Chapter 629: Preparation Stage
TCC had already started expanding its business a long time ago; the first business was an entertainment newspaper, but it had always been lukewarm.
Recently, they changed their strategy, which was to rely on large social platforms like Twitter and Weibo to have fans rank them.
However, it was still in the experimental stage, and Weibo was the first experimental field.
TCC and Weibo joined forces to create such a Chinese beauty ranking.
The beauty of 2018 had already been ranked; those who entered the top ten in China were Miss Luo Quan, Su Yu, and Seeing Wen Xia; the ranking opened on Weibo now was aimed at 2019.
When selecting the world's most beautiful at the end of the year, the results on this list would account for a considerable proportion of the votes.
Taking advantage of Miss Luo Quan being elected as the world's most beautiful again, TCC expressed congratulations, and Weibo also helped arrange a trending search.
Under the joint effect of the popularity of both sides, the Chinese celebrity beauty popularity list became popular.
The name of the list was relatively clever, called the Beauty Popularity List.
It looked like it was ranking beauty for artists, but it was also talking about popularity.
So if some first-line artists who were getting on in years didn't get a good ranking, it wouldn't offend people.
And fans ranking for their own idols was a traditional skill of Weibo; playing this set could be said to be pure and perfect; the interface was made flashy, making people feel quite influential.
In fact, it did have some influence; both domestic and foreign, this list had quite a lot of people paying attention; after all, who doesn't like handsome men and beautiful women.
As a three-time world's most beautiful winner, Miss Luo Quan naturally became the first on this Chinese list as a matter of course.
She didn't even need fans to help rank; melon-eating masses voted one vote per person according to their real thoughts, and Miss Luo Quan rushed to the first place, faster than sitting on a rocket.
At this time, no one questioned that Miss Luo Quan didn't conform to the aesthetics of Chinese people, or that she wasn't a traditional Oriental beauty.
Just this appearance had nothing to do with nationality or race; it was just good-looking, belonging to the type that makes the human body secrete dopamine (a hormone that makes people feel happy) at a glance.
Such a beauty who makes people feel refreshed becoming the first was absolutely the expectations of the public, not something that could be denied by whether it conformed to certain people's aesthetics.
Besides, Miss Luo Quan wasn't unable to show Oriental beauty.
A while ago, she had just filmed a set of Huadan photos; painting oil paint, wearing Cifengque, who wouldn't praise her as a very handsome young lady.
Especially between those gestures, the shy and charming eyes, which embodied the temperament beauty of Chinese women's reserved and weak temperament to the fullest.
In this era where traditional culture is severely impacted by Western culture, girls like Miss Luo Quan who have the temperament of ancient beauties are really not very common.
Of course, it could also be said that her acting skills are good; after all, when she livestreams usually, she can't see such temperament at all, being big and bold like a tomboy.
However, as long as she gets serious, she can give people this special feeling.
Others, even if they want to seriously create it, don't have this ability.
After becoming the world's most beautiful again this time, a group of fans ran to the comment section and righteously asked Miss Luo Quan for benefits.
Miss Luo Quan was still thinking about smiling and letting everyone praise her, blowing some rainbow farts for her.
As a result, they were all asking for benefits, which made her a bit unable to understand.
Shouldn't they send her benefits?
Miss Luo Quan posted this question to the dynamic, and immediately encountered the ruthless rebuttal of netizens:
"Knowing you like shiny jewelry, our fans raised ten thousand, and we'll get you a 300-carat diamond necklace, absolutely brilliant!
In exchange, can you come with a black silk photo?"
Ten thousand for 300 carats, this is probably not even artificial diamond; it is estimated to be that kind of cheap water diamond.
This is too childish, right?
Regarding such remarks, Miss Luo Quan refused directly without even thinking.
Of course, this is not a question of cheap or not; even if they really sent her a 300-carat real diamond, she wouldn't do such an exchange.
A woman loves wealth, but takes it in a proper way.
So although the fans' enthusiasm was quite high, Miss Luo Quan could only pour cold water on them.
After Miss Luo Quan returned to the country and played for a few days, Seeing Wen Xia, who had finished the New Year's Eve tour, also brought Junko and Yuner to find her.
The girls hadn't seen each other for a long time, had endless words to say, endless chats, and the whole house suddenly became much more lively.
Everyone in the house except Lan Xuan was now a well-known female artist in China, and their fans were basically over ten million; if they opened a livestream, the popularity would definitely explode.
"Junko, that Ye Kai didn't come to harass you again, right?"
Miss Luo Quan asked about Junko's situation, and the latter shook her head: "He didn't come again; it is said that he found another female star and was secretly photographed, but both sides refused to admit it."
"Look, this is the virtue of rich men; they are all typical playboys," Lan Xuan said with disdain.
As a manager, especially Su Yu's manager, she had seen too many similar things.
Before Su Yu became popular, she almost received calls from rich people wanting to keep her every day, which was simply annoying.
Not just rich people; in fact, this circle is this virtue.
That big pile of men and women, who doesn't know the dirty things behind their backs? It's just that no one is willing to come out and say it.
"In short, as long as he doesn't find you again; if you encounter similar situations in the future, tell me directly, and I will come forward to help you solve it," Miss Luo Quan said this not only to Junko but also to other artists in the company.
As an entertainment company full of beauties, the number of times they encounter similar situations in the future is estimated to be not small, and some might be what Junko and the others can't afford to provoke.
But it doesn't matter, as long as she, the boss, can afford to provoke them; after all, as a boss, she is originally here to do this.
Hearing Miss Luo Quan's words, the girls also showed moving colors in their eyes.
A boss who doesn't engage in unspoken rules at all and also thinks about and maintains the artists everywhere is simply a rare animal in this circle.
If Miss Luo Quan knew what they were thinking in their hearts, she would guarantee one brain-collapse per person.
Want to be subjected to her unspoken rules? Where did such a good thing come from.
"By the way, do you two have a schedule in these one or two months?" Miss Luo Quan looked at Seeing Wen Xia and Su Yu and asked.
"I took a movie and a TV series, both are big-name directors, so it's not easy to squeeze time, so the time is not particularly abundant," Su Yu shook her head, "But if it's just a guest appearance, I can still squeeze out some time."
"That's fine, it's just letting you guest appear, it won't take too much time," Miss Luo Quan made an OK gesture and looked at Seeing Wen Xia again.
"I'm too free, there is plenty of time," Seeing Wen Xia spread her hands, indicating there was no problem at all.
"Why, have you become an outdated old bacon so soon?" Miss Luo Quan said with a mocking joke.
"You are the outdated old bacon!" Seeing Wen Xia gently twisted the soft flesh on Miss Luo Quan's waist, "It's just that the persona is transforming, losing some fans, and then those marketing accounts on the internet said I was cold and outdated.
Simply, I just rested for a period of time to see what tricks they could come up with."
Miss Luo Quan understood Seeing Wen Xia's meaning: "So you are planning to develop silently and then amaze everyone."
"No, just simply lazy disease committed, want to rest," Seeing Wen Xia said, looking at Miss Luo Quan with a smile, "Why, only allowed you to fish all day, not allowed me to give myself a holiday?"
Miss Luo Quan said a bit angrily: "Who is fishing? You don't know how diligent I have been in the second half of the year; works haven't been broken, okay?"
She was indeed lazy before, but in these few months, whoever says she is lazy again would be too heartless; movies and albums, which celebrity is as productive as her?
"Okay, I know you have changed your nature," Seeing Wen Xia smiled helplessly, "But sometimes I envy you; even if you livestream, you can maintain popularity; I run around performing and attending variety shows every day, and I still lose fans."
Miss Luo Quan smiled and said: "Normal, after all, you haven't completed the transformation from idol to actor yet; without works, fans can only like your persona.
Now the country has issued a ban, not allowing idol selection anymore; this idol mentor persona of yours also has no market, and losing fans is a very reasonable thing.
As long as there are new works that can be taken out later, your life will climb again, and even reach a higher level."
Seeing Wen Xia laughed: "How can it be so easy? Idol is a job that eats youth..."
"I have an opportunity here; my new movie is about to start filming soon, and the heroine inside is very suitable for you; do you want to come?" Miss Luo Quan said with a bad smile.
Seeing Wen Xia looked at her friend curiously: "What kind of movie, and what role do I play?"
"You play a brothel woman, and have a very deep emotional entanglement with the male lead and the second male lead; it is very demanding of acting skills, and emotions need to be in place..."
Before Miss Luo Quan finished speaking, she was pounced on the ground by Seeing Wen Xia, both hands taking her ticklish meat.
"Good you, Luo Luo, letting me play a prostitute, right?" Seeing Wen Xia said with a fierce face, two fingers on each hand poking Miss Luo Quan's waist.
A strange electric stimulation started from the side of the waist, spread along the spine to the whole body, and then it was uncontrollable laughter.
Miss Luo Quan was moved to tears by this sudden sneak attack.
Clearly, this part of the waist had been deliberately practiced, and she often scratched it to reduce sensitivity, and there was no special feeling, so why did others still laugh when they touched it?
This question couldn't be understood, and now she didn't have the strength to understand it.
After a toss, Seeing Wen Xia got off Miss Luo Quan; the latter's face was flushed, lying on the sofa with heavy breathing, chest surging.
"You listen to me finish; this character's profession is like this, and I won't really arrange that kind of lens for you.
This movie is going to be released in the country, and the scale still needs to be grasped; you are not afraid of being banned, but I am afraid of being banned," Miss Luo Quan explained while panting.
Clearly, Seeing Wen Xia confused this character with a movie that couldn't be released in the country.
What was that movie called? After the movie was released abroad, the heroine was banned and only unbanned in recent years; it was simply miserable.
That was what Seeing Wen Xia was worried about.
Of course, there was also the intention of borrowing the topic to play, which was the intention of wanting to tease Miss Luo Quan.
After all, it is estimated that only she in the world dares to do this, without worrying about being hit by an iron fist.
Seeing Wen Xia nodded gently: "If it's like this, then it's fine; it doesn't matter if the character persona is a prostitute, but you can't arrange any bed scenes for me."
Miss Luo Quan's eyes widened: "Are you a professional actor? Are you playing big names here with me?"
Seeing Wen Xia chuckled: "Everyone has the qualification to say this, but you don't have this qualification.
When you perform a passionate scene on the big screen for everyone, like your brother and Kalilian, sacrifice yourself for film art before talking about what is professional or not."
Once these words came out, Miss Luo Quan didn't have a sound directly.
After a while, she said: "If I don't act, I won't act; anyway, the country can't review it, and doing those things is completely blind lighting and wasting wax.
However, don't blame me for not reminding you in advance.
This movie is very demanding of the actor's lines and acting skills; the few actors currently known are either old drama bones or powerful factions.
You go to play as the heroine, and if you are covered up, you will be mocked by film fans."
Seeing Wen Xia said proudly: "Don't look down on people; you have been abroad for half a year, and you don't know how fast my acting skills have improved; I am at the forefront of the school's exams."
"Academic factions are all talking on paper; you don't know if you are powerful until you reach the scene," Miss Luo Quan waved her hand, indicating she didn't believe it at all.
What level her friend was, could she not know?
It wasn't that she hadn't seen the TV series she acted in, at most it was a passing level.
Talented, but not yet excavated.
"Don't allow me to suddenly open up, right?" Seeing Wen Xia also guessed what Miss Luo Quan was thinking, and took out her phone unconvinced, showing her a recording.
This was her performance without objects during the final exam, playing a woman who was happy and sad.
From the beginning of laughing, to the later crying, one mirror to the end, and the emotional changes were quite natural, and the expressions were also very layered, belonging to quite good performance, with distinct recognition.
"Oh, not bad," after watching, Miss Luo Quan gave a positive evaluation.
It was indeed not bad, and it was from her perspective.
What perspective is she now?
Anthony Hopkins-possessed perspective!
The "not bad" from an actor of this level, placed in the eyes of ordinary people, is quite good.
It seems that Seeing Wen Xia really has talent, and she really developed it in these six months.
"Just not bad?" Seeing Wen Xia raised her eyebrows; it seemed she didn't hear the answer she wanted.
Miss Luo Quan raised her chin: "You have to look at the situation; this 'not bad' came from the mouth of an Oscar best actress; you know how high the gold content is, right?"
Seeing Wen Xia was stunned: "Haven't heard that you won the best actress?"
"There are still two months left; when the time comes, isn't it something in my bag?" Miss Luo Quan laughed, indicating that she was determined to win this best actress.
Seeing Wen Xia curled her lips: "You just stand flag; you are so confident about things that haven't arrived; it will be too face-slapping if you don't get it then."
"Not possible," Miss Luo Quan was unusually determined, and Trump came out.
Seeing Wen Xia didn't refute, mainly because there was no reason to refute, because Miss Luo Quan had such strength. ===== CHAPTER 630 =====
