Chapter 18 Temporary Live Broadcast
Chapter 18 Temporary Live Broadcast
Gu Shijiu and Shi Qi learned how to use the new device under the guidance of the smart AI of the bracelet, and it was indeed similar to using a mobile phone.
After they had learned how to use it, they registered accounts on WB, the largest social platform in the Misty Immortal Realm.
To make things easier for the residents of the celestial realm, many years ago, all kinds of platforms, including forums, movies and TV shows, live streaming, shopping, entertainment, and instant messaging, were connected to the WB port.
Residents can meet all their daily needs by simply downloading this one app.
The platform's smart assistant is also very intelligent; it discovered that the two had just finished filming a movie as soon as they logged in.
The authentication screen will pop up directly.
Gu Shijiu clicked "Yes", and soon the identity verification section on her homepage displayed "Actor, representative work 'The Great Xia War God'".
She wasn't very good at using these smart devices before, and she thought things in the new world would be more complicated, but it turned out to be simpler than she expected.
Gu Shijiu really liked this kind of foolproof operation.
With so much information on the platform, Shi Qi focused on finding content related to "The Princess of Great Xia".
It was only then that he realized that the movies and TV shows here were completely different from what he had encountered before.
Each drama is an independent little world. The WB platform extracts the story outline and puts the actors into it.
If the system hadn't defaulted to him and Gu Shijiu undergoing the trial together, the two of them would have entered separate instances of "The Great Xia Princess".
Only team members or outsiders who have just entered the Misty Immortal Realm will be placed in the same small world.
This also shows consideration for outsiders who lack experience, allowing them to band together.
Unexpectedly, Shi Qi was randomly placed in such a special location that she didn't meet Gu Shijiu until the end of the script.
Each actor, once they enter the script, may deliver a different ending.
The original main characters of this drama were the Crown Prince and Ok Joo, and the main storyline was their love story.
The platform thinks the trial scripts should be simpler; what could be easier than falling in love?
Therefore, most of the scripts for the Trial Space are idol dramas.
Unexpectedly, Gu Shijiu turned it into "The Great Xia War God".
As for Shi Qi, he plays no role in the story. Since he is in the same script as Gu Shijiu, his representative work is also "The Great Xia War God".
However, Gu Shijiu is the main female lead, while Shi Qi is an 18th-tier extra who only appears two or three times in total.
Because it is a trial script, there are countless versions of "The Great Xia Princess", but the rankings only show the top 500.
Those not on the list can only be found manually.
Of course, the platform will give newcomers some benefits, such as pushing newly generated dramas to players who may be interested in the dramas selected by big data for a limited time.
If retention rates are high and data is good, the platform will increase its promotional efforts, and many new dramas will become rising stars every year.
All of these operations were performed by AI, because humans will always have selfish motives.
Only exceptionally talented actors receive invitations from live-action production teams to film projects directed, written, and produced by live-action directors.
After all, it's not just actors who cultivate their artistic talents; other professionals in the industry also need to cultivate themselves.
The scripts they create are generally more popular, and the people involved are naturally more influential.
Of course, the vast majority of films and television dramas will be buried in the vast archives of television dramas, and no one will watch them.
Then the actors won't get any money; they'll only receive a fee for each performance, which is essentially points.
Over time, the number of scenes will decrease.
Once the AI-generated scripts are all gone, this actor's path to immortality is effectively over.
Therefore, although everyone in the Misty Immortal Realm can cultivate immortality, the number of high-level cultivators is not very large.
There were also some unlucky ones who performed poorly in the trials, lacking equipment and skills, and with low cultivation levels, they were no different from ordinary people when they died.
......
If it weren't for the drama title on the verification page, Shi Qi wouldn't have known that the drama she was acting in was now called "The Great Xia War God," so she quickly changed her search terms to that keyword.
This time, he found a section dedicated to "The Great Xia War God" within the platform's community.
Each topic can build its own circle as long as it gets enough discussion.
Shi Qi never expected that "The Great Xia War God" could actually meet this condition.
He was spotted by fellow cultivators who were strolling around inside as soon as he entered.
"Hey, actors from 'The Great Xia War God' have appeared online, come and check it out!"
A fellow cultivator sent a message in the instant chat group, but immediately lost interest after seeing Shi Qi's account.
"So this is the person the God of War has been looking for. Where's Gu Shijiu? You guys are teammates, right? @Shiqi"
"@Shiqi, please let the female lead appear!"
"@Shiqi Gu Shijiu is the actress's name. Are you guys new here? I saw that the female lead in the drama also calls herself Gu Shijiu."
"@Shiqi, will the actors do a live stream? We are currently voting for 'The Great Xia War God', and a live stream might increase the promotional impact."
......
To prevent harassment, before Gu Shijiu joined the circle, her fellow cultivators couldn't tag her.
So Shi Qi took on all the pressure.
Nobody was interested in him; everyone just wanted to see the female lead.
Gu Shijiu stayed close by to watch him operate the equipment. Although the tools were more advanced, the underlying logic was no different from what she had seen before.
She was very enthusiastic about meeting with fans: "How do you do a live stream? Don't we all need to promote our new shows?"
After a lot of fuss, Gu Shijiu opened the official live stream room for "The Great Xia War God".
"Hi everyone, I'm Gu Shijiu, the actor who plays the God of War in 'The Great Xia God of War'."
Gu Shijiu greeted everyone in a very habitual manner.
"Hello everyone, I am Shi Qi, and I play the role of Seventeen, a disciple of Medicine King Valley, in 'The Great Xia War God'."
There aren't many disciples in Medicine King Valley with names, since most of them are just extras. Originally, only the Valley Master had a role in an entire episode.
It appeared once in the storyline where Yuzhu and the prince were locked in a love-hate relationship, almost resulting in a death, and she sought help from the Valley Master.
As a result, Gu Shijiu dropped the butterfly.
Shi Qi had a feeling that maybe she was randomly assigned this role because of her name.
The AI presenter generated the questions.
"Could the creators please explain why they chose to portray the character this way?"
Gu Shijiu had no idea why: "Because... you chose the wrong basic attribute?"
This is also a perk for newcomers, given in case they can't pass the trials, and then they won't get it in the later parts of the story.
"Hahaha, I've watched over two hundred episodes of 'The Great Xia Princess,' but this is the most violent one I've ever seen."
Some people enjoy watching different versions of a show, just like playing through all the endings in a game.
"Both newcomers are so beautiful. It's a pity that Shi Qi is playing a minor role."
It was Shi Qi's turn to answer.
"I read the plot summary and there was no scene for me at all. Luckily, I was originally an extra."
Since it wasn't in the script, I wrote my own character biographies to enrich the characters' personalities and experiences.
Of course, I also want to thank Gu Shijiu. If she hadn't persisted in looking for me and eventually found me, I would have had almost no screen time in the entire film.
