At least with Xiao Rufeng, her plans had been going well. Su Xiaofei thought. Xiao Rufeng had managed to get the female lead role for the series 'Demonville', while Ye Mingyu ended up getting the second female lead role and to play as Xiao Rufeng's best friend.
Ye Mingyu must be seething in anger right now, knowing that Xiao Rufeng had stolen her thunder right under her nose. Since she had decided to obstruct Su Xiaofei's way, she shouldn't be surprised if the latter retaliated.
Su Xiaofei didn't doubt Xiao Rufeng's ability, but the young woman really had to work on her patience. If Tang Liyan was as ek as a lamb, Xiao Rufeng had a tendency to bare her fangs whenever she was provoked by soone, especially her own younger sister.
Xiao Rufeng was obviously ecstatic, hearing the news from Su Xiaofei.
"I'll do my best, President Su! I will make sure to bring glory to Bluedia with my performance!"
Su Xiaofei chuckled at her eagerness and shook her head. She handed the script to Xiao Rufeng and smiled. She really thought that Xiao Rufeng had the potential to beco a queen in showbiz like her senior, Tang Liyan, but Xiao Rufeng obviously needed to learn more about her craft.
"Miss Xiao should know not to promise sothing you don't have at the mont. It's enough that you do your best for your own sake and not to give the company any troubles in the future."
Xiao Rufeng's face flushed at that and bit her lower lip in sha. She almost got Su Xiaofei in trouble from her last project, although she wasn't the one who started the fight with her fellow actors. If Su Xiaofei hadn't co that day, Xiao Rufeng knew that she would be in serious trouble later.
"I know, President Su. I will be more careful this ti." She replied.
Xiao Rufeng was still working on her temper and had been trying various ways to improve it. Most of the ti, she would remind herself of what her manager told her before.
'Think before you speak. In the heat of the mont, it's easy to say sothing you'll later regret. As soon as you're thinking clearly, express your frustration in an assertive but non confrontational way. State your concerns and needs clearly and directly, without hurting others or trying to control them.' Su Xiaofei once told her.
With Ye Mingyu being part of the production, Xiao Rufeng knew that it was possible that the latter would try to stir up trouble and try to drag Su Xiaofei in it. Xiao Rufeng decided then that she won't give Ye Mingyu any chance to sche against them.
"Right. If possible, please remind everyone why you are chosen for this role and not the other actresses that auditioned for it. This could be your break, so don't waste your chance and grab it."
Many people have committed this mistake in their lives, not taking advantage of the opportunity presented to them and regret it later. Su Xiaofei had also done this and regretted it till the very end.
Xiao Rufeng didn't miss the subtle aning of her manager's words and nodded. Su Xiaofei had been patient with her for the past five years and allowed her to play several roles, not allowing her to play the sa role twice. This was why, when soone checked on her portfolio, they would be surprised to find that she could also play a villain and roles not many actors would dare to portray.
Compared to Ye Mingyu who was still new in the industry, Xiao Rufeng had slowly, but surely built up her portfolio over the years. She understood why Su Xiaofei had been giving her odd roles and asking her to audition for nurous notable films and TV series she eventually starred on. Most of those projects were hits and the films, blockbuster.
It was only natural that the director and the producers would pick her over Ye Mingyu, who hadn't proven anything yet for the female lead role. Su Xiaofei must have known and was confident that she would get the lead role this ti with her prior experience and roles she previously portrayed.
Still, Xiao Rufeng had to give so credit to Ye Mingyu. Surely, Ye Mingyu securing the second female lead role ant that she wasn't just a pretty face that Mo Yuchen supported during the audition.
"Then what about Ye Mingyu? Should I be wary of her?"
Su Xiaofei crossed her legs and rested her chin on the back of her right hand, contemplating how to answer Xiao Rufeng's question. Knowing Ye Mingyu's personality, she was sure that since Xiao Rufeng had been chosen for the lead role, Ye Mingyu might do sothing during the production to injure Xiao Rufeng.
Who would benefit the most if the female lead was injured? Wouldn't it be the second female lead instead? If Xiao Rufeng ended up injured, the production crew would obviously replace her with Ye Mingyu to avoid delaying the filming schedule.
As for how Su Xiaofei knew about this… well… didn't Ye Mingyu pull the sa trick on her? In everyone's eyes, Ye Mingyu might be a goddess that couldn't harm others, but under that facade, she was no different from Su Xiaofei who had a blackened heart.
When it ca to scheming with others, Ye Mingyu was way better than Su Xiaofei in their previous life. However, now that Su Xiaofei had sowhat gotten her senses back, it would be difficult for Ye Mingyu to defeat her with her level of scheming.
"You don't have to befriend her or anything. I only ask that you don't accept any food or drinks from her and to make sure to double-no, triple check the props you are about to use during the filming. If you're injured, the one who would reap the benefits would be her."
Xiao Rufeng's eyes widened upon the implication of her manager's words, but understood well that Ye Mingyu still had the chance to snatch the role from her at any given mont.
