I started by signing in to a billionaire sister

Chapter 209: Looks like him, but his acting gets a negative score.

"Xiaowei, never try to shoulder anything alone. We're family."

"Okay, I will." Chen Wei covered Su Qingyue with the blanket, said goodnight, turned off the light, and left the room.

Afterwards, back in his room, the only thing that Chen Wei felt sorry for was that such a nice sports car was now completely ruined.

The next morning, Chen Wei opened his eyes early. He still had to act with Su Meiyu that day and finish filming the movie as soon as possible so he could be free.

[Should I check in for day 19?]

Sign in!

[Checking in...]

[Sign-in successful! Congratulations, host, on obtaining the title of Great Actor!]

In an instant, a wealth of experience flooded Chen Wei's mind. It's no exaggeration to say that he now has more than ten ways to portray crying scenes, all of which are experiences summarized by his predecessors.

"Xiao Wei, you're free today, right?" Su Meiyu asked as soon as Chen Wei walked over.

"Yes, Director Liang called me yesterday. I'm free, so I can go straight to the set after breakfast." Chen Wei replied as he tore the fried dough sticks into pieces and threw them into the porridge.

"Going to the film set? To do odd jobs?" Su Yumeng interjected.

“What do you mean by doing odd jobs? Xiao Wei is the male lead,” Su Meiyu emphasized.

"The male lead, him?" Su Yumeng was skeptical.

He turned his gaze to Su Meiyu, adopting a serious expression, "I'm not being long-winded, Second Sister, but you are a film queen. You have to be extremely careful when choosing roles. One bad film can easily destroy the reputation of ten good films you've made."

"I have a lot of confidence in Director Liang in this regard."

"Director Liang? Which Director Liang?" Su Yumeng pressed.

“Liang Wen,” Su Meiyu replied.

"The director of Dream Building! I can understand why a director of that caliber would cast you, Second Sister, as the lead, but why did they choose my brother?"

Su Yumeng admitted that Chen Wei sings very well, but acting is not something that can be achieved by simply having some talent.

"Brother, tell me honestly, did you use the investors' rights?" Su Yumeng turned to look at Chen Wei, thinking she had seen through everything.

Chen Wei ignored her and quietly drank his porridge. Wasn't that delicious enough?

"Investor rights?" Upon hearing this, Su Meiyu chuckled. "Xiao Wei was willing to participate because of me. Director Liang Wen begged him several times before he finally agreed."

Upon hearing this, Su Qingyue and Lin Qiuyue were both shocked.

They all knew Liang Wen's status in the directing circle. As the first national first-class director, someone of his caliber was always surrounded by admirers and fawned over. He was the one who had to fawn over others.

If someone else had said this, Su Qingyue and Lin Qiuyue would never have believed it, but they knew Su Meiyu; she wouldn't say such things carelessly.

Since Su Meiyu said so, it must be true.

"Don't disbelieve me, I even have Xiaowei's audition video here. Because the quality is so good, Director Liang said it can be directly used as footage for the main scene." Su Qingyue split the video onto the TV so that everyone could see it.

After watching, the three women looked at Chen Wei with disbelief. Lin Qiuyue spoke first, "Xiao Wei, you really haven't studied acting?"

In his opinion, this level of skill would be among the best in the world, even if placed in the best film academy in China.

"I really haven't studied it; it was just improvisation," Chen Wei said truthfully.

“Even improvisation can have this effect. If you were to train someone seriously, and you didn’t quit, I doubt anyone would ever win Best Actor.” Lin Qiuyue wasn’t joking. “I know, just like Second Sister is now, right? I think I heard that someone is appealing to the award organizers to add restrictions, so that each person can only win Best Actress once every few years.” Su Yumeng suddenly remembered the news she had seen before.

"Indeed, but it was rejected. Everyone should win awards based on their own abilities. Why should I wait several years?" Su Meiyu was still angry when she talked about it.

"That's how incompetent people are. Those streamers have nothing better to do than hire online trolls to spew nonsense in my livestream." Competitors are enemies, and Su Yumeng was already used to this kind of thing.

They talked a lot about the grudges and rivalries between colleagues. If Su Qingyue hadn't reminded them that they were going to be late, Su Yumeng could have continued talking.

"I'm going to school now. I wish you a smooth start-up, Second Sister." With that, the door slammed shut.

"This girl, doesn't she know how to be gentle?" Su Meiyu said, somewhat annoyed.

"Sis, I'm finished eating, let's go." Chen Wei wiped his mouth clean.

"Okay." Su Meiyu agreed and followed Chen Wei out of the house together.

Because his car broke down and Chen Wei didn't have a driver's license, he had no choice but to take a taxi to the film studio.

Lin Qiuyue had her own work to do and didn't want to bother her.

Tiandi Film City.

Because of his previous refusal of Liang Wen, Chen Wei is now quite famous, and his arrival immediately sparked heated discussions.

"I'm quite famous now," Chen Wei said with a wry smile.

"It's more than just famous, it's incredibly famous. It even trended on social media for a few hours. You're the first person Liang Wen has ever rejected in all his years in the industry." Lin Qiuyue smiled, not wanting to attract strange looks.

"By the way, I heard that the major investors will also be coming this time."

"What are you here for?" Chen Wei asked.

"Let's take a look at the situation and go through the procedures. Don't worry too much about it," Lin Qiuyue said, worried that Chen Wei might be nervous.

"Okay," Chen Wei replied casually.

nervous?

He didn't think there was anything to be nervous about. If the investor didn't like him, Chen Wei wasn't worried that he would threaten to withdraw his investment.

At worst, Chen Wei can invest in the film himself.

It's not a problem to have that little bit of money.

Upon arriving at the filming location, the so-called major investor was a woman in her forties or fifties named Du Yan. She was heavily made up, with so much powder on her face that it was probably thicker than the walls of her house, which looked rather eerie.

"Here he is! Mr. Du, this is the person I told you about before, the most suitable person in the world for the role of Lin Xiao," Liang Wen introduced enthusiastically.

"He's good-looking, but I wonder how his acting is? Let me make this clear beforehand: if his acting isn't up to par, I won't agree to let him join, lest he ruin the reputation of the whole show." Du Yan arrogantly put on airs, displaying an attitude of being the only one who matters.

"Don't worry, Mr. Du, I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

"I hope so." Du Yan didn't have high hopes. How many young male actors these days have acting skills? It's like looking for a needle in a haystack. Especially the more handsome they are, the more their acting skills suffer.

Chen Wei's looks... his acting skills would probably be a negative score.

"You, your name is Chen Wei, right? You, it's you! You are Lin Xiao! You can't be replaced, absolutely not! I'll fight anyone who replaces you! Your acting was superb, that feeling of staying in your hometown and missing your lover, you portrayed it so perfectly."

As a result, after watching Chen Wei's performance, during the intermission, Du Yan's attitude was completely different, as if she were a different person.
