Chapter 223: Single Edition Release
Wu Tong had spent two days in the Palace Museum. Time spent restoring ancient paintings went by fast even though she was just a spectator. She gained a lot of experience and was grateful just to fix some edges.
What she didn’t expect was that on the third day, the master in charge of ancient painting restoration had arranged an important task for her. She was so excited she had broken into a small dance. Her professional skills had been recognized by an industry master, and it was not just a verbal recognition either! There was nothing else that could make her happier.
Oh, wait, there was. That would be the happiness from sharing this exciting news, for example, with Meng Fan.
“It’s already pompous that you’re so good looking, but you’re talented too. You can really do whatever you want!”
“I’ll take that as a compliment.”
“Of course, if these are compliments, then nothing I say is worth considering.”
“What have you been up to lately? Oh right, how goes the voice acting business?”
Wu Tong and Meng Fan would often run, exercise, and stretch together in the morning as they chatted. They could both be considered the kind of people who were very open to conversation. Sometimes, Meng Fan would be the only one talking. While other times, Meng Fan would listen to Wu Tong talk. They had a good understanding of each other’s past.
For example, Meng Fan knew that it was Wu Tong’s dream to restore artifacts in the Palace Museum.
And another example was that Wu Tong knew that Meng Fan’s other dream besides creating a manga was to become a voice actor.
Meng Fan had told her about his voice acting applications and even about the time he met a voice acting director because he had gotten hit by a diamond ring. That was why Wu Tong asked.
“It’s going okay. I’ve recorded for a cartoon TV show, which should be airing soon, but it’s a preschool animation. Oh, and some video game characters as well. Overall, the experience has been pretty good. Dreams are a funny thing. The scariest thing is realizing your dream only to find out that it just feels so so.”
“The way you talk makes me want to beat you up.”
“Then come hit me!”
“… I’m gonna go. I have to do some homework tonight.”
“How much longer until you’re done with everything?”
“Probably another week or so. They only need me for three days, so I’ll head back to school afterward.”
Wu Tong’s trip was set to last three or four days, but because of the large number of tasks she’d been given, she had to stay another three or four days.
In the blink of an eye, it was November 22nd already. Meng Fan didn’t go to the Chocolate Factory for he had already recorded all the roles he had been given. Currently, he had played 47 roles that were approved by the System. The time spent in the studio had also accumulated to 1300 minutes or 22 hours.
He had requested more roles from director Charlie, but they were all roles that required a lot of work, so the progress of gaining experience became much slower.
Director Charlie could tell that Meng Fan wanted to test out some other roles, so he agreed to find some more video game commissions just for him. He told Meng Fan to rest for a few days, and that he would call Meng Fan once the listings came.
“Where are you?”
“Almost there, on the way.”
