Top Star: Journey To Become A Global Star 43 Chapter 43. Persuading

Chapter 43. Persuading

"You said that you wanted to act in this."

White bear said to Ren as he looked at him with a bewildered expression. He was not able to understand if it was a joke or not.

They were currently sitting in the meeting room A, waiting for Jiang Wan to arrive.

"Yeah, I liked it very much."

"Why this? I don't think this is interesting."

White bear said as he flipped the pages of the synopsis.

"You have not even read the whole synopsis yet."

"I read the general synopsis and I think it's fun, but for a novel, not a drama."

White bear said as he slightly frowned but Ren was still adamant on his decision.

He knew how to persuade White bear.

"Don't you have trust in me?"

"Hah??"

White bear was not able to answer instantly when Ren asked that question with a smiling face.

He opened and closed his mouth like an idiot as he pondered on what to say. He of course had full trust in him.

It's been four years since he had met him and he himself had seen how much he had grown and by working by his side, he also have developed a complete trust in him.

Especially in the last few months, he had exponentially grown in both his acting and personality.

"Well, I trust you but….I don't think the chief will like it. I mean, it's not a public network drama and it's doesn't even have a interesting story."

"No, it has a great story."

Ren retorted White bear sentence as he started explaining about the main content of the story and how it will progress.

Of course, he kept it as the minimum to avoid any suspicions.

"Although the story is fine, it's still a ha.s.sle and don't you think you should select a project that is more likely to succeed instead of taking a gamble."

'I wish I can tell him that the drama is bound to be a big hit.'

Ren thought in his heart and lamented on the fact that he can't tell White bear about it. It was a secret that he can't tell anybody, not even to the people closest to him.

"Well, I wanted to do this project because I got a feeling that it will succeed, can't you place your trust in me?"

Ren said he looked straight into White bear's eyes. His eyes were full of certainty and he was really eager to do this project.

White bear can also see it by looking into his eyes. Because of this, he was struggling if he should trust his place in him.

After pondering over it for a bit, White bear finally decided on his answer.

'A manager should trust his actor.'

White bear fully believed this thought and because of this, he decided to support Ren in it.

"Okay, I will help you persuade the chief."

"I know you will help me for sure. Thanks, you are the best."

Ren said with a smile as he thought that he was glad that White bear was his manager.

The relations.h.i.+p between a manager and a actor is mainly a business relations.h.i.+p. Because of this, many times managers wanted the actors to act according to them.

It can easily cause a rift in their relations.h.i.+ps. It is also the reason that many actors would change their managers or even companies.

Actors who had a good relations.h.i.+p with their managers are rare. Ren was glad that he had a good relations.h.i.+p with White bear.

As he was happily talking with White bear, the door to the room suddenly opened only to reveal Jiang Wan and Director Zhao.

"Chief, Director Zhao..."

Both Ren and White bear stood up from their seats when they saw Director Zhao.

They were working with Jiang Wan for sometime now and they both knew his personality. He was not that much strict, at least with greetings.

But Director Zhao was a different case. Ren hadn't met him much and he also didn't knew much about him.

Although he knew that he do not have much of a strict personality, he still was the head of the acting department and a member of board of directors.

"You don't have to stand up. It's not a formal meeting. I just came as I was free."

Director Zhao said as he gestured Ren and White bear to sit down.

"Yeah, sit down, let's start the meeting quickly."

Jiang Wan said as he and Director Zhao took their respective seats across Ren and White bear.

"Let's start the meeting. Let's first discuss the topic about your next project and then, I have something special for you."

"Something special?"

Ren said with a confused look when he heard that. He only thought that it was a meeting about his next project, he didn't knew that there was something more to it.

"We will reveal it later but don't worry, it's not a bad news."

Jiang Wan said as he made a meaningful glance at him. He wanted to know more but he just gloss over it as the meeting started soon.

"Let's first talk about the drama that will release in the first quarter of the next year. There is several dramas releasing at that time but we decided to choose a safe project."

Jiang Wan said as he placed some doc.u.ments on the table.

"First will be CTS's Mon/Tues drama «College dreams» that will air from February. It is a love comedy and it would not be hard to get a role of a second or third male lead in it."

"Yeah, I heard it has a good story and has a capable director. Moreover, it will also be brodcasted on Xstar videos, it will be seen by thousands of people, so there is a major possibility of your fans growing after it."

Director Zhao said as he added. He looked to be very optimistic about this project.

Well, considering that, it will also be brodcasted on Xstar videos, a major internet video site, it was considerable.

"Well, if you don't want we can also go for SKB crime thriller, «The killer», I heard his story and it was full of suspense, you have a intense role in your last movie, you will be able to easily took the role, I think you can even play the part of the villain, In crime thrillers like this, the villains have the most important role."

"But he's image will be same if we go for that. He's got a nice face and he has a nice personality, I don't want his image to be of someone who can only play negative roles, I think it will be good if we select something lighter."

"Yeah, I think you are right, Director Zhao. Let's go through some more romantic comedies and try to decide on one."

"Yeah, it would be best."

As Jiang Wan and Director Zhao was discussing excitedly, Ren and White bear were only sitting in silence.

They were just listening to their conversation while thinking of a time to interrupt them.

'I have to hurry.'

Ren thought as he placed his hands on the synopsis of «The stars above». He glanced at White bear with the corner of his eyes and took a deep breath as he said.

"Chief, Director Zhao, I have a project I am interested in."
