Side Character Transmigrations: The Final Boss is No Joke

CHAPTER 5

"The company has already resolved the matter with the producers of 《City-Toppling》 but the compensation will be deducted from your paycheck." Tang Yin paused before continuing with slight doubts, "The script was really bad. Why did you go and accept a role there?"

Shi Sheng shrugged. "Milan arranged it. I'm just a starlet who's barely reached the 18th rank, where would I get the qualifications to disagree with a gold-level agent?"

Hearing her words, Tang Yin got even more curious about this actress who had recommended herself to him. Ever since he had taken over her management, the company had given him a stand-alone office. Even all the good resources and opportunities were given to him. To him who had still been a newbie without any actors under his wing, this was pretty much a pie that fell out of the sky.

For some reason, he felt like he had been conned into something. Suppressing that feeling, Tang Yin handed over three scripts to Shi Sheng. "These are the ones left over after I screened them."

Shi Sheng simply looked at their names before picking one out. "This one."

Tang Yin didn't object. These three books were those he had selected out. No matter which she picked, it wouldn't be too bad.

The one Shi Sheng picked was a Xianxia drama. Its setting was in a cultivation world. The cultivation sect 'Profound Sect' had been massacred, leaving the sole survivor, Qing Yan. He was rescued by a peach blossom that had managed to cultivate into a spirit. Together, the two embarked on a quest to uncover the truth behind the slaughter of the 'Profound Sect'.

This was a drama adapted from a novel and was one of the more famous Xianxia novels in the recent year. Shi Sheng wasn't planning to audition for the female lead, the peach blossom spirit, but instead the second supporting female lead. This character had a pretty good background but her ending wasn't too good.

"Do you have any confidence?" Tang Yin asked uncertainly.

He had seen the shows she had acted in and concluded that her acting skills weren't that good. However, in this drama, the second supporting female lead was an extremely important character. In the early stages, she was mischievous and lively but in the later stages, her character would undergo a dark transformation. She would become cold-blooded and ruthless. With two polar opposite personalities to be acted out in one character, it wasn't easy to act out.

He had originally had his eye on the supporting female lead role- Though, with her qualifications she might not be able to land it...

However, who would have expected her to pick the second supporting female lead role? Shi Sheng shut the script before revealing a mouthful of white teeth. "We'll know once we try."

Tang Yin looked at her deeply before bringing her upstairs to the floor where the auditions were held. When the elevator door opened, they came face-to-face with Milan who was bringing a young and pretty girl with her. Milan looked at Shi Sheng with disgust and even more discontent and hatred. 'I'm a gold-level agent but she actually didn't want to follow me and instead went to follow a newbie who had just entered the company. Isn't this outright slapping me in the face?'

Of course, the greater part of the reason she was unhappy was that support team.

"Milan-jie." Tang Yin gave a relatively polite greeting. When his gaze swept over that girl, it darkened a few shades. Milan gave a slight nod and gave a standard smile. Sometimes, especially like right now, the outward appearance of civility still had to be kept. Milan hadn't spoken yet when the girl behind her spoke first in a taunting voice, "Jiang Wan is coming for an audition too? Which role are you auditioning for? Why don't we get Milan-jie to help you consider your options? After all, we can't delay our futures."
