When The Top Hacker Becomes A Female Supporting Character, She Amazes The World

62 Acting Competition

Lu Zhu? Yu Han immediately recalled the drunk-driving girl from last night when she heard this name. So she was Wei Wei’s cousin. No wonder their styles of doing things were so similar. Looking at Wei Wei, she probably didn’t know that the cousin she had been waiting for had already entered the police station and become a banned artist, directly cutting off her acting career.

On the other hand, Wei Wei was still “reasonably arguing”. Although she despised this small budget web drama, she actually knew very well that CEO Zhao’s ability was limited. It was already not easy for him to invest in her drama and let her be the first female lead. Otherwise, with her current popularity, it was impossible for her to get the first female lead role.

Since she had no choice but to act in it and it was rare for her to have a say in the production team, of course, she had to try her best to get benefits for herself. Hence, she took the initiative to promise her cousin that she would be the second female lead.

She had mentioned this to Director Bai Chao earlier, but Bai Chao did not say if he would agree or not. Hence, he pretended to be stupid and looked at CEO Zhao, the person who could really make the decision. “The first female lead has already been confirmed, but the second female lead hasn’t. Aren’t we auditioning for her now?”

Seeing that Bai Chao didn’t fall for her tricks, Wei Wei became a little angry. She thought to herself. You had the guts and wouldn’t listen to me, but could you not listen to CEO Zhao? Hence, she hurriedly wheedled to CEO Zhao. “CEO Zhao, you’ve seen my cousin, Lu Zhu, too. She’s an outstanding student from The Central Academy of Drama. She just acted in a movie and is already quite famous now.”

She hooked her finger on CEO Zhao. “She likes this drama very much and wants to act in it. I know it’s against the rules, but I thought that since you invested in this drama, the production team would have to listen to you. It’s very simple for you to arrange a second female lead role for her. Hence, I agreed to it first.”

He had already secretly set up the first female lead’s role. This was just the second female lead’s role in a web drama. CEO Zhao did not think that there was a big problem, so he agreed without thinking.

At this moment, Bai Chao openly objected. “I don’t agree.”

After being refuted so bluntly, the smile on CEO Zhao’s face immediately disappeared. He said calmly, “It’s just a second female lead’s role. It’s the same no matter who plays the role. Director, is there a need for you to be so serious?”

How could that be the same? What Bai Chao hated the most was outsiders guiding experts. He did not give in at all. “CEO Zhao, I’ve already regressed in the first female lead role. If I give in about Miss Wei, who doesn’t have much acting skills, I definitely won’t give in to the second female lead. Otherwise, I really won’t be able to film this drama.”

Wei Wei couldn’t take it anymore when Bai Chao said that. “What do you mean? What do you mean by I don’t have any acting skills? I’ve been filming for several years, and no director has ever said that I don’t have any acting skills. How dare a third-rate director like you say that?”

Wei Wei looked at Yu Han in disdain. “I don’t have acting skills, but does she have acting skills as a newcomer? Director, are you blind?”

Bai Chao thought to himself, Don’t you know if you have any acting skills? In reality, Wei Wei really didn’t. “Her acting skills are naturally better than yours.”

Wei Wei was unconvinced. “You’re being biased and targeting me. That’s why you’re so stubborn.”

Bai Chao couldn’t be bothered to continue arguing with her. He pointed at Yu Han and said to her, “If you’re unhappy, you can act with her. It’s the scene where she auditioned just now. You’ll act as the first female lead and she’ll act as the second female lead. Let’s see which of you can act better than the other.”

Yu Han, who was left aside, was speechless when her name was suddenly called. Why did she have to be implicated in their internal argument?

“So be it. Who am I afraid of?” Seeing Yu Han’s unwilling expression, Wei Wei sneered. “Why? Are you afraid? If you’re afraid and don’t dare to act, pack your things as soon as possible and get out of here. Don’t get in the way here.”

Yu Han smiled. “You’re not afraid even though you’ve been in the industry for a few years. As a newcomer, I don’t have to be afraid even more.”

Since neither of them had any objections, the director gave them a few minutes to prepare. He let them familiarize themselves with the script first and start acting when they were ready.

Yu Han had just read the script, so she did not have to spend any effort to memorize it. Wei Wei was different. Before this, her understanding of the script only restricted to the two pages she had flipped through outside the door, so she did not know what kind of story the script was telling.
