Chapter 48 – The Toad Wants To Eat Swan Meat (PART 1)

Recap:

Qi Lan’s efficiency was really beyond comparison. Bai Qingyan took it and looked at the big character above: “The Devastatingly Beautiful Demon Flower” .

===

“This is one of the hot topics on the Internet and now it’s going to be a web drama.” Qi Lan explained.

“Web Drama?”

“Yes! Web drama! You are a newcomer. If you want to be famous in an instant, fame-seeking using others is pointless! The best way is by media promotion. I also believe you don’t want to be a vase*, and I don’t have a hobby of nurturing people with just pretty faces.”

{T/N: pretty face, no talent}

She didn’t want to be a flower vase! Otherwise, she wouldn’t have come out early and studied at school.

“I’ve seen this one. It’s very beautiful! So, after shooting, the ratings won’t be too bad. As to whether it can be a hit, it will depend on your acting skills in the end, but the script is good.” Qi Lan took a sip of her coffee. When she talked, she always had a blank face and cold eyes, and she was clean and tidy.

Bai Qingyan nodded slightly and read the script, “I am going to audition for the female lead role?”

“Yes! Female lead!” Qi Lan nodded. “In today’s era, web dramas aren’t popular yet, everyone thinks that web dramas are inferior to other productions, so a newcomer like you should start with this. With the advent of the Internet era, the future of web dramas will certainly get a boost. At first you will experience hardship but eventually, you’ll achieve success. Now, you are the new star on the block!”

Bai Qingyan smiled at Qi Lan. She had to admit, Qi Lan was really awesome and far-sighted.

Five years later, with the popularity of web dramas, many top stars would adopt more humble roles and start shooting in film web dramas. The main reason was that the production cycle of web dramas was much shorter than that of common film and television dramas.

Also, the online network directly saved the time and labor-consuming work of film arrangement. Most of the movie directors would spend heaps of money to broadcast in winter and summer holidays. But when a web drama was produced, it could be broadcasted as soon as it was propagated.

There were many advantages.

When Qi Lan’s gaze fell on Bai Qingyan, she saw her laugh and thought she had a negative opinion. “Don’t think about the big movies and TV shows that GT Entertainment produces. Here, the top stars are content with each other. Those resources are not enough for them, and those projects, which involve billions of dollars in investment, will not be bet on a new person. If you insist on getting a role, the first step would be playing a very small supporting role, or, in other words, only a few seconds to show up. It would be completely meaningless and a waste of time.”

“Uh…” Bai Qingyan wanted to say that Gu Yezhi already told her that he’d intended to create a movie, and let any film emperor and queen play supporting roles. She estimated that Qi Lan would be frightened to death.

“What’s more, my plan for you is not to go step by step from small supporting actors, to big supporting actors and leading actors to the Best Newcomer Award, Best Supporting Actress Award, and Best Actress Award. After the drama, as long as you are strong enough, I will directly connect you with the big role as the female lead in a drama and get the trophy of the best actress.”

Bai Qingyan was stupefied, beautiful pupils dilated in shock.

Qi Lan’s courage was big. No wonder Ji Sijie and Song Xin’s qualifications weren’t too outstanding, but they still held a pivotal position in the entertainment circle. A good judge of talent was too significant.

“Any questions?” Qi Lan leaned her head forward slightly and looked at Bai Qingyan closely.
