Su Qingdai was right. Yi Ziyao was born into a family of acting dynasty and had been on the big screen at the age of five. He had filmed countless movies and television dramas. Although he was young, he was already known as a veteran actor. Moreover, in the big cesspool that is showbiz, he remained true to his heart and had always been humble, hardworking, and a straight-A student. Hence, he was the prince charming of countless young girls.

Li Beibei could not help but glance at the other end of the table.

According to her memories from her previous life, Yi Ziyao had indeed won the Azure Dragon Award for Best Actor for “Small Shop in Hometown”. In the following few years, he would go on to win all the Best Actor awards everywhere and become an A-lister in showbiz.

Yi Ziyao only smiled faintly and said politely in the face of the heaps of praise, “Thank you.”

As they chatted, everyone’s topic shifted to the characters.

Zhang Jiaji said, “How did you guys get the role? I had to audition nine times before I succeeded. Originally, the director didn’t want me. He was probably moved by my perseverance, haha.”

Zhang Jiaji was a carefree person. In her previous life, Li Beibei did not have much of an impression of this person. She only heard that he seemed to have come from quite a prominent family background.

Liang Feifan said, “My agent arranged it for me. I won second place in the talent show and my agent said to strike while the iron was hot. He spent a lot of effort to pull strings and get me this role…”

Yang Zhenzhen echoed, “Me too, me too. It’s so difficult to get a role in Mr. Zhang’s movie. When I got the audition script, I spent a month practicing dancing and even lost ten kilograms before I got this role.”

Yang Zhenzhen asked Li Beibei, “What about you? The audition requirements for the young Taiping character must have been stricter, right?”

Before Li Beibei could speak, Su Qingdai interjected, “Beibei is very lucky. She was chosen without even having to go for an audition. Beibei even helped me to get my role.”

When everyone heard this, they suddenly fell silent.

A girl with a minor role snorted. “So it was through the backdoor.”

Su Qingdai suddenly looked stunned and looked at Li Beibei. “Beibei, did I cause everyone to misunderstand?”

Li Beibei sneered secretly. Su Qingdai looked at her with a pitiful look and asked if she had caused a misunderstanding, but she did not explain what misunderstanding. She had already gotten Li Beibei labeled as someone who got the role through the backdoor before she even started filming. Su Qingdai was really very conniving.

Seeing the awkward situation, Liang Feifan tried to smooth things over. “You need to have what it takes too, even if you got the role through the backdoor. Forget the role of the young Taiping… Even the lead role of the adult Taiping was also orchestrated. I heard that Mr. Zhang originally wanted the award-winning Ruan Manyu—who had won a Best Actress award—for the role and her schedule had even been allocated for the filming. But, Bo Muyan threw a spanner in the works. Because Second Master Fu is the biggest investor in this drama, Ruan Manyu was replaced at the last minute. Now, the teams of the two stars are fighting it out.”

Upon hearing Fu Jingmo’s name, Li Beibei was surprised and asked almost reflexively, “What does this have to do with Fu Jingmo?”

Yang Zhenzhen gave a gossipy look. “You don’t even know this? Second Master Fu is Bo Muyan’s sugar daddy. Otherwise, how could she have risen from a nobody to an A-list celebrity in just a year?”

In her previous life, Li Beibei did not care much about Fu Jingmo, so she really did not know much about his private life.

Li Beibei was just curious, but Su Qingdai was very excited. “I heard that Bo Muyan has a lot of scandals and that she used to be a hostess. I didn’t expect Second Master Fu to have such bad taste and take a fancy to such a person.”

Yang Zhenzhen reminded her kindly, “You mustn’t say such things. You might land in trouble. Second Master Fu will be here for the banquet tonight too.”
