Chapter 38
Dubbing is a complete interpretation of the character
The day after "Happy Sunday" was broadcast, Ling Suisui gained tens of thousands of followers on Weibo.
She was on two trending searches yesterday, with the terms #Ling Suisui# and #Chi Jia said to Ling Suisui, let me come#.
Although her name appears in both trending searches, the situations are completely different.
The former was a close-up shot of her in Fast Seven that was cropped and edited by a blogger. Ling Sui's beauty once again went viral. The topic topped the hot search charts without a host, ranking No. 2. Both the hot and real-time charts were filled with praise and screams from passers-by:
[I said hi to my wife directly to Ling Suisui]
[Ahhhhh I can’t handle Ling Suisui being too beautiful. I’m really going to collapse if I can’t kiss her]
[About the time I was stunned by Ling Suisui’s beauty]
[Who understands? When she stared at Li Yuanqing, my breathing stopped.]
[So beautiful... a little girl easily swept the entire domestic entertainment industry]
[Wife, hey, wife...]
…
Ling Suisui was picking up bitter tea seeds on the ground in the square again, and unexpectedly found that there were a few people calling her husband.
Hmm, probably because I saw those animated pictures of her playing the water splashing game? Later, Li Yuanqing also told her that her eyes at that time were so intimidating that he unconsciously followed her instructions and turned his head.
As for another hot search, it was a video clip posted by a marketing account, with the caption "Chi Jia is such a gentleman", and at this moment, I really put myself in Ling Sui's shoes. The comment section was full of individual pictures posted by Chi Jia's fans.
The hot search and real-time squares are basically filled with comments from Chi Jia's fans. If you scroll down, you will see comments like "These two are a good match" and "Just stop by and take a look", but they are soon overwhelmed by more single-person recommendations.
Ling Suisui thought that she was once again serving as a tool for the male star to gain fans. She didn’t say anything else. Could this marketing account’s copy be more straightforward?
...Forget it, considering that this trending search at least mentioned her name and increased her popularity, she won't bother with him.
She followed Chi Jia back on Weibo, and also commented on the Weibo post where he mentioned her and posted a photo of them having a midnight snack together.
Regarding the fact that some netizens were pairing her up with Chi Jia and the edited video even became a hot topic on the Zimo website, although Ling Sui was also paying attention, she did not react too much.
In fact, as long as she has contact with other stars, whether they are of the same sex or the opposite sex, this phenomenon is unavoidable. After all, even Voldemort and Lin Daiyu can be brought together, which shows how big the netizens' imaginations are.
She and Chi Jia only appeared in the same frame once in a variety show, and netizens were just shipping them for fun, obviously not taking it seriously.
Therefore, the best way for Ling Suisui to deal with it is to ignore it. As long as she doesn't mention it and Chi Jia doesn't mention it, once the enthusiasm of the netizens who pass by and take a look fades, no one will remember this matter.
Netizens are very happy when they are together, and quiet when they disperse. Everyone is very decent.
Her plan was carried out smoothly, and Chi Jia's team did not make any move - they clearly used her as a tool. Without any other exchange of interests, there was no reason for a top star to seriously hype up a couple with an unknown star.
Ling Suisui kept a note of Chi Jia in her heart and politely declined his invitation to appear on variety shows.
It doesn't mean that I have to avoid Chi Jia in the future, but Ling Sui feels that the next time I can be in the same frame with him will be at least three months later.
[Ling Suisui: I am still a freshman in college. There are too many required courses. The school is very strict and I cannot ask for leave. ]
Some of this was just to please him, and some of it was the truth.
Even if you insist on leaving school, the Film Academy will not stop you from leaving, but your grades and credits will be deducted. Ling Suisui was very worried that Wen Jiayan would have to retake all her courses this semester.
Xiang Yanchu still knew to take a few days off to attend classes and maintain the minimum attendance rate. Xia Tian was about to finish filming the show, but Wen Jiayan was the only one who was recording in closed session in "Sparkling Star" and it was unknown when she would be able to come out.
Of course, considering the competition system of this program, Ling Suisui definitely hopes that she can stay as long as possible.
It’s just that... after Ling Suisui treated Chi Jia perfunctorily, his favorability towards her actually increased a little.
The system prompted her that a new badge of "Playing Hard to Get" had appeared in the achievement collection.
Ling Suisui: ...
Her mood was very complicated. Chi Jia... forget it. In essence, he had nothing to do with her.
No matter how fancy the title the system came up with, as long as she could earn points by participating in the lottery, she could ignore unimportant details.
Ling Suisui's attitude towards the CP is to let it go, as it will break up in a few days anyway, but Chen Yuening and Ying Nian are not so open-minded.
Chen Yuening was better off. He could see Ling Suisui during class at school, and when they met, he asked her indirectly whether she was in a relationship or not.
As for Ying Nian, he edited and deleted, deleted and edited again in the chat box on his mobile phone. He knew that the CP video was just edited by netizens for fun, but he still felt anxious and uneasy.
He finally asked Xia Tian: [How is Sui Sui these days? ]
[Xia Tian: How should I know? I haven't finished shooting yet. ]
[Xia Tian: But based on what I know about Sui Sui, she’s not a bad person as long as you don’t get too close to her. ]
Year: ...
He replied gloomily: [I won't cause her any trouble, it's really sad what you said. ]
[Xia Tian: Oh, then I will withdraw and you ask again until I say "she needs your care"? ]
[Ying Nian: Dad, please stop talking.] ]
[Xia Tian: A man's unrequited love can only move himself. If you really want to be good to Sui Sui, take some practical actions. ]
[Ying Nian: Do you have any idea? Say it quickly]
[Xia Tian: Please help her get the original voice of Ding Fengbo. She will be very happy when she knows it. ]
[Year:? ]
[Ying Nian: Are you serious? ]
Ying Nian was a little bit unbelieving. Would she be happy if Ling Suisui dubbed Qin Xian?
It’s not that it can’t be done, it’s just that it’s too easy. There's no need to fight for this, he just needs to say hello to the producer.
[Xia Tian: Of course I’m serious. If you don’t believe me, give her a call and you’ll know by listening to her tone. ]
Ying Nian was skeptical. He first sent a message to the producer, and then went to find Ling Suisui after getting a positive reply.
What Xia Tian said was right - Ling Sui was very excited.
She kept asking on the phone, "Great! When and what month will the dubbing be done? Don't worry, I'm very good at dialogue classes and will definitely not hinder the show."
Under normal circumstances, there are too many actors in a crew and it is difficult to coordinate their schedules. There is a possibility that an actor may not be able to show up for dubbing, thus delaying the progress. Therefore, even if the crew uses original voice dubbing, they only consider a few main characters.
As for the many remaining characters, they will be packaged and assigned to a voice actor, who will use different voices to dub them, which is the most efficient way.
Originally, with Qin Xian's role, she should have been part of the package. Ling Sui had prepared herself mentally that she might not be able to get what she wanted, but she didn't expect that Yingnian would bring her this good news.
Hearing the joy in her tone, Ying Nian couldn't help but smile.
He said: "Dubbing work is not that fast, the director is still editing the film, I just want to tell you first."
"Okay." Ling Suisui was in a particularly good mood. "Thank you, Yingnian. Did you go and ask for me?"
Otherwise, there would be no reason for this and the crew would not have notified her so early in advance.
Ying Nian: "Well, I thought... well, it was Xia Tian who told me that this would make you happy."
After hesitating, he told her the truth honestly.
Anyway, Ling Suisui is so smart, as long as she asks a few more questions, he will definitely not be able to hide anything from her.
Ling Suisui thought, that’s right.
She didn't tell Xia Tian directly, but when she asked why she wanted to practice Mandarin to the first level, her answer was that she wanted to dub each character and achieve a complete interpretation of them.
Can someone who can’t speak in a work still be considered an actor? For actors who rely heavily on dubbing, there is a special adjective called "acting badly", which is quite accurate and appropriate.
Ling Suisui smiled and said, "I'm very happy. Thank you very much. Teacher Ying, it seems that I owe you a favor now."
And she also owes Xia Tian. Ling Sui will never forget her good sister.
This feeling of being taken to heart by the other person just by saying something is really heartwarming.
Xia Tian is really, just harsh in words, but soft in heart QAQ
"It's nothing, just a small matter, don't take it to heart."
Ying Nian hesitated for a moment, then asked slowly, "Sui Sui, how are you doing recently? I haven't seen you for a long time since you finished filming."
When he said this to the end, even Ying Nian realized the grievance in his tone.
...He wanted to cover his face. What was going on? Was he acting like a spoiled child with Ling Suisui?
Ling Suisui felt the same way at the moment. There was a noticeable pause in her tone before she answered:
"I'm fine, I've been attending school. Since Qin Xian finished filming, I often think of the days when the crew was filming. The atmosphere in our Ding Fengbo was really good."
With just one sentence, she defined their relationship as colleagues on the crew, which inevitably made Ying Nian feel frustrated.
He wanted to say that he still liked her very much and thought of her often. Even though he had finished filming and was completely separated from Zhao Jing, he still couldn't let go of his longing for her.
But in the end, he swallowed the words.
Let’s leave it this way for now. It’s decent for adults to leave some wiggle room for each other.
And...he didn't want to say it out loud, and he didn't want to give Ling Suisui a reason to distance himself from her.
He really liked her, and he was willing to stay with her even if he could only be a friend.
While Yingnian is working hard to unlock the "Infatuated Guardian" achievement badge for Ling Suisui, Ling Suisui still spends every day fulfillingly.
Under her suggestion and leadership, the four-member group of Jinbangtiming has formed a habit of discussing scripts every Saturday night.
Script discussions are usually conducted online. If Ji Zhaoying flies to the imperial capital, offline team building will be carried out. In addition to discussing the plot, they often eat, drink and have fun together to develop feelings and tacit understanding.
Originally, ever since the episode of Happy Sunday in which Ling Suisui participated was broadcast, Chen Yuening still felt uncomfortable seeing her. Not only did his eyes always wander around, he also didn't know where to put his hands and feet.
But as they met more frequently in their daily lives, hung out from time to time, and joked with each other online, the awkwardness gradually dissipated and they returned to being good friends again.
Ling Suisui was happy to see this. After all, they were going to join the crew together in June. If he continued like that, they wouldn't be able to shoot the drama.
During her school years, Zhang Wen visited the capital once.
Not only did she complete some offline work, she also took Ling Suisui to shoot many sets of photos.
Zhang Wen: "You don't have any schedule right now, it's the best time to save some business photos. Let's shoot a dozen or twenty sets in one go and save them for later."
Ling Suisui had no objection to this. As someone who had experience as a popular star, she knew that what Zhang Wen said made sense.
Once an artist becomes famous, he or she will be busy all the time. In fact, it’s not that I don’t even have time to take the photo sets, but I’m just very tired physically and mentally. I don’t want to work at all. I just want to sleep a little longer.
Therefore, she actively cooperated with the photo shoot and tried various styles of makeup.
Taking these pictures is not just for business, sometimes it is also for competing for business. For example, a certain style of makeup may just fit the needs of a certain project for a certain role, so you can use photos to leave a good impression on the casting director.
In addition to taking business photos, Ling Suisui also shot several commercials.
With her status, she can’t get a proper title from any brand, but she can still post a few promotional videos on her personal account. Zhang Wen helped her negotiate the deal, and the quote from a certain brand was ten times higher than what she had received nearly seven years ago.
Even so, it is still a drop in the bucket compared to the advertising fees she earned before she traveled through time.
This is the entertainment industry. There is a world of difference between being famous and not being famous.
In April, the show "Sparkling Stars" in which Wen Jiayan participated was launched.
At this time, Xia Tian had returned to school, and Xiang Yanchu's filming on the crew was also coming to an end. In order to take care of her studies, the crew concentrated her scenes in the front as much as possible, and now she returns to school more and more frequently.
Aoqi Video attached great importance to this talent show. It not only cooperated with Weibo to promote many hot searches, but also bought a lot of advertisements.
When the first episode was released, members of 404 watched it while eating hotpot in the dormitory.
Ling Suisui logged into Aoqi Video on his tablet. As soon as he clicked into the homepage, he saw eight screens of recommendations. It was really a full display.
The talent show has been held for so many years that the audience has already become familiar with its rules.
During the self-rating and seat selection session, Ling Suisui chatted with them: "Which level do you think Ayan will choose?"
"I don't know." Xia Tian replied, "I've seen her performance in dance class. It's average, but I don't know what level she is among the trainees."
Xiang Yanchu thought for a moment and said, "If we compare her to the strength of my class... her foundation is not bad. As long as she studies the singing and dancing of girl groups, she can at least get a C, and at best a B."
Students in the performing arts department also need to prepare for singing and dancing for the art exams. Of course, the examiners' assessment of them is definitely not as strict as that of professional vocal music and dance departments. It only looks at the candidates' voice and physical condition.
Therefore, students who are able to get into the Film Academy may not be good at singing, but they will definitely have good coordination in their limbs.
They were eating and chatting, and Wen Jiayan didn't seem to be appearing so soon.
Ling Suisui remembered something and asked Xiang Yanchu, "Why are there only ABCD and F in the talent show, but no E? Is it because this 101 system came from Korea, and the E there is not pronounced?"
Xiang Yanchu: "I don't rule out this possibility, but the more general view is that there are only ABCD to rate the trainees' abilities. If you are rated F, it means fail, which means you are not even qualified enough to be rated."
Ling Sui nodded, and some little knowledge that might not be used was added.
They waited for a long time, until the venue was almost full, before Wen Jiayan came on stage.
When the video screen showed her, Ling Suisui and others who were eating beef immediately looked at the screen and couldn't help but exclaimed.
Wen Jiayan is tall and has a good body proportion. When she first appeared, she wore high-waisted shorts, which made her legs look like they were all below her neck.
Her makeup today was also done very well, which deepened her mixed-race look and made her look very charismatic.
Even though she appeared on the stage with three other teammates and stood at the edge, her face with a strong advantage in looks quickly attracted the attention of many viewers.
When the camera showed her walking over in slow motion, the comments were full of "Ahhhhhh", and some even said that she should be crowned the most beautiful girl of this season.
Ling Suisui noticed the name tag on Wen Jiayan's waist. Her self-rating was C, and the company column was Zhuoran Entertainment.
She searched online and found out that this company has a deep cooperative relationship with Aoqi Video, and that trainees from previous sessions had successfully debuted in Aoqi's limited group.
The three people in the dormitory ate while watching and found that there were quite a lot of shots of Wen Jiayan.
To be precise, there are quite a few shots of the four-member group of Zhuoran Entertainment.
Not only do they have interviews, but there are also lounge segments, and everyone has extra tests, and even when they are on stage getting ready, they have friendly interactions with the trainees in the audience.
It is no exaggeration to say that even the shot of the captain of Zhuoran Entertainment fixing his hair is much longer than the fleeting shots of some trainees' stage performances.
Xiang Yanchu has participated in a talent show before, and her expression at the moment is quite interesting, it seems like she has figured out something.
Xia Tian asked her directly: "Are the four of them stable?"
"...It's hard to say." Xiang Yanchu answered cautiously, "Before the final ranking is announced, everything is possible."
Ling Suisui shrugged. Anyway, she watched this show purely for Wen Jiayan.
Zhuoran Entertainment's group performed well on the first stage, and Wen Jiayan's rating was raised from C to B. The program team also arranged a post-interview for her.
The director asked: "Your roommate Xiang Yanchu debuted as the second place, do you have any expectations for your ranking?"
Xiang Yanchu was stunned. She actually had something to do with this?
Well, even if she is a member of the girl group Antenna, it is not surprising that Aoqi Video wants to use her to stir up popularity, and there is no need to pay copyright fees for mentioning her name.
In the show, Wen Jiayan looked very nervous and her body was shaking a little.
There was only her in the picture, but during the actual interview, she was surrounded by a group of people. There was a huge crowd in front of her, filled with countless heads.
She replied: "I haven't set a specific ranking for myself... I just want to do my best and leave no regrets."
After the main film was over, Ling Sui opened his phone to check Weibo.
Sure enough, the hot search list was full of Star-Glittering related topics. Aoqi really spent a lot of money on publicity.
Among the various hot searches, the one at the top of the entertainment list is #Wen Jiayan and Xiang Yanchu are roommates#.
When I scrolled through the popular posts, I saw that they were all program clips reposted by marketing accounts. The texts were also very similar. Someone even posted photos of the two of them, asking which one was better looking.
Xia Tian frowned: "How can she use this topic to market herself? Sui Sui and I have never argued about who our roommate is."
Ling Suisui said matter-of-factly: "She is in closed training on the show, how can she care about the trending search. This topic was either bought by Zhuoran or Aoqi, Yanchu, don't blame her."
"Don't worry, I understand."
Xiang Yanchu sighed and said, "The program team wants to promote hot searches, and the marketing accounts want to earn traffic. These are all old tricks, and there is nothing new."
Therefore, no matter how the fans in the topic quarrel, unless it becomes a very embarrassing situation for both sides, it will not have much impact on the relationship between the stars.
Xiang Yanchu: "I don't care. The most difficult days for me are over. I just hope that she is mentally prepared."
However, based on the character Wen Jiayan had shown before...
Several people in the dormitory looked at each other, feeling that the situation was a little uncertain.
With concern and expectations for Wen Jiayan, voting for her became a daily routine for the members of dormitory 404.
Ling Suisui pitches in every day, and she also bought a few boxes of milk as a token of her appreciation for her friendship.
She couldn't finish so much yogurt by herself, so she wanted to share some with Xia Tian and let her help share the burden, but she found that she bought even more.
Well, she knew that although Xia Tian often disliked Wen Jiayan, he still treated her as a good friend.
As for the leftover yogurt in their dormitory... Ling Sui gave it to Chen Yuening.
"Drink more." She said sincerely, "After you finish drinking, leave the bottle cap and return it to me, or you can scan the code yourself, give it to Wen Jiayan and then throw it away."
Chen Yuening: "...Okay."
As Wen Jiayan's classmate, although he was not very familiar with her, he and she appeared on the Weibo hot search list shortly after the show started.
However, since Xiang Yanchu didn't mind, Chen Yuening didn't mind it either.
Ling Suisui drinks yogurt every day and also pays attention to Wen Jiayan's ranking.
Perhaps it was the effect of Zhuoran Entertainment's intensive marketing that Wen Jiayan's ranking has always been high. She has been in the top nine since the first announcement of the rankings. In the subsequent ranking changes, she has repeatedly jumped within the top nine, with her highest ranking even reaching fourth.
She also firmly established herself as the most beautiful beauty in the world. Although she was pulled out for beauty contests at every performance and was called "royal family" and "O-Lady" by fans of other trainees, her popularity remained high thanks to the attention paid to her by these people.
After the third performance, the last ranking release before the finals, her ranking stabilized at sixth place.
Wen Jiayan is about to participate in the star-studded finals, and Ling Suisui has also spent every minute of the finals week racing against time, preparing to join the cast of "The List of Top Performers".
"The List of Golden Climbers" is a modern drama, and the filming location is in the imperial capital. According to the producer's idea, the crew did not need to go the traffic marketing route, so the opening ceremony was arranged very low-key, without inviting any media, let alone fans.
A few days before the filming started, the four children met in the studio.
Don’t think that modern dramas don’t need to take makeup photos. Not only do they have to take them, but also because there is a wider range of costume styles to choose from, and there are more clothes to change into.
Except for the school uniforms which had been decided in advance, the casual clothes of several characters had to be tried over and over again.
The stylist originally allowed them to bring their own clothes, thinking that the clothes they chose would better match their character's temperament and it would save some time in choosing clothes. However, after discovering that Chen Yuening's clothes were all trendy brands and Ji Zhaoying's clothes were all luxury goods, he took back this right.
Among the four of them, Ling Suisui was the most cooperative with changing clothes. She originally thought that her makeup trial process would go the smoothest, but she didn't expect that even though everyone else had passed, the stylist was still circling her, looking her up and down, left and right, and was simply not satisfied.
Seeing her like this, Ling Sui's heart skipped a beat.
She asked: "Teacher, do you think there is something wrong with me?"
The stylist frowned and said, "It's just... I always feel that it's a little inconsistent with the character image I imagined..."
The stylist thought and thought, and finally took a photo of her and blocked her face.
"That's right." She said this with a somewhat helpless tone, "If you don't look at your face, your outfit is still very consistent with the character's tone."
Ling Suisui:? ? ?
Ling Suisui was very confused: "Please be more specific, is it because my expression was not right when I took the photo?"
"I don't know. I can't tell."
The stylist replied: "You have such a pretty face and bright eyes that you don't look like an ordinary student."
Ling Suisui: ...
Is this a compliment to her or a criticism of her?
