Seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune, I became a legend in the entertainment industry by avo

At the entrance of the Capital Theatre, Shen Ya and a dozen other girls looked inside, hoping to see that familiar figure appear.

However, to their disappointment, a young girl wearing a plaid coat came out.

Meng Tingyun walked to Shen Ya and the others, a youthful smile on her face:

"I'm sorry, Brother Lin is a bit busy right now and can't come out for the time being. I'm his assistant, Meng Tingyun. Is there anything I can help pass on?"

Shen Ya looked her up and down; she looked like a young woman who had just started working.

So he took the initiative to step forward and introduce himself:

"Hello Sister Meng, I'm the temporary president of the fan group. May I ask what Brother Lin is busy with right now?"

Meng Tingyun casually said:

"He's preparing for the performance. Once the lead actor arrives, he'll be free."

A short girl next to her leaned over with a smile:

"Sister Meng, isn't Brother Qi Lin playing a supporting role with only one or two lines? Why does he still need to prepare?"

Meng Tingyun was taken aback, as if she suddenly realized she had said something wrong, and her expression became slightly flustered:

"Ah... let's not talk about that now. Is there anything you want me to tell you? I'll write it down so I can tell him when I get back."

Her slightly flustered appearance caused Shen Ya and the others beside her to exchange glances.

Shen Ya handed over two gift bags:

"This is a gift we prepared for Qi Lin. Please give it to him, Sister Meng."

Meng Tingyun quickly waved her hand:

"Brother Lin said he appreciates your kindness, but we really can't accept any more..."

Seeing this, the other girls also gathered around and gently persuaded them.

Meng Tingyun couldn't refuse outwardly, so she had no choice but to accept the two bags of gifts and turn to walk back.

Watching Meng Tingyun's departing figure, Shen Ya pondered her words.

After a moment, he said to those behind him:

"Liu Pan, Si Tong".

The shorter girl and the round-faced girl behind her both looked at her:

"Sister Ya."

"Don't watch the performance tonight. Take a few of your girlfriends and try to find out whose role he's preparing to play."

Liu Pan and Le Sitong nodded at the same time:

"clear."

Whether Meng Tingyun's words were Zhang Qilin's true intention was actually not important to Shen Ya.

Now that the news had reached her, she had to do something.

This is also the time to demonstrate their value.

Why do those popular idols rely so heavily on fan circles?

Isn't it precisely because they can entrust their fans to handle many things that they themselves cannot do in person?

……

Zhang Qilin was reading when Meng Tingyun came in carrying two bags and said apologetically:

"Brother Lin, we just can't argue with them..."

Zhang Qilin smiled:

"Then please share the food with everyone."

"Okay," Meng Tingyun nodded and went to get busy.

Zhang Qilin watched her back as she distributed fruit to everyone.

He looked at the message that appeared in front of him.

[Auspicious/Medium Fortune]

Meng Tingyun is working to get more exposure for you. You just need to focus on your main job, and the existing obstacles will be resolved. Your preparations will eventually be seen.

(Rewards: +1 Passerby Popularity Fragment, +1 Detail Reversal Talisman)

It was after seeing this message that he allowed Meng Tingyun to interact with fans.

Although he didn't know what the other party would do, since the divination showed that it was in his favor, he pretended not to know and focused on doing what he needed to do in front of him.

In another dressing room, Chen Xu looked at the fruit in his hand, his eyes burning with jealousy.

He opened Weibo, which showed the content of his performance posted yesterday, with only a handful of likes.

……

9:00 AM the next day

The window seat on the second floor of the Starbucks near Qianmen.

Shen Ya looked at the people in front of her:

"So, according to the information you pieced together, Zhang Qilin competed for the role of the groom in Act III, and it was only after a closed-door discussion that the role was given to the understudy?"

Le Sitong nodded and said:

"That staff member told me that many people think Qi Lin acted better, but the decision is in the hands of those experts."

Liu Pan looked at Shen Ya:

"Sister Ya, let's do it!"

Shen Ya shook her head:

"The Beijing People's Art Theatre is different from those entertainment companies. Our old methods won't work on them. We need to think long-term..."

The group then lowered their voices and began to discuss the matter in detail.

15:30

Shen Ya arrived at a detached courtyard house located in an alley near Chang'an Avenue.

The courtyard is quaint and quiet, with every brick and tile still retaining its old appearance.

She entered a south-facing room, which was spacious and bright, with large and small picture frames standing against the walls.

The air was filled with the scent of ink.

Dong Qiyu was standing in the center of the room, slightly bent over, focused on making the final touches on a painting.

Shen Ya quickly approached and said respectfully:

"Boss."

"How is it?" Dong Qiyu asked without stopping her writing.

"I've already been able to strike up a conversation with him, and I'm starting to attract his fans."

"It's still too slow."

"Boss, he's very cautious. This is already the fastest we can go. Going any faster would backfire."

Thinking of her two rejections, Dong Qiyu couldn't help but snort coldly:

"Is there anything else?"

Shen Ya gave a detailed account of Zhang Qilin's situation, their actions, and the stakes involved.

After listening, Dong Qiyu did not make a decision immediately. Holding a pen in her hand, she unconsciously circled around the room a few times.

Then he looked at Shen Ya:

"I'll have someone transfer the money to you in a bit. I need to see results."

"Okay, boss."

The audience at the evening performance was filled with girls.

When Zhang Qilin came on stage, a sea of ​​lights still illuminated the venue, but this time it occupied most of the space and did not fill the entire stadium.

When Chen Xu came on stage in the third act, the small area that hadn't been lit up was illuminated.

Chen Xu was overjoyed when he saw the light sign with his name on it.

It's finally my turn!

He put in extra effort in his following performances.

Perform each movement to the utmost.

He practically shouted as he recited the lines, completely immersed in a state of near-hysteria.

Like a roaring movie star.

After the performance, Chen Xu returned backstage and deliberately raised his voice, saying:

"There are so many enthusiastic audience members today."

The other actors simply smiled politely and didn't respond further.

Chen Xu seemed unconcerned about everyone's reactions, still immersed in his own joy.

At this moment, the stage manager called out:

"Zhang Qilin, Chen Xu, your fans are waiting outside."

Before Zhang Qilin could move, Chen Xu eagerly stepped forward and deliberately shouted loudly:

"Oh dear, this is such a hassle."

He said this as he walked around the backstage area before leaving.

The other actors couldn't help but shake their heads as they looked at Chen Xu.

Su Wen frowned when she saw her son's expression.

When Zhang Qilin reached the door, Chen Xu was already surrounded by dozens of girls.

"Brother Xu, your performance on stage is so manly, we really love it."

"Brother Xu, you're not only a great actor, but also so handsome! You're practically the perfect male god! No matter what you act in in the future, we'll always support you!"

"Brother Xu's physique and acting skills are far superior to many male leads in today's idol dramas!"

"Brother Xu is the toughest, most manly actor in our hearts! A hundred times better than those who rely on their looks!"

The girls chattered away, praising Chen Xu incessantly, while Chen Xu stood in the middle, looking quite pleased with himself, striking various cool poses.

He would also reach out to shake hands with fans from time to time, saying:

Thank you everyone for your support, I will continue to work hard.

Shen Ya went to greet her:

"Brother Qi Lin."

Unlike the noisy interaction on Chen Xu's side, Zhang Qilin's fans, who numbered twice as many, were quiet and orderly.

Only after Zhang Qilin approached did she quietly express her support and affection.

Zhang Qilin responded patiently, a gentle smile always on his face.

After taking the group photo, he exchanged a few more pleasantries with everyone, told them to be careful on their way back, and then turned and left.

Shen Ya directed everyone to disperse together.

After the crowd dispersed, Chen Xu was seen carrying large and small bags, leaving with a satisfied expression.

Among the fans, a short-haired girl who was leading the group arranged for everyone to leave, and then, seemingly casually, glanced back at Shen Ya.

Their eyes met briefly before they went their separate ways.
