Because he wasn't just acting, he was capturing his youth.
He wanted to preserve these peak moments, to play them back when he was old and grey, reminiscing about his lost youth.
During the filming of "Chun Yuan She Xiang Zhuan," Jiang Ling had an incredibly profound impact on him, both in her performance as Concubine Hua and her voice acting as the Empress.
Therefore, in the folder for "Chun Yuan She Xiang Zhuan," the vast majority of the preserved videos were related to Jiang Ling.
"Which segment should I choose?"
Zheng Xiaolong stared at over a dozen voice-acting videos, hesitating, unsure which one to pick.
His wife, Wang Xiaoping, said from the side, "Jiang Ling voiced the Empress, and the Empress had many memorable scenes. But what netizens talk about the most is the scene where Chun Yuan's cause of death is revealed and the Emperor and Empress break apart. The Empress's line, 'I cannot possibly do it,' along with Concubine Hua's 'Bitches are simply melodramatic,' and Zhen Huan's 'Whether one can tolerate it is the Empress's magnanimity; whether the Empress can be tolerated is my skill,' are hailed as the three golden lines of 'Chun Yuan She Xiang Zhuan.' Why not choose that segment?"
"That makes sense!" Zheng Xiaolong nodded repeatedly. "Alright, let's go with the 'I cannot possibly do it' segment."
At the same time, at Flying Star Media, in the agent's office.
Bang!
A middle-aged, pot-bellied man in his forties, dressed in a garishly pink suit, slammed his hand on the desk in anger.
"Idiot! Who else could these brainless fans provoke but Jiang Ling? Is that woman someone to be trifled with?"
This middle-aged, flamboyant man was Shi Haowen, a top agent at Flying Star Media. It was he who had made Liu Tian'er famous.
As a star agent, Shi Haowen understood the scheming and intricacies between popular stars better than anyone.
How could Jiang Ling, who had risen against all odds, being blacklisted online and suppressed by Huohua Media, only to be reborn and reclaim her throne as a top-tier celebrity, be someone to provoke lightly?
When Liu Tian'er's fans clashed head-on with Jiang Ling's fans, they were defeated within a few rounds. Shi Haowen already recognized the terrifying extent of Jiang Ling's popularity.
For Liu Tian'er to dare provoke her was undoubtedly like a mantis trying to stop a chariot – suicidal.
If it weren't for the fact that "Big Beard" couldn't produce evidence of Jiang Ling doing her own voice acting at that moment, they would have been completely overwhelmed by Jiang Ling's fans.
"Brother Wen, Jiang Ling is just like that, there's nothing to be afraid of!"
Liu Tian'er sat on the sofa, looking dismissive as she played with her phone. She said, "No one can prove now that Jiang Ling voiced her previous roles herself. As long as we exploit this weakness and attack hard, her public image will crumble. Then, who will dare praise her in the future?"
Now, everyone in the industry knew that Jiang Ling had the most immense popularity and influence. If they could suppress her momentum this time, major brands would definitely consider her popularity to be on par with Jiang Ling's and treat her with newfound respect.
Rising to fame by stepping on other celebrities was a common tactic in the entertainment industry.
Hearing Liu Tian'er's words, Shi Haowen nodded slightly.
"I also don't believe Jiang Ling could voice such a complex character as the Tianshan Tonglao without evidence, implying she's just boasting. But even so, that woman's acting skills are indeed formidable. The reason she has attracted so many fans is her sheer talent. You really should learn from her. Go back and practice your lines, don't let people laugh at you anymore."
Hearing this, although Liu Tian'er was somewhat unconvinced, she still said, "Alright, I will definitely practice my lines well!"
