[No CP] / [Game Transmigration] / [Multiple Aliases] / [Includes Adventure + Casual, can be read selectively]
After a transmigration, otaku Xu Qian brought his game...
Xu Qian went to Bicheng very early today to record a voice package for map navigation. For this purpose, Fick Maps specially prepared a recording studio for him.
FIX Maps is one of the three major navigation software companies in China and is a joint venture between China and Difen.
As one of the three major companies, FCA has taken a low-key approach, relying entirely on its own strength to reach its current position (it has never had the problems that JCDecaux had). They also did not publicize the news that they were about to release a new voice pack, so not many people knew about it.
Xu Qian got this opportunity entirely because of Fei Fei's connections. As a film and television company, Yi Mi Yang Guang (One Meter Sunshine) may not be as good as a talent agency in terms of artist management, but it still has good resources. Just this connection alone is far superior to that of a talent agency.
Of course, the resources aren't just for him alone. After all, with so many people in the company, it's common for there to be more applicants than available resources. Ultimately, it still comes down to individual ability.
Xu Qian got this job partly because the company helped him secure leads, and partly because his popularity had recently surged. Given the same price, choosing the option that maximizes profit is only natural, especially for the client.
So Xu Qian spent the entire morning in the recording studio. Fortunately, the result was good, and the client was very satisfied. After all, Xu Qian had taken professional courses, so these lines were quite easy for him.
"Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Xu!"
"You've all worked hard too." As he shook hands, Xu Qian seemed to hear the sound of money being deposited into his account—a crisp, clear sound.
The two said their goodbyes amicably, and Xu Qian finally had a moment to check his phone. Sure enough, Xiao Qing had sent him a WeChat message saying that Yan Lang had picked her up and taken her home.
Just as Xu Qian was engrossed in replying to WeChat messages, someone suddenly called out to him.
"Xu Qian?"
“…Ms. Lin?” Looking up, I saw Ms. Lin, the person in charge of Guangyi, whom I had met once before, and who also had a very high level of goodwill towards me.
"What a coincidence! By the way, Mr. Xu, do you have any free time to shoot a music video recently? Several of my singers have specifically requested your participation." Ms. Lin smiled warmly, making her goodwill obvious.
"Of course, I hope to cooperate if there is a suitable opportunity." Xu Qian didn't make any absolute statements, after all, his previous experience wasn't very pleasant.
"Are you alone?" Miss Lin looked around but didn't see Xu Qian's assistant.
“He had something else to do today,” Xu Qian explained.
“Oh, I see,” Miss Lin paused for a moment, then continued, “Is Teacher Xu going back to Weicheng now? I’m going back too, so why don’t we go together? We can discuss a new collaboration on the way?”
Xu Qian hesitated for a few seconds, "Won't this interfere with your work?"
Ms. Lin covered her mouth and chuckled, "Isn't discussing cooperation with you just work?"
Xu Qian, having heard this, didn't know what to say and could only nod in agreement.
Once in the car, Xu Qian noticed there were several other people on board. They seemed somewhat surprised by his arrival, but upon closer inspection, they didn't seem so surprised after all.
All the employees at Guangyi know that their Sister Lin is a hardcore perfectionist when it comes to looks. She can't even walk past a good-looking guy or girl. And when she sees this guy in front of her, wow, he's amazing. How could he not fall for Sister Lin?
The few people in the car were whispering to each other with their eyes, as if they were on the same wavelength, which really puzzled Xu Qian. However, Miss Lin seemed very calm.
Her previous words were not just empty talk; there were indeed some rumors about Xu Qian in the company. Guangyi had worked with many actors in the past, including some famous ones, and actors like Xu Qian were not special.
Of course, he was mentioned a little more often than the average person.
Aside from being scammed by their boss the first time, Ms. Lin had a pretty good impression of Xu Qian. She was also present at the filming location, and she even watched all of the sample footage before it was processed. It has to be said that this Mr. Xu is indeed a very pleasing person to the eye.
Unlike movies and TV shows, music videos aim for a stunning effect. Rather than being pleasing to the eye or having strong versatility, they prefer a striking appearance that leaves a more lasting impression.
Just like what's right in front of us, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it was a fleeting glimpse of beauty.
With clean and handsome features, a gentle and approachable demeanor, and an air of poetry in every gesture, he is truly a wonderful person.
After appreciating the beautiful colors, Ms. Lin officially began the conversation. They, Guangyi, will be releasing a new album by their rising star Tian Tian in the winter, with the title track "Stranded" being the highlight of the new album.
As a major production, the MV production naturally couldn't be done on a small scale like that of an ordinary singer. Of course, the pop diva Tian Tian herself is not short of money.
With the funding issue resolved, the next step was to write the music video script.
That's right, the script. Don't be fooled by the fact that a music video is only three to five minutes long. It costs more money than making a movie. As the saying goes, "Though the sparrow is small, it has all the vital organs!"
The pop star should naturally have everything she deserves.
"Of course, Tian Tian is a very responsible singer and values her own album very much. If you have time recently, how about we schedule a time to talk about it together?" Ms. Lin's subtext was that the music video needed to be auditioned, and the real decision was in Tian Tian's hands.
Xu Qian accepted the idea quickly, because he had a brief audition for almost every drama he was involved in (except for guest roles), and selecting the best candidates was a normal practice, which he could understand.
Miss Lin smiled immediately, "Okay, when do you have time? I'll make the arrangements."
"Tuesday or Wednesday, I guess." He had to go back to the company on Monday; he had an appointment with someone from Fengtang that day, and there was a press conference on Thursday. So, Tuesday or Wednesday seemed to be the only options.
"Okay, is it convenient to add each other on WeChat? That way we can contact each other once we've confirmed a time."
"Of course." Xu Qian didn't hesitate; he couldn't be hesitant when facing a client.
...
An hour later, Xu Qian was dropped off at his doorstep.
"Take care, Teacher Xu. Let's keep in touch on WeChat later."
"Okay, be careful on the road."
After the car drove away, Xu Qian turned and entered the residential area.
As he walked, Xu Qian felt something was off. Why did he keep feeling like someone was following him? Could he have run into another stalker?
Xu Qian quickly slipped into the corner and pressed himself tightly against the wall. After a while, he heard footsteps, which were not light and did not seem to be the sound of one person.
"Is this the place? I haven't gone to the wrong place, have I?" The voice that spoke was that of a girl, and it sounded a little young.
"I don't know..." The other one sounded familiar, as if I'd heard it somewhere before.
"Did we follow the wrong path?"
"Sigh, I told you I wasn't going to bring you guys, but you insisted on coming. I really have to go home now..."
"No, please, let me see it again. I haven't seen the real person yet..."
Soon, Xu Qian saw several students appear before him, one of whom was a high school student he had seen that morning.
It's alright, they're not sasaeng fans.
Xu Qian didn't respond much, and quietly walked in the direction they came from, going in the opposite direction.
It seems moving really is necessary...
