Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

“Supervisor Yuan, do you know anyone else who needs a voice actress?” Luosang asked, eyes showing hesitation.

Supervisor Yuan paused briefly, then understood her meaning. He cherished Luosang’s talent, so he looked at her and said, “An idol drama directed by Hong Yuxing is about to be finished. I’ve had meals together with him. I can ask him if he needs voice actors, but I’m not sure if he’ll agree to hire you. How about this… I’ll send him the best part of your dubbing from this online series. He’s a professional director, so I think he’ll be able to tell how good you are.”

“Thank you so much.” Luosang was surprised. She had heard about Hong Yuxing. Every idol drama directed by him has topped the charts. If she could get the chance to work with him, she would have some hope for a brighter future.

“You’re recommended by Professor Ma, so that’s what I should do.” Supervisor Yuan looked at her in praising, and said, “Besides, you’re even more professional than most experienced dubbers, and you have a great voice as well. It really has been a waste for you to dub online series. Alright, it’s getting late. You should go back to school.”

Luosang thanked him again, then took the subway back to her dorm.

All three of her roommates were in the room. That surprised her. In art school, many students would start working with film companies or would get part-time jobs the second semester of the third year of their studies. Tang Ning was doing an internship in a radio station and Yan Su was a bar singer. Ye Chuen had a great family background, so she had already signed a contract with a record company, and her first album was in preparation. Therefore, she hardly showed up in the dorm.

“Luo, you’re finally back. Chuen just left to attend an activity. She brought many desserts and drinks,” Tang Ning said after she waved at Luosang while biting a piece of cake.

“Nice. You’re already attending activities?” Luosang smilingly picked up a cup of juice. She was thirsty.

“The company wants me to get familiar with all kinds of activities. They’ve sent some experienced singers to guide me.” Ye Chuen was painting her toenails. She smiled proudly and continued, “Tang Ning quitted her radio station internship. She wants you to get her a dubbing job.”

Luosang paused, then saw the begging look in Tang Ning’s eyes. “The female anchor from that radio station was bullying me the whole time. And my wage was ridiculously little. I got so angry today, so I quit. Luo, you seem to be doing quite well in the dubbing circle; could you please introduce me to someone? I can dub for supporting actresses; it doesn’t necessarily have to be the leading actress,” she said.

“I’ll definitely help you if I can. But I’ve just finished the online series that I’ve been working on. Now, I don’t have any work to do either,” said Luosang with a serious look. “Tang Ning, no matter what kind of job you do, it’s normal for you to take pressure from the seniors. The dubbing circle is also complicated.”

“I think you’re doing it quite easily,” Tang Ning pouted.

Yan Su couldn’t bear hearing her complaints, so she said to Tang Ning, “That’s because she didn’t tell you about the difficulties. If she was truly doing as well as you say, she wouldn’t be only doing online series now.”

Luosang glanced at Yan Su gratefully.

Tang Ning sighed and said, “You’re better than me anyway.”

Luosang stayed silent.

Ye Chuen smilingly waved her hand and said, “Alright, alright, let’s change the topic. Did you see the WeChat moments? Chi Shengxu is coming back to school tomorrow. He’s finished filming his movie.”

“Ah, no wonder you’ve suddenly started sleeping in the dorm again.” Tang Ning chuckled and said, “But Chi Shengxu is good, indeed. He’s the same age as us, but he’s already made six or seven movies. He’s so famous now. This time, he worked with award-winning actors and actresses in his new movie. I’m afraid he’ll become an A-lister this year. Hm, he has a good background, and that’s why he has great resources.”
