Has Big Shot Fallen in Love Today?-Chapter 659: A Red-faced Confidante

Chapter 659: Chapter 659: A Red-faced Confidante
The audition ended, and Sheng Tang quickly received the script sent to her by the producers.
"Invincible Life" is a comedy film with a bit of sci-fi flavor. The male lead is a basketball coach at a club, and the story revolves around his sometimes on, sometimes off sixth sense. Using this, he creates many hilarious situations, drives out various disloyal elements in the basketball team, and ultimately leads the whole team to win the national championship.
In this film, the female roles are not heavily involved. The male lead has a love interest he is pursuing; Sheng Tang’s character, Xuanxuan, is his confidante and also the female manager at the club.
She is beautiful and capable, but not cold. She possesses a touch of grace and maturity. With her keen vision and trust in the male lead, she is expected to be quite captivating.
In contrast, the female lead in this film, although more significant than Sheng Tang’s role, is nowhere near as impressive.
The female lead’s role seems too cliché and flat, but it’s still easy to perform.
At the beginning of November, the crew was successfully formed, and script discussions and character analyses began.
Sheng Tang had already written her character analysis.
At the script meeting, Sheng Tang met the two male leads, one female lead, and two important supporting male actors.
The main male lead, Ding Ruifan, is Sheng Tang’s primary co-star. He is thirty-nine years old and not particularly handsome. He looks slightly slimmer than on screen and is very approachable.
These prominent actors are quite well-known. They had interacted one way or another before, and quickly became familiar; while Sheng Tang and another important supporting actor were complete newcomers.
The others were not familiar with them, so they didn’t greet them impulsively.
The producer and director were also industry bigwigs. When they entered, all the actors stood up and respectfully greeted them.
The script reading officially began.
"...Xuanxuan, due to her background, is inherently proud and confident. The more confident she is, the more low-key and amiable she appears, showing no reverence for anyone.
She never rushes to present herself because she believes that even sitting quietly, she is the most charming. Her calm demeanor indicates the slightly rigid environment she grew up in.
The male lead’s chaotic life has a unique attraction for Xuanxuan, and the male lead’s talent genuinely humbles her. Deep down, she admires him.
However, Xuanxuan will never express her love before the male lead speaks first. She will only use subtle body language and expressions to let the audience know she likes him. This restrained, implicit feeling fits her best," Sheng Tang said.
After Sheng Tang finished speaking, both the producer and the director glanced at her.
The director said, "Great analysis, your acting is also excellent. I believe you can perform this role well."
The director was still amazed by Sheng Tang’s performance during the audition.
However, he was overwhelmed with work and slightly forgot Sheng Tang’s name.
Indeed, Sheng Tang was very beautiful, but does the entertainment industry lack beautiful women? As a renowned director, he was almost immune to beauties; he found them dull.
"...What is your name again?" the director asked.
"Sheng Tang."
"Sheng Tang, very good," the director said, then pointed to Ding Ruifan. "Ruifan, her acting is quite good, don’t let her outshine you."
This was a joke.
Ding Ruifan indeed responded with hearty laughter.
He also glanced at Sheng Tang and nodded to her, expressing some goodwill.
After the reading, on November 7, the crew officially started filming.
