Cheng Yi'an didn't believe it at first. She seemed perfectly normal in the lounge, except that her voice was a little soft and she never dared to make eye contact with anyone.
But later, after observing for a period of time, he painfully discovered that what the man said might be true.
Yun Qing was really afraid of contact with strangers, and when she picked up takeout, she always asked the delivery person to put it in the locker, even though she had been waiting there for a long time.
After recounting these past events, Cheng Yi'an sighed and fell silent.
However, the next second, a series of sobs could be heard from the table.
"Yun Qing is so pitiful. I can't imagine what she went through to be afraid of contacting people."
"No wonder we've never heard of her before; there's such a hidden story behind it."
“It’s so pitiful. Because of psychological problems, she has been wearing a mask all the time. I’ve been wearing one for more than two years and I can’t stand it anymore, but she has made it her daily routine.”
Seeing his roommates' affected mannerisms, Cheng Yi'an's face darkened considerably. Who else was supposed to pity his future wife?
...
After finishing her meal, Yun Qing returned to her apartment.
She turned on her computer and carefully searched for the novel she was going to dub. Although she had read it once before, a cursory reading wouldn't allow her to truly grasp the characters' inner thoughts.
This is a fantasy novel that became popular last year. The female protagonist, Su Mingyue, lives up to her name, possessing noble character, as pure as the bright moon.
She is the sect's top disciple, the most powerful senior sister in the eyes of countless people, and a role model for the new generation in the immortal realm.
However, because of this, she was tricked into a conspiracy in the demon realm. Despite the suspicion of her teachers and the isolation of her fellow disciples, she remained true to her original aspiration and worked hard for the peace and safety of the cultivation world.
Such a character sounds noble and righteous, but he is very difficult to portray.
How to convince the audience of her strength and character in the early stages, how to make the audience feel sorry for her experiences in the middle stages, and how to make the audience admire her from the bottom of their hearts in the later stages—these are all great challenges for voice actors.
Yun Qing became more and more determined as she read on. Originally, she only intended to treat this interview as a backup plan, but after reading the original work, she wanted to properly portray Su Mingyue's life.
To be honest, Yunqing has always found it hard to understand why there are so many unworthy people in the entertainment industry these days. They can act out a movie without any emotion and still earn more money than an ordinary person could earn in several lifetimes.
On the one hand, such film and television works are not friendly to the audience. On the other hand, the characters in those films and television works either actually exist in history or are created by novelists with great effort. Why can some actors have no sense of respect and casually take away the creators' hard work?
Anyway, Yun Qing can't do it. If she can get the role, she will definitely try her best to recreate the radiant and elegant Su Mingyue from the book.
The novel wasn't long, only a little over 300,000 words, but it took Yun Qing seven or eight hours to finish reading it and writing character biographies.
Looking at the time again, it was already 11 p.m. I opened WeChat and saw two unread messages.
Cheng Yi'an: [Are you free now? How about we duo queue together?]
Qin Yuanbai: [Your audio was very helpful; it helped me get a good night's sleep. Thank you.]
Yun Qing replied to Cheng Yi'an first: "[Sorry, I was too busy and didn't see the message. I have some things to take care of this week, so I'm afraid I won't have time to play games with you. Sorry.]"
Yun Qing felt a little guilty because she had just received a skin from him but didn't have time to play together. Fortunately, he was a college student with plenty of free time, so she could ask him to play duo queue after she finished her voice acting work.
In response to Qin Yuanbai's thanks, Yun Qing only replied with a cat waving emoji.
Qin Yuanbai was still working on the other end. Upon hearing the WeChat notification sound, he immediately put down his computer.
Seeing Yun Qing's reply, he smiled knowingly but was also somewhat disappointed. He could tell that this young lady Yun did not want to have much contact with him.
This is actually what a normal employment relationship should be like; what else could it be?
Qin Yuanbai covered his forehead and chuckled, realizing he had been quite influenced by Sun Yiming's nonsense.
I initially just liked her voice, but now I can't help but pay more attention to her.
Shaking his head to clear away the jumbled thoughts, Qin Yuanbai closed his laptop and walked to the bedside.
He pulled the covers over himself, turned on the audio on his phone, and slowly drifted off to sleep.
Another day has passed in the blink of an eye, and it's Saturday.
Yun Qing got up early to start dressing up. Although she knew she wasn't pretty, she still wanted to present a better version of herself to compete.
When Yunqing arrived at the interview location, she realized that she had underestimated the situation.
In the bustling building, everyone was dressed smartly, while her newly bought clothes looked drab and unfashionable.
What Yun Qing didn't know was that the building housed an entertainment company and several personal studios, and the people coming and going were all involved in the entertainment industry, so they naturally paid extra attention to their outward appearance.
While she was sizing up others, they were naturally sizing her up as well.
A girl next to her looked her over from head to toe and then clicked her tongue.
"If you didn't know better, you'd think he was some big star. He came for an interview wearing a mask and sunglasses. Does he look so unpresentable?"
Yun Qing looked around and realized that she was the only one dressed like this in the recording studio. Could they be talking about her?
"I'm sorry, it's not that I can't be seen by people, it's just that I'm ugly and I'm afraid I'll scare you."
"You, you..."
Hearing Yun Qing so frankly admit that she was ugly, the girl was stunned and didn't know how to respond.
Suddenly, a staff member nearby spoke up.
"Alright! Everyone, stop arguing and be quiet, the director is coming."
Director? Yun Qing subconsciously turned around.
A man wearing a gray casual jacket walked over. He was at least 1.85 meters tall and had a powerful presence.
He was wearing a baseball cap and a black face mask. Yun Qing wondered if it was just her imagination, but she felt that the man's eyes were fixed on her.
"Director Wei, you've arrived."
The staff member went over to greet him obsequiously.
"Hmm, I think I heard an argument going on at the stairwell just now. What exactly happened?"
Upon hearing the question, Yun Qing quietly took a step back into the crowd, attempting to feign death.
Unexpectedly, the girl who had just criticized her turned out to be a conspicuous person and immediately stood up.
"Director Wei, it's like this, we're all here today to audition for the role of Su Mingyue. I was memorizing my lines when I saw her arrive late."
As she spoke, she pointed to Yun Qing.
"The notification time was 9:30, and she was only a minute late, but she also dressed up in such a mysterious way. Isn't that just being a diva?"
"Playing the big shot? Me?" Yun Qing pointed to her chest: "Are you trying to be abstract?"
The staff members next to her were frantically giving the girl meaningful glances, and she was sweating profusely.
Dressed mysteriously, arrived late, acted like a diva...
This description seems to apply not only to Yun Qing, but also to another person present.
