Chapter 180: Casting Confirmed, 'Wolf Warrior' Set to Launch!

Actually.

Long ago.

Before Lin Mo and Re Ba returned to Xin Jiang for the New Year.

He had already had Liu Qin send invitations to the actors he had booked.

Basically it's the original cast.

Wu Song, Ding Haifeng, Yu Qian, the police‑crime film specialist Shi Zhaoqi, and Wu Gang, who has the fury of Dakang.

Of course, 'In the Name of the People' hasn't been released yet, so there's no video of Wu Gang's scene.

As for the female lead.

Lin Mo thought for a moment and decided to have Chen Yao play her.

Her image fits the African‑aid doctor quite well.

Zhuo Yifan, the rich‑second‑generation military enthusiast who runs a factory in Africa.

He plans to have Zhang Yixing play the role.

Anyway, these two roles don't require much acting; just a rough fit will do.

The other people have already been booked.

So Lin Mo took out his phone and called Zhang Yixing.

At that moment, Zhang Yixing was honestly staying at home with his parents.

He never expected that good news would soon knock on his door.

"Yixing, your phone's ringing!" In the living room, Zhang Yixing's mother saw the incoming call on his screen and called out to him.

"Mom, check who it's from!"

Zhang Yixing, who was squatting in the bathroom, shouted back.

He has a habit of not taking his phone to the bathroom, always thinking his foot will go numb.

"Let me see, Brother Lin, the caller ID shows 'Brother Lin'!"

Brother Lin?

Holy crap!

Before the words finished, the toilet flushed.

Then, with a 'clack', the door opened, Zhang Yixing rushed out, snatched the phone, and answered.

His mother muttered beside him, "Why is this kid so careless? Is the call really that important?"

"Brother!"

After the call connected, Zhang Yixing quickly shouted.

Meanwhile, Lin Mo on the other end was puzzled; the phone had rung for ages with no answer, he thought the other side was busy and was about to hang up, but then the call went through.

"Yixing, what have you been busy with lately?" Lin Mo asked with a smile.

"Nothing much, just staying home with my parents, writing songs, that sort of thing," Zhang Yixing replied cheerfully.

"I see, Yixing, you probably heard that I have a new film coming up. There's a role I think suits you perfectly. Interested in giving it a try?"

"Huh?"

Hearing Brother Lin's words.

Zhang Yixing was stunned.

Brother Lin's film...

actually invited me...

This... this...

This feels a bit unreal.

He even thought he was dreaming.

"Hey, Yixing, why are you silent?"

Hearing that, Zhang Yixing quickly recovered: "Yes, yes, yes, brother, I have plenty of time!!!"

"Alright, when the movie starts shooting, I'll let you know!"

"Got it, brother!"

Later.

On the phone, Lin Mo chatted a few more words with Zhang Yixing before hanging up.

After hanging up,

Zhang Yixing excitedly jumped right there.

His parents were left staring dumbfounded.

What's up with this kid today?

"Yixing, what's wrong with you?" his mother asked curiously.

"Dad, Mom, do you know who called me just now? It's Director Lin Mo; his new film has a role that fits me, and he invited me to act!"

"That's Director Lin Mo!!!"

As Zhang Yixing kept talking, he became completely excited.

This godlike fortune finally fell to me!

The same scene played out on the other side.

Chen Yao, now a freshman at Shanghai Theatre Academy, suddenly received a call, personally from manager Liu Qin.

In the call, Liu Qin told her that the Boss's new film was preparing to cast her as the female lead.

Chen Yao was so startled that her phone fell to the ground.

"Yao Yao, what's wrong?" Zhao Lin saw Chen Yao like that and hurriedly asked with concern.

These two have been best friends since childhood, playing together growing up; they both got into Shanghai Theatre Academy, were classmates, and even more coincidentally, they were roommates in the same dorm, bunk beds.

"Lin Lin... I... you quickly pinch me," Chen Yao still couldn't believe her ears.

The next second, Zhao Lin really pinched her once, and Chen Yao felt a pain in her arm.

"Ah, you really pinched me..." Chen Yao shouted.

"No... you told me to pinch you?"

Zhao Lin was dazed, thinking, "What's wrong with these sisters today?"

Possessed?

However.

When she heard Chen Yao say, "Lin Lin, Lin Mo senior brother... his new play is preparing to let me be the female lead..."

Those words came out.

Zhao Lin was dumbfounded.

Ah?

The two looked at each other.

Both were in a state of bewilderment.

"Ah ah ah ah ah, Yao Yao, you're going to be famous!!!" Zhao Lin suddenly exclaimed in delight, "Oh my goodness!"

Back when Morning Light Media signed Chen Yao, she felt that her close friend would definitely become famous in the future.

Unexpectedly...

This day came so quickly!

Indeed.

Chen Yao was completely unprepared mentally.

After she learned this news.

She was really both excited and nervous.

As for why the female lead role in "Wolf Warrior" wasn't given to Re Ba to play.

Mainly because there are intimate scenes.

Moreover, he is now so wealthy.

Making Re Ba go to Feizhou to film a movie—isn't that a punishment?

Furthermore, she still has to record Running Man, and she also took on an urban drama.

Re Ba has somewhat adapted now.

She only takes on dramas she's interested in, or otherwise participates in variety shows and such.

Don't look at Re Ba not appearing much on the big screen, but her resources are more than enough.

Every script is for the female lead.

This is Lin Mo's network in the industry.

Morning Light Media and major entertainment, film and TV companies all have interests generated.

Like those dramas produced by Morning Light.

For each drama, the casting includes actors from each company.

A few days later.

Lin Mo flew to Yanjing.

By the way, he just spoke with San Ye on the phone a couple of days ago.

San Ye is also very interested in his new film.

And Lin Mo's trip this time.

He also met with Teacher Yu Qian, and at the same time went to visit the set of Jiang Wen Laoge's "Evil Cannot Overcome Righteousness".

After getting off the plane.

Wu Jing personally came to pick him up.

After all, the boss has arrived—how could he not receive him?
