Bai Ni asked with difficulty, "You were paid the price for an extra?"
Linghu Lan looked utterly dejected. "A little higher than an extra, the price for seventh or eighth female lead..."
"puff!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Bai Ni and Lan Qin couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Damn it!
That director is amazing! He managed to make money off a money-grubber; you have to admire him.
Linghu Lan was devastated.
That director is too cunning. This is blatant exploitation. He's making me do the work of a top star while paying me the price of an 18th-tier celebrity.
This is absolutely outrageous.
As the group left the movie theater, Bai Ni and Lan Qin were still laughing happily; this joke would keep them laughing for a year.
Linghu Lan sighed, rubbing her forehead.
t_t~~
Please let me go.
...
After its release, the movie indeed swept the global box office charts, holding the top spot for several weeks.
The global box office results are quite impressive.
Moreover, as the year draws to a close, various award ceremonies are in full swing, and honors follow one after another.
Wei Ran was nominated for Best Supporting Actress at an international award.
Although she didn't win the award in the end, countless cameras were focused on her the moment she made her international debut.
Linghu Lan knew that her position was secure.
We are getting closer and closer to completing the mission.
For a time, Linghu Lan dominated the entertainment headlines of major media outlets and appeared on screens in major cinemas and on television. The hype only subsided when someone watched the movie more than ten times.
...
Outside the movie theater.
Su Rao, with her bare face, looked at the huge poster of Linghu Lan and felt as if she were about to vomit blood.
A second chance at life.
What was the purpose of it all?
Do you want to relive the pain you suffered before?
She squatted down at the entrance of the movie theater and burst into tears.
Once her celebrity aura faded, without makeup, she looked no different from an ordinary housewife, and even appeared more颓废 (颓废 is a difficult word to translate directly, but it conveys a sense of listlessness, apathy, and a lack of motivation).
Someone gave her a strange look, then quickly looked away.
Many people cry in this city every day.
One more won't make a difference.
Some people stopped to listen, and a somewhat hoarse female voice came through.
"Hey beautiful, what's wrong?"
Su Rao looked up.
She didn't recognize the woman in front of her, but it was obvious that she had undergone plastic surgery. Having worked in the entertainment industry, she had seen many plastic surgery faces and recognized her at a glance, especially since this woman's surgery made her look like Wei Ran.
Wei Ran is now a big star and a plastic surgery template; countless people want to look like her.
This is just awful!
She ignored them, wiped away her tears, and left.
The crowd began to panic.
"Didn't that look like Su Rao just now?"
"Su Rao? Which Su Rao?"
"Who else could it be? The one that plagiarized!"
"Somewhat similar, but surely not to that extent?"
"There's nothing to sympathize with, let's go!"
The woman who had undergone plastic surgery watched Su Rao walk away and revealed a malicious smile.
Sister, I'm back!
You're still unhappy to see me!
She scoffed and swayed away with her slender waist.
She is Su Jiao.
She escaped capture and even used money to get plastic surgery, changing her appearance and going into hiding. Today, while watching a movie, she ran into Su Rao as soon as she came out. What a small world!
Hearing about Su Rao's story, she felt truly gratified. Compared to Wei Ran, she hated Su Rao even more for resorting to underhanded tactics; this was retribution.
She touched her face. The cosmetic surgery technology these days is amazing; she's become so beautiful, and life is so much better than before.
The phone rang.
She answered the call.
"Honey, I'm done watching the movie, I'll be right back. Mm, I love you, wait for me!"
She quickly hailed a taxi, which drove to a villa.
