Yan Mu Linâs initial conclusion is this world is very tolerant to the preferences of the people. In his previous life, he does not even want to think about it. Even for the most basic adult movies, the present theaters would arrange these movies according to a schedule. As long as you are at least 18 years old, then you can buy the movie tickets by verifying your ID card. Also, voice actors has a place and room for development in the entertainment industry. Even those who acts in adult films would be recognized and sought after by the public.
In the past, voice actors were only focused on voice acting. Most of them were non-professional voice actors as there were not many professional voice actors. Not anyone could have a brokerage firm. Everyone acts in their own name in voice acting.
As said earlier, the voice-acting circle was highly against newcomers. If there were old voice actors willing to guide someone, then it would make sense, but no one wants to take the time to coach newcomers, they prefer to finish their own work.
The voice acting industryâs jobs were relatively small, and newcomers had to compete. If they werenât rejected then that is magic and is truly âjust and fairâ.
All in all, everything is rewarded.
Voice actors rely on seniority to receive work from producers. They do not sign work contracts, compensation was discussed in advance. Other basic guarantees were something you should not even think about. Unless they were some big shot, then a common voice actorâs pay was usually 200 RMB for a TV Show, and 1000 to 2000 RMB for a movie. There were no fluctuations. This was how they treated a voice actor in his world.
Now, the voice acting industry had its own circle, with the competition fierce. Just like the show business in his world, voice actingâs development was widespread. It was not as narrow before, being limited to traditional dubbing and online dubbing. Here, voice actors can have their own concerts and fans. The number of a CV dashen âs fans are no less than a superstarâs. People can become superstars in the voice acting industry, as long as their face value was high, and their dubbing skills were outstanding, then there were a lot of opportunities and powerful brokerage firms. Being famous was absolutely not a problem.
After understanding the general background of this world, Yan Mu Linâs most important task was to record the advertisement assigned by the teacher. He was a boarding student. Huaxiaâs Imperial Media Collegeâs dorm was a double room, and his room was in the performance department so there was usually not much time to go to the dorm. Yan Mu Lin has enough space to complete this task.
He looked up the Earl Watch in the Internet. What sort of people loves this watch? What age group uses it the most? There was always a story behind it. Each advertisement had its own meaning, and each item had something it represents. Voice acting wasnât simply reading the advertisementâs script out loud. You must make the listeners feel the sorrow, joy, hurt, or any other emotion contained in the words that had to be shown in a short period of time. The CV also needs to fully understand and experience the characterâs emotions, then utilize their language and voiceâs plasticity to match the character, which would make the character more full and three-dimensional.
Since the ad was not currently running on major advertisement platforms, Yan Mu Lin and the others did not know its details. They could only try to understand through the short script. Compared to his fellow students, Yan Mu Lin was going through the source material at the slowest time. He attached a huge amount of importance to this advertisementâs recording, unlike his other classmates. Right away, they thought that they would not be able to choose. They just had to read the script in what the employers believed was the best sound.
Maybe this was because todayâs CVs are impetuous. They think that their appearances and finding the best brokerage firm was the most important thing. They did not place importance on studying voice acting and thought it was enough.
Compared to Yan Mu Lin, who worked hard on learning how to vocalize, how to use his vocal cords, and how to change his voice, they were naturally too inferior. At this time, Yan Mu Lin did not know that this was their normal state. The time given by the teacher was three days, but the students felt that a three-day preparation was too much. However, Yan Mu Lin thought it was too short. He still has not adjusted to this world, he had to change his views. He could use self-hypnosis to quickly blend in.
Yan Mu Linâs current appearance was somewhat different from his previous self. He was much better than he used to be. His body together with being constantly on the move made it completely different, This body was good, and it possessed inherent advantages. There were no problems with his timbre, figure, and height. Yan Mu Lin was very satisfied with his circumstances, coupled with his hard-earned knowledge, there were no problems in bringing his voiceâs evolution to another height. He also searched for the most influential CV on the Internet. Indeed, talent and hard work was necessary to reach that kind of level. Also, other people did not have the kind of rich experience he had.
Itâs hard to predict if he had a future in his favorite occupation, but this doesnât mean he would give up.
In order to record an acceptable material, Yan Mu Lin needed a good recording studio. The schoolâs recording studio was open to students at 9 AM to 10 PM every day. In order to avoid Sheng Xia Xiao and his lackeys, Yan Mu Lin chose a recording studio online. He only needed to use it for half an hour, it wouldnât delay him.
A good recording studio was reserved according to time. After Yan Mu Lin saw the deposit, he was not very worried. His mother was a well-known actress. His living expenses were also very impressive. The original Yan Mu Lin did not have any social capability, in addition to eating and clothing, he did not spend his money.
Iâll be spending your money now, and in the future Iâll spare no effort to accomplish your dream, okay?
Even if he had enough money to spend, Yan Mu Lin, who was used to being thrifty, rented the schoolâs public bicycles. You shouldnât look down on it just because it was for public use, itâs quality was comparable to mountain bikes. One can imagine how good the government was to the students. This level was absolutely the style of a capitalist country.
Huaxia maintained the traditional constitutional monarchy, but the parliament has the fnal say. The imperial family was something like a figure for the outside world. It was actually the Chinese prime minister ruling the country. The real leader of this country.
It was currently autumn. Several leaves floated as Yan Mu Lin passed through Lulin Road. He cycled and followed the navigation to reach his destination. Yan Mu Lin felt a sense of satisfaction breathing the fresh air. Though, he still could not help but sigh, he hasnât been this carefree for so many years now. In order to survive, he had to work part-time at a TV station for a free dinner.
It took him nearly half an hour to reach his destination. The school was not far from the city and it was easy to go anywhere.
The city was beautiful, the government made a lot of efforts to keep the city green. Green was seen everywhere, making it comfortable for the people.
Although the Imperial Media College was not in the city center, it wasnât that far. He followed the road signs and immediately located the recording studio.
It was in a secluded place, there was not much people. When Yan Mu Lin walked in, he saw a dejected man sitting in the front desk. He looked listless, holding an unlit cigarette. It looked like he could fall asleep any time.
Yan Mu Lin came forward to explain his purpose in coming. The man flipped through the records and said lazily, âThe first room on the left, thereâs a sound engineer waiting for you.â
The boss is so carefree. Yan Mu Lin began to doubt whether this recording studio would be great. He had no choice but to keep up the â since Iâve come, then I should be comfortable â attitude. When he walked into the room, Yan Mu Linâs first thought was that it was better than the schoolâs. The sound engineer was a 30-year-old woman, her work attitude differed from the boss. She smiled and looked at Yan Mu Linâs coat. âYou are from Imperial Media College?â
Yan Mu Lin smiled but did not answer. He cleared his throat and said, âCan I start recording?â
Voice actors arenât singers, they did not need headphones to listen to sounds. He only had to record the words he had been repeating hundreds of times in his mind. The sound engineer in the control room gave Yan Mu Lin a signal for him to start recording.
Yan Mu Lin recorded different materials in different voices using his own ideas. There was the gorgeous type, the gentle type, and the mature type. After half an hour of recording, the audio copy was done. Yan Mu Lin was satisfied with his work, he used three kinds of record because he was not pleased with his voice. It lacked exercise, his vocal cords were not fully opened and not a lot of sounds could be displayed.
Now that he was a newcomer, he must start with imitation as his vocal cords have not been stretched. Just like in martial arts, a personâs ligament which hasnât been stretched canât complete difficult moves. If they forced themselves to do it, then it would harm their fundamentals. Therefore, he did not dare to do exaggerated sounds and tried to figure out what he can use.
The fees were paid through the Internet so Yan Mu Lin left the recording studio after the session.
What he did not know was that after he left, the female recording engineer talked to the drowsy owner, âItâs a newcomer with potential. Why donât you consider recommending him to your brother?â
The boss said sleepily, âNowadays, there are a lot of singers with potential. Iâm not interested.â
The sound engineer shook her head, âHe is not a singer. Heâs a voice actor, and quite a serious one too.â
The boss slightly opened his eyes at that, but closed them again. The child did look clean and handsome. Theyâll have an opportunity to meet again.
After returning to school, Yan Mu Lin listened to his recorded audio several times before sending it to the teacher. Without a doubt, he was the last one who passed his work.
However, after the teacher listened to his audio, his first reaction was not praise but suspicion. Was Yan Mu Lin looking for something? Did he cheat?
