NOVEL NEXT Chapter 374: The Two-faced Zhao Min
His gaze swept over Wu Naifu and Lang Ren's faces respectively, then turned to them and said, "What I'm saying is true, I really feel that if we can't find anyone else, I can give it a try."
"At least now, I can give it a try."
The utterly serious expression on Wang Ye's face made both Lang Ren and Wu Naifu realize that Wang Ye was indeed eager to try.
For a moment, Lang Ren and Wu Naifu's brows furrowed deeply.
They believed in Wang Ye, whether it was his character or his business and medical skills, he was very strong.
But the key issue was that they didn't believe in Wang Ye's acting skills.
Based on their understanding of Wang Ye, he had never been involved in acting before, and now, to directly include him in their TV drama and moreover cast him as the male lead, they genuinely feared that Wang Ye would ruin the show the moment he stepped on set.
Admittedly.
Wang Ye's acting skills were high.
If Wang Ye appeared on the scene, it would definitely attract a large number of fans, and online, he was also called the "New National Husband," enjoying immense popularity.
By then, the buzz around the TV drama would certainly not be low.
But if the acting was poor, it would definitely give ammunition to critics and be reported by media with ulterior motives, which would be a huge blow to a hit TV drama.
As Lang Ren and Wu Naifu were contemplating how to more tactfully reject Wang Ye, he spoke up, "Don't worry, I know what you're thinking right now."
"Let me show you my acting first. If you think my acting is acceptable, then I'll join in the filming of this drama. If I'm not up to par, I won't take on the male lead role because I still have to maintain my image as the perfect male lead, after all."
As Wang Ye reached this point in his speech, he made a small joke, causing Lang Ren and Wu Naifu to not know what to say in response.
After all, since Wang Ye had already put it that way, letting him try was not an issue.
"Alright, since Boss Wang wants to give it a shot, let him try. But Boss Wang, don't expect us to cut you slack just because you're rich," Wu Naifu joked as well, but Wang Ye knew that Wu Naifu's words were meant seriously.
"I'll make a call and summon Zhao Min so you two can practice a scene together." Having said that, Lang Ren immediately called Zhao Min over.
Wang Ye watched Lang Ren call Zhao Min, his mind also pondering.
Last night, after Zhao Min got drunk, she had said some things to him. He wondered if she remembered them. If Zhao Min didn't remember, what kind of reaction would she have today?
Soon enough.
Zhao Min knocked on the door, then opened the room and walked in.
On seeing Wang Ye, Zhao Min felt somewhat embarrassed, the shame made her feel as if she could dig out a three-bedroom apartment on the spot with her toes.
Although she had spoken those words to Wang Ye last night while drunk, the crux of the matter was that this morning, sobering up, she hadn't forgotten what she had said to Wang Ye, but rather remembered everything clearly in her heart.
So just now, although she saw Wang Ye coming over, she didn't greet him because she didn't know how to face him.
Even though her heart was filled with embarrassment, Zhao Min's face remained calm, as though nothing had happened at all.
She had already decided how to deal with this situation.
Pretend to have amnesia!
She simply didn't remember anything from last night at all!
Everything I said last night when I was drunk was blurted out in my drunken state, now that I'm sober, I don't remember any of it.
You have to understand that Zhao Min is a powerhouse actress.
As long as she wants to play a part, Zhao Min doesn't believe Wang Ye could see through her act.
And Wang Ye, after Zhao Min came in, had been sizing her up, wanting to gauge her condition.
However.
After observing Zhao Min for a while, Wang Ye found that there wasn't anything wrong with her at all.
Her facial expressions, very natural.
Upon entering, after greeting him with her eyes, she directly turned her stunning gaze onto Lang Ren and asked, "Teacher Lang, did you call me here for something?"
Lang Ren glanced at Wang Ye, "This is the situation, the male actor you were supposed to act with has run into an issue, so when Boss Wang came over just now, I discussed it with him."
"Boss Wang suggested that if things really don't work out, he will play the male lead himself."
Lang Ren finished this statement.
In his eyes, there was a sense of helplessness, and he felt a sense of absurdity while saying it.
Letting someone who has never been involved in this industry take on the lead role in a TV drama seems ludicrous no matter how you look at it.
"Wang Ye?"
Zhao Min gave Wang Ye a look.
Although Zhao Min knew that Wang Ye had always learned things very quickly since he was young, and the things Wang Yifeng taught them felt very difficult for them to learn individually.
Wang Ye, on the other hand, managed to learn everything their senior sisters had learned, and did so very swiftly without any sign of struggling.
But the issue was, this was about acting.
Something Wang Ye had not studied.
Moreover, Zhao Min knew that when it comes to acting, if you want to display good acting skills, it really depends on individual talent.
So, Wang Ye suddenly wanting to act in this play was quite surprising to Zhao Min.
Her mouth twitched a few times, it wasn't that she didn't trust Wang Ye, but rather... okay, she just didn't believe that Wang Ye could have any good performance in acting.
"So... you agreed?"
Zhao Min felt conflicted. Although she did indeed want Wang Ye to play the male lead and act in a scene with her little junior brother, the key issue was that Wang Ye simply had no acting skills.
"No."
Wu Naifu shook his head, "Boss Wang just said to first try out his acting skills. If his acting is acceptable, then he can play the male lead, but if his acting isn't up to par, then forget it."
"Alright then."
Zhao Min rolled her beautiful eyes at Wang Ye.
Her little junior brother was really wasting their time!
With no experience in acting whatsoever, he's surely going to fail!
