Chapter 851 Cursing Him
“Since the Yuan family wants to be your in-law, then you must not only watch out for your words, deeds and reputation outside, but also the Yuan family’s,” Old Madam reminded. “You must not let the Yuan family do something that would be criticized by others. Otherwise, when people talk about it, they will say isn’t the Yuan family the in-law of the Wei family. And they will mention the Wei family with disdain.”
“If such a situation happens, we won’t be able to control the Yuan family, but we will look for your family to settle the score,” Old Mister said coldly.
Yuan Zhengwen had a bad reputation when he was in Tanyue. When he was on his own, his reputation in the business world was not so good either.
Old Mister felt that the Yuan family would cause trouble sooner or later.
Regardless of official or private matters.
One could tell just by looking at Yuan Keqing and Xu Mingjing. Both of them had the same character. How good could Yuan Zhengwen be? If his wife wasn’t a good person, but he was, then he could still teach his daughter well.
Even if he couldn’t teach her well to be like Tan Mo, it wouldn’t be like Yuan Keqing.
So, how could Yuan Zhengwen be a good person?
Old Madam actually didn’t forget Yuan Keqing.
At her birthday banquet back then, Qin Murong had caused trouble there. Qin Murong was the most obvious target.
But Old Madam did not ignore Yuan Keqing’s instigation.
Therefore, she had specifically asked about Yuan Keqing.
She knew that Yuan Keqing had played a role in the instigation. She also knew that Yuan Keqing hadn’t been invited, and how she had entered the birthday banquet using Wei Keli.
After coming in, she was restless, and she was not worried that she would ruin the birthday banquet because of her selfishness.
She had been so capable when she was only six years old.
Besides self-taught, it had to be from her family history.
“Yes,” Wei Zhijian could only lower his head and agree. “Since this is the case, don’t even bring up again such an unreasonable request like getting the eldest son-in-law to arrange for you to join his crew,” said Old Mister. “Momo is right. Since you’re not afraid of hardships and you’re mentally prepared to play a minor role, then joining any crew is the same. Why do you need to join Jinqi’s crew? If people find out, they’ll think that you’ve joined the crew relying on connections, and it will wipe out all your hard work and effort.”
“It’s clear that you put in the effort, but no one will see it. Moreover, they will say that you rely on connections. This is so unfair. Only a fool would do such a thing,” Old Madam echoed. “Since this is the case, after all, you will work hard and pay the price, why not once in for all take it as Jinqi has never become a director? And you don’t think of your idea on him anymore.” Yuan Keqing was lost for words.
For the sake of Tan Mo, these two elders could just say anything at all. They clearly had such a connection, so why didn’t they let her use it!
Other people were using it!
“Uncle, why don’t we talk to Xu Dashi and ask him to arrange a role for Keqing?” asked Wei Keli, not knowing where he gathered the courage from. “Kefeng Films has so many self-made dramas. Any drama that hasn’t been initiated yet or has just been initiated. We can directly arrange for Keqing to be the female lead.”
Wei Keli paused for a moment and said, “It doesn’t have to be the female lead, second or third female lead is fine too.”
In the second season of Broken Continent, Tan Mo said that all the actors had already been decided, and there was no role for Yuan Keqing.
Then for dramas that had not been initiated or had just been initiated, the casting hadn’t started yet. Thus there must be a role for Yuan Keqing!
In his opinion, since it was Kefeng Films’ drama, shouldn’t the female lead role be given to Yuan Keqing?
He had mentioned second and third female leads just to show his politeness.
It wasn’t a big production, and it owned the drama. The actors hadn’t been decided yet.
Then couldn’t Yuan Keqing choose any of the roles?
“Since Yuan Keqing is willing to rely on her efforts, let’s follow the normal procedure and have her manager contact the production team to participate in the audition with other actors. The director will arrange it if he thinks she’s suitable,” Wei Zhiqian said indifferently. “If she can pass the audition, then she will get through. If she can’t, then there’s no other way.”
Yuan Keqing looked at Wei Keli. Wei Keli was under a lot of pressure.
Since the Yuan family had agreed to support him, he had to show some sincerity on his side.
He couldn’t just do nothing and take the money for nothing.
The Yuan family wasn’t a fool.
Therefore, his sincerity was to arrange for Yuan Keqing to enter the production team first. It would be best if he could make Yuan Keqing famous.
It wouldn’t be like those popular A-list actors.
He would first make Yuan Keqing popular to the extent of people would know her name more or less.
After all, it was convenient for Kefeng Videos to invest in the production of a movie and TV series.
If Yuan Keqing could play the female lead role often, even if she wasn’t popular, people would know her existence.
This way, he would be able to handle the Yuan
family.
It was better than he did nothing about it.
Wei Zhijian disagreed and said, “We’re all one family, why do you make it so clear?” “I remember Tan Mo had said that in the beginning, no one was optimistic about Broken Continent, and no one invested in it. But Kefeng Films invested in it in the end,” said Wei Zhijian said with a sullen face. “When no one was optimistic about it, only Kefeng Films invested in it. Wasn’t it because of Tan Mo? And the Tan family was the future in-law of the Wei Family? Since Tan Mo and Tan Jinqi both could enjoy such treatment, what’s so difficult about arranging a role for Yuan Keqing?”
“Kefeng Films didn’t need to invest in a drama specially for Yuan Keqing. It’s just arranging an important role for her. It’s not like Kefeng Films will suffer any losses,” Wei Zhijian said unhappily.
“How can there be no losses?” Wei Zhiqian said coldly. “Is the drama invested by Kefeng Films? Should it take back the investment cost and make some profit? Should it find an actor who can take up the drama, act well, and get the audience’s recognition? Is Yuan Keqing famous? Is her acting skill good? Can she take up the drama well? She has nothing and wants to play an important role? What is she thinking?”
“Who didn’t start from a small role? Why do we make an exception for Yuan Keqing?” Wei Zhiqian said coldly. “Those who relied on the support of their financial backers and acted as female leads are everywhere. How did they start from a small role?” Wei Zhijian said disapprovingly.
“Those people are not from Kefeng Films. Kefeng Films doesn’t do such things,” Wei Zhiqian glanced at Yuan Keqing coldly. “If Yuan Keqing wants to take such a shortcut, then go ahead.”
“Of course, isn’t the Yuan family also willing to invest in her? I heard that they are willing to invest in the second season of Broken Continent. How much money are they willing to invest? Save that money to invest in Yuan Keqing,” sneered Wei Zhiqian.
How could they have the nerve to invest in the second season of Broken Continent?
Wouldn’t the other investors be cursing him?
“In addition, Kefeng Films invested in the first season of Broken Continent not because the Tan family is related to the Wei family. I did make arrangements for Jinqi, but it was only to give him a chance to talk to Kefeng Films.”
