Huayu: Were you ever a top star before writing nonsense?

Inside Xu Xinran's office.

"What six-eyed flying fish?" Shen Can's words confused Xu Xinran.

She recognized each of the four characters individually, but when they were put together, she couldn't understand them.

"The lyrics of 'Courage' say that love truly requires courage to face gossip and rumors," Shen Can patiently explained.

Shen Can saw Gao Yuanyuan's blog post while browsing the forum discussions just now.

"Oh, this is it."

"So, why did you make me listen to 'Hello, Poison'? Senior sister, do you have a problem with me?"

"Uh...never mind that. Tell me, how do you plan to respond to Gao Yuanyuan?" Xu Xinran's expression changed slightly, and she decisively changed the subject.

"Her meaning is quite clear: she wants me to be brave enough to pursue her. I'll just fulfill her wish," Shen Can said with a smile.

"Huh? Is that what she means?" Xu Xinran was astonished.

"What else?" Shen Can shrugged.

He had seen it all.

Xu Xinran: !!!

Shen Can's attitude drove her crazy, and she wished she could tear the black stockings off her own legs.

These are the new stockings she wore today after reading Shen Can's novel yesterday.

Shen Can thought about it carefully:

"I've never met her in real life, so I don't know what her personality is like, but she's beautiful, and that's all that matters."

Although netizens always say that Gao Yuanyuan is only good-looking from the top half and has short legs, isn't that enough? Shen Can is satisfied with being good-looking at half the time.

If all else fails, I can always find another girlfriend with long legs.

If you can see the upper body and the lower body, wouldn't it be perfect if you put them together? Wouldn't that mean you can see the whole body?

To be fair, Xu Xinran's legs are quite long and pretty.

Xu Xinran was so angry that she wanted to tear the stockings even more, and glared at Shen Can with a huff.

Shen Can couldn't help but laugh when he saw Xu Xinran's adorable angry expression.

Are you jealous?

"Get jealous of your sister! Do whatever you want, it's none of my business. Besides, maybe Gao Yuanyuan never intended for you to pursue her? You could interpret her words as her telling you to have the courage to strive for a better life."

Shen Can smiled even more happily, but unfortunately, the office door was open, making it inconvenient for him to do anything else.

"I don't care what she thinks. I write gossip about female celebrities for clicks. I won't stop writing about other female celebrities just because I wrote about her."

There's no rush to write about Fan Xiaopang's gossip yet.

Besides, Gao Yuanyuan was just saying it casually, why would you actually believe her?

Approaching thirty, working in the entertainment industry... this kind of woman can toy with you like it's nothing.

Furthermore, from the perspective of pursuing women, if you really want to win over Gao Yuanyuan, you need to know the right methods.

In short, don't be a simp.

The more you care about a goddess and the more you fawn over her, the more she will look down on you and not care about you.

Shen Can recalled an incident that happened to someone in his past life.

He has a friend (PS: a true friend), let's call him A.

When A was a freshman in college, he met goddess B. She was beautiful, had a great figure, and was stunningly beautiful. A then began to pursue goddess B relentlessly.

Although A's appearance was not attractive, his family was wealthy and he was particularly willing to spend money on his goddess. Therefore, it took him two years to finally win her over.

A doted on his goddess, who said they couldn't have sex before marriage. He agreed and remained celibate ever since.

Until one day, A and B had a big fight over something, which almost led to a breakup, and they started giving each other the cold shoulder.

The Cold War lasted for about a month. During this time, C, a handsome young man from a street dance club, took advantage of the situation and showered B, the goddess, with concern and care.

Goddess B was captivated by C's gentleness and handsomeness. One night, she had sex with C and gave him her virginity.

After that night, B came to her senses and decided to marry A.

So A and B reconciled and, two years later, successfully entered into marriage, much to the envy of others.

However, on their wedding night, A noticed that B did not bleed, and therefore suspected that B was not a virgin.

B explained that he fell off his bicycle as a child and broke his leg...

A was skeptical of this ridiculous reason until one day not long after, when B went to take a shower, A saw a text message sent by C to B on B's phone. It turned out that C had been reminiscing about B ever since that night and wanted to experience it again.

A was furious.

Ultimately, A and B divorced.

"She doesn't love you. Even if you manage to win her over, it might still end tragically."

While Shen Can was deep in thought, Xu Xinran remained silent for a long time before asking a question:

"How many more female celebrities do you plan to write about? How many more people do you plan to confess your feelings to?"

"I don't know, we'll just have to wait and see."

"You really are a compassionate person."

"Life is like a play, you know, they're just my tools."

"Tsk..." Xu Xinran smiled faintly, "Let's not talk about that. Let me tell you something. A shopping mall in Hangzhou that's about to open called the company and wants to invite you to sing a few songs on opening day."

"This is great!" Shen Can's eyes lit up.

"How much is one song?"

For him, who was too poor to afford rent, it was a godsend.

It's important to know that commercial performance fees are usually settled immediately, and you can leave after the performance. There are no unspoken rules or situations where you are required to toast anyone.

Hangzhou has beautiful scenery, and after the commercial performance, you can take a stroll around.

It's like going on a business trip or a vacation.

To be honest, being a celebrity doing commercial performances is much more comfortable than writing online novels.

Not only does writing online novels require daily updates and long hours sitting in front of a computer, leading to chronic illnesses, but it also pays slowly. Before publication, authors need to accumulate word counts and boost data. After publication, they need to maintain daily updates while occasionally releasing large amounts of content... It takes one or two months of this hard work to receive their first payment.

The fake brothel industry is confirmed.

Xu Xinran spread her arms out and waved them in front of Shen Can.

"It's not calculated per song, it's calculated per show. They offered 100,000 for four songs."

"Could you ask them which temple they made their wishes at? We can go there sometime tomorrow."

That's exactly where people make wishes.

Although 100,000 yuan sounds like a lot, when averaged out, the price of each song is only 10,000 yuan (25,000 yuan).

More importantly, the client requested four songs...

Normally, celebrities only sing their own songs or songs for commercial purposes, otherwise it can easily lead to infringement and legal disputes.

For example, Wang Feng sued Rising Sun because Rising Sun performed "In the Spring" in a commercial performance without obtaining authorization from Wang Feng.

Shen Can has only released three songs so far, which means he needs to add one more song to make it a total of four.

They either have to pay for song licenses or use his own new songs.

That way, we can have all four songs.

"I can hear the sound of abacus beads from Hangzhou in Shanghai," Shen Can thought to himself.

People from the Jiangsu and Zhejiang region are indeed good at doing business.

Great.
