Although Han Ni didn't want to be treated like a beast of burden, Yang Hongdou was not about to grant him his wish.

It wasn't that she necessarily wanted to exploit Han Ni; she just had no choice because the company had too much business.

Recruiting talent, building a team, setting up various departments, and a whole host of other things kept me incredibly busy.

All I could do was send all the invitations and character card information I had collected from various production teams to Han Ni for his reference.

In fact, given Li Yitong and Bai Lu's current situation, they have almost no choice or room for maneuver. They should be grateful that the production team is willing to give them a chance.

Of course, some people in some production crews do have ulterior motives and dirty thoughts.

They just set up a trap without even scattering any bait, hoping to trick Li Yitong and Bai Lu into being deceived.

Damn it, one of these two is my woman, and the other is a woman I highly regard. How can I tolerate others coveting them?

Shameless, absolutely shameless.

Han Ni immediately blocked these people, vowing to avoid cooperating with them altogether in the future.

Of course, there are bad things, and there are good things too.

For example, "The Legend of Mi Yue" is produced by a large company, a large project, and a large production.

Unfortunately, Han Ni didn't dare to even dream of it. Because even if he tried his hardest, he probably wouldn't be able to get in.

With no other option, he had to settle for second best and started looking for roles in small companies, small projects, roles that lacked funding and had no competition from other well-known actors.

Ultimately, Han Ni selected the following projects: "The Man Who Grows on a Bread Tree", "Bringing an Emperor Back to Modern Times", "The Obsessive Master", "Love Through a Thousand Years", and "Love Without a Trace" as an alternative.

These are all projects without much recognition, lacking funds and resources, and naturally, lacking actors as well.

Such projects are unlikely to make someone an overnight sensation, but practicing acting skills and accumulating experience can still lead to occasional breakout success.

So, there is competition, but it's not too intense.

Li Yitong and Bai Lu's biggest weaknesses are their lack of background and connections, their lack of formal education, and their lack of acting skills and experience.

Her biggest advantage is that she is beautiful, a social media influencer, and very famous.

Han Ni's requirements were not high, nor did he have high hopes.

As long as there are suitable roles for Li Yitong and Bai Lu in these projects, both of them can audition.

Of course, if Sister Meng is interested, she can give it a try. Anyway, her schoolwork isn't too demanding, and she can start acting as a sophomore.

As for Da Xi, while filming for "Qin's Moon" is not yet complete, the role of Li Yueya has already been cast in "Wu Xin: The Monster Killer".

She's an artist from Tangren, with inexhaustible resources, so Han Ni doesn't need to worry about her.

After handing over the projects he had selected to Yang Hongdou, Han Ni stopped worrying about them and began to focus on filming every day.

Time always flies when you're busy; in the blink of an eye, October has arrived.

After more than half a month of continuous auditions, Li Yitong, Bai Lu, and Meng Ziyi actually made some successes.

Li Yitong unexpectedly landed an important role as Feng Feng/Feng Miaolian in "Bringing an Emperor Back to Modern Times".

One actress plays two roles: the weak empress Feng Miaolian in ancient times and the independent woman Feng Feng in modern times.

Li Yitong, a graduate of the Beijing Dance Academy, naturally possesses an elegant temperament and can perfectly embody both ancient and modern images.

Her profound dance skills were the key to defeating others and winning the role, which is quite a lucky thing.

Bai Lu landed the role of Qu Xiaowan in the first season of "The Obsessive Master," a domineering, valiant, and decisive woman.

Her personality and temperament were a perfect match for the role, and she finally won the role after many efforts.

As for Sister Meng, she unexpectedly landed a role as Zhao Nana in "Love Through a Millennium".

She plays a spoiled and glamorous popular actress, which perfectly matches Sister Meng's proud and adorable personality, bright appearance, and the aura of a rich heiress.

It's basically a natural performance for her, so it shouldn't be too difficult for Sister Meng.

Han Ni was stunned when he heard the news. He didn't know if it was because he was too lucky or because the three girls were so capable that they succeeded so easily.

In fact, according to the normal situation in the entertainment industry, it is normal for three people to fail dozens of times.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be so much filth and unspoken rules in the industry.

However, something is not right now, and even Han Ni himself is confused.

"Fame, fame, it's all about fame."

"A celebrity's fame is fame, and an internet celebrity's fame is also fame." Yang Hongdou happily told Han Ni, "As long as you have fans and fame, you have a great advantage."

Leaving you aside, Tongtong, Bailu, and Sister Meng are all Weibo influencers with millions of followers, bringing huge traffic and topics of discussion.

Moreover, the three of them were paid very little, pitifully little, almost the same as male models.

Unless the producers, directors, and production team are idiots, how could they possibly refuse such a huge benefit?

If you don't believe me, just think about yourself.

If you didn't have a huge following and the support of fans of the original work, it would have been a pipe dream to land the role of Jing Tianming.

Hello, this is the internet age. I feel like I'm falling behind; I underestimated the influence and value of online traffic.

Your influence is now comparable to that of a top-tier second-tier celebrity, while Tongtong and the others have at least the influence of a third-tier celebrity.

"There is a fundamental difference between internet celebrities and stars; you can't simply compare them based on the number of fans and their influence," Han Ni said, still appearing remarkably clear-headed.

"However, you are different from other internet celebrities. Tongtong and Bailu are also different from other internet celebrities."

"Your fans are incredibly loyal. They follow your every move closely and dedicate a lot of time and energy to it; they are your true fans." Yang Hongdou explained, "I've spoken with Sister Xing, and she's also having an agency assess your influence and market value."

The result was terrifying.

"What was the result?" Han Ni asked curiously.

"Your appeal, influence, and fan loyalty are unparalleled across the entire internet," Yang Hongdou replied. "Your market value is basically comparable to that of a top-tier celebrity; it just needs a process of verification."

"Sister Dou Dou, don't joke around, or I'll get arrogant." Han Ni didn't believe it.

"I don't believe it either, but we must trust the experts and science," Yang Hongdou emphasized.

Come on, so much for experts and science. Once "Qin's Moon" airs on satellite TV, we'll probably see its influence and value.

Han Ni didn't think much of the show; if he became famous but the show didn't, he would consider himself lucky.

If a person's career declines and their acting skills deteriorate, it will be very difficult for them to regain their former glory and make a comeback.

That's why he agreed to Tangren's three film and television contracts in one go.

If "Qin's Moon" fails, he will probably need to rely on "Wu Xin: The Monster Killer" to get back on his feet.

At that time, whether he plays Wuxin or Zhang Xianzong, he will have the opportunity to start over.

The Tang people have their own plans, and Han Ni has his own ideas. In this day and age, nobody is a fool.

The victor is king, the loser is villain; it all depends on one's own ability. A bet is a bet, and one should accept defeat without regret, even unto death!
