My Extraordinary Achievements

Chapter 247 Childlike

“Yes, of course.”

Director Xu and professor Di were eager to see the performance. They had watched Meng Fan’s voice dubbing clips and recognized his abilities. The two were even shocked by his skills, but they had never heard him live; they wanted a taste of the real thing.

And these scenes were difficult indeed. They wanted to see how well he would perform.

“Let me set the mood.”

Meng Fan paced around, running through the seven characters from “The Message.” He then approached the microphone and began with Wang Zhiwen’s role.

As soon as he spoke, Director Xu and Professor Di’s eyes lit up. They could immediately hear the role played by Ying Da, their eyes lighting up even more. When Zhang Hanyu’s character came on, they could no longer remain in their seats. When Zhou Xun and Li Bingbing’s voices came on, they almost screamed out loud. Eyes wide open, they were in disbelief.

In the end, special agent Takeda’s voice, played by Huang Jiaozhu could be heard. There was no questioning the difficulties involved in imitating a Japanese accent speaking Chinese, but to be able to speak Japanese at such an advanced level — although they couldn’t tell if his pronunciation was accurate or not — he was utterly amazing.

After “The Message,” Meng Fan organized his roles, and took a five-minute break before beginning the dialogue from “Da Zhai Men.”

Afterwards, Meng Fan sat down and let out a long sigh of relief.

That was way too hard.

He’d known of the difficulties during rehearsal, but after performing with everything he had, Meng Fan felt as if his body had been hollowed out; he was empty of energy, and emotion as well.

Especially after Uncle Three’s monologue of “refusing to be a slave of the nation” while chewing on a cigar and sipping wine. This segment alone took enough heart-wrenching effort, but Meng Fan had to continue with Mr. Li Xuejian’s concluding scream that could induce tears for the next decade: “Hey Uncle Three, a good name will be passed down forever!”

He took several deep breaths before realizing the room had gone quiet. Aside from the sound of his own breathing, the room was silent. He raised his head to see Director Xu, Professor Di, Bai Zhi, Su Qingcen, and all the staff members with tears in their eyes. Either they had been drawn in by the plot as they had sad and dull looks on their faces, or they were touched by Meng Fan’s voice acting skills. Or perhaps… they were frozen in time.

“Director Xu, Professor Di, my two clips were okay, right?

Meng Fan knew the result was obviously very good, and after asking, he didn’t wait for a response. It would seem too superficial. Instead, he said: “Sister Bai still has to rehearse her individual component, so I’m going to grab some food. I’ll come back and rehearse the collaboration with her afterwards.”

What else could the director and his assistant do? They nodded, clearly still embedded in the story.

“Bai Zhi, what kind of monster did you bring!”

Seeing Meng Fan leave with Su Qingcen, Professor Di wiped her eyes, a smile finally forming on her face. “He’s a reincarnation of some old soul, right? He’s so young! His skills are exquisite, full of emotion, and he’s already reached a godlike level of vocal intimacy and technicality. You could hear the strengths, weaknesses, thickness, fragility, authenticity, and falsehood… And there’s nothing else to say about the flexibility of his voice, ah! Simply formidable! His voice is blessed!”

Professor Di was generally a docile person, but this time she spoke with genuine shock.

She then couldn’t help but ask Bai Zhi to show their collaboration scene. The anticipation built up, along with her love for their talent.

After the shock wore off, Professor Di quickly calmed her heartbeat and began to guide Bai Zhi. Based on voice acting abilities, Bai Zhi was the real raid boss of this show!

“Do you want to head to the street food area?”

Meng Fan, who followed Su Qingcen’s arrangements, suddenly paused. He was speechless: “Although I really want to eat street food, but you… Bro, if you go, the entire street is going to be congested, ah! What will you eat, ah!”

Su Qingcen glared at Meng Fan. Shan Jin bro is Shan Jin bro, but the audacity to call me bro…”I’ve never been, but I have an idea. Besides, I have you don’t I? It’ll be okay.”

Shan Jin bro is Shan Jin bro. You have the audacity to just call me bro, ah! Su Qingcen glanced at Meng Fan, glared at him, and explained: “I’ve never been there, but I have an idea. Besides, I have you, don’t I? It’ll be okay.”

Shan Jin bro is Shan Jin bro. Who are you calling bro, ah! Su Qingcen glanced at Meng Fan, glared at him, and explained: “I’ve never been there, but I have an idea. Besides, I have you, don’t I? It’ll be okay.”

Shan Jin boss is Shan Jin boss. Who are you calling big brother, ah! Su Qingcen glanced at Meng Fan, glared at him, and explained: “I’ve never been there, but I have an idea. Besides, I have you, don’t I? It’ll be okay.”

Mountain Bro is Mountain Bro. Who are you calling Big Brother, ah! Su Qingcen glanced at Meng Fan, glared at him, and explained: “I’ve never been there, but I have an idea. Besides, I have you, don’t I? It’ll be okay.”

Mountain Boss is Mountain Boss. Who are you calling big brother, ah! Su Qingcen glanced at Meng Fan, glared at him, and explained: “I’ve never been there, but I have an idea. Besides, I have you, don’t I? It’ll be okay.”

“You’ll have trouble with me around,” Meng Fan responded. “Look at me, I’m a thorn in anyone’s eye no matter where I stand. Didn’t you say that the entire country knows me? At least, people will recognize me on the way there. Once I draw their attention, where are you going to hide? Don’t tell me makeup does wonders? That’s a lie. You have so many goddamn fans!”

“You’re so annoying. Listen to me.” Su Qing Cen glared at Meng Fan again. “I know I can’t hide you looking like that, but because of this, you can divert the attention away from me! And aren’t you a streamer? I’ll just put on some makeup and a face mask and pretend to be your videographer. You can boldy walk around like you own it. So who’s going to notice me, your cameraman?”

As soon as Su Qingcen realized her strategy was solid, her entire person shook with excitement. Thinking of the scene when all eyes were on Meng Fan streaming, she herself could be hiding while secretly watching everyone else. This kind of exhilaration was almost too much for popular idols like Su Qingcen, who was inconvenienced going anywhere!

Meng Fan was dumbstruck upon hearing it. “Wait, your strategy is a bit too naive isn’t it, bro? And I want to ask you, how exactly do you plan to eat with a face mask on?”

Su Qingcen paused for a moment and became unsettled. “We can deal with it when we get there… Hey, I finally convinced Sister Jing to let me go out on my own, don’t ruin my mood. Just pretend I’m not hungry, and that I’m just here to be your videographer, okay?”

“Well, if you insist. What more can I say?”

Meng Fan looked at the mischief gleaming in Su Qingcen’s eyes and felt his head throb. No matter how he looked at it, she was like a caged canary. It made sense if you thought about it. For someone like her, it must have been ages since she last enjoyed the excitement of walking through a crowd. Only this kind of ‘talent’ would get such a kick from hiding in the dark and watching regular people go about their day. “Everything is fine and well until someone recognizes you.”

“What are you afraid of, you’re with me! Can’t a lad as hardcore as you protect me? Either way, as long as my safety isn’t compromised, I’ll be OK.”

Su Qingcen waved her fists in excitement and dragged Meng Fan into the underground parking lot with a suitcase in tow. Soon, the car pulled out of Mango TV central and headed towards Taiping Street.

When they departed, Su Qingcen looked like a different person. Wearing inconspicuous and low-key clothes that did not accentuate her figure, and equipping herself with a hat, scarf, and a face mask, she had successfully completed her camouflage, Meng Fan had to admit.

“What are you looking at? Start your stream already.”

Su Qingcen got down the car and felt the excitement once more. She’d even brought a portable stand and camera, which she connected to Meng Fan’s phone. Su Qing Cen was serious about being his videographer.

“I can’t tell if you’re just childlike or trying to be mature.”

Meng Fan saw Su Qingcen fire another glare in his direction and he hurriedly turned on his stream. Smiling, he said to her: “Let’s go, don’t shake the camera now! If you can’t hold it, just use your phone. Holding this thing can be tiring.”

Instinctively, Meng Fan gracefully dodged Su Qingcen’s incoming kick. Meng Fan smiled stupidly at the camera, speaking to his viewers and Su Qingcen as well. “Come, today, your host will take you on a street food tour. If you’re hungry and got baited, don’t blame

me!”

He took a look at the statistics for (Famous Streamer). He only needed 4 million viewers to complete the next task. Meng Fan felt a sudden burst of energy. Tonight was going to be the night he will complete the task!
