Chapter 413 How about we create a scandal?

"A sigh in vain."

A flight attendant's concern

One is the moon reflected in the water.

One is a flower in a mirror.

In my eyes

How many tears can there be?

How can one endure the autumn's flow until the winter's end?

Spring flows into summer

what

... "

The ending scene of the theme song shows Jia Baoyu sitting in front of an empty bed, his face full of sadness, regret, helplessness and sorrow.

With Chen Xu's long, drawn-out vocals, the song "Wang Ningmei" fully expressed the tender love between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu, leaving many fans heartbroken.

So, even though I know this drama is a tragedy, should I still watch it?

[I've noticed that if this were a novel, it definitely wouldn't survive past the first three chapters, let alone have a tragic ending; it would definitely be abandoned. But when it's adapted into a TV series, I have a feeling that people are willing to be killed off? The more tragic it is, the more people love to watch it. What's the logic behind this?]

[I've already topped up my TuKu.com membership and am eagerly awaiting the release of "Dream of the Red Chamber" on August 25th! I hope TuKu.com doesn't follow the example of SuperTV and iQiyi, constantly offering "super members" for early access! Seriously, I've already paid for a membership, and they still want me to subscribe to "super members"?]

[There won't be any premium members getting early access because the show isn't even finished filming yet! Tuku.com can't even offer early access because the series hasn't finished filming! It's hilarious!]

……

Seeing that no one in the comments section was criticizing his singing or acting, Chen Xu finally felt relieved after worrying for several days.

I reached out and touched it, only to find that I had finished eating the sunflower seeds while I was in a panic. So I picked up the water glass next to me and took a sip of water.

Li Hong calmed down at this point: "It looks pretty good. In just over an hour, it has already received over 20 likes, and I think everyone is really looking forward to the release of our first drama."

Relieved, Chen Xu immediately became quick-witted: "Of course! This is my sister's first leading role in a drama, there are definitely tons of people waiting to watch it!"

Chen Xu stretched out her hand and grabbed at the air in front of her, as if there were many fans waiting to be grabbed. As she grabbed, she saw a man wearing swim trunks, a man with a streamlined muscular body, appear in front of her.

"what?"

Chen Xu's face flushed slightly: "Brother Xian, what are you going to do?"

Ye Xian picked up a towel and dried his head and body, then plopped down on the beach chair next to Chen Xu: "The TV series is about to be released, so we should be running around doing variety shows and appearing on programs to promote our new film."

"and then?"

When Chen Xu and Li Hong heard Ye Xian talking about serious matters, they immediately sat up straight.

"But our filming is not completely finished, especially our scenes. It won't be finished until the end of the month at the earliest. Also, I don't have time to do variety shows. I'm about to start filming 'Hello Mr. Billionaire'."

Ye Xian picked up the chilled watermelon juice from the side, took a sip, and found it delicious.

"so what?"

Chen Xu and Li Hong sensed something was wrong.

"So, after you finish filming your scenes at the end of the month, follow Uncle Ding's arrangement and join Li Xin and the others, along with Sister Tian and Sister Xiaoxiao, to start appearing on variety shows."

Ye Xian shrugged, and the two immediately understood that Ye Xian was not planning to participate in the promotion and publicity of "Dream of the Red Chamber".

Chen Xu's face darkened: "Brother Xian, you're the male lead. If you're not going to participate, why should we? Besides, I'm a newcomer playing the female lead. Sister Tian and Sister Xiao Xiao are already feeling awkward. Do you think it's appropriate for us all to participate in a variety show together?"

Jiang Tian plays Wang Xifeng, and Liu Xiaoxiao plays Xue Baochai. These two top-tier second-tier actresses are playing concubines to Chen Xu, a newcomer who has just debuted. This shows that the drama is an ensemble piece, and the two actresses' main purpose is to obtain Ye Xian's song, not the drama itself. Otherwise, if it were anyone else in the entertainment industry, it would have caused a huge uproar long ago.

The entertainment industry is one of the most hierarchical places. A big star is a big star, and you can't just step on them if you want, unless the investors give you enough money.

Chen Xu was always very careful in his interactions with his two seniors. He would always think of them when he had something good to eat or drink, and he would bow his head and greet them when they met, never daring to be arrogant in the slightest.

It's rare to find a leading lady who faces such a difficult role.

Fortunately, Jiang Tian and Liu Xiaoxiao didn't put on airs, because they weren't as arrogant as Ye Xian.

Ye Xian didn't take it to heart at all and laughed, "It's alright, they won't bully you. You know, they'll all be begging me to cooperate on the next few big productions. Your relationship will only get better and better in the future."

Ye Xian knew all too well the intricacies involved; he had long heard the saying, "When you become famous, you'll be surrounded by good people."

However, Ye Xian is rich now!

Straighten your back!

Hard!

It's no longer about quick and easy results.

He is now fully capable of disregarding all collaborators and making the films he wants to make single-handedly, casting the actresses he chooses to use.

However, Ye Xian knew the saying "the tallest tree catches the most wind" and "the first bird to stick its head out gets shot," and he was also aware of the importance of connections and channels in the entertainment industry. Therefore, he always clung tightly to the Sixth Princess's big white legs, using her as a banner and carrying her at the forefront.

With the protection of the imperial merchant's alias, Ye Xian made money so easily; otherwise, he might not even be able to invite a few TV stations to a screening of "Dream of the Red Chamber."

Ye Xian has successfully transformed from a small blogger into an investor. With his talent and continuous output, he will only attract more people in the industry to support him. Therefore, Jiang Tian and Liu Xiaoxiao will not stop Ye Xian from making Chen Xu famous. On the contrary, they are happy to see it happen and will even help him.

Because they have been trying every means to bind themselves to Ye Xian, temporary gains and losses are nothing.

For actresses, their acting careers only last a few years. It's rare to see a 71-year-old woman playing an 18-year-old girl, monopolizing acting resources, and acting like a tyrant.

Many actresses are already looking for a way out early on. Some are career-oriented, investing and choosing career paths everywhere; some are homebodies, marrying a wealthy second-generation entrepreneur early on; and some start selling products online, giving up their fantasies about acting early on.

Isn't live streaming great?

A seventy-year-old ageless goddess can broadcast for a whole day. Aren't we younger and have more stamina than her?

If she can do it all day, why can't we?

Recently, Jiang Tian and Liu Xiaoxiao have been doing live streams whenever they have free time, and they're getting more and more enthusiastic because they've discovered that selling Qiuye Yanxuan products is really easy money.

Therefore, they no longer had any thoughts or opinions about Chen Xu playing the female lead.

Hearing Ye Xian's explanation, Chen Xu breathed a slight sigh of relief. Li Hong's eyes darted around, and she suddenly asked:

"Hey bro, wanna stir up some scandal?"

Chen Xu's face flushed red instantly, and he grabbed the water glass next to him and shoved it into Li Hong's mouth: "What did you say?"

Li Hong giggled and dodged backward while laughing, saying, "Didn't they always hype up the male and female leads' scandals when promoting TV dramas in the past? I think we can give it a try. It just so happens that Brother Xian's scandals have never stopped."

Ye Xian's face darkened: "When did I ever have any scandals?"

Li Hong couldn't help but laugh: "Don't you have enough scandals already?"
