Chinese entertainment: Top stars started being pursued by young actresses

Chapter 231, Part 230: Backstage at the Weibo Night - Senior Sister Xiaotian and the Others Are Not Giving Way to Each Other (4K)

"Actually, I'm quite happy."

Lin Shaobai turned to look out the window and suddenly said something.

Tian Xiwei has now regained her usual composure.

"What's so exciting? Is it because filming wrapped up for today? Can you finally get some rest?"

"That's one of the reasons."

"What else?"

"because of you."

Lin Shaobai turned his head and tapped Xiaotian's forehead with his index and middle fingers.

Tian Xi glanced up slightly, then fixed her gaze on Lin Shaobai: "Because of me? Because I'm happy?"

"Seeing your fan base grow so much makes me happy for you. Aren't fans called the head chef? Everyone likes you."

"..."

That's a truly unexpected answer.

Tian Xiwei felt her breathing quicken by 2 seconds compared to before.

"you……"

"I."

"You actually..."

"I can't believe it."

No matter what Xiao Tian says, Lin Shaobai can always find a way to respond.

"I……"

Tian Xiwei was incoherent and didn't even know what to say.

She was deeply moved because she knew that Lin Shaobai supported her.

"Get some rest after filming wraps up; you must be exhausted from this period."

Lin Shaobai affectionately patted Xiao Tian's head.

Xiaotian is older than him, but in the current situation, it's impossible to tell that it's a relationship between an older woman and a younger man.

……

……

A few days later came the annual Weibo Night.

This year's Weibo Night featured 20 awards, and participating celebrities included Lin Shaobai, Zhou Ye, Tian Xiwei, Zhang Jingyi, Yang Zi, Li Yumi, TFBOYS, Yang Mi, Hua Fashi, Xiao Zhan, Wang Yibo, Dilraba, Zhou Dongyu...

It was another star-studded gala.

After the red carpet show, everyone sat on chairs in the back.

Lin Shaobai came out first, and there weren't many people in the back yet.

A short while later, Zhou Ye walked in.

"Sister."

Lin Shaobai greeted his senior sister.

Zhou Ye, lifting her skirt, was the first to walk over and sit down next to him.

"I have something to ask you."

Zhou Ye felt as nervous as if he were a secret agent.

"What?"

"Tell me quietly, how did Sheryl and the others perform?"

"Oh, so that's what you're concerned about."

"How can I not care? We're in the same company, and I have a good relationship with them. Seeing how hard they train every day, of course I hope they can achieve good results."

"Can we take a guess? Can we guess how they performed?"

"Um……"

Zhou Ye lowered his eyelids, thought for a few seconds, and said confidently, "I think I should have gotten the best rating from your area."

"You're amazing, senior sister! You guessed it right away."

Are they powerful from there?

"There are many other very strong players. In fact, the overall strength of this year's contestants is quite high."

"Oh……"

As Zhou Ye turned his head, he saw Xiao Tian entering the room.

The smile on his face froze instantly.

When Tian Xiwei entered the backcourt, the first thing she saw was Zhou Ye, who also looked depressed.

Good heavens, what's going on?!
Forget it, calm down. Given their current situation, they'll likely encounter this kind of grand event almost every year.

Last time, because there were fixed seats, Tian Xiwei was unable to sit down next to Lin Shaobai.

This time, you're free!

Tian Xiwei lifted her skirt and quickly walked to Lin Shaobai's side.

Lin Shaobai greeted him.

Tian Xiwei didn't say anything, she just stood in front of Lin Shaobai, and didn't even bother to look at Zhou Ye.

“Um… Xiaotian…”

"Humph."

Tian Xi gave a muffled groan and sat down in the seat on the other side of Lin Shaobai.

Zhou Ye squinted and forced a smile, saying, "Miss Tian~"

This is why, at the Weibo Night gala, if it were offline, people would have already started calling him "the one surnamed Tian".

"Oh dear, Miss Zhou~"

Unexpectedly, Tian Xiwei retaliated in kind, replying to her senior sister with the same strange tone.

As Lin Shaobai sat in the middle, listening to these two voices, he inexplicably recalled Wang Churan.

Because she always speaks to people in that tone.

A tone that makes you want to immediately grab a bucket and put it in your mouth.

"What's wrong, Miss Zhou? Is there something you need?"

"Hehe, Miss Tian, ​​it seems like your two big eyes are just for decoration."

Can't you tell I'm next to Lin Shaobai?!
Why are you meddling in this?

"Ah, what a pity. Some people don't even have eyes that big. Are you jealous?"

"What are you jealous of? If you're so capable, why don't you lift your bangs up?"

"Don't change the subject. We're talking about eyes, not bangs."

"The place is packed, there are so many seats, and you just had to sit here. Aren't you deliberately trying to cause trouble?"

"I think Miss Zhou, you should be more magnanimous. I wasn't even sitting next to you. What are you picking a fight with?"

The two of them went back and forth, neither willing to give in.

The match remained undecided for a long time.

Lin Shaobai, sitting in the middle, felt as if his left side was being roasted by fire and his right side was being struck by lightning.

"Alright." Seeing staff members approaching from a distance, Lin Shaobai gestured to stop the two: "There are getting more and more people."

Zhou Ye and Tian Xiwei also turned to the side.

They didn't even want to touch the air around them.

Zhang Jingyi had just finished walking the red carpet and was backstage when she heard two staff members talking next to her.

"Look, Zhou Ye and Tian Xi are sitting together."

"Isn't Lin Shaobai sandwiched in between?"

"How did those three end up sitting together?"

"Isn't that normal? Both of them have been paired with Lin Shaobai, maybe they're trying to create a CP (couple pairing) effect?"

"Is it really that bad? We're not even in the inner area right now."

"That might be because you have a better relationship with the company."

After the two staff members finished talking, they noticed Zhang Jingyi standing next to them the whole time.

Zhang Jingyi is not talkative in this kind of situation, and her sudden appearance startled the two people.

"Oh my god! Teacher Zhang... when did you arrive?"

"Did I scare you? Sorry, I just arrived."

Zhang Jingyi smiled politely.

He originally intended to walk over to Lin Shaobai and sit next to him.

Unfortunately, we arrived too late; both spots were already taken.

Why is she still my senior sister?

Zhang Jingyi had a pretty good impression of Tian Xiwei; they had chatted before and inexplicably found they had a lot of chemistry.

"Teacher Zhang, are you looking at Lin Shaobai?"

"Ok?"

Suddenly, a staff member rushed over and looked at Zhang Jingyi with starry eyes.

Clearly, this person is a shipper.

"I really like you and Teacher Lin."

“Thank you, thank you for your support.”

Zhang Jingyi's excessive enthusiasm made her even more socially awkward.

She then sat quietly in the front row by herself and did not bother Lin Shaobai again.

One by one, the celebrities walked the red carpet and entered the backstage area. When they saw Lin Shaobai, they couldn't help but come over to say hello. Master Hua was now completely indifferent.

He used to consider himself Lin Shaobai's contemporary rival, but now he is very self-aware and doesn't dare to mention it at all.

He can't beat Lin Shaobai in any aspect.

Since they're not in the same dimension, there's no need to fight to the death.

The arrival of the big names caused Tian Xiwei and Zhou Ye to leave their seats.

Tian Xiwei was sitting alone in the far right corner when she was surprised to see a female producer wearing glasses walk over.

Hello, Teacher Tian.

The female producer had a kind and gentle face, which instantly put Oda at ease.

"Hello, may I ask you...?"

"Oh, hello, my surname is Yang, and I am a producer."

"Oh... hello."

Tian Xiwei wondered if she recognized the person.

I feel so lost.

What should we talk about next?

"We are preparing for an ancient fantasy drama, and the female lead's character is very cute. Then one day I saw a trending topic called 'Adorable Goddess Tian Xiwei'."

"..."

Tian Xiwei feels like vomiting blood every time she hears this trending topic.

It's so embarrassing, especially saying it so seriously.

"I think you fit the image of Xiaolanhua perfectly; you are suitable in every way."

"Little Orchid, what Little Orchid?"

"Oh, sorry, I didn't say that. It's the female lead of our TV series, her name is Xiao Lan Hua. Anyway, we really, really want you to play Xiao Lan Hua."

"..."

"I can send you the script to take a look."

"...Uh..."

Tian Xiwei was slightly stunned.

Because this happened so suddenly.

Just a second ago, he was sitting alone in the corner, lost in thought.

The key issue is that this producer has a strong desire for control.

We're forcing people to read the script!

"Hey, isn't this Producer Yang?"

At the crucial moment, Lin Shaobai stepped in and calmly accepted what Producer Yang had to say.

Tian Xiwei then turned her gaze to Lin Shaobai's back.

Ok?
When did Kobayashi arrive?

I didn't notice at all.

Or perhaps... he's actually been paying attention to me all along, which is why he did it at this time...

"Oh, it's Mr. Lin. Hello, Mr. Lin."

Producer Yang took the initiative to grasp Lin Shaobai's hand, her eyes burning with desire as if she had seen him as her lifeline.

Lin Shaobai remains a highly sought-after figure in the industry.

Anyone who can get him to act is truly blessed.

This guy is a real god of wealth!

"Mr. Lin, let's talk in private for a moment."

So Lin Shaobai was forcibly dragged to a rest room.

Lin Shaobai had met Producer Yang at a previous awards ceremony, but they had only exchanged greetings.

Having acted for several years, he had some understanding of this famous producer.

"President Lin, we are casting for the female lead in our fantasy drama series 'The Legend of Canglan'. Actually, we haven't decided on a good candidate yet. Recently, I saw Xiaotian on the trending topics and found her quite cute, so I'm thinking of casting her as the female lead, Xiaolanhua."

"Oh, so that's why you were so obsessed with her back then."

Lin Shaobai honestly complained.

"Oh dear, Mr. Lin, look at you! What do you mean by 'persistent'? This is called a two-way communication."

Producer Yang waved his hand.

Lin Shaobai: "I have a question."

"Please go ahead, Mr. Lin."

"That male lead..."

"Of course we'd like to invite Teacher Lin to play the male lead, but we just don't know if Teacher Lin has the time?"

Lin Shaobai looked down and found that the script for "The Legend of Canglan" had appeared in his phone's chat interface.

Well, that perfectly matches the personality traits of this producer, Yang.

They are impatient and have an exceptionally strong desire for control.

"It's a really good script, and we've been working on it for a long time. The only problem is casting. We've always wanted to cast Mr. Lin as Dongfang Qingcang, but..."

It mainly depends on whether Lin Shaobai is willing to take the role.

"I never expected to have to come up with a script at the Weibo Night event."

"This is a rare opportunity, so..."

"It's great, I think the script is pretty good."

Lin Shaobai barely looked at the script at all.

What are you looking at? Isn't "The Legend of Canglan" a well-known blockbuster drama?
Within 10 days of its premiere, the show's popularity on Kiwi Fruit reached a peak of over 10,000, with a single-day viewership exceeding 200 million and a total viewership surpassing 5 billion.

It's also the number one hit in various countries.

During its broadcast, the show accumulated over 800 trending topics, with related topics even exceeding 500 billion views.

There's also the popular short video website, Dongfang Qingcang, which features a variety of cool and edgy fan-made content.

It has been rated 8.1 by over 50 users on Douban.

This drama also proves the three aspects of a hit drama: hit songs, hit actors, and hit memes.
The OST "Farewell to Love" became a hit, and the male lead of the drama, Wang Hedi, became an overnight sensation, gaining 500 million followers.

It won't flop even in the next few years.

Just moments before, he was being criticized for his wooden acting in a TV series, but then this show suddenly became a top hit.

Sometimes, an actor's success really depends on fate.

"You dare touch my people?" and other trending memes like "curative illness" went viral.

It became a viral sensation from every angle.

How could Lin Shaobai possibly miss it?

Yu Shuxin hasn't become popular yet, so Tian Xiwei is the most suitable sweet girl.

The trending topic #CuteGoddessTianXiwei#, which she so disliked back then, wasn't entirely without merit.

Even a famous producer saw that trending topic and expressed interest in collaborating with her.

"We'll discuss the specifics later. Let's go inside."

Hearing the commotion outside, Lin Shaobai spoke to Producer Yang.

"Yes. Okay, Mr. Lin."

Producer Yang was overjoyed.

Zhou Ye, Tian Xiwei, and Zhang Jingyi followed the staff into the venue and sat down according to the list.

Coincidentally, the three of them were sitting together again!
Tian Xiwei felt as if she had entered an infinite loop.

How can the same thing happen again?

This time, however, she was the one sitting in the middle, separating the famous online twins.

None of the three spoke.

This contrasted sharply with the lively discussions around him.

Tian Xiwei wondered if she should say something this time.
Otherwise, the awkward atmosphere captured on camera will be criticized by netizens.

"Hello!" So the cute and cheerful Xiaotian took the initiative to turn around and wave to Zhang Jingyi: "Long time no see, Jingyi."

"Uh, okay, long time no see. Hello, Xiaotian."

Zhang Jingyi was shocked, but immediately smiled gently.

"Okay, let's go again, hello Zhou Ye!"

Just as enthusiastic as before, but this time, he was met with indifference.

When Zhou Ye has no expression, his face is terrifyingly cold.

She slowly raised her eyes to look at Tian Xiwei.

Seeing that half-dead expression made Tian Xiwei's lips twitch twice.

Hey, your fist's hardened.

"Ugh...why does your face still look so sour?"

Tian Xiwei didn't tolerate it and spoke frankly.

Zhou Ye sneered, covered his mouth with one hand, and said, "I can't be happy about that."

Tian Xiwei also covered her mouth: "Heh ha, I'll return this sentence to you verbatim."

Zhou Ye: "If you're so capable, lift your bangs up."

Tian Xiwei: "I'm too lazy to talk to the tablet."

Zhou Ye: "You!"

I'm so sleepy
