The Entertainment Industry in Turmoil: Young Actresses All Want to Rise to the Top

Chapter 110 Celebration Banquet for "My Love from the Star"

Inside the banquet hall celebrating the success of "My Love from the Star," the lights were dazzling, and glasses clinked in celebration.

The explosive viewership and global influence transformed this banquet from a celebration into a coronation of power, truly bringing together "everyone at the table."

As the absolute core, Shen Mo and Li Yitong were naturally the focus of the entire event, surrounded by industry colleagues such as platform representatives and GG merchants.

Among the crowd, Li Xian, who plays the second male lead Cheng Xu, had a flush of excitement still on his face.

He practically traversed half the banquet hall before finding a gap and standing in front of Shen Mo.

"Brother Mo!"

His voice was a little hoarse with excitement, but his tone was resolute.

"I'm requesting a ten-year extension of my seven-year contract! As long as Mohen doesn't abandon me, I, Li Xian, will never leave!"

This proactively extended long-term contract is the most direct way he can think of to repay this kindness and the enormous benefits.

Most importantly, Mohen's extensive resources and precise marketing capabilities also gave him a glimpse of an unlimited future.

Not far away, Dilraba, who amazed everyone with her role as "Tan Yan" and instantly rose from an unknown newcomer to a popular actress, was surrounded by several brands.

She responded to the flood of compliments and invitations with a polite smile.

The joy was genuine. Seeing her rapidly increasing number of followers and the resources that were once out of reach, she felt an unprecedented sense of attention.

However, her gaze inadvertently swept over the perfect couple in the center of the crowd.

Shen Mo was listening to Li Yitong speak with his head slightly turned, his posture intimate and natural.

A subtle, indescribable bitterness quietly crept into Dilraba's immense joy.

This success seemed to illuminate her secret, unfulfilled desires even more clearly, and also made them seem more distant.

In contrast, Zhang Songwen appeared calmer on the surface, but his inner turmoil was far greater.

He stood alone in a quiet corner of the terrace, holding a glass of champagne and watching the dazzling lights inside the hall.

When a producer friend walked over and patted him hard on the shoulder.

"Songwen, your hard times are finally over!"

This man, who had been struggling in the entertainment industry for over a decade and was still unknown at the age of 36, instantly had tears welling up in his eyes.

He suppressed his emotions, simply gripping his friend's hand tightly in return, everything unspoken.

The starlight came a little late, but it eventually shone on him.

On the other side of the banquet hall, Lei Jun, Wang Xin, and Zhang Yiming, the three internet tycoons who were "recruited" by Shen Mo to play roles, were gathered together, chatting and laughing.

Lei Jun took a sip of champagne and smiled as he looked at Shen Mo and Li Yitong who were walking over.

"When Mr. Shen first invited us to do a cameo role, I thought it was just a hobby."

"I was thinking, is Mr. Shen joking? I can act? Or are you just using me as a gimmick to generate publicity?"

He paused, then reached out and raised his champagne glass, his tone filled with genuine admiration.

"Looking back now, I was short-sighted."

He just saw the latest streaming data from Netflix this morning, which is not only a testament to the success of the show, but also a reflection of Mohen's precise operation.

"The momentum of 'My Love from the Star,' the marketing strategy, the brilliant thinking! I'm impressed!"

"You've given me some marketing ideas, haha, thank you Mr. Shen."

Wang Xin spoke quickly and directly, with a hint of smugness in his reply.

"That's right! Now, the young people in the company look at me differently when they see me in 'My Love from the Star'."

"I'm a much more respected boss now than before!"

Zhang Yiming pushed up his glasses, his tone gentle yet incisive.

"More importantly, the series itself is very solid; otherwise, it wouldn't have made us headline news." After appearing briefly in the show, downloads surged by hundreds of thousands on the same day.

Upon hearing this, Shen Mo and Li Yitong exchanged a smile, responding with a hint of teasing.

"Three bosses, you've really gained a lot of face. The key point is..."

He paused deliberately and made a number gesture.

"It also saved us a fortune in advertising fees. You know, a single ad slot for 'My Love from the Star' costs this much."

The group exchanged glances and burst into laughter.

Yang Mi and Liu Shishi attended the celebration banquet together at Li Yitong's personal invitation. Unlike the subtle atmosphere in the drama, their interaction at the banquet was noticeably softer and more sincere.

Yang Mi, dressed in a dazzling gown, put her arm around Li Yitong, who came to greet her.

"Tongtong, you guys have really stirred up a huge commotion this time!"

Liu Shishi, standing to the side, wore an elegant long dress and smiled gently.

"Congratulations, you acted wonderfully."

Li Yitong immediately acted like a cat whose fur had been stroked, taking Yang Mi's arm with one hand and gently placing her other hand on Liu Shishi, swaying back and forth, her tone tinged with a hint of smugness and coquettishness.

"It's all thanks to my two older sisters for giving me face and supporting me back then! You two deserve a lot of credit for this."

"This is a big day for me, you all have to be here!"

The huge success of "My Love from the Star," Li Yitong's meteoric rise to fame, Mohen's financial backing, and Li Yitong's role as a mediator between the two during this period all contributed to easing tensions between them.

This gave her a somewhat unique position among the three.

Li Yitong waved to the waiter holding champagne who was standing nearby.

"I don't want to drink champagne."

Yang Mi winked at Li Yitong and teased, "Could you get me some fried chicken and beer, Mr. Jiang?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Shishi couldn't help but chuckle. Even she, who was relatively "offline," knew that this was a signature trope from "My Love from the Star."

Li Yitong smiled and took out her phone. "Great! I'll have someone go to the kitchen and see if there's anything we can do!"

After quickly sending the message, she excitedly pulled the two of them over.

"Come, two stunningly beautiful ladies!"

"Let's take as many photos as possible now! The last time we appeared together on the red carpet, the fans were already screaming with excitement. Today, we must give them a real treat!"

Yang Mi snatched her phone and held it up.

"Don't just include the two of us! Shouldn't the superstar Jiang be included? We're the Three Beauties of 'Star You,' how could we leave you out!"

When the title "Three Beauties of Stardom" was mentioned, Li Yitong and Liu Shishi were both slightly taken aback.

Immediately, a crescent-shaped smile of realization and emotion bloomed on Li Yitong's face, and Liu Shishi also nodded gently, looking at the camera at the same time.

"Shishi, lean your head slightly towards Tongtong, yes, just like that!"

"Honey, smile sweeter! You're the fiercest of the three of us right now!"

Finally, inspired by Yang Mi's funny "cat paw" pose, Liu Shishi couldn't help but laugh and revealed a slightly shy but bright smile, and also made a small heart shape on Li Yitong's cheek.

Li Yitong stood in the middle, holding hands with two close friends on either side, smiling broadly and revealing her signature crescent-shaped eyes.

This nine-grid photo, brimming with intimacy and laughter, was posted on Weibo and instantly went viral.
