Chapter 168

Every day busy to death, it is really for work.

Since deciding to take on that role, Qin Wei had to make some preparations. After all, there was more than one or two candidates for each role, no matter the popularity, they still had to go for the audition.

Qiao Sixiao said she did recommend her, but the prerequisite for her to be able to perform was that she could be competent.

So in order to match the image of the role, Qin Wei asked Li Yao to help her find a teacher and started a short-term intensive training.

Sun Tiantian was dumbfounded. Based on her understanding of Qin Wei, there shouldn’t be any suitable role for her...

That requires intensive training, right?

Now fairies also need intensive training to ride and shoot??

Sun Tiantian tried asking her tentatively:

"Training in fairy arts?"

Qin Wei: "??"

"Hogwarts admission training..."

Sun Tiantian was a little excited:

"Are you going to advance into the international film industry!?"

Qin Wei looked at her in disgust:

"You actually believed that! I went for horse riding and archery training."

The first time she mentioned learning horse riding and archery to Li Yao, Li Yao assumed it was modern equestrianism, and specially invited an English professional teacher to teach her.

Li Yao also felt that his daughter was enlightened and knew that horse riding made girls look cool and would attract countless fans.

Xu General Manager also supported her decision and secretly ordered equestrian gear overseas for her. He even started preparing to buy a horse, planning to give it to her as a birthday present.

But Qin Wei said:

"I'm learning horse riding and archery for a role, don't think too much."

When Li Yao heard this, he was even happier. It meant his daughter was going to act again!!

So according to Qin Wei's requirements, he found her a teacher to teach her horse riding and archery.

This was not difficult to find on the northern grasslands, but not so easy in the capital city. Fortunately Xu General Manager was willing to spend money. He invited a teacher from the grasslands overnight who could ride horses and shoot bows.

Then he rented a venue where she could go and train every day.

Sun Tiantian listened in astonishment again:

"Since I don't act in ancient or fantasy dramas, I didn't know the industry was so competitive now! Even fairies have to ride and shoot?"

Qin Wei told her to broaden her horizons. She didn't necessarily only play fairy roles.

"A courtesan."

"You go read the book."

Qin Wei gave her the novel that Qiao Sixiao had given her.

Although the TV adaptation had major changes, the basic framework and character settings remained unchanged. The role she was going to play was a girl of foreign ethnicity who grew up on horseback. Riding and archery was as common to her as eating and drinking every day.

The director had his own requirements for this role - the actress had to be good looking, willing to endure hardship, absolutely professional, couldn't ask for leave easily during filming, no stunt double allowed, and there were many distant horse riding and archery scenes filmed on the grasslands, so many of those shots were real riding and shooting.

The difficulty was so high and the requirements so many that very few people could be selected who met the conditions.

At one point Qin Wei thought Qiao Sixiao was trying to sabotage her. Why didn't she go and act in it herself?

Qiao Sixiao was also frank with her:

"I can't make time for it. If this drama could be delayed until next year, I would have taken it. The main reason is He Hong doesn't agree. She feels this role is not worth the payoff for the comeback, it would impact her earnings too much."

"It could also impact my earnings."

Qin Wei said.

"And horse riding has too big an injury risk. Can't guarantee I won't break something."

The kind Qiao Sixiao comforted her:

"It doesn't matter if you get injured, I'll pay for your care. It also doesn't matter if you die, I'll personally burn incense for you. Anyway I like this role. Either I'll play it myself or absolutely won't let it go to just anyone."

Qin Wei rolled her eyes at her:

"I feel like you just want to burn incense for me."

But after hesitating so long, Qin Wei felt she could still try it. She also liked this daring, passionate and carefreely bold character. And overall she didn't have that many scenes. The director was also very professional. It was worth trying.

After deciding, Li Yao appropriately arranged her schedule. Just as Sun Tiantian observed, morning dance practice, afternoon horse riding and archery.

Sun Tiantian asked her softly:

"Then what rules are you following at night going to the next room?"

"Going to discuss the role and plot. An in-depth understanding of the role from multiple angles is still necessary. Qiao Sixiao has read this novel and has her own understanding of the role. Exchanging views with her makes portraying it easier."

What Qin Wei said was the truth, but privately she also went to take some lessons. Over the past few years Qiao Sixiao's acting had improved. Apart from bad luck she was still lacking some things, but she had either won or been nominated for most of the mainstream awards.

If she was willing to teach, it was Qin Wei's gain.

Sun Tiantian looked at her dubiously:

"Then why did you specially take a bath?"

Qin Wei: "?"

Sun Tiantian channeled her detective spirit:

"Why did you fall silent? Feeling guilty?"

Qin Wei poked Sun Tiantian's head with her finger:

"Feeling guilty your head! What's filled up that brain of yours?

I train all day and come back covered in dirt. Wouldn't it be too impolite to go to someone's room like that?

Don't think I don't know Sun Tiantian. You browse the CP threads on your alt account and even secretly write fanfiction! Be careful or your company will find out!"

Sun Tiantian was completely nonchalant:

"Pfft! It's been uncovered long ago that I write fanfiction under this username. But I don't write anything dirty. The company knows too. Can't say they encourage it but they say they respect the personal hobbies of artists."

After she finished, Sun Tiantian looked at the time and hurried Qin Wei to go take a bath:

"It's late today! You obediently sleep after this."

Qin Wei was in no hurry to get up. She twisted her fingers, trying her best to conceal her anxiety:

"No need tonight. I went to audition this afternoon. I've done everything I could. Just still don't know the result. It's also possible I made a futile effort."

Sun Tiantian walked to her side and patted her shoulder:

"As long as you've done your best, that's fine. But one should do good deeds without asking about the results!"

"But I'm a little curious, how did your riding and shooting practice go?"

Qin Wei thought back:

"If no one helps me, I can get on and off the horse myself, lead it around the ring holding the reins without falling off.

As for archery, hahahahaha..."

She could still manage the modern recurve bow. But the traditional bow needed in the TV drama...

Currently she could just pretend she knew how...

...

The next few days, it was business as usual in the livestream room. But Qin Wei’s fans were unusually quiet. There were no fans online refuting criticisms of her, no matter how big the rumors were. All of the attacks were met with silence from her fan club rather than retaliation. Only casual fans and outraged passersby responded, scolding those gossip websites for slandering her.

But everyone still wondered, where did her fans disappear to?
