Lan Ruowei replied, "Yes."
Vice Director Kong's face looked even more displeased, and he turned to Director Wang: "Director Wang, should we discuss this with the higher-ups? Having a woman as the female lead who is neither professionally trained nor experienced will ruin this film."
Director Wang's expression wasn't good either. He said sullenly, "I've already discussed it with the higher-ups, and they said they don't care about the box office."
For a director, nothing is more convincing than box office numbers. If a movie sells well and has a good reputation, the director's reputation will double as well.
But if the box office is low and there is much criticism, the director's reputation won't be good.
Now, things are looking bad. A newcomer who knows nothing, with no acting skills and no fan base, this movie is half-ruined already.
