Mo Long did not hear what he wanted and laid down in a slightly angry manner.
Although Jiang Yu did not understand, she still put the medicine box away and lay down beside Mo Long, falling asleep.
The next morning, Jiang Yu did not see Leanne. She heard from the person who stayed over last night that Leanne had woken up early this morning to go to shoot a movie.
“Since she is going to shoot a movie, she should not come again today.” Jiang Yu let out a long sigh of relief.
But that was what she thought, and Leanne might not have done so.
Not only did she come back at night, she even brought a middle-aged man and a middle-aged woman.
The middle-aged man had blonde hair, and he looked completely like a foreigner. As for the middle-aged woman, she had long black hair and was Asian, but Jiang Yu wasn’t sure which country she was from.
The man walked up to Jiang Yu and sized her up. “Are you Jiang Yu?”
“Yes, I am,” Jiang Yu answered politely.
“Hello, I am Hebin, a director.” The man stretched out his hand and briefly introduced himself.
Jiang Yu also stretched out her hand and politely shook it back.
The middle-aged woman also walked over. After shaking hands with Jiang Yu, she briefly introduced herself. “Hello, my name is Jin Lan. I am Hebin’s wife and also a screenwriter.”
When she introduced herself, she introduced herself in Chinese.
“Hello.” When Jiang Yu was in China, she had heard of Jin Lan’s great name and knew that she was a very excellent screenwriter. However, she had never had the chance to meet her.
Today, they finally had the chance to meet.
“We are currently filming.” Hebin went straight to the point, “Although we have already confirmed that the female lead is Leanne, there is no suitable candidate for the second and third female lead. Zaka sent us clips of your previous work, and Leanne recommended you to us, so we plan to choose you to be our second or third female lead.”
Jiang Yu paused and looked at Leanne with an inquisitive gaze. “But I only plan to stay here for a week. I may not have enough time to film.”
Hebin frowned. She had already said that she did not have time, so he could not force her to come over to film.
But just as he was about to speak, Leanne interrupted him. “Jiang Yu, I heard that you filmed Zaka’s scenes in Malaysia, right? What, her scenes can be filmed, but Hebin’s scenes can’t be filmed?”
What she said was clearly a moral kidnapping. Trying to tell Hebin that Jiang Yu looked down on him.
However, Jiang Yu was not flustered by Leanne’s words, instead, she calmly explained, “I’m only a cameo in Zaka’s scenes. There are less than 20 scenes. Of course, I can film them if I have enough time. Moreover, director Hebin and the screenwriter of Jin Lan are both internationally famous people. I’m just a Little Jiang Yu. I don’t have the confidence to act in their scenes.”
The corner of Leanne’s mouth twitched a few times. “After all, you just don’t want to act, do you?”
Jiang Yu didn’t follow Leanne’s words, instead, she said respectfully to Hebin, “Director, my acting isn’t very good. It’s my honor that you’re willing to watch my works. I feel very regretful that I can’t act in your plays.”
Her attitude was sincere, and it didn’t seem like she was faking it at all.
In the past, if she had said that, Hebin would definitely respect her opinion.
However, he had seen the clips of Jiang Yu’s work and was deeply attracted by her acting skills. Therefore, even if Jiang Yu said that he did not have time, Hebin still wanted to fight for it.
“Jiang Yu, do you really not have any time?” Hebin looked at her with hope burning in his eyes, “Your acting skills are really good. When Zaka recommended you, she also said that you would never let us down. So I’m not worried about your acting skills. I’m only worried that we really can’t work together.”
He really hadn’t met an actor with such good acting skills in many years, so he didn’t want to give up so easily.
And Jiang Yu did hesitate for a moment because of Hebin’s words.
It was not only because of Hebin’s pleas, but also because she did not want to make things difficult for Zaka.
So, she thought about it and agreed to Hebin’s request.
“Okay!” Hebin beamed with joy and took out a script from Jin Lan’s handbag, he handed it to Jiang Yu. “I have brought the script here. You can read it over the next few days. I will inform you when the shooting officially starts.”
Jiang Yu could not help but laugh. It seemed like Hebin had already prepared for this. If she did not agree to his request today, she did not know how Hebin was going to persuade her.
