Interstellar Major General Su Zhuo transmigrated into a Mary Sue novel titled "Entertainment Industry's Heaven-Defying Doting". The original body was a cannon fodder female supporting c...
The huge poster was unfolded, and Su Zhuo saw her image in the game appear on it. A line of eye-catching words below stated that she was the champion of the first "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds". Defeating her would receive a prize of 10 million yuan, otherwise the prize money would be given to Su Zhuo who successfully defended the championship.
"Very good." Su Zhuo nodded in satisfaction. "When does the second phase start?"
Seeing her unfazed expression, Tang Xiaofeng smiled faintly. "I estimate the promotion will begin online tonight. The actual broadcast will take at least a week, as the screening process for other countries will be slower. I have a feeling this variety show will create a phenomenal change."
As the first and extremely successful holographic variety show, "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" has long been popular abroad. The fact that several countries in the Asian region want to get a piece of the pie shows that it has unlimited potential.
"Holography is the future, and it's only going to become more common." Su Zhuo nodded and put away the poster. Seeing this, Tang Xiaofeng said, "You take a break. Let's go straight home. I'll call you when we get home."
Su Zhuo nodded and closed his eyes to rest.
………………
At 7:30 in the evening, Su Zhuo returned to Hai City. He and Tang Xiaofeng ordered some takeout and ate it at home.
Su Zhuo lay on the bed and browsed Weibo for a while.
On Weibo, netizens were enthusiastically discussing Su Zhuo's wonderful performance in "Racing". An editing expert made a related compilation, and the number of views exceeded one million in just a few hours.
Su Zhuo's Weibo followers have increased significantly again, reaching the 20 million mark.
Fans left lively messages in the comment section.
"Ahhhhhhhh Su Shen wrote in his own blood begging you to be a racing driver, don't force me to kneel down and beg you QAQ"
"Su Shen wants to be a professional player. He doesn't have time to be a racing driver. Forget it!"
"Esports competitions are even better, safer and more exciting!"
"Racing drivers are full of passion, speed and passion are more suitable for goddesses!!"
"Stop fighting, stop fighting!"
"Wow, I like both sides so much, I don't know who to help."
Just when fans in the comment section were clamoring that a fight was about to break out, a trending search appeared on all major platforms.
Holographic "PUBG" V: "Hello everyone, the first holographic variety show "PUBG" in China is about to start its second season. This time we have updated the gameplay... At the same time, the first season champion @Su Zhuo is looking forward to the challenge of elite players from all over the world.
The specific reward rules are as follows...
We will make this edition of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds the [First National Competition], and welcome everyone to sign up. The registration address is…"
"!!!! The second season is coming? Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, finally there's another variety show to watch!!"
"Damn, the number of candidates has been expanded more than tenfold this time, and they're even accepting applications from Asian countries. But why are they bringing those people along?!"
"Long Country just released a holographic variety show and it became a hit, and some countries are already licking their lips and trying to take advantage of it? Isn't that disgusting?"
"I've thought about the specific rules and it seems everyone, except esports players, can sign up. It's a lottery system, just like the first time, but the chances of winning will be higher. PS: I also don't agree with including certain countries. Why would we include them in our own variety show?"
"Don't be angry, my dear family members above. Please read the terms carefully. Every non-Dragon citizen who registers must pay. The country is not to be bullied! Let them come. Su Shen will teach them a lesson."
"Ah, this. Although I like Su Shen as well, our Dragon Country has never been very good in the esports world. Are the production team too proud? Aren't they afraid of being embarrassed if someone else wins the championship in their home turf?"
"Can some of you guys upstairs please stop saying such bad things? How could Su Shen, who's so awesome, lose? Didn't those people who said she couldn't do it get slapped in the face enough?"
"I'm not being pessimistic. I'm a long-time esports fan. From mobile games to PC games, the strongest country in Asia has always been Korea, followed by Japan. Our Dragon Country hasn't even made it into the top three many times. I'm just worried about losing on our home turf. After all, our Dragon Country is the only one with holographic content right now, so it's a really impressive thing. Sigh!"
Netizens are excited about the upcoming second season of "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds", with some screaming in anticipation and others expressing pessimism.
But no matter what, the popularity was really hot. The registration address once collapsed to the point of becoming a hot search, causing netizens to tag the Weibo boss and add the server.
——————
The next day.
Tang Xiaofeng came to pick up Su Zhuo to go to the "King" company to shoot the MV. On the way, she handed the MV script to Su Zhuo.
"Take the time to read it. Actually, there aren't many lines and they're easy to remember. The main thing is to grasp the atmosphere and momentum of the scene."
Su Zhuo raised his eyebrows and opened the script. Only then did he understand what Tang Xiaofeng meant by saying that he didn't have many lines, but mainly that he had to grasp the atmosphere and momentum.
The role given to her by the game is the empress, Wu Zetian.
The dialogue from beginning to end consists of three sentences, with a total of no more than 30 words, which is very easy to remember. The main purpose is to show the queen's dominance and her dominance over the world.
Su Zhuo closed the script and said seriously, "Don't worry, I can do it."
“…………”
Tang Xiaofeng was completely worried.
In her eyes, Su Zhuo is a naive and gullible person who is easily deceived. He usually speaks softly and is gentle and obedient. Although he is crazy and brutal when playing games and racing, filming and games are two completely different fields.
After thinking about it, Tang Xiaofeng simply shared some of his acting tips with him, "When you act later..."
Su Zhuo listened carefully to her teaching of the secret.
After speaking for nearly ten minutes, Tang Xiaofeng took a sip of water and said, "That's about it. If you have any questions, you can ask me."
Before Su Zhuo could speak, Yuan Yuan said quietly, "Isn't it just about keeping a straight face and a serious attitude? The more aggressive, the better."
Tang Xiaofeng rolled his eyes in anger, "How can it be that simple? What's the difference between you and those people who just stare when acting?"
"We're here."
Yuan Yuan parked the car, turned to Su Zhuo and said, "Sister Su Zhuo, just be yourself."
"How can this be possible? She's the empress, not the little princess." Tang Xiaofeng retorted disapprovingly.
Yuan Yuan said slowly, "How did you figure out that Sister Su Zhuo was a little princess?"
"I……"
Tang Xiaofeng wanted to say something when the staff from the gaming company came over to her from a distance. She quickly shut up and put on a professional fake smile to chat and laugh with them.
Su Zhuo walked into the company with them.
The staff member was a short-haired lady with a cheerful personality. "Actor Wei Penang hasn't arrived yet. We may have to wait a while. I'll take you to the dressing room to get ready."
“OK!”
The staff took Su Zhuo and the others into a pure white dressing room. The makeup artist inside was already ready. As soon as Su Zhuo sat down, they surrounded him.
While Su Zhuo was putting on makeup, Wei Bing arrived late fifteen minutes later.
After hearing from the staff that Su Zhuo had already arrived and was preparing, Wei Bing looked indifferent. His agent spoke for him, "We have sensitive skin, so we might need a makeup artist. Sorry to bother you."
The staff was stunned. "We have provided six makeup artists for Teacher Wei Bin. That should be enough."
"How can six be enough?" the agent said with a smile. "I've already told you that Weibin has sensitive skin. We might need more makeup artists, at least twelve. Please prepare them and don't waste time."
He specifically emphasized skin sensitivity.
The staff member nodded reluctantly, then walked aside to call his superiors for instructions.
The agent watched him leave, then turned and sneered at Wei Bin, "I don't know what the game company was thinking. They assigned the same number of makeup artists to Su Zhuo and you, without even considering whether Su Zhuo's status is high enough. Since they won't learn the ropes, I'm going to teach them a lesson. We'll just have to wait until we have twelve makeup artists."
Wei Bing's expression was cold and distant. "The fact that Su Zhuo was able to get this endorsement shows that she is quite capable."
"Yes, you will have to meet fans with her at the anniversary celebration. If the contract hadn't been signed, I really don't want you to suffer this injustice. You have to be careful during the filming and don't let her seize any opportunity to hype you up." The agent reminded.
"She'd better not have such a stupid idea!" Wei Bing's handsome face darkened.
Seeing this, the agent smiled and said nothing more.
…
The other side.
The staff first contacted Su Zhuo and wanted to ask if they could send two makeup artists over.
Tang Xiaofeng laughed angrily after hearing her words, "How big of a face can a man have? He needs twelve makeup artists. What's going on? Is he going to put foundation all over his body or something?"
"Sister Xiaotang, please keep your voice down," the staff member waved his hands repeatedly, "It's not good if you call Weibin the Movie King hears it."
Tang Xiaofeng sneered twice, "What's wrong with that? He's afraid of people saying his face is as big as a basin? My Su Zhuo's makeup artists have a clear division of labor and everyone is busy and has no time to give him the job. If he's so pretentious, he can either bring his own people or wait."
Are you kidding? If he really lets him go, will Su Zhuo still be in the circle in the future?
The staff smiled helplessly, but had no choice but to call their superiors again to request reinforcements.
Fortunately, "The King" had money and high efficiency, and soon transferred several makeup artists from outside, and finally solved the makeup artist problem.
Su Zhuo was putting on makeup in the inner room and had no idea what was happening outside.
She closed her eyes and let the makeup artists apply the makeup on her face. From time to time, she could hear their exclamations: "This skin is so white and delicate!"
"There are no blemishes or pores at all, sooo ...
"Su Zhuo, what skin care products do you usually use? Please recommend some to us."
Su Zhuo closed his eyes and said, "I exercise seriously every day, eat well, and go to bed early. I haven't used any skin care products yet."
"Ah, I can't do any of them. I'm so busy every day that I don't even have time to eat a single meal."
"Just not staying up late is enough to make me have bad skin."
"It turns out that beautiful people are self-disciplined!"
The makeup artists were chattering away, and Su Zhuo took a nap while listening to their voices. After about half an hour, the preliminary makeup was completed.
"Su Zhuo, change your clothes first and see the effect."
Su Zhuo opened his eyes and met his gaze in the mirror.
She had a delicate and bright makeup, a crimson totem painted between her eyebrows, and a vermilion pen lightly dotted on both sides of her lips. Her long hair had not been styled yet, and her ink-black, satin-like hair made her look both like and unlike the Empress Wu Zetian in the game.
"The clothes are here. There are two sets in total, one set of court dress and one set of casual dress."
The staff came over with two long dresses.
A makeup artist excitedly said, "Try the court dress first."
The other makeup artists nodded in agreement. The Queen's court attire was a very gorgeous and sexy one. The upper part of the skirt was white with gold, while the lower part was the same vermilion color as the makeup, with intricate patterns outlined on the corners.
Beautiful and domineering.
Everyone wanted to see the effect after Su Zhuo changed.
Su Zhuo stood up and walked into the dressing room, and changed into palace dress with the help of the staff.
The moment he pushed the door open, everyone in the dressing room looked up at him at the same time, with expressions of surprise on their faces.
"Wow! It's so beautiful!"
"This is absolutely stunning! The Queen cosplayer's looks are the highest!"
"Holy crap, it's all legs below the chest!! That's outrageous!"
"Okay, hurry up and do the styling." The person in charge of Su Zhuo was the first to come back to his senses. He clapped his palms and asked everyone to hurry up.
Su Zhuo was pushed to the dressing table again.
Several makeup artists surrounded her, like fairies from the fairyland, adding the final touches to her hair one by one.
Soon, everything was ready.
Under the guidance of the staff, Su Zhuo went to the location where the MV was shot. Wei Bin and others were already ready there. His makeup was very simple, he just needed to wear a wig and a simple disguise.
Along the way, Su Zhuo heard countless people exclaiming in amazement.
At the recording studio.
Wei Bing clicked his eyes slightly, and when he heard the noise behind him, he didn't open his eyes or turn around. His face showed his coldness and aloofness as well as his dislike for Su Zhuo.
The originally warm atmosphere became a little awkward due to his deliberate behavior.
Su Zhuo didn't care about Wei Bing's cold treatment and contempt. She was seriously dealing with the pair of high heels that she was not used to, and getting used to them step by step, without even looking at Wei Bing.
Wei Bing sneered in his heart: He is playing hard to get.
The MV director came out and said, "Alright, both actors, get ready. Let's do a test take to get a feel for it."
Hearing this, Wei Bing stood up. He has always been very professional in his attitude towards filming.
Su Zhuo, who had just sat down, stood up again and walked onto the green screen shooting stage.
"The background of this CG is Chang'an City. Teacher Wei Bing plays the minister X Star. Have both teachers memorized the lines?" asked the director.
Su Zhuo nodded and said, "I'll remember it."
"Um."
Wei Penang is going to be aloof to the end.
"OK, let's start the first shoot, Action!!!"
As the MV director said "start", Wei Bing's temperament instantly changed from cold and aloof to a gentle and youthful man. He blinked his blue eyes and looked up at Su Zhuo.
"Nice to meet you, Your Majesty. My name is Xing..."
As he spoke fluently, no one noticed a force pressing towards Su Zhuo.
This is a suppression technique used in filming - suppressing the play.
If it were an ordinary newbie, he would be so overwhelmed that he would forget his lines.
However, Su Zhuo was not affected at all. She looked at Wei Bin with disdain. After he finished his lines, she opened her red lips and uttered a word in a cold and domineering manner.
"allow!"
"Card!"
The MV director shouted, his expression a little conflicted and apologetic.
"Teacher Wei Bin, you said all your lines correctly, but did you forget to do the movements?"
Wei Bing's face was indifferent. "It's not that I forgot to do it, it's just that I felt Su Zhuo's aura was not strong enough to make me kneel down sincerely."
“…………?”
The director couldn't accept what he said.
Shooting an MV does not require very good acting skills. CG animation has already released this part. The MV is purely a benefit for game fans and a win-win situation for the spokesperson.
But since Wei Bin said this, he couldn't pretend not to hear it.
The director looked at Su Zhuo in a negotiating tone, "Teacher Su Zhuo, could you please take a look at your aura and try to control it a little more?"
Su Zhuo nodded: "Okay."
"Okay, let's do it again." The MV director was very happy with Su Zhuo's cooperation, and immediately raised the loudspeaker and shouted to start filming again.
Wei Bing curled the corners of his lips and admitted that he did it on purpose.
Who made Su Zhuo go too far and snatch the endorsement that belonged to Lianlian by unknown means? He has always disdained to bully the younger generation by means of suppressing their performance.
But he didn't feel the slightest bit of guilt for doing this to Su Zhuo.
On stage,
Su Zhuo straightened his robe and turned around, and the filming began again.
Wei Bing read the lines word for word, and at the same time, he quietly pressed his momentum towards Su Zhuo again, intending to use the same trick again, but he didn't expect to be suppressed back by a powerful force.
Next second.
On the high platform a few steps away, Su Zhuo turned slightly, and the Queen's majestic and arrogant eyes lowered slightly, and then she pressed down fiercely with supreme divine power.
"First, first time meeting you..." Wei Bing's smooth lines suddenly became stuttered.
MV director: "Cut, Teacher Weibin, there can't be any lag in your lines here."
Wei Bin's face turned pale and he looked at Su Zhuo in horror, turning a deaf ear to the MV director's words. Was that the suppression just now from Su Zhuo?
"Teacher Wei Pen?"
The MV director frowned slightly and shouted again.
Wei Bing finally came back to his senses. "I know, but Su Zhuo's performance isn't strong enough. I'm sorry, I hope you can teach her how to act, otherwise it will be difficult for me to continue filming."
“…………”
The MV director almost wanted to curse. The first time he didn't do any action, the second time he stuttered when reading the lines, and then he put the blame on Su Zhuo and said that her performance was not strong enough?
Damn it, don’t think you can fool him just because he has little education.
But the director still smiled and nodded: "Okay, then take a five-minute break. I will explain the play to both teachers."
He thought what he said was appropriate and correct.
But Wei Peng is ignorant.
"No need, just teach Su Zhuo well, I have no problem." Wei Bin said coldly, turned around and walked off the stage, sitting in his seat. Assistants and agents surrounded him and asked him about his well-being.
The people around him looked at him and then at Su Zhuo, not knowing what to do.
The MV director smiled on the surface, but was cursing in his heart. The filter of the actor Wei Penang snapped and shattered.
"Teacher Su Zhuo, the aura wasn't captured well enough in some places just now. For example, the Queen's aura should be so strong that people would want to kneel down just by looking at her from behind. And the atmosphere must be captured perfectly. In short, she's a queen who dominates the world and makes people afraid."
Hearing this, Su Zhuo said "oh" and nodded seriously to indicate that he agreed.
The director was very moved. Who the hell said Su Zhuo had a bad temper or was a bad person? He was so cute and sweet, much better than the popular Wei Penang actor who was so popular online.
Moreover, the queen actually has a very good temperament, but she is a bit troublesome.
Su Zhuo understood from the director's words that her momentum just now was not strong enough. After careful consideration, she had an idea in mind.
Five minutes later.
MV shooting started again.
Wei Bin, who plays Star X, stood at the bottom of the stairs. The blue-haired boy had a gentle and handsome face, but there was a subtle disdain in his eyes.
He read his lines literally.
Just finished reading, the next second.
A majestic and powerful aura came overwhelmingly.
Wei Bing fell to his knees in front of Su Zhuo's back with a thud.
At the same time, the queen played by Su Zhuo turned around casually, her bright and domineering face was calm, and she said a word in a light voice.
"allow!"
