An Xiaxia picked it up.
Director Yue's anxious voice came from the other end. "Master Stone, do you have a minute?"
"Um… please call me Xiaxia." An Xiaxia was a little embarrassed. This Director Yue was way too polite…
"I'm calling because, well, the script is done and filming is on schedule. It's just… just…" He paused there, which intrigued An Xiaxia greatly. "Just what?"
"The lead roles are working just fine, but there's this important supporting role, and we contacted a popular young actor at first. However, there's a clash in his schedule and he turned us down. There were two other suitable candidates, but the actors also declined because of the subject matter…"
An Xiaxia was all the more confused. Why was he telling her about the casting?
"Well, keep looking, I guess? How about contacting some less well-known but good actors? Or maybe alter the character a bit?" Those were the best suggestions she could think of.
