Yu Wei and Liu Shishi did not wait for long. Soon, the other executives of Tangren Entertainment had arrived, and the meeting officially began.
The person presiding over the meeting was Tang Ren Entertainment's Vice President, Wu Hui.
The meeting quickly went straight to the point. When Wu Hui asked Yu Wei if he had any suitable scripts, Yu Wei took out the script for " Startling Step ".
After knowing that it was only a script written by Liu Shishi's friend, Wu Hui's brows furrowed.
In his opinion, the truly capable screenwriters had already been recruited by big companies.
Although Liu Shishi was very popular now, she was still very inexperienced in the industry. It was impossible for her to know any capable screenwriters.
The friend she was talking about was probably just a newbie who used Liu Shishi's connections to promote the script.
It was impossible for such a script to be written well.
However, Liu Shishi had a good relationship with Tang Entertainment and had just signed an agreement. They had to give her face.
Similar to Yu Wei's reaction, when Wu Hui first started reading the script, he was also nonchalant.
But soon, his expression turned serious.
After briefly browsing through it, Wu Hui nodded with a praising tone and said,"This script is not bad."
Liu Shishi was delighted when she heard this, but she immediately heard Wu Hui continue,"
" It's just that…there wasn't such a time-travel theme in the country in the past. I wonder how the market will react…"
"Shishi, you're currently on the rise. You need to be steady. If the response to this drama was not good and the audience did not accept it, then your popularity would immediately drop.”
Wu Hui thought for a moment and said,"How about this? We'll buy your friend's script and let other newcomers act in it after a period of time.”
"Let's find another veteran screenwriter to write a script for you.”
Liu Shishi was stunned for a moment before she panicked.
From Wu Hui's words, he wanted to do him a favor and sell the script as a bet.
When the time came to promote a newcomer, he would take it out and shoot it.
It had to be said that this Vice President of Tang Ren Entertainment, Wu Hui, knew how to be a good person.
But the problem was…Liu Shishi really wanted to film this script!
She really, really liked the story that Cao Yu had written, and she really, really liked the female lead in the script.
She was so fascinated by this script that she couldn't fall asleep the entire night. Just because she couldn't see the ending, it made her heart ache.
She had a feeling that she was the female lead in the script. The female lead was her, and she had to play it!
She couldn't bear to give this role to someone else.
Moreover, she had another thought that even she herself did not notice.
She was very anxious. Deep down, she hoped that this script could be shot as soon as possible.
If this 'Startling Step' was really filmed and became a hit…
As a screenwriter, Cao Yu would at least become famous in the scriptwriter world!
Because before him, no one had ever written such a time-travel drama!
If the Tang bought it just to keep it for themselves, who knew when they would auction it? It might be too late by then.
"No, CEO Wu, I have to act in this script!”
Liu Shishi blurted out in a moment of desperation.
At this moment, everyone looked at Liu Shishi in surprise.
In everyone's eyes, Liu Shishi had always been as calm as water and aloof from worldly affairs. This was the first time they had seen her put on such a tough stance.
After Liu Shishi said that, she was also stunned and a little embarrassed.
She didn't know why she was so interested in this script.
It wasn't like she hadn't come across a good script before, nor was she the type of person who would be ambitious and insist on getting a good script. Perhaps it was because this script was written by Cao Yu?
Liu Shishi felt her face heat up.
However, now was not the time to think about these things. As the saying goes, there is no turning back. Since she had already said the opposite, she could not and did not want to give in.
She really had to shoot this script today!
After taking a deep breath and adjusting her emotions, Liu Shishi continued to speak to Wu Hui,
"CEO Wu, please consider it. I'm very confident in this script. I believe that if it's filmed, it will definitely win the approval of the audience.”
"Moreover, I'm very confident in myself. I feel that I can definitely act as the female lead of this script well.”
"This…"
Wu Hui started to hesitate.
He really did not expect that the usually docile Liu Shishi would suddenly make such a request, and her attitude was so unyielding.
To be honest, Wu Hui also liked the script of " Startling Step by Step ".
After all, he had been in the film and television industry for many years. He had good judgment and could tell that this was a good story.
However, his duty was to ensure the interests of Tang Entertainment, so he could not take risks.
Tangren Entertainment had just signed a gambling agreement with Liu Shishi. If Liu Shishi's popularity was damaged and she could not complete the agreement, Tangren Entertainment would not benefit either.
"Director Yu, what do you think?" Wu Hui looked at Yu Wei and asked.
"President Wu, I understand your concerns.”
Yu Wei said," But there will always be risks. If you keep following the old rules, you won't make any progress.”
"Like Shishi, I have confidence in this script.”
