In the small rented room, a girl was writing furiously. But soon she sighed and fell on the chair, her face full of pain.

The door of the rental house was opened, and a pretty girl came in. "Xiao Zou, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Xiao Zou sat up straight again. "No, I just feel depressed. I've been writing for so many years, but I haven't achieved anything. Xiao Xie, do you think I'm not cut out to be a screenwriter? Should I give up?"

Hearing her say this, Xiao Xie's face was also full of worry. "According to what you said, am I not suitable to be an actor and should I give up?"

For a moment, the two looked at each other in silence.

After a while, Xiao Xie held Xiao Zou's hand and squeezed it hard, as if to give her strength.

"Let's hold on a little longer, maybe success is just around the next corner."

Xiao Zou smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that easy. There are so many excellent people in this field. We are just the least outstanding ones."

Xiao Xie looked at her firmly: "But we can't give up easily. We agreed to make a name for ourselves in this industry together. Besides, as long as we keep working hard, there will always be a day when we will be noticed."

Xiao Zou nodded slightly, as if a glimmer of hope had been rekindled in his heart. "I plan to submit this new script and my previous scripts to the production company. Maybe they will be accepted tomorrow."

Xiao Xie encouraged her, "Of course you will. Come on, Zou Yilin!"

Zou Yilin also encouraged her, "Come on, Xie Ruolin!"

Xie Ruolin took the script that Zou Yilin had written a long time ago and read it over. "It's very well written. It would be great if it could be made into a movie or TV series."

Zou Yilin couldn't help but sigh, "Oh, not necessarily. Actors nowadays like to shoot unrealistic love movies, so they don't like this kind of reality. I have submitted my work to several production companies, but no one has contacted me."

Xie Ruolin suddenly thought of someone, "I think it would be better to send this script to Zhao Yilin instead of submitting it to a production company. If she likes it, she will definitely be able to film it and it won't be changed in any way."

Zou Yilin pondered, "Her name is Yilin, just like mine, but I don't have such a good life."

Xie Ruolin corrected her, "Then you are wrong. Zhao Yilin's road to fame was not smooth. She played supporting roles for seven years before she slowly made it to where she is today."

Zou Yilin teased her, "I didn't expect you still have the heart to chase stars. It seems that you are more optimistic than me. You will definitely achieve more than me in the future."

"It's not about being a star. She is a role model for grassroots actors like us. We can persevere because her experience encourages us."

"Oh, I've strayed off topic. Give her your script. Maybe she'll be interested in it."

Zou Yilin didn't understand, "If the production company doesn't like it, what's the point of her liking it?"

"You don't understand. It doesn't matter whether the production company likes it or not. What matters is that she likes the script. She has long been a big shot in the film and television industry. As long as she is willing to act, there are many people who will invest in her."

Xie Ruolin said this with a proud smile on her face, as if the person she was talking about was herself. "I must work hard and become a leader in the industry like her in the future!"

They have known each other for many years, and this is the first time Zou Yilin has seen her praise someone so highly that she is a bit tempted. "How about I give it a try, but how can I give her the book?"

Xie Ruolin patted her chest and said, "This is easy. Leave it to me. After all, I have been in this circle for so many years, so I can probably find out about this kind of channels."

Zou Yilin handed the script to Xie Ruolin solemnly, "Please."

Seeing how serious she was, Xie Ruolin took the script very carefully and said, "I will do my best to fulfill my mission!"

In the following days, Xie Ruolin asked many people for help and contacted many people for Zou Yilin's script, and finally found an opportunity to hand the script to Zhao Yilin's cousin He Le.

He Le knew that Zhao Yilin was worried about not having a good script recently, so he gave her the script that was stuffed into his hand. People put so much thought into it, so it shouldn't be too bad. If it's really a good script, don't let it go to waste.

"Sis, this is the script someone asked me to hand you."

Zhao Yilin took a quick look and said, "At Forty, You Are Not Confused? It can't be one of those melodramatic family ethics dramas."

He Le had not read the script. "I don't know. I haven't read it. Anyway, you are selecting the script now, so it doesn't hurt to read it."

Zhao Yilin flipped through the pages and sneered after reading a few pages. "It's a sister-brother relationship, or more accurately, an aunt-niece relationship. A young man in his twenties dating a forty-year-old middle-aged woman. Does he have an Oedipus complex?"

He Le was annoyed when he heard this. He had wasted his cousin's time for no reason. "Is that so? Then I'll give it back to her."

Zhao Yilin continued reading. "It's not like there's nothing good about it. At least the writing is pretty good. But scripts are meant to be put on screen, not like novels. What's the point of having good writing?"

He Le saw that she was still looking at it, and he was anxious to go home to be with his wife and children. "Sister, you look at it first. I'll leave first and come back to get it tomorrow."

Zhao Yilin looked at her brother's back as he left and shook her head helplessly. She continued to read the script, becoming more and more fascinated, and was moved by the tenacity and courage of the protagonist in the play. She couldn't help but sigh that she didn't want such a wonderful story to be buried.

The next day, He Le came to Zhao Yilin's home and asked her what she thought of the script. Zhao Yilin smiled appreciatively and said, "This script is very interesting. I decided to film it."

He Le looked at her in surprise, "Sister, don't you think the plot is inappropriate?"

Zhao Yilin explained with a smile, "Although the plot is a bit special, the characters are portrayed in a delicate way and have certain merits. I believe the audience will like it."

A few days later, Zou Yilin received a message that her script was accepted and the investor was Zhao Yilin's studio.

Zou Yilin was so excited that she immediately called Xie Ruolin to share the good news. "Ruolin, your method is really useful. Zhao Yilin's studio has decided to film my script."

Xie Ruolin was also very happy when she heard it. "Really? That's great."

Zou Yilin wanted her to accompany him to meet Zhao Yilin, "Ruolin, please accompany me to the meeting the day after tomorrow. Maybe you can play a role in it."

Xie Ruolin was very grateful that she didn't forget to help her at this time. "Okay, I don't have any show the day after tomorrow."

That night, the two girls couldn't sleep. Did things really turn around for them?
