Chapter 538 The Vanished Her, A Sweet Love Story!

Chapter 538 The Vanished Her, A Sweet Love Story!
The recording of the three songs was not easy; it took several days of hard work to finally get it done.

During the recording, we didn't encounter any amazing composers or lyricists, nor did we meet any music company bosses who wanted to discuss collaborations with Qi Hui and Jing Tian.

It has to be said that it's a bit of a pity. Qi Hui wanted to show off, make a name for himself, and then develop his career in film, television, and music!

Unfortunately, fate didn't give him that chance.

He, Qi, hadn't developed any singing skills, so it wasn't realistic for him to sing himself. He'd rather let Jing Tian do it.

During this time, Qi Hui, who had nothing else to do, also started live streaming.
Open the Shark website and register a live streamer account: 【AAA Handmade Lao Qi】

Then I bought some live streaming equipment and set up my carving room in the basement as a live streaming studio.

After Jing Tian finished recording, Qi Hui took her to the jade raw material market and bought two or three palm-sized pieces of jade raw material.

Carving the Imperial Seal of the State was an idea that Qi Hui had long held.
However, the Imperial Seal of the State is not as large as it is in the new "Romance of the Three Kingdoms," where the seal is almost as big as a person's head.

Historical records indicate that the Imperial Seal of the State could be worn on the waist and used to strike people; it was probably only slightly larger than an ordinary seal.

However, Qi Hui does not intend to carve according to the actual size.

Firstly, it's quite difficult, which means it will take a considerable amount of time.
Secondly, it doesn't quite meet the public's expectations. If it's too small, does it deserve the title of the Imperial Seal of the State?
While this perception may be somewhat unrealistic, it is undeniably quite reasonable.
Following the example of the short videos he had watched before his transmigration, Qi Hui made the Imperial Seal of the State into a palm-sized piece, the kind that could be barely held in one hand.

Qi Hui did not start the live broadcast immediately, but first processed the raw materials.

After smoothing the end face, writing the seal script in reverse, designing and roughly carving the seal knob, and after a flurry of work, the rough shape of the jade seal was roughly formed.

The five intertwined dragons on the seal knob give a general idea of its design.

Starting from scratch would take too long and require too much feedback; viewers wouldn't be able to keep watching.

Therefore, Qi Hui chose to start with the rough embryo, so that the feedback he received would be clearer and more transparent.

The idea was good, but the results were far from ideal in the first few days after the broadcast.

Only a handful of people follow him, and the chat during his live streams is completely empty.

After a brief review, Qi Hui began making improvements.

Change the live stream title from "Hand-carved" to "Carving a National Imperial Seal".

This is simpler, clearer, and more appealing.

Then, a rough sketch of the finished product was displayed on the live stream screen.

He then added text to the live stream screen, reiterating that he was "carving a national jade seal."

Meanwhile, music was played in the live stream.

Jing Tian watched Qi Hui's live stream and said that the live stream was somewhat hypnotic, with only the buzzing sound of the electric grinder and nothing else, making her want to fall asleep.

But the sound of the electric grinder is also very jarring. Just as I was getting sleepy, I was woken up by the sound of the electric grinder, which was quite torturous.

After some improvements, the results were visibly better, with the number of followers increasing from single digits to triple digits.

Rarely seen bullet comments started to appear from time to time.

"666, someone is actually carving on Shark Live!"

"Carve the Imperial Seal of the State? You'd have to cut off your legs before you can carve it properly!"

Am I the only one who thinks this music is outdated?

You are not alone!

"Damn, even 'Working Man' and 'Shaking the Sun' have come out. These songs are older than me."

"Grandpa, if you don't know how to play games, don't try to do live streaming like young people!"

"Shut up, who said it's only for playing video games? Hand-carved sculptures are beautiful too!"

"That's right, he's the first person to livestream shark carving, a pioneer! A trailblazer!"

"If you feel bored, you can open two web pages, one to watch the game and the other to look at the sculpture."

"good idea!"

"Hilarious, why don't I just watch the game then?"

"..."

The simple question instantly sparked a lot of discussion, and Qi Hui's live stream saw its first peak in bullet comments.

And then... and then nothing more happened; it just went back to silence.

Qi Hui didn't seem to care, and instead began carving little by little to address the situation.
The five intertwined dragons are quite difficult to carve, and he doesn't have much time to carve them each day, as he has other things to do.

I need to host the promotional work for "The Vanished She" and spend time with Jing Tian, etc.

At this pace, it will take at least half a month to complete.

……

Guo Fan: @Qi Hui Lao Qi, I heard you started live streaming?

Guo Fan suddenly sent a message in the group.
This news was revealed by Jing Tian during a conversation with Guo's wife.

Guo's wife naturally wouldn't hide it from Guo Fan, and casually mentioned it during the meal.

Before Qi Hui could speak, Lu Yang jumped out and said, "Holy crap, Senior Brother is live streaming?"

"What did they broadcast? Was it borderline?" His message was full of shock, followed by anticipation.

With such a great physique and so many rich women in the capital, our senior brother Qi Hui has a very promising future in the industry!
"You're overthinking it. It's carving the Imperial Seal of the State." Wu Jing chimed in, sending a message: "I must say, it looks pretty good!"

Lu Yang: No? Old Wu, how did you know too?

Everyone else knows the news, except me?
What's going on? Am I being ostracized?
Wu Jing: My wife told me.

Guo Fan: My wife told me.

Lu Yang: Lao Guo, don't repeat a year.

Guo Fan: I didn't repeat a year, that's the truth, aren't you the same?

Guo Fan asked a question, and then, as if suddenly realizing something, said:
"Oh, by the way, Lao Lu, you don't have a wife yet."

Lu Yang: ..."

So angry!
Qi Hui: Hahahaha

It's quite amusing. These three directors, instead of making movies, are quite entertaining to perform stand-up comedy.

Wu Jing: Getting back to the point, @Qi Hui Lao Qi, why did you suddenly start a live stream?

Qi Hui: It's for promoting the movie.

"It's not appropriate for me to show up during the movie's offline promotions, so you know what I mean."

Wu Jing: Hahahaha

They really shouldn't have shown up, otherwise they would have been scorned by the audience.

In "The Vanished Woman", Qi Hui is completely transformed into a villain, and also a gambling addict who murdered his wife.

In the movie, he deceived everyone from beginning to end; he deceived Shen Man, played by Jing Tian, in the film, and he deceived a large number of viewers in real life.
If I were there, I might get yelled at to death.

Guo Fan: I'm not going to support your movie. It sounds like too much trouble.

Lu Yang: It was the right choice!

He was talking about Qi Hui, and also about Guo Fan. Of course, he had read the movie script and knew what the story of "The Vanished She" was about.

To be fair, the male lead, He Fei, is much more ruthless than the villainous eunuch Zhao Jingzhong in his movie!

Guo Fan: We can't go, but Lao Lu, you can!

He didn't send the second half of the sentence: Anyway, you don't have a girlfriend.
Lu Yang: ..."

Although it wasn't posted, Lao Lu understood Lao Guo's meaning and gritted his teeth in resentment.
Next time my senior brother tries to screw over Lao Guo, I'll definitely kick him while he's down!

hateful!

……

That day, Yang Mi, who had just finished playing a game live, started her daily chat with her viewers.

The promotion for "The Vanished She" has already begun, and Yang Mi feels it's time for her to make her mark.

"Yes, Qi Hui's film 'The Vanished Woman'." In front of the camera, Yang Mi spoke fluently: "He was my classmate. Qi Hui's works have always been masterpieces, I don't need to say more, right?"

"Remember to buy tickets and watch the movie on the day of its release. You won't be disappointed."

According to Qi Hui, this is a movie about a sweet love story.

A barrage of comments floated across the screen.

"expect!"

"Oh wow? Qi Hui even makes romance movies?"

"That's rare, sometimes there isn't even a woman in his movies."

"A sweet love story? Really?"

"Does Wolf Warrior understand romance?"

"Looking forward to it, I'll go check it out then, during National Day, right?"

"..."

Yang Mi's smile remained unchanged, and her mood improved even more.

A few days ago, when I was messaging Qi Hui, he told me to say this.
