Who is still a star after rebirth?

Chapter 273 Hidden Rule Me

Ever since Lin Luo forced Chen Miaoyi to accept the script of "Princess", she has been complaining non-stop, asking why she was forced to star in such a shoddy, low-cost web drama?
I just finished playing the third female role in "The Master of Emotion". Although my presence was not very noticeable, it was a box office hit after all!

With such good qualifications as a starting point, shouldn’t my resources be better for the second film I take on?

As a result, the boss insisted on choosing "Princess" for himself, and even said that he was very optimistic about the script and that this drama had a high probability of becoming a hit...

For a while, Chen Miaoyi really believed it and stayed quiet for a while. After all, online dramas can also be very popular.

For example, "Why Secretary Kim" is a low-cost web drama, but it became very popular after it was broadcast, and the male and female protagonists became famous overnight!
Maybe it will be the same with "Princess"?

After all, the boss is so optimistic about "Princess"!
It was not until Chen Miaoyi joined the crew of "Princess" that she realized that she had been fooled by Lin Luo. How could this drama have the potential to be a hit?

Crazy setting, bizarre plot, outrageous makeup, poor crew...

As a student of acting, Chen Miaoyi has watched so many domestic dramas, but she has never seen any domestic drama that can become a hit after gathering so many inferior elements.

An angry Chen Miaoyi went to Lin Luo to argue again, but the other party ignored her.

In desperation, Chen Miaoyi could only accept her fate and filmed the drama "Princess". Her professional attitude was still good. Although she felt that this web drama had no hope, at least she acted seriously.

The script isn't bad, but it isn't. If you read it carefully, it's quite interesting.

Although she saw some advantages in it, Chen Miaoyi still didn't think that this drama would be a hit, so she made a bet with her boss:
This drama is a hit, so I can agree to one condition from my boss, even if it's a little excessive.

If this drama fails, the boss will be responsible for helping me get a role that is no less important than the third female lead in "The Emotional Master".

In Chen Miaoyi's opinion, this drama is bound to fail, so she is bound to win the bet. She won't make an uncertain bet with anyone. What if she loses and her boss asks her to sleep with him?
Although she is a newcomer in the industry, Chen Miaoyi knows too well what the entertainment industry is like. Basically, all pretty female artists have been subjected to unspoken rules, unless they have big capital backing them up.

Fortunately, she is sure to win this bet, so Chen Miaoyi is so confident.

The night before the show was to be aired, Chen Miaoyi even confidently called her boss and mentioned the bet again. She even said that if the show became a hit, she would give him some unspoken rules.

Then "Princess" became popular. It became popular unexpectedly, inexplicably, and extremely popular!
Chen Miaoyi felt dizzy about the sudden popularity of this drama. Before she could react, invitations from all sides came one after another:
Popular variety shows, favorite magazines, high-end brand collaborations, and even olive branches for big-budget TV series and movies...

It seemed to have started from the third day of the broadcast of "Princess". Suddenly, overnight, at least four or five high-quality invitations came to me every day.

The most obvious feeling was that He Mingxuan had previously wanted to help her get the third female role in a movie.

The investment in that movie was only about 50 million, but after Chen Miaoyi's audition, the producer remained silent.

That lecherous producer even hinted that if he was willing to pay something, he could also give him the role...

Chen Miaoyi decisively refused.

Unexpectedly, a few nights ago, the producer of the play suddenly called me and said enthusiastically that we could sign the contract right away!

However, at this time, Chen Miaoyi no longer looked down on such resources.

When He Mingxuan was excited and asked for her opinion with various invitations, Chen Miaoyi's first reaction was not to accept the invitation first, but to ask the boss what to do first...

Chen Miaoyi did what she said and made a video call to Lin Luo on the spot to ask for his opinion.

With the popularity of "Princess", boss Lin Luo is now like a god in Chen Miaoyi's heart!

As for what she had said, that if "Princess" became popular, she would impose unspoken rules on the boss, although Chen Miaoyi felt a little ashamed, she felt that Lin Luo would not really make such a request as "unspoken rules", right?

When Lin Luo received a call from Chen Miaoyi, he smiled with satisfaction.

Chen Miaoyi finally became a real cash cow. Lin Luo had been waiting for this day for a long time.

As for the fact that Chen Miaoyi did not take the initiative to make decisions but asked for his opinion first when she received various important invitations, Lin Luo nodded with satisfaction, and then said in a caring tone:
"With so many invitations, of course I have to choose carefully. I don't want to make you too tired."

Then Lin Luo said in a serious tone: "The more famous you are, the more carefully you need to distinguish which invitations are just to quickly consume your popularity, and which invitations can really help you consolidate your position."

When Lin Luo saw the cover of "Men's Health" in the invitation, he rejected it without hesitation.

This kind of thing is something that female stars will only accept reluctantly when they are short of topics to talk about. Chen Miaoyi is very popular now, so she doesn't need to rely on exposing her body to attract attention.

"You can accept these brand endorsements. Brand endorsements themselves will also help you gain exposure in the market."

For example, there was an invitation from a domestic first-tier eyewear brand, a first-tier domestic shampoo, and an international second-tier clothing brand, and Lin Luo helped Chen Miaoyi accept them all. Of course, the company would take the lion's share of the endorsement fee.

After helping Chen Miaoyi choose three endorsements, Lin Luo said:
"These are the only endorsements for now. It's not good to take on too many at once. We need to take it slow and steady. I plan to continue training you, not taking advantage of your popularity to exploit you."

"Boss, you are so nice!"

Chen Miaoyi was deeply moved.

Thinking of how she had quarreled with Lin Luo before and complained about him asking her to take the role of Princess, Chen Miaoyi was touched and felt a little guilty: "I was so ignorant before that I even questioned the boss's decision. Otherwise, you should have taken advantage of me."

The last sentence is of course a joke.

Who knew that Lin Luo said with a look of disdain: "Why do you only know about hidden rules all day long? Don't mention these three words anymore. Don't worry, I won't ask you to accompany others for dinner and drinks, and I won't steal from the company. No one will use hidden rules against you."

"is it?"

Chen Miaoyi suddenly felt unhappy, and said with a smile: "Boss, if you are really a gentleman, how could you be exposed for having a tryst with Zhang Xinyin at night?"

"..."

Lin Luo glared at Chen Miaoyi unhappily. This cash cow was quite gossipy and was actually paying attention to his news.

Without dwelling on this topic, Lin Luo then helped Chen Miaoyi point out a few notices worth visiting: "These are all suitable for you."

"Well, the most important thing is what movie to shoot next. My boss hasn't helped me choose it yet."

Chen Miaoyi spoke up and said that she had received more than a dozen scripts during these days when she became popular. She was overwhelmed and didn't know which one to choose.

Lin Luo frowned. After He Mingxuan received the scripts that Chen Miaoyi received, he sent them to himself.

After reading through the scripts, I didn't find any scripts that left a particularly deep impression on me, which means that next year's hit dramas will not star in Chen Miaoyi.

If Chen Miaoyi doesn't obey, Lin Luo will make a lot of money. He will let her star in whichever drama pays the most. This way, he can make a lot of money and squeeze the potential of this cash cow.

But Chen Miaoyi was behaving very well now, so well-behaved that Lin Luo felt there was no need to drain the pond to catch fish.

After thinking for a while, Lin Luo asked: "Do you have any ideas?" "Me?"

Chen Miaoyi smiled and said, "I want to act in an idol drama, preferably one like "Why Secretary Kim?", which is not melodramatic but very sweet and charming."

You are really good at picking.

Lin Luo was about to speak when Chen Miaoyi continued, "It's a pity that Teacher Jiu Yue hasn't published a new book since she finished writing "Full House". If she had published a book, the boss could have tried to buy the copyright and let me play the female lead..."

Chen Miaoyi's face was full of longing, but then the longing turned into regret.

Lin Luo raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly: "Are you a fan of Jiu Yue's books?"

Chen Miaoyi smiled and said, "Boss, do you know Jiu Yue? I'm a big fan of his. I've read the original novel of Kim's Secretary three times and I've also read the original novel of Full House twice recently because the TV series is about to be aired. If Jiu Yue publishes a new book in the future, I really want to act in it if I have the chance."

"No."

Lin Luo shook his head and said, "The image of the heroine in September's third book is not very suitable for you."

Chen Miaoyi was startled, then looked at Lin Luo in surprise: "Boss, you don't happen to know Jiu Yue, do you?"

"know."

Lin Luo said with a smile, this is the advantage of not deliberately promoting one's identity as a writer to the outside world, so that one can show off to others from time to time.

"Really!"

Chen Miaoyi said excitedly: "Then boss, can you please help me get an autograph from Master Jiu!"

Lin Luo smiled. It seemed that Chen Miaoyi was a die-hard fan of Jiu Yue. If she wasn’t a die-hard fan, she wouldn’t know the title “Jiu Ye”.

"Is it possible?"

Chen Miaoyi started to act like a spoiled brat: "Then why is the heroine in Mr. Jiu Yue's new book not suitable for me?"

"Signing is fine."

Lin Luo smiled and said, "The heroine is really not suitable for you, because the new book is about ancient costume house fighting, and the heroine should be the gentle type. Your appearance is too flamboyant."

What Lin Luo meant by the theme of house fighting, of course, refers to "The Story of Minglan".

This novel has been completed, but it has not been published yet because Lin Luo and the website are in a stalemate.

However, Lin Luo is not in a hurry to release it. He is considering filming a TV series first and then publishing a novel. In terms of making money, the former takes priority over the latter.

"Ancient costume house fight?"

Seeing that Lin Luo was so sure about what he said, Chen Miaoyi was even more surprised and asked, "It seems that the boss is very familiar with Master Jiu?"

Lin Luo knew what the new book in September was about even before it was published. This would be impossible to know unless they were very familiar or even close.

“You can say that there is no difference between them.”

Lin Luo smiled and said, "If there's a chance, I'll ask Jiu Yue to write a script for an idol drama tailor-made for you."

Of course, this was a joke, just a casual promise to Chen Miaoyi, but Lin Luo didn't expect that before he could finish his words, his brain suddenly made a rustling sound.

Subsequently.

Swish, swish, a sound similar to the turning of pages of paper kept ringing in Lin Luo's mind, and then he unexpectedly came across a TV script.

The script is called "My Love from the Star"!
"The alien who fell into China four hundred years ago, living alone under the sky of Magic City with his secret that has lasted for four centuries. He still has the same young and handsome appearance as when he first arrived on the blue planet, and has special superpowers. He is Do Min Joon, a university lecturer..."

This script is exactly what Chen Miaoyi had mentioned before: a modern urban "idol drama".

The protagonist is Do Min-joon, who appears to be a young and handsome professor, but is actually an alien with super powers;
The heroine is Cheon Song Yi, a proud and reckless top star. The script tells the story of how the two people started out hating each other but ended up falling in love with each other...

Lin Luo looked at Chen Miaoyi in surprise. She probably didn’t like him, but she could actually trigger the apocalypse?

Could it be that because Chen Miaoyi is a true fan of September, and she herself is September, the apocalypse was triggered?
Or maybe this apocalypse was actually triggered by his joke. Anyway, no matter what, Lin Luo was very happy with this result. He was so happy that he didn't want to keep it a secret anymore and said directly to Chen Miaoyi:

"Forget it, let's not wait until later. I will tailor a script for an idol drama for you in a few days."

"what?"

Chen Miaoyi was stunned.

Lin Luo said: "I forgot to tell you, besides being your boss, I am also a writer. My pen name is September."

Chen Miaoyi couldn't help laughing and said, "Boss, stop kidding. I was almost scared by you."

Lin Luo also smiled.

Chen Miaoyi's smile paused slightly: "No...it can't be true...Boss, you really are..."

“Read Weibo.”

Lin Luo logged into the Weibo account of "Jiu Yue" and posted a message: [I'm watching "Princess" recently and wrote a script. I hope @陈妙依 can play the female lead. ]

Chen Miaoyi opened Weibo and suddenly screamed "Ah".

Then Chen Miaoyi looked at Lin Luo in shock, as if she had seen a ghost, and stammered, "Boss, are you really September? "

Lin Luo smiled and said, "You still don't believe me? How about I show you my Weibo account?"

As he spoke, Lin Luo showed Chen Miaoyi his Weibo backend. He had two mobile phones, and the backup one was for the author account of September.

Later, Lin Luo followed Chen Miaoyi using the account name Jiuyue in front of her.

The moment Chen Miaoyi received the message "Jiu Yue, whom you followed, also followed you", she was completely sure of Lin Luo's identity and shouted excitedly:

"Boss, take advantage of me!"

Chen Miaoyi never imagined that her boss was actually her favorite novelist!
You should know that Chen Miaoyi first met Lin Luo because she took the initiative to flirt with him because he looked so handsome in street dancing. Now she knows that he is her favorite writer, her heart is instantly fluttering, and her eyes are full of admiration for her idol!
