Chapter 1196

~14 min read 2,633 words

"Is it finally coming?"

"Waited so long, finally waited until today!"

"It has been half a year since the release of Miss Luo Quan's last album 'Women's Decathlon'. It is the longest interval since her debut. Please be informed."

"My god, has it really been so long since a new album? I didn't even notice before."

"Luobao, you are guilty!"

"What language is the album this time? I kind of want to hear Japanese songs."

"Forgot? Last time Luobao said, three songs each in Chinese, English, and Japanese, and finally one piece of music, making up ten songs."

"Three-language party is ecstatic; I just like albums with a bit of every language."

"Usually, releasing this kind of teaser means that more than half of the songs in the album are already produced. So Luobao, when do you plan to release the lead single?"

"It's already this time, don't hide it anymore, hurry up, hurry up!"

………………

Facing the urging of the fans, Miss Luo Quan showed an apologetic smile: "Sumimasen, family members. The title of my live stream room is a teaser for the teaser. It teased the teaser content of the new album I will release tonight, so everyone who wants to hear new songs will have to wait a few more days."

The fans were instantly broken:

"Are you playing nesting dolls with me? What is a teaser for a teaser?"

"I'm dizzy. You are worthy of being you, Luobao. Are you this good at creating show effects?"

"Kuso, you actually want us to wait a few more days!"

"Doesn't matter. Waited for more than half a year, one or two days doesn't make a difference."

"Indeed, the most important thing is being able to watch Luobao's live stream every day again. This is what I want most."

…………

Seeing that the fans were so reasonable this time, Miss Luo Quan was also a bit surprised.

Could it be that after she rested, the days without her made the fans feel dull, so they were so tolerant of her after she came back?

If so, couldn't she PUA fans with this in the future?

Imagining this scene, Miss Luo Quan smiled and shook her head, dispelling this somewhat evil thought.

"Why is Luobao smiling so cunningly? Like a fox spirit."

"She must be thinking of some dark things in her heart. What a bad woman!"

"One thing to say, Luobao's image has the potential to play a fox spirit. These peach-blossom eyes are really too charming."

"But it feels like Luobao rarely throws charming glances."

"Do you think Luobao is the same type as those coquettish bitches outside? How could she throw charming glances at everyone."

"Indeed, other women's sexiness is all in their chests; Luobao's sexiness is all in her talent."

"But, Luobao's figure is really good."

"Enough, being able to say such things proves you are already very perverted."

………………

The fans in the live stream room were still as lecherous as ever. Because she live-streamed on both sides, she seemed to have taught the fans on the Universe side bad habits recently.

In the past, when the Universe side saw her, they would respectfully call her the Holy Mother and their words were cautious and polite. That way of getting along was quite comfortable.

As a result, now they have all become perverts, and the things they say often hover on the edge of being banned.

It can only be said that she really shouldn't have let the fans in the Universe see her live stream room for the sake of saving trouble, and thus see the barrage in the live stream room.

The original dignified Holy Mother image collapsed not long after. Thinking about it now, it's a pity.

Miss Luo Quan took a deep breath and looked at the camera: "In short, don't worry about the new songs. I didn't reveal the specific time before, saying it was sometime in the second half of the year.

But now that I'm back from my rest, the release of the new songs is a matter of these few days. As for the album style, it will seem a bit crazy, not the kind of straightforward love songs about 'I love you, do you love me'."

Hearing this, the fans immediately followed up:

"If you love me, I definitely love you."

"Even if you don't love me, I love you."

"I love you, but unfortunately you don't love me."

"Are you all starting to create show effects one by one?"

"I really want to be Luobao's dog, but unfortunately she seems to like cats more. It's a pity I'm neither a dog nor a cat, just a mouse that no one wants."

"Speaking of which, it seems like I haven't seen Dahei and Xiaoyu for a long time. I don't know if they've gotten fat from staying at home all day."

………………

As if hearing the fans' call for them, the two treasures, one darted onto the table, and the other stood up on its hind legs, placing its paws next to the keyboard.

"What are you doing? You want to get on the table too?" Miss Luo Quan glanced at Dahei. "This desktop isn't enough for you to toss around, hurry up and take your paws down."

Dahei looked longingly at Xiaoyu huddled by the computer, its mood not very beautiful.

If it had known, it wouldn't have turned into a Husky; its body is too big, and nothing is convenient.

If it had turned into a Pekingese or a Teacup Dog, wouldn't it be able to get on the table whenever it wanted?

It's a pity there is no regret medicine for this kind of thing. No matter how much Dahei wants to change its image, Miss Luo Quan definitely wouldn't agree.

By comparison, the sunflower potted plant transformed from Saint Joan of Arc's armor next to it is much happier. It was originally a character that didn't like to move, and after turning into a potted plant, it is placed on the table every day.

As long as the owner Miss Luo Quan is working at home, it is the one closest to the owner.

The fans definitely wouldn't have thought that these treasures would compete for favor, but after seeing Dahei's silly look, they all laughed uncontrollably.

Although Xiaoyu is cooler, its personality is really too arrogant. Usually, apart from Miss Luo Quan, it doesn't pay attention to anyone, and it always looks like it hasn't slept enough in front of the camera.

By comparison, the livelier Dahei is more liked by everyone.

Especially since this Husky doesn't tear down the house, and every time it's in the room, it's as well-behaved as a kindergarten baby.

It's a pity that after Dahei puts its paws down, it can't see the netizens' praise for it; otherwise, it could immediately show everyone what the gold content of a Husky is.

"Speaking of which, does Luobao have any plans to star in a movie recently? More than half of this year has passed. There are quite a few movies filmed, but it seems there is only one movie starring you, and it's a one-man show, nothing to watch."

"The new album hasn't even been released, and you're already thinking about the new movie? You are really greedy."

"Isn't this what Luobao said herself, that she's finished resting? After resting, shouldn't she work hard?"

"Working hard doesn't mean risking your life. Besides, Luobao's laziness is famous."

"I'm actually more concerned about next year's swimsuit photo album. Movies, albums, etc., don't matter."

"This brother is a typical person who has detached from low-level interests. We should strongly support him!"

"This abacus is really loud."

………………

"As for the new movie, I really don't have any plans." Miss Luo Quan thought for a while and finally shook her head: "I've already won two Oscar Best Actress awards. If I want to win again, I definitely have to be much better than the previous two to have a chance.

So I've been waiting for inspiration to come up with something big."

The fans were quite satisfied with this answer:

"Okay, knowing that you are conceiving is enough. No need to rush; slow work produces fine products."

"I'm at ease with Luobao's movies, but when will your Resident Evil 3 be released? The Walking Dead Season 2 is already finished, but your Resident Evil 3 still has no movement."

"Old Resident Evil fans say I don't even remember this movie anymore."

"Such a good subject matter, actually letting others film it. If you filmed a dozen or so every year like Marvel, wouldn't you make a fortune?"

"It's not as easy as you say, but this IP does need new works."

"I'm more concerned about Harry Potter. They say it's in the same universe as Under One Person, Western modern magic. The subject matter sounds very interesting."

"It's a pity they've always said they would film it, but there's no movement."

"Luobao has dug too many holes; I don't know when they can be filled."

………………

As the fans said, Miss Luo Quan has dug many holes now, and the layout is too big.

After all, she is only one person. Some directors only film one or two movies a year, while she has four or five IPs alone. The fans wish she would release a new movie every year.

With no time to spare, even Miss Luo Quan, who wants to keep everything in her hands, has to distribute some of these IPs to other directors to film.

For example, "Harry Potter", she originally planned to go to the UK to handle it herself.

But the movie planned for the beginning of the year was delayed again and again for various reasons.

Seeing that dragging it on like this wasn't a solution, Miss Luo Quan found a well-known British director and let him be responsible for filming the first part of "Harry Potter".

As for the actors, they had already been decided long ago, played by those national treasure-level old actors in the UK.

It's just that Miss Luo Quan didn't tell the fans about these things, just to give everyone a surprise.

As for "Resident Evil", it's not that she doesn't want to film it, it's mainly that this environment really can't be filmed recently.

Not only "Resident Evil 3", but "The Walking Dead 3" has also stopped filming.

The specific reason had already been discussed in the live stream before, which was the big strike by screenwriters for a raise.

Seeing that there was profit to be made, the actors also followed suit and went on strike, preparing to take advantage of this east wind to fight for more benefits for themselves.

Before this, the screenwriter strike couldn't cause any impact on her crew. After all, she is the screenwriter and doesn't belong to the American union.

But now that the actors are on strike, the entire crew has completely crashed.

Currently, investor representatives are renegotiating salary prices with union representatives, but progress is slow.

To put it more bluntly, there is no progress at all.

Investors actually don't want to raise a single penny.

If we raise it for you this time, do we need to raise it for strikes in other film production industries? How much? How long can one raise last?

These are all unknowns, and once one happens, others will definitely follow.

If that really happens, the production cost of the movie will definitely increase sharply.

For capital, increasing costs without increasing profits is equivalent to cutting their flesh with a knife.

This kind of thing is something they could never agree to no matter what.

Therefore, the investor representatives' attitude is very firm, which is to raise the salary by at most a few dozen dollars. As for any profit sharing, don't even think about it.

The contradictions between the two sides are irreconcilable, and neither is willing to step back, so the negotiations have reached a stalemate.

The current situation is that one side wants money, and the other side won't give it, stuck here.

And the union's influence is still quite large. Once they speak, all actors and screenwriters in the United States go on strike. Anyone who dares to film is an enemy of their peers. The consequence of defying the world is that they can't survive in Hollywood.

Currently, no one dares to be stubborn and go against the union, so the entire American film and television industry has fallen into stagnation.

Lyon originally had an Oscar-chasing movie, which was also affected by the big strike. It was called off before it even started filming, and there is still no specific explanation.

As for when this strike will last, no one knows.

The attitudes of the union and investors are quite firm, feeling that the other side will definitely not be able to hold on first and then compromise with themselves, so they don't seem very anxious.

However, it is said that the investors are more calm, and even began to inquire about the feasibility of using AI scripts, that is, using artificial intelligence to construct scripts, directly saving the role of screenwriters.

If it can really be done, there will be no need to discuss the issue of wages in the future. After all, AI screenwriters don't need money.

But the imagination is beautiful, and it's another matter to implement it in reality.

Intelligent AI can answer some simple questions now, or be an encyclopedia, but if it wants to be a screenwriter, it is estimated that it will have to develop for a few more years.

However, technology is advancing rapidly now. A few years ago, when AI first started, it was a pile of garbled characters when facing questions, but now it can answer fluently. Such progress is not fast.

Who knows, in another two years, will it really be able to create an intelligent AI that can pass the Turing test and communicate normally with humans?

By that time, a new industrial revolution might arrive, and human technology might usher in a new explosion.

As for now, everyone is still anxious for those few pieces of broken silver.

Movies in the United States can't be done for the time being, but the zombie universe isn't just about filming "Resident Evil".

If the fans really want to watch, she can also film a few zombie movies set in other countries.

This subject matter definitely can't be filmed domestically, but South Korea and Japan don't have such restrictions. "Train to Busan" and "I Am a Hero" are both quite good. You can consider which one to film first.

"By the way, Luobao, do you know Xiang Qing?"

Just as she was in a trance, a paid barrage suddenly appeared at the top of the live stream room.

"Who is Xiang Qing?" Miss Luo Quan asked with a puzzled expression.

But before she could figure it out, the reaction of the barrage became very intense:

"Don't come here to divert traffic; we don't care about Xiang Qing."

"I understand the truth, but who exactly is this Xiang Qing?"

"A newly debuted singer-songwriter. Her debut album sold two million copies in one week, and the sales have been rising against the trend. The momentum is very fierce."

"I went to search, and it seems she is indeed a newcomer with great potential, hailed as Miss Luo Quan's challenger."

"My god, is she that fierce?"

"Feels a bit like she's here to touch porcelain with Miss Luo Quan."

"Not really, I've heard Xiang Qing's songs, she has some substance."

"I'll go listen too."

………………

Looking at the fans' discussion, Miss Luo Quan also developed a bit of interest in this Xiang Qing.
