Huayu Entertainment: The Birth of a Succubus Top Star

Zhang Xiaobo was overjoyed to receive Mao Xiaotong's reply.

This is Gu Zhiyan! I'm sure many viewers will tune in for the episode where he makes a cameo appearance.

Most importantly, I can benefit from Gu Zhiyan's good fortune.

It's widely acknowledged in the industry that any project with Gu Zhiyan involved is guaranteed to succeed, even if it's just a cameo role.

Just look at "Hello Mr. Billionaire"—it grossed over 3 billion yuan at the box office!

Gu Zhiyan agreed to make a cameo appearance, and Zhang Xiaobo inexplicably felt that this TV series was bound to be a success!

Even if it doesn't become a huge hit, it's still a small success.

Gu Zhiyan: ...

Are they treating him like a human-shaped auspicious creature?

People in the entertainment industry are really superstitious and believe in metaphysics.

Zhang Xiaobo found a cameo role for Gu Zhiyan as General Manager Xu, the leader of the property management company where Zhong Xiaoqin works, played by Mao Xiaotong.

She has very few scenes, only appearing briefly when assigning tasks, criticizing or praising Chung Hsiao-Chin's work.

She has few scenes, but she has scenes with Mao Xiaotong, which perfectly meets Gu Zhiyan's requirements.

Gu Zhiyan is also very satisfied with this role.

Although Mr. Xu has few scenes, every appearance he makes is precisely at a key juncture in Zhong Xiaoqin's career, making him an indispensable "institutional" supporting character in shaping Zhong Xiaoqin's growth arc.

However, Gu Zhiyan did not rush to start filming, but instead asked Zhang Xiaobo to wait a few days before filming his scenes.

He had already promised Mao Xiaotong that he would spend a few more days with her, so he could take advantage of the excuse of a guest appearance to stay a few more days.

It's fine to just visit the set and leave, but to stay on an unrelated film set for so many days for no reason, who knows what rumors will start circulating outside.

He is now the center of attention.

……

I'm going out for a bit.

Where are you going?

Gu Zhiyan looked at the mysterious Mao Xiaotong and asked curiously.

"Don't ask anymore, I'll be back in a bit."

After saying that, Mao Xiaotong turned around and left in a hurry.

She returned shortly afterward.

One becomes two.

One person went back, and two people came back.

A girl was following behind Mao Xiaotong.

Although the other party was "fully armed" and covered up tightly, Gu Zhiyan still recognized who it was at a glance.

Da Tian Tian!

"Guess who I am?" Da Tian Tian asked.

"Let me think? Sigh, I can't guess." Gu Zhiyan pretended not to know.

"Haha, I knew you wouldn't guess!" Da Tiantian dropped her "armor," looking at Gu Zhiyan with a smug expression. "Ding ding ding ding, it's me!"

"Oh, it's Tian Tian!" Gu Zhiyan feigned surprise.

Looking at these two clowns, Mao Xiaotong was speechless: Tian Tian, ​​you silly girl, didn't you realize that the stinky guy was just putting on an act for you?

Da Tian Tian was the surprise that Mao Xiaotong prepared for Gu Zhiyan.

As best friends, they chat almost every day, so they know each other's schedules very well.

Da Tian Tian wasn't busy lately, so Mao Xiao Tong called her over.

Upon hearing that Gu Zhiyan was there, Da Tiantian rushed over without stopping.

Da Tian Tian: Xiao Tong is the best; she always thinks of me when there are good things.

At this moment, Da Tiantian had already rushed into Gu Zhiyan's arms.

Mao Xiaotong looked at Gu Zhiyan, who was hugging Da Tiantian, and asked, "Are you happy?"

Gu Zhiyan nodded.

How could I not be happy?

The next step, naturally, is to do something even more enjoyable.

……

Gu Zhiyan, who originally planned to stay on the set of "Nothing But Thirty" for three or four days, ended up staying for more than a week.

Gu Zhiyan finished filming his cameo scenes and returned to the capital after Da Tiantian went to work.

After only a few days back in Beijing, Gu Zhiyan received a call from Gu Man.

The script is finished, and the project can begin.

Gu Man made this call because Gu Zhiyan's company was one of the main investors.

The other major investor is Tencent Penguin Pictures.

Because Gu Zhiyan had decided to join the project early on, the preparations were already complete, and they were just waiting for Gu Man's script to be released.

After communication among all parties, the machine will be turned on a week later.

Just after finalizing the relevant details, Gu Zhiyan's attention was drawn to a trending topic.

Chengcheng's sister and Da Hei Niu announced their breakup.

Today may be a day of breakups, as Song Joong-ki and Song Hye-kyo also announced their divorce today.

Just as Gu Zhiyan was looking at it, her phone rang.

The phone call came from the person involved in the trending topic.

"My sister is heartbroken. Come keep her company and have lunch together."

Chengcheng's sister's voice came from the other end of the microphone.

Her voice sounded very light and cheerful; she didn't sound like someone who had just broken up with her boyfriend at all.

"Okay, sister, send me the location." Gu Zhiyan agreed.

Gu Zhiyan absorbed most of the resources left after the other party "fell," so she owed her a lot of favors.

"Come directly to my house. Given your current situation, it wouldn't be good for you if you were photographed eating out."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Zhiyan drove to the address sent by Chengcheng's sister.

It's not far; it takes less than twenty minutes to drive there.

Gu Zhiyan drove straight into the detached villa.

When I saw Chengcheng's sister again, she no longer looked anxious and haggard like she did the last time we met, and she was in very good spirits.

She remains a top beauty in the entertainment industry.

Well, that's not quite right either; she's no longer in the entertainment industry.

Clearly, she has probably moved on from the last incident.

"Little brother, you can cook for a bit, the food will be ready soon." Chengcheng's sister looked at Gu Zhiyan with a smile.

She looks to be in a good mood, not at all like someone who just broke up.

"Sister, let me help you. I'm a great cook." Gu Zhiyan got up and headed to the kitchen.

He didn't expect that Chengcheng's sister would cook for him today.

It's hard to imagine that this former top star in the entertainment industry is now acting like a virtuous wife and loving mother.

"No need, you can rest. This is the last dish. I know you're a good cook. I've watched the episode of 'Back to Field' where you cooked several times," Chengcheng's sister smiled. "If you want to cook, you can make it for me next time so I can taste your cooking."

"Okay, if you want to eat it, I'll make it for you next time."

Before long, the meal was ready.

"Have a couple of drinks with my sister."

Chengcheng's sister shook the red wine in her hand.

"Okay." Gu Zhiyan nodded.

"Come on, let's celebrate my sister's new life! Cheers!"

Chengcheng's sister raised her glass and clinked it against Gu Zhiyan's, then drank it all in one gulp.

She had drunk quite a bit of wine today, and her cheeks were flushed with a faint wine red.

Wine stains her cheeks, a light blush more alluring than rouge.

After dinner, the two sat on the sofa and chatted.

After chatting for a while, Gu Zhiyan asked, "What are your plans for the future, sister?"

"I'm currently starting my own beauty brand. I'm just so bored, so I'm looking for something to do," Chengcheng's sister said with a smile.

She originally thought she would feel out of place leaving the glamorous entertainment industry, but to her surprise, she felt unexpectedly relaxed and at ease.

It's great to no longer have to pay attention to the petty squabbles in the entertainment industry or engage in backstabbing every day.

She no longer has the competitive spirit she once had and just wants to live a peaceful and carefree life.

Do what you want to do, and love the people you like.

Thinking of this, Chengcheng's sister glanced at Gu Zhiyan.

That one glance was captivating.
