The miserable White Moonlight awakens and becomes popular in the entertainment circle
Chapter 107 Big Makeup Artist
"The media just named you the top of the 'Four Little Flowers'. Lin Qianxue and the others are all vying to make movies, but you are still playing the second female lead in a TV series. Just think about it, how will the media mock you?"
"No matter how popular this drama is, the second female lead is always the second female lead. No matter how likable or outstanding her role is, can it compare to the heroine? At best, you are the best supporting actress!"
"In the final analysis, you just can't give up. You want to prove yourself through this second female role, to prove that you can even do better than the heroine they chose. Isn't that right?"
Since they met in this life, Sister Meng and Qin Xi have always spoken softly and have never been so aggressive.
But Qin Xi had to admit that what Sister Meng said was right. She just couldn't accept it! She couldn't accept that the classic among classics was once so close to her, but she didn't seize the opportunity and finally passed it by.
Therefore, Qin Xi would rather settle for the second best and choose the second female role, and also want to have her own presence in "The Story of Yan Qing".
Sister Meng said earnestly, "Although there have been some minor setbacks in the past few years, overall you have been on a very smooth path and have risen too fast. Now you have reached a height that many people would never reach in their lifetime. At times like this, choices become more important, because if you are not careful you will go downhill. Once you go down, it will be difficult to get back to your original height!"
Qin Xi pondered for a moment and felt that her decision was indeed ill-considered. Since her rebirth, she always liked to think about problems from the perspective of the future, which indeed benefited her a lot, but sometimes, one has to live in the present.
The classic status of "The Story of Yan Qing" needs time to be verified. It became more and more popular with the fermentation of the Internet in later generations. But from the current perspective, choosing the second female lead in "The Story of Yan Qing" is undoubtedly irrational.
In terms of market rating, positioning of partners, and even the quality of the next play, it is difficult for the second female lead in "The Story of Yan Qing" to bring about a qualitative leap, which cannot be compensated by an "eternal classic" a few years or even ten years later.
Qin Xi suddenly woke up and felt that she was almost blinded by one thing. She was too confident because she knew the future after her rebirth. Little did she know that too much is as bad as too little. She almost didn't listen to Sister Meng's pertinent advice.
"it is good!"
Sister Meng was still thinking hard about how to make Qin Xi give up this ridiculous idea. Suddenly she heard Qin Xi's response and was a little bit unbelievable.
"What do you say?"
"I said, I listen to you! Give up [Yan Qing Chuan]!"
Sister Meng was so overjoyed that she almost cried. This was the first time Qin Xi listened to her opinions since she signed the contract. It was normal for other artists, but it was not easy for Qin Xi.
But the facts have proved that Qin Xi's independent choices are always correct. Now that Qin Xi agreed so readily, Sister Meng is a little unsure. If [The Biography of Yan Qing] goes viral, wouldn't it be all my fault?
Qin Xi immediately understood Sister Meng's concerns and said warmly, "Sister Meng, my decision-making criteria are what is beneficial to my development. If what you said makes sense, I will naturally listen to you. This is my own decision. Even if [The Legend of Yan Qing] really becomes a big hit, it doesn't matter. It's just a second female lead. For me now, it's better than nothing!"
"But I'm afraid I'll disappoint Director Xie. I'll talk to him in person at the 'Honghu Award' ceremony in a few days..."
Speaking of the "Honghu Award", Sister Meng immediately became excited. "Not only me, but also President Song was very surprised that you were nominated for the 'Honghu Award'. Our company mainly produces costume dramas and has never been recognized by mainstream awards."
"There are so many artists coming and going, but you are the first one in the company to be nominated for a mainstream award. Not to mention our company, even those young actresses of the same period as you have not received any award nominations. Although except for what you said, they are all veteran actors and it is difficult for them to win an award, it is already amazing that you can compete on the same stage with them at such a young age..."
"Although we can't compete for the award, Mr. Song has used his personal connections to hire a celebrity makeup artist for you - Chen Qingdai. She studied Chinese painting and is very skilled in all kinds of makeup. She has done makeup for many celebrities and her makeup has been very popular at international film festivals. Her resources and connections in the fashion circle are beyond imagination."
Qin Xi was shocked, "Mr. Song was able to invite Chen Qingdai?!"
Although Qin Xi had never seen Chen Qingdai in her previous life, she was no longer in the martial arts world, but her legend was still around. Many popular stylists in later generations were students of Chen Qingdai.
Sister Meng clapped her hands and smiled, "Chen Qingdai is now semi-retired, so it's very difficult to invite her. Mr. Song just wanted to give it a try. Unexpectedly, when Chen Qingdai heard it was you, she agreed very readily, saying that she had seen your work and wanted to meet you."
Sister Meng shook her head and sighed, "I didn't expect that you are so charming now. Even the makeup masters who have not appeared in the stage for a long time can be fascinated by you and come out in person just to draw colors on your face..."
Qin Xi: ...
Sister Meng advised, "When you meet her, do something nice and praise her for her youth. This is an opportunity that many popular young actresses would love to have."
Sister Meng continued to look forward to it, "If you can get along well with her, then your future fashion resources will definitely be able to be upgraded to a higher level!"
"Why is it that our Xiaoxi has such good luck wherever he goes? Could it be that there really are such people in the world who are blessed with good fortune?!"
Qin Xi: ...
Sister Meng stabbed Qin Xi in the heart with a spinning knife, "You must strictly control your diet these two days. You can only eat one cucumber a day to make the dress look the best. Can you do it?"
Qin Xi screamed in her Taiwanese accent, "I'm already skinny enough, what else do you want from me? How annoying!"
"You have to do it even if you can't!" Looking at Qin Xi's bitter face, he comforted her with concern, "We finally made the trip, we can't go in vain, we have to leave a page in newspapers and magazines, after the ceremony, I will take you to a big meal, hot pot or barbecue, you can choose!"
Qin Xi: Oh yeah!
By the day of the ceremony, Qin Xi was so hungry that his stomach was sticking to his back, and he was only able to hold on thanks to his strong energy.
Lili looked worried, "Sister Xi, can you hold on? Don't let you faint on the red carpet when the ceremony starts tonight, or you'll be on the headlines!"
"You're such a crow, can't you hope for something good from me?"
Lili took out the insulated lunch box from her bag and asked, "Would you like to have a carrot to fill your stomach?"
It was originally cucumber, but Lili was afraid that Qin Xi would get tired of it, so she took the initiative to change it to carrot.
Qin Xi's eyes were full of stars. "I'm not a rabbit. Give me a cup of black coffee to refresh myself and dehydrate myself!"
It was naturally impossible for a big shot like Chen Qingdai to provide door-to-door service to Qin Xi, so Qin Xi and Lili rushed to Chen Qingdai's studio early in the morning.
Chen Qingdai's assistant led Qin Xi and Lili into a huge dressing room. Qin Xi and Lili were as shocked as Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, with their mouths wide open.
The room is neatly arranged with various cosmetics, makeup tools, jewelry, wigs, clothing, etc., which are dazzling.
The assistant modestly said that this was only a small part. And there was no need to worry about not being able to find it when needed, as each small category had a dedicated person to take care of it.
Qinxi & Lili: ...
A quarter of an hour later, Qin Xi finally saw Chen Qingdai in person. The moment he saw her in person, Qin Xi felt that Chen Qingdai looked a little familiar. Although she was in her 40s, she still looked like she was in her early 30s.
She is a beautiful lady with a lot of temperament. What's even more amazing is that there is almost no trace of makeup on her face, which naturally highlights her charm. This may be the highest level of makeup.
Qin Xi was immediately in awe. Her students, who were regarded as gods by many celebrities, might have only learned 50% or 60% of her skills, but they were already able to dominate the martial arts world. They were simply like a monk sweeping the floor.
Qin Xi couldn't help but look forward to today's look even more.
Chen Qingdai looked Qin Xi up and down from a professional perspective, and suddenly her eyebrows curved and she smiled knowingly.
"So you are Qin Xi..."
