Qiao Lian felt as though Shen Liangchuan was reading her mind and doing this on purpose.
She grimaced and asked, “What about today then?”
The junior assistant replied, “They’ve canceled filming for today, so that everyone can go home to pack. We’ll gather at 2 p.m. to leave for Hengdian together.”
Qiao Lian nodded.
Although taking a break from live streaming for a day or two was not a problem, she couldn’t possibly do that for an extended period.
Hence, she had to make a trip home to retrieve her live streaming equipment and take it along.
Qiao Lian got home, took her laptop and packed a few belongings. Then she returned to the filming set.
By the time she arrived, it was 1.30 p.m.
She saw a few unfamiliar faces standing there.
When the crew worker saw Qiao Lian looking in their direction with a puzzled expression, he explained, “These are popular casters from different platforms. Since we’re going to Hengdian to shoot, we thought of getting everyone to come along.”
Qiao Lian realized something all of a sudden.
She had initially been quite puzzled about the fact that, when turned up to film, she had been the only caster. When she signed the agreement, the company had indicated that there would be two casters from each platform involved in the filming. Now she understood.
Because of Shen Liangchuan’s limited availability, the filming crew had arranged it so that she could shoot the scenes with him first.
The other casters were playing the roles of other champions in the video game. However, their scenes were shorter than hers.
As she stood quietly by the side observing, a pretty lady who seemed rather arrogant walked up to her and asked, “Hi, are you Love Chuan?”
Qiao Lian looked at her and nodded.
The girl extended her hand towards Qiao Lian and introduced herself, “I’m Water Incense from the Incense Livestream platform.”
Water Incense?
Qiao Lian paused for a moment.
Water Incense creased her brow at Qiao Lian’s reaction. “Have you never heard of me?”
Of course she had heard of the girl.
As a reporter, she knew almost all of the popular figures on the major platforms.
This girl, Water Incense, had been extremely popular throughout most of the country two years ago.
However, she wasn’t in eSports. She had a few million fans on Weibo and was very popular.
Rumor had it that she had been sought by many filming companies, who were trying to get her to join the entertainment industry and star in TV series.
But why had she approached Qiao Lian to introduce herself?
From the vibes Qiao Lian was getting, Water Incense didn’t seem terribly fond of her.
Whatever the reason, Qiao Lian immediately extended her hand and said, “Hi, how are you?”
Yet before her hand had even made contact, Water Incense withdrew her hand, lowered her head and said as she studied her nails, “I was wondering why they would even get a small-time caster to play the lead role in this advertisement. Why, I thought it was going to be some great beauty, perfect for the role, but it turned out to be no big deal.”
Qiao Lian was stunned.
So this girl had approached her just to insult her?
She lowered her gaze.
Did this girl really think that she was a newbie in the entertainment industry?
Feigning innocence, Qiao Lian replied, “Indeed, I was surprised too. But it’s not really up to us who they wish to pick for the female lead. Doesn’t it depend on the platform?”
In other words, the Incense Livestream platform could not hold a candle to her own eSports platform.
Water Incense almost choked at her comeback. “You- Our platform’s most popular female streamers easily have millions of fans, unlike you guys, who at best have 100 000 fans.”
Qiao Lian nodded in agreement. “That’s true. Obviously, our platform draws less audience than yours. But why did they choose our platform to select the female lead role then? Oh… I remember now. Because this is Lot’s trailer and our platform specializes in video games!”
ESports live streams were a very niche field to begin with. Hence, it was completely unfair of Water Incense to compare a normal streamer to a female eSports caster.
