Huayu: We're asking you to act, and you're playing a superhuman?

Inside the Executive Suite at the St. Regis Hotel.

Li Xue checked the items she needed to buy for the new house while adding items to the calendar.

After finalizing the arrangements for the next month, she picked up her laptop and went to the bedroom door. Before knocking, she even straightened out non-existent wrinkles on her clothes.

"Knock knock knock!"

"Please come in."

Li Xue pushed open the door and entered, her gaze shifting from the neatly arranged bed to the floor-to-ceiling window, but she found nothing.

Just as she was wondering where the chuunibyou boss was, a slow-speaking voice suddenly came from the side.

"Have all the tasks been arranged?"

Li Xue turned her head and looked at the scene that came into view, which made her calmness vanish instantly.

Wang Weili was standing upright against the wall, feet together, back straight, with a thick hardcover novel balanced on his head and another book in his hand, which he was flipping through.

What the hell is this design?!

Li Xue was mentally criticizing Wang Weili, so much so that she ignored his question earlier.

Wang Weili stopped fiddling with the pages of the book, and while keeping his neck still, he shifted his gaze to Li Xue: "To-do list?"

"Oh, everything's arranged."

Li Xue looked down at her notebook to hide her expression.

Many celebrities in the entertainment industry have quirks. Practicing posture by balancing books on their heads is just average and nothing to be surprised about.

After convincing herself mentally, Li Xue calmly said, "Boss, your personal studio is expected to be registered this month. Several companies have expressed interest in the film and television adaptation rights of 'Gu Jian Qi Tan' that you bought before, with Huanrui Century being the most interested."

Huanrui...

Wang Weili slowly closed the book in his hands, and the words "Dragon Raja II: The Eyes of the Mourners" were prominently printed on the black cover.

Li Xue glanced at the novel cover and remembered that Wang Weili had specifically asked her to buy it from the bookstore yesterday after they finished dealing with the moving arrangements.

Wang Weili tapped the novel cover: "Let me briefly introduce Huanrui's situation."

Li Xue's fingers slid quickly across the notebook, the information she had prepared reflected in her glasses.

"Huanrui's predecessor was Sanhe Film & Television. In its early days, it collaborated with Yu Zheng on several period dramas. Last year, due to the huge success of 'Palace,' Yu Zheng chose to leave Huanrui and go solo."

"Without Yu Zheng, Huanrui is also seeking new development possibilities. In recent years, fantasy dramas have performed well, with the Legend of Sword and Fairy series and Xuan-Yuan Sword being successful examples of game adaptations."

"Our current advantage is that we hold the film and television adaptation rights to 'Gu Jian Qi Tan'. Boss, you have also accumulated a certain degree of popularity through 'Xuan-Yuan Sword'. Among the male leads in fantasy dramas, you are second only to Hu Ge."

Upon hearing this, Wang Weili's eyes revealed a clear look of contemplation.

Li Xue stood still, waiting quietly.

Wang Weili purchased the film and television adaptation rights for "Gu Jian Qi Tan" 10 years ago when the game was launched, with the aim of quickly accumulating popularity.

Now he has some new ideas, such as how to integrate the roles he needs to play into film and television performances to improve the acting process.

[Currently portraying: Chu Zihang, the male protagonist of the novel "Dragon Raja II"]

[Character Skills: Swordsmanship Mastery, Ultimate Physical Fitness Enhanced by Dragon Blood, Blood Burst, Word of Power: Monarch's Flame]

[Difficulty Level: Beginner Village]

[Playing progress: 0%]

[Host's current popularity level: Beginner Village]

[System suggestion: Please engage in in-depth role-playing based on the character's life experiences and personality traits. Character skills will be unlocked as you progress in the role-playing.]

[OS: As the role-playing progresses, the character's dragon blood attribute will gradually awaken, and the player's appeal to ordinary people will also increase...]

Previously, when playing NPC roles, Wang Weili simply imitated the characters in the movies, which allowed him to quickly complete the first 50% of the role-playing process and unlock various skills.

The remaining 50% of the progress was achieved by him slowly advancing based on the character's skills reaching a certain goal.

Now that the difficulty level has increased to the beginner village stage, the character's skills have been greatly improved, and the difficulty seems to have increased exponentially as well.

Wang Weili imitated Chu Zihang's habit of balancing the book on his head in the novel, but his progress was completely stalled, proving that things weren't as simple as they seemed.

After removing the Dragon I badge from his head, Wang Weili turned to look at Li Xue.

"Could you arrange a meeting for me with H&R Century Pictures? Tell them I want to talk to them as an investor and the male lead about how to produce this drama."

"OK."

Li Xue answered immediately, glancing subconsciously at the novel in Wang Weili's hand.

Wang Weili: "Is there anything else?"

"Mihoyo has chosen a new office location and seems to be preparing a simple opening ceremony. They've invited graduates from Shanghai Jiao Tong University, and they called to ask if you want to attend."

"time?"

"This weekend."

Wang Weili considered the time and decided to attend anyway.

He is a major shareholder and board member of miHoYo, and is obligated to participate in major company events. Furthermore, there are very few die-hard fans at Shanghai Jiao Tong University.

Just be a little careful then.

After confirming the tasks to be handled, Li Xue was preparing to leave the room.

As she reached the door, she suddenly remembered something and turned back, saying, "Oh, right! You received two calls from people outside of work, seemingly from your 'friends' at Tangren. I only got a few words before they hung up."

"...Bring my phone in later."

Wang Weili has two mobile phones, one for personal use and one for work.

Since the contract was terminated yesterday, his work account has been handed over to Li Xue.

Li Xue emphasized the word "friend," which means that the person who called was definitely not someone like Jiang Jinfu or Lin Gengxin, who were just casual acquaintances.

Looking at the notes left in the call log, Wang Weili's face showed "I knew it."

The first call came from Liu Shishi, so I called back.

"Feed..."

"Where did you go? Who answered the phone yesterday? What are your plans now...?"

"Wait, wait, you're asking too many questions. Let's take them one at a time."

Wang Weili wiped away non-existent sweat and explained Li Xue's existence and his plans to Liu Shishi in a gentle and kind manner.

"You actually have a private account?"

"Isn't this standard procedure?"

"What do you mean by 'normal procedure'? I have to go filming now. Send me your number later!"

"..."

As Wang Weili listened to the silence on his phone, he felt that Liu Shishi seemed to have become much more domineering since he last saw her.

After sending his private number via text message, Wang Weili called back the second call from Naza.

"Hello, is this Willie?"

Naza's voice was soft and gentle, like a gentle breeze.

Wang Weili laughed and said, "It's me. I'm sorry, I gave my phone to my assistant yesterday and didn't answer your call."

"It's nothing. Um, Willie, are you still in Shanghai?"

"You want to treat me to dinner?"

"Yeah! Let's have lunch together later!"

Wang Weili originally just wanted to make a joke, but he didn't expect Naza to be so proactive. It would seem a bit impolite to refuse.
