Chapter 12
#Celebrities’ acting skills are not as good as variety show NPCs#
In the dim room, Jia Zhenzhen turned around slowly.
There were no traces of tears on her face anymore, and her eyes no longer showed any fragile emotions.
Even at this moment, she knew that the Starlight Detective Agency had found out the truth, but she still remained calm.
Dai Zheng: "You knew that Zhang Nuo wanted to harm you, so you instigated the people he bribed to tamper with the things he prepared."
"Yes," she admitted. "I wanted him to die."
"You don't have to do this! As long as you gather evidence that he wants to harm you, you can send him to jail."
Jia Zhenzhen smiled.
She gently gathered the strands of hair on her forehead, her eyes seemed to be looking at them, but more like looking at her past through the group of people in front of her.
She said: "He was the first to kill. He killed our love and killed my husband who loved me the most."
The camera zoomed in, tears came out of her eyes, but there was still a smile on her lips.
"He doesn't love me, doesn't love me...then let him die."
"Those who trample on sincerity must pay the price for it."
…
Wen Jiayan exclaimed at the tablet and gave a thumbs up to Ling Suisui who was standing next to her.
"Sui Sui, that's amazing, I didn't expect you to have such strong acting skills!"
Ling Suisui modestly said: "There is still a lot of room for improvement."
"Everyone on the barrage is praising you."
Wen Jiayan randomly picked a few and read them to her. They all said that Jia Zhenzhen's acting was explosive, that she was madly admiring beauties, and that her eye acting was amazing.
In the early stage, she was a weak and helpless little wife, but in the end, she turned into a dark boss. However, her love-brained character runs through the whole story. Has the performance of NPCs in reasoning variety shows become so unexpected now?
Several clips of Ling Sui crying were made into animated graphics. The program’s publicity department created the topic entry #This episode of reasoning is so immersive# and found some marketing accounts to post the red article, which soon made it to the bottom of the entertainment hot search list.
With the attendance of celebrity fans and show audiences, the trending searches continued to rise, ranking third at its peak.
Wen Jiayan exclaimed: "Sui Sui, you are on the trending search, are you going to be famous?"
Compared to her excitement, Ling Suisui herself seemed extremely calm.
She told her: "You're overthinking it. This is just a promotional topic for the show."
Only the most popular one was posting her GIF, and it wasn’t a single person, but one of the GIFs in a nine-square grid.
As for the others... they are all recommended by fans of each company.
"After all, it's on the trending search. I saw a lot of people mention Jia Zhenzhen in real time."
Ling Suisui smiled and said nothing.
Let alone whether she is going to be famous or not, not to mention the passers-by who browse Weibo, just look at the fans and audiences who watch the show, how many people know that the actress who plays Jia Zhenzhen is Ling Suisui?
Even if it was a small fire, it was Jia Zhenzhen who was angry, not her.
Moreover, it was just a hot search on the previous entertainment list, which is really nothing. Some big marketing companies have to appear on hundreds of hot searches a year and contribute kpis to Weibo crazily. They are just short of moving their eating, drinking, defecating and urinating to the hot searches, and only then are they barely able to be included in the ranks of xx students and xx flowers.
In the Internet age, audiences' memories are very limited, so Ling Suisui continues to remain calm.
Despite this, Wen Jiayan was still very envious.
"If I had known this path existed, I would have gone to record a variety show during the National Day holiday. As long as you sign up, you should be able to be selected."
It’s hard for ordinary people to say, but she is studying in the experimental class of the Performance Department of the Film Academy. Wen Jiayan still has this confidence.
Xia Tian said coldly, "Being selected doesn't mean you'll get screen time, and having screen time doesn't mean you'll be on the hot search list. There are so many mystery variety shows where the audience will widely praise a certain NPC for his good acting skills, and I've only seen one person like Sui Sui."
Wen Jiayan was choked by Xia Tian's words again. Why did she like to argue with her so much?
But...Wen Jiayan admitted that she had a point.
Since the division of classes, the experimental class has completed two monthly performances. Ling Sui's acting ability, scriptwriting ability, and line delivery ability are obvious to all. If one were to choose the top acting talent in the class, most people would choose her.
She is the top student in the class and also the most diligent one. When a person has talent, ability, and hard work, who can compare to her?
The production crew of "Mystery in Progress" was also very satisfied with Ling Sui's performance. The producer even called Tang Bing to express his gratitude and suggested that Ling Sui come more often, preferably as a permanent NPC in the third season.
Regarding this matter, Tang Bing asked Ling Suisui for his opinion.
Ling Suisui thought for a moment and replied, "Although this opportunity is rare, if I can't balance filming and studies, I would still prefer to study at school and lay a solid foundation."
Going there once is for rescue and experience, but going there permanently is like working, the nature is completely different.
Moreover, the content of reasoning variety shows is definitely centered around celebrities, and there are very few characters like Jia Zhenzhen with a clear character arc. It wasn't worth it for her to travel all the way just to be a background.
This answer made Tang Bing very satisfied, as it proved that Ling Sui had a stable mentality. She will not be dazzled by a little bit of popularity on the Internet, and will not rush to think about how to become famous and make money. At the same time, she also knows what she should do most at this stage.
Therefore, she is very optimistic about Ling Sui's future and officially included her in the list of candidate actors for new projects.
However, these are just Tang Bing's inner thoughts, and Ling Suisui is not aware of them at the moment.
The system still feels sorry for her as to why she didn’t buy the “popularity halo buff” when the show was aired. As long as she saves up the sign-in rewards and goes to the study room less often, she will definitely be able to accumulate enough points.
If you buy this, the host's popularity will definitely go up several levels. Those potential targets might even notice her presence and develop an initial favorable impression of her.
Ling Suisui: ...
Forget it, she reminded herself, don't have unrealistic expectations of the sister-in-law system.
She explained: [The audience of this program are people who like to watch mystery programs. They will at most praise the NPC's acting skills, but will not be interested in digging deeper, so it is not cost-effective to use it here. 】
——More importantly, this halo costs 200 points, which is too expensive, and Ling Suisui can’t bear it.
After signing in for thirty consecutive days, the door on the right side of the system's internal space opened to her.
On the left is the study room, and on the right is the optional classroom. As long as she enters the subject she wants to learn, the system will automatically detect her current level and match the appropriate AI course.
Well... although the default recommended courses of the sister-in-law system are cooking classes, housework classes, etc., as long as it has a search function, Ling Suisui will pretend not to see it.
The system can provide all kinds of courses, but Ling Suisui cannot learn everything. Because only her spirit can enter the space, but not her body, she will not be able to learn martial arts, dance, etc. just by using her brain.
Ling Sui once questioned the limitations of the optional courses. The system told her that after she signed in for a year in a row, her spiritual body would be able to simulate her physical real-time condition 1:1, and she would no longer be restricted.
Ling Suisui doubted very much whether the sister-in-law system had too many hosts who ran away, which was why it required signing in for xx days to unlock related functions...
Is it possible that its performance is entirely supported by the daily guarantee?
Before the one-year period was over, Ling Suisui only signed up for one English class. Language requires listening, speaking, reading and writing. She listens and writes in her internal space, and practices reading and speaking in reality. In this way, when her English level improves by leaps and bounds, others will not doubt her.
The English course that the system matched for her charged 2 credits per hour. Ling Sui compared it with the price of 1 credit per hour in the study room and found it to be a great deal.
But after signing up for English classes, Ling Sui's points were consumed at a faster rate. Therefore, there was no way Ling Sui would buy the “Hot Halo Buff” which cost 200 points.
The cheaper one, with visible effects to improve acting skills, can be purchased when encountering a performance bottleneck. She has reserved points for this purpose.
System: [Host, do you really not intend to use the "Explosive Red Aura Buff"? 】
Ling Suisui thought for a moment: [If there is any gift package that comes with this item, I will consider using it. 】
If it's free, you can try it out; but if it requires spending points, forget it.
Ling Sui always felt that compared to this halo of unknown effect, the time saved and the knowledge learned in the brain would never backfire on her.
No matter how good the external force is, it is not as reliable as enriching yourself.
system:……
System: [There will be no more gift packs, please actively unlock achievements. Achievement rewards are distributed in the form of a turntable, and you may have a chance to get it. 】
Ling Suisui responded with a very positive attitude, but took no action… at all.
She didn't know what was on the achievements list, so how could she unlock it? Besides, it is impossible for her to be driven by system tasks for props and points.
Let it be. For now, just being able to sign in is enough for her to attend classes and study.
However, Ling Sui just wanted to study step by step in school, but someone wanted to drag her into the battlefield of the entertainment industry.
Three days after the show was broadcast, her performance clips became a hot topic again, with the topic being #Celebrities’ acting skills are not as good as variety show NPCs#. The most popular one was the comparison between her crying scenes and Guo Quan’s crying scenes.
Guo Quan is a popular male actor who has gained popularity this year.
His crying scene level... Don't even mention whether I could relate to the scene or not, it's even hard to tell that this is how he cries. I still couldn't help laughing.
This guy's acting skills are considered poor even among the traffic stars. Comparing Ling Suisui with him, he will definitely be defeated in seconds without leaving anything behind.
But this is not Ling Sui's red manuscript - it can be seen from the hot search topics that she is just a tool used to attack Guo Quan.
It is hard to say whether the mastermind behind this trending search has achieved his goal, but Ling Suisui’s accounts on all platforms have been conquered by Guo Quan’s fans who have been overwhelmed.
The forwarding section, comment section, private message column... basically all of them are filled with crazy insults and personal attacks against her.
The tree wants to be still, but the wind does not stop.
