Perhaps her voice was too soft, or maybe the people behind were too engrossed, but no response came from the back until she suddenly exclaimed with an “Ah”.

Bo Yan looked back and noticed Xia Siyu browsing through his script, several of his scripts piled beside her hand, which she had apparently finished reading.

“l like this character, it’s well-defined, and the story is quite good.”

Bo Yan realized the script in her hand was from a rising director who had given it to him. He had worked with this director before; although not very famous, the director was talented and had crafted a solid screenplay. However, being a newcomer, the director wouldn’t have a large budget, meaning the pay wouldn’t be much, and it might even require Bo to cover some expenses or invest in it.

But indeed, this was the person he intended to collaborate with next.

He hadn’t expected that Xia Siyu would also be fond of the script.

The female protagonist in the script was certainly a complex and multifaceted character, struggling through the plight of the lower class while also displaying an aspirational side, and ultimately, hers was a tragic role that diverged from the male lead’s path. Her character was well-developed, and the story was compelling. He had never before considered what it would feel like to offer Xia Siyu this role, since she had always played the innocent ingénue, and at most, was the second leading lady in “Storm,” a role akin to a glamorous figurehead.

Could she, with this layered and nuanced character entrusted to her, bring the role to life successfully? She lacked profound life experience and hadn’t undergone systematic acting training. Though she indeed carried a certain spiritual energy when acting, he seriously doubted her ability to fully grasp and embody the character.

Not to mention, with the production team short on both fame and funds and led by an emerging director, it was highly unlikely her prominent agent, Qin Baizhou, would agree to it. Qin had always been about optimizing time and maximizing efficiency. Such underfunded projects carried significant risks, and it was probable that, given Qin’s character, he wouldn’t consent to her participation.

“Are you considering this role?”

Although Bo was 99 percent sure she wouldn’t be able to take the role, he still asked.

Xia Siyu nodded casually, “The other scripts I’ve been offered are either sappy sweet or whiny and melodramatic. I can’t even bring myself to finish them, let alone the audience. Today’s audience isn’t easy to fool; it’s not like the old days. After looking through them, this one still seems more appealing.”

Bo was slightly surprised; Xia Siyu had always been known for her airheadedness, asking the least during script read-throughs, simply performing whatever she was asked. Though the results were usually not bad, could it be that she was just stumbling through it all by accident?

But now, it seemed she actually had her own unique insight into scripts, at least her intuition was remarkable.

“Considering your current status… taking on this might be a bit difficult,” he said, appreciatively, yet wanted to remain realistic.

“What’s so difficult about it? I’m not short on cash. If it turns out well, I could even do it for no fee, or I could invest. Or are you questioning my acting abilities?”

Xia Siyu rolled her eyes, leaving Bo at a loss for words.

He paused for a moment before saying, “If you’re truly considering it, I could help you make contact. Although he’s a new director, the team behind him is quite capable, and he himself is talented and creative. However,”

He paused, then added, “If you play this role, we’d likely end up living together for the next six months..”
