Chapter 274  : New Drama Resource

“L… [heard it from someone else,” Jiang Ran stammered as she explained.

Jiang Yu didn’t expose her lame excuse and went straight upstairs. She said, “I just came back to get some things. I’ll be leaving in a while.”

“Oh… oh.” Jiang Ran now hoped that Jiang Yu would leave as soon as possible.

Jiang Yu followed her wishes and took a few clothes before she left.

Only then did Jiang Ran heave a few sighs of relief. She was afraid that Jiang Yu had just heard her petty tricks.

The next day, Jiang Yu was resting in her dormitory. Dai Zhu tagged her in the wechat fan group and said, “Jiang Yu! The ‘Best New Actor’s Award’ also has a follow-up benefit! That is, resources for a new drama!”

‘The moment she said that, the group immediately went into an uproar.

Tian Guo: “Really? What kind of drama is it?”

Dai Zhu: “I heard that it’s a historical drama. The female lead is the movie queen, Li Yue! The role that the director gave Jiang Yu is the second female lead. It’s also very important!”

Lu Qi: “Hey, Hey! Dai Zhu, whose fan are you now?”

Dai Zhu: “I know! I’m a fan of Jiang Yu! But this series is really a big production! Many investors have invested in it!”

Lu Qi said to Jiang Yu: “Little Yu, what do you think?”

New drama resource? The female lead is the movie queen?

Then this was really a great opportunity.

Jiang Yu replied: “This is a good opportunity. I will work hard and definitely won’t let you guys down.”

Her words were like a tranquilizer, instantly calming everyone in the group.

At this moment, a director called Jiang Yu. “Hello? Jiang Yu? I’m the Executive Director of the new series, ‘Ruyi’.”

Jiang Yu politely replied, “Hello, Director.”

“Filming will start in a few days, so we need you to come to the production team in the next few days. Let’s meet and get to know each other. Then, we can discuss and revise the script together.”

“Alright,” Jiang Yu readily agreed.

Jiang Yu and the director made an appointment for next Monday.

On Monday, Jiang Yu got dressed and took a car to the production team.

‘When they arrived at the set, the director first introduced the female lead, Li Yue, and the male lead, Hu Xuan. Then, he introduced the second female lead, Jiang Yu, and the second male lead, He Zhen.

Hu Xuan was the winner of this year’s Best Actor award.

For the sake of the popularity of the drama, the director chose Li Yue and Hu Xuan to star in the drama.

“Everyone, read the script first. If there’s anything inappropriate, bring it up. When the time comes, we’ll change it together.”

The director gave everyone a pile of paper. “When you read it, you have to figure out the character that you’re going to play.”

Jiang Yu flipped open the script and began to read it carefully.

The female lead of ‘Ruyi’ was called Ruyi, but her life was not like her name. Instead, she didn’t have things her way all the time.

First, there was an accident at home and she was reduced to a beggar. Then, she was framed for stealing and caught by the officials.

Because she refused to confess, she was beaten to death by the bailiffs.

After her death, her soul unexpectedly attached itself to a jade pendant and she transformed into a human form with the help of the spiritual energy of Heaven and earth.

She used this new body and the ability she obtained by accident to avenge herself.

Jiang Yu was still carefully reading the script when Li Yue threw the script on the table and said, “I can’t play this role.”

The director hurriedly asked, “What’s wrong?”

Li Yue said, “I can’t act as a beggar. Although I want to act in some other roles to change everyone’s impression of my character, I really can’t act as a beggar. So I hope that the screenwriter can change the previous scenes of the female lead.”

The screenwriter looked troubled and said, “But if you change it like this, the workload will be huge. And after you change it like this, the roles of the female and male supporting roles, and even the male lead’s scenes, will change.”

Li Yue still insisted on letting the scriptwriter change the roles. “I still say the same thing. If you change it, I can act. If you don’t change it, I can’t act.”

“This…” The scriptwriter turned his gaze to the director for help..
