Chapter 795: Shock! Ji Qingwei, Permanently Crushed (1)
Realistic dramas were not like the nonsensical xianxia fiction of “Crossing the Demon Realm.” Everything must be based on real-world scenarios.
Though Si Fuqing’s rejection annoyed the producer, it also brought him some relief.
He didn’t want to see the cast list of “Solitary Journey” mocked online for catering to top-tier celebrities by casting an academic underachiever to play a top student.
Moreover, Si Fuqing’s striking looks, which drew attention away from her excellent acting, despite the fact that she was a good actor.
“Let’s stick with our original list,” the director nodded. “Our first choice is Song Wenhua. She fits the role well, has been acting since childhood, and scored 550 on last year’s mock exams.”
A score of 550 was quite high for an art student.
The producer nodded. “She’s talented. With proper nurturing, she could be the next award-winning actress. But isn’t she taking the college entrance exam this year?”
“Yes, she’s also taking the exam this year, but she’s a year younger than Si Fuqing,” the director laughed. “She’ll surely enter the prestigious Great Xia Film Academy as the top student in academics.”
“Alright,” the producer lit a cigarette, “contact Song Wenhua’s team.”
Si Fuqing’s loss in refusing the role would soon be apparent.
Being overly proud and haughty, she would soon be surpassed by her peers.
The top-tier position in entertainment rotated every three years; how long could Si Fuqing maintain hers?
“However, I heard from Si Fuqing’s team that she has already accepted another drama,” the director frowned. “I wonder what kind of drama it is that made her give up on ‘Solitary Journey.’”
The producer, indifferent, said, “Probably some adapted ancient romance that can attract more traffic. That’s why I say her vision is short-sighted. Look at the nearly thirty-year-old top stars, which of them isn’t eager to transition to serious dramas?”
Such a good opportunity laid before Si Fuqing, but she didn’t take it. She might not get another.

During the holidays, Si Fuqing had a great time playing.
While enjoying herself, she also kept up with dramas and monitored real-time feedback from netizens.
On the sixth day of the new year, with four episodes left until the finale, Sui Yan led the demon clan to attack the Celestial Palace.
The Celestial Ruler was executed by being cut into 108 pieces, his soul crushed by Sui Yan, leaving only a sliver of his spirit.
This sliver of spirit was trapped in a soul-locking lamp, unable to dissipate, tortured day and night, neither alive nor dead.
This was the climax of the entire series, causing a rapid surge in “Crossing the Demon Realm” related posts across major social platforms.
Simultaneously, the ratings reached new heights.
Highest rating: 22.1%
Average rating: 18.9%
A true masterpiece, a genuine classic.
Netizens had been waiting for this episode for a long time.
[Finally! After so many episodes, that damn Celestial Ruler is dead.]
[Such a satisfying vengeance! Please, more strong female lead dramas like this. I’m tired of family conflicts and ethical dramas.]
[Although the revenge was satisfying, Sui Yan’s life is still tragic. She became the goddess of war in three realms, her enemies are dead, but so are her friends. I’m crying!]
Si Fuqing scrolled through the comments until she saw a post from someone she followed.
[@Mo YishanV: Has everyone calmed down? Can I go out now?]
Netizens almost died laughing at this post.
[The Award-winning Teacher Mo, stand up, don’t be so humble.]
[This drama made me realize Mo Yishan can do more than just tough-guy roles. He played the Celestial Ruler so well. The pain was so real, unlike some actors who remain expressionless even when stabbed in the heart.]
[Can you believe that in this drama, he stood out even among a cast of top-tier actors?]
[Please, entertainment industry, step up. We want genuine acting, not just special effects. Some young actors these days play emperors, but make the emperors often look like the last one in the dynasty.]
Mo Yishan rose to fame early but remained low-key and avoided hype.
Ten years ago, he was one of the top four handsome actors in ancient dramas in the Great Xia, his looks undeniable.
Indeed, as old fans said, a decade ago was the era of peak competition among actors, with top talents vying for dominance, and Mo Yishan often played supporting roles.
That Mo Yishan would rise again ten years later was only natural.
He didn’t expect the drama he joined to support Tang Haiqiu would become so popular.
Full of gratitude, he immediately called Si Fuqing to thank her.
“Teacher Mo has real talent. Talented people will never be overlooked,” Si Fuqing laughed. “Why are you thanking me, Teacher Mo?”
Mo Yishan, pleased with the compliment, laughed heartily, “I bet many production teams are seeking you out, right? Have you accepted your next role yet?”
