Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled-Chapter 931 - 694 Group Purchase and Childhood Martial Arts Dream_2

It shows what kind of status An’an holds in the entertainment industry.

She wanted to be a martial arts girl and didn’t really want to rely on her family’s status, but was still specially arranged by Zhang Wanyi.

An’an’s every move in Guangzhou was actually observed by her and Chu Qiuyan. It wasn’t that they had any other intentions; they just had to fulfill the appropriate responsibility of care.

The reason for not filming long dramas was primarily because they took too much time.

Simply didn’t have that kind of time, and short dramas are noticeably quicker.

The original model of short dramas is particularly simple, which is small investment, quick and efficient.

Relying on an extremely emotional rhythm to quickly capture the audience.

This approach has left current TV dramas completely at a loss.

However, it was completely different after An’an came.

Zhang Wanyi directly made instructions from the top level for any short drama she was involved in.

There must be a top team, big investment, and the most professional actors must be cast.

Short dramas have actually made many female stars famous, such as Xu Yizhen, Li Muchen, Ma Qiuyuan, and others.

Short dramas are divided into vertical and horizontal screen types.

Horizontal screen dramas relatively have bigger investments, and so does their influence, but vertical screen dramas are more captivating for viewers.

An’an’s first drama was "Fu Hao."

She was also the wife of King Wu Ding in the late Shang Dynasty and the first female military commander in the nation’s recorded history.

She led military campaigns multiple times and consecutively defeated over twenty small countries like North Tufang, Southern Yi Country, and Southern Ba Fang, leaving immortal war merits for the Shang Dynasty.

Such a figure certainly qualifies for a big female lead drama.

Moving it to a short drama, if the investment is small, the scenes can’t be captured.

If the investment is big, with the return model of short dramas, you’d lose so much even your own mother wouldn’t recognize you.

And then...the entire short drama industry was shocked.

The "Fu Hao" short drama announced an investment of over a billion, setting a historical record in the short drama field.

Not only that, but it also invited the most famous long drama director for filming and paired countless well-known female supporting roles.

Even Zhao Liying, the queen of TV dramas, came.

In the field of short dramas, that’s really a shocking Purple Gold Hammer.

Anyone with a position in long dramas would never degrade themselves to come and shoot short dramas.

But now, not only did a top director come, but numerous famous actors also joined.

Even someone like Zhao Liying, the queen of drama circles, came.

At five years old, Little An’an once said that when she grew up, she wanted to be an unparalleled martial artist.

With her identity, even the most unreliable dreams would have a large group of people helping her achieve them.

In late September, Chen Pingsheng’s grandfather passed away.

Chen Pingsheng took a private plane directly from Magic City to rush to his rural hometown, and An’an also took a helicopter back to Sha City from Guangzhou.

Their relatives, no matter where they were from across the land, all came back now.

Grandfather’s departure was considered a joyful funeral, also a part of the natural cycle of life and death.

The family held a large funeral banquet, and the whole village came to bid farewell. Chen Pingsheng personally carried the coffin.

Time flies. He still remembers the days he often drank with his grandfather in Magic City.

Now his grandfather is gone, and his grandmother had also left long ago.

The village banquet lasted three days, but no amount of grandeur could conceal the sorrowful emotions.

By the end of September, Chen Pingsheng returned to Magic City.

And An’an went back to Guangzhou; her university courses were still very relaxed, and An’an had always had a martial arts dream since childhood.

Now it is gradually being realized.

Chen Pingsheng had just finished a phone call with Zhang Wanyi, and after learning some news about An’an, he didn’t express much.

Compared to An’an, Er Piya, who is extravagantly unmatched, obviously gives him more headaches.

Er Piya had absolutely no awareness of this; she always firmly believed that she was the cutest one in the family.

Clearly grown up on Cutie Pops.

Er Piya had no Second Princess image, crossing her legs, shaking non-stop: "Dad, I heard that Sis went to be a martial arts girl?"

"What, do you also want to be a heroine? Do you have her skills?"

"Well... I admit I’m a tad short."

"Do you call that a tad short? You’re practically immovable."

"Dad, we don’t talk like that."

Er Piya, in middle school, still hadn’t slimmed down; Chen Pingsheng seriously suspected she would always be this chubby.

"I got fat with my abilities; is it necessary to lose weight? Besides, Sis used to be fatter than me and slimmed down after starting high school."

"You might have misunderstood; she slimmed in middle school, while you got three circles fatter in middle school."

With a few humphs... Er Piya, unhappy, said she wanted to lose weight, then went online shopping for a ton of top-notch fitness equipment to put at home.

It seemed like just having these things there would make her slim.

But it turned out she never used what she bought; no surprise there.

After two days, Er Piya found she still hadn’t slimmed down; she went to ask the senior employees.

How to slim down, the answer being to eat less and move more.

She found she couldn’t do either; if eating more and moving less could result in slimming, she would definitely be the slimmest one.

Reversing it was not quite feasible.

Unknowingly, Er Ya was already 12 years old.

Unlike her was probably Little Third, Chen Lu, having a blast playing games.

Anyone calling him was ineffective.

"Pingsheng, did An’an tell you she’s not coming home for the National Day?"

"She did, said she’s staying in Guangzhou to film."

"Sigh... she’s really grown up, not coming home even for National Day. If next time she suddenly brings home a boyfriend, we might just be shocked."

Song Yanxi said with a bit of worry.

"Don’t worry, An’an won’t be that foolish. If she brings a boyfriend home, it would certainly be someone she’s confident in."

"Hopefully, that’s the case!"

The couple started worrying about their daughter’s love life again.

Each age has its own troubles. Before, they worried about her not doing well in the third year of high school, and after university, they worried about her being deceived by others.

They really didn’t know when they could completely stop worrying.

"We parents also need to relax; it’s truly unnecessary to worry about everything."

Chen Pingsheng said: "After a while, I’ll go live in Guangzhou for some time."

"Why are you going there?"

"Of course, to accompany our daughter and see how her filming is going. I might also act as an extra."

"Come on, at this age, still going to be an extra, got nothing better to do?"

"Not really, but once An’an graduates from college, even wanting to be her extra might not be possible."

Chen Pingsheng had his own thoughts; he just wanted to be part of every phase of his daughter’s growing up.

The four-year university seemed long, but at their age, it was just the blink of an eye.

Song Yanxi thought about it and also planned to take some time to go to Guangzhou.

During the National Holiday, Chen Pingsheng still had no time, so he went to Guangzhou afterward.

An’an had been filming there with Jiang Tang and her two university roommates.

The advantage of a big investment is grand scenes; during battles, it’s not just seven or eight extras pretending to fight.

Instead, it’s hundreds or thousands of extras, giving a bit of a war effect.

When Chen Pingsheng went to see his daughter, Zhang Wanyi came to meet him.

"Chen, you didn’t even tell me you were coming to Guangzhou."

"I’m just here to see my daughter, not for work, didn’t want to bother you!"

"What a bother."

Zhang Wanyi said: "Chen, it’s been a long time since I worked beside you. You should at least come and sit with me when you visit Guangzhou."

"Forget it, don’t let anyone know I’m here, I just want to spend time with my daughter. By the way, how’s her drama going?"

"Very well, An’an’s skills are quite good; she has a foundation in action scenes, and within the circle, very few at her age can compare."

"Alright, An’an had a martial arts dream since childhood, and she’s only realizing it in college; it’s been a long wait anyway."

To be serious, Zhang Wanyi has seen An’an grow up, over so many years.

From An’an’s primary school to middle school, then high school, now university.

After she realizes her childhood martial arts dream, she will probably leave the entertainment industry.

But this process may take one year, or maybe two or three years.

Anyway, it will be before she graduates from university.
