Chapter 471: Chapter 469: The Short Dramas Begin Filming

The few short drama scripts Jiang Qin provided were all ones she wrote herself in her spare time, based on works she had seen in her previous life.

The most important things for a short drama are being packed with satisfying moments and having a novel concept.

So, the five scripts were as follows:

One was a supernatural story about a student who travels to a parallel dimension and discovers it’s overrun with ghosts and monsters.

Humans possess the ability to invite gods to possess their bodies, but the records of the East Country’s gods had long been wiped out by disaster.

So, the people of the East Country could only become believers of the gods of Western countries, striving to earn their approval to gain the ability of divine possession.

The female protagonist, however, had traveled from the East Country of ancient history. She was a history student from the ancient East Country, well-versed in all its divine legends.

What followed was her, once considered useless, completely humiliating those who had once discriminated against her.

From her own country to the international stage, she staged a meteoric rise, attracting numerous males who wanted to become her partner along the way.

The second was a stepfather story.

In an era where people couldn’t get enough to eat or warm clothes to wear, a family’s female and all her partners died, leaving only a few children behind.

To ensure someone would look after the children, the deceased female’s friends and relatives pooled their money to offer a high betrothal gift, hoping to marry a partner for her posthumously.

The male protagonist’s family was in dire straits. He had younger siblings who needed to go to school, his mother had died early, and his uncles had all either married into other families or left.

Only his father was left to support the family alone.

So, for the sake of that betrothal money, he married into their family and became a stepfather.

What followed was the story of him becoming a loving father and provider. With his arrival, the children’s lives clearly took a new turn.

Not only could they eat their fill and wear warm clothes, but they could also occasionally have a bite of meat.

After the economic reforms, the male protagonist used his cooking skills to set up a street stall and began building his fortune.

During this time, many females took a liking to him. They didn’t mind that he had been married before and wanted to marry him into their homes, but the male protagonist refused them all.

Later, under his care, the children and his younger siblings all grew up to be successful.

One became a soldier, one a doctor, another a teacher, one entered the entertainment industry, and another became a painter.

He himself also became a renowned entrepreneur and was named by the state as one of the ten most inspiring role models.

The whole world praised his profound selflessness.

For a sum of betrothal money, he had devoted his entire life without complaint or regret.

’With a plot like this,’ Jiang Qin thought, ’both males and females will probably feel incredibly satisfied after watching it.’

The third was a story centered on "inner thoughts."

This one was set in the current Interstellar era.

The protagonist is the true heiress, a female who, in her previous life, was disdained by her family even after being welcomed back, all because of her C-level spiritual power.

Meanwhile, the fake heiress, who possessed A-level spiritual power, was adored by the family.

So, upon her rebirth, she was done with it all. She no longer wanted to yearn for familial affection, nor did she want to be jealous of the fake heiress.

And that male who didn’t love her? She didn’t want to chase after him anymore either.

After all, she was a female. Even with a low Spiritual Power Level, she could legally have several husbands.

Why waste her life over a man who was out of her league?

So, this time around, she praised and practically drooled over every male she met in her mind.

Little did she know, everyone could hear her inner thoughts. Not only did they learn many secrets from her, but they also managed to avoid disasters.

But for some reason, no one could speak of it, so they could only find excuses to repay her.

The fake heiress, however, couldn’t hear the inner thoughts, so she just found everything inexplicable.

Her loving adoptive parents suddenly wanted to kick her out. Her childhood sweetheart, who had sworn to protect her, abruptly cut all ties. And all the other young ladies she was usually on good terms with became her enemies.

Even the high-society ladies who wanted to make her their goddaughter all went to curry favor with the true heiress instead...

You could say the true heiress got everything she wanted with ease, without even lifting a finger.

It was a complete power fantasy, perfectly suited for the short drama format.

The fourth was a "Sky Screen" story.

The fifth was a rebirth and revenge story.

...

When Manager Jiang received the scripts, she felt that the sun had risen far too quickly that day.

She had never realized she started work so early!

So early that she hadn’t even had time to read the last two scripts. But after finishing the first three, she was absolutely buzzing with excitement!

’Plots this interesting have to be filmed immediately! And they need to finish filming as soon as possible, because I can’t wait to buy and watch them!’

This led to all the staff at Muzhao Entertainment Company noticing that their manager seemed a little hyper today.

She was a whirlwind of activity, contacting teams, negotiating collaborations, and so on.

In just one day, they were already discussing filming dates.

Since they were vertical-screen short dramas, the sets didn’t need to be quite so perfect.

So, on the third day after the deal was made, filming for the first script was set to begin!

The speed was so astonishing that even Jiang Qin was surprised.

’But faster is better,’ she thought. ’After all, I still need to record the data.’

However, the ones even more surprised than her were the netizens:

[Wow, Qin Bao just got home and she’s already working?? She’s so diligent.]

[We just had the opening ceremonies for two horror films, and now there’s another one? She’s a total model worker!]

[I recommend everyone in the entertainment industry learn from Qin Bao and join the grind like this. It’ll stop everyone from getting bored to death and developing cases of ennui.]

[It’s definitely gotten better since I found a spiritual outlet. I used to get so bored I’d lose the will to live.]

[This is awesome! It’s an absolute feast!!]

[It’s probably related to the war. Ever since "Rebirth Night" was released, Qin Bao has been working super hard.]

[True, before, Qin Bao mostly did whatever she felt like. Now she’s starting to really push her schedule.]

[Jiang Qin doesn’t say much, but whenever she’s needed, she never shirks her duty.]

[Among all the females frantically promoting how patriotic they are, she’s a breath of fresh air. All action, no talk.]

...

Xie Lili noticed these heated discussions. After some thought, she decided to have someone guide the conversation and steer it away from this one point of praise.

As everyone knows, over-hyping something can easily lead to backlash from the general public.

So she was afraid that rival companies had bought the comments, trying to "kill her with praise."

If she were put on a pedestal, these netizens might start to morally blackmail her.

That was not what they wanted to see.

Because the scripts hadn’t finished filming yet, Jiang Qin’s side didn’t have a platform for promotion.

The Interstellar People were even less aware that a new piece of software had quietly launched on the market.

After all, with so many people developing new software every day, who would pay attention to a small, freshly released app?

It wasn’t until a month later, when Jiang Qin posted an update and started promoting the Green Fruit Fruit app, that everyone realized she had also developed a new platform.

The Jiang Fans, of course, immediately went to download it to show their support. A number of curious onlookers went as well.

Then, everyone discovered that the app’s homepage featured five dramas.

Not only were the cover images beautiful, but the promotional taglines were also exceptionally captivating...
