Chapter 652: Gao Fan
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lu Zhen did not expect the man she met at the banquet to be the Second Young Master of the Lin family. At night, Jiang Kai dragged his tired body back, still smelling of alcohol.
Lu Zhen brought over the hangover soup that had been brewed. She looked at Jiang Kai and took a sip before asking, “Are the guests today the Lin couple and Lin Sui?”
Jiang Kai glanced at her. “How did you know?”
“l went to the kitchen to get some food. I saw them.”
It was rare for Jiang Kai to see Lu Zhen ask, so he sat up straight and said, “Yes, they come to visit Grandpa every New Year. In a few days, I’ll bring gifts to visit Old Master Lin.’
Lu Zhen seemed to have understood something. “It seems that the Jiang family and the Lin family have a deep relationship.”
Jiang Kai nodded and was a little puzzled. “Are you so interested in the Lin family?”
Lu Zhen shook her head. “No, I was just asking.”
After returning to her room, she was about to wash up and go to bed to rest when Ye Xuan suddenly called.
On the other side of the video, Ye Xuan seemed to be in the study. Lu Zhen had no doubt that perhaps at midnight on New Year’s Eve, Ye Xuan was still working in front of the computer. Ye Xuan went straight to the point and said, “Director Gao Fan wants to film a television drama. I got you two roles. Choose one.’
“Director Gao Fan?” Lu Zhen was stunned for a moment and said in surprise, “He wants to film a television drama?”
Gao Fan was one of the most famous film directors of Newport’s Golden Age, known as the “Light of Newport Films.”
His shooting technique was mysterious, and the scenes were dreamy. He had his own unique characteristics. He is best at incorporating a large number of metaphors in movies, often without explicitly expressing emotions and themes.
This also made his movie reviews a little polarized. Those who did not understand said that he liked to “pretend to be deep” and “pretentious”. Those who liked him would analyze his camera language frame by frame and make rich interpretations.
Gao Fan had only filmed one movie in the past ten years and rarely appeared in the media. In the hearts of most fans, he was almost synonymous with the old-fashioned movies of the last century.
Who would have thought that Gao Fan would make a comeback and film a television drama!
Lu Zhen also noticed that Ye Xuan asked her to choose one of the two roles and did not give her the option to refuse. She took a deep breath and hid her excitement. Without Ye Xuan’s reminder, she would not reject such an opportunity.
After receiving the document from Ye Xuan, Lu Zhen quickly browsed through it. There was a huge disparity between the two roles.
Character A took less than one-fifth of Character B’s total time. While Lu Zhen was analyzing the role, Ye Xuan added, “After you choose, the remaining roles will be Guan Yuri’s.’
Lu Zhen was stunned. Guan Yun would also act in it? That was true. This was Director Gao Fan’s first time filming a television drama. Even Guan Yun, who focused her career on the foreign market, would not miss such a good opportunity.
To Lu Zhen’s surprise, she actually had the priority to choose when both she and Guan Yun had the chance to act in this television drama! She couldn’t help but guess: Did Song Jia get in through the back door for her?
Ye Xuan probably guessed Lu Zhen’s thoughts and smiled faintly. “Don’t think too much. The company’s domestic resources are more biased towards you now. Besides, I’m your manager.”
The last sentence revealed a natural domineering aura, as if it was just a very ordinary fact.
Lu Zhen couldn’t help but laugh. “Yes, yes, yes. It’s my blessing to have you.”
After looking at the two characters and thinking for a moment, she said, “l think Manni’s character is quite good.”

Manni was the character with fewer scenes. Of course, it was not that the other role was bad. In fact, these two roles tempted Lu Zhen. As expected of the script produced by Director Gao Fan. Both roles had unique personalities and complicated soul levels.
Ye Xuan nodded. She did not say no, nor did she say yes. She took a sip of coffee. “There are a total of four main female characters in this drama. Manni is the one with the least scenes, but she’s also the most important character because she directly shaped the male lead’s emotional values and affected the latter half of the male lead’s life.’
Lu Zhen agreed and added, “This role is also the one with the most blanks. I feel that there’s more room to play.”
Ye Xuan could not help but laugh. “The other two actresses chose two female characters with more scenes. And yet you don’t care about the length of the camera.”
This was a television drama directed by Gao Fan.. Which actor didn’t want to appear in front of Director Gao Fan for an extra minute?
