The Man Who was Scummed[MTL]

Chapter 33

"Weibo?" Normally, his manager would not specifically remind him to read Weibo. But when she said this, Wen Ran's heart trembled and she quickly asked, "I didn't read it, what's wrong?"

　　The agent let out a long sigh and said, "The cast list of Director Xu's new play has been revealed! But——"

　　Wen Ran hung up the call with trembling hands. He had a guess in his mind, but he hoped it was not true. As he thought about it, he hurriedly opened Weibo, and the word "Jinghong" immediately appeared on his hot search bar. Before my eyes, Jinghong is the new movie Director Xu is going to shoot.

　　He took a deep breath and clicked in, found the so-called cast list, and scanned it from top to bottom. No? Wen Ran frowned and bit his lip and looked again, it was really not there.

　　The guess came true, his name was not on it, in other words, he was not among Director Xu's casting choices.

　　After digesting this information, Wen Ran was extremely flustered, dizzy, legs weak, and her eyes were filled with dazzling scenery. He stumbled to the wall, leaned his back against the wall, and thought, how could this happen? Which audition had he not passed 100% in the past?

　　Why did it fail this time? There must be something wrong! Is it because Qin Yu didn't take care of things well? Or is it that Director Xu doesn't agree with him? Various speculations flashed through Wen Ran's mind, and the more he thought about it, the darker his face became.

　　The agent's call came in again, and Wen Ran answered the call irritably, with a bad tone, "I already know, I didn't get the role, are you satisfied? Don't bother me again, okay!" The agent was obviously frightened by him. , paused for a second or two before speaking: "I refuted the rumor. Director Xu refuted the rumor, but of course! He said that it was not the real cast list."

　　Wen Ran's pupils tightened when he heard this, and his body relaxed and slid down the wall. He sat on the floor with a smile of his own. What is this called? There is always a way out.

　　He knew that his wishes would come true. Then Wen Ran quickly stood up and patted his clothes. While there was still time, he rushed to the financial meeting to see Pei Jinzhi.

　　Talent show recording backstage

　　Unlike the noisy outside world where staff are coming and going, the VIP room is exceptionally quiet, with only one artist and her assistant.

　　They were chatting, "I heard that "Draft 202×" invited a big shot to be the sponsor. Who do you think it will be, Xiao An?" The assistant thought about it again and again, and finally gave up, "I can't guess, Zhou sister."

　　"Guess again." The female artist encouraged him. At this moment, the door of the VIP room suddenly opened. She turned around subconsciously, and then she was stunned on the spot, "Bai Actor!"

　　"Queen Zhou." Bai Chen smiled slightly at her. Zhou Yingying, Zhou Tianhou, debuted at the same time as Bai Chen. Now she is a big star in the music industry. She is powerful and has a cheerful personality. "Why are you being so polite? Just call me by my name!"

　　Bai Chen found a seat and sat down, "You can just call me by my name."

　　"Ran Ran!"

　　"What's wrong?!" Facing another call from her manager, Wen Ran wanted to pull her hair out in frustration. Is there anything that can't be discussed after he meets Pei Jinzhi?

　　The agent hesitated and said, "I just received a call from Director Xu. They said... they said you failed the audition!"

　　"Say it again!" Wen Ran sat in the driver's seat and looked ahead in disbelief. He had not yet left the parking lot.
