Chapter 679: Global Hit

PS: The author's tenosynovitis has flared up, and my typing speed is relatively slow. Updates will be delayed for a period of time. You can refresh later or tomorrow morning.

This situation will likely continue until the end of the year. The doctor says it will take this long to recover, and updates should return to normal after the new year.

I apologize for the inconvenience caused to my readers, and I ask for your understanding.

Main text:

"Death penalty can be avoided, but living sin is hard to escape; don't think about muddling through!"

"Yes, you have to bring something out, otherwise how will we get through such long days ahead?"

"I don't care, I just want to see new things, not necessarily just songs, anything else is fine."

………………

Having been with Luo Quan for so long, the fans had long since mastered her personality of eating soft but not hard, so most of them still used a pleading tone.

Luo Quan herself did indeed eat this set, and playing like this for a month was indeed not very appropriate.

"Alright, didn't I say I would take a photo shoot for everyone before? Although quite a few have been released, there are still some left that haven't been shot. Let's make it up to everyone this time."

Luo Quan said, flipping through some photos on her phone and putting them in front of the fans to scroll through:

"These are the clothes I'm going to shoot next. The clothes are all in my room. After shooting tomorrow, I can release them for everyone to see in the evening, so please look forward to it."

"They don't seem particularly revealing."

"It's good enough to have something to look at; stop being picky."

"Haha, but if you could really do a few sexy styles, it would be quite good, and I think Luo Quan is suitable for this style."

"May I ask what style Luo Quan is not suitable for?"

…………

Sure enough, as soon as the clothes came out, someone started pushing their luck.

However, considering that *Resident Evil 2*, which has quite a few benefits, is still in theaters, and Bilibili already has videos editing the highlights, she didn't need to do anything extra.

After all, this is for the physical and mental health of the vast number of fans. Luo Quan felt she did the right thing, worthy of being called a "light of the righteous path."

If the fans knew her true inner thoughts, they would probably shout directly: Please don't worry about our lives at all; destroy us however you want!

The preview was out. This photo shoot also had one set for Chinese style and one for Western style.

The Chinese style was a long dress, white as snow, with a fairy-like aura.

The other was a princess dress covered in flowers.

The former was subtle and gentle; the latter was enthusiastic and gorgeous.

However, just looking at it, you couldn't tell how beautiful it was. People rely on clothes, but clothes also need people to wear them.

The next day, Luo Quan found her exclusive film and television studio in New York.

Many of the employees here were her old acquaintances. The posters for her previous movies were all done in cooperation with them, as well as some of her personal photo shoots.

The employees were clear about Luo Quan's habits.

She brings her own clothes, does her own makeup, and designs her own poses.

They only need to solve the lighting and then press the shutter.

There is no customer more worry-free than Luo Quan.

I remember the last time Luo Quan came here for a photo shoot, she was wearing a costume, playing a peerless opera singer who was so beautiful it made people cry.

However, because they were all foreigners, everyone didn't know what kind of styling this was at first, and the makeup was also different from the common ones, so they didn't truly "get" her beauty, just feeling it was very stunning.

But this time, it was obviously different. Luo Quan's first styling had no aesthetic threshold.

After she changed her clothes and came out, under the high-intensity lighting, she still looked so dazzling.

In her white clothes, every gesture of hers had an indescribable temperament.

It was a temperament almost never seen in the West. If it were in China, it should be described as "fairy-like." It was like being detached from the world and independent.

Luo Quan just stood there, and a group of employees felt a sense of inferiority rising from the bottom of their hearts.

Because she was too perfect; she was so perfect that just looking at her made them feel ashamed.

"What are you all stunned for? Get to work."

Fortunately, Luo Quan was still that Luo Quan. Clothes might change her temperament, but she could also easily change it back.

After speaking, Luo Quan seemed much more approachable, unlike just now, like the thousand-year-old cold ice on the top of a snowy mountain, making people afraid to approach.

But this approachability also made many employees break their composure instantly.

They actually wanted Luo Quan to remain cold, because that was the state in their minds where Luo Quan was closest to a goddess and also the most beautiful state.

Unfortunately, no matter how beautiful a goddess is, she still has a mouth.

But it was also fortunate that she had a mouth, reminding them; otherwise, they probably wouldn't be able to finish the work today.

After the first styling photo shoot was finished, the second one followed: the gorgeous flower dress.

This dress was a birthday gift exclusively customized for her by Chanel, and there was no plan to sell it on the market yet.

As a birthday gift, it could be said to be quite thoughtful.

But as a piece of clothing, it was a bit too bloated.

It was certainly very beautiful; the fabric was top-notch, and the craftsmanship was exquisite. Every flower was embroidered so vividly that if you didn't look closely, it seemed as if she was really wearing a dress made of fresh flowers.

But precisely because it was too heavy, it was only suitable for important occasions, such as award ceremonies.

Wearing this normally would be equivalent to doing weight training for yourself.

In addition, when Luo Quan wore it, she first put a layer of plastic wrap on her body.

Mainly because this dress couldn't be washed. In order to wear it as many times as possible, the best way was to isolate the body from the dress as much as possible.

Although she didn't have a sweaty constitution, once the shooting time was long, plus the dress was so heavy, sweating was inevitable.

Only plastic wrap could isolate sweat well without affecting the shooting.

However, Luo Quan completed this matter alone in the dressing room, and other employees didn't know about it.

Mainly because it was a bit too petty, and it sounded a bit funny.

But only she could come up with such an idea. If it were put on the internet, it would probably be mocked by fans and netizens.

Of course, after coming out in the dress, decorated by the gorgeous flower dress, Luo Quan once again became the most beautiful existence in the entire studio.

That graceful and luxurious styling made a group of photographers and makeup artists think of the Victorian era.

"Prosperity" is the biggest feeling this styling of Luo Quan brings to people.

A queen in full dress is nothing more than this.

After the two sets of photos were shot, the photographer wiped the sweat from his forehead quite satisfyingly.

To be honest, the pressure of being Luo Quan's photographer is very high.

As the witness and recorder of every new styling of Luo Quan, he must preserve it perfectly.

Every styling of Luo Quan is perfect, but if the final effect of the photo is not good, then it must be his responsibility.

He felt he really couldn't bear this responsibility.

So every time Luo Quan came to take photos, he wanted to push it to others, fearing what the consequences would be if he messed it up.

But every time she named him to shoot, he would bite the bullet and do it himself.

How many photographers in the world can have such an opportunity to take photos for a goddess?

Unless his brain is broken, he wouldn't give it to a peer!

So, pressure aside, the job of taking photos for Luo Quan is definitely not to be given away.

After getting the photo data, Luo Quan took it home and did some PS.

When others PS, it's usually slimming the face or whitening, but Luo Quan just adjusted some backgrounds and added some special effects.

As for herself in the photo, there was no need to make any modifications at all.

After finishing everything, Luo Quan waited until 8:00 PM and released all twenty-plus photos.

"Damn, Super Change Fairy!"

This was the first impression that rose in the fans' hearts after seeing the first styling.

In the photo, Luo Quan's cold and beautiful image was indeed like a fairy.

As for whether it was Super Change Fairy, that's a matter of opinion. There were also those who liked to make trouble calling her a Bodhisattva in the comment section.

The second styling had a greater impact abroad, after all, both types of clothing had extremely strong cultural characteristics.

In China, they were calling her a fairy, while abroad, they were calling her a princess directly. If she were older, they would probably call her a queen directly.

"Luo Bao, your styling and clothing design are really good."

In the living room, Wen Xia held one of Luo Quan's photos and praised it.

"That's right, it's like Super Change flying to the moon." Su Yu's head also nodded violently.

Luo Quan smiled proudly: "This depends on the person. After all, not everyone can have such good waist and abdominal strength as me, and be able to make such natural movements while hanging on a wire."

Wen Xia was shocked to hear this: "Are all these photos taken while you were hanging in the sky?"

"Not all of them." Luo Quan shook her head. "Only this flying one was taken while hanging, the others were all on the ground."

"But I feel like most of them are in a suspended state?" Wen Xia was a bit confused.

"Look at it this way." Luo Quan placed her phone horizontally on the coffee table. "This was the pose I was in when I took it."

"Hahahaha..."

Wen Xia was stunned for a moment, then laughed with Su Yu.

The photos looked so fairy-like; I didn't expect the filming method behind them to be like this.

Wen Xia thought about the scene of Luo Quan lying horizontally on the ground. Analyzing from this angle and distance, the photographer should have been hanging in the sky by a wire at that time.

Thinking about it this way, she laughed even more happily.

"What's so funny." Luo Quan curled her lips. "For the effect, it really needs to be shot like this. You just haven't encountered it yet."

"No, I just feel the contrast is too big." Wen Xia waved her hand, indicating she wasn't targeting her.

Su Yu also nodded: "I think this photo is incredibly fairy-like myself, but the story behind it is like this, which makes it really hard to hold back."

Luo Quan snorted softly: "Sooner or later, I'll let you lie on the ground and take a few photos too!"

After speaking, she put away her phone.

Soon, the news of Luo Quan's photo shoot hit the number one trending search.

While the netizens on Weibo were shouting about how beautiful it was, on Douyin, many people had started to imitate Luo Quan's clothes and poses, making high-imitation versions of "Super Change Flying to the Moon."

They would imitate every pose. Some people were willing to spend a lot of money to hang themselves with wires and shoot in the air.

Some people even had a sudden inspiration to shoot underwater, and the atmosphere created was no worse than Luo Quan's original version.

But except for the "Flying to the Moon" styling, the other stylings always felt like they lacked some flavor no matter what.

Probably no one thought for the time being that these photos were all taken by Luo Quan lying on the ground.

All imitators, in order to avoid creating too sharp a contrast, were very careful when shooting, trying to restore the situation when Luo Quan shot as much as possible.

Precisely because they took it too seriously, they ignored that perhaps Luo Quan used such a simple method when shooting.

Until later, after some videos parodying Luo Quan's photos came out, everyone understood what was missing.

No wonder those clothes could spread out like a flower; it turns out they were all lying on the ground and pressed out.

After knowing the truth, the fans and netizens probably felt a bit amused.

On Luo Quan's side, the promised photo book was considered a completed task, plus the characters she cosplayed at the concert, it was considered an over-fulfillment of the task.

Although there were no benefits that everyone loved to see, the quality was still high enough to have nothing to say.

If you want to see high-quality benefits, that's something you can meet but not seek.

Forced demands are definitely not okay, but with Luo Quan's personality, maybe one day when she's idle, she'll take the initiative to give everyone a swimsuit photo book.

Moreover, this is quite likely to happen.

Didn't it happen last time in Hawaii? On the last day of the vacation, she directly livestreamed the cozy time on the beach for everyone.

At that time, the phone was held above her head; it was simply infinite scenery on the dangerous peak.

It's just that Luo Quan has a high status on Bilibili. If it were another streamer, it would be a first warning, and the second would be a seal.

Of course, the probability of her having a sudden inspiration is not high at present; it needs her to be idle.

Originally, she was very idle after the movie was finished, but who let *World of Warcraft* go into public beta.

After half a month of closed beta, *World of Warcraft* received a high score of 9.9 on IGN. Except for some dungeons being too difficult, other places were almost perfect.

With the explosion of reputation and quality, plus the full-coverage publicity bombardment of Tencent, *World of Warcraft* already had more than two million pre-orders in China alone.

Looking at Tencent's intention, they intend to make *World of Warcraft* a popular game that everyone participates in, like *League of Legends*.

Judging from the current trend, the possibility is really not low.

The domestic agency is Tencent, and the foreign agency was taken by a company that had never cooperated before, the famous Microsoft.

As an internet giant that started with software, Microsoft's volume in the gaming world is also quite huge.

Especially in Europe and the US, it occupies a near-monopoly position.

If *World of Warcraft* wants to be popular abroad, choosing Microsoft as an agent is a very good choice.

In addition, Microsoft also gave her a price she couldn't refuse.

And the 5.56 million pre-orders for *World of Warcraft* abroad also proved how correct their decision was. ===== CHAPTER 680 =====
