Chapter 53. Confirmed
Ren widened his eyes in surprise after the performance has ended. He was surprised to see everyone clapping and applausing for him.
'It looks like they liked my audition.'
Ren thought as he looked at his surroundings. All the people in the room were smiling while looking at him.
White bear was even smiling while crying. He was looking really funny and Ren was barely able to stop his laughter from leaking out.
"You really did great. I never thought you would be this good."
CEO Wang came towards him and said with a satisfied expression. It looked like he was satisfied with Ren's acting.
"Thank you for your praise, CEO. I still have much to learn."
"Don't be humble. You did great."
"Yeah, I really thought the one acting was Rei, not you."
Director Fu and Zhu Yi also came towards him. They were both looking excited while staring at Ren.
"Thank you for your praise, Director Fu. You too, Writer Zhu."
Director Fu and Zhu Yi talked enthusiastically with Ren. They were really happy with the way Ren has portrayed the character.
After talking with him for sometime, both of them left as they wanted to work on the script.
Although they left, the way they were talking with Ren almost confirmed that they really wanted Ren to play the male lead.
CEO Wang also knew this, Ren was the best one out of all of the auditions, he would be a idiot if he rejected him.
"Ren, you are not tired, right. You are sweating quite a lot, let me wipe off that sweat."
"No, it's okay. Don't worry about it."
White bear came to him after Director Fu and Zhu Yi left. He had already wiped off all of his tears and was now smiling.
"Why don't we talk in the other room? We can drink some coffee there too."
"Sure, let's go."
CEO Wang invited them to the other room to drink some coffee. He can't let them go empty handed.
He can at least invite them to drink a cup of coffee. He can also talk more with them this way.
They moved to the other room with some other producers and started to drink coffee there.
Although all of them were sitting, all the gazes were on Ren. The other producers who had watched his acting was really stunned because of his act as they kept glancing at him.
"Your act was really awesome. I never thought you could act like this. Have you obtained acting lessons?"
"No, I used to do theatre but I never received professional lessons."
"Really! I thought you have received professional guidance after seeing your act."
CEO Wang and the other producers were shocked when they heard that Ren hasn't received any professional lessons.
It means that he was a natural actor.
"Your acting in «Secret spy» was also great. I really thought you were crazy after seeing..."
When a producer was saying that, another producer sitting besides him elbowed him and smiled embarrassingly.
"Haha, you could ignore that but your acting today was also good. Although we have to have a internal meeting and inform the higher ups before deciding everything, I think that the role will surely go to you."
"Thank you, CEO Wang."
Both Ren and White bear slightly lowered their heads when they heard that.
They were both happy by it, especially Ren who has worked really hard for the role.
He was glad that his effort has paid off. Although he knew that many things would be changed by him playing the main role, he didn't worry much about it.
He knew that he just have to work hard to make everything like his previous life.
"Now, that we have our male lead, we just have to search for the other cast members."
A old looking producer said. He was already treating Ren as the male lead.
"Is the audition for other cast members still not done?"
White bear asked as he tilted his head and CEO Wang sighed as he said.
"We almost have all the cast, the female lead is also almost confirmed but the problem is the main character's sister."
"Male character's sister??"
Ren tilted his head as he asked in confusion.
"Yeah, we have not cast anyone for that role and her role is also pretty big."
"Yeah, her role is quite important. She is just below the female lead."
As the producers were talking, Ren was confused inwardly.
In his previous life, the role of the main character sister was played by Lu Jin, a young child actress.
She was also quite good in her acting. She has made it big after this role but she quickly faded away from the limelight as her family wanted her to focus more on her studies.
She was an actress that has the skills but not the ambition.
'Maybe, the producers has yet to find her.'
Ren thought as he listened to the conversation. He was thinking of recommending Lu Jia to them but he suddenly stopped as an idea came into his mind.
"Either way, it looks like we have to look for some more until we could find a suitable actress."
"CEO, if you don't mind, you could look for an actress in our agency. We have quite a bit of young actresses."
"Huh! Is that so? Then, certainly we can look for her there. If you have one in mind, you can also recommend us one."
CEO Wang just shrugged Ren's words as he thought nothing much of them.
He was well informed that Top star entertainment was more focused on training idols.
Although they were investing in actors, they only have a few good ones like Ren and Chu Min. He didn't think there would be a good young actress in there.
Although he thought like that, White bear was looking at Ren with a weird expression.
He has a feeling that Ren was going to do something big.
"Either way, let's do our best from now on. By the way, your schedule is free right. We are thinking of having the script reading next month and starting the shooting soon after that."
"You don't have to worry about, CEO. We will come to the shoot whenever you wanted us to."
"Haha, that's great then. I really pray that Ren would become famous after the drama."
"Yeah, let's work hard for that."
CEO Wang and White bear exchanged some pleasantries as Ren and White bear left the production house.
As soon as they sat in the van, White bear looked towards Ren with a strange expression.
"You are not thinking something strange, right."
"No, why do you think that?"
"No, it's just a feeling."
White bear said as he started the van and Ren showed a strange smile as he looked outside the window.
