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

Three days later.

Nothing particularly noteworthy happened in Cheng Che's life over the past three days.

He continued to update the series as always, and the third volume of the Dragon Lord series has been completed.

Genjiro did not die and learned a lot about the past from Tachibana Masamune. The principal found Uesugi Koshi, the previous Shadow Emperor of the Snake Clan, and learned a lot about the "White Emperor".

The most exciting story of "Dragon Raja" is about to begin.

Although he was quite free the first few days, Cheng Che will gradually become busy again in the coming week.

Firstly, after the update of the third volume of the book was completed last night, the editor-in-chief told him that the gifts and letters sent by the students in the impoverished areas he had previously helped had arrived.

The editor-in-chief said that Cheng Che, as the person involved, should at least go to the company to sign for the package and open the box or something.

Secondly, I heard from the production team last night that the second half of the first episode of "The Voice of Creation," which is the singing segment, will begin recording in about a week.

This also means that Cheng Che will have to go there for rehearsals in just a few days.

He doesn't have much formal stage experience, and it will be a live broadcast... He may have a strong mentality, but he still needs to prepare well during rehearsals.

……

November 19th, morning.

Following the editor-in-chief's advice, Cheng Che once again took a car to the headquarters building of the Chinese website.

Entering the building went smoothly this time—the receptionist knew him, and so did the security guards maintaining order.

The receptionist didn't even call Bai Ye; she just let Cheng Che go upstairs.

Cheng Che was equally unceremonious, striding confidently into the elevator without any hindrance!

Then, using his memory of having been to the company before, he made his way to the editor-in-chief's office.

"Knock knock knock—"

Cheng Che knocked on the door very politely.

"Enter."

Cheng Che pushed open the door and entered, immediately seeing Bai Ye sitting behind his desk.

"Hey boss, I'm here to sign for the package."

"No rush, sit down." Bai Ye raised her hand, gesturing for Cheng Che to sit down opposite her.

Cheng Che did as instructed.

"Boss, is there something you need?" he asked.

Bai Ye looked at him, lightly tapping the table with her index finger, and said calmly, "Your online public image seems to be a bit shaky lately?"

She doesn't pay much attention to the entertainment industry, but since it involves Zero, she still needs to know a little about it.

"It seems...that's how it is?" Cheng Che asked uncertainly.

A few days ago, the interview video was released and became very popular, which helped him regain some public favor.

But there's only one video, while the enemy is expanding outwards every day.

Moreover, according to Xiaotang, a few days ago some of Cheng Che's true fans used that interview video to refute the online claims that Cheng Che was greedy for money.

As a result, the enemy used their eloquence to turn the tables on them—they said that Cheng Che did this only to gain fame, and besides, Cheng Che was just being generous with other people's money, since the drinks were bought by his readers.

Fans countered by citing Bai Ye's words from the video, saying that the editor-in-chief said Cheng Che had made a large donation some time ago, and some of that money was invested here.

The other party retorted, "Do you have any evidence? Who saw it? You're just making things up!"

When Cheng Che was being attacked on a show before, he urged everyone not to speak recklessly without evidence. Isn't the same principle still relevant now?

The fans were at a loss—aside from Bai Ye's casual remark, they really had no evidence.

All I can say is that life is full of boomerangs!

So despite the interview video, Cheng Che's overall public opinion situation not only did not improve after a few days, but actually declined.

"Do you need any help?" Bai Ye asked. "If so, I can have the operations department release some evidence of your previous charity donation later."

Bai Ye has not yet announced the collaboration between the website and Zero on charity. Her original plan was to announce it after the funds were secured and the results were seen.

"Since you're here at the company, film yourself unpacking the students' letters and gifts and post it online. That will dispel many of the rumors," Bai Ye said.

Cheng Che was a little touched, thinking to himself that his boss still cared about him.

Brilliant boss!

But he declined the other party's offer.

"Let's postpone the announcement for now," Cheng Che said obediently. "I don't think the time is quite right yet."

"Boss, I won't lie to you, I'm actually making a very big move!"

"If I take this step well, I can become a big shot... oops, I mean, I can completely establish myself in the entertainment industry, and most people won't be trying to take advantage of me anymore." He said, raising his eyebrows quite smugly.

I have a deep understanding of the situation and a broad vision!

Anyway, winning is the best outcome, and even if I lose, I can still live off Xiaotian... I'm winning either way!

"..."

Bai Ye stared at Cheng Che's face for a long time, then nodded to himself.

"Okay, as long as you know what you're doing, just let me know if you need anything."

Let the child play if he wants to; don't worry about him going too far.

With her as the head of the family around, the enemy can't stir up any trouble.

"I will intervene if necessary," she said calmly.

"666, boss, you're such a show-off..." Cheng Che was greatly shocked.

No wonder he's the editor-in-chief of online novels; he must read a lot of them. He puts on airs so naturally, and his skill level is in no way inferior to mine!

Boss, you're putting on a really high pedestal. If your image doesn't reach this level in the future, your image in my mind will plummet, you know?

Of course, Cheng Che would only say these things to himself; no matter what, Bai Ye was always concerned about him.

and so……

"Oh my! Boss is so generous! I'm willing to serve you hand and foot!" Cheng Che bowed deeply.

Bai Ye calmly waved his hand: "Let's go, I'll take you to the lounge, everything's there."

"receive!"
