Chapter 229
“What?” Felicity did not understand what Stella meant.
“Well, sometimes Sophia’s methods can be pretty effective,” said Stella.
Felicity was still trying to figure out the meaning of Stella’s sentence. Soon, she saw Stella’s
countermove.
After half an hour, Dusk Galaxy posted on Facebook, [Nothing in the world is as mean as the human
heart.] Just ten minutes later, she posted again, [All work suspended indefinitely.] And ten minutes after
that, she took down all of her Facebook posts and deactivated her account, quitting the platform entirely.
Shortly thereafter, some netizens discovered that she had not. only deactivated her Facebook account,
but all of her social media accounts. Soon, the topic Dusk Galaxy Quits Social Media” climbed to the top
of the trending list in just a few minutes.
Dusk Galaxy did not offer any explanation for Kelly’s interview or respond to any of the netizens’
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtquestions. With just the phrase “as mean as the human heart” as her farewell message, she had
completely withdrawn from social media.
Kelly did not name the voice actor or provide any substantial evidence linking Dusk Galaxy to the
allegations. Dusk Galaxy could have continued to earn money in the voice-acting industry after the storm
passed. Despite this, Dusk Galaxy decided to give up her livelihood due to one negative comment. This
decision did not seem logical, especially for someone Kelly had claimed to have complained about low
pay.
Soon after, someone uncovered Dusk Galaxy’s earlier voice-over work for children’s books, which was
allegedly done for charity and thus unpaid. Besides children’s books, she lent her voice to numerous
public service announcements and provided audio instructions for vision- impaired children. These
actions hardly fit the profile of someone who despised taking low- paying gigs
The chief and several other big names in the voice-acting industry then spoke up for Dusk Galaxy,
debunking the rumors of high salaries for voice actors. They revealed that, in reality, voice actors were
paid much less than regular actors, with a few hundred dollars per episode being the norm. Working with
actors who could not enunciate clearly meant that the lines had to be repeated over and over, which
often led to late-night recording sessions. Even once voice -over actors had established themselves,
they still had to comply with the script and accommodate the other actors. If they were not “smart”
enough and offended someone, there might be no jobs for them for a year.
Half an hour later, a well-known charity federation in Hustuabourg released a public service video.
Coincidentally, the voice of the female character in the video was Dusk Galaxy’s, and it was also done for
charity. Moreover, this video was a public service advertisement from several years ago. It was very
interesting that this video was released at this critical moment.
With all these supporting facts surfacing, the public opinion swiftly reversed, and netizens turned their
firepower on Kelly.
[Kelly has been dubbed the queen of poor production. All she does is stir controversy for fame. Who is
she to question a talented voice actor?]
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm[Moreover, Kelly’s words were misleading. The basic skills of an actor include voice, expression, and
movement. They are all essential. If actors can’t even deliver lines properly.
they can forget about their acting skills.]
[After reaping the fruits from the labor of voice actors, she turned around and stepped on them.]
[She only cares about popularity and not talent. The quality of movies and TV shows has been declining
because of people like her. It’s the real-life version of “bad money drives out the good”.]
Similar to what haters had done when criticizing Dusk Galaxy, these netizens bombarded Kelly’s
Facebook with comments. There were too many of them. Eventually, Kelly had to turn off the comment
feature on her Facebook.
However, the relentless netizens then targeted her new web series on a drama rating site. In just one
day, the unlucky series received one-star ratings from tens of thousands of netizens as soon as it was
released. It became the lowest-rated series in the history of that website, which was another kind of
“hype.”
The drastic turn of events left Felicity dumbfounded.
