If Jiangnan University was a film academy, Zhao Youyue's influence might not be as great. After all, in film academies, it was not uncommon to see students who were popular during their school years. Everyone was already used to it. Maybe one day, they would be lucky enough to be chosen, and their works would become popular. Who knows, maybe they would become famous
All in all, such things were common in film schools or other art schools. However, in a top university like Jiangnan University, where most of the top students were outstanding, an actress like Zhao Youyue, who had gained such influence just by acting in a youth film, had suddenly appeared!
Coincidentally, this movie was released not long before school reopened. When school reopens, the movie's influence would spread. Interestingly, the beginning of school, which many students did not look forward to, became the most anticipated event. Once school reopens, they would be able to meet Zhao Youyue on campus. Wouldn't it be great if they could ask her for an autograph?
Zhao Youyue's autograph was extremely difficult to obtain. After the movie was finished, she would not even bother to participate in any promotional activities. It was as if she had not acted in the movie at all, or that her mission had been completed the moment she finished the movie …
If other actresses dared to do this, they would have been blacklisted by the investors. They might not even be able to survive in the industry, because they lacked the professional ethics of an actress.
However, Zhao Youyue could do this. She had every right to do so, because she did not care about the entertainment industry at all. Even the investors were her family. Why would they restrict her?
To the entertainment industry, it was an honor for Lady Zhao to come and film a movie. If she waved her sleeves and left the industry, it would be a loss for the industry …
Now that Zhao Youyue's title as "The Modern Zhang Guorong" had spread far and wide, countless indie film directors wanted to work with her. It was common knowledge that the indie film industry was a messy place. Who knows, they might even be able to take advantage of the opportunity of filming a movie to get close to her. That would be like turning into a phoenix!
In this world, women were not the only ones who could change their fate. Men could do it too. As long as they could gain Lady Zhao's favor, their net worth would rise immediately!
Unfortunately, Zhao Youyue had no intention of continuing to act in a new movie. She had said it before, her goal was not to become famous, but to maintain the iconic image of "Chu Luoxun."
In fact, it was not just arthouse directors. All kinds of commercial films that wanted to make money also hoped to invite Zhao Youyue to participate in them. This was because "Beautiful April" had become a classic example of using a small amount to make a big profit. The returns were just too shocking. Zhao Hao, who was already prepared to lose money, was pleasantly surprised. Who would have thought that this mission would be so profitable!
It was easy to figure out the reason why the box office of this movie was so high.
All in all, Zhao Youyue had become an actress with both acting skills and charisma. If she had a manager, she would definitely suggest that she take on a big-budget movie, preferably a series of blockbusters with special effects. That way, if this movie became a hit, her position in the film industry would be completely secured.
Other than Zhao Youyue, the other biggest beneficiary was, of course, Han Leng. Many authors felt that he had become the biggest winner. Most importantly, he had won without doing anything. According to the quality of the plot, "Beautiful April" was quite average. You could not expect Han Leng, who was still a high school student, to write anything profound. The biggest highlight was probably the character "Chu Luoxun." Because of this character, Lady Zhao had taken a liking to her. She had promoted the character in various ways. Now, she had even played the role of the character herself. This had caused the influence of this work to grow!
An author could become so popular with an immature first novel. Was this not enough to make people jealous?
Moreover, there were rumors that Lady Zhao and the super popular author, Han Leng, were very close. They seemed to have gone on a date together in high school. It was even a date between the two of them. Did this mean that there was a possibility between them?
If that was the case, then Han Leng was practically at the peak of his life!
Now, with the huge success of the movie, the sales of his book had ushered in a huge wave of growth. That was a small amount of money. Some people in the industry who were jealous of Han Leng said that he was being kept by Lady Zhao. He was not being kept by money, but in another way that was far better than money.
This was probably the highest level of being kept. Obviously, no money was used, but the effect was so much better than money. His reputation was good too. Many authors wished to have a perfect reader like Lady Zhao!
While many students of Jiangnan University were looking forward to the start of school, Zhao Youyue herself did not feel much. She did not deliberately keep a low profile, nor did she purposely keep a high profile. However, she had changed her car to a more lady-like one. If you were to use the car brand of another world as an analogy, it would be like replacing a Mercedes-Benz with a Rolls-Royce. The logo on the front of the car was simply the standard configuration of a lady-like character in many anime.
The difference was that other lady-like characters might rely on their elders to obtain such luxurious configuration, but Zhao Youyue had obtained it with her own abilities.
The huge success of "Beautiful April" had also earned Zhao Youyue a huge sum of money. Her cousin, Zhao Hao, was not a stingy person. He would not go back on his word. Since this project had earned so much money, and the reason for its success was because of his sister, then these profits belonged to his sister!
In fact, Zhao Youyue's excellence had far exceeded Zhao Hao's expectations. Of course, Ding Yuncong also felt that it was such an honor to have such a genius sister
Other than continuing to invest money into her own business, Zhao Youyue of course used the rest of the money to further build up her lady-like character. If she was originally a mere Missy, then now, she was truly a Missy in the truest sense of the word. She was just like the Missy that many authors had imagined.
On the first day of school at Jiangnan University, a super luxurious car slowly drove to the school gate. It immediately attracted the attention of many students!
