“Mm. Resting right now.”
“Well, um … DaRen, what do you usually do during your rest periods?”
“Sleep.” Qiang Qing Ci paused briefly, then added, “Or go to the recording studio.”
So … the rumors were true that Toupai had a career that was very busy? Being a commercial voice artist was just a … side job?
Gu Sheng’s admiration for Toupai grew that much more.
“DaRen, wlll you be going to the recording studio today?”
“Mm-hmm.”
“Doing voice acting for a video game?”
Collaboration between video game producers and the various 2-D world entertainment circles was the most common type of partnership seen. This included working with writers and CVs, and even big name ancient-style singers were often invited to sing the theme songs for video games. She seemed to recall there was a recenty released video game that had teamed up with three of the different circles: writers had provided background support while CVs and ancient-style singers had taken part in the promotional video.
“Mm-hmm.”
“Um… DaRen, it’s been three years since you participated in Wanmei’s anniversary celebration. How come you’ve decided to take part this year?”
“This year happens to be the tenth anniversary celebration.” Qiang Qing Ci was quiet for a moment. “It’s not very likely I’d be able to get out of Wanmei’s tenth anniversary event.”
No wonder this time around he was making an appearance. Tenth anniversary was a big event.
“That’s true … Um, then, DaRen, are you planning on coming back into the online entertainment circle?”
“No,” he answered simply. “After this tenth anniversary celebration, I’m going to completely retire my mike in the online world.”
“…… That’s a shame.”
Several years ago, Qiang Qing Ci already had stopped accepting new projects, voicing dramas, and doing special performances for birthday celebrations. These last few years, all of his works had come out of a recording studio and were all commercial voice projects … However, even when he was still doing online voice acting, he had not voiced very many dramas. All of his friends in the circle were veteran figures who had been around in the beginning when online voice acting had not yet become popular.
