Chapter 2757: Twins
Editor: Henyee Translations
They were all insignificant things. Qiao Weiyang solemnly accepted them.
Only then did those people smile and calmly disperse.
After returning to the car, Qiao Weiyang looked at the things she had received, and her expression relaxed.
When they arrived at Zhuojing Villa, Su Zhuoqian asked the butler to bring the eggs to the kitchen to cook and gave the fruits to Jingyun and Xiao Bao.
She also told them the origin of these things.
The two little guys cherished the apples as if they were eating something precious.
After the hospital incident came to an end, Qiao Weiyang began to prepare for a new movie, Stalker.
Qiao Weiyang’s new movie received attention from all sides.
She was financing the movie, and she would also have a cameo role
The current Qiao Weiyang was not only the center of the entertainment industry but also the center of social news. Her every move was being watched.
The director of this movie was her old friend, Cheng Yijia.
Cheng Yijia had made some achievements in the film industry in the past two years. In a short period of time, she was no longer the young director who had just entered the industry.
In a cafe.
Cheng Yijia stirred the brown liquid and smiled confidently. “Weiyang, we’re already halfway through the preparations. Do you have any considerations for the actors?”
“Let’s go ahead with the public casting and look for the most suitable candidate.”
“Okay, then I’ll make the selection with you.” Cheng Yijia raised her coffee cup. “Let our new movie be a success.”
“Definitely.” Qiao Weiyang smiled and raised her cup.
After the news of the public casting was spread, the actors who wanted to audition flocked to the stage.
Qiao Weiyang’s ability had long been unanimously recognized by everyone. Her works were also popular on the market.
The task of collecting the cast registration forms was left to the casting director who had been working with Cheng Yijia.
At the same time, Qiao Weiyang received a call from Director Cheng.
“Weiyang, I’ll hand over the script to you this time. You can do whatever you want. If there’s anything you need to change, you can change it yourself. After so many years, there must be some content that doesn’t match the current market environment.” Although Cheng Tong’s illness was much better, he still spoke slowly and earnestly.
“Director Cheng, don’t worry. This is your hard work over the years. I couldn’t act in your production before, but I definitely won’t let you down this time.”
This was the work that Cheng Tong had planned to shoot a long time ago.
At that time, it was because of this matter that Qiao Weiyang was greatly criticized.
Now that Director Cheng had taken out this work again and handed it to Qiao Weiyang and Cheng Yijia to handle, it could be considered a happy ending for everything Qiao Weiyang had done for this movie.
At the audition.
That day, the number of actors who came for the audition reached an all-time record. The statuses of these actors were also impressive.
There were also countless reporters who came.
It was as if this was not an audition but a grand annual ceremony in the entertainment industry.
The outside world naturally paid a lot of attention to it and waited for an outcome.
In the words of a fan, ‘We’re waiting for the role announcement like an old father waiting outside the delivery room.’
It was also Cheng Yijia’s first time facing such an unprecedented audition.
She looked at Qiao Weiyang. “You’re really popular. We’re sure to save a lot of publicity fees. Now, I’m just worried anyone who has to do with the entertainment industry will know about Stalker.”
“It might not be a bad situation.” Qiao Weiyang nodded.
Soon, the artistes who were nominated began to enter the venue one by one for the audition.
The male lead this time was a narcotics police officer. In order to capture drug dealers, he did not hesitate to take a risk and go deep into the enemy’s nest to be an undercover agent.
After a few hards.h.i.+ps, he finally captured the drug lord and completed his goal.
However, during the process of being an undercover agent, he helplessly became addicted to drugs.
In order to quit drugs, he suspended his work and kept fighting against drug addiction. He was even misunderstood and slandered by people he didn’t know. His family was also blamed.
That was what a real police officer that Director Cheng knew back then had gone through. Director Cheng really wanted to put this story on the screen. After preparing for so many years, he finally had the chance now.
This role was undoubtedly very challenging. Many artistes would probably find it difficult to encounter such a complete, complicated, full, and heartbreaking role in their lives.
Therefore, the compet.i.tion was very intense.
As the main figures today, Cheng Yijia and Qiao Weiyang had always looked very calm.
The artistes who came for the audition showed no emotions on their faces, and it was difficult to guess what they were thinking.
THen, Xu w.a.n.gzhi appeared.
He had lost a lot of weight and looked haggard. The veins on his exposed wrists and ankles were bulging. His expression was filled with fatigue, but his eyes were very determined.
He nailed the vibe of the character.
Cheng Yijia asked Qiao Weiyang in a low voice, “Is this Xu w.a.n.gzhi?”
He looked completely different from the photos
Xu w.a.n.gzhi was more than 1.8 meters tall, and his official weight had always been 130 kilograms. The man in front of them probably didn’t even weigh 100 kilograms. His clothes and pants were sagging as if they were hanging on him.
“It’s him.” Qiao Weiyang nodded.
“Okay, Xu w.a.n.gzhi, let’s begin.”
According to the rules, he had to draw a scene from the box. c
The scene he chose was of when he was tortured by his addiction after successfully quitting drugs and had no choice but to take drugs again.
The performance began.
He controlled his entire state very well. After being tortured and aspirated, the joy, guilt, sadness, and hopelessness in his eyes made people forget that he was Xu w.a.n.gzhi. A living character appeared in front of everyone.
Cheng Yijia looked satisfied and said in a low voice, “It’s him!”
After saying that, she remembered that she had yet to ask Qiao Weiyang for her opinion.
She turned to look at Qiao Weiyang and saw Qiao Weiyang’s expression that also signaled her approval.
She relayed the news to her a.s.sistant and asked him to go out and inform the artistes outside. Those who were not chosen could make other preparations without wasting their time.
Knowing that Xu w.a.n.gzhi had been chosen, everyone shook their heads and left in disappointment.
Then, there were other roles to select.
When it came to choosing the second male lead, there were three candidates left.
One of them was the son of another great director, Chengyu.
The status of Chengyu’s father was not inferior to Cheng Chaopin back then.
Chengyu had undergone his father’s training, so his acting skills this time were alright.
However, the other two candidates also had their own advantages.
Cheng Yijia and Qiao Weiyang decided to have them audition once more.
They chose a scene that required another person to act with them.
“Director Cheng, can I get someone to act with me?” Chengyu asked.
