Top Star: Journey To Become A Global Star 123 Chapter 123. Two Projects?

Chapter 123. Two projects?

The story starts with Leo, once a famous singer singing on a stage where he is disrupted by a angry fan and ends up fighting him.

It was revealed that he was once a famous singer but because of his alcohol addiction, his career is in ruins.

He later goes to a bar in a state of drunkenness and listens to a young singer singing his own song.

He was stunned to see that she was singing his song better than him.

After the song finished, he goes to her and reveals himself and promised her, that he will made her a big singer.

The girl introduce herself as Cao Fei, a small bar singer.

She was stunned to see Leo and was overjoyed when he said that he will made her a big singer.

That's how the story started in the «A born star».

It was a musical drama which has both intense moments and heartbreaking parts.

"You want to act in this?"

Jiang Wan said as he looked at Ren with wide eyes. He was looking like he don't whether Ren was joking or not.

Besides him, Director Kang was also looking at him, but she has a rather interested look on her face.

White bear was also sitting besides Jiang Wan. He had a a bit of jet lag before but after listening to Ren, he was wide awake.

"Yes, I want to act in this. I am certain."

"No, don't give me a shock so suddenly.…..And who is the one besides you?"

Jiang Wan said as he pointed to Ren's back. He was pointing at Ying Yue, who was standing behind Ren with a fl.u.s.tered expression.

"She's the director and writer of this project."

"Oh! She's the director!"

"Yes, my name is Ying Yue, I am a rookie director"

Ying Yue said as she bowed slightly.

By her demeanor, everyone in the room understood one thing.

'She's a new director who hasn't even directed a single movie.'

Jiang Wan complexion changed more severe when he heard that. He looked like he will get a heart attack soon.

Even White bear was not making his usual face.

"Ren, she's a new director."

"Yes, I know that."

"You still wanted to do her project."

"Yes."

Ren said and nodded and there was a silence in the air after that.

"I knew you were not someone to look for a famous director or a writer for a project but you are going with a rookie director this time."

Director Kang said as she glanced at Ying Yue. She continued.

"You went with a rookie writer for your drama and now, a rookie director and even for a movie. I don't know if you are risky or what."

"But I made success with the drama."

Jiang Wan sighed when he heard that. He rubbed his temples as he said.

"Movie business is completely different and going with a rookie director isn't a smart choice when you have choices."

"You even said that the movie was a musical drama."

White bear added.

"Yes, it's a musical drama."

"Ren, you have to understand why making a good musical drama is a hard job. A musical drama not only needs a good screenplay, but also a good alb.u.m."

Director Park nodded at that and said.

"Yes, you need a good alb.u.m for it. The movie will not work if there are no good songs. You have to hire music producers and composers for that."

"I know all that but I still want to do this project."

Ren said as he said with conviction.

Jiang Wan again sighed when he heard that.

"You said that but for a project like this, we need huge investment. You don't even have a investor, right."

He said as he glanced at Ying Yue.

Ying Yue eyes shook when she heard that. She felt that she would lose this opportunity if she just stayed silent, so she opened her mouth.

"I, I know I am inexperienced and you don't think that I can lead this project. I don't even have investors, but I think, no I am sure that this project will be a success."

She said as she started saying about all the things as to why she thinks the project will be a success.

And although her words were not much, Jiang Wan expression shook silently.

In the CEO's office.

After CEO w.a.n.g has left, after talking with CEO Xu, both CEO Xu and Director Zhao was having a talk.

"So, you want Xin Ren to do that project."

"Yes, Director Lu, the director of «Vagabond» did a favour on me previously. He wants Ren to play a role in it, I can't refuse."

"But what if Ren rejected the movie?"

Director Zhao asked that and CEO Xu laughed slowly as she said.

"That would be interesting. I want to see if he will reject it or not."

She didn't think that he would reject it. Very rarely has someone rejected her.

She thought it would be interesting if he really did that.

"But you are not the type to do something for a favour. Are there any other reasons behind your decision?"

"Xin Ren has not acted in a unsuccessful project since his debut. He has only acted in successful projects, has he not?"

"Yes, I know. So, do you selected this project because it has less chances of becoming a flop."

"You can say that."

CEO Xu said as she leaned in her leather chair.

Even Chu Min has given some flops, only Ren was still successful.

Although people hasn't noticed it yet, it can become a good reason for promotion later.

"You know, I think Ren will reject it."

"Do you really think that?"

Director Zhao nodded and said with a confident tone.

"Yes, he is a complete different celebrity than I had seen. He can never be predicated and he don't do projects he don't like. I think he will reject it."

"Then, what do you think he will select as his next project."

"I don't know. I am expecting something completely unexpected."

"I want to see it then."

CEO Xu has a wide grin when she said that. She looked interested to know if Ren will reject her or not.
