I became a movie star at the age of three; Dilraba and I are childhood sweethearts.

Xiao Chen raised his head, his deep, night-sky-like eyes looking at her.

The interior was calm and still, yet it seemed as if a certain decision had already been made.

"Have you started preparing those three variety show proposals I gave you before?"

Wang Jinhua was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening.

"Yes, preparations have already begun. Why are you suddenly asking this?"

These three proposals were written by Xiao Chen specifically for Wang Jinhua.

They are "Back to Field", "Divas Hit the Road", and "Go Fighting!"

Every idea is at least five years ahead of its time.

Actually, Wang Jinhua still doesn't quite understand what the highlights are, but that doesn't stop her from making preparations.

She just didn't expect that Xiao Chen would suddenly bring it up.

Xiao Chen's words were concise and to the point.

"I'm going to attend one."

Wang Jinhua's heart skipped a beat!

Participating in variety shows?

Has the sun risen in the west?

She suppressed her inner elation and tried her best to keep her voice steady.

Which one do you want to participate in?

"The Life I Long For"

"The farming one?"

Of the three proposals, this one left the deepest impression on Wang Jinhua.

Imagine a group of celebrities going to the countryside to chop wood, start a fire, farm, and cook for themselves, becoming self-sufficient.

In her opinion, this is simply... the least variety show-like variety show ever.

There was neither intense game competition nor elaborate stage setting.

It was as bland as a glass of plain water.

She simply couldn't understand why Xiao Chen would choose this.

Xiao Chen nodded in confirmation.

"Um."

Wang Jinhua composed herself, and her years of professional experience allowed her to quickly get into work mode.

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

"So, you'll be a guest star for only one episode, just like before?"

"How about promoting 'A Little Reunion'?"

This is Xiao Chen's usual practice when participating in variety shows.

I'll go to one episode, show my face, complete the promotional task, and never stay any longer.

However, this time, she was wrong.

Xiao Chen shook his head and uttered two words.

"permanent."

The air seemed to freeze.

Wang Jinhua's thermos cup wobbled, and the scalding hot tea almost spilled out.

Her eyes widened, almost thinking she had misheard.

"Permanent... permanent residence?"

Xiao Chen's tone was completely calm, as if he were talking about something perfectly ordinary.

"Yes, a regular guest."

Wang Jinhua was completely stunned by this news.

This shocked her, the top agent who had single-handedly transformed Xiao Chen from a three-year-old to an Oscar-winning actor.

permanent?

Xiao Chen, who wished he could disappear from the earth except for the film set and his home, is going to become a regular guest on a farming variety show.

However, after the initial shock, an even stronger surge of ecstasy welled up inside him.

This is fantastic news!

Wang Jinhua has been in the industry for so many years, she has a sharp eye.

She had already keenly sensed that with the rapid development of the internet and mobile media, the rules of the entertainment industry were quietly changing.

The upcoming year 2010 will be a watershed moment.

The term "traffic" will become increasingly important.

An artist's exposure, popularity, and fan loyalty will be directly linked to their commercial value.

The era of "even the best wine needs advertising" is coming.

Many veteran actors with superb acting skills have had their works go unnoticed because they rarely appear in public and lack media attention.

Gradually, it was forgotten by the market.

Xiao Chen's current popularity is undoubtedly among the top in the world, unmatched by anyone.

Even the highest mountain cannot withstand the wind and rain over the years.

To remain invincible in this industry, one must keep up with the times and maintain continuous exposure.

Wang Jinhua had considered this idea before, but she knew Xiao Chen's temperament too well.

This guy is the type who'd rather eat sand on set for three months than laugh for even a second longer on a variety show.

Unexpectedly, he suddenly had a breakthrough today!

Although she still couldn't understand what was so appealing about that ordinary farming variety show that could make this big shot nod in approval.

But as long as he's willing, she'll arrange everything for him, whether it's farming or hunting tigers in the mountains!

"Okay! No problem! I'll go meet with the project team right away. This project, immediately! Right now!"

"Classified as the company's highest priority (S+)!"

Wang Jinhua made a quick decision, her voice filled with barely concealed excitement.

She seemed to have received a shot of adrenaline, and her whole being was full of energy.

"Oh, right."

She suddenly remembered the details in the proposal.

"This show needs other regular guests. Do you want to choose them yourself, or let the company arrange it?"

Given Xiao Chen's current status, if he wants to collaborate with someone, probably no one in the entire entertainment industry would refuse.

Xiao Chen seemed to have already thought it through; he recited three names almost without hesitation.

"Brother, Sister Mei, and Dilraba."

Leslie Cheung.

Mui Yan-fang.

Dilraba.

Wang Jinhua's eyes lit up instantly when she heard these three names.

Reliable!

That's so reliable!

Leslie Cheung and Anita Mui are the most dazzling legendary superstars of this era, and the white moonlight in the hearts of countless people.

Their relationship with Xiao Chen is as close as family; getting them to come out of retirement would be no problem at all.

As for Dilraba, her drama "A Little Reunion" co-starring Xiao Chen will be released soon, and many people will pay attention to her then.

It might even gain widespread popularity.

A sentiment of an era, the pinnacle of an era, plus a hope for the future.

This guest lineup is absolutely amazing!

No publicity is needed; simply putting these four names together is enough to ignite the entire internet.

Wang Jinhua thought about it more and more and felt that this was feasible, so she casually asked a question.

"I saw in the proposal that the guests need to cook for themselves... Does any of you know how to cook?"

When she asked this question, she subconsciously went through the four people in her mind.

Leslie Cheung was known for his refined lifestyle, believing that a gentleman should stay away from the kitchen.

Sister Mei is a true boss, with an aura that's two meters and eighty centimeters tall. The thought of her cooking is too beautiful to imagine.

As for Dilraba, that little girl, she probably hasn't even been in the kitchen more than a few times.

that……

Her gaze returned to Xiao Chen, with a hint of inquiry.

Then, she heard Xiao Chen utter two more words in that calm and even tone.

"I can."

Wang Jinhua fell silent.

She stared at the outrageously handsome face before her, her mind going completely blank.

You can?

What can you do?

Are you going to blow up the kitchen?

From the time the child was three years old, either his mother, Ye Huimei, or he himself took care of his daily life like a little emperor.

Forget cooking, she'd never even seen him peel an apple himself!

Wang Jinhua opened her mouth, as if to say something.

But looking into Xiao Chen's calm and determined eyes, all the words of doubt stuck in his throat.

Forget it.

What can be said now that things have come to this?

At worst, we can hire a chef to secretly wait on the sidelines.

but……

Wang Jinhua did indeed have some expectations for this program.

Let these four extraordinary individuals gather in a small rural courtyard and live a self-sufficient life.

Just imagining the scene...

It seems there's actually some interest to it.
