Chapter 60 Keeping the Second Villain (22)(1/2)
The kiss that night made Chu Chen bolder in expressing his love. However, Chu Chen was too busy with work to implement his date plan.
He went out early and came back late every day. When he returned to his residence, Lin Shi had already gone to bed, and he didn't even have time to ask for the 'goodnight kiss' he wanted.
Seeing that the relationship has finally taken a step forward, but there is no time to be alone at all, and can only communicate with each other through mobile phones every day.
"Brother Fu, why are the recent announcements so tight?" It was so tight that he didn't even have time to eat with his 'little benefactor'.
Brother Fu just hung up the phone to discuss cooperation, turned around and looked at Chu Chen, looked at the cyan color under Chu Chen’s eyes, and gave an explanation:
"Because the time of the "Tomorrow Star" talent show that I signed up for has changed and it was recorded in advance. In order to free up the recording time, I have adjusted your announcement time. It will be fine if you are busy for the past few days."
"I remember I signed for the judges, not the contestants, right?"
Chu Chen put down the script in his hand, a little confused. He knew something about that talent show, and he also understood the rules. Don’t the judges only need to sit in the audience to comment?
"Since this show has been questioned by the audience as having a shady story, the show has changed the selection method. In the back, there are some interactions between the judges and the contestants. You can think of it as a brand new show."
"You didn't tell me this kind of thing!"
Surprise flashed across Chu Chen's eyes, his brows furrowed, and his face darkened.
He remembered that the person in front of him just mentioned it to him casually, and since he had just signed the contract, he agreed because he believed that the other party would not cheat him.
He originally thought he would just sit there and watch others perform, but now he was told that he also had to perform. He remembered that "Tomorrow's Star" needed to be recorded in other places. Seeing that the arrangement took a long time, Chu Chen felt a little reluctant.
"I asked you after reading the script they gave me and after careful consideration. After all, I think the new selection method is beneficial to you." Brother Fu expressed his thoughts at the time.
"What if I don't want to go now?"
"Do you think it's possible with your recent popularity on the Internet?"
Surprise flashed in Brother Fu's eyes. He didn't ask Chu Chen why he suddenly didn't want to go, he just made a rational analysis.
If Chu Chen is still not as popular as before or is in a situation where the whole network is black, then the program team may consider replacing him, but when the other party invited him, they were also interested in his popularity at the time, so how could they agree to his not participating.
"That's right, Brother Chu, Brother Fu is right. Although there were shady news about this column before, the topic itself is very popular, and I also like to watch it." Assistant Xiao Chen agreed.
"This program can indeed provide good exposure." Sister Zhang on the side also expressed her opinion.
"Well, I understand."
After having this conversation, Chu Chen kept a cold face throughout the next announcement, which made other artists who collaborated with him feel even more stressed.
On the other side, a message reminder suddenly popped up on the phone. Lin Shi, who was happily eating melon on the Internet, flashed a hint of surprise. He glanced at the clock hanging on the wall, clicked on the message, and saw that it was actually a "
Cute emoticon of "please touch me".
Lin Shi didn't understand. The endless greetings and occasional expressions of love during the three meals a day were all under the pretext of "support" and they were fulfilling the obligation of "accompanying". Now he actually said that he was wronged.
Expression, what kind of stimulation is this?
Looking at the man on TV who was shooting the criminal with a gun with an indifferent expression, Lin Shi imagined that the man was lying on his lap like a large dog, begging to be petted, and he suddenly got goosebumps all over his body.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
"Brother Fu said that there is a program that needs to be recorded in advance, in other places."
Lin Shi looked at the three words "outside" and wanted to highlight them. He seemed to feel Chu Chen's resentment. He slightly raised the corner of his mouth and typed three words:
"Then what?"
"I will miss you."
"so?"
"Can you stay up late tonight? I want to see you. So pitiful jpg"
Looking at the pitiful emoticon, Lin Shi's eyes were filled with smiles, but he did not reply to Chu Chen.
The 'goodnight kiss' from a few days ago came to mind. If he didn't know what the other person wanted to do, his life would have been in vain.
He has a copy of the other party's schedule in his mobile phone. He knows that the other party is busy during this period and has deliberately gone to bed early these days. He just wants to see what the other party will do.
It's hard for the other party to hold it in for so long. He is so busy every day and still finds time to send him a message. It reminds him of Qin Xing in the previous world. Even though the two of them live together, once the other party leaves for a business trip for a few days, it will become special.
Stick to him.
"Xiaosi, when will he think of me?"
After that night, he had a "peaceful and friendly" exchange with System 004.
From System 004, I finally learned that my lover's soul is very powerful, so powerful that even System 004 is afraid, and can even see the virtual cat image of System 004, and this is by no means an ability that ordinary souls can possess.
Even he can't see another tasker's system.
This conclusion made Lin Shi very happy. It meant that the encounter in this world was not accidental. Maybe, they could still be together in the next world, and the next world after that.
However, what makes him regretful now is that the other party has no memory of the previous world. Chu Chen, who has no memory of the previous world, always feels a bit uninteresting to Lin Shi.
【Master, I don’t know this.】
"Yeah, I know, I'm just asking."
【】
He still had dreams related to Qin Xing every night, as if he had experienced it all over again, but in the end, he would always look like Chu Chen, which made him feel an inexplicable sense of shame.
Lin Shi, who secretly made up his mind to give someone a surprise, suppressed his thoughts, ignored Chu Chen's pitiful emoticon, and continued to browse the hot topics on Weibo.
The protagonist of this hotly discussed topic is none other than Chu Yu, who just signed the contract. Speaking of Chu Yu, Lin Shi really had to lament the irreversibility of the plot.
Chu Yu spent money through Li Song to get the role of the male protagonist in the filmed music video and replaced Jiang Siwen. How could Jiang Siwen be convinced?
In the past, under Chu Chen's former agent, in order to get resources from his own agent, he divided up a lot of resources that originally belonged to Chu Chen. Now he finally forced Chu Chen away, but he didn't want the male protagonist role that he liked.
He would be robbed by a little artist who looked like Chu Chen and had never heard of him. Why not make him angry?
He directly posted on Weibo and pretended to be pitiful to win the sympathy of his fans. What he said was that Chu Yu used the capital of his sponsor to steal his role. He even wanted to use the power of Chu Chen's fans with the mentality of flattering the superior and suppressing the inferior.
Targeting Chu Yu.
However, as early as the first time Jiang Siwen posted on Weibo, Lin Shi spoke in the fan group as a big fan, exposing Jiang Siwen's thoughts and asking fans not to be used as a weapon.
Therefore, without the intervention of Chu Chen's fans, Jiang Siwen's team took the opportunity to hype up the incident, and their fans unilaterally crushed Chu Yu's few fans based on their numbers.
As Chu Yu’s manager, Liu Jun was able to make the unknown youth group quickly become famous. It was not without means. He directly used the same means to make Chu Yu, who was accustomed to pretending, also post a video on Weibo,
And in cooperation with the director of the music video, he posted a clarification on Weibo.
Chu Yu fully performed the look of a little transparent boy who was spotted by the director after an audition and was so excited that he cried tears of joy when he changed from the male supporting actor to the male lead. Some believe it and some don't believe it, but none of them can stop Chu Yu from taking advantage of it.
The opportunity earned me a lot of fans.
The only flaw in this public opinion is that in the future, no matter what role Chu Yu plays, he will be labeled as a "capital operation" in the eyes of some people.
Seeing the soaring number of Chu Yu’s fans on Weibo and the comments from fans on Weibo, Lin Shi once again lamented that in this circle, ‘appearance is king’.
[Master, the completion progress of the side mission has been advanced by 10%. It is now 40%. Please keep up your efforts.]
What made Lin Shi most incredible was that at the moment when the system 004 suddenly reminded him that the side mission was progressing, Lin Shi received a call from Liu Jun:
"What did you say? Someone from the "Tomorrow's Star" program team contacted Chu Yu and signed a contract privately?"
"Well, when I got the news, Chu Yu had already signed the contract." The news was told to him by the assistant he chose for Chu Yu.
The program team of "Tomorrow's Star" actually bypassed the agent and contacted Chu Yu directly. If it was just because of Chu Yu's popularity these days, Lin Shi felt that it was impossible.
The program "Tomorrow's Star" is well-known and exposed enough, and it is the dream stage for most trainees, and the trainee spots are also determined and competed by many entertainment companies. Therefore, Chu Yu's participation in the program as a trainee is only a matter of popularity.
not enough.
Just like in the plot of the original world, the program team is interested in the similarity between Chu Yu and Chu Chen. It is understandable that they want to take the opportunity to increase the topic, but they will never contact Chu Yu. The one they should contact is Liu Jun.
Unless there are other external factors involved! Thinking of the 'funder' behind it, Li Song, Lin Shi felt that he needed to call the other party to confirm whether there was any handiwork by the other party.
Since there is a shady story on "Star of Tomorrow" on the Internet, in the original plot, Chu Yu's victory at that time was also due to the operation of the financial backer "Lin Shi". It is inevitable that entering "Star of Tomorrow" did not rely on the financial backer Li Song.
"Hey, is this Li Song?"
"Lin Shi, it's rare for you to call me. Why, why don't we get together?"
"No, I'm just calling to ask you, have you spent money on the program "Tomorrow's Star"?"
"How do you know?"
"How could I not know that Chu Yu is now an artist of my company and signed a contract with the program team of "Tomorrow Star" privately. He really doesn't take my company seriously at all."
"Lin Shi, what you said is serious. This has nothing to do with Xiaoyu. It's me who heard about this show and thought of making him happy on a whim, so I spent some money as an investment."
"Heard about this show? Li Song, why didn't I know when you became interested in the entertainment industry?"
"My cousin is the producer of "Rising Star". When she mentioned it, I voted for it."
"So that's it. Does that mean that the champion has been reserved for him?"
"That's right, but I heard from my cousin that there will be an online voting in the end, so that's not necessarily the case."
"Online voting, since Boss Li has a lot of money, it doesn't matter, does it?"
"I heard from my cousin that Chu Chen will also participate. Anyway, he is an artist in your company now. How about you, the boss, say hello to Chu Chen and show my Xiaoyu the back door. My Xiaoyu admires Chu Chen very much.
When is the time to ask Chu Chen to choose Xiaoyu as his partner?"
"You really don't know anything about it, so I'm sure nothing has changed. Can your Xiaoyu advance into the top three?"
