After dealing with the rental matters, Jiang Ling took the earliest flight back to Modu.
During the period Jiang Ling was filming, her personal studio was meticulously managed by Sister Sa.
Sister Sa had previously received a performance video sent by Jiang Ling and was deeply shocked by her suddenly supercharged acting skills.
As Jiang Ling's agent, Sister Sa knew her capabilities better than anyone.
Jiang Ling's acting was truly a scene that brought men to tears and women to silence, so awkward it could make someone want to carve out a three-bedroom apartment.
Who would have ever thought that Jiang Ling would have a day of such explosive acting talent?
Could it be that being abandoned by Shen Mingjue had caused her immense distress, leading to an accidental awakening of her acting talent?
If that were the case, it would be wonderful.
Seeing that Jiang Ling wanted to pursue a path of being a powerful actress, Sister Sa searched for a heap of scripts.
After reviewing them, Jiang Ling repeatedly shook her head.
She was currently plagued by scandals, her popularity was at an all-time low, and she had terminated her contract with her agency, completely becoming a discarded piece by capital.
The scripts sent to her were all oddities and highly unlikable characters.
There were even a few directors who had been victimized by the original owner's dreadful acting, leading to a collapse in their reputation. They heard that she was playing Tianshan Tonglao in the Dragon King's crew and specifically sent a few scripts featuring perverted old women to provoke her.
Her reputation was already notorious enough; if she were to play these bad movies and bad roles again, she would truly never be able to turn her fortunes around.
Jiang Ling was protective of her reputation. In her past life, when choosing roles, she prioritized quality over quantity.
Seeing that there were no good scripts, she decided to stay home and be a lazy fish, living off of others' means.
Bored, she browsed Douyin, watched Bilibili, and then went to Taobao to buy some of her favorite snacks. Her life was quite comfortable.
Jiang Ling genuinely desired a peaceful and tranquil life.
Alas, the tree may desire stillness, but the wind will not cease.
She hadn't done anything, yet she inexplicably trended on hot searches.
This hot search came from an unscrupulous marketing account that, in pursuit of traffic and attention, had no bottom line.
This marketing account, not knowing from where it obtained the video of Jiang Ling competing with An Qiuyan for the role of Tianshan Tonglao that day, had released the video online after some infernal editing and attaching a commentary that took things out of context.
In the narrative of this unscrupulous marketing account, the Dragon King's crew originally intended to cast An Qiuyan as Tianshan Tonglao, but Jiang Ling, using her influence, snatched the role.
Not only that, but it released the complete footage of An Qiuyan's performance while only providing a styling picture of Jiang Ling, lamenting that Jiang Ling's acting was too eye-searing to bear and that it was unwilling to poison the audience.
Even more cunningly, the styling picture was not Jiang Ling's initial appearance, but her look at eighteen or nineteen years old, which fully showcased the stunning beauty of Jiang Ling's ancient costume.
The problem was that, in the eyes of many viewers and wuxia fans, Tianshan Tonglao was an old woman.
How could she be Tianshan Tonglao when dressed so beautifully?
An Qiuyan had previously taken a knife for Shen Mingjue, and compared to Jiang Ling's fear of death, she had already gained considerable goodwill, her followers skyrocketing by hundreds of thousands overnight.
Now, entangled with Jiang Ling again, those anti-Jiang Ling black fans naturally assumed that Jiang Ling, the big-breasted, empty-headed, vicious supporting character, had bullied An Qiuyan and stolen a role that did not rightfully belong to her.
As a result, this group of fans and black fans, who were unaware of the truth and the full story, immediately exploded with rage.
And the netizens who had no objections to Jiang Ling playing Tianshan Tonglao, and were even happy to see her make a fool of herself, were also ignited with anger by this so-called insider dealing.
