Chapter 506 Was Looked Down Upon By Others

Yang Qiu had a high status in the film industry and had Zhang Mou as her backer. Hence, she never took other actors seriously.

The status of the film industry was higher than that of the television drama industry. Thus, in the face of a director of a television drama, she did not show any courtesy at all.

Originally, she had intended to focus on developing herself further in the film industry. However, Zhang Mou had discovered that television dramas were more popular than movies recently, so she had split her focus to both sides.

With her previous fame and Zhang Mou’s position in the directing industry, she had been sent directly to Zhengyang’s production team.

In fact, Yang Qiu had good acting skills and temperament. Even without relying on Zhang Mou, she was still capable of getting the role.

However, she had a terrible attitude. She was very arrogant and always looked down on others.

In addition, although her appearance was suitable for the big screen, it was not suitable for television dramas. Therefore, she had settled for second best and accepted the role of the second female lead.

Yang Qiu thought that even if she was not the female lead, it would not be an impossible situation, as long as the actress who played the female lead had a higher status than her.

She had not expected it to be Fang Mo’er who had become famous through controversial

rumors.

She was instantly unhappy.

Being asked to play the second female lead while Fang Mo’er played the female lead was like giving Fang Mo’er a boost.

The director said impatiently, “Miss Yang, although Miss Fang Mo’er is a rising star, her acting skills are unquestionable. We also considered many aspects before deciding that she was suitable to play the female lead.”

“Then let’s try her out first. At the very least, let us have a look at her acting skills as the female lead character. Don’t just let her be chosen because of the negative news surrounding her and the high level of her popularity.” Yang Qiu crossed her arms in front of her chest as she direct her gaze filled with provocation towards Fang Mo’er.

In her mind, television dramas were not as good and far from being as glamorous as a movie.

However, Director Zhang Mou had insisted that she take both markets into account. However, with her status, normal television drama productions were not qualified to invite her to act for them.

Only then had Zhang Mo managed to find the Zhengyang production team for her.

She had initially thought that the female lead role would definitely be hers. However, she had not expected the director to say that her image was not suitable after seeing her and had asked her to be the second female lead instead.

Director Zhang Mou had requested her to take accept this role, so she could not leave. She was very dissatisfied with this.

When Fang Mo’er saw this, she finally understood why the director had still asked her to come for an audition even though he had already made the decision to cast her in the role.

She took the initiative to continue the conversation, “Director, since you asked me to come to audition, what would you like me to do?”

Her words were very tactful and immediately relieved the director of his awkwardness.

“Miss Fang, let’s try the scene where the male and female leads are in the middle of a conflict.” The director had watched Fang Mo’er in “Hua Mulan” and was very satisfied with her acting skills.

Hence, he had chosen a random scene as her audition scene.

However, Yang Qiu did not agree. She objected, “Director, this is a medical drama. We should focus on the doctors as they are treating the patients and saving lives. It’s not good to just focus on the emotional scenes.”

The director’s face changed as Yang Qiu insisted on pressing forward.

Based on his usual personality, no matter how important an actor was, he would never allow them to talk so much nonsense.

However, Yang Qiu was different. She had personally been sent over by Director Zhang Mou. How could he ignore Director Zhang Mou’s status?

He had won an international director’s award and had a lot of say in the film world.

Even if he felt like losing his temper, he would still have to endure it in the face of Zhang Mou.

With such a person backing Yang Qiu, even he did not dare to fight back too much.

Fang Mo’er did not mind. She smiled faintly and said to Yang Qiu, “Miss Yang is right. In that case, other than the part where the male and female lead have a conflict, I’ll just add the part where the female lead performs the surgery. Is that alright?”

Because Fang Mo’er’s tone was sincere, Yang Qiu did not know what to say now, no matter how much she wanted to make things difficult for her.

After all, she was not a director. A normal actor would only need to audition with one scene, but Fang Mo’er was now having to audition with two scenes.

Hence, she gave a cold snort to express her agreement but did not say anything else.

Seeing that Yang Qiu had agreed, Fang Mo’er changed her tone and stopped smiling. Instead, she said firmly, “Then if my acting skills pass the test, I will need you to please apologize to me, Miss Yang. The negative news about me was just rumors. It has already been clarified and has nothing to do with me. I relied on my own strength to act in the role, not the popularity of rumors.”

Seeing the sudden change in Fang Mo’er’s attitude, a chill ran down her spine.

Yang Qiu was shocked.

For a moment, she did not react, but under Fang Mo’er’s cold gaze, she instinctively nodded.

Upon receiving her agreement, Fang Mo’er began to smile again.
