Now that she had made up her mind to pick up her old profession, Siyu wouldn"t have to worry about the contract matter any further and everything would be all right. The most crucial thing now was to acc.u.mulate a.s.sets. Without the support of long-term creativity, what would she use to talk to others about conditions?
She easily opened Zhou Siyu"s Weibo. As the previous world"s popular manhua artist, Siyu knew about the function of fans very well. She used to be Weibo"s most favorite person. Today"s online manhua platform was still starting out and she"ll have to start all over again. But, wasn"t this the best opportunity for her?
Besides publishing the serial on the platform, from time to time she could release several chibi comic-strips on Weibo. This will progressively attract more fans and then direct them to the platform. In the age of the internet, strength was the foundation and popularity was equal to not being underestimated by others. Siyu"s target was to gain more money and part ways with that talent agency. Of course, she needed to consider it thoroughly.
Logging into the supporting female lead"s Weibo, Siyu skimmed through quickly and was simply speechless. It may or may not be because of her personality, but Zhou Siyu"s Weibo was full of negative things. It"s unbearable to look at. Siyu didn"t want to delete the remaining traces of the original Zhou Siyu in the world. Therefore, she decisively made a new account.
Siyu continued to use her previous manhua artist name "Koi". However, after thinking about it, she added a prefix and finally changed it into @A Koi That Can Live For Another Five Hundred Years.
Staring at this new name, Siyu nodded her head in satisfaction. Even though her sickness wasn"t simple, but she had a strong will in a disabled body! She will definitely be able to live until the end!
After encouraging herself with full confidence, Siyu found herself a pencil and paper. Her shooting experience during the day made her feel very fresh and she was suddenly inspired.
Because of the lack of props, the whole characters were drawn into small-sized chibis: The little girl who just entered the modeling world encountered a fraud company. But, through several coincidences, what she got turned into a real contract. This contract was made for fun by a group of young masters. They often asked the little girl to complete a number of outrageous pictures. As a result, the little girl"s modeling career was completely messed up. She was forced to play games with this group of rich second generations. Gradually, she and these people had deeper interchanges…….. [T/N: ehem, ehem, implicit affair detected]
"The great method of Shura field1! Simply named it 《Fashion Strategy》and it already sounds good…."
The advantage of chibi comic-strip was its short length. It wasn"t very difficult to read and had a light tone. Siyu was happy to draw; her imagination was getting bigger and better. Unwittingly, she had completed three chapters in one breath. When her body gave out a warning signal, Siyu suddenly realized that it was already late at night.
The original Zhou Siyu had been sick since childhood and never dared to stay up late. She must sleep before ten o"clock. However, for her, she was used to staying at home for the sake of catching up with the deadline. It"s a common occurrence for her to work overnight and sleep in the daytime. Thus, her body was unable to adjust to the disrupted circadian rhythm for a while, causing her to run into the bathroom and vomit blood again.
As she vomited and vomited, she actually started to get used to it and even thought that it"s pretty healthy. After all, she felt light after vomiting and she didn"t have any sore waist or legs. [T/N: from bending over while vomiting]
It"s just…. Siyu gazed into the mirror, recalling the color she saw on top of others" heads during the day. Most of the people either had a light pink or gray. Only Yu Ling and Zhang Chao had a deeper reddish-orange color. Could it be that the color difference represented the person"s certain special quality?
Because of the lack of evidence, Siyu didn"t dare to make a presumptuous conclusion. She just secretly decided to pay more attention.
After cleaning herself up, Siyu sat back in front of the computer. Now, she still hadn"t had enough money to buy a professional scanner. She could only use her mobile phone to take a picture of the drawn comic-strip. After that, she posted the first chapter on Weibo.
After thinking about it, she smoothly tagged Qu Man"s official account. The amount of those who followed the official account was only a little more than a thousand people. Obviously, it hadn"t been long since it was created. Siyu believed that they would definitely see it.
…..
On this side, Siyu fell asleep early. Who would know that at the other side of the hospital, there was a person madly searching for her.
Ji Lin was sitting inside the nanny car outside of the hospital. He looked a little bit nervous. From time to time looking out of the window. When he saw his a.s.sistant Xiao Ai jogging from the hospital, his eyes suddenly brightened.
" She… how was she ?" Xiao Ai hadn"t stepped into the car yet and Ji Lin couldn"t wait to ask, " what did the doctor say?"
a.s.sistant Xiao Ai was a bob-haired girl in her twenties. Although she wasn"t old, she was older than Ji Lin by two whole years. She ran all the way and was awfully thirsty. She took a water bottle out from the back seat and drank vigorously. After this, she finally relaxed and said: " I asked the doctor. The doctor said the person was okay. It was a physical deficiency and she had already returned home."
She had vomited blood and the doctor still said that she was okay? Ji Lin barely swallowed this question back. He turned his face away and low spiritedly said: "Oh."
He tried hard to be indifferent. But his anxious hands betrayed him, showing that his heart wasn"t as calm as he looked.
Xiao Ai secretly glanced at Ji Lin. Even though Ji Lin debuted when he was fourteen and she has been his a.s.sistant for four or five years, she had never seen Ji Lin lose his self-control like today. If she hadn"t arrived in time, Ji Lin would have rushed into the hospital — you know, Ji Lin is now a national idol and he might be photographed going to the hospital searching for the little model. Even jumping into the Yellow River can"t get him clean2!
Xiao Ai didn"t understand. Although Ji Lin was young and seemed careless and casual, but he had always been very calm and sensible. Since joining the industry, there was basically nothing for the agency and a.s.sistant to worry about. It was unlikely for such things as gossips to happen. In private, Xiao Ai even heard that Ji Lin was actually a rich second generation. Entering the entertainment circle was purely for fun….. Therefore, how on earth was he related to that 28-line3 little model?
1: People usually use “Shura field” to describe a tragic battlefield; later it was extended to mean “a person in a difficult situation to do an absolute struggle”
2: getting inexorably mixed up, mired in controversy, or in deep trouble. In this context, it meant once photographed Ji Lin would be mixed up with a lot of troubles ( gossip, scandals, fans rioting, etc).
3: artists who are insignificant. ( even worse than the not well-known 18-line model)
