Wilderness Livestream: Other People Struggle to Survive While I Became Famous by Looking After a Cat

Chapter 122: It’s Not Bad to Stay

Translator: Zayn_

Song Qingyou’s new drama was a Machiavellian drama.

There were many political dramas in China, and most of the classics were adapted from famous works.

Chen Lan sent the script over. The first thing Lin Siya saw was the words “Historical Machiavellian Drama” and the words “Scriptwriter: Qing Meng” below.

Lin Siya raised her eyebrows. “Qing Meng… The screenwriter of The Immortal Demon?”

Thinking of the excellent lines in “The Immortal Demon”, Lin Siya temporarily put down her prejudice against the new drama’s plot.

The style of the lines of historical dramas was completely different from that of Xianxia and urban dramas.

Even if it was compiled, it couldn’t be completely unexamined.

When Song Qingyou was writing the script, she marked all the necessary ornaments and clothing on it.

Looking at the densely packed words in the script, Lin Siya gained a little more confidence in Qing Meng and began to focus on the storyline.

The title of the script was ‘The Empress’.

The background was that the last emperor of the Luo Dynasty implemented tyranny and was ignorant and immoral, which led to the fragmentation of the dynasty and the rise of troubled times.

The female protagonist, Su Yiwan, traveled from the modern era to the last years of this dynasty. She was adopted by a eunuch because of her intelligence. Because the emperor was lecherous, she had to disguise herself as a man and changed her name to Su Yi, becoming the son of the eunuch that everyone looked down upon.

At first, Su Yi only wanted to settle down in troubled times and never had the idea of saving the world and helping the people. However, after his adoptive father’s family was executed by the Emperor as a joke, Su Yi escaped with his life. Along the way, he saw the lives of the people in misery and hunger everywhere, and finally made up his mind to rebel.

Simply put, this was the story of a young girl becoming an emperor.

However, Qing Meng’s writing was brilliant, attracting readers to read all the way to the end.

Most of the political dramas on earth were dominated by men, and there were relatively few female roles. It almost vividly reflected the superiority of men and inferiority of women in ancient times.

Qing Meng was different. The background of her creation was a chaotic world where etiquette and rhythm were broken.

Since etiquette and rhythm had collapsed, it was natural for the female protagonist to let the idea of ’equality between men and women’ subtly influence people.

Lin Siya would play the role of the lead’s right-hand who would help the female lead ascend to the throne.

This character was born with supernatural powers and was knowledgeable and versatile. She could be said to be skilled in both civil and martial fields, but because of her gender, she was forced to marry. Later, her husband died in troubled times, and she met the female lead during desperate times…

Lin Siya spent half a day flipping through the script from beginning to end.

She finally understood why Song Qingyou was so certain that a good script was the most important thing.

Therefore, the first thing Lin Siya said when she looked up was, “1’11 take this drama. Just sign the contract. I’ll get Brother Zhao to help me reject the other jobs.”

Chen Lan’s face lit up. When she notified Song Qingyou to send the contract over, she kept reminding her to thank Qing Meng.

Song Qingyou was speechless.

Alright, she would thank her properly.

After all, she had a headache from writing the script.

Because it was close to the end of the year, the new drama would only start shooting next year.

Therefore, the news of Lin Siya’s participation in “The Empress” had not been released yet.

However, thanks to Lin Siya’s introduction, the lead actors for the new drama were quickly found.

The male lead was played by He Yuan, who was ranked 30th on the Celebrity Impact Rankings.

He Yuan had always kept a low profile, but his acting skills were obvious. Coupled with his good looks, he had always been very popular.

It was worth mentioning that He Yuan was also Cui Xuelin’s student, and Song Qingyou had to call him senior brother, although He Yuan himself did not know it.

The other male character with more scenes was the little emperor who was kidnapped before he ascended the throne.

Since the little emperor was only a little over ten years old, the actors had to be around the same age.

Song Qingyou went to the film studio and finally asked her teacher Cui Xuelin for help to find a suitable candidate.

Yan Yu, who entered the entertainment industry because of an advertisement and was only 12 years old this year.

At the end of December.

Song Qingyou attended the TV Drama Festival and successfully won the Best Newcomer Award.

In addition, “The Immortal Demon” also won a series of awards such as the Best New Director Award, the Best Screenplay Award, the Best Special Effects Award… and became the most eye-catching production at this year’s TV Drama Festival.

The next day, Wen Xia sent her the Best Newcomer Award for Novels that she had received on her behalf.

Song Qingyou hid the trophy in a box on the display cabinet while Jiang Zhihan watched.

“Zhizhi, don’t accidentally push this box down.” Song Qingyou warned.

The cat looked at her unhappily.

He wasn’t one of those stupid cats. How could he do such a thing?

After spending so much time together, Song Qingyou could occasionally understand what her cat was trying to say.

She reached out and scratched the cat’s chin. “I knew Zhizhi wouldn’t do that. To reward you, I’ll make steamed prawns and eggs for you tonight.”

This was Jiang Zhihan’s favorite food after he turned into a cat.

His initial intention to jump away was gone. He simply lay on the top of the cabinet, half-closed his eyes, and enjoyed the “massage.”

Song Qingyou took the opportunity to carry him down.

“Speaking of which, there are still three days until the last day of the year.”

“It’s just me and Zhizhi during the New Year… Why don’t we go to the hospital that day?”

With a cat by her side, her desire to talk when she was alone became stronger.

Although the Annual Celebrity Awards ceremony was over, the rankings would actually be refreshed on the last day.

This also meant that Jiang Zhihan had a high chance of waking up.

As Jiang Zhihan listened to Song Qingyou’s nagging, he thought back to the Jiang family’s banquet that was always too lively every year.

He suddenly felt that staying was not a bad idea.

“Speaking of which, Zhizhi isn’t even a year old yet, so he probably hasn’t seen fireworks… Daddy likes to set off fireworks very much. If Daddy was still awake, he would be very happy every time at this time…”

In Beijing[l], there was only half an hour to set off fireworks at midnight of the new year.

Song Qingyou couldn’t remember how long it had been since she last celebrated the new year with her adoptive father. It had been so long that the warm memories of the father and daughter were almost blurred.

Jiang Zhihan looked back at her and couldn’t help but pat the back of her hand.

Song Qingyou suddenly smiled, hiding the nostalgia in her eyes, and muttered, “This year’s work is over. Should 1 give Sister Lan an annual leave?”

Speak of the devil.

Before she finished speaking, the doorbell rang.

As expected, Chen Lan was standing outside.

“Here, this is for you.”

Chen Lan stuffed a few pages of paper into her hand.

Song Qingyou glanced at it. “Script?”

“Yes, Su Rong gave it to me. She said she wants you to be the female lead of Yu Muhuai’s new music video.”

“I think you have nothing to do these few days anyway, so you should agree.”

Song Qingyou didn’t comment. Just as she was about to put the script on the table to read, Zhizhi jumped up and tried to grab it.

“No.” Song Qingyou shook her index finger.

Jiang Zhihan retracted his paw and stared at the script.

Chen Lan walked over. “That’s strange. Why is Zhizhi interested in a few pieces of paper today? Usually, it’s useless to tease it with anything…”

“Maybe it smelled Yu Muhuai,” Song Qingyou said calmly. “Zhizhi seems to hate him.”

“What? There’s such a thing?”

Not only Chen Lan, but even Zhizhi was stunned.

How did Song Qingyou know he hated Yu Muhuai?

“Maybe it’s because Yu Muhuai doesn’t like cats either? Every time he’s around, Zhizhi keeps a close eye on him.”

“I didn’t pay attention anyway.”

Chen Lan’s view of Song Qingyou’s importance to Zhizhi was once again refreshed.

Notes:

[1]: Jing City here refers to Beijing. I might just use that since it’s obvious that the novel is based in China..
