The Insignifcant Female Supporting Character Actually Became a Bigshot in the Novel!

Eliminating Jiang Ran

Just as the system was feeling puzzled, it heard Xi Wan say to Jiang Ran, “I’m sorry, you’re eliminated now. Please leave.”

Jiang Ran’s eyes widened; she was of course unwilling to leave. “Why? What right do you have to eliminate me? I haven’t even started my audition yet, yet you’re already playing with your privileges!”

The system was even more shocked when it heard Xi Wan’s words. It knew that she was a troublesome person!

The corners of Xi Wan’s lips twitched upwards slightly, revealing an unfathomable and aloof smile. “How unfortunate that I’m now an investor in this drama. As a major shareholder of this drama, of course I have this authority.”

Jiang Ran was dumbfounded. “What? Investor? How is that possible?”

Xi Wan immediately retorted, “And what do you mean by that? Just because you don’t have money doesn’t mean that I’m also poor. You entered the entertainment industry because it’s easy to earn money. You want to gain fame and make big money.”

“But I’m different. I was rich to begin with, and I only entered the entertainment industry on a whim. I just didn’t want to let my looks go to waste. I didn’t expect the entertainment industry to be so chaotic, though. I’m such a good person, yet I’m being scolded by people. So I’ve given up. I’m not an actress anymore. Instead, I’m going to be your master.”

Jiang Ran could only see a sea of black before her eyes. Could someone please tell her that all this was fake?

Since the money had already been transferred to his account, Songkai was very supportive of Xi Wan now. He immediately said, “Yes, you have been eliminated. Please leave.”

Jiang Ran didn’t know how she got out of the room. She was still digesting what had happened when the next interviewee went in.

Then, her expression morphed into a vicious one.

Her guess was definitely right, then—Xi Wan must have a financial backer behind her. She was using the money from the financial backer to invest in the script.

She quickly picked up her phone and looked at the comments about Xi Wan on the internet.

The video of Xi Wan hitting her had already been posted online, and now everyone was lambasting her in the comments.

...

Jiang Ran gritted her teeth and called her manager. “Brother Chen, I hope you can stir up some news online. Say that Xi Wan has a sugar daddy behind her and that she used his money to bring funds into the production and directly removed my role as the female lead.”

Brother Chen didn’t immediately agree to her request, but rather asked, “How do you know she brought money into the production? Who’s her sugar daddy? If we rashly post this and end up angering her sugar daddy, it might have a negative impact on us.”

Seeing that Brother Chen wasn’t willing to help her, Jiang Ran felt her mood sour even more.

“It’s fine if you’re not willing to help me. I’ll just do it myself.”

After that, Jiang Ran hung up the phone. Brother Chen called her again, but she didn’t pick up. Instead, she used an alternate account to make a post.

After posting that, she quickly went offline and changed her account. After logging back in, she saw that the post she’d put up had already garnered lots of comments by other netizens.

Jiang Ran looked at all the curses directed at Xi Wan and turned off her phone in satisfaction. 𝑓𝙧𝙚𝙚w𝙚𝙗𝒏oν𝐞l. c𝑜𝙢

At this moment, another girl walked into the audition room. Her name was Nan Yin, and she was in her 20s and looked like a college graduate. She was very beautiful, but it wasn’t the kind of beauty that would stun someone. Rather, it was the kind that would leave a soothing impression on other people; the more one looked at her, the more beautiful they would think she was, and it was very easy to get close to her.

Such an actress was generally referred to as an approachable beauty, which meant it would be easy for her to gain good popularity with the audience.

Xi Wan nodded inwardly. She liked Nan Yin’s appearance very much. Judging just from her looks, she would be good enough to play the female lead in the drama. It was up to her performance next.

Nan Yin looked at the people sitting in front of her. She knew about the director and producer, but why was Xi Wan here? She was very confused. Shouldn’t Xi Wan be her competitor?

“Hello, all of you. The role I’m auditioning for today is the female lead...”
