Chapter 144: Her Voice Sounds Coquettish

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Apart from that, Gu Yuwu had another reason for calling Lin Xiaowan.

The fantasy drama that Lin Xiaowan had a cameo in was about to be broadcasted; it should air after the new year. Although it had not aired yet, it was already quite popular. Six episodes would be broadcasted every week, and it would not take long for her scenes to appear.

“Alright. I’ll experience how it feels to see myself on television then…”

“I’ll send you a small clip of your scenes so you can listen to the domineering voice of the voice actress!”

The clip was not very long, but it took several minutes before it was sent.

Lin Xiaowan felt slightly strange when she saw herself. She also felt like she did not fit in with the style of the main characters. Her costumes were elaborate and exquisite. However, this was only normal since she played the character of the only goddess left in the world. The role did not require any acting skills from her. It was fine as long as she did not make any big mistakes.

When Lin Xiaowan heard the dubbing for her lines, she fell silent.

‘Why does it sound so dramatic?’

Gu Yuwu seemed to have calculated the time before she sent her a message.

[Gu Yuwu: Are you done watching it? What do you think?]

Although Lin Xiaowan felt that the dubbing was out of character, she knew it was only because she was not used to it. At the same time, she also felt slightly guilty for not being able to say her lines.

[Lin Xiaowan: It looks good. My performance seems… okay?]

Gu Yuwu was not stingy with her praise.

[Gu Yuwu: I think your performance is good. This is the advantage of having no experience. You don’t look like you’re acting. Hahaha.]

[Gu Yuwu: Do you feel like dubbing is incongruent with your face?]

[Lin Xiaowan: What do you mean?]

Lin Xiaowan did not understand the term.

Gu Yuwu did not say anything and only sent her another clip. It was the same as before, but the voice was now different. It was much more childish, not as calm and domineering as before. She sounded like the girl next door.

Lin Xiaowan thought the voice matched her appearance, especially her face that still had a little baby fat. However…

[Lin Xiaowan: Don’t you think the voice sounds a little young? After all, the character is that of a goddess, and she’s lived for so many years. It’s impossible for her to sound like a young and lively girl, right?]

Although Lin Xiaowan had forgotten most of the scenes of the goddess, she still remembered the major key points. 𝗯𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝗼𝗿𝐠

[Lin Xiaowan: Moreover, the goddess lives in the divine world alone. She’s lonely with no one to talk to or play with. Although the second voice matches my appearance better, it doesn’t seem to match the character.]

[Gu Yuwu: We had a few voice actresses say those lines, but we weren’t very satisfied. These two are the best. *sigh*]

[Gu Yuwu: Why don’t you try to say the lines?]

Lin Xiaowan was shocked when she saw the second message and wondered if Gu Yuwu was joking.

[Lin Xiaowan: Huh? Are you serious? I’ll probably sound like a little maidservant that the goddess kidnapped and brought to the divine world to play with.]

Lin Xiaowan refused several times, but in the end, she could not say no to Gu Yuwu. In exchange, Gu Yuwu promised to help her cover up in front of Huo Zheng when she ate spicy sticks. With this, she was successfully lured into the recording studio.

In the recording studio.

The voice actress who dubbed the goddess’ character was also present.

When Lin Xiaowan found out that the two contrasting voices she heard before were from the same person, she was filled with admiration. With a professional in front of her, she became even more embarrassed, which affected her performance.

In the end, Gu Yuwu brought her to an empty studio and passed the script to Lin Xiaowan before she said, “Alright, try doing this alone. If you don’t understand anything, let me know, understand? Make a signal. I can see you from outside.”

“Okay!” Lin Xiaowan replied, holding the script.

Now that she was alone in the recording booth, she was much more relaxed. She flipped through the script and recalled the feeling of being a goddess. While she quickly went through the plot, the recording device was already on.

When Lin Xiaowan started, she spoke slowly, afraid of making mistakes. However, when she spoke, her pitch would rise a little and fall, making her sound very coquettish.

She did not feel anything when she was saying her lines. When she was done, she gestured to Gu Yuwu, looking embarrassed.

Gu Yuwu could not help but laugh when she listened to Lin Xiaowan. She put her arm around Lin Xiaowan’s shoulders as she said, “The voice sounds right this time. However, the aura of a goddess isn’t there. It’s just as you said…”

However, when the voice actress heard it, she had her own opinion. She said, “I think Miss Lin’s habit of speaking in a high-pitch tone enriches the goddess’ character. The contrast between the voice and the character is quite good.”

Lin Xiaowan waved her hands and said, “No, no, you can just address me as Xiaowan.”

After all, the other party was a professional and a senior.

The voice actress was very gentle and magnanimous. She said kindly, “Now that I’ve met you and heard you say the lines, 1 kind of understand the problem with the previous dubbing. I have an idea. I’ll try recording the lines again.”

The voice actress practiced a few times before she started recording. She did not imitate Lin Xiaowan completely and only drew inspiration from it.

Lin Xiaowan did not understand anything. She only felt that the other party was really amazing.

This version did not sound lively or young, but it was calm and cold with a hint of arrogance. However, after talking to the priestess, she sounded different.

Lin Xiaowan did not know how to describe it. In any case, she did not sound so high and mighty anymore.

On the other hand, Gu Yuwu still felt that voice did not match the character. However, she had to admit that the latest version was the most pleasing to the ears so far..
