章 1971: Stunned

"Thank you!" Ning Xi nodded and sat on the female lead's assigned seat under everyone's stunned gazes.

Han Zixuan, Zheng Anru, several other assistants, and every reporter at the scene were totally floored.

Zheng Anru's mocking smile froze on her face as if she was petrified.

Ning Xi had actually walked up and sat down in the seat for the female lead of "Assassin"!

Lilian was glancing at Ning Xi from time to time. She could not understand what the producer was thinking!

For a Hollywood movie, especially a remake of a classic movie like "Assassin", why would they use a Chinese female star?

However, even Director Simon was wary as he reminded Lilian with an unusual tone not to cause any trouble.

While she was displeased, she did not do anything about it.

Of course, if they did not reach the expected box office numbers when the movie was released, they could just blame everything on the female lead.
