When they arrived at the film studio, they stopped by the side of the road. After getting out of the car, Zhou Yan said, “I’ve arranged for all your books to be put back on the shelves. By the way, when will your new book be ready? Our entire publishing house is anxious. We’re just waiting for it.”

“It’s already done,” Su Wen replied.

“Already done?” Zhou Yan exclaimed in disbelief. “When did you finish it? Why didn’t I know?”

“I finished it over the past few days while staying at home,” Su Wen explained.

“That’s great. Give me the manuscript, and I’ll review it and get it published as soon as I get back.” Zhou Yan praised Su Wen’s speed. “Wenwen, you’re always the fastest.”

“Let me make it clear, I won’t be participating in any promotional activities this time.”

“Don’t worry, even if you wanted to, I wouldn’t let you. The last time was a bit too much. Even Xu Pei reminded me about it, which means it was too much.”

As they walked, Zhou Yan, unfamiliar with the studio, used her connections to arrange a guide for them. Su Wen knew that Dong Na had been working hard at the studio before becoming famous. She did odd jobs and worked as an apprentice for ten years, but she didn’t know the details, even from internal staff.

Dong Na wasn’t a regular employee; she was more of a temporary worker with little chance to shine. Many aspiring actors worked for free just to learn, often having to give gifts to their mentors.

Su Wen was determined to find Dong Na in advance and knew she had to be patient. Since she was aware Dong Na had been here, she was confident she would find her eventually. However, this wasn’t easy to explain, not even to Zhou Yan.

“We have a lot of actors, singers, dancers, and several drama troupes,” the receptionist said enthusiastically. “If you have any requests, just let us know. We can call everyone over for you to choose from.” Zhou Yan’s powerful background had prompted a direct greeting from the higher-ups, and job opportunities were rare, making this a good thing no matter who was chosen. The other party was known to be generous with rewards.

With the economic boom, more filming opportunities were arising each year. New projects were in the works, including two of the Four Great Classics, one of which was already in production, offering many job opportunities. However, the filming was demanding and time-consuming, with profits barely supporting the participants’ families.

“Wenwen, what do you think? Why don’t we have them come to us so you can choose? Otherwise, we’ll be searching aimlessly,” Zhou Yan suggested.

Su Wen could recognize Dong Na at a glance, but the question was whether Dong Na would get the chance to participate. After considering it for a moment, Su Wen agreed with Zhou Yan’s suggestion. It was a good idea. If Dong Na came, it would be great. If not, they would figure out another way.

The receptionist took Su Wen and Zhou Yan to the reception room to wait while he informed all the female employees of the appropriate age to participate in the selection.

After waiting in the lounge for a while, Su Wen grew bored and stepped outside to look around the entrance. To her surprise, she ran into someone unexpected.

“Su Wen?” Lu Jianan asked in astonishment. “Why are you here?” He thought he might be seeing things.
