Shattering the talent show script, sweeping the world film scene

Jiangxi Heng purchased a total of five songs and one web series from the system store, all of which were rated A.

Two of the songs have already been released: "Mando Villa" and "Tomorrow's Coordinates".

Because Song Zhiyue bought the exclusive cover rights to the latter and used it as the debut song for a boy group, Jiangxi Heng can only sell the cover rights to "Mantuo Villa" now.

If it weren't for the uproar caused by his withdrawal from the competition, which boosted the popularity of the two songs again, he wouldn't have been able to use his civilization points to win the web series called "Life and Death Cycle".

Upon hearing Chi Ziyou's question, Jiangxi Heng nodded: "Yes, I'm short of money right now, so I'll have to wait three months before I pay you your salaries in one lump sum, is that alright?"

Fang Weiyang and Chi Ziyou nodded indifferently. They weren't there for the money; they were just there to work for their buddy and learn something along the way.

Jiangxi Heng created a group chat called "The Entire Cast of 'Life and Death Cycle'". Just as he was about to take the two of them inside the company, he received a message from Nie Mingzhu's agent.

This agent has been in the industry for 10 years and signed Nie Mingzhu for Fengmang Entertainment 5 years ago.

Unlike the original owner's family-run workshop, Nie Mingzhu did not join a company before the age of 13. He studied and occasionally acted. His parents were ordinary people who respected their son's hobbies. Their only requirement was that he not miss the school's major exams.

Nie Mingzhu may seem arrogant and unruly, but he is actually quite intelligent and has excellent grades in school, completely outshining the original owner of the body in academics.

The original owner once greatly envied Nie Mingzhu.

While he was alone on set, struggling to finish his demanding scenes and eating cold boxed lunches, Nie Mingzhu's parents would bring him warm food.

Later, Nie Mingzhu became friends with the original owner of the body through a bowl of mung bean soup.

The original owner was never jealous of this friend, even though rumors circulated that the two had fallen out years ago.

Thinking of the warm memories, Jiangxi Heng smiled and opened the agent's business card.

Xu Wenyi, an A-level agent at Fengmang Film & Television, is 28 years old this year. She manages four or five artists, with Nie Mingzhu being the youngest among them.

She began with a very official statement, then cut to the chase: "Mr. Jiang, hello. I'm Nie Mingzhu's agent. Mingzhu told me you'd like him to have a cameo role in a drama. May I ask who wrote the script and what genre it is?"

Jiangxi Heng sensed that the agent was slightly dissatisfied with him, but he could understand it after thinking about it.

Given his current fame and status, he seems like a young punk trying to seduce the beautiful and wealthy Nie Mingzhu.

"Life and Death Cycle" comes from the system store, and its creator comes from another time and space. Jiangxi Heng can only "misattribute" it and write his own name in the copyright registration database.

There isn't another Elias King to use as a pseudonym.

[Jiangxi Heng: Ms. Xu, it's a bit difficult for me to explain the script in just a few words. If you have time, you can bring Nie Mingzhu to my company so we can discuss it in person (address)]

Upon seeing this, Xu Wenyi chuckled, "Hiding its head and tail, it seems to be no impressive script."

Nie Mingzhu, standing to the side, suddenly brightened up: "Let's go, sis, we're free tonight, let's go take a look."

Xu Wenyi was so angry with her rebellious son that she almost fainted.

"You're such a big guy, why don't you use your brain? He's definitely trying to trick you, then use your past relationship to blackmail you and force you to agree! And you still want to go?"

Nie Mingzhu paused for a moment: "Jiangxi Heng is heavily in debt and has no one to help him. His coming to me may be his last plea for help. He's a very stubborn person and won't back down until the very last moment. I can't just sit idly by."

Xu Wenyi: "..." How come you have a bully's face but a kind heart?

"Hey, just this once," Xu Wenyi replied to Jiangxi Heng, then warned the excited Nie Mingzhu, "There's one more thing: when someone sends you an address, you have to be careful and don't get scammed. There are a lot of scumbags in the entertainment industry, and once you go to a certain place, you'll be at their mercy."

……

Jiangxi Heng took Chi Ziyou and Fang Weiyang to dinner nearby, and then said to them, "A manager from the Chinese entertainment industry will be coming over in a little while. You two will come with me to meet her."

"Cough cough cough!" Fang Weiyang choked on her water and asked again, "Are you planning to find yourself an agent?"

Jiangxi Heng shook his head: "No, she is Nie Mingzhu's agent. She came to discuss the script. I plan to have Nie Mingzhu make a cameo appearance in this web series."

"puff!"

Fang Weiyang, who had just been drinking water, spat it all out in one gulp.

What? Nie Mingzhu? Isn't that Jiangxi Heng's nemesis? Holy crap, he's making a cameo appearance? Wait, a web series?!

Due to information input overload, Fang Weiyang crashed instantly. When he came to his senses, he found Jiangxi Heng sitting in front of the computer, with the printer next to him buzzing and spitting out papers.

"You didn't film a TV series, you filmed a web series?"

Jiangxi Heng didn't even glance at Fang Weiyang. He was editing a contract template and casually said, "We don't have enough funds... If you two have nothing to do, help me divide the printed script into five copies, one for each of us later."

Fang Weiyang, looking dazed, approached the printer and tidied up the still-warm papers.

Chi Ziyou counted from the side: "One, two, three, four, five, Heng-ge, besides the manager, who else is coming?"

Jiangxi Heng finally finished editing the contract and said, "Nie Mingzhu, didn't I already tell you?"

Fang Weiyang's expression twisted slightly: "When did you say that! You said his manager was coming! My God, I'm going to see Nie Mingzhu!"

Jiangxi Heng found it strange: "You're his fan?"

Fang Weiyang's expression changed, and she looked at Jiang Xiheng with a complicated look in her eyes, then shook her head.

He wasn't a fan of Nie Mingzhu; to be more precise, he was probably a hater of Nie Mingzhu—after all, back then, he was a fan of Jiangxi Heng.

You can't say these things carelessly now.

"Damn! This script is so interesting!" Chi Ziyou had already opened the script and was reading it with great interest. He even called Fang Weiyang over to take a look. Jiangxi Heng said that he would give them two minor roles in the script, and they could just play themselves.

The two are now much more interested in acting.

Fang Weiyang glanced at the composed Jiangxi Heng, took a deep breath, and sat down to open the script.

If the person involved isn't embarrassed, then why should a fan who's unfollowed him feel embarrassed?

As Fang Weiyang read the first line of text, she finally understood why Chi Ziyou had said the script was interesting.

The story begins with the male protagonist dying?

Filled with curiosity about what would happen next, Fang Weiyang became completely engrossed in the story.

Ten minutes later, the story was over.

The ending left Fang Weiyang and Chi Ziyou completely stunned. They exchanged a glance and had the same doubt: Is this really a web series? It feels like it could be made into a movie.

Oh, by the way, Jiangxi Heng said there isn't enough funding.

The two of them immediately felt regretful, wondering why they were so poor, otherwise they would definitely have sponsored the show!
