Chapter 84: A Role Tailor-Made for Xiao Tian!

Returned to Mo Du.

Lin Mo first went to the company and walked around.

Just fulfilling my duty as the boss.

Then I went to visit Teacher Wang.

This time.

Lin Mo looked for Teng Hua Tao because he had a script ready for him to direct.

No way.

The company only has these few directors.

Moreover, a new director might not be able to pull it off.

As for Teng Dao,

Lin Mo is still fairly familiar with him.

He's still got a hand at directing urban and school dramas.

As long as he doesn't shoot sci-fi, everything's fine!

Now, aside from Shen Teng and Xiao Tian, the company's artists

The others have all taken on roles, with shows currently filming.

As for Shen Teng,

As the company's pillar, he can't just randomly take on roles, lest he damage his reputation.

And Xiao Tian,

Although she appeared in The Richest Man in Xihong City this time, playing the female lead.

But her fame is just so-so.

So this time Lin Mo specially arranged a drama for her.

Little Joy.

She can play the female lead, Qiao Yingzi.

This image is simply perfect for her.

Pure, cute, beautiful!

After developing depression later, this role is very challenging.

It suits her very well.

As for her acting skills,

Lin Mo believes she has no problem.

The next day, at noon.

Lin Mo found a quiet place.

He had an appointment.

The person hadn't arrived yet, so he was there boredly scrolling his phone, looking at his friends' posts.

Thud… thud… thud

The private room door was lightly knocked, breaking Lin Mo's train of thought.

"Come in!" Lin Mo's voice sounded.

"Senior Brother!"

A clear voice rang out, and Xiao Tian's figure came into view.

She had just arrived in Mo Du the previous night, and upon seeing Lin Mo, her face was full of joy.

This girl had long been eager to act.

Mainly because she was bored at home.

"Yo, you came so early, Xiao Tian!" Lin Mo stood up, waved enthusiastically at her, gesturing for her to sit.

After she sat down, Lin Mo asked concernedly, "How was your vacation back home? Was it fun?"

Xiao Tian shook her little head like a rattle drum, saying, "Not fun, too boring!"

Seeing her like that, Lin Mo couldn't fail to notice.

She must have gone home, where a bunch of relatives showed up.

After all.

Your relatives' kid suddenly became a big star overnight.

You've got to go and curry favor with them.

The two chatted for a while.

Not long after, the private room door was pushed open again, with Director Xu and Sister Tao Hong arriving together.

"Junior Brother, Junior Sister!"

Xu Zheng entered the door, immediately flashing his signature smile, and greeted the two warmly.

"Senior Brother, Sister Tao Hong!" Lin Mo replied with a smile.

Xiao Tian quickly stood up to greet them.

As for Director Xu, Lin Mo knows him too well.

Sister Tao Hong had also met him once before, at the movie premiere. (Hey, I didn't mention it, doesn't mean I didn't see her... just too many people, couldn't be bothered to mention it; just assume Xu Zheng brought her to the previous premiere and they met.)

"Director Lin, long time no see!" Sister Tao Hong greeted with a beaming smile.

"Xiao Tian, you're getting prettier and prettier!" She then turned to Xiao Tian and complimented her.

After exchanging pleasantries, they all sat down together.

Director Xu's gaze fell on Lin Mo, half-joking half-serious as he said: "You little rascal, you've been keeping busy lately—just finished one drama, and now you're nonstop preparing the next? Watch out, don't overreach or you'll pull something!"

Between the lines, this also reveals Xu Zheng's concern for Lin Mo.

"I'm not just trying to make more money, senior brother—you know, in Mo Du, every inch of land is worth its weight in gold~" Lin Mo said with a smile.

Xu Zheng laughed and scolded: "Come on, you're filthy rich now, rolling in wealth!"

"Not at all!"

"The Richest Man in Xihong City—you've made at least ten small targets, it's infuriating how people compare themselves; you've made me angry!"

"Just earning some hard-earned money!"

"Get lost!"

"Haha!"

"......"

The chat atmosphere was very harmonious.

Nobody brought up the script voluntarily.

It was just like chatting about family matters.

Because, there's still one person missing.

Here they are.

Just then, the conversation turned to Teng Hua Tao.

Speak of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao appears!

He pushed the door and walked in!

"Old Teng!"

"Director Teng!"

"Old Xu, Sister Hong!"

After a lively round of greetings, they reseated themselves.

Lin Mo, Xu Zheng, Teng Hua Tao, and Tao Hong chatted enthusiastically, while Xiao Tian sat quietly aside, listening attentively.

They chatted for a while.

Finally, they got to the point.

As they chatted, the topic naturally turned to the main subject, and Teng Hua Tao seemed eager: "Boss Lin, you urgently called me over, saying you have a good script—quickly tell me about it!"

He had received Lin Mo's call a couple of days ago, saying he had a script and wanted him to direct it.

But he hadn't yet specified what kind of script it was.

Teng Hua Tao's heart was itching.

"Yes yes yes, junior brother, tell us about your script—you're not also planning to cast Xiao Tao Hong in a role, are you?"

Xu Zheng also chimed in.

Tao Hong didn't speak, but his eyes stared straight at Lin Mo.

Likewise, he was very eager for his script.

Lin Mo's reputation in the circle is now extraordinary.

He's not only a director but also a screenwriter, and his eye for scripts is ruthlessly sharp.

Any script he approves, once filmed, never loses money—it's a huge profit!

Who knows how many actors now want to work with Lin Mo!

As for Xiao Tian...

She doesn't even need to be mentioned.

Senior brother is her idol!

Lin Mo took a light sip of tea, then slowly said: "Alright, seeing how eager you are, let's talk about this script!"

He briefly described the Little Joy script, as well as the roles Tao Hong and Xiao Tian would play.

A story about three families preparing for the college entrance exam.

He only heard a rough outline.

Upon hearing it, Teng Hua Tao's eyes lit up; his intuition told him the script was promising and worth watching.

Tao Hong also listened with relish, especially when Lin Mo mentioned the role of Song Qian, which really sparked her interest.

This role is complex and multifaceted: it has the vulnerability and strength of a single mother, as well as excessive control and expectations toward her daughter—extremely challenging and highly topical.

Teng Hua Tao joked: "Boss Lin, is this script tailor-made for Xiao Tian? The role of Qiao Yingzi seems made just for her!"

That line made everyone laugh; Xiao Tian blushed, but her eyes sparkled with anticipation.

"Definitely—Xiao Tian is now the leading lady of my company!"

Lin Mo laughed heartily and said.

Then he turned to Tao Hong and said: "Tao Hong, how about this role—isn't it quite challenging? ~"

Upon hearing it, Tao Hong couldn't hide her smile; she clapped her hands and laughed brightly: "Oh, Director Lin, your words have really moved me—plus there's such a cute, lovely 'daughter' to act opposite, I'll take this role!"

Just like that.

The director and lead actress for the Little Joy script have been finalized.

Not to mention the script is good.

Even if the script were bad, they'd still be willing to take it.

In the entertainment circle, it's all about navigating human relations!
