……
A short while later, Chen Jincheng received another WeChat message. Based on Meng Ziyi's behavior of going to the toilet, he could roughly guess what had happened.
Upon opening it, it was indeed sent by this little flower girl.
It turned out to be a selfie video.
The network on this special business machine is really slow; it took a while to open the video.
In the video, you can see her deliberately winking at the camera, and then starting to unbutton one button of her collar.
Seriously, for a girl who's really got it, this way it's impossible to hide anything, and beautiful scenery will start to appear.
This little flower is clearly like that.
Then comes the second button.
呲呲!
Chen Jincheng felt that it had a high level of appreciation and strong artistic value.
The final scene was absolutely stunning, much better than any sexy swimsuit.
It was the black lace he liked.
He also really likes the type with a small, thin strip.
Take a closer look.
really not bad!
She has excellent financial resources and is likely to become a well-known young actress in the future.
As he looked at it a second time, he noticed a faint scent of perfume wafting into his nose; it was Meng Ziyi, the little flower girl, back again.
Seeing that he was still watching her video, her pretty face was flushed.
After sitting down, seeing that he was still admiring her in front of her, she gave a soft hum and then leaned against his shoulder with a slightly nervous expression.
They filmed him like that, and he watched it so intently, so he just acquiesced to some things.
If he denies it again, he's not a man.
“Although I haven’t seen the whole thing, your bear form is really beautiful,” Chen Jincheng said softly, tilting his head.
"Do you want to see the whole picture?" Meng Ziyi asked in a voice just as soft and weak as a mosquito's buzz.
"Are you trying to seduce me?" Chen Jincheng asked jokingly.
“Not on the plane,” Meng Ziyi replied, seemingly unrelated to the question.
Chen Jincheng smiled and looked at Meng Ziyi's employee information:
Name: Meng Ziyi
Loyalty: 55
Situation: Sigh, I've really gone all out. I've put in so much effort for a jerk. I hope I don't waste my time and get what I want.
This is purely driven by a transactional mindset.
Girls who have been in the entertainment industry for a long time are indeed more open-minded than girls in the online influencer circle once they make a choice.
Thinking it over, he also took out his phone and replied to Xiaohua's WeChat with a series of question marks and a message: "What do you mean by this? Don't do this kind of thing in our Second Starry Sky. I, Chen Jincheng, am not that kind of person."
Looking at the words he typed, Meng Ziyi said speechlessly, "Why are you so defensive? Do you have paranoia? It's like I'm going to threaten you with this."
Chen Jincheng smiled but remained silent.
In his past life, he had seen a lot. Those internet celebrities and stars had used WeChat records as evidence of their past deep and intense interactions with their partners.
When in love, strike straight at the heart of the enemy; when out of love, smash their head with a hammer.
Like Lao Xue, when he was in love, he and that woman must have been partying every night, right? When he stopped loving her, seven years later, that woman still exposed Lao Xue and even released their chat history.
Therefore, he will not allow such a thing to happen.
Meng Ziyi added, "Besides, it was me who sent you the photos and videos, and I was afraid you would expose them."
Chen Jincheng smiled and said, "So, now you have to listen to me obediently. If you don't, I will really expose you as someone who would do anything to seduce me in order to get ahead. Of course, I am a righteous and self-disciplined person who will reject you."
"???" Upon hearing this, Meng Ziyi gently bit his cheek, leaving a shallow tooth mark.
Is this even human language?
"Why are you still biting people?" Chen Jincheng teased. "If you like biting, try biting somewhere else."
"Seriously, it's because there are too many people like you in power that this industry is so chaotic." Meng Ziyi couldn't help but complain, seemingly expressing her dissatisfaction with the industry, as well as her helplessness in having to go with the flow.
Chen Jincheng did not respond to this topic.
What does it matter to someone like him whether this circle is chaotic or not? He just joined, okay?
Who is Chen Jincheng, to have such influence?
Moreover, from top to bottom, from ancient times to the present, has this thing ever changed?
He continued looking at the game in his mind and started playing it again.
Seeing that he hadn't moved again, Meng Ziyi was speechless once more.
As a beautiful woman, she has a long line of suitors. If it were any other man, with her taking the initiative, he would find topics to chat about the whole way and show her all kinds of care.
But look at him, he seems to ignore her completely, as if she has no charm at all?
This is probably the fearlessness of those who are favored.
Just thinking about it, with all those beautiful women around him, it seems he has the right to be so fearless.
I looked up at his profile; he was indeed very handsome.
Forget it, she gave up on that rich second-generation heir who pursued her like that, but she chose this worst man to fall into depravity.
Did you choose it yourself?
Thinking about it, she moved from leaning on his shoulder to leaning closer into his arms.
Flying can be really tiring.
It's more comfortable to lean against like this.
Although Chen Jincheng was playing a game, he wasn't in a meditative state. His hand naturally wrapped around the other half of the object, his palm already grasping it...
Initial impressions are quite good.
After that, he continued playing the game.
Suddenly, a task marked with a gold exclamation mark appeared, immediately catching his attention.
"You've already entered the film and television industry; it's time to tailor-make a film or television series for your artists. Please prepare a script for your newly recruited artists!"
This is a map exploration mission where you control your game character to search for things related to the story on the map.
After running around for ages, he finally finished the task before getting off the plane, submitted it, and received a game hint:
[Congratulations! You have completed the task of preparing scripts for artists and have received a special film and television star hit card!]
[Film and Television Star Hit Card: This is a special card that can be used on your managed artists. As long as your artist has acted in a film or television drama in a previous life, you can tailor-make a hit drama with them as the lead in their previous life. The target artist will also receive a special effect of +1 to Acting Skills and +1 to Charisma!]
Upon seeing this note, Chen Jincheng immediately thought of the initial exhibition card of the internet celebrity.
It's almost the same idea, except that for internet celebrities, the initial card is just to shoot short videos. As long as they've shot them before, the first two videos will get a boost in popularity.
The card is the same now; it requires an artist who acted in film or television dramas in a previous life, that is, a star in a previous life.
The same principle applies to tailoring a hit drama with the protagonist being from a previous life.
Short videos and TV dramas are incomparable. Therefore, the Internet celebrity initial exhibition card is a reward for daily tasks, and this card can only be obtained by clicking the gold exclamation mark.
If that were all, the card wouldn't seem particularly special. After all, a hit drama from the previous life, when remade, resonates with the same emotions, so it's bound to be a hit. But if the actors used have an extra level of acting skill and an extra level of charisma, then it's a different story.
Like in my past life, many actors became hits, but their acting skills weren't widely recognized or particularly impactful. They succeeded because of good scripts and engaging plots. As long as their acting wasn't embarrassing, it was acceptable, and people would still watch the show.
Typical examples include Xiao Zhan and Li Yifeng.
Both of them debuted in incredibly popular dramas with such good scripts that people didn't pay much attention to their acting skills.
But if the drama is mediocre and the script isn't very good, and the actors need to rely on their acting skills to carry the show, they can't hold their own and will be criticized for their acting.
It took Li Yifeng several years to change people's perception of him. Naturally, it was a pity that he was arrested and blacklisted when he achieved success.
Chen Jincheng had suspected from the beginning that it was a setup, that he had been tricked.
Seriously, it's like comparing him to someone who's handsome, rich, and good-looking. What girl couldn't he have? Why would he need to go looking for an animal that looks ordinary?
Of course, it's also possible that Li Yifeng has some special hobbies, which is something we can't control.
Another type is a hit drama with a great script, but the acting is so bad that it gets criticized by the audience, which affects the drama. A typical example is "Village Flower".
In fact, many young actresses also exhibit this phenomenon.
When a drama becomes a hit, with a great plot and a fast pace, their acting skills are overlooked. But once they switch to another drama, people start saying that their acting is bad.
Therefore, the +1 to acting skills and +1 to charisma are amazing.
Although I don't know how amazing +1 level is, it will definitely be better and more powerful than before. In that case, I can use my acting skills and charisma to make the show even more popular and surpass the previous one.
Many scripts are mediocre, but the lead actors' acting skills and charisma have made quite a few hits.
So, this card is still quite good.
He suddenly glanced at Meng Ziyi, who had fallen asleep in his arms, and tried out the popular movie star card.
The game system notification sounded again:
[The current target meets the criteria for using the movie star hit card. The number of customizable scripts is 1, and the script is "Jiu Zhong Zi". An original novel exists in the current world, but the host does not possess the corresponding copyright, so customization is not possible!]
Chen Jincheng was taken aback; there were clearly still limitations.
The plane landed at the airport, and Meng Ziyi woke up. She took Chen Jincheng's hand off her bear, tidied her hair, and hugged his arm after he got up, just like a real couple, without any awkwardness.
Sun Ji and his men saw this scene from behind; this girl was sensible after all.
He didn't feel that arranging these things for his boss was being a sycophant, because his boss had given him a raise, and with the continued development of Ershi Xingchen, there would definitely be an option reward plan.
Rumor has it that the boss and Sister Hong were chatting and he mentioned that he would prepare a large stock option reward for Sister Hong.
He knew very well that Second Star Company was now being valued at over 300 billion. If he could get stock options as a reward, how much money would that be?
Financial freedom is a certainty.
Therefore, if you don't show your abilities and create more positive impressions, you'll be more likely to get promoted and receive more stock options in the future.
Besides, aside from being a bit of a womanizer, this boss usually delegates a lot of authority. The key is that he has a great vision and perspective. There's no need to worry about the company not doing well; in fact, the company will do even better. As a senior executive, his social status will also rise.
Therefore, he was happy to serve as the emperor's trusted eunuch.
"The boss is really charismatic," one of the accompanying employees couldn't help but say.
“When you’re blind, you can’t see,” Sun Ji said calmly.
The other person smiled and said, "Anyone who would come along is a fool."
None of them are stupid, and they are all blind.
I can't see anything, I can't see anything at all.
After getting off the plane, Meng Ziyi couldn't help but say, "Now that I'm with you, what are you planning to do with me? You've already fully funded Tian Xiwei to be the female lead."
"What did you say?" Chen Jincheng teased, "That's not right of you. You haven't even put in any effort yet, and you're already asking for compensation?"
"What? Now you can do whatever you want?" Meng Ziyi rarely acted coquettishly, which was completely out of character for her. It really proved the saying that any woman can act coquettishly if she wants to; it's an innate ability of theirs.
The difference lies in whether or not there is someone they can act cute with.
Chen Jincheng smiled and led Meng Ziyi and Sun Ji out of the exit. They saw a banner held high that read: "The cast of 'Cheng Qing Ling' welcomes the female lead."
Meng Ziyi immediately noticed the banner; it was too obvious.
This made her sigh. Look at other people, the leading lady, the crew gives her such a high-profile welcome, how much face they give her.
In the same production team as "The Untamed," she had a minor role and probably wouldn't have been noticeable at all. Fortunately, Chen Jincheng came with people from Ershixingchen Film and Television this time. If they invested, no one in the production team could bully her.
But as she was thinking about it, she realized something was wrong.
Because under the banner welcoming the female lead from the "Cheng Qing Ling" drama crew, there were people holding signs.
Her name, 'Meng Ziyi', is also written on it.
What do you mean?
Could the female lead welcomed by the crew of "The Untamed" be her?
When did she become the female lead?
Isn't Wenqing just a minor character?
She instinctively looked at Chen Jincheng and asked expectantly, "Did you arrange this?"
Chen Jincheng was also taken aback. This really had nothing to do with him. He didn't know either. Although in his previous life, Wen Qing's role was given a lot more screen time and she was elevated to the position of the female lead because she brought her own investment to the production, the situation had changed in this world.
There's no reason for the production team to change the heartwarming scenes again.
Of course, some people say that it's because some plot points involving two male leads are vulgar, so a female character had to be changed to pass censorship. That's nonsense. There are so many female characters, why change this one in particular?
Given the current situation, Wen Qing's character has clearly been elevated to the level of the female lead.
At this moment, Sun Ji stepped forward with a smile and explained: "Xiao Meng, after you signed the contract, the boss specially arranged with the production team to change the script for your role. He said he would rather lose money than let you play a minor supporting role and would give you another drama as the female lead."
Chen Jincheng understood; it was all Sun Ji's doing.
Increase wages, must increase wages!
Once Ershixingchen Film and Television Network has successfully established itself, the film and television department should be reorganized into two departments: Cheng Film and Television Network and film and television production. At that time, this guy can be promoted to the position of vice president in charge of film and television production.
Who wouldn't like a capable and sensible subordinate?
"Why didn't you say anything?" When Meng Ziyi heard Sun Ji's words, she looked at Chen Jincheng and her eyes instantly became watery. No wonder they say women are made of water.
When I'm moved, tears stream down my face.
Beyond the emotional impact, is there any acting skill involved?
Sun Ji quickly continued to explain, "Xiao Meng, you'll get used to it. The boss is the kind of person who likes to do good things quietly, he doesn't just talk about it, unlike those who make empty promises."
Meng Ziyi hugged Chen Jincheng's arm even tighter.
She likes to offer something without making empty promises, but rather to quietly deliver the promised benefits.
Chen Jincheng sensed Xiaohua's actions and looked at the girl's employee information in his mind with a smile on his face:
Name: Meng Ziyi.
Loyalty: 70
Situation: I didn't expect that he had done so much for me in silence. Can't he just say it?
Chen Jincheng smiled. Indeed, in this world, you still have to be sincere to be sincere.
