Huayu Entertainment: The Birth of a Succubus Top Star

Chapter 15 If hard tactics don't work, try softer ones.

Gu Zhiyan felt she wasn't famous enough, but her fellow crew members were incredibly envious.

We were all newcomers, just ordinary newbies, when suddenly someone stood out. It would be a lie to say we weren't envious.

Han Dongjun and Wang Yanlin, in particular, were not only envious, but also a little jealous.

I'm afraid my brother will suffer, but I'm also afraid he'll drive a Land Rover.

These two then egged Gu Zhiyan on to treat everyone to dinner.

It's just a meal; Gu Zhiyan can afford to treat her.

Once someone becomes famous, making money naturally becomes easier.

I recently landed a few endorsements and made a small fortune.

Many brands approached Gu Zhiyan to be their spokesperson, but after careful selection, only a few remained.

The duration of the endorsement, brand reputation, and the compatibility with Gu Zhiyan's image... these are all factors that need to be considered.

In Xiuxiu's opinion, Xiaoyan's future development will only get better and better.

On the one hand, we cannot damage Xiaoyan's reputation and image by making quick money.

She was extremely careful in choosing the brands.

Products that are prone to default or have a bad reputation, such as financial products and health products, are excluded.

On the other hand, she is also quite strict about the length of her endorsement contracts.

We will not consider projects that are too old.

We must not sacrifice long-term interests for short-term gains.

Take a long-term view of things!

After a day of filming, Gu Zhiyan treated everyone to dinner that evening.

Jin Cheng and Chen Yao sat on either side of Gu Zhiyan.

Han Dongjun and Wang Yanlin were quite envious for a while.

Gu Zhiyan's career is booming, and he's incredibly popular with women.

Unfortunately, I can only admire it; I can't learn it.

This thing requires modeling.

After dinner, the group insisted on going to sing karaoke.

The reason for this lies with Gu Zhiyan.

Everyone wants to hear him sing.

With the hit drama "My Sunshine", Gu Zhiyan's song "Silent" has also become a hit.

Some observant netizens noticed: Wow, not only is Gu Zhiyan the singer of this song, but he is also the lyricist and composer!

With the production team's deliberate promotion, this topic even trended on social media.

She's good-looking, has acting skills, and is talented.

What a treasure of a male god!

Gu Zhiyan's fans went wild and rushed to download the app.

Of course, the song itself was of good quality and attracted a large number of music lovers.

With the popularity of the TV series, the song "Silent" has climbed to the top of the charts on major music platforms.

Being able to sing isn't unusual; there are plenty of people like that in the music industry.

His ability to write songs has caught the attention of industry insiders.

Creators are a scarce commodity in any field.

However, no one asked Gu Zhiyan to write a song, since it's just a song and doesn't prove anything yet.

I'm just paying more attention to this newcomer.

The group then moved to a karaoke bar.

Gu Zhiyan's opening remarks naturally amazed her friends once again.

It sounds so good!

Jin Cheng and Chen Yao's gazes toward Gu Zhiyan shone even brighter in the dim light of the private room.

During the meal, everyone drank a little wine.

Although the drinks at KTV are bland and tasteless, drinking too much can still get you drunk.

Everyone who was having a great time drank quite a bit.

Even Gu Zhiyan, who has a high alcohol tolerance, was slightly tipsy, let alone Jin Cheng and Chen Yao.

Yao Mei was alright, she remained quiet, but she was much bolder than usual, secretly taking Gu Zhiyan's arm.

When Jin Cheng drinks too much, he becomes incredibly reckless; his audacity knows no bounds.

The little hands were unusually restless.

This made Gu Zhiyan very angry.

Fortunately, the lighting in the private room was dim, and everyone was too drunk to see clearly.

"Da Xizi, have you gone mad!"

"Little Yanzi, are you comfortable?" Jin Cheng not only didn't hold back, but got even more excited.

This crazy woman! She really needs to be taught a lesson!

Fortunately, because we had to film tomorrow, we didn't stay out too late.

Gu Zhiyan had just finished washing up when she heard a knock on the door at the hotel where the film crew was staying.

When I opened the door, it was Da Xizi.

Before Gu Zhiyan could speak, she...

……

"Sister Jin Cheng, are you feeling unwell?"

"I drank too much last night and I'm feeling a bit unwell."

Jin Cheng remained unfazed by Chen Yao's question.

Chen Yao didn't think much of it. She herself was also feeling a bit unwell. Jin Cheng had drunk more than her last night, so it was normal for her to feel uncomfortable.

Cai Yinong came again when filming for "Wu Xin: The Monster Killer" was nearing its end.

The purpose of this visit is very clear: to discuss Gu Zhiyan's signing with Tang Ren.

"President Cai, I don't have any plans to sign with the company at the moment." Gu Zhiyan shook his head in response to the contract offered by Cai Yinong.

The contract was indeed quite generous, but Gu Zhiyan never intended to sign with any company and become someone else's slave.

"Xiao Gu, have other companies contacted you?"

"Yes, there are some, but I've turned them all down. If I were to sign someone, I would definitely consider Tang Ren first, since President Cai has treated me well."

Gu Zhiyan was not lying about this; indeed, quite a few companies had contacted Xiuxiu.

The conditions offered were, well, not as good as Tang Ren's.

"Tang Ren's door is always open for you. If you change your mind, you can come to me anytime."

Cai Yinong didn't say anything more.

The atmosphere of their conversation was quite harmonious.

The reason Cai Yinong was so gentle was that Gu Zhiyan had immediately demonstrated to her what professionalism meant.

She was more familiar with contract matters than she was, and could quote legal clauses with ease.

This guy even showed off his bar exam results to her.

Those scores were truly glaringly obvious.

Top students are really hard to deal with.

Especially top students from prestigious universities.

God knows which powerful figure is standing behind him.

Senior students, teachers, professors...

Having risen to Cai Yinong's position, one naturally sees things clearly.

She felt like she was being threatened in return, let alone threatened Gu Zhiyan.

Damn it, if you're so capable, why are you even in the entertainment industry?

Forcing it won't work. Let alone Tang Ren now, even at his peak, he couldn't just ban an artist whenever he wanted.

Then we'll have to resort to a softer approach.

Let this kid taste something sweet and feel Tang Ren's sincerity.

The reason for this thought is that Gu Zhiyan did not agree to her request, but he also rejected other companies.

Tang Ren and he had a good relationship, which gave him an advantage.

Cai Yinong was not discouraged; there was still a chance.

With this in mind, Cai Yinong arrived and left in a hurry.

Having secured Cai Yinong's approval, Gu Zhiyan was able to focus on filming with peace of mind.

"Wu Xin: The Monster Killer" is just a 20-episode web series.

Filming will wrap up in about a week.

Meanwhile, the broadcast of "My Sunshine" also came to its finale.

The highest single-day viewership of "My Sunshine" reached 3.55 million, breaking the historical record, and the daily viewership exceeded 300 million for seven consecutive days.

With a total viewership exceeding 64 billion, it ranks fourth on the all-time TV drama list and has become the "most-watched modern drama online in history".

The related topics on Weibo have garnered over 30 billion views, surpassing the viewership of "The Empress of China" during the same period.

It can be said that they delivered a perfect answer.
