Has Big Shot Fallen in Love Today?-Chapter 934: Sheng Tang Is the Best Among Female Stars
Sister Ying didn’t oppose anymore.
Being Ding Ruifan’s agent, indeed, feels like being a high-level assistant.
Ding Ruifan respects her a lot, because they started out together, and she has helped him quite a bit.
However, according to Ding Ruifan’s current status, an agent still having to manage every detail comes across as very inappropriate.
Sister Ying also knows that Ding Ruifan has been somewhat tired of acting in recent years.
He no longer lacks money or status, he just wants a big award under his belt, but many topics and roles no longer interest him.
He often complains about boredom and would say, "I seem to be really getting old, nothing excites me anymore."
When Sheng Tang handed him the script, his eyes lit up, and he felt the joy of receiving a beloved role in his youth; after he finished reading the novel, he was completely captivated.
Sister Ying’s belief in the "superstition" of the capital circle, thinking that the leads of big productions are "unlucky" if it flops, is true, but it is not destructive to Ding Ruifan.
Given his current standing, nothing would be enough to bring him down unless he was involved in drugs or infidelity, which would trigger public outrage.
And Ding Ruifan has never crossed those lines.
If this movie fails, it could be devastating for Sheng Tang; she might really be abandoned by capital.
Even if Ding Ruifan is the male lead, the pressure would be much less for him.
These are the primary reasons.
There are also secondary reasons that stopped Sister Ying from persuading Ding Ruifan further: Ding Ruifan is very superstitious.
He believes that Sheng Tang is a "lucky charm."
So regarding Sheng Tang’s movie, he blindly believes it will succeed.
For instance, when Sheng Tang asked him to be in "The Little Building," he indeed invested thirty million himself and took on this small-budget art film, showing a bit of blind obedience to Sheng Tang’s words.
Given all this, Sister Ying felt it was pointless to persuade him further.
Moreover, although Ding Ruifan seems rash, he actually has a plan in mind; he just acts decisively.
Sister Ying also overheard him talking to his wife in the dressing room.
"... I really want to take it, I felt a spark the moment I saw the script, a love-at-first-sight kind of impulse. So, even if it flops, I’ll accept it," said Ding Ruifan.
Mrs. Ding laughed on the other end of the phone: "It’s been a while since I heard you say something like that. In that case, this role is priceless."
At their current level, Mrs. Ding no longer insists on what kind of projects her husband takes or how much he earns.
With Ding Ruifan’s current state, as long as he doesn’t cross the lines of "drugs" or "infidelity," nothing else matters.
"My wife has always been very supportive," Ding Ruifan laughed, "Sister Ying is quite worried." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
"Ying is very responsible," Mrs. Ding said, "You should explain to her properly, so she doesn’t worry. Should I give her a call later?"
"Sure, she seems to trust you more," Ding Ruifan laughed.
Indeed, shortly afterward, Mrs. Ding called Sister Ying.
Sister Ying was pacified by the couple’s assurance.
Sheng Tang got the role, quickly completed role analysis, character study, discussed with the director, and after getting the director’s advice, she started shooting.
The director asked her, "Mr. Sheng, how many days do you need to memorize the lines?"
"I’ve already memorized them," Sheng Tang replied.
The director thought she was bragging.
Yet, after several scenes, Sheng Tang’s lines were flawless, and the character’s emotions were very accurate.
She portrayed the "Wartime Madam’s" restlessness, selfishness, pettiness, and lack of confidence in the country’s future and her own prospects very well.
"No wonder she’s been so popular in recent years, her acting skills, her articulation, she’s definitely the best among the actresses I’ve encountered!" The director was already captivated by Sheng Tang.
When the day’s filming wrapped up, Sheng Tang had a private conversation with Ding Ruifan about the pay.
