This is the story of how to cultivate a perfect female lead, a "plain and unremarkable" beautiful girl who一步步 grows into an all-around superstar.
Chapter 71: Autumn Whispers
Speaking of business, Ye Jingyi also restrained her "mom fan" smile on her face and asked first, "Teacher Nan Gezi, I'm actually quite curious, how did you come up with the idea of writing a popular novel?"
Gu Qingge thought to himself that of course he should complete the side quests and continue to improve his "Literature" skill.
"I like it, so I write whenever I want. As for why I write about e-sports, it's because I like playing "Honor of Kings" and I even went to watch the game in person before." Gu Qingge replied.
As a "fan", Ye Jingyi certainly knew about this.
At that time, the emoticon package of Gu Qingge holding a cheering board and smiling went viral. At the beginning, some people asked who the beautiful girl in the GIF was, because her smile was so beautiful.
As a result, not long after, the identity of the beautiful young lady was revealed. It turned out that she was Gu Qingge.
E-sports fans were all very excited. A talented girl like Gu Qingge actually liked e-sports. They felt inexplicably proud.
This viral emoticon package has attracted a lot of fans for Gu Qingge. The reason is naturally that she is not only beautiful, but also has works. She is also an unprecedented top student who was admitted to a top art university as the top scorer.
As for Gu Qingge's liking for e-sports, his "fans" didn't think it was a big deal. Many celebrities like it, and there is even a creative singer who is the spokesperson for "Heroes of Glory".
At the annual "Honor of Kings" All-Star event, the game officials will invite celebrity artists who already like to play "Honor of Kings" to team up with retired celebrity professional players for an exhibition match.
After the official of "Heroes of Glory" learned that Gu Qingge, a rising star in the music scene, seemed to be very interested in their game, they couldn't help but think of inviting Gu Qingge to cooperate.
However, this idea has not been implemented yet. The reason is very real, that is, her status is not high enough, and the game officials want to see her subsequent development.
Of course, if the official knew that she was the author of "Who Can Compete" or "Qian Meng" herself, the situation would be different.
Anyway, as Gu Wenzhou shines more and more in the professional arena and the influence of "Who's the Contender" grows, "Qian Meng", the extremely mysterious and powerful female player, is becoming more and more legendary.
Of course, there are also many controversies about her. Some people still don't believe that she is a real person and that female players could never have such gaming skills and awareness.
Those who had witnessed how "Qianmeng" led Gu Wenzhou to defeat, as well as professional players who had faced off against "Qianmeng" or walked through the bottom lane together, all left an extremely deep impression on her.
After Gu Wenzhou entered the professional e-sports circle, he gradually got to know many professional players. Some of the AD players liked to come to him to inquire about the news about "Qian Meng".
Gu Wenzhou naturally kept his mouth shut for his sister. He had always followed Gu Qingge's instructions on this matter.
At this time, Ye Jingyi heard Gu Qingge's answer and nodded slightly. She asked again: "Now that you have finished writing "Who Can Compete", do you have any ideas for a new book?"
Gu Qingge shook his head and said frankly, "Not yet, but I haven't stopped writing either. I was writing a travelogue before."
"I know this. I've read all those travel notes. They're very well written. You're so talented. Your writing skills are good enough to make you a part of the traditional literary world." Ye Jingyi sighed.
Gu Qingge likes to hear this kind of truth, but in fact she never thinks she is talented. There are only two things that she is most confident in, one is her appearance, and the other is gaming.
These two things are what truly belong to her. As for the others, those who understand will understand.
So when others called her a "talented woman" or something like that, Gu Qingge didn't take it seriously. She was just a game player who would do anything to achieve her goals.
"Writing can only be considered a side job for me. I'd rather forget about joining the traditional literary world. I don't have the ability to write a classic yet, so I'll just write popular novels to practice my skills."
Gu Qingge said this. In her opinion, only when "literature" reaches the blue expert level can one write first-class literary works and barely touch the level of classics.
Ye Jingyi, however, felt the strong confidence in Gu Qingge's understated words. She always felt that although she said that writing was a side job, as she kept writing, one day she would shock the world!
"So you mean you'll continue writing popular novels? In that case, I have a suggestion..."
Ye Jingyi finally revealed to Gu Qingge the thoughts she had hidden for a long time.
After she knew that Nan Gezi was Gu Qingge, her attitude became more sincere. She even hoped that Gu Qingge would also invest in "Qidian.com".
Gu Qingge, who possesses the skill of "lie detector", of course saw the other party's sincerity.
Not to mention, the system also issued a commissioned task, and the client was naturally Ye Jingyi.
The content of this commissioned task is to continuously create popular online novels, help "Qidian.com" become the most well-known novel website, and complete the revolution in the popular novel circle.
This is a long-term commissioned task. The task reward is collected once every time an online novel is completed, and the reward is very generous.
Ye Jingyi has a very strong background and deep connections in the entertainment industry. After all, her mother is a senior executive of Jinhuang Entertainment, one of the Big Four, so Gu Qingge cooperated with her to set up a studio.
In this way, the division of labor between Gu Qingge and Ye Jingyi is very clear. She only needs to focus on creation and provide high-quality works, while Ye Jingyi is responsible for operations.
With this form of cooperation, Gu Qingge can have the greatest autonomy and choose the dramas she wants to film and the variety shows she wants to appear on. After all, she is her own boss.
During the following summer vacation, Gu Qingge and Ye Jingyi worked together to build a studio, or the prototype of a small entertainment company.
In September, Gu Qingge's art university career finally began.
Before this, Gu Qingge's "Meeting" was successfully selected as the theme song of the movie. She also went to the recording studio to record the song herself. When the movie is released, the song will be officially released.
At the same time, many TV drama producers began to ask Gu Qingge to sing songs. Obviously, the previous song "Meeting" made her songs recognized by the film and television industry.
Now that Gu Qingge has her own studio, it is much easier for others to cooperate with her. They can contact her studio directly.
Gu Qingge, whose music fame is growing, is actually a student in the Performance Department of Huaxia Arts University. This makes her classmates feel quite strange...
Gu Qingge is undoubtedly the most famous student in the Performance Department of China Arts University this year.
However, she is different from the previous star students of the acting department. She became famous in the music industry as a "singer-songwriter", rather than being an actor who became famous by starring in TV dramas and movies.
This led to many vocal music students in the university taking the initiative to make friends with Gu Qingge from the acting department. If they could gain her appreciation, they might be able to take off.
Even the top students in Huayi's composition department wanted to communicate more with Gu Qingge.
Because they had to admit that Gu Qingge was very good at composing those highly popular internet songs, and the market bought into her style.
However, the works produced by professional composers like them are often too highbrow and too mechanical.
Sometimes, it really takes talent and inspiration to create a good song.
Gu Qingge's creative talent has impressed many people.
Most of Gu Qingge's classmates in the Performance Department of Huayi are handsome men and beautiful women, and many female classmates are very confident about their appearance.
But when they faced Gu Qingge's flawless face, their confidence disappeared.
Some classmates had been in the same examination room with Gu Qingge. At that time, they didn’t think Gu Qingge was so dazzling, but now they can clearly feel that her aura has become stronger and her every move has become more star-like.
This is the effect of increasing charm value.
In addition, all of Gu Qingge’s clothes are now handmade by herself, and they can all increase Gu Qingge’s ability values.
Gu Qingge's tailoring skills have been upgraded to the blue expert level, which means that her level of clothing making has reached the first-class level and she can make "blue equipment".
"Blue equipment" not only increases ability values, but also improves proficiency in other skills, which makes Gu Qingge feel very happy.
She couldn't help but look forward to the day when she could make "purple equipment" or even "gold equipment".
She also hopes to have as many life skills as possible, such as "tailoring", as these skills can be improved much faster than those of the main profession.
As long as you have money, buy more materials, and then keep using skills to consume materials, its skill improvement progress will increase rapidly.
In a sense, this is the joy of spending money.
China Arts University does not require freshmen to live in the dormitory. In fact, many students on campus find it easy to sign contracts with entertainment companies after having the Huayi brand, and then start taking on acting roles.
Even if you are appreciated by your teacher at school, you may be recommended to a drama crew by your teacher, and it won't be a big problem to play a supporting role with a small number of lines.
Gu Qingge did not plan to live in the school dormitory. Her current income from royalties from novels and music was enough to rent a high-end apartment in Pingjing.
As for buying a house, forget it. Without tens of millions or even hundreds of millions, it is impossible to buy the big house she likes in Pingjing.
Fortunately, as long as an artist is famous, it is still quite easy to make money. This is an era where traffic is rampant. Acting in movies is high-end, but in terms of making money easily, I am afraid it is not as good as variety show stars.
The effect of movies in promoting people is not as good as that of TV series. Many popular young actors became famous by relying on TV series and online dramas.
Of course, if you are a film financier or producer, that’s a different story.
Gu Qingge will definitely be in charge of her own movies in the future. She now has a work card for the movie "Love Letter" and will draw more work cards in the future.
Having a work card means that Gu Qingge will have a 100% understanding of the work, can perfectly restore the work, and it will be no difficulty to localize it.
China Arts University held its opening ceremony as usual, and Gu Qingge spoke on the podium as a representative of the freshmen.
Many freshmen felt envious and jealous when they saw Gu Qingge's high-spirited and dazzling appearance.
Gu Qingge harvested another small amount of cultivation jade.
However, Gu Qingge was not questioned at all when he became the freshman representative.
After all, she has too many halos around her. She is the top scorer in liberal arts in Jiangnan Province and a popular singer-songwriter. Who can resist her?
Some freshmen couldn't help but think of the star candidate Song Lei, and felt that she was very wise to decisively give up Huayi and go to Zhongyi overnight.
If Song Lei still chooses Huayi, she will be completely suppressed by Gu Qingge and feel very aggrieved.
The senior management of Huayi University on the rostrum were also very proud. They felt that it was a great pleasure to snatch Gu Qingge from top universities such as Huaxia University and Capital University.
China University of the Arts has gained a lot of popularity because of Gu Qingge.
After the opening ceremony, the Huayi Student Union organized a welcome party.
In terms of program quality, the welcome party of this top art university certainly far surpassed the one in Hanzhong, the province where Gu Qingge originally studied.
As a well-known talent among the freshmen of this year, Gu Qingge must of course give a performance.
In fact, both freshmen and candidates are looking forward to her show.
"With Gu Qingge's talent, he will definitely sing a new original song."
"Still coming up with original songs? Her new song has been popular all summer, is there anything else?"
"Who knows? This talented and willful guy might have a masterpiece in his collection. He's a talented original singer who can get inspiration even when he's on the toilet."
"Bullshit! My goddess Gu Qingge doesn't even need to go to the bathroom!"
"Yes, yes, her poop is all pink."
"It's great to be able to attend Huayi University. The various evening parties held on campus every year are an audio-visual feast!"
"That's because Huaxia Arts University has merged many art colleges, such as the music, dance, and fine arts colleges, which used to be independent institutions."
"Mergers are good, as art always has something in common."
…
This time, Gu Qingge did not choose to sing, but instead prepared to play the piano with her master-level piano skills. As for what to play, it was of course her own "composed" piano piece "Whispers in Autumn".
It is autumn now, and this piano piece is perfect for me.
When the news of her performance came out, many students couldn't help but feel disappointed.
"Gu Qingge is such an amazing original singer, why would she play the piano? Can her piano skills compare to the piano majors in our school?"
"The little piano prince Nie Yingfa smiled crookedly: Is this all the talented lady Gu is?"
"Nie Yingfa is indeed qualified to look down on Gu Qingge's piano skills. She has already been reserved by a famous orchestra. If she can make further breakthroughs in the future, she may become a professional pianist."
"Whenever Nie Yingfa attends a school party, no one else is willing to perform the piano. Nie Yingfa attended the welcome party this time."
"Gu Qingge is so stubborn. Is it because she's a freshman that she doesn't understand the situation?"
"There's something interesting to watch. Just wait for Gu Qingge, who underestimated this party, to have a surprise attack!"
…
Gu Qingge certainly did not underestimate this party. She played the piano this time and even wore the gorgeous dress produced by the system that she had drawn before.
Gu Qingge, who appeared on the stage in this outfit, was extremely charming!
