Chapter 1290: The New Female Lead
Not only that, Jiang Lihua’s special ability wasn’t bad either; in the whole lab she was at an upper–middle level. Even though she only had one Instant Teleportation skill, it was enough that no one could ever catch her.
Even Yan Yan had spent two years looking for her and still couldn’t find her.
Fan Xinglan instantly felt even more ashamed. "And I actually kept treating her like some female ghost..."
Yun Qiluo mimicked Fu Lifei, shaking her head with a sigh. "How about you head up to the infirmary now and let Hua Hua examine you? Problems with your brain really ought to be treated early."
Fan Xinglan: "..."
.
The summer weather was especially scorching, and all the classrooms at school had the air conditioners on. Before every class, Yun Qiluo had to buy herself an ice-cold cup of fruit tea.
Even though she’d stayed with the crew for a week, after coming back she only spent a single day to catch up on all the coursework. Her learning ability left even the professors in awe. They’d originally had opinions about her abandoning her studies to go film, but now they were completely convinced.
On Weibo, Yun Qiluo was getting more and more popular. Because of the crew changing the lead actress, the drama had actually picked up some buzz. Plus, lots of people had liked Yun Qiluo’s trailer last time, so when they got back, Xue Fan sensibly had people release a bunch of her teasers, stills, behind-the-scenes clips and so on.
After all, Yan Yan had put money into it; even if he hadn’t asked for anything, Xue Fan still felt he ought to give Yun Qiluo some preferential treatment.
So Yun Qiluo was really hot lately. Even a lot of people at school knew about it, and quite a few of them were her fans.
When Song Shijia found out, she was even a bit excited. "Luo Luo, do you think there’s a chance you could use this drama to find your real parents?"
Yun Qiluo scratched her head. "No idea. The drama hasn’t even aired yet, and what if they don’t use Weibo?"
The promo for this drama hadn’t been particularly strong at first. Only after Yan Yan took over did it start getting resources for promotion.
So it was only just starting to show up on Weibo now.
"Besides, I’m just trying it out with this drama. I’ll talk about it after I act it well first."
Yun Qiluo’s mentality was pretty good. She simply liked this industry anyway; looking for her parents was just something on the side.
She went to class for a few days, learned almost everything, then had Shijia take notes on the courses for her again, and once more packed up to head back to the crew.
This time, no matter what, Wang Ma insisted on going with her. Yun Qiluo thought about it—everyone already knew she was acquainted with the beautiful woman, and there was no way to keep a low profile even if she wanted to—so she brought Wang Ma along.
In addition, this time they were using a nanny van. Yan Yan had seen how bad the conditions were for her in the crew and specifically had Secretary Qin pick one out for her. Although it only cost a bit over two million, not that expensive, it was already a top-configuration nanny van. The inside was very spacious, could hold a lot of snacks, and even had a small fridge for her cold drinks and popsicles.
Two days earlier, the crew had already found a new female lead, named Dai Jingyun. She was an unknown third- or fourth-tier small-time actress, but she was very pretty and her acting was quite good. She just hadn’t been in any hit dramas before, so she wasn’t famous.
Of course, the main thing was that her vibe matched the role of Jiang Yunxuan perfectly.
Her personality was low-key and down-to-earth too; she wasn’t the type to stir up pointless drama.
Xue Fan had picked her precisely because of that.
Dai Jingyun cherished this opportunity very much, and her performance was something Lan Xinxin simply couldn’t compare to. By the time Yun Qiluo returned to set, she had already reshot all the scenes that Lan Xinxin had filmed before, and had even surpassed the previous progress.
