The Side Character's Hidden Boss!

Nie Li studied the file in her hands and she frowned.

“It’s been confirmed that the casting is switched?” Ran Ya’s manager looked at Nie Li with some dissatisfaction.

The cause behind this could be traced back to 2 days ago when Quan Yu called Nie Li.

“I’ve just finished my work. Let’s find a time to chat within these 2 days. Are you still looking for investor for the drama, Lady in the Snow?” That question was enough to make Nie Li’s blood boil.

“Well, well, well. Isn’t it the Quan Family’s rules to not invest in the entertainment industry? Will those old antiques agree with…”

“I’m now the shot-caller of the Quan Family.” Since the brat said that, what else could Nie Li say? “So about the investment of the drama…”

Nie Li chuckled, “Have you heard of people complaining about having too big a budget? Of course, I’m still looking for investors!

“This is going to be your first venture into the entertainment industry. Help those antiques back home broaden their horizons lest they think that people like myself in the entertainment industry are always up to no good. Don’t worry, as your little aunt, I guarantee your investment won’t be a loss!”

“Hmm… That doesn’t matter… But will Mo Li join the cast as well?” Quan Yu heard that this was a big IP adaptation. If Mo Li could participate in the project, it would be a boost to her career. Even though Mo Li didn’t look like she intend to pursue a career in the entertainment industry, she genuinely seemed to enjoy acting.

Nie Li on the other end of the phone smiled. No wonder this kid suddenly wants to invest in a drama production. It’s all for Mo Li!

“Well, if you want Mo Li to be part of the cast, then she shall be in it!” Nie Li chuckled and took a jab at her nephew, “Who would have thought the ice block of the family would some day come to her little aunt for a favor due to a girl. Looks like our kid is finally growing up. Your aunt is so happy for you~”

Quan Yu slammed the phone. Nie Li laughed heartily.

…

Back in the present… “Yes, this Mo Li comes with her own sponsor but she can’t just cut in and take other people’s roles. That’s so inappropriate!

“Sister Li, we have to do this professionally. I still think we should let the two girls attend an audition before we decide the final casting.” Ran Ya’s agent made her demand once again.

Glancing at the manager, all Nie Li could think of was how to help her nephew. She understood Quan Yu’s intention. He hoped that Mo Li would learn something from this experience. After all, the shoot for a drama was different from shooting for commercials. It would be more taxing and more professionally developed. Mo Li would also be exposed to more facets of the television production artistry.

“Even if I don’t use Mo Li, I won’t use your girl.

“You and I both know what she has done. She’s like a ticking time bomb. If her dirt is dug up during the production, she’ll bring down the entire crew.” Nie Li stared at Ran Ya’s agent who turned her head away.

Ran Ya was only 18 this year. But for the sake of her career, she had done many shady things. This was why Nie Li was angry at the girl. It was due to people like Ran Ya that outsiders kept labeling the industry as a den of iniquities.

No girls wouldn’t love to be lavished by attentions and luxury by men. Ran Ya probably thought she was only playing with them. Plus, doing these things would propel her forward in the business. She didn’t even have the sense of self protection to realize that these men had recorded everything.

Nie Li would be mad to have a time bomb like Ran Ya inside the crew.

“If you have time to come complain to me, you’d better go and watch over your girls. Stop spreading rumors.” Nie Li gave Ran Ya’s manager a stern warning. Nie Li was familiar with what the woman before her had done. It was the agent who sent Ran Ya to those sex parties for the sake of Ran Ya’s career. That was only a minor part of what the woman had done to snatch resources for Ran Ya. Nie Li knew about all of them, but she only gave the woman a quick warning.
