In the ancient drama starring Lin Wansu, episodes were released simultaneously as they were being filmed. By the end of August, filming had concluded, and ten episodes were already available for viewing.

The drama, adapted from a popular transmigration novel, attracted a considerable audience.

Given that the female lead’s role didn’t demand much in terms of acting skills, combined with the appealing looks of the six male leads, it served as an ideal distraction for viewers.

However, as filming progressed, Lin Wansu’s shortcomings in acting became increasingly apparent.

“Sister Sang, wouldn’t it be awkward with Director Xu?” the agent assistant asked in surprise. “After all, the drama isn’t just about Lin Wansu.”

“Don’t worry, I’ve already discussed this with Director Xu quite some time ago,” Sang Yanqing waved her hand dismissively. “Lin Wansu brought her own investment into the production. He wasn’t keen on making such a film in the first place. This drama is meant to promote Lin Wansu specifically, and the other actors have long harbored resentments.”

The agent assistant nodded in understanding, “Got it, I’ll get the PR team to contact the relevant marketing accounts.”

Sang Yanqing was not one to manipulate public opinion through such means.

But if others wished to play this game, she was willing to engage.

Returning to the industry after a five-year hiatus didn’t mean she had lost her ability to influence the entertainment circle.

“Have you finished the call?” Sang Yanqing opened the car door as Si Fuqing approached. “What did Mr. Yu say? Was it something urgent?”

“It’s nothing,” Si Fuqing replied casually. “He was just concerned about our upcoming shoot in the canyon, reminding me to stay safe.”

Sang Yanqing nodded, “Even though you’re trained in self-defense, you must be careful. Excelling in this drama could make you an overnight sensation. However, being a female-centric story, it will be exhausting to film.”

“I’ve already told the boss not to worry about me,” Si Fuqing said, taking out the hidden coke with ease. “After all, I’ve faced off against polar bears before.”

Sang Yanqing was taken aback, “? ? ?”

Upon mentioning this, Yuejian indeed remembered the incident.

T18 had been tasked with taking down a criminal gang.

The criminals thought they could escape to the far north, believing the presence of polar bears and arctic falcons would deter T18 from pursuing them.

However, they hadn’t counted on T18 having their little sister, a “bug” in their team, who even got polar bears to cooperate.

“Today was quite relaxing; we can head home,” Si Fuqing said as he got into the car. “Sister Sang, let’s go. My auntie is an excellent cook. I’ll treat you to a meal at our family’s restaurant.”

Sang Yanqing instructed the driver to start the car in a daze.

Meanwhile, the studio had already coordinated with several major marketing accounts to release snippets of Lin Wansu’s acting, along with the hashtag #LinWansuActing.

Netizens were eagerly anticipating the first trailer for “Crossing the Demon Realm,” only to see #LinWansuActing rocket to the top of the trending searches, overshadowing Si Fuqing.

[Who is Lin Wansu? Another one buying their way into acting fame? Let’s see if there’s any real talent.]

Seconds later, the comment came.

[I was wrong. This was definitely bought. Everyone, please don’t watch; it’s an eyesore.]

[Apologies, but can someone sell me a pair of eyes that haven’t seen this?]

[Are you kidding? The drama turns out like this? I’m going to be sick, not watching this drama anymore.]Follow the latest novels 𝒐𝒏 n𝒐/velbin(.)com

[Some parts are actually decent, better than just staring blankly. It’s not unwatchable.]

However, this was only the first video. Soon, the marketing accounts released another segment showing Director Xu catching Si Fuqing in an acting moment for Lin Wansu, clearly recording Director Xu’s loud outbursts.  “I could grab anyone off the street, and they’d act better than you!” Without a comparison, there was no competition.

Si Fuqing continued her performance without any props, simply turning her head and glancing back, immersing the audience in the scene she portrayed.

[Wow! Sister Sang, have you considered casting Qingqing in a romance drama?

I want to see her fall in love.]

[Absolutely not! Mother forbids it!]

Lin Wansu remained at the top of the trending searches, with an increasing number of netizens baffled by how she could outrank Si Fuqing.

At this time, Lin Wansu was still in the makeup room on set.

“Susu! Something terrible has happened!” Her assistant rushed her while jogging, “You’re trending for your acting!”

“Me?” Lin Wansu was startled but then delighted. “Right, the transmigration drama I’m in just released its tenth episode yesterday. It did have a highlight. Is it about that?”

The assistant hesitated, “Yes, it’s about that drama, but, but…”

Unable to wait, Lin Wansu eagerly opened Weibo..
