After I died, they cried in the live studio

Chapter 141 Return to the Entertainment Circle

Sang Jiuyue stood in front of the painting, staring at it for a long time, deeply attracted by the painter's exquisite brushstrokes and rich imagination. She seemed to be able to feel the breath of the forest in the painting, hear the whispers of the trees and the singing of the birds. "This painting is so contagious, it feels like it has life, and every detail seems to be telling a story." She said to Saixi, her eyes full of appreciation and admiration.

Ceci nodded, but her eyes were attracted by a technological exhibit not far away. It was a sphere suspended in the air, about half a meter in diameter, with a strange light flashing on its surface, constantly changing its shape and color. There was no support around the sphere, just floating quietly in the air, as if defying the law of gravity. Ceci walked over quickly and curiously got closer to observe this magical device.

The tour guide next to him noticed his interest and came forward to introduce enthusiastically: "This is a work of art created using the latest magnetic levitation technology and light projection technology. It is equipped with advanced sensors that can sense the surrounding temperature, humidity, light intensity and the audience's emotional changes in real time. By processing this data through complex algorithms and combining it with light projection technology, it can present different forms and colors. For example, when the surrounding temperature rises, its color will gradually turn red; when the audience is emotionally excited, it will quickly change shape, becoming more complex and dynamic."

As Ceci listened to the explanation, he could not help but admire the magical power of technology. He stretched out his hand and tried to touch the suspended sphere, but at the moment he was about to touch it, he retracted it, fearing that he would destroy this wonderful sight. "It's amazing. I didn't expect that technology and art could be combined so perfectly." He said with emotion.

Sang Jiuyue was also attracted to the sphere. She walked around the sphere and observed it carefully, full of curiosity about this work that combines technology and art. "It's just like a living spirit, changing with the surrounding environment and people's emotions. It would be very interesting if this kind of interactivity could be applied to illustration creation," she said while thinking.

The two continued to stroll in the exhibition hall, admiring one wonderful exhibit after another. They saw exquisite sculptures made with 3D printing technology, the details of which were lifelike and every texture was clearly visible; they also saw an immersive art experience space created with virtual reality technology, where the audience put on special glasses and could interact with the works as if they were in a dreamlike art world.

As they walked, they came to a relatively quiet corner, where a group of special exhibits were placed. This group of exhibits consisted of several huge screens, which played some strange pictures: sometimes some blurred faces appeared, and sometimes they turned into some abstract lines and patterns. Sang Jiuyue and Saixi walked closer and found a small logo under the screen, which read "Artificial Intelligence Art Creation".

"Can artificial intelligence create art?" Sang Jiuyue said in surprise. She had always thought that artistic creation was a field unique to humans, full of emotions and inspiration, and she had never expected that artificial intelligence could also be involved in it.

Ceci was not surprised by this. He explained: "Artificial intelligence technology is developing very rapidly and has been applied in many fields. In terms of artistic creation, artificial intelligence can learn from a large number of works of art, analyze the style, color, composition and other elements, and then create according to the set rules and algorithms. Although its creative process is different from that of humans, it can also produce some unique works of art."

While they were discussing, a staff member came over and introduced the exhibits to them in detail. It turned out that the screens were showing works created by artificial intelligence through deep learning algorithms. This artificial intelligence system was fed with tens of thousands of paintings of different styles. After a long period of learning and training, it has been able to imitate various artistic styles to create works. Not only that, it can also adjust and optimize the works based on the real-time feedback from the audience.

The staff member pointed to one of the screens and said, "For example, now you can use this tablet to input your feelings and suggestions about this work. The artificial intelligence will modify the work based on your feedback within a few seconds." As he said that, he handed Sang Jiuyue a tablet.

Sang Jiuyue took the tablet and looked at the somewhat abstract picture on the screen. After thinking for a moment, she typed in the suggestion "I hope the picture will be warmer and the colors will be softer." A few seconds later, the picture on the screen began to change. The originally cold-toned picture gradually became warmer, and the colors became softer and more coordinated. Sang Jiuyue and Saixi were both stunned by this magical scene.

"It's incredible. It's like there is an invisible artist creating based on our ideas," Sang Jiuyue exclaimed.

Ceci fell into deeper thinking: "This is indeed amazing, but it also makes me wonder what the development of artificial intelligence means for artistic creation? Will it replace human artists?"

The staff member smiled and replied: "At present, artificial intelligence cannot completely replace human artists. Although it can quickly generate works and can be adjusted according to needs, it lacks the emotions, creativity and deep understanding of life that are unique to humans. Art is not only about skills and forms, but also the expression of human emotions and thoughts. Artificial intelligence can be used as a tool to help artists expand their creative ideas and explore new art forms, but it can never replace the core position of humans in artistic creation."

After listening to the staff's words, Sang Jiuyue and Saixi were thoughtful. They continued to appreciate this group of works created by artificial intelligence. Although these works looked a little strange, they also made them feel the unique charm of the collision of technology and art.

After visiting this group of exhibits, Sang Jiuyue and Saixi continued to explore the exhibition hall. They saw many amazing works, some of which combined traditional art forms with modern scientific and technological means, and some of which used new materials and technologies to create new art forms. These works opened their eyes and made them full of expectations for the future of art and technology.

Unconsciously, the exhibition was drawing to a close. Sang Jiuyue and Saixi walked out of the exhibition hall with a lot of harvest and emotion. At this time, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on them, coating their figures with a layer of golden light.

"Today's exhibition really benefited me a lot. Not only did I see many excellent works of art, but I also felt the powerful force of science and technology," said Sang Jiuyue.

Ceci nodded: "Yes, this exhibition made me realize that technology and art are not independent of each other. They can be integrated and promote each other. In the future, we may be able to see more wonderful works of art and technology."

The two of them walked slowly on their way home, recalling the wonderful moments in the exhibition. The lights of the city gradually lit up, decorating the streets at night with extraordinary beauty. They knew that today's wonderful journey would become an unforgettable experience in their memory and would have a profound impact on their future work and life.

Sang Jiuyue dragged her suitcase and hurried out of the airport. In the bustling crowd, the sound of the suitcase wheels rubbing against the ground was drowned out by the noisy voices and broadcasts around her. She raised her hand to stop a taxi, sat in the back seat, leaned back, closed her eyes, and couldn't help but recall the art exhibition she had seen with Sai Xi not long ago. Those wonderful technological exhibits and imaginative works of art seemed to still flash before her eyes, but now she had to return to reality and face the complex and challenging world of the entertainment industry.

The taxi shuttled through the city streets, and the tall buildings quickly retreated like silent guards. Sang Jiuyue looked out the window, with a hint of nervousness and expectation in his eyes. The car finally stopped in front of a modern office building, which was the location of Qi's company and the place where Sang Jiuyue's dream would set sail again.

She took a deep breath and walked into the building with her suitcase. The lobby was bustling with people, busy figures and the ringing of phones filled the entire space with a tense working atmosphere. Sang Jiuyue walked to the elevator and pressed the button for the floor where Mr. Qi's office was located. As the elevator slowly rose, her heartbeat became faster and faster.

When the elevator door opened, Sang Jiuyue saw the magnificent reception desk of General Manager Qi's company. The receptionist politely asked her why she came with a smile, and when she learned that she was looking for General Manager Qi, she immediately called General Manager Qi to inform him. After a while, Sang Jiuyue was led into General Manager Qi's office.

President Qi was sitting behind a spacious and bright desk, concentrating on the documents in her hands. She was wearing a well-cut business suit, with neat short hair and sharp and shrewd eyes. She exuded an aura that could not be ignored. When she heard Sang Jiyue coming in, she raised her head, her mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile: "Jiyue, you are finally back, come and sit down."

Sang Jiuyue pulled a chair over and sat down, putting the suitcase aside. Before he could even catch his breath, he couldn't wait to say, "Boss Qi, I came back this time to tell you that I plan to return to the entertainment industry." Upon hearing this, Boss Qi put down the documents in his hand, leaned back in his chair, stared at Sang Jiuyue with a sharp gaze, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a serious look: "You have to think it over, now is not a good time."

Sang Jiuyue frowned, her eyes full of doubt and puzzlement: "Why? I have been away from the entertainment industry for these years, and I have been working hard to calm myself down and learn all kinds of new knowledge and skills. I feel that I am ready now, and it is a good time to start again." President Qi sighed softly, stood up, walked to the window, looked at the bustling city scenery outside the window, and said slowly: "You know Sang Shuwan, right? She is now the hottest star in the entertainment industry, and her popularity is at its peak. If you come back, the unpleasant things between you two in the past will definitely be dug up by the media and fans and hyped up. By then, the pressure of public opinion will not be something you can bear."

When Sang Jiuyue heard Sang Shuwan's name, her face changed slightly, and a trace of unwillingness and anger flashed in her eyes: "I'm not afraid of her! In the past, I didn't want to bother with her and gave in to her. But now it's different. I have enough strength. Am I still afraid that she will do something behind my back?" President Qi turned around and looked at Sang Jiuyue, with both understanding and worry in his eyes: "You are too naive, Xiao Jiuyue. The entertainment industry is not as simple as you think. The water here is too deep. There is a strong team behind Sang Shuwan. They are good at using various means to hype topics and suppress competitors. You just came back and your foundation is unstable. If they catch you and launch a public opinion attack, you are likely to fall into an irretrievable situation."

Sang Jiuyue was silent. She knew in her heart that what Mr. Qi said was true. Thinking back to the conflicts between her and Sang Shuwan in the past, and the exaggerated news reported by the media, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart. But the dream of returning to the entertainment industry was like a burning flame, burning more and more in her heart, making her unable to give up easily.

After a while, Sang Jiuyue raised her head and looked at Mr. Qi with a firm look: "Mr. Qi, I understand your concerns, and I know that the road ahead is full of thorns and challenges. But I really don't want to give up. This has always been my dream. I believe that as long as we work together, we will be able to find a way to deal with it. Please help me." Mr. Qi looked at Sang Jiuyue's firm eyes, and her heart was moved. She walked back to her desk, sat down, tapped the table lightly with her fingers, and said after thinking for a moment: "There is a way, but we need to plan well and take it step by step. First of all, we must first understand the routines and methods of Sang Shuwan's team, and find their weaknesses and flaws. Only by knowing ourselves and the enemy can we be invincible in this contest."

Sang Jiuyue nodded and listened carefully to what Mr. Qi said. Mr. Qi continued, "During this period, don't rush to make a comeback and don't reveal your intentions. I will arrange for you to participate in some behind-the-scenes work, such as the planning and production of film and television projects. You can use this opportunity to get in touch with more people in the industry and accumulate connections and resources. At the same time, you must continue to improve your professional ability and make yourself stronger."

After listening to Mr. Qi's plan, Sang Jiuyue felt a glimmer of hope in her heart: "Mr. Qi, you are right. I will work hard and will not let you down." Mr. Qi smiled and said, "I believe you. By the way, I have several film and television projects on hand recently. One of them is a suspenseful online drama. The script is very good and the production team is also very reliable. I plan to let you participate in the preliminary planning of this project. You can first familiarize yourself with the process, communicate with the screenwriter, director and others, and put forward your ideas and suggestions."

Sang Jiuyue said excitedly, "That's great, President Qi. I will definitely do my best." President Qi continued, "In this process, you must keep a low profile and not attract too much attention. Especially Sang Shuwan, you must not let them notice your movements. We must accumulate strength in secret, wait for the best opportunity, and then strike in one fell swoop to impress everyone."

Sang Jiuyue nodded heavily: "I understand, Mr. Qi. I will be careful." Mr. Qi looked at the time and said: "It's getting late today, you should go back and rest first. I will send you the relevant information of the project tomorrow, you can study it carefully. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me."

Sang Jiuyue stood up and said gratefully: "Okay, Mr. Qi. Thank you, I'll go first." Mr. Qi smiled and nodded: "Go, be careful on the road."

Sang Jiuyue walked out of Mr. Qi's office with her suitcase. In the elevator, she looked at her slightly tired but motivated face in the mirror and vowed in her heart: "Sang Shuwan, just wait. One day, I will return to the top of the entertainment industry and let you know how powerful I am."

After returning home, Sang Jiuyue simply packed her luggage, sat on the sofa, turned on her computer, and began to check the film and television project information that Mr. Qi had sent her. The story of this suspenseful web drama is set in a mysterious town and revolves around a series of bizarre cases. The plot is compact, full of suspense and reversals, and Sang Jiuyue became more and more fascinated as she watched.

As she watched the show, she wrote down her thoughts and suggestions in her notebook. She felt that the story could be more enriched in terms of characterization and emotional lines, so that the audience could resonate better. At the same time, she also had her own imagination and ideas about some of the scenes and pictures in the play, and she hoped to discuss them with the screenwriter and director and incorporate these ideas into the script.

Before she knew it, it was already late at night. Sang Jiuyue stretched and looked at the time, only to find that she had been reading materials for several hours. She stood up, walked to the window, opened the curtains, and looked at the brightly lit city night scene outside the window. A breeze blew and gently brushed her cheek, making her feel a little cool.

She knew that from this moment on, she had embarked on a difficult journey to return to the entertainment industry. The road ahead was full of unknowns and challenges, but she was not afraid. She believed that as long as she worked hard and persevered, she would be able to realize her dream. In this prosperous and complex entertainment industry, she wanted to be like a butterfly emerging from a cocoon, blooming with her own light.

Early the next morning, Sang Jiuyue came to the film and television project studio arranged by General Manager Qi. The studio was busy with staff coming and going, discussing various work matters. Sang Jiuyue found the screenwriter and director in charge of the project and had their first meeting and communication with them. The screenwriter is a young and talented guy named Li Ming. He is full of enthusiasm and confidence in his work. He showed great interest in some of the ideas and suggestions put forward by Sang Jiuyue and recorded them carefully. The director is an experienced industry insider named Wang Qiang. He has a unique artistic style and keen insight. He welcomes Sang Jiuyue's joining and hopes that she can bring some new ideas and inspiration to the project.

In the following days, Sang Jiuyue devoted herself to the planning of this film and television project. She discussed the script repeatedly with the screenwriter and director, and carefully considered and polished every detail. She also participated in the casting and scene design, and put forward many constructive opinions and suggestions.

In this process, Sang Jiuyue met many new friends in the industry. They came from different fields and had different professional backgrounds and experiences. Everyone communicated and cooperated with each other and learned from each other, which benefited Sang Jiuyue a lot. She not only learned a lot of knowledge and skills about film and television production, but also expanded her personal network resources, laying a solid foundation for her future development.

However, just when Sang Jiuyue thought everything was going in a good direction, an unexpected news broke her peace. One day, she saw a report about Sang Shuwan on the Internet, saying that Sang Shuwan was about to star in a big-budget movie, the director of which was an internationally renowned director, and the investment scale of the movie was very large, which was expected to cause a sensation worldwide.

After seeing the news, Sang Jiuyue felt a huge pressure in her heart. She knew that Sang Shuwan's performance would undoubtedly consolidate her position in the entertainment industry and make her return to the entertainment industry more difficult. But she was not frightened by the news, but strengthened her determination. She told herself that she must work harder and not be left too far behind by Sang Shuwan.

As a result, Sang Jiuyue worked even harder, coming to the studio early every day and leaving late at night. She continued to learn and improve herself, striving to become better. At the same time, she also kept an eye on Sang Shuwan's dynamics, analyzing her every move and strategy, trying to find her weaknesses and flaws.

In this entertainment industry full of challenges and opportunities, Sang Jiyue is like a star that is trying to shine. Although she has not yet shone the brightest light, she believes that as long as she works hard, one day she will shine on this stage and realize her dream. And the competition between her and Sang Shuwan has just begun...

Sang Jiuyue pulled her suitcase and struggled to get through the noisy crowd at the airport. The wheels of the suitcase made a monotonous sound on the ground, mixed with the conversations and radio broadcasts around her, interweaving into a busy urban symphony. She raised her hand to hail a taxi, sat in the back seat, leaned back, closed her eyes, and her mind involuntarily emerged from the art exhibition she visited with Sai Xi not long ago. Those wonderful exhibits that combined technology and art seemed to be flashing and jumping in front of her eyes, but reality did not allow her to linger too much. The complex and challenging world of the entertainment industry was waiting for her to return.

The taxi sped along the city streets, and the tall buildings on both sides were like silent guards, rapidly retreating. Sang Jiuyue looked out the window, with nervousness and anticipation in her eyes. The car finally stopped steadily in front of a modern office building, which was the location of Qi's company and the place where Sang Jiuyue's dream would set sail again.

She took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and walked into the building with her suitcase. People were coming and going in the lobby, and everyone was in a hurry. The ringing of phones and the sound of keyboards filled the whole space with a tense and busy working atmosphere. Sang Jiuyue walked to the elevator and pressed the button for the floor where Mr. Qi's office was located. As the elevator slowly rose, her heartbeat became more and more rapid.

The elevator door opened, and Sang Jiuyue saw the imposing front desk of General Manager Qi's company. The receptionist politely asked her the purpose of her visit with a smile, and when she learned that she was here to see General Manager Qi, she immediately called to inform him. After a while, Sang Jiuyue was led into General Manager Qi's office.

President Qi was sitting behind a spacious and bright desk, concentrating on reviewing the documents in her hands. She was wearing a well-cut business suit, with neat short hair, sharp and shrewd eyes, and a strong aura that could not be ignored. When she heard Sang Jiuyue coming in, she raised her head, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile: "Xiaoji, you are finally back, come and sit down."

Sang Jiuyue pulled a chair over and sat down, putting the suitcase aside. Before she had time to catch her breath, she said anxiously, "Boss Qi, I came back this time to tell you that I plan to return to the entertainment industry." Upon hearing this, Boss Qi put down the documents in his hand, leaned back in his chair, and stared at Sang Jiuyue. The smile on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a serious look: "You have to think it over, now is not a good time."

Sang Jiuyue frowned, her eyes full of doubt and puzzlement: "Why?

By the way, I have several film and television projects on hand recently, one of which is a large-scale costume drama with a very exciting script and a top-notch production team. I plan to let you participate in the early planning of this project. You can first familiarize yourself with the process, communicate with the screenwriter, director and others, and put forward your ideas and suggestions."

Sang Jiuyue said excitedly, "That's great, President Qi. I will definitely do my best." President Qi continued, "In this process, you must keep a low profile and not attract too much attention.

Sang Jiuyue walked out of Mr. Qi's office with her suitcase. In the elevator, she looked at her slightly tired but motivated face in the mirror and vowed in her heart: "Sang Shuwan, just wait. One day, I will return to the top of the entertainment industry and let you know how powerful I am."

After returning home, Sang Jiuyue simply packed her luggage, sat on the sofa, turned on her computer, and began to check the film and television project information that Mr. Qi had sent her. This costume drama has a grand story structure, set in a fictional dynasty, and tells the story of love, hatred, and power struggles between the palace and the rivers and lakes. The plot is full of ups and downs, suspense and reversals, and Sang Jiuyue became more and more fascinated as she watched.

In the most famous cloud coffee shop in the city, the hustle and bustle of the city outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is isolated by a layer of glass. Sang Shuwan lazily nestles on the sofa in the corner, wearing a well-cut white shirt and a pair of dark blue slim jeans, simple yet fashionable. She is sipping a latte, and the milk foam outlines a delicate latte art on the surface of the coffee, which sways slightly with her movements.

Her eyes inadvertently swept across the tablet computer on the table, which was displaying a page of entertainment news. A familiar face came into view - Sang Jiuyue announced her comeback. Sang Shuwan's hand trembled violently, and a few drops of coffee splashed on the back of her hand, but she was unaware of it. She just stared at Sang Jiuyue's confident and flamboyant smile on the screen, with a complex emotion flashing in her eyes, including surprise, vigilance, and more anger caused by years of old grudges.

Sang Shuwan and Sang Jiuyue, this pair of old enemies who have set off countless waves in the entertainment industry, the past grievances are like a war without gunpowder but extremely fierce. Many years ago, the fledgling Sang Shuwan stepped into the entertainment industry with great anticipation, and was determined to shine on this stage. However, the appearance of Sang Jiuyue was like a dazzling light, casting all her hopes in shadow. With her unique appearance and outstanding acting talent, Sang Jiuyue quickly emerged in the entertainment industry, and was sought after and praised wherever she went. And Sang Shuwan could only struggle to grope in various small supporting roles, trying to find a ray of light that belongs to him.

What made Sang Shuwan even more upset was that Sang Jiuyue seemed to always target her. In the crew, Sang Jiuyue would use her connections and influence to take away the important roles that Sang Shuwan had worked so hard to get; in various public events, she would often ridicule Sang Shuwan, making her a laughing stock in the eyes of everyone. Over time, the conflict between the two continued to intensify, and eventually they became well-known sworn enemies in the entertainment industry.

Now, Sang Jiuyue suddenly announced her comeback, which made Sang Shuwan alert instantly. She knew very well that Sang Jiuyue must have come prepared for her return this time, and her acting career, which had finally stabilized, was afraid that it would soon face a huge storm.

Sang Shuwan took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She quickly closed the news page, picked up her phone and called her agent Alice. As soon as the call was connected, she said anxiously, "Alice, have you seen the news about Sang Jiyue's comeback?"

Alice was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone, and then a steady voice came: "I see, don't panic. We now have a certain amount of strength and resources, and we won't be easily suppressed by her."

"Having said that, Sang Jiuyue's influence cannot be underestimated. Her comeback will definitely take away a lot of opportunities that originally belonged to me." Sang Shuwan frowned, his tone full of worry.

"I understand your concerns. Just concentrate on preparing the work at hand during this period. I will find a way to deal with it as soon as possible. I will inform you as soon as there is any news." Alice comforted.

After hanging up the phone, Sang Shuwan looked out the window at the prosperous yet competitive city, and secretly swore in his heart that no matter what, he would not let Sang Jiuyue succeed so easily this time, and he must protect everything he had worked so hard to gain.

A few days later, a piece of heavy news spread in the entertainment industry - the famous director Li Ming was selecting a female lead for his new film "The Light of Dawn". The film had a novel theme and a huge investment, and it attracted much attention before it even started filming. Sang Shuwan and Sang Jiuyue almost simultaneously set their sights on this role, and a fierce competition began.

In order to win this key role, Sang Shuwan started a crazy preparation mode. She turned down all unnecessary social events and locked herself in her room every day to study the script. The heroine in the script is a tenacious woman who struggles hard in difficult situations and finally realizes her dream. Sang Shuwan was deeply attracted to this role, and she seemed to see her own shadow in the role. In order to better interpret the role, she carefully analyzed the emotions behind each line, and tried to figure out the psychological changes of the character in different scenes. She often pondered over a detail until late at night.

In addition to studying the script, Sang Shuwan also hired an acting teacher for one-on-one coaching. In every class, she was fully focused, not missing any key points the teacher talked about, and carefully completing every exercise assigned by the teacher. The teacher praised her efforts and talent and encouraged her to stand out in the audition. However, Sang Shuwan did not relax because she knew that Sang Jiuyue was also doing her best, and she might fail if she slacked off.

At the same time, Sang Jiuyue was also making full preparations for the audition. With the connections she had accumulated over the years, she got a lot of inside information about the film, including the director's preferences and expectations for the role. She also invited the industry's top styling team to create her audition look, striving to leave a deep impression on the director and producer with her image. In terms of acting training, Sang Jiuyue was also very careful. She asked well-known actors she had worked with before to act with her, constantly improving her performance.

On the day of the audition, Sang Shuwan arrived early. She wore a simple yet elegant black dress, with her hair tied up in an exquisite bun, revealing her slender neck. She exuded a confident and calm temperament. While waiting, she silently reviewed the plot of the script and the performance details she designed in her mind, and occasionally took a deep breath to adjust her state.

After a while, Sang Jiuyue also appeared. She was wearing a gorgeous red dress, the hem of which spread out like a blooming flower, and the exaggerated accessories sparkled under the lights. Her face was made up with delicate and heavy makeup, and the whole person looked particularly dazzling. After seeing Sang Shuwan, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a disdainful smile, and deliberately raised her voice and said: "Hey, isn't this Sang Shuwan? Why, you are also competing for this role? With your own strength, can you do it?"
