However, what surprised Xu Rui was that Jia Le’s company actually managed to keep Lu Zhen’s female lead. Moreover, the new investor was very stubborn.
Her plan to snatch the female lead halfway wouldn’t work.
Xu Rui gritted her teeth and flipped through the script of “Beauty” many times. In the end, she decided to take down the supporting actress in the movie,
“Fang Yuan”.
The movie “Beauty” was set during the Republic of China War.
The male lead, Jing Ze, was a young master from a wealthy family. He had been engaged to the eldest daughter of the Bai family since he was young, but the two of them had only met a few times when they were young. Later, Jing Ze went overseas to study, and the two of them had not seen each other for many years.
In the 23rd year of the Republic of China, there were many wars in the country, and the people were in deep suffering.
When Jing Ze heard that the country was in trouble, he immediately returned to the country and prepared to join the army. However, the Jing family did not support him joining the army. Instead, they asked him to marry the eldest daughter of the Bai family immediately after returning to the country.
On the night of Jing Ze and the Bai family’s eldest daughter’s wedding, the two of them were sent to the bridal chamber by their relatives and friends.
However, Jing Ze took the opportunity to sneak out and run away from home.
Later, Jing Ze joined the anti-war organization by coincidence and got to know Fang Yuan, a young woman with advanced thinking. The two of them became close comrades who went through life and death together and developed feelings for each other during the process.
At this point in the story, it sounded very much like the love story between
Jing Ze and Fang Yuan. The average audience would probably think that Fang Yuan was the female lead of the movie.
However, the original author of “Beauty” was a great author who had won a literary award after all. His characters were always unexpected.
Lu Zhen played Yue Qin, who had been famous in the capital for a long time. Later, the warlord, Zheng Xiong, took a fancy to her and married her as his seventh concubine.
From then on, Yue Qin became the concubine and confidant of the warlord, Zheng Xiong. Yue Qin worked for Zheng Xiong and captured and killed many people in the war. She also helped Zheng Xiong deal with the resistance organization and the invaders.
In an instant, Yue Qin became the most famous social butterfly in the capital.
