Chapter 300
Even bad publicity was publicity . Some people were famous for negative news . The situation was worse than they had expected though .
"Shao, calm down . We can gradually develop your career at home . There’s no negative news about you in China . See it as a new chance . We can start over with the brands we have cooperated with . "
Shao looked up with a blank expression in his eyes . "Start over? What will others think of me? And what about the timing? How old am I?"
"26 . You are still young . "
"Yes, I’ll turn 26 this year . Look at my face . Do you remember what my tutor told me when we met for the first time?"
His agent got lost in thought . "Considering the extreme fineness and smoothness of Asian characteristics, you are different from other models . "
"A model like me should become popular as early as possible and then turn to another industry when they earn enough capital . In other words, my career won’t last as long as other people’s . "
He picked up a mirror from the table nervously and pointed to the corner of his eye . "Look here, here and here . These are tiny wrinkles . My face will start looking terrible as time goes by . "
His agent shivered . It was difficult for him to imagine a beautiful face gradually destroyed by time . Unlike people who became more attractive as they grew older, Shao wouldn't get more graceful or elegant in time .
"I have to return to Japan . "
"For what? We just got here from Japan . We have no business there . "
"To have a face-lift at the best hospital . I’ll never give up . "
His agent looked at him as if he was crazy . The determined expression in Shao's eyes told him that he was just informing him of his decision though, not discussing it with him .
That crazy man had nothing to do with Qin Guan . He and Cong Nianwei were sitting on the couch, opening his suitcase .
Under his clothes and sundries, there were small, delicately packed boxes .
"These are for our parents and these are for you . Open them . Do you like them?"
"Of course!" Cong Nianwei took different dolls out of the packages . The first one had a ponytail and a backpack .
It had been customized at a famous handmade doll store in Tokyo . Qin Guan had placed the order as soon as he’d arrived in Tokyo . He took out another one . It was a big boy in a sweater and jeans . The two of them were holding hands .
Qin Guan whispered to her proudly, "We can order a set of dolls in wedding attire when we get married . And when we have a baby, we can order a family of three . . . "
A chilling wind was blowing against the withered leaves on the branches outside the window . There were seeds sprouting under the thick grass . Winter would pass, and beautiful spring would arrive .
Director Zhang Jizhong’s new show had started filming according to schedule . Qin Guan had checked in with the crew . That would be his final job before leaving, so it was very important for both sides .
They had both thrown the helve after the hatchet . Convinced by Qin Guan, the production had given him the leading role . Qin Guan, on the other hand, had denied all other work and focused all his attention on that job .
Unlike other randomly-adapted versions, "Demi-Gods and Demi-Demons" was basically a revival of the original work .
Director Zhang was bravely using green hands . Liu Yifei, who was a nobody at the time, had impressed Director Zhang and gotten the role of Wang Yuyan [1] .
Nearly all the roles had been cast, leaving only place for Xuzhu [2] .
It was a full-scale show with several directors . When they met, Director Yu Min asked Zhang a question .
"Most of the characters have been cast, except Xuzhu . I think young Gao Hu would be a good choice . He fits Xuzhu’s image and as a professional actor, he will give us a good performance . "
Director Zhang shook his head at him . "I have analysed the original character in the book, as well as the one in the adapted script, and I have some questions about Gao Hu’s appearance . "
"What questions?"
"One, he is the illegitimate child of an eminent monk and an evil woman . He must be good-looking . The ugly monk in the book doesn’t make any sense . His father is the host of the Shaolin Temple, so he should be a handsome man . He must have only violated his religious principles for a beautiful woman . "
"Two, the Xiaoyao School set strict standards for the looks of its apprentices . Why would they accept Xuzhu? For his stupidity?"
"Three, Princess Xixia, who has everything she wants, picks him as a husband among powerful and handsome candidates . I think he must be an attractive man . "
It sounded reasonable . Surely, that didn’t mean Xuzhu was an Adonis though?
Actually, his argument was fake . He would use any means to increase audience rates .
Suddenly, the minibus carrying supplies for the crew arrived . On the back seat was Huang Bo, who was in a really good mood . He didn’t have anything better to do, so he had gone over as soon as he’d gotten the chance . While Sister Xue and the assistant struck up a conversation, Qin Guan went to greet the director and the rest of the crew .
"Go to the dressing room first and cut your hair off . "
"Okay . " Qin Guan didn't say anything . It was just hair after all . He could compensate for losing the role of Bianji, who had also been a monk .
The other directors, who had never met Qin Guan, were shocked .
"Is this okay? He’s more handsome than Lin Zhiying, the actor from Taiwan!"
"Facts speak louder than words . He’s not the only popular star in my TV series . Let’s just wait for him . "
