Song Ci’s Opportunity
Almost all of the cast in “Rushing For Ten Years” became famous.
Song Ci gained the most fans after Lu Jingming and Lin Ting. She was rather surprised. After all, her role was quite tricky. He Lian Er was good at fighting and she wanted to protect her sister. However, she should not upstage the female lead. It was important to balance those elements.
Song Ci’s new fans began digging up her old videos.
[ She improved so much in such a short time! ]
[ I bet she practiced in secret. How amazing! ]
When Lu Jingming and Lin Ting were interviewed, they were also asked about Song Ci’s performance.
Lu Jingming replied without any hesitation, “Song Ci is very hardworking. For a year, she did not accept any roles and focused solely on practicing. It paid off. She even helped me with my scenes and gave solid advice. I’m thankful to her till this day.”
Lin Ting added, “Same goes for me. Sister Song Ci is undoubtedly talented. I hope that everyone enjoys her character.”
After being praised by Lu Jingming and Lin Ting, Song Ci’s name became the hot search once again.
David was confused by the outcome.
‘I thought she didn’t work for a year because nobody wanted to hire her.’
Regardless, Song Ci had made a huge improvement. It was as if she had become a completely different person.
David recalled his poor treatment of Song Ci during that time.
‘Hold on… Did she practice non-stop because of my criticisms?! I can’t believe I terminated the contract before giving her another chance.’
David could not help but feel a little regretful. He had basically handed a priceless treasure to Yang Haoran!
In the end, David decided to contact Song Ci.
Song Ci was puzzled when she received David’s call.
“What’s the matter, David?”
After hearing that, David thought to himself, ‘Song Ci is not acting high and mighty towards me even though she’s famous now. She must be grateful for my criticisms.’
“Song Ci, tell me the truth. Did you practice non-stop because of my criticisms?”
David’s tone was gentle, unlike in the past.
“…”
The misunderstanding was not completely unexpected. Other than Song Yujin, nobody knew “Song Ci” had been replaced.
Anyway, Song Ci had no intention of explaining the truth to David. She just brushed him off and hung up. If they talked anymore, he would probably start scheming.
Meanwhile, Yang Haoran contacted Director Chen and sent him Song Ci’s traffic statistics. He wanted him to consider Song Ci again for the role. The title of a genius young actress would definitely attract a lot of viewers.
Director Chen had not decided on the cast yet.
Tian Tian was actually picked, but her schedule was tight. Hence, she decided to decline.
Director Chen had auditioned a few more actresses, but he was not satisfied with their performances.
Fortunately, Song Ci’s popularity erupted. This was her best shot at getting the role.
