Chinese entertainment: Top stars started being pursued by young actresses

Chapter 115, Section 114: A forceful kiss is the most effective way to deal with a senior sister (6K)

Lin Shaobai kept calling Yingzi, while Zhou Ye kept looking down at his phone. Only after being patted on the shoulder and becoming quite annoyed did he turn around to look at his phone camera.

He still had that same expression of utter despair.

Lin Shaobai continued playing the lively and cheerful Fang Yifan: "Hey, right, that's more like it. You were actually quite cute, right? But you're not my type."

Zhou Ye sneered twice after hearing this.

In the story of "A Little Reunion," the two characters developed a "comrade-in-arms" relationship; other romantic feelings were merely the interpretations of netizens.

So Zhou Ye's eyes were filled with speechlessness and impatience.

Then he turned back to look at his phone.

Lin Shaobai: "Hey Yingzi, Yingzi, Yingzi is about to enter her senior year of high school. What are your thoughts? Tell me."

As he spoke, he put his arm around Zhou Ye's shoulder.

Zhou Ye: "I think you're going to die."

Lin Shaobai was stunned for a moment, then said to the phone camera, "Look, even the top students are out of their minds, how are we slackers supposed to survive?!"

Zhou Ye pushed Lin Shaobai away, finding him rather noisy.

"Good card."

The director stood up and looked at Zhou Ye in the distance: "Zhou Ye, you said that line, 'I think you should be more ruthless when you're about to die.' The relationship between these two is like that of a bickering, lovable couple, so you have to be ruthless. Right now, that line is a bit too soft. Let's do it again."

"Oh, oh, oh." Zhou Ye nodded quickly.

She harbored feelings for Lin Shaobai.

So if the director hadn't reminded him, that line probably wouldn't have been that harsh.

The scene was quickly reshot, and the result was good.

It was lunchtime soon, and Lin Shaobai returned to his private lounge.

He's a top star, so of course he has his own private dressing room.

Other actors who played classmates didn't receive such good treatment.

However, Lin Shaobai asked Zhou Ye to bring him a boxed lunch to his lounge.

"Boss, won't this cause misunderstandings in public?"

Assistant Xiao Liu also stood beside him with a boxed lunch.

Lin Shaobai: "No. She was a friend I brought along. She's my friend, so why is she having dinner with me? What's the problem?"

It's okay. As long as you deny everything, it's not true.

Assistant Xiao Liu thought that made sense.

Why can't friends go into the lounge and eat together?

Zhou Ye, who was eating alone in the large lounge, saw the news about Lin Shaobai's white hair and quietly left the crowd.

They arrived at Lin Shaobai's lounge when no one was paying attention.

Zhou Ye's cheeks are bulging from eating so much, making him look as cute as a little squirrel.

"you call me?"

Zhou Ye swallowed his food and smiled slightly.

Lin Shaobai: "I want to see you."

Assistant Xiao Liu looked left and right, thinking that she would be a huge third wheel if she stayed there, so she kept backing away until she left the lounge completely.

Zhou Ye: "It's much cooler here than in that big lounge."

"That's right. Let's eat here, it's quieter here too."

Lin Shaobai turned the empty lunchbox upside down and put it aside.

Zhou Ye: "Speaking of which, what do you think of my acting?"

"Not bad."

"Tell the truth."

"Telling the truth is really good."

Lin Shaobai looked completely sincere.

Zhou Ye put two more mouthfuls of rice in his mouth: "I hope so. I'm quite nervous, afraid of affecting everyone's progress."

"Believe me, Qiao Yingzi will definitely be one of the representative roles in your life."

"Really?"

Zhou Ye immediately became interested, as everyone knew that Lin Shaobai had a good eye for choosing books.

"So, Kobayashi, you really think highly of this drama, right?"

"Ah."

"Me too. I really liked the script after reading it. I had a feeling that this show was going to be a hit."

After Zhou Ye finished speaking, she felt a little embarrassed. She sat on the sofa and said, "Oh no, do you think I'm being a little narcissistic? Being too confident isn't good either, since no one can predict how the show will turn out."

"Senior sister, eat in peace."

Lin Shaobai walked over and ruffled Zhou Ye's hair.

The television production resumed at 2 p.m.

Lin Shaobai is going to film a scene where he fights with Guo Zifan.

Guo Zifan's character, Ji Yangyang, is extremely arrogant. He drives a luxury car into the school and is stopped by security guards. Fang Yifan happens to be filming him with his phone.

Not wearing a school uniform, arguing with the security guard, and driving a luxury car into the school were indeed inappropriate, which made Ji Yangyang panic.

When he picked up his schoolbag to hit Fang Yifan, he happened to hit Huang Zhitao instead.

Huang Zhitao is Fang Yifan's goddess, and he fights with Ji Yangyang for her.

That's roughly the plot.

Guo Zifan had already acted out the scene of arguing with the security guard, and soon it was Lin Shaobai's turn to appear.

"action!"

Lin Shaobai approached Guo Zifan with his phone in hand. Guo Zifan, seeing the security guard walk away, turned around and almost bumped into the phone.

"What are you doing? What are you filming?!" Guo Zifan immediately became alert, his tone very unpleasant.

"No, no." Lin Shaobai quickly greeted him with a smile: "You're not wearing your school uniform and you even drove your car in here. That's against school rules and regulations."

Guo Zifan: "What are you filming?!"

As he spoke, he tried to snatch Lin Shaobai's phone.

"What are you doing? What are you doing?" Lin Shaobai stopped him, then pointed his phone at the luxury car next to them: "Wow, this car is pretty good."

Guo Zifan couldn't stand this kind of filming.

He wanted to resolve the matter quickly, so he gave Lin Shaobai a push!

"Hey, why are you pushing people? Let me tell you, in this crucial senior year of high school, every second counts, our school has everything, especially this," Lin Shaobai pointed to the car, "it's the biggest pencil case, it has everything from pens to pencils."

The implication is that Ji Yangyang's family is very wealthy, which is why he can drive into the campus so blatantly.

"Fang Yifan, who are you cursing?!"

Guo Zifan threw the black backpack directly at Lin Shaobai. Lin Shaobai turned around and dodged, and the backpack landed on the actress playing Huang Zhitao.

"Ouch!"

The actress fell to the ground, and her classmates quickly checked on her.

Zhou Ye quickly knelt down to support her: "Are you alright?"

Huang Zhitao is the goddess of the male protagonist Fang Yifan in the story, so he is naturally very nervous about this female classmate.

Lin Shaobai ran over and took a look, then angrily pointed at Guo Zifan: "You dare to hit my goddess?!"

He rushed forward and pinned Guo Zifan to the car, holding him tightly.

She even grabbed his neck with her hands.

Guo Zifan was initially pinned down, but he eventually managed to get off Lin Shaobai with all his might.

This time, we'll trap him in the car!

The fight between these two was improvised.

Lin Shaobai initially used one hand to choke him, while Guo Zifan used both hands.

When Lin Shaobai felt that he was having some difficulty breathing, he tripped Guo Zifan with his leg.

"Card."

The director felt the fight scene between the two looked a bit fake and quickly yelled "Cut!"

"That looks a bit fake. No, let's try again."

The first thing Guo Zifan did after hearing "Ka" was to ask Lin Shaobai how it was going.

"Shaobai, are you alright?"

"I'm fine, how about you?"

"I'm fine. Let's continue."

……

In fact, there were many competitors for the role of Qiao Yingzi.

Of course, this also includes Lee Yu-chi.

If Lin Shaobai hadn't appeared, according to the original timeline, this role would have undoubtedly belonged to Li Yuzhi.

However, this time, the production team prefers to cast Lin Shaobai as Fang Yifan.

Lin Shaobai is good-looking, tall, the right age, and has good acting skills. More importantly, he has a large following.

Fans are willing to do data manipulation for him.

The director wanted Lin Shaobai to play Fang Yifan, and Lin Shaobai was willing to play the role, but he had to choose the actress to play the female lead, Qiao Yingzi.

Zhou Ye really benefited from Lin Shaobai's influence.

After finishing work in the evening, I returned to a nearby hotel.

Zhou Ye huddled alone in bed, recalling his previous interview experience.

Without Lin Shaobai, she would never have gotten such a role.

She really didn't have any backing; the only thing she had was Lin Shaobai.

This is a fact!
Zhou Ye sighed as he thought of this.

"It's really difficult to move an inch without any problems."

She slowly sat up on the bed and placed a pillow under her lower back.

"Lin Shaobai has helped me so much, I should help him in return, but what can I do to help?"

Zhou Ye couldn't understand it, so she picked up her phone and called Lin Shaobai.

"Hey?"

"Shaobai, what are you doing?"

"I'm reading the script, what's wrong? Is there something you need?"

Is there anything you need my help with?

That's just Zhou Ye's personality; he starts from zero frames and will definitely ask whatever he wants to ask.

But Lin Shaobai was a bit confused.

"Huh? Have you lost your mind?"

"Are you out of your mind?! I'm asking you a serious question."

"Is it because of the role of Qiao Yingzi? You've already mentioned this before, why are you bringing it up again?"

"I just realized something: if I didn't have you, I might not be able to get anywhere in the future."

"..."

After Zhou Ye finished speaking, Lin Shaobai fell into a silence that lasted for about five seconds.

"Hey? Why aren't you saying anything?"

"Sorry, I got a call. Let's talk later."

Zhou Ye was thus abruptly cut off from the phone.

Did the conversation last more than 30 seconds before the call was hung up on like that?
On the other end, Lin Shaobai received a call from his agent, Sister Li.

"Come to the company this weekend. We need to discuss Xiao Han's matter with you."

"Is there an interview scheduled for Xiao Han?"

"The anime 'Ashes of Love' became a huge hit with Han Han, and you also gained a lot of popularity, so they invited you to be an award presenter at MAMA."

MAMA, also known as the Mnet Asian Music Awards, is the largest music awards ceremony in Asia.

It is the most representative and authoritative music awards ceremony in South Korea.

It's actually somewhat similar to New Year's Eve concerts in China, where people are invited to sing and dance, but they also present music awards.

For Han Han's side, the ones who went up to sing and dance were mainly K-pop boy and girl groups.

Lin Shaobai is going to attend the MAMA in Hong Kong.

At the same time, the Chinese female celebrity who was also invited was Ms. Yang Tianbao.

Despite being criticized in China for her poor acting skills, Yang Tianbao enjoys immense popularity in South Korea thanks to the variety show "Running Man," making her a goddess figure in the hearts of many.

Lin Shaobai still needs to go back to the company to discuss the specifics.

The princess called him right after he finished the call. Lin Shaobai thought about how his phone was constantly ringing.

"Shaobai, do you know what? I've passed another round of selection, and now there are only 100 people left in the school. I feel like I'm not far from success."

"congratulations."

At times like these, you need to provide emotional support, because women value emotional support the most.

"That's why I called you right away; I wanted to tell you this good news."

"Ok, I know."

"you know?"

"After all, our Zhang is so talented, he's bound to stand out from so many people. I told them a long time ago that you're amazing, which is why I recommended you to them."

"Moreover, I feel that I can really learn a lot of things that are different from what I learned in school at the company."

"Ah."

"One more thing."

"What?"

"I bought one set of pajamas, no, two sets, matching couple pajamas. You can have one, and I can have one, okay?"

"Couple's Pajamas"

"Correct."

"But we don't all sleep naked—"

"stop!"

The breathing on the other end of the phone was noticeably faster.

Zhang Jingyi knew what Lin Shaobai was about to say, so she quickly interrupted him.

"Anyway, I bought matching pajamas. When you get to Beijing, let's change into them and see if they fit, okay?"

"Okay. Either way is fine."

Zhang Jingyi was overjoyed to hear Lin Shaobai's reply.

"Okay. Um, actually I also..."

"Dong dong dong."

The door to Lin Shaobai's hotel room rang again.

But we didn't order anything, so there's no need for the waiter to come up and bring us food.

"Who?"

Lin Shaobai sat on the bed and called out.

But there was no response from outside, which immediately put him on alert.

In case some ill-intentioned person appears...

I went over and peeked through the peephole, only to find it was Zhou Ye.

"Hello? Shao Bai?" The princess was still speaking on the other end of the phone.

Upon hearing this, Lin Shaobai immediately hung up the phone and opened the door to pull Zhou Ye inside.

"You're here so late?"

"What? Can't I call you this late?"

Zhou Ye stood with his hands on his hips, wearing a simple white T-shirt and shorts.

She walked in, looked around, and then pointed at Lin Shaobai's face: "What are you doing? Being so secretive."

"I'm on the phone with someone from the company," Lin Shaobai said with a smile.

Zhou Ye didn't speak. She crossed her arms and walked over step by step, standing on tiptoe to look at Lin Shaobai: "Why do you seem so nervous? You're not doing something bad behind my back, are you?"

"How could that be? You're overthinking it."

"It's really strange, how could you talk to someone from the company on the phone... um?"

Seeing that Zhou Ye showed no sign of stopping, Lin Shaobai went up and kissed her, then picked her up and carried her straight to the bathroom.

A fierce battle ensued...

Meanwhile, the princess on the other end was somewhat annoyed.

We were having a good chat, then suddenly they stopped talking, and a little while later the call was abruptly ended.

very strange.

Zhang Jingyi's head was now filled with black question marks; she just felt that Lin Shaobai was acting strangely.

Is there something hidden?

Zhang Jingyi wanted to call Lin Shaobai again, but after hesitating for a long time, she finally decided not to.

When faced with such situations, the princess tends to be indecisive, as if only drinking can make her express her thoughts.

The night grew deeper.

Lin Shaobai was sleeping with Zhou Ye in his arms. Her hair was messy and there was some cold sweat on her forehead.

Zhou Ye, who was nestled against Lin Shaobai's chest, suddenly sat up as if remembering something and looked at him, saying, "By the way, were you chatting with the company at that time?"

"Yes."

Lin Shaobai said with his eyes closed.

Zhou Ye frowned: "Really?"

"Ah."

Zhou Ye then pinched Lin Shaobai's nose, forcing Lin Shaobai to breathe through his mouth.

"Hoo... Ugh?!"

Who knew that Zhou Ye, that mischievous little devil, would have his mouth covered by Lin Shaobai again!

She's a girl who absolutely loves playing pranks.

Because the air couldn't reach Lin Shaobai, he opened his eyes instantly, and Zhou Ye immediately let go of his hand.

She lay down beside me, smiling, and said, "It's so much fun."

"What's so fun about it? I almost died."

"That's called a late-night prank."

"What the hell."

Lin Shaobai adjusted his breathing and then gently pinched Zhou Ye's face: "Go to sleep well tonight, we have to continue filming tomorrow."

"Oh~"

Zhou Ye snuggled closer to Lin Shaobai, his eyes crinkling into crescents when he smiled, like a beautiful bridge.

Lin Shaobai thought he could finally get some sleep after hearing the quiet around him, but unexpectedly, Zhou Ye patted his abs again.

"Oh, it's so hard. I didn't expect you to have time to exercise even though you're so busy every day."

"The company makes sure I exercise every day. My agent keeps urging me to. Besides, exercising doesn't do me any harm. We celebrities all rely on our looks to make a living."

Especially in the fashion industry, if you're ugly, who would want to be with you?

For example, an endorsement for a down jacket.

Both male and female celebrities endorse down jackets, but only stand-up comedian Xu Zhisheng endorses a snowman.

So, if you're good-looking, fashion resources will look to you.

"That's absolutely true. But there's still something I don't understand. Did you ever imagine you'd enter the entertainment industry?"

"In the past..."

Lin Shaobai recalled the days in his previous life when he had no background and trained at the company.

It's actually a process that every boy group member has to go through to debut.

I spent every day in the practice room from 2 pm to 4 am, day after day, year after year, without knowing if I would ever debut.

Even if you have exceptional talent and good looks, you may still be brought down by capital in the end.

Even having an overwhelming number of votes is useless.

"I thought about it."

"Did you ever imagine you'd become this famous?"

"I've thought about it."

"Oh?"

Zhou Ye rested his chin on his hand and asked curiously, "Really?"

"Yes, with such talent, I'm bound to become famous."

"You're such a narcissist."

"Yes." Lin Shaobai pulled Zhou Ye into his arms and patted her back. "We're in the same boat."

"Who said we're the same? You're a narcissist and a nuisance, while I'm a normal person. But with this face of mine, it's impossible not to be narcissistic, oh no, I should call it confidence."

Zhou Ye said.

"Okay, whatever you say is right. Senior sister is absolutely right, she's the best at everything."

"I give up."

Zhou Ye gently rubbed Lin Shaobai's face and slowly drifted off to sleep.

……

at the same time
Hua Chenyu stared into thought as she looked at Lin Shaobai's songs on the music charts.

Whenever Lin Shaobai releases a song, his songs will be pushed down.

He was clearly the most popular male singer of the younger generation before this!

Do those female fans really change their minds so quickly?
Seeing his boss looking so troubled, the assistant leaned over and asked, "Why are you looking at music charts so late at night, boss?"

Actually, Hua Chenyu was so depressed that she couldn't sleep.

Previously, I looked down on Lin Shaobai, after all, his status in the music industry was unshakeable by ordinary people.

Who would have thought that Lin Shaobai would suddenly appear out of nowhere?!

Even though he hasn't released any songs in a long time and has turned to the film and television industry, his songs are still on the hot song charts.

And the number of fans has only increased.

"Didn't he start out as a singer? How come he went on to act?"

"Isn't this a good thing? No one is competing with us for a piece of the music industry pie anymore."

"Bullshit! I think he wants to make money not only as an actor but also as a singer, he wants to make money from both!"

Hua Chenyu felt bloated looking at the songs on the charts, turned off her phone, and threw it on the sofa.

He felt that his appearance was among the best of the younger generation of singers.

But for an actor, it would be utterly humiliating.

He can't follow in Lin Shaobai's footsteps and become an actor to gain another wave of popularity...

"How come his songs are still so popular even though he's filming a movie?"

His assistant standing next to him was actually thinking, "This is what a top star looks like!"
Top influencers are those who have a certain level of influence in both the music and film industries.

With a huge fan base, everything they do attracts attention.

Teacher VV was just as frustrated as Hua Chenyu.

The former top celebrities in the entertainment industry include Lu Han, Fan Zi, Feng Zi, the three members of TFBOYS, and Teacher VV.

Lin Shaobai's meteoric rise to fame has surprised everyone, while Teacher VV has long since faded from public view.

However, Teacher VV is also an extremely proud person.

So seeing Lin Shaobai rise to fame so quickly and displace a top star is extremely displeasing!!
"Why? Why can Lin Shaobai become a top star with just one drama?"

Teacher VV said to the assistant next to her.

The assistant dared not speak; the boss was angry. It was best to remain silent at this time.

Teacher VV: "Everyone online says I'm not as good as him. How am I inferior to him? He only has one drama, Ashes of Love, right? It's just one fantasy drama, right? How can that be compared to me?"

The assistant remained silent.

"Say something! You're suddenly silent now? You're usually so talkative!"

"Boss... According to Baidu search index, Lin Shaobai is indeed ranked number one, and by a wide margin."

"You're talking nonsense?!"

After finishing speaking, Teacher VV turned around and touched his chiseled profile in the mirror.

The assistant said, "If I really tell you, you'll get upset again!"

Teacher VV: "Lin Shaobai is nowhere near as handsome as me. I'm the most handsome man in the entertainment industry. They must have all had plastic surgery."

Assistant: "But as far as I know, Lin Shaobai has a natural face and has not had any plastic surgery."

After saying this, Teacher VV frowned and looked at him: "Whose assistant are you anyway? Why don't you go and be Lin Shaobai's assistant? Why are you taking his side the whole time?"

Assistant: "..."

I used to get scolded for not speaking, and now I get scolded for speaking. Why is this person so difficult to please?

If it weren't for the confidentiality agreement, I would have exposed his terrible temper long ago.
