Obviously, Shi Zhan also saw them, but he didn't seem surprised, and his expression remained indifferent.

The two of them were arranged by the staff to another rest area.

Wu Youyou felt that Shi Zhan's gaze was always lingering on her, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.

He told himself that they had broken up and it was his freedom to decide who to bring here. She had no right to interfere and didn't want to.

Just then, Wu Youyou's phone rang, and the caller ID showed it was Shi Yuan. This was the first time he had called her since he said they were forming an alliance.

Wu Youyou picked up the phone and said calmly, "Hey, you called me, I guess you know that Wei Ziyao and Shi Zhan are together!"

There was a chuckle from the other end of the phone, "How smart! I need your help!"

"What help?" Wu Youyou asked puzzledly.

"I hope you can stop Wei Ziyao from interviewing for the role in "The Empress of China"!" Shi Yuan said.

"What? She wants to act? Has she chosen any role?" Wu Youyou frowned.

She doesn't want Wei Ziyao to star in her play!

Shi Yuan on the other end of the phone touched his nose and said nonchalantly, "Female No. 1!"

Wu Youyou thought to herself after hearing this, wow, Wei Ziyao actually fell in love with the leading actress. When she thought of Wei Ziyao's acting skills in her previous life, she really wanted to curse!

She said coldly, "How can you be sure that I can stop it!"

"Because you are the big boss, you have the final say." Shi Yuan's tone was indifferent but mixed with arrogance.

"You investigated me!" Wu Youyou was unhappy.

"As allies, of course we need to understand each other!" Shi Yuan said lightly.

Wu Youyou hung up the phone and turned to look in Shi Zhan's direction, just in time to meet his dark and deep eyes. Her heart beat faster and she quickly avoided his sight.

She was thinking in her mind how to stop Wei Ziyao from auditioning, and even if she did, she would not be used.

At this time, Zhai Ming walked in with two big stars. There was obviously one more person among them. That person exuded a noble temperament, with a tall body and handsome face. When he glanced at everyone, his eyes were full of disdain, as if no one here was worthy of being in the same space with him.

When his eyes fell on the area where Shi Zhan was, he was visibly stunned. It was obvious that they knew each other.

After Zhai Ming arranged them in a spacious area, he gave them a few instructions and walked towards Wu Youyou.

Wu Youyou asked curiously, "Who is that person?"

Of course Zhai Ming knew who she was asking about, and answered softly, "His identity is very mysterious. When I went out to meet him, I saw rows of bodyguards, all of whom were his men. Judging from their demeanor, they are obviously not ordinary people. We'd better not provoke him!"

Wu Youyou frowned and thought, wondering, apart from the people from the four major families, who else could be so majestic?

She decided to keep her distance and avoid unnecessary trouble.

She suddenly thought of Shi Yuan's words, and then she told Zhai Ming, "Boss Zhai, when you select the male and female protagonists, don't let everyone know that I'm a shareholder. I believe in your vision, so please do a preliminary screening first."

Zhai Ming nodded to show his understanding.

He knew that Wu Youyou would definitely take the people she brought with her into consideration, but filming also depended on ability. If an unsuitable person was chosen for the role, it would be irresponsible to the company and even more so to his shareholders. Moreover, the company's current strength was not strong, and if it wanted to develop, it must be supported by excellent works.

Therefore, he believes that no matter which side the person is from, if he is not suitable, he will not choose him.

Just then, the girl at the company's front desk came over and whispered something in Zhai Ming's ear.

Zhai Ming immediately stood up, looking a little nervous, "Boss Wu, there's a distinguished guest over there, I have to go over there."

Wu Youyou glanced and saw that the distinguished guests he was talking about were Shi Zhan and Wei Ziyao. She didn't say anything, but nodded to indicate that he could go over.

Although she couldn't hear clearly what Zhai Ming and Shi Zhan were talking about, seeing Zhai Ming's respectful yet embarrassed look, Wu Youyou guessed that they came here just to compete for the leading actress.

Wu Qifeng glanced at Shi Zhan, then at Yang Manman, and then said slowly, "It seems that today's election for the leading role is not going very smoothly."

Yang Min was also a little nervous. As a new actress, she lacked experience and it was entirely thanks to her best friend that she got this interview opportunity.

She felt like it was a fight between gods and didn't know how to deal with it.

When Wei Ziyao heard that Zhai Ming could not give her the female lead directly, her face suddenly changed.

She stood up and said to Zhai Ming in a proud tone, "Director Zhai, you can't do this. I can bring in funds as long as you give me the leading female role!"

Zhai Ming is facing a very tricky problem. The opponent's strength should not be underestimated, and it is not wise to offend them.

Just as he was hesitating, Yang Manman sneered coldly, "Nowadays everyone thinks they can play the leading role."

When Wei Ziyao heard this, she immediately turned around, the arrogance in her eyes not diminishing at all, "Who the hell are you? How dare you insinuate me!"

Yang Manman was not afraid at all. She stood up suddenly. Her black strapless dress looked like the wings of a black swan, exuding great confidence and momentum.

She said coldly, "I am determined to win the leading female role. With me here, you have no chance at all."

"You..." Wei Ziyao's chest heaved up and down with anger.

At this time, Shi Zhan spoke up, "Okay, let's study the script. You guys compete fairly and don't embarrass Director Zhai!"

Shi Zhan frowned, thinking that accompanying her here to make trouble once was already enough to give the old man face.

Wei Ziyao looked at Shi Zhan with dissatisfaction, "She scolded me!"

Shi Zhan responded coldly, "Then study the script carefully and defeat her on stage in an hour!"

"well said!"

Shi Zhan raised his eyes, and his gaze collided with that of the noble man in the air. Everyone present was shocked by this invisible force.

"Tang Chuxuan——" Shi Zhan shouted.

"Oh, you still remember me!" Tang Chuxuan's lips curled up into an arc, like a smile, but also like coldness.

Although he was dissatisfied in his heart, he still maintained his composure on the surface.

"Hmph~" Shi Zhan simply ignored the other party.

Tang Chuxuan was immediately furious. What are you so arrogant about? His status and position are not as high as mine, but he is even more arrogant than me.

Yang Manman shook Tang Chuxuan's arm, her voice charming and soft, as if it could seduce the soul, "Brother Tang, look how rude they are! But they are right, the truth will be revealed on the stage. I will study the script carefully!"

"Oh my, my beauty, you are so sensible. I like the way you are sensible."

After hearing this, Yang Manman was very pleased. She twisted her slender waist and sat down to read the script.

After watching the excitement, Wu Youyou and others also calmed down!

Yang Min pointed in a direction and said, "Youyou, do you think the people over there are also here to compete for the male and female lead?"

Wu Youyou followed her gaze and fell into deep thought.

There were more than a dozen people there, all of whom looked like hot stars in recent years.

Wu Youyou turned around and said firmly: "You need to fight for your own opportunities. Everything depends on your strength. Are you ready?"

She watched them, waiting for their response.

Yang Min and Wu Qifeng nodded solemnly, indicating that they were ready.

Soon, everyone was called to a spacious room with a stage specially prepared for actors to audition. Zhai Ming not only made all the preparations in advance, but also distributed scripts to all the actors who were ready to participate in the election.

Yang Min and Wu Qifeng also got the script, and they only had one hour to study it.
