Chapter 1252: Chapter 1251: Marching into Hollywood 3
If she debuted in Hollywood as the female lead, imagine how high that starting point would be—it goes without saying!
"Sister Xia Shi, Sister Xia Shi?"
"Hmm, are you calling me?"
Xia Weibao called twice before Xia Shi snapped back to reality.
"Sister Xia Shi, what are you thinking about?"
"It’s nothing, I’m just surprised to have received this script. Take a look."
Xia Shi said as she handed over the script of "Intrigue Within," "This is a film by Director Zhai En. You’ve heard of him, right? A big director in Hollywood—his films are quite reliable. Have a look first."
Xia Weibao took the script and briefly skimmed through it.
"Intrigue Within" is about a Huaxia female spy infiltrating the Western intelligence agency to steal information but ends up developing feelings for the agency’s leader, blurring her beliefs for love.
She unintentionally discovers that the male lead knew her identity all along and purposely used her feelings to counter-spy, leading her to betray her country.
During the arrest, she escapes and confronts the man again, filled with hatred, culminating in a life-and-death duel.
It is only then that the male lead realizes he has already fallen in love with the female lead and decides to imprison her in his residence.
One reason is to protect her from being captured and executed, and the other is to keep her by his side.
The final twist reveals that everything was a scheme by the female lead—the counter-spy situation was fake, the betrayal was fake, all set up for the mission.
Love within love, intrigue within intrigue.
In the end, the female lead gains power but loses love.
There’s a lot of fighting, and Hollywood effects are amazing; this kind of film is the most thrilling.
Xia Weibao’s eyes sparkled as she read it—Zhai En is indeed a talented director, and this script is just too good.
The key is there are fight scenes!
"Sister Xia Shi, did we receive a casting invitation?"
Actually, she was a bit puzzled. Usually, casting calls provide a notice, then you go for an audition, and only after passing and signing the contract do you get the script.
How come the entire script was sent over directly?
And this isn’t just a part of the script; it’s the whole thing!
Zhai En is quite bold, isn’t he? Not worried about script leaks?
Xia Shi’s expressionless face, "It’s not an audition notice. Director Zhai En is satisfied with your looks, has seen your fight scenes, and knows you have a martial arts background. He thinks highly of you and has already preselected you as the female lead."
"What?!"
"What?!"
Xia Weibao and Leng Yan were both shocked—directly preselected as the female lead?
Holy shit!
They really hit the jackpot this time!
Xia Shi nodded, "That’s right, he personally named you as the female lead and sent the script over for your consideration.
I think this is an opportunity; if you take this film, you can directly launch your international career.
Yan Weiyang has been in Hollywood for a year and only played a few minor roles. Even so, she’s called the Eastern Pearl. If you succeed as a Hollywood female lead, you’ll be the true Eastern Pearl.
Will you take it?"
"Yes, why not take it?"
Xia Weibao said.
Her fame in the country is already high enough. She had planned to gradually move internationally this year, but she didn’t expect such a golden opportunity to drop right on her head!
The film "Intrigue Within" is practically a direct ticket to Hollywood, isn’t it?
"Alright, then I won’t arrange any other engagements for you and focus solely on shooting this film."
Leng Yan almost knelt down and called Xia Weibao his boss!
Betting on the right treasure, this time his company’s house, car, and goddess are all coming back!
