Chapter 727: The Little Stepmother (31)
Even her physical form has changed. The princess will not hunch over like an ordinary old woman. Even in her old age, she will still be the most graceful, a quality etched into her soul.
When the audition ended, Wen Wan instantly detached herself from the role. Although she still had the makeup of an old woman, her hair was white, and her face had wrinkles, no one would think she was an old lady. She was completely different from her previous state.
Wen Wan looked at Director Liu Wenfeng and knew that this time it should be a sure thing.
After Wen Wan left the room, Liu Wenfeng, the screenwriter, and the others began to discuss the matter.
The screenwriter said, "Chen Qian is the most suitable. She portrayed all three stages of the character without any sense of incongruity. She is the princess in my script. No one else can portray the princess in my script."
This is extremely high praise.
Producer: "She acted very well, but she is too inexperienced. Chen Huai is better; she is more experienced, has acted for many years, and is also a film queen. She has strong appeal, which can guarantee box office success."
The screenwriter said, "She has already acted in Director Chen's movies, so she is bound to win awards. Sign her now while her market value is low. Once she wins an award, it will cost much more to sign her. Moreover, her film 'Spring Sprout' carried the box office, and her web series 'Night Butterfly' became a hit. This is enough to prove that her acting skills are enough to make the audience watch her works."
Liu Wenfeng finally made the decision, "Chen Qian. Since there is someone most suitable, why look for someone else? Besides, I believe she can surprise me."
The next day, Qiao Min received a call from the production team, which surprised and delighted her. After all, this was Director Liu's movie, and she was undoubtedly the female lead. In today's film industry, which is dominated by male-dominated movies, this is really rare. The opportunity was hard to come by, so she contacted the artist and quickly signed a contract with the production team.
After that, Wen Wan focused on studying the script, and Qiao Min didn't give Wen Wan any other work. In between, she went to shoot promotional materials for her own endorsement.
Qiao Min also asked Wen Wan to do a live stream to give back to her fans.
"Your fans have now exceeded ten million. Although there are some zombie fans that the platform has filled in, the data shows that your active fans account for a significant proportion. Moreover, your fan circle has been initially established, and your fan club has been set up. You haven't come up with a fan name yet. The fan group has sent a few fan leaders to contact me and ask you to come up with a fan name and also to verify your fan club. Since you haven't had a proper interaction with your fans since your debut, you should do a live stream to interact with them more."
Wen Wan was somewhat surprised by this.
She didn't pay much attention to the fandom because of the original owner's past, which had negative online reputation, so she avoided it and didn't even open private messages.
Aside from reposting drama promotions and variety show content, they haven't posted any other promotional material.
Wen Wan opened her account, and the top row of the latest post was filled with confessions from fans; the vulgar language had completely disappeared.
There are also over 100,000 fans in the super topic.
Although she can't compare to top stars, she's still considered a minor second or third-tier celebrity. However, Wen Wan was still moved by the overwhelming enthusiasm of her fans, which was the first time she had ever seen such a powerful display of passion from them.
It's time to get some beauty powder.
So he agreed to do a live stream.
After Wen Wan agreed, Qiao Min contacted a live streaming platform that had a long-term partnership with the company, and the two parties signed a live streaming contract for the platform.
Wen Wan released a teaser on the platform.
Next, we considered what to do on the live stream, since chatting can't just be pure chatting, so we discussed it with Qiao Min.
Singing and dancing are not Wen Wan's strong suits.
Wen Wan was even less suited to the arts of playing the zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting.
In the end, I might as well do mukbang (eating broadcasts). Mukbang is very popular now, and it's also what Wen Wan is best at.
Qiao Min agreed, as mukbang (eating broadcast) is indeed the least likely to cause problems.
the next day.
Gu Qian went to the company early, and his assistant (former agent) helped set up the live streaming equipment. It was his first time visiting the Gu residence, and he was shocked by the mansion.
The housekeeper was also busy preparing the food for the live stream. After all, Wen Wan was only responsible for eating; if she were to cook, it would be a disaster, the kind that could poison her to death.
However, Wen Wan still provided theoretical support. At home, Wen Wan had given her aunt a lot of recipes, claiming that she found them online. They turned out to be very delicious, and her aunt was very happy.
Everything is ready.
Wen Wan turned on her live streaming equipment, and in an instant, the fans who had been waiting rushed in. Wen Wan did not expect there to be so many people. Not only fans, but also haters. After all, Wen Wan's haters were particularly stubborn.
The assistant, who is also a moderator, immediately started blocking the comments of those who were criticizing the content.
—Wife!!!
—My sister is so beautiful and lovely.
—Shen Die, I love you.
—Chen Die, my wife, my most beloved wife.
—The spring buds are so beautiful.
A large proportion of the audience are fans of the character, and I saw someone asking if Shen Die ever loved the male lead.
The male lead is a policeman, and he's the one who eventually catches Shen Die. His acting is excellent. Although there's no romantic subplot, it doesn't stop many people from getting carried away with the story, wondering why Shen Die would choose to hand over her incriminating evidence to him instead of someone else if she didn't love him.
He personally led the other person step by step into his trap, leading to his own death, and in the end, the male protagonist even resigned from his job. What is this if not love? It is a love that cannot be seen in the light of day.
Police and criminals: a taboo subject.
However, many people disagree with this view, arguing that Shen Die doesn't love anyone, not even herself.
The two sides started arguing.
Then ask Wen Wan.
Wen Wan thought about her state when she played Shen Die, and then replied, "She didn't love him, but she must have really liked that policeman, because he had something she didn't have: kindness and justice. So Shen Die chose him as the one to expose her plan, but in the end, only Shen Die herself could kill him."
"As for the male lead's resignation, according to what screenwriter Lu told me, it's because he started to doubt himself. After all, he was deceived from beginning to end, thinking he had found the truth but it turned out he was being schemed against. The male lead's mentality collapsed, but he will quickly turn over a new leaf and become a very capable police officer."
The live chat started asking a lot of questions, which Wen Wan answered slowly.
Halfway through, the food that the aunt had prepared for Wen Wan was almost finished, and then Wen Wan started her mukbang (eating broadcast).
They even started introducing the food.
Her fans were so tempted that they went crazy ordering takeout or looking for snacks. Wen Wan couldn't help but feel happy when she ate, which is quite different from most food vloggers. She really loves food.
He looked like a contented white cat.
The live stream's popularity did not decline; in fact, it attracted many viewers who were interested in food-related live streams.
The retention rate was frighteningly high, and many people were curious about the recipes. Wen Wan introduced each dish one by one. She was a theoretical expert in this area. Her assistant was stunned. This strange way of attracting fans had appeared.
She also discussed fan names with her fans, and Wen Wan suggested several, none of which involved food.
Things like braised pork belly, braised pig's trotters, etc.
Fans simply cannot imagine going out and being asked what their fan name is, and they respond with names like "Braised Pork" or "Braised Pig's Trotters"—that would be utterly horrifying.
—Honey, do you have a nickname?
“Nickname? Yes, my nickname is A-Yuan. You can call me by my nickname from now on.”
—Ah Yuan, how about we call our fan name Yuanbao?
Wen Wan liked the fan name, which sounded like it would make a lot of money, so both parties agreed harmoniously. Afterwards, they discussed the support color, which was given by the fans. Wen Wan chose her favorite pink, and only then did she realize that the support colors actually had numbers. What seemed like just pink to Wen Wan actually had so many different meanings.
