Huayu: Rising from Tencent

For small production teams, auditions usually proceed relatively quickly and can be completed smoothly in two or three days.

The production team of "The Romance of Tiger and Rose" was no exception. After screening, the main and supporting roles were all finalized.

Following Shen Ci's instructions, Li Eryun sent the actors' detailed information to the Sugar Man Company via fax.

Over the past few days, Cai Yinong has gradually accepted reality.

Tencent Video is an unshakeable behemoth, and she really doesn't dare to completely break ties with it.

If you can't afford to offend them, you can only swallow this bitter pill.

At that moment, Cai Yinong looked at the actors' information on the paper, and without saying a word, she suddenly tore the paper apart.

A bunch of obscure celebrities, she'd never heard of any of them!

Inside the Sugar Man Company, artists such as Han Dongjun, Chen Yao, and Jin Chen all heard about this.

When the three met privately, they couldn't help but bring up the matter and all felt that it was quite dramatic.

Speaking of which, Cai Yinong previously tried to recommend two actresses to Tencent, wanting to replace Nazha in the role of Chen Qianqian.

Chen Yao and Jin Chen also hoped to get this opportunity, but unfortunately they didn't succeed, which left them somewhat disappointed.

As for Naza himself, he has been reluctant to go out these past few days and has been staying at home all day.

In her spare time, she would pick up the script of "The Romance of Tiger and Rose" and read it carefully.

Shen Ci is a man of his word; he delivered the script to Tangren a few days ago.

Holding the script, Naza could tell from its thickness that Shen Ci hadn't lied to her about this.

"The Romance of Tiger and Rose" is indeed a female-centric drama!

She calmed down and studied the script carefully, and found that it was really good, with a plot full of unexpected contrasts and humor.

Unfortunately, it was a small production, far from the big-budget production she had hoped for.

Naza had been hoping that Shen Ci would take the initiative to contact her.

When she first realized that she seemed to have been deceived, she was indeed filled with grievances and felt that she had been fooled.

But as time went by, she gradually realized that time can fade everything.

Regardless of Shen Ci's true nature, it is undeniable that he has a powerful background.

Once she came to her senses, Naza knew that to survive in the entertainment industry, she had to know how to weigh the pros and cons.

We cannot sever ties with Shen Ci because of this.

Although she still felt resentful, she hoped that Shen Ci could give her a reasonable explanation.

Perhaps if Shen Ci could explain, she would be able to vent her anger.

However, as the days went by, she waited for a long time...

The phone never rang, and Shen Ci didn't send a single WeChat message!

That guy couldn't hold back any longer!

She struggled internally for a long time, her fingers hesitating on the phone screen, before finally sending Shen Ci a WeChat message.

She didn't type anything, but sent a cute bear emoji; the little bear was adorable.

At this moment, Shen Ci was chatting with "Seven" and did not notice the message from Na Zhafa.

A few days ago, local media in Hangzhou reported on the summit, and Zhang Ruonan happened to see it.

She was torn; on one hand, she was filled with curiosity and longing for the entertainment industry, but on the other hand, she was somewhat timid.

But Shen Ci was the first person she knew who had close ties to the entertainment industry.

Coupled with Shen Ci's outstanding looks, Zhang Ruonan was filled with curiosity and couldn't help but feel a little restless.

"Do you really think I'm suited to be a star?" Zhang Ruonan sent a message cautiously, feeling both expectant and nervous.

Shen Ci quickly replied with two words: "Really."

Zhang Ruonan quickly replied, "Thank you for the compliment."

Shen Ci: "Are you still working part-time as a model?"

Zhang Ruonan: "Yes, I want to save more money."

Shen Ci: "Won't your family pay for your college education?"

Zhang Ruonan's heart tightened, and she quickly explained:

"Yes, don't misunderstand, I...want to have some...money of my own..."

She was afraid that Shen Ci would misunderstand, so she racked her brains to organize her thoughts, and it was almost like writing a short essay when she typed it out.

As Shen Ci read her explanation, he thought to himself, "People often care most about what they lack most."

Shen Ci: "How much can a part-time model earn?"

Zhang Ruonan: "It's alright, but it can't compare to being a celebrity."

Shen Ci: "To become a star, you need to be an adult first."

Upon seeing this sentence, Zhang Ruonan gritted her teeth, pondering to herself, "What does 'adulthood' mean?"

Does that mean you can only become a star after you've reached adulthood?

After sending the message, Shen Ci waited for a while but didn't receive a reply from Zhang Ruonan. Instead, she received a phone call.

The call was from Naza. Seeing that Shen Ci hadn't replied to her messages, Naza really couldn't hold back any longer!

After the call connected, Naza had so much to say, but when the words reached her lips, she didn't know where to begin.

"So you finally decided to call me?"

Shen Ci took the initiative to speak, and his first words were a joke, trying to ease the slightly awkward atmosphere.

Naza relaxed slightly, chuckled softly, and said, "What are you saying, Mr. Shen!"

Shen Ci said, "I thought you would say you wouldn't act."

Naza really didn't want to act, but reality left her with no choice.

She felt this might be an opportunity, so she gathered her emotions and started to act aggrieved.

"Of course I'd act it out. It's just that, Mr. Shen, you should have explained things more clearly back then."

Naza's aggrieved tone turned pitiful again, and she said in a coquettish manner, "President Shen, you can't do that in the future."

This tone made Shen Ci feel a little embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, Naza was so open-minded, and with her coquettish manner, Shen Ci's mouth unconsciously turned into a pout.

Naza, recalling Cai Yinong's actions during the phone call, immediately added:

"K-jie contacted you because she wanted what was best for me. If I had known from the beginning, I definitely wouldn't have let K-jie call."

"It's alright." Shen Ci thought that Nazha's attitude was really good, and his liking for her increased even more.

Naza sensed the softening in Shen Ci's tone and thought to herself that with her acting skills, it would be a disservice if she didn't win a Best Actress award!

"How about this," Shen Ci pondered for a moment, "I'll think of you first when there are suitable projects in the future."

"Really?" Naza was now half-believing Shen Ci's words, but she pretended to be surprised.

Shen Ci said seriously, "Yes, I'm not lying to you this time."

Naza didn't reply, but instead asked, "On the day of the photoshoot, will President Shen treat me to dinner?"

"Okay, send me a message when you arrive in Beijing."

Shen Ci did not refuse, and Nazha's magnanimous behavior increased his goodwill towards her.

"It's a deal then," Naza said. In any case, befriending Shen Ci would definitely benefit her career.

The two chatted for a while longer before hanging up the phone.

Shen Ci replied to Zhang Ruonan with a few messages, then turned off his phone; he had important matters to attend to.

He believes that Cai Yinong should really learn from Nazha.

One should be generous in life!
