After Having Everything Taken Away, She Returns As A God-Chapter 752 - : The Premiere of “Crossing the Demon Realm”! The Definition of Destroyed (1)
Chapter 752: The Premiere of “Crossing the Demon Realm”! The Definition of Destroyed (1)
It was merely a simple word, devoid of any promotional phrases.
A whole year had passed since Qu Lingyun’s last Weibo post.
This sudden activity roused his fans, who speculated whether he had completed a new script, aiming for next year’s Glenn Award.
However, confusion ensued when they saw the original post he shared.
[What drama is this? Did Director Qu make it? Has he switched to TV dramas?]
[No, it’s Tang Haiqiu’s new drama. I usually have no interest in domestic TV dramas as they’ve been declining over the years. But if the boss is promoting it, there must be something worthwhile. Starlight TV, right? I’ll tune in at eight tonight.]
[Wait, did Qu Lingyun post just to promote ‘Crossing the Demon Realm’?]
[Look at Director Qu’s generosity, and then consider a certain Triple Golden Golden Film Awards Actress. Regardless of whether Si Fuqing has achievements, ‘Crossing the Demon Realm’ has reached IFTV. It’s the face of Great Xia! If our seniors don’t nurture talent but rather trample it, won’t it be a joke if the Western Continent finds out?]
[Who says Si Fuqing’s promotion isn’t as strong as Tong Luoyun’s? Director Qu is backing a hundred to one. If Si Fuqing performs well in this drama, she’ll be immortalized as a top star.]
Directors typically didn’t share the spotlight with actors, as they worked behind the scenes.
Even Tang Haiqiu, who spearheaded the xianxia genre, wasn’t widely recognized by face.
Qu Lingyun was different.
He had pioneered a new milestone in Great Xia’s cinema and reversed its disadvantages at the Glenn Awards.
After sharing the post, Qu Lingyun logged off, oblivious to the storm he had ignited online.
In his view, he and Si Fuqing were friends, and he naturally wanted to support her first TV drama.
However, he underestimated his own influence.
Having not directed a film in three years, his legend still permeated the industry, always linked with Yun Lan.
Nobody expected him to log on just to promote a TV drama.
His haters and rival fans quickly seized this opportunity to retaliate.
[What is Qu Lingyun doing? I admit the female lead in the ‘Crossing the Demon Realm’ trailer is decent, but she’s not up to his usual standard. Remember, you’re Yun Lan’s preferred director, Qu Lingyun. If you’re kidnapped by the capital, just blink.]
[This will cause trouble. Si Fuqing’s team will overstep their bounds and leech off Yun Lan.]
[Can Yun Lan’s fans tolerate this?]
However, such low-level fan quarrels had no effect on Yun Lan’s fans.
Instead, Si Fuqing’s Mousses were itching for a fight.
[Laughable, just helping with some promotion and you react this much. If Si Fuqing really starred in Director Qu’s film, you’d be furious.]
[Jealous, aren’t you? You can’t change the fact that Director Qu supports younger talents. Spite him once, and watch your own idol lose an endorsement.]
Tong Luoyun’s team was caught off guard by Qu Lingyun’s post.
With ‘Crossing the Demon Realm’ backed by IFTV, ‘The Great Zhao Dynasty’ was already falling behind.
But penetrating the international market was challenging.
Due to cultural differences, domestic dramas rarely gained international recognition.
This was where Qu Lingyun’s strength lay.
He had made three movies with Yun Lan, all different themes rooted in the history and culture of the Great Xia Empire, yet they were internationally acclaimed.
Tong Luoyun’s team could only focus domestically.
But unexpectedly, Qu Lingyun alone overshadowed the other actors and directors invited by Tong Luoyun’s team.
“Why would Director Qu suddenly share the promotional post for ‘Crossing the Demon Realm’?” the agent pondered, puzzled. “He’s been traveling and designing jewelry and clothing for years, barely connected to the film industry. Could she be his next actress of choice?”
After Yun Lan retired, Qu Lingyun still co-directed a movie, a blockbuster featuring a prominent male leading role.
The male lead had entered the international acting scene and won an international best actor award, though he was still far from the Glenn Award.
Securing a role in a Qu Lingyun film would solidify anyone’s status in the international scene.
The agent naturally wanted to secure such a role for Tong Luoyun, but with Qu Lingyun not directing films, it was a missed opportunity.
Tong Luoyun frowned. “Her, as Director Qu’s next actress of choice?”
“Probably because she made it to IFTV that Director Qu noticed her,” the agent frowned. “No wonder the industry says she’s a lucky koi fish with divine fortune.”
