Chapter 90: Yang Le’s Position

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In movies, in order to convince the audience, post-production dubbing was often used.

For example, if an actor’s performance was not good enough, they would change to professional performance audio later.

However, Director Jiang Wen was a director who had very strict requirements for his movie. This strictness was also reflected in his requirements for the actors. He would try his best to let the actors use the original voice.

Therefore, when Chu Yuan recommended Lu Zhen to Jiang Wen, he first asked if she knew how to play the piano. If Lu Zhen did not know how to play the piano, Jiang Wen would have rejected Chu Yuan’s recommendation.

For someone who knew how to play the piano, after a few months of training, they could perform a song to an almost professional level.

However, if Lu Zhen did not know how to play the piano, she would not be able to do that.

“Xu Rui can do that too,” the young man said hesitantly. “She studied music and learned piano for a few years when she was young. Teacher Man, you also said that she’s very professional.”

Man Li nodded. “Xu Rui has an innate advantage in this aspect.” Man Li looked at the young woman again. “Lele, what do you think?”

Yang Le pushed her glasses up the bridge of her nose. “I’m inclined to Xu Rui. She’s a newcomer, but she’s very talented in acting. Lu Zhen is already an old actress. I think she lacks a natural charm. This is something she can’t compare to Xu Rui.”

Although the young man could not understand Yang Let s professional comment, he felt that it made sense. However, he really could not forget Lu

Zhen’s performance just now. “Aiya, I’m so conflicted. Then I’ll give up the vote.

I think they’re both very good. Director Jiang Wen can choose anyone.”

The young man was sent by the investors. The investors did not think much of such a small role. They even handed the right to choose a role to the director.

“At the moment, Yang Le supports Xu Rui.” Jiang Wen smiled and looked at Man Li. “Sister Man, what do you think?”

“Zhou Jie is right.” Man Li agreed with the young man. She patted Jiang Wen and smiled kindly. “You’ve been troubled by this role for so long. Today, there are two actors who fit the role. No matter which one you choose, they will perform well.”

Man Li was actually neutral? Yang Le raised her eyebrows and said calmly, “Then let me add one more thing. The reason why I’m leaning towards Xu Rui is because I want to give the newbie a chance. Moreover, I’m hiding my selfishness. If Xu Rui plays this role, I’ll suggest the company sign her.” Man Li laughed. “You’re very honest. Newbies should really thank a senior like you.”

Yang Le smiled, but another thought flashed in her mind. Actually, she wasn’t completely telling the truth.

Yang Le was the manager of the entertainment company where the female lead, Pan Miao, was. She was a manager before she got to her current position.

Currently, she was in charge of hundreds of artists and managers in the company.

Pan Miao was an actress that the company had spent a lot of effort nurturing in the past few years. She walked the path of luxury and her goal was to become a top female star in the film industry.

Yang Le’s identity determined her position.

Jiang Wen had a relatively free right to choose the “back view goddess”, but he still went through the process of communicating with Pan Miao’s manager.

After Pan Miao’s manager told Yang Le, Yang Le felt that although this role did not appear much, it was very important. After the movie was broadcast, it might be compared to Pan Miao. Therefore, Yang Le suggested participating in the selection of the “back-view goddess”.

In the movie 99 Love Letters, the relationship between the back-view goddess and the heroine is somewhat opposing.

The former was the goddess that the male protagonist had a crush on for ten years, while the latter was the partner that the male protagonist ultimately chose to accompany for life. One was his first love and one was his partner. This was also an emotional choice that many people faced in reality.

For this role, Yang Le had no other requirements. She only had one — that actor must not steal Pan Miao’s limelight after the movie was broadcasted.

Therefore, Yang Le hoped that Xu Rui would play this role in the end.

Firstly, Xu Rui was a newcomer and was not famous. Even if she hyped up the movie during the broadcast, it would not be as popular as Pan Miao.

Secondly, Xu Rui’s appearance was not the kind that could be remembered at a glance. She was not that recognizable and was not much different from Pan Miao in terms of appearance.

However, Lu Zhen was different. Even those who defamed her all day could not deny this woman’s beauty. For a period of time, the greatest mockery of Lu

Zhen’s appearance was, “She’s just a vase..”
