to take it?"

"Of course I want to!"

Naza hurriedly agreed, as if the opportunity would slip away if he delayed even a second.

However, as soon as she agreed, she thought of the problem that was hindering her.

"But, Willie, K-sister at the company might not let me work with you..."

Naza held his phone, speaking softly, his eyelids drooping.

"It's okay, I have a way."

"Um?"

Naza was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, "There's a way to do this?"

"I won't tell you the specifics of how to do it. Just keep an eye on your agent's calls these next few days."

"it is good."

"Go report the card lost and get a replacement. I haven't touched a single penny in it!"

"Okay, sure."

Naza bit her lip, her heart pounding at Wang Weili's confident yet mysterious words, and ripples of light appeared in her deep eyes.

……

After ending the call with Nazar, Wang Weili immediately called Jiang Sanshi, the vice president of H&R Century Pictures.

"Willie, we're pretty on the same wavelength! I was just about to call you!"

"Then Mr. Jiang, you go first."

"OK, just like I told you on the phone this morning, the script has been approved, the crew has been assembled, and Yang Mi has just confirmed her schedule. Now we're just waiting for you and the second female lead to sign the contract so we can start preparing for filming."

"May I ask about the final choice for director?"

Wang Weili looked hesitant; if there were other ways to achieve his goal, he didn't want to put any more pressure on Cai Yinong.

"They're the three I told you about last time; they can handle multi-person directing."

"Mr. Jiang, you haven't shown any intention of recruiting them yet, have you?"

"We definitely can't rush this. I plan to ask them again during filming..."

"Okay, I understand now."

Jiang Sanshi asked what he meant by that, and Wang Weili only said that his contract needed to be signed in a few days.

"Then, please tell Director Lin Yufen that the second female lead in 'Swords of Legends' is very suitable for Naza. I hope that Sugar Man can make arrangements. If Cai Yinong asks about the male and female leads, just say that you are in contact with artists from Hong Kong or Taiwan."

"Are you trying to fool Cai Yinong?"

"The main problem is that President Cai has some issues with me. If she finds out the specifics, we'll probably have to find another actress to play the second female lead."

"Okay, I'll give it a try."

Wang Weili thanked Jiang Sanshi over the phone and said he would never forget his help.

Jiang Sanshi said it was too polite, but his tone was very satisfied.

Although he didn't think he needed Wang Weili's help in any way, establishing a good relationship beforehand would be beneficial for future cooperation.

That afternoon, Cai Yinong received a recommendation call from Lin Yufen.

"You mean, Huanrui is preparing a fantasy drama and wants Nezha to play the second female lead?"

"Yes! This film has a large budget, and the second female lead is just right for Nazha's current status..."

Listening to Lin Yufen's sales pitch over the phone, Cai Yinong frowned slightly.

"Excuse me, have the male and female leads for this drama been cast yet?"

"We're still in talks. Huanrui's intention is to find stars from Hong Kong or Taiwan."

"Oh, that's good..."

Cai Yinong nodded, indicating that the arrangement was reasonable.

She was just wondering if Huanrui would cast Wang Weili as the male lead.

However, on the other hand, for such a huge investment project, even if the male and female leads are not their own artists, they still need to find a famous and high-profile star.

Wang Weili is still lacking.

"Naza is suitable for the second female lead role, but she's been a bit disobedient lately. I've only been ignoring her for less than two months!"

Cai Yinong tapped her fingers lightly on the table a few times, believing that the lesson Nazha had learned was not enough to teach her a lesson.

Lin Yufen advised, "What's there to neglect? Nazha is an artist under the company. Even if his status rises, he's still making money for the company!"

"That's not wrong..."

"Using Huanrui's projects to create stars for ourselves is definitely a sure way to make money."

"You're right. Okay, I'll call Nazar's agent later and have her talk to Huanrui about the contract."

Cai Yinong eventually agreed.

Just as Lin Yufen said, by using Huanrui's projects to help Nazha boost her career, she is guaranteed to make a profit!

The next morning, after Naza finished a class, he received a call from his agent.

The surprise in her heart was like huge waves crashing against the rocks, one after another.

"Naza, the company has landed you a supporting role in a fantasy drama. You'll be signing the contract soon."

"The second female lead?"

"Yes! Hurry up and check the flight tickets for the next two days, fly over and meet me."

"Um, Sister Han, has the male lead for this drama been decided yet?"

"Not yet. I heard they're looking for actors from Hong Kong or Taiwan. You should check your plane tickets now."

"oh oh."

Naza was both excited and disappointed. After hanging up the phone, she didn't even check the plane tickets. Instead, she anxiously called Wang Weili.

"William, did you give up the male lead so I could get the second female lead role?"

"No! I'm still the male lead."

"My agent just said the male lead..."

"If you didn't say that, K-sister wouldn't have let them go, right?"

Naza paused for a moment, and when she came to her senses, the corners of her eyes inevitably twitched up.
