31. Itinerary
Deng Ling prepared herself mentally before knocking on the door, and coincidentally, it was Guan Miao who opened the door.
"Sister Deng Ling, you're here, come in quickly."
As she spoke, she noticed the gift Deng Ling was holding. "Why did you bring something?"
"This is all a little gift from me. Where are your uncle and aunt?"
"My dad is out and he probably won't be back for three to five days. My mom is reading upstairs, please wait a moment."
"Why."
Without waiting for Deng Ling to refuse, Guan Miao ran upstairs to ask Guan's mother to come down.
After Guan Miao's brief introduction, the two got to know each other, and Deng Ling learned that Guan's mother was actually an archaeology teacher at B University.
"What about your father?"
"My dad?" Guan Miao kept peeling. "Well, to put it simply, my dad is a scientific researcher and can't come home many times a year."
"Is that so?" Deng Ling nodded thoughtfully.
After dinner, Deng Ling and Guan Miao went into the study to discuss the next arrangements.
As soon as the door closed, Deng Ling asked, "Why didn't you tell me you came from an educated family?"
Guan Miao looked at her in confusion, "You didn't ask."
She choked and waved her hands, saying, "Forget it, let's not talk about this. You're just getting famous now, so it's a good opportunity to hype yourself up. Netizens are really into highly educated people these days!"
Deng Ling became more and more excited as she spoke, as if she could see the number of Guan Miao's fans skyrocketing after the message was sent.
But Guan Miao frowned and looked at her, "Sister Deng Ling, let me remind you, if you leak any information about my father, you will most likely be invited to have tea.
So, for your own safety, I advise you not to think about this."
Her face froze. She was so excited just now that she didn't expect there would be such a hidden danger. But it would be a shame to let go of such a good hype hotspot.
So she didn't give up and asked, "Really?"
"no."
Seeing Guan Miao so sure, Deng Ling had to suppress the idea.
She wanted the artist to be famous, but she never thought of sacrificing herself for the sake of fame. Whatever, if she missed out, she missed out. If her family couldn't hype her up, then she would hype Guan Miao up.
Anyway, Guan Miao’s academic qualifications and campus life are fine, so it’s not difficult to do it.
Thinking of this, Deng Ling took the initiative to apologize: "I'm sorry, Miaomiao, I was wrong just now. I won't do it again in the future. But you should also be careful now that you are famous. There may be paparazzi near your home. You should also tell your family about this."
Hearing Deng Ling say this, Guan Miao finally breathed a sigh of relief and agreed with a smile.
In her mind, she is an artist and it is normal for her to be the focus of public attention, but her parents are not, and their peaceful life should not be disrupted because of her.
"Okay, let's talk about your plans for the next half month."
"good."
Taking out the tablet, Deng Ling told her everything one by one.
"Now that the drama is so popular, I've been getting all sorts of interview requests. Three have already been confirmed: Huo Huo Zhui Ju at 2 PM on the 12th; Lizhi Video at 9 AM on the 13th; and the last one is Kuai Ren Yi Bu at 1 PM on the 14th.
The good news is that their interview locations are all in City C, so there is no need to run around.
I have sent the interview process and the host's interview style to your email. This time, it will be a one-on-one interview, so you must prepare well.
"Don't worry, I will prepare the manuscript carefully."
"In addition to the interview, there's also a variety show called 'Let's Go on an Adventure' scheduled for recording on the 20th. It'll probably be from 7am to around 10pm. Can you handle that?"
Guan Miao nodded. "I can. I've watched two seasons of this variety show before, so I know a little bit about the routine."
Seeing that she understood, Deng Ling was relieved. "This variety show originally invited Shen Yujun and Yu Leming, but Shen Yujun said that he had to join the crew in two days and it was difficult to ask for leave, so this opportunity was postponed to you."
Then, as if afraid that she would feel unhappy about being a substitute, he immediately added, "Although this variety show is not as popular as the first two seasons, the basic audience base is still good. It's a good thing that you can be on it."
"Don't worry, Sister Deng Ling, I will definitely perform well."
Deng Ling patted her head. "Very good. Remember, I don't ask you to make a big splash, I just ask you to be steady and don't let anyone catch you.
Talk less and do more. If you really can't do it, then work harder and do a good job of logistics."
Seeing Guan Miao nod obediently, he continued, "I'm helping you find endorsements in the next two days. There are two good ones. When the samples arrive, try them and see which one you like, and then I'll talk to you.
Now, let’s talk about the most important thing.”
"What?"
"The drama you're going to take on next!"
After saying that, Deng Ling walked over to her, patted her shoulder and said earnestly: "'Ding Feng Hua' has 60 episodes. With the current popularity, it is estimated that it will last until mid-April.
You have to seize this wave of popularity, pick the best script and join the crew quickly to retain your current fans."
Her tone became increasingly anxious. "Most of the fans following you now are attracted by your character in the drama and your looks. What you need to do now is to retain these fans and turn them into loyal fans.
If you don't join the group within a month, all your fans will leave. Which fan would want their idol to be unmotivated?
Deng Ling's words were so serious that Guan Miao almost lost his temper. "Is it that serious? Does Sister Deng Ling have any script recommendations?"
Seeing that she was so understanding, Deng Ling smiled slightly, took out two scripts that she had prepared long ago from her bag and handed them to her.
"One is a contemporary idol novel, where you play the heroine's best friend, whose main role is to assist the heroine. The other is a fairy tale novel, where you play the heroine's senior sister, who has the highest level of martial arts and dies in the end to save the heroine. You can be considered a white moonlight character."
Guan Miao flipped through the list briefly. "They're all idol dramas. Are there no other options? For example, anti-Japanese war dramas, science fiction dramas, family ethics dramas, etc.?"
"Idol dramas attract fans quickly, and with that popularity, you have a better chance of getting serious drama resources. Once you get a serious drama, I can take advantage of the opportunity to hype up topics like your acting skills and transformation.
If you're lucky enough to win awards like Best Newcomer or Best Supporting Actress, you'll be firmly established among the top 35 actresses. Then my plan is..."
"Wait, wait," Guan Miao interrupted Deng Ling as she was about to speak. "Sister Deng Ling, I found a comedy about workplace life in the script Sister Chi Yi gave me. I think it's pretty good. Do you want to take a look?"
"Do you have this script? Let me see it."
"good."
A few seconds later, Guan Miao came back from his room with the script and handed it to Deng Ling with some anticipation. She took it and flipped through a few pages. Seeing the dense marks on it, she guessed that Guan Miao really liked it.
“Who is the director and screenwriter?”
"The director's name seems to be Geng Le, and the screenwriter is Xia Ping. I heard the director has only made two films with mediocre results, and the screenwriter is a newcomer. They met a few years ago and hit it off immediately, polishing this original script together.
It’s just because they are new and don’t have a good track record, so investors don’t trust them and are unwilling to invest.”
