Chapter 270 - “Five Millenia: A History” (1/2)

This was Yun Xiangxiang’s first time working on a film post-production. Yi Yan was also dragged back to dub with her.

Looking at the scenes she acted out and dubbing it according to the mood of the scene was a unique experience.

Yun Xiangxiang learned about voices during her study of Shaoxing opera with Yuan Pingqiu.

But that wasn’t enough. There were professionals providing guidance when she was dubbing.

Yun Xiangxiang became fascinated with voices from this dubbing work. Not the voices themselves, but the magical feeling it brought.

The way to change, control, and imbue emotion to voices.

While Yun Xiangxiang was engrossed in the dubbing, “The King’s Plan”‘s worldwide box office results were released.

They grossed sixty million dollars in one week of screening in North America. Many foreigners critically acclaimed it, saying that they loved it.

The foreigners were impressed by the magnificent scenes. Even though the numbers didn’t break any records, it was still exciting.

“Xiangxiang, want to make an international account?” Song Mian called her over the weekend. “Instagram, or Facebook?”

“No, it’s fine. It’s troublesome for you, and I don’t need to have so many groups of fans,” Yun Xiangxiang refused.

They would have to use a VPN to bypa.s.s the national firewall before logging into these websites. Yun Xiangxiang didn’t even use Weibo that much. She wouldn’t have time for Instagram or Facebook too.

She would have to tend to these if they were created. She couldn’t throw everything to Song Meng. Song Meng also had her studies to tend to.

“Okay then,” Song Meng only asked her about it because she noticed many overseas fans were asking for one.

“The fans are asking about your next move,” Song Meng said again.

“Tell them I’m busy preparing for my finals,” Yun Xiangxiang decided to tell her the truth. “I’ll be going to Paris for a film shoot this summer break. But it hasn’t been officially announced yet.”

“When are you going? Xiangling and I will go with you.” As the fanclub’s president, she needed to do all she could to know what Yun Xiangxiang was doing. Besides, going overseas could broaden her horizons too.

“Do you have the money to go with me?” Yun Xiangxiang asked.

“Don’t you underestimate me. I work part-time on weekends!” Song Meng harrumphed.

“My finals are on the fourth of July. I will be going on the sixth and return around early August,” Yun Xiangxiang estimated.

“Alright. I’ll go with you,” Song Meng hung up and called Li Xiangling.

Qian Qian called her. Yun Xiangxiang would take him here after the entrance examination was over. She asked him how it went. “It was fine,” he said. He was planning to attend a university in Beijing.

Yun Xiangxiang went down and saw the finished bead bracelet. The beads were shaped like rounded squares. There were retro engravings along the edges, and in the beads’ center was an auspicious cloud. It looked magnificently ancient and was cold to the touch.

There were a total of six beads on the bracelets. This number represented ‘smooth sailing.’ And Song Mian’s birthday was on the sixth of June in the Chinese calendar.

Yun Xiangxiang immediately took it home and started knitting with the rope Deng Yang sent her. She made a diamond-knot shaped bracelet.
