The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Gu Sheng didn’t dare to think too much about this call. He left the office in the loan section and sat down weakly in the bank lobby. He picked up the call. “Hello, this is Gu Sheng.”

Zhao Bing was a little embarrassed when she heard Gu Sheng’s voice. It had been more than a month. She didn’t know if the role had been confirmed. She smiled and greeted him first, “Good morning, Director Gu! I’m Zhao Bing.”

Gu Sheng forced a smile and greeted, “Manager Zhao.”

Zhao Bing did not beat around the bush and asked directly, “Director Gu, have you chosen the female lead for ‘Legend of Gan Lan’?”

There’s a chance! These three words flashed through Gu Sheng’s mind as he sat up straight. “No! We’re still in the midst of preparations! The casting of the female lead has just begun!”

Zhao Bing heaved a sigh of relief. “Director Gu, the situation is this. Our An’an is very interested in the role of Gan Lan and wants to audition.”

Gu Sheng replied happily, “We were waiting for An’an. Our audition started a few days ago. It’s planned to take half a month. When is An’an free? 1’11 arrange it.”

Zhao Bing smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll confirm the time with An’an first before contacting you.”

Gu Sheng quickly replied, “No problem! Zhao Bing, 1 have another question I want to ask you.”

Zhao Bing asked readily, “Tell me.”

Speaking of money, Gu Sheng was a little embarrassed. Moreover, it was a request for them to bring all the money into the production team alone.

Gu Sheng coughed lightly. “I heard that Jiang Huai invested in ‘Cycle’ for An’an. I wonder if our show…”

Gu Sheng didn’t say it too clearly, but everyone understood the hint.

Only then did Zhao Bing come to a realization. She was wondering why a big director like Gu Sheng would take a fancy to An’an. Although An’an’s talent and acting skills were indeed quite good, it was not to the extent that Gu Sheng would take the initiative to hand over the script.

Zhao Bing thought that Jiang An liked this script so much, and Jiang Huai was a protective demon. She felt that this matter was not a big problem, but she could not be too confident, so she only replied, “I can help you ask about this. How much do you need for your budget?”

Gu Sheng thought for a moment and replied, “The budget has to be at least 50 million yuan. However, if we want to film better and make Gan Lan more outstanding, we have to increase it by 20 to 30 million yuan.”

Gu Sheng was also a smart person. He could tell that Jiang Huai doted on his sister. Not only was the drama filmed well, but he was also using Jiang An’s character as an example.

Zhao Bing could tell what Gu Sheng was thinking. She smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll help you convey the truth.”

Investing in the company’s name was naturally the company’s boss, Jiang Huai’s decision. Zhao Bing hung up the phone and first confirmed the audition time with Jiang An for a week later before calling Jiang Huai to say that Jiang An had taken a fancy to Gu Sheng’s script.

Jiang Huai first asked Jiang An for her thoughts on this drama, then asked Zhao Bing for her opinion.

Zhao Bing told him about her phone call with Jiang An in the wee hours of the morning and mentioned the investment.

After Jiang Huai heard this, he had the same thoughts as Zhao Bing, but An’an wanted to act. “As long as An’an likes it, investments are fine. When An’an’s identity as the female lead is confirmed, ask Gu Sheng to talk to me directly.”

Zhao Bing revealed an ‘1-knew-it’ expression. “Alright, 1 understand.”

For the next week, Jiang An went to the company to work as usual. As the company had a practice room, the large mirror helped Jiang An observe her performance. Jiang Huai would also take time every day to help Jiang An practice and guide her from time to time.

A week later, Jiang An followed Zhao Bing to the audition venue. The process was naturally green light all the way and was directly decided.

The original impression that Gan Lan had in Gu Sheng’s mind was that she was as innocent as a university student. Under the etiquette of feudal society, she slowly became less alive. Because she went against her heart, she lived like a walking corpse. After her awakening, other than the pure heart of a university student, she had a more youthful spirit and the courage to fight as a pioneer.

Tan Si, who had come for the audition two days ago, looked more in line with Gu Sheng’s requirements. He could also tell that the other party had carefully thought about the script and the audition results were very good. Gu Sheng was very confident that under his guidance, Tan Si could perform even better. Therefore, he had thought of giving the female lead to her at that time and revealed that he thought highly of her to keep her as an option first.. However, after seeing Jiang An’s performance just now…
