I'm a web novelist, and you want me to work in the entertainment industry?

"What did she say?" Tian Xiwei wasn't embarrassed at all and asked directly.

She's the officially recognized girlfriend, so it's perfectly normal for her to ask this kind of question!

"Let me take a look."

As Cheng Che spoke, he clicked into his chat window with Xu Man and glanced at it.

He was surprised to find that Xu Manfa's message was quite long, but it mainly talked about these two things—

The first thing she did was ask Cheng Che if he was free, as a fan she wanted to treat him to a meal and chat about music.

The second thing was that her agency asked her to extend an invitation to Cheng Che... in other words, they wanted to sign him.

"Hey girl, why are you so persistent..." Cheng Che sighed inwardly.

Although perseverance is a positive trait, your actions have truly caused me a lot of trouble.

Cheng Che briefly described the two incidents to Tian Xiwei.

"So what do you think?" Tian Xiwei asked casually, resting her chin on her hands.

"I used my eyes... no, of course I rejected her! I rejected both of them," Cheng Che said righteously.

"The first thing goes without saying is that I'm already taken. Although outsiders don't know, I understand the importance of keeping my distance from other men."

"The second thing is obvious, I'm busy writing and spending time with you, I don't have time to sign with a company."

Hearing Cheng Che's answer, Tian Xiwei smiled with satisfaction: "You are a promising young man."

"Speaking of Xu Man, I think she works for Tianchi Entertainment," she suddenly said.

"Tianchi Entertainment?" Cheng Che stroked his chin. "That name sounds familiar."

He thought for a moment and remembered: "Before, in Dali, an entertainment company contacted Xiaotang, saying they wanted to sign me. I think their name was Tianchi?"

"So, this is the second time they've contacted you?" Tian Xiwei scratched her cheek. "But speaking of which, do you know anything about this company?"

"I know absolutely nothing about it." Cheng Che shook his head. "Is this company very prestigious?"

There are too many companies, big and small, in the entertainment industry, and their names are too varied.

I can't remember, I simply can't remember.

His understanding of Tianchi Entertainment is about the same as his understanding of how to split an atom by hand.

"Pretty impressive, it's a big company." Tian Xiwei nodded, indicating that the other party should not be underestimated.

"You rejected him twice, be careful he doesn't mess with you later!" she said half-jokingly.

"Oh." Cheng Che nodded, indicating that he understood, and then had no further reaction.

"Oh?" Tian Xiwei felt that Cheng Che's mentality was something the whole world should learn from.

"I have nothing to fear if I am upright." Cheng Che was not afraid at all.

Are you kidding me? They think they're so great?

Isn't it impressive to have such a huge website behind me?

Do you know how much the editor-in-chief spoils me?

I'll avoid his sharp edge!

Moreover, Cheng Che was quite curious about what would happen if an entertainment company really wanted to mess with him.

You should know that, so far, the biggest scandal he has is probably killing off Xia Mi.

So the thought of being messed with, even just imagining it, is incredibly exciting!

……

Meanwhile, in a room of the same hotel.

Xu Man sat on the edge of the bed, looking down at Cheng Che's very polite yet distant refusal to reply, feeling slightly disappointed.

She wasn't exactly lying when she said on the show that she was Cheng Che's fan.

She studied music and knew the level of Cheng Che's songs. She really liked them, so it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her a fan of Cheng Che.

Moreover, I ask you, how many artists in the entire entertainment industry who haven't yet become famous don't admire Cheng Che?

Their ability to create memes, their speed in releasing songs, and the quality of their songs are all ridiculously exaggerated.

Moreover, having only been in the entertainment industry for a few months, he has been on the trending topics list countless times, and has even reached number one at times.

She remembered that in the past, some readers seemed to have commented online that Cheng Che was a bug in the online novel circle.

To this, Xu Man can only say—stop joking, do you think he's not a bug in the entertainment industry?

Throughout the entire day of filming, and even now that the show has finished, she has been trying to get to know Cheng Che better.

This was partly due to company requirements, but her personal wishes were also very strong!

If you get to know him well, he might write you a hit song, and you could then use that opportunity to create a romantic pairing with him... and you'll be trending on social media in no time!

That's exactly what Tian Xiwei next door did. She and Cheng Che have tons of CP fans now, and they even topped the trending searches once.

She didn't dislike Tian Xiwei; on the contrary, she was a little envious of her high popularity and her good relationship with Cheng Che—she didn't know if it was genuine or not, but that didn't matter; it was enough that the fans thought it was genuine.

She wanted to emulate him, but unfortunately Cheng Che didn't give her that chance at all.

Actually, I'm quite good-looking, and I have a good figure because I learn to dance... Xu Man looked at herself on her phone and sighed.

She also noticed that Cheng Che seemed to have no interest in her at all, and even avoided her like the plague.

Although we don't know the reason, there's nothing we can do about it.

Alas, the road to fame is long and arduous!

"Oh right, I also need to inform the company that the contract offer has been rejected again..."

……

……

the next day.

Cheng Che returned to his home in Shanghai.

He packed his luggage and then rested for half a day without any mental burden.

That's when I started my live stream in the afternoon, ready to start writing.

Cheng Che didn't know if it was just his imagination, but he felt that people were getting better very quickly today.

Although he's always been fast—Cheng Che's live streams have always been very popular, probably because he's really good at creating entertaining content; he's almost turned himself into a professional streamer.

After so many days of broadcasting, the number of viewers in the live stream never dropped below 100,000.

The comments section was also flooded with messages:

Ah, so it's King Qidian who's back.

Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!

[Zero, you just finished recording the show yesterday, and you're already home today? Can't you be this enthusiastic about writing too?]

[Brother Che's "Lying" is really good, isn't it? Don't you want to sing a version yourself? Also, "Holding the sun and moon in your hands, plucking stars from the sky" is so cheesy, but I like it!]

[Brother Che, you're trending again! "Lying" is trending, people are already covering the song, and even "holding the sun and moon and plucking stars" is trending!]

Is it trending again?

Cheng Che was slightly taken aback when he saw the related comments.

It's understandable that "Lying" trended on social media. Firstly, it was his first time on a music variety show, and secondly, "Lying" is indeed a good song.

But how come even the sentence he casually copied down to show off is trending on social media?

Cheng Che hadn't expected this at all, and it made him a little embarrassed.

Hmm... it's not a big problem.

Perhaps netizens also have a bit of a chuunibyou (delusional) heart.
