After The Vicious Cannon Fodder Was Reborn CH 208 To Flourish & Quarreling

The charity gala was quite successful, with a total of 127.41 million donations raised that night. In addition, netizens who have been watching the live broadcast on BulletScreen.com also enjoyed an audio-visual feast performed by superstars.

After the charity gala, the administrative department of FlyNews.com sorted out the list of donations made by all the guests overnight and sent it to the official account of the “Second Sino-Japanese War Veterans Charity Fund” established by FlyNews.com. And solemnly declared on the official FlyNews, every expenditure and income on the account would be listed in detail to ensure that netizens could check the flow of funds at any time. At the same time, the “Second Sino-Japanese War Veterans Charity Fund” had also opened a number of donation channels to accept donations from people from all walks of life.

The first expenditure of the “Second Sino-Japanese War Veterans Charity Fund” was officially announced. It would send all the Second Sino-Japanese war veterans to the capital to watch the military parade before the National Day, to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the founding of the motherland. Including reimbursement of travel expenses and accommodation expenses, as well as monthly subsidies according to the statistical list of war veterans.

Because it was a special fund and every income and expenditure would be disclosed to the public, netizens who were willing to donate did not have to worry about the risk of the funds being withheld or misappropriated.

As a result, after FlyNews.com announced the bank account under the official FlyNews of the charity gala and the “Second Sino-Japanese War Veterans Charity Fund”, donations from all walks of life trickled in. Within 24 hours, together with the charity gala donations, the total donations raised in the official account of the Second Sino-Japanese War Veterans Charity Fund directly exceeded 200 million.

Although this amount of money was still a drop in the bucket for all the war veterans in the country. But every netizen who participated in the fundraising believed that the money would be fully used for the veterans. It could also let those seniors who have fought hard for the motherland in those difficult years and were now aging to feel the sincere hearts of the younger generations.

On the third day after the end of the charity gala, it was another Saturday. With the broadcast of “Fashion Storm” at ten o’clock in the evening, even the audience who did not watch the live broadcast of the charity gala knew about it.

In the beginning, many viewers who were not so up to date on news were just curious about the big-name stars from the mainland, Taiwan and Hong Kong appearing in the TV series, as well as the entrepreneurs whose images often appeared on the covers of financial magazines. Most of these viewers were in their 40s and 50s. They didn’t usually surf the Internet very much, or they didn’t have the habit of surfing the Internet at all. They didn’t know the various wind and storm that FlyNews had stirred on the Internet, and they were not even familiar with the name FlyNews. They just felt that this idol drama was quite amazing to find so many extra actors who looked like famous stars and prominent entrepreneurs——until now, they didn’t realize that these big-name stars and entrepreneurs appearing in the drama were all actual appearances.

It wasn’t until their children who watched TV with them couldn’t help screaming and then informing them about Tao Mu’s whimsical decision, did these older viewers know that those people were real.

The charity gala in the drama was real, so was the Second Sino-Japanese War Veterans Charity Fund, and even the war drama the male protagonist complimented on when he went to greet the handsome young CEO would be coming soon.

“Aiya aiya, you said that this young man who doesn’t look much older than you is really a CEO? Isn’t he an actor?”

“He’s an actor, and he’s also a CEO.” Tao Mu’s die-hard fans saw a chance, and immediately introduced their idol to their parents.

Under normal circumstances, parents did not approve of their children chasing celebrities. After all, the student’s job was to study. If you have the time to chase celebrities, why not do two more sets of practice papers. It was better than wasting time on outsiders who they may never even have contact with in their whole lives.

Therefore, when children were chasing after idols, most of them hid it from their parents, afraid their parents didn’t think their idols were good role models. But Tao Mu’s situation was obviously different. At the age of 19, he was already worth tens of billions of dollars. No matter what kind of parent and what kind of standards they had, this was definitely a young and promising role model for their children.

So Tao Mu’s fans could finally introduce their idol to their parents. Some even turned on their computers and showed their parents the video of the charity gala.

Many parents who never surfed the Internet have finally determined that the charity gala that appeared in the TV series was the one that had been publicized in the newspapers in recent days. Some parents who never paid attention to entertainment gossip patiently understood the whole process, and the elders who had been sighing at comrade Xiao Tao’s flashy operation were instantly moved by the atmosphere of the charity gala.

So after the broadcast of this week’s “Fashion Storm” episode that night, the bank account of the Second Sino-Japanese War Veterans Charity Fund received many new donations one after another. The names of Tao Mu and FlyNews.com also inadvertently entered the hearts of middle-aged and elderly viewers who never surf the Internet.

Many middle-aged and elderly viewers who have never surfed the Internet even spontaneously began to collect information about Tao Mu. At first, they just browsed Tao Mu’s related content on major entertainment newspapers and weekly magazines. Later, they asked the young colleagues in the office about Tao Mu. These audiences in their 40s and 50s were also seniors in their respective industries and fields. Under normal circumstances, there was a generation gap with young colleagues who have just entered the workplace, and normally couldn’t talk and chat together at all.

It was rare for everyone to have a common topic. Those young colleagues, whether it was out of the mentality to please their higher-ups, or they felt that it was fun to introduce their idol to an elder, they all relayed everything they knew and did not hold anything back. Some people even took the initiative to take out their mobile phones to log in to FlyNews.com and BulletScreen.com to share gossip and videos with the old higher-ups and seniors.

Only then did these older middle-aged and elderly viewers realize that it was not that they had never heard of Tao Mu. Previously, the news of Sheng’an Group and Song Ji had stirred up quite a lot of uproar. Naturally, those who pay attention to news broadcasts and current affair hotspots have heard of it. It was just that they couldn’t match the name with the person for a while.

So these parental audiences also knew Tao Mu’s life experience, and even more that Tao Mu was an orphan, but he was a good and filial child. Full of love and righteousness, and knew gratitude and thanksgiving. So without Tao Mu himself knowing, he actually gained a batch of true and honest parental fans.

At the same time, this group of parental fans understood that it turned out that you could watch news, TV dramas and even stock analysis policy explanations on the Internet. And it was much faster and more comprehensive than the TV and newspapers. One just needed to download a few apps on the smartphone? And that FlyNews.com’s app also supported group chat and online video chat. It was even easier than just simply making a call on the phone!

Most of these higher-ups and elders were getting advanced in age and were less able to accept new things. Therefore, although many people knew that smartphones had appeared, they were too lazy to replace their old phones with new ones. They felt that smartphones were all just bells and whistles and not as durable as their old phones. Unlike the old phones they use which could last for more than half a month on a single charge.

It now appeared that smartphones also had their benefits. As a result, a considerable number of middle-aged and elderly consumers who were not lacking in money and have received brainwashing now included the purchase of smartphones as their daily expenses.

And because there was an advertisement for a domestic smartphone directly on the BulletScreen.com, many consumers who did not know much about smartphones also subconsciously accepted the brainwashing of the website advertisements and bought this brand of smartphones.

When the mobile phone manufacturers who were sitting at home and minding their own business, learned that sales have increased inexplicably, and the age group of consumers was also between forty and sixty years old. No matter how they looked at it, it was very strange indeed. So they asked major physical stores and shopping mall counters to conduct market research, and only then did they learn that the increase in sales was actually due to the advertisements on BulletScreen.com.

This ad was not paid in vain! The mobile phone manufacturer was immediately happy, and immediately called Meng Qi to express his gratitude, and then donated a sum of money to the Second Sino-Japanese War Veterans Charity Fund. Then took advantage of this opportunity and the heat to hype it on the Internet. Launching another wave of purchase benefits and discounts before the National Day holiday, which slightly stimulated consumers who were still waiting and hesitating to buy immediately.

After the news spread, industry colleagues were all amazed. Even FlyNews.com and BulletScreen.com themselves did not expect that things could end up like this. However, it was conceivable that the advertising sponsorship fee of BulletScreen.com would rise again in the next quarter. Well-informed industry insiders once again affirmed FlyNews’s publicity power. There were also many colleagues in the advertising industry who did case analysis on this matter. It was a pity that no matter how they analyzed the case they could only conclude that BulletScreen.com was uniquely endowed by nature, and just happened to catch the heat of the charity fund and the National Day holiday week.

There were even people who came to a conclusion on this matter based on the cliché that good people were rewarded with good things.

Just when FlyNews.com and Tao Mu’s career were flourishing, Yan Sheng and Shen Yu also ushered in their first relationship crisis after their relationship was established.

And the fuse of this crisis turned out to be Cao Miao, a complete and unrelated outsider.

——The matter had to start from the chance encounter between Cao Miao and Shen Yu that night.

Anyone who was familiar with Cao Miao knows that although Cao Miao had an honest face and looked trustworthy and honest, in fact, he had quite a cunning tongue, and was especially sly. To use Tao Mu’s evaluation of him to describe, that is, the most suitable job for Cao Miao was probably multi-level marketing.

On the other hand, Shen Yu was relatively simple and pure. And did not possess so many twists and turns in his thought process.

Cao Miao approached Shen Yu with a purpose, and of course he wanted to win Shen Yu’s favor at the beginning. Therefore, when Cao Miao was chatting with Shen Yu, he revealed his identity very frankly——he was from the same orphanage as Tao Mu. And out of reluctance he was also once forced to serve as Tao Mu’s toady and sycophant. Because Tao Mu had been a domineering person since childhood. He was the orphanage tyrant and often bullied other children. Cao Miao said that he actually disliked Tao Mu’s behavior, so he never contacted Tao Mu after leaving the orphanage.

Until some time ago, Cao Miao saw related news about Tao Mu in the newspaper and knew that Tao Mu had set up his own company and became a big boss. Whereas he didn’t do so well out in society, so he wanted to bite the bullet and come back and hug his thigh.

As a result, Tao Mu didn’t have eyes for him at all.

“Actually, I don’t blame him. People like us who just graduated from junior high school and immediately went out to work in society, without education or background, are discriminated against everywhere. He is now a big boss, and his employees must be industry elites, even interns must be graduates of major universities. I only have a junior high school diploma, and I am not qualified to even be his driver.” Cao Miao said self-deprecatingly: “It is too normal for him to look down on me.”

“How can he be like this?” Shen Yu couldn’t believe it: “Even if your education is not good, you both grew up together. How can he treat you like this?”

What a waste for those media reporters to flatter Tao Mu, saying that he was filial and loyal. It seemed that it was all just an act made for others to see. In reality, Tao Mu turned out to be a ruthless person who refused to support even the good brothers who grew up with him.

Shen Yu didn’t expect Tao Mu to be such a person, and was really angry. He felt very unjust for Cao Miao.

It must be said that Cao Miao was very observant. After all, he had been out in society for so many years, and was used to interacting with all sorts of people. Most importantly, what Cao Miao told Shen Yu was the truth. It was just that in some details, the concept was secretly changed. For a greenhouse flower like Shen Yu, there was no way to tell what was true or false.

So as the two chatted further, Shen Yu inexplicably agreed to hire Cao Miao to be his assistant. Anyway, when Shen Yu came to Beijing, Shen Yan resigned his agent and assistants. Now that Shen Yu wanted to film, he also needed an assistant to take care of him.

This matter was quickly known by Yan Sheng. The fact that there was an unidentified assistant who inexplicably appeared beside his lover. According to Yan Sheng’s habit, of course, it was necessary to investigate Cao Miao’s background.

As a result, this investigation revealed the past experiences of Cao Miao in which he stole materials on the construction site together with the foreman, and fled overnight after being discovered and reported by the developer. He also found out that Cao Miao was someone who had a habit of aiming too high, even though he clearly could barely get by, he arrogantly refused the work that Dean Tao had arranged for him. He even found out the truth about Cao Miao and Tao Mu’s friendship turning bad.

Yan Sheng felt that there was something wrong with Cao Miao’s character. Tao Mu was right to ignore this person. So he also wanted to persuade Shen Yu to not leave this calamity by his side.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

As a result, don’t know what wrong medicine Shen Yu took, but he started a quarrel with Yan Sheng because of Cao Miao. Saying that Yan Sheng just didn’t trust him and looked down on him, so he disapproved even when he just wanted to hire an assistant.

“Do you also think that I’m not as good as Tao Mu? Do you think that Tao Mu can live better and better with his own abilities, but I can only be stupid enough to be deceived and scolded by others? That’s why you didn’t even tell me and secretly investigated Cao Miao behind my back? Do you not trust me at all?”

After The Vicious Cannon Fodder Was Reborn CH 207 Domineering CEO’s Little Lovely Wife & Taking Initiative To Attack

Chairman Li, with his wife and children, greeted the other guests proudly at the charity gala in the manner of a half-natal family member. And in the projection of a semicircle arc, he walked precisely to the table where the higher-ups of FlyNews.com sat, and set up camp on the grounds that he was tired from walking and needed to sit down and rest for a while.

At this table reserved for FlyNews.com, in addition to Meng Qi, the CEO and his husband, Boss Liu, Mr. Song and Dean Tao, who were in charge of the Song Huai Charity Fund and the Red Star Charity Education Fund, were also present. In addition, Yun Yi, who founded Skynet Technology, and Chairman Long, who was brought over by Long Tianao, were also arranged at this table.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Second brother Li, who was temporarily suffering from camera phobia, was also very considerate, and switched the name cards of the other guests who were also arranged at this table to the table that Tao Mu had arranged for them so as to prevent the other guests having no place to sit if the Li family sat here for too long. Chairman Long had long seen through to the devious intentions of the Li family. Although he envied the Li family’s quick start, able to win over such a god of wealth with lightning speed, he wouldn’t purposely set up obstacles for them either.

Besides, the people sitting at the table previously arranged for the Li family were all the top businessmen in Beijing. The fact that Chairman Long had this opportunity to make new contacts, there was no harm at all. As for Yun Yi, he was even more amiable.

However, after learning that Yun Yi and Tao Mu were very close friends, and was also one of Li Xiaoheng’s business partners, the relationship between both sides became very harmonious. Second brother Li apologized and attentively took Yun Yi to meet and introduce him to several other business leaders. It could be regarded as helping Yun Yi make a group of new and useful contacts.

On the other side, Chairman Li, who finally met with Tao Mu’s family after all his efforts, also sat down, greeting Mr. Song and the others and pulling them into a chat with peace of mind and contentment.

“What a coincidence.” Chairman Li expressed surprise in a particularly perfunctory manner and then took the initiative to greet Mr. Song, Dean Tao, Liu Yao, and Meng Qi: “Every time I read news of CEO Tao on the Internet or in the newspaper, I always sigh. CEO Tao’s family must be really good at teaching children. So I always wanted to meet you face to face and have a chat. But I didn’t expect to meet by chance today. It can be seen that our two families have quite the affinity.”

This was really spouting nonsense with eyes wide open. Li Xiaoheng couldn’t bear to look directly and sighed silently to himself.

On Tao Mu’s side, old man Song, Liu Yao and Meng Qi also exchanged looks with each other. Dean Tao couldn’t help but humbly say: “No, No, Xiao Mu is a good boy. He can get to where he is today because he has talent, ability and is willing to endure hardships. Us elders actually did not teach him much at all.”

Old man Song also laughed and said, “Isn’t that the truth. This old man has lived quite many years, and spent it all without direction. In the end it was Xiao Mu who helped avenge my grievances.”

“Don’t say that.” Mrs. Li said with a smile, “You are too modest. We Chinese pay attention to teaching by words and deeds. Without a family like you who taught him since childhood, Xiao Mu would not be as likable as he is now. Therefore, my husband and I are very grateful to you for raising such a good child, so that Xiao Mu could become a partner with our Xiao Heng. You can rest assured that Xiao Heng will treat Xiao Mu well in the future and fulfill his duty as his partner. If Xiao Heng dares to bully Xiao Mu because he is older, we will all help Xiao Mu.”

These words were really…..Old man Song, Dean Tao, Liu Yao, and Meng Qi looked at each other. They were all talking normally, how did it suddenly turn into a meeting of in-laws?

Now they didn’t even know how to respond.

The key was that Li Xiaoheng even made a solemn promise in front of everyone, “I won’t bully Xiao Mu.”

Old man Song, Liu Yao and Meng Qi had no choice but to respond with an embarrassed but polite smile, their eyes drifting to Tao Mu, who was standing on the side without saying a word.

Tao Mu was so nervous, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, all the hair on the back of his neck stood up. All his attention was focused on every move of Chairman Li and Mrs. Li intently. After receiving the distress signal from his parents, he immediately said, “Chairman Li, you are too serious. My cooperation with Mr. Li is very pleasant. During this cooperation period, Mr. Li taught me a lot of things and took good care of me. He is a very nice person.”

With someone helping to continue the conversation, the two fathers and one grandfather breathed a sigh of relief and echoed with a smile, “Xiao Mu is right. We can be assured of Mr. Li’s character. To be able to cooperate with him, we…..”

Having said that, it was obviously still a bit awkward. Mr. Song swallowed hard, and managed to find appropriate and unambiguous words: “Anyway, we trust Mr. Li’s business ethics very much.”

“That’s good, that’s good.” Chairman Li and Mrs. Li also subconsciously echoed.

As soon as the voice fell, the table suddenly fell silent. The two families stared at each other for a while in silence. The awkward atmosphere gradually spread.

Little sister Li, who had always been clever, was the first to come back to her senses. She stood up with a grin and poured wine for the elders of both families whose mouths had gone dry from talking too much.

Chairman Li’s eyes lit up, and he pretended to be solemn and said, “Pour wine for your Grandpa Song and Grandma Tao first.”

“Grandpa Song, please have a drink to moisten your throat.” Little sister Li walked up to old man Song with a bottle of wine, and said with a sweet smile: “Grandpa Song, I watch programs on FlyNews every day. The food program you recorded before really made me very hungry. I feel that brother Mu is truly very lucky being able to grow up with you since he was a child. He must have eaten a lot of delicious food.”

After that, she poured wine for Dean Tao: “Grandma Tao, you are so kind. When I look at you, I think of my own grandma. My grandma is very kind to me. Grandma always takes my side when us siblings fight over the remote control because I’m the only girl in our family.” As they say, rare means precious.

The non-precious boys of the Li family looked at their little sister at the same time, and felt their hearts being stabbed with knives again.

Next, without the instructions of Chairman Li, little sister Li poured wine for the two uncles Liu Yao and Meng Qi: “I have heard about Night’s name for a long time, and I wanted to go with my classmates before. But there are staff watching, and underage people are not allowed to enter. Uncle Yao, Uncle Qi, if I report your names in the future, can they let me in?”

Liu Yao had always been a casual guy. Hearing this, he just laughed and said: “The bar does not allow minors to enter, that is to comply with the relevant regulations. But you are CEO Li’s younger sister, so for you it is definitely fine. Just say hello in advance.”

Meng Qi had been worried that the Li family would not accept his identity. Seeing the Li family’s performance at the moment, he was slightly relieved.

The charity gala was still in progress, and Tao Mu and Li Xiaoheng were the organizers, so they couldn’t stay away for too long.

Mrs. Li waved her hand very understandingly and said, “Go and do your thing. Us elders will have a good chat.”

Old man Song was also worried that Tao Mu staying here would delay his proper business and followed suit, “Go ahead. It’ll be alright.”

Tao Mu nodded and went to receive other guests who came to attend the charity gala together with Li Xiaoheng.

Mrs. Li looked at the backs of the two children leaving together, and said with real sincerity, “These two children are really a good match.”

Old man Song pondered slightly. It didn’t matter when they hadn’t met before. But since the parents of both sides have now met, in fact, Mr. Song had a lot to say to the Li family. It was just that there were many people at the charity gala, and many words were hard to say in this kind of venue.

“Don’t know if you two have time. You can come and visit Song Ji when you do.”

Chairman Li and Mrs. Li felt their interest being peaked, and immediately smiled and said, “Since it is Mr. Song’s invitation, then we shall respectfully accept.”

On the other side, Li Xiaoheng looked at Tao Mu, who was calm on the surface, but in reality he was still holding his breath, and persuaded warmly: “Don’t worry. My parents like your family very much. We are actually worried that you guys will not like our Li family, and will only try to find ways to fight for your approval. There will be no trouble at all.”

Tao Mu squinted at Li Xiaoheng: “Why didn’t you tell me in advance?” He could then be more prepared.

Li Xiaoheng smiled wryly: “I didn’t expect my parents to be so anxious. But I can understand it. At my age, I’m already close to hitting my thirties. No matter how tactful it is described, it can’t hide the fact that I’m an old bachelor.”

“My parents are worried about my marriage. When I used to be busy with work and did not date at all, they were worried. Now learning that I found such a young and capable partner. And most importantly he is also so handsome and has a really likable personality with fans that can circle the entire Beijing city. They are afraid we won’t be able to last, afraid that you will dump me when you meet other boys and girls with better personalities and looks. In addition, when my parents had me bring you home for dinner, you refused again and again. They are even more worried that I will not be able to bring you home and will die alone in the future. So they could only take matters into their own hands.”

Speaking of this, Li Xiaoheng scratched Tao Mu’s palm pitifully: “Do you think I’m useless too?”

“What are you doing!” Tao Mu subconsciously clenched his hand into a fist and looked around. Although the nearby lights were still dim, the camera was still running. Tao Mu was worried that others would see it: “We’re at work, so don’t make trouble, okay?”

“Then you must give me a word to ease my worries!” Li Xiaoheng said aggrievedly: “You wouldn’t really happen to dislike an old man like me who is boring and doesn’t understand romance, would you?”

“Enough already!” Tao Mu rolled his eyes helplessly. He didn’t say a word, so this person became even more addicted to acting, it seems: “You like acting so much, do you want me to arrange a role for you in “Fashion Storm”?”

Li Xiaoheng raised his eyebrows with a smile: “The domineering CEO’s little lovely wife?”

Domineering CEO Tao glanced at his little lovely wife, who was 1.87 meters tall, with wide shoulders, narrow waist, long legs, and eight-pack abs. And could only sigh helplessly: “Okay, okay. I will be responsible for you. So can you let me go now?”

“You’re so perfunctory.” Little lovely wife Li let go of his big pig’s hoof, and couldn’t help pinching the back of their CEO Tao’s neck: “Remember to be nice to me. I already belong to you.”

Having already arranged all the guests properly, Long Tianao, who came to inform Tao Mu that the charity gala could officially start, just happen to hear this, and the expression on his face instantly became indescribable.

He really didn’t expect that such a dignified and majestic domineering CEO Li Xiaoheng would be the one on the bottom.

Long Tianao’s misunderstanding was visible at a glance, but CEO Li was too lazy to explain himself. With a particular black belly, he looked at Tao Mu with an expression of “our family Tao Mu is the master”.

CEO Tao was too lazy to pay attention to their CEO Li, who was becoming more and more playful, and said to Long Tianao, “Tell the host, it’s time to start.”

At 8 o’clock in the evening, the charity gala jointly organized by FlyNews.com, Xiaoheng Capital, Longteng Entertainment and Summer Star Entertainment officially started. The content of the entire charity gala would be broadcast live by BulletScreen.com. Therefore, including the guest list and the final charity fundraising information, it was necessary to disclose it all to the public. And after the charity gala, the whereabouts of all donations would also be announced online.

Because the charity gala also invited A-list superstars from the mainland, Taiwan and Hong Kong to be performers, many netizens, especially fans, immediately followed BulletScreen.com and watched the live broadcast of the gala.

In Yan Film’s dormitory building, Shen Yu, who had always been following Tao Mu’s movements, also watched the live broadcast on the computer for a while. Seeing this, several other roommates in the same dormitory couldn’t help but sigh: “No wonder I admire Tao Mu the most. He is not much older than us, but he is already doing big things. If I am ever able to reach Tao Mu’s height, I will be very satisfied.”

Gu Yuzhang, who had been immersed in his studies, also agreed: “Tao Mu is indeed very amazing.”

Hearing these words, Shen Yu, who was watching the live broadcast with interest, suddenly lost his interest. He turned off the computer and went out for a walk.

Autumn nights were cool, and it was completely dark outside. Shen Yu had been to Beijing before, but every time he went out, he was accompanied by assistants and bodyguards, so he didn’t need to identify the direction himself. This time Shen Yu went to Beijing, Shen Yan cut off his agent and assistants. Only Shen Yu was left. So at night he didn’t dare to go out and just walked around the campus field. Sitting sadly under the stars.

Suddenly, a delighted voice came from the side: “Shen Yu? Is it really you? Oh my god, I actually met the real person. I knew that my hard work would not be in vain. I especially like your performance in “Purple Cloud”.”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Shen Yu turned his head and looked at the young man in the night, dressed simply and with a very simple and honest aura, and asked: “Are you…..also a student of Yan Film?”

“I’m not.” The young man shook his head and said bluntly, “My name is Cao Miao, and I’m your fan. I’ve been here for a long time, just to see you. Can you sign an autograph for me?”

After The Vicious Cannon Fodder Was Reborn CH 206 Charity Gala & First Meeting With The Li Family Elders

“Of course I am willing.” Shen Yu agreed without thinking when he heard Yan Sheng’s invitation. Then, hesitantly and embarrassed, he said: “However, my management team has issued a statement, saying that I will study hard during school and will not accept scripts or other gigs.”

He hadn’t even finished the first month of school, yet he suddenly took on a role in Yan Sheng’s drama. If outsiders know about this, would they complain that he went back on his words?

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

“It’s okay.” Yan Sheng smiled warmly: “We can move your shooting to weekends and winter vacation.”

Immediately afterwards, Yan Sheng patiently explained to Shen Yu: “This is a historical drama. It tells the story of Emperor Qianlong’s trip to the south under disguise. So many of our scenes have to be filmed on location. The role you will play is Fucha Fu Heng..…”

Shen Yu quietly listened to Yan Sheng’s character introduction.

Although it was a historical drama, from Yan Sheng’s attitude, it seemed that this drama was to be shot as a serious drama. After all, Yan Sheng had returned to TV series as a movie star, and he couldn’t make a soap opera no matter what. Otherwise, he himself couldn’t accept it, let alone the audience and fans.

Therefore, Yan Sheng required that the acting skills of all the crew members must be online. Other actors were easy to handle as Yan Sheng would ensure strict requirements when casting roles. Only Shen Yu posed some difficulty, Yan Sheng was reluctant to delete Shen Yu’s scenes, and also wanted to support him to make a comeback, so he could only have Shen Yu become familiar with the script a few months in advance, and exercise his acting skills and lines speaking skills. Especially for the lines, the script must be memorized first.

“I will work hard with you…..” Yan Sheng said patiently.

In order to avoid the leak of the script, Yan Sheng also planned to rent a place off-campus for Shen Yu, lest there was an accident as there were too many people in the dormitory.

Shen Yu had always had a soft personality and no opinion of his own. Whatever Yan Sheng said, he agreed. He didn’t even express his dissatisfaction of his main lead becoming a supporting role. He was just very happy to be able to film with his big brother Yan again.

“Big brother Yan, you can rest assured.” Shen Yu patted his chest and assured, “I will definitely work hard this time.”

In the dorm room, several other roommates listened to Shen Yu’s voice as he spoke on the phone and exchanged looks. After Shen Yu hung up the phone, someone couldn’t help but ask, “Shen Yu, are you going to film again?”

“Is it Senior brother Yan Sheng’s drama? Senior brother Yan Sheng is going to make a TV series?”

Shen Yu hesitated for a while before answering: “Yes. But this matter has not been announced to the public, so don’t spread it around. Remember to keep it secret. And the crew won’t start working so quickly, at least until the winter vacation. It’s still in the preparation stage.”

After a pause, Shen Yu couldn’t help but ask: “Do you know who Fucha Fu Heng is?”

Without waiting for the others to answer, Gu Yuzhang replied coldly: “Make good use of online search!”

Shen Yu was treated coldly and slumped back in front of the computer. Sure enough, he went to search for the historical figure, Fucha Fu Heng.

The others looked at each other, and couldn’t help but elbow Gu Yuzhang. Someone took advantage of Shen Yu going to the bathroom and whispered, “Don’t be like this. If you ease the relationship now, when the filming of film king Yan’s crew starts, we may be able to get a few good roles through him.”

“Everyone here is a roommate, don’t make the relationship so stiff.”

Gu Yuzhang said coldly: “If Yan Sheng is the kind of person who only looks at relationships, not abilities, and can easily give a good role to a freshman, then the way I see it, there’s no need to be a part of his crew. It definitely won’t be able to film anything good.”

“You——” Gu Yuzhang’s roommate was speechless. He could only angrily mess up Gu Yuzhang’s hair: “You are really a stinky and stubborn rock. Say, with that personality of yours, how will you be able to make it in the entertainment circle in the future!”

Gu Yuzhang didn’t say a word, and continued to read his textbook and study hard.

While Yan Sheng was closely preparing the crew, the charity gala co-hosted by FlyNews.com and several other organizers also started smoothly.

The official starting time of the charity gala was 8:00 pm on September 9th. From seven o’clock, guests have already begun to arrive one after another. The red carpet was crowded with fans and entertainment and financial media. They were surprised to find that the red carpet of this charity gala was actually comparable to the most influential awards ceremony in China. And in the second half of the red carpet walk, all the bigwigs appeared on the red carpet. Several financial media, who were surrounded by fans, were surprised to find that almost all the top 50 entrepreneurs on the rich list had arrived.

Even the chairman of Fengxing Group, elder Mr. Li, who had a strong sense of presence recently, also came with his wife and children.

Li Xiaoheng looked expressionlessly at the Li family members who looked like they were out for a family trip. Chairman Li glanced at his son in disgust, and looked at Tao Mu with a smile on his face. With an amiable and kindly expression, he said with a smile, “I’ve heard about CEO Tao for a long time. Seeing you today, CEO Tao is indeed really a young and promising talent.”

Tao Mu stretched out his hand, feeling inexplicably guilty, and shook Chairman Li’s hand. Thanking him with a smile.

Standing next to Mrs. Li, holding her mother’s hand, and wearing that Valentino evening gown, the Li family little sister excitedly waved at Tao Mu: “Mu Mu, Mu Mu, I’m your die-hard fan~”

Tao Mu expressed his thanks again. And then invited everyone from the Li family to enter the hall. Even leading the way in person.

Li Xiaoheng silently followed behind Tao Mu. From a distance, it really looked like a family traveling together. The picture was very harmonious indeed.

Tao Mu led Chairman Li and his family to their seats. Chairman Li casually glanced at the name cards on the table and said with a smile, “Actually, I feel that I can sit with Mr. Meng from FlyNews.com. Xiaoheng Capital is also one of the organizers of this charity gala. As family members of CEO Li, of course we have to sit at the organizer’s table.”

“And the truth is that my second son has a slight camera phobia. The seats Mr. Tao arranged for us are too close to the front, and the camera will sweep over from time to time. It will cause my second son’s nervousness. If it becomes serious, it might even cause him to go into sudden shock.”

Second brother Li, who never knew he had camera phobia, glanced at his biological father expressionlessly. Then nodded and agreed: “Yes, I have camera phobia. I can’t sit here. And I feel that Mr. Meng from FlyNews.com is very approachable and makes people feel like they are out in the spring breeze. I might be more relaxed sitting there.”

Li Xiaoheng looked at the Li family who were spurting nonsense with very serious expressions, and couldn’t help but recall the fear of being continuously stabbed in the heart by Chairman Li back then.

Tao Mu was worried that the Li family would say something unpleasant when in contact with his Yao Dad and Xiao Qi Dad. That was why the seats were lined up like this on purpose. Unexpectedly, Chairman Li did not express any objection to the seating arrangement at that time but now, when he arrived at the scene, he suddenly found fault with the seating.

Tao Mu was a little nervous in his heart, but didn’t show it on his face. He nodded with a polite smile: “No problem. I’ll communicate with CEO Meng to swap the seatings.”

Swap?

Chairman Li and Mrs. Li looked at each other and couldn’t help but suggest again: “There’s no need to exchange seats with Mr. Meng. It’s us who took the liberty to make the request, so don’t trouble Mr. Meng.” What if the in-laws got the impression that they were purposely stirring up trouble?

Although Tao Mu didn’t show it, everyone in the Li family could sense that Tao Mu was a little nervous. As early as when Li Xiaoheng half hid half revealed their relationship, the Li family had already hired a private detective to investigate Tao Mu’s background and experience. So they know a lot about Tao Mu’s past.

They didn’t feel that Tao Mu’s family were people to be looked down on. They just felt very sorry that Tao Mu had encountered so many ups and downs at such a young age. But the key was that despite so many difficulties, he could still start his own business from scratch and managed build up such a large business by himself. It could be seen that this child was indeed a genius, and was also one who valued family and righteousness.

The so-called business marriage alliance of two families of the same status meant that after two people were together, they could create more benefits by joining the strengths of both families. Moreover, the two people were familiar with each other and would have more common language. Even if there was no passionate love, at least they could be life partners who respected each other. For example, Chairman Li and Mrs. Li met on a blind date. And after so many years, the couple did not feel that their lives were any worse because of this.

However, the cooperation between Tao Mu and Li Xiaoheng had already confirmed this in all aspects. Therefore, the Li family valued Tao Mu more than family background which was just the icing on the cake. After all, Tao Mu was a business partner and life partner recognized by Li Xiaoheng. Therefore, even if just out of respect and trust for their son, the Li family would not do anything that was not in line with social etiquette.

However, it seemed that Li Xiaoheng did not explain clearly to Tao Mu. And Tao Mu, being blinded by his concern, didn’t take this into consideration.

But this was better, at least it let the Li family see clearly that Tao Mu was indeed a good child who attached great importance to family. As we all know, children from unhappy families were either very cold, indifferent or even hostile to the concept of family, or they would cherish the family very much after they have their own family. Judging from Tao Mu’s reaction, he was obviously the latter.

This was a good thing. At least it could prove that after Tao Mu and Li Xiaoheng get married, they would cherish their small family very much and would not be easily tempted by the outside world.

Chairman Li and Mrs. Li were very satisfied with Tao Mu’s reaction. Mrs. Li even held Tao Mu’s hand and patted the back of it comfortingly, and said kindly, “Don’t worry. We just want to chat with your family. Speaking of which, this is the first time our two families have met. You say, my dear child, I asked Xiao Heng to invite you over for dinner at home so many times, why do you always refuse? Are you worried that we are not easy to get along with?”

Mrs. Li glanced at her eldest son and stabbed a knife without hesitation: “Then you misunderstood. Compared with Xiao Heng, his father and I are actually very easy to get along with. Out of the many people in our family, Xiao Heng is actually the hardest to get along with.”

Second brother Li and the Li family twins heard these words and nodded like chickens pecking at the rice next to them.

Li Xiaoheng, who was the most unfriendly in the whole family, silently glanced at his father, mother, and siblings, and decided that it would be best to go home and take a paternity test!

Tao Mu didn’t expect Mrs. Li to act like this, and was stunned and caught off guard.

At this moment, Long Tianao and Luo Xi also brought their families over. Mrs. Li patted Tao Mu on the back and stood beside Tao Mu with the attitude of a family elder. Smiling, she said, “Xiao Mu, as the host, why don’t you introduce us?”

Chairman Luo glanced at the Li family parents in confusion, frowned and asked, “What’s there to introduce? You don’t know me, or I don’t know you? Why bother Xiao Tao to do this?”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Only Long Tianao knew the inside story. Seeing how the elders of the Li family were so eager and proud to tell the whole world, he couldn’t help but feel happy for Tao Mu. Chairman Long of Summer Star Entertainment glanced at Long Tianao with a melancholy gaze, and recalled that this kid had mentioned about introducing a boyfriend for his cousin. No wonder there was no news later, it turned out that they were too late and were cut off by the Li family.

After The Vicious Cannon Fodder Was Reborn CH 205 Preparation

Tao Mu’s cameo role in the drama was a domineering CEO of a film and television company. According to the plot setting, after the website created by the male protagonist was on track and made some small successes, he learned that his old company, one of the most influential fashion magazines in China, was going to hold a charity gala. The protagonist tried his best to get an invitation and took the heroine with him to the gala. And it was there he met a certain film and television CEO. Then, after gaining the appreciation of the CEO, the male protagonist, who was already struggling with funds, finally got his first financing since he started his business.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

In Tao Mu’s original setting, all the plot points of the script were fictional and any similarity was a coincidence. However, in order to make “Fashion Storm” more realistic and connected to the hotspots of current affairs and to make the audience feel more immersive, Director Xiong Bao forced the screenwriters to change most of the fictional Fashion Storm props into those of real brand businesses, constantly interspersing hard and soft advertisements in the plot. At the same time, it could also achieve the satisfaction of both sponsors and audiences.

So Director Xiong, who had tasted the sweetness of doing so, simply and directly replaced the identity of the film and television CEO with Tao Mu himself. So this plot point became FlyNews.com and Summer Star Entertainment jointly holding a charity gala. The male protagonist did his best to get an invitation, and successfully chatted with CEO Tao at the charity gala (the topic of conversation being that “The Great Wall of Flesh and Blood”, which was produced by CEO Tao, was a very good drama), and then achieved the appreciation of the bigwig Tao Mu, successfully getting the first financing for his website.

The adapted plot not only fit perfectly, but also closely followed the real hot spots in current affairs. And as Director Xiong himself promised, he indeed also promoted the charity gala and “The Great Wall of Flesh and Blood”.

And what “Fashion Storm” could get was a large number of A- and B-list superstars, influential figures in the fashion industry and advertising industry, as well as various business bigwigs making cameo appearances in an idol drama——

That’s right, when Tao Mu started to prepare the project plan for the charity gala, he had already made a plan for it to be broadcast live on BulletScreen.com. To this end, the technical department of BulletScreen.com also specially purchased a server expansion, and made other technical preparations.

On the other side, FlyNews.com, Summer Star Entertainment, Longteng Entertainment and Xiaoheng Capital split up and used their respective company’s personal connections to invite famous people from all walks of life to participate in the charity gala. Of course, when Tao Mu sent the invitation letter, he also mentioned that some of the video clips would be included in the TV series “Fashion Storm”——for example, the red carpet part and guest introductions. Specially asking permission in the letter if they could agree to this cameo appearance.

Tao Mu had a wide range of personal contacts and connections, and the A-list superstars he could invite included all the actors of the “Black and White” crew, plus the big names he met when he went to Zhou Yanqing’s concert before. Needless to say, the other three companies have even stronger backgrounds.

If this plan could be successfully implemented, it was conceivable that the guest actors of “Fashion Storm” this time would be the most valuable and influential “extras” in the country. In every sense.

So even if FlyNews.com had been secretly finalizing the procedures for invited guests and the overall charity gala preparations. There were still many entertainment media who had heard news from various channels. This indirectly led to the search index of “Fashion Storm”, charity gala, invited guests, etc. skyrocketing.

That man who could stir up a bloody storm in the entertainment industry was once again at the center of the whirlpool and became the focus of everyone’s attention.

In the end, the time for the charity gala was finalized at 8 o’clock in the evening on September 9th.

During this period, FlyNews.com had been busy preparing for the various processes of the charity gala, and to finalize the itinerary of all the guests and performers. Fortunately, the four organizers possessed very strong contacts and connections in all walks of life. Although the work was cumbersome and required communication with all parties, everything still went very smoothly.

In contrast, Yan Sheng’s idea of ​​preparing an idol drama to support Shen Yu as the male lead did not go so smoothly.

With the lesson learned from the movie “Jianghu” that started high but went downhill, investors in the industry have all heard of Shen Yu’s flashy operation of dragging down the entire movie just by the power of himself. Besides, Shen Yu’s reputation was very bad now. Although there were still many die-hard fans, his impression among passers-by was really bad and was also boycotted by some feminists. Compared with Shen Yu being entangled in scandals and black materials, this was actually more troublesome. Because these feminists would really come up with all kinds of ways to resist everything related to Shen Yu.

The reality of “Jianghu”‘s performance at the box office before was ironclad proof.

Therefore, although Yan Sheng had a good reputation in the industry and was also deeply loved and trusted by producers and investors, no one was willing to spend money to invest in this idol drama supervised by Yan Sheng. No director was even willing to take over this idol drama. In the end, Yan Sheng had no choice but to take out most of his savings and invest it into this idol drama himself.

However, this decision was firmly opposed by his childhood friend and business partner.

Zeng Yiheng thought that Yan Sheng’s brain was simply flooded with water. Just look at the extent in which Shen Yu’s reputation and popularity had fallen! The fact that it hadn’t dragged Yan Sheng down was already their greatest luck. Yet Yan Sheng was still imagining that Shen Yu could make a comeback?

“What on earth are you thinking? You aren’t really bewitched by Shen Yu, are you?”

In Yan Sheng’s studio, Zeng Yiheng, who never wanted to comment on Yan Sheng’s view of love and his other half, couldn’t resist it any longer. For the first time, he expressed his strong dissatisfaction with Shen Yu: “At the beginning, we agreed to stay away from Shen Yu and make good friends with Tao Mu and Li Xiaoheng. In the end, what did you do? Just because you slept with Shen Yu, you went ahead and offended Tao Mu again and again. I won’t say anything more about this. But now you actually want to flush your acting career down the toilet?”

“Do you know what your decision will mean? It will mean that you will have to put all the company’s liquidity on a male protagonist who has no audience at all. And the most important point is that this male protagonist is not only riddled with negative news and scandals, he does not even possess a speck of acting skills and professional ethics. By going ahead with this decision, aren’t you just wasting your money?”

Zeng Yiheng really couldn’t understand why Yan Sheng became like this: “Who was it that told me that he likes acting the most and that he will regard acting as his lifelong career. Now, you are going to give up your career for a street rat?”

“Yiheng!” Yan Sheng interrupted with a livid face, and his tone was not very good: “Don’t say that of Xiao Yu. He is my lover after all. And he is not as bad as you say. You are just biased, he’s actually a good person. At least he doesn’t have bad intentions.”

“There are too many people in this world who don’t have bad intentions. The ones who really have bad intentions are the few, alright?” Zeng Yiheng sneered, looking at Yan Sheng with great disappointment: “I didn’t expect that the young master of the Yan family, who always had high standards of himself, would have such low requirements for his other half.”

Yan Sheng was rendered speechless. He was reluctant to blame Shen Yu, but it didn’t mean that Yan Sheng didn’t know what Shen Yu did. He was also disappointed in Shen Yu. However, the two of them were together after all. As a man, Yan Sheng’s family education and cultivation did not allow him to commit irresponsible actions. After all, Shen Yu only had him now, didn’t he?

Zeng Yiheng looked at Yan Sheng sitting depressed on the sofa with a tired look on his face. He didn’t want to say anything anymore. He took a deep breath and said reluctantly: “As a man, I can understand how you want to help your other half when he is in trouble. But Yan Sheng, we can’t treat our money and career as a joke. Moreover, in Shen Yu’s current state, I don’t believe he can take on the heavy responsibility as the male lead. Whether in terms of acting skills or other conditions, he can’t take the lead, and he can’t bring in the TV ratings. So towards the decisions of the other investors and directors, you have to understand.”

Yan Sheng nodded absentmindedly and then saw Zeng Yiheng take out a script from his briefcase and handed it to Yan Sheng.

Yan Sheng asked in confusion, “What is this?”

“You have acted in movies since your debut, but you haven’t taken on many TV dramas in recent years. However, everyone knows that if you want to increase your popularity, TV dramas are the best platform. If you want to be a producer, the risk of making movies is too high. So it is also a good idea to begin with TV series instead. You think idol dramas are easy to make, but have you ever thought it through, since the launch of “Fashion Storm”, whether it is the industry or the audience, everyone’s eyes are on it. So if the idol drama produced by you fails to reach the same level, or the comparison is even more tragic, have you ever thought about what those media reporters and your fans would think?”

Yan Sheng fell silent. He looked at the script that Zeng Yiheng had given him and found that it was a historical drama. The story took place during the Emperor Qianlong period. The lines were exquisite, the rhetoric was gorgeous, and the background was also profound. With Yan Sheng’s rich experience in reading scripts, just flipping through the beginning and looking at the end, he could conclude that this was a very good script indeed.

Zeng Yiheng opened his mouth and said, “If you want to become a producer, then the first TV series we make must also be a critical success. If it’s this kind of script, it will also be worthy of your film king title. The entertainment industry is a very realistic circle, even if you are an A-list superstar, you still can’t make a mistake. Otherwise, there will be many up-and-coming stars that will surpass you.”

Zeng Yiheng couldn’t help but nag and continued: “I finally managed to pick this script after a long time. I also finally got the screenwriter to finalize the adaptation rights. Originally I wanted to use it to support a newcomer of the company. Now you got it cheap. When the news of you playing Emperor Qianlong spread, it will definitely be the biggest news in the field of TV dramas this year. Moreover, if you personally act and produce the drama, it will definitely attract reliable investors and directors. At that time, you can arrange a good role for Shen Yu. We’ll see if it could whitewash some of his black materials.”

Yan Sheng noticed that Zeng Yiheng circled a name with a red pen on the character sheet of the script, raised his eyebrows and asked, “Fucha Fu Heng?”

Zeng Yiheng hummed and explained patiently: “Fucha Fu Heng is the younger brother of Empress Yuan. He has made outstanding achievements in history and was deeply favored by Emperor Qianlong. He is a character with a very good image. The most important thing is that this character does not have much of a sense of presence. Not as many fans as Huo Qubing, Wei Qing or other historical figures. Many young people have never heard of this person. His sense of presence is not even as good as He Shen in the late Qianlong period. Give this role to Shen Yu, if he plays it well okay, let’s hype this character’s achievements in history and help the audience feel a sense of substitution. Naturally, Shen Yu can rely on this role to shine. If he doesn’t play it well, then it’s just a side character, and it’s not a big deal to delete this role at that time.”

In any case, Zeng Yiheng would not let Yan Sheng repeat the same mistakes.

Yan Sheng smiled. He knew that Zeng Yiheng pretended to speak in a casual and easy tone, but he could tell how much effort he put in behind the scenes. So he was very touched and could only pat his good brother on the shoulder, conveying his emotions with more than words.

Zeng Yiheng waved away Yan Sheng’s paw impatiently. If it wasn’t because he was worried about his childhood friend’s lower half directing his brain, he wouldn’t have even bothered to help pave the way for Shen Yu.

Seeing Zeng Yiheng angrily leaving the office, Yan Sheng smiled and took out his mobile phone to relay the good news to Shen Yu.

Shen Yu, who was lying on the bed while eating snacks and watching a k-drama, answered the phone and said coquettishly: “You’re finally not busy. Then play games with me for a while. The guys in my dormitory play Aion, no one is playing “Purple Cloud” anymore.”

Shen Yu has a very special feeling for the online game “Purple Cloud”. He only became popular overnight when he played the leading role of the drama “Purple Cloud”. And later, it was possible to have a common topic with Yan Sheng so smoothly because the two often played this game together.

It’s a pity that in the past year, fewer and fewer players were playing “Purple Cloud”. Most people climb over to DOTA and Aion or something else. It made Shen Yu feel particularly sad.

In the previous life, after Shen Yu and Yan Sheng made their relationship public, in order to commemorate the online game “Purple Cloud” which brought them together, Shen Yu also bought the copyright of this game.

It’s a pity that in this life, Shen Yu was “expelled out” by the Shen family, and there was no film and television company to make money for him, and because of his bad image, he couldn’t even receive endorsements and acting roles now. He himself was powerless to do anything and could only pin all his hopes on Yan Sheng.

“There are really fewer and fewer players playing “Purple Cloud” now. If one day, “Purple Cloud” stops serving because there are too few players, let’s buy this game, okay?”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Yan Sheng, who had always been obedient to whatever Shen Yu said, suddenly hesitated for some reason after hearing these words.

Thinking of what Zeng Yiheng said to him before, Yan Sheng didn’t answer Shen Yu’s question directly, but mentioned the script: “…..Xiao Yu, would you like to act with me, even if it’s not the male lead?”

After The Vicious Cannon Fodder Was Reborn CH 204 Let’s Film An Idol Drama Too

Shen Yu felt a little flattered at the classmates who suddenly surrounded him.

For well-known reasons, Shen Yu was not so popular after reporting to Yan Film Academy. Especially amongst the freshmen in the same class as him. Even if Shen Yu was dense, he could still feel that these people didn’t like him and even felt that he lowered Yan Film’s quality with his presence.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Even during military training, those classmates didn’t like to talk to him. For example, some female classmates like to get together and chat during military training breaks, but they would immediately stop talking once he passed by. Scattering away or moving to other places. It was as if he had some kind of infectious disease, even if it was just standing and breathing in the same air, they would be infected by him.

Male students were better. Although they don’t like him very much, they didn’t get up and avoid him as soon as they saw him. It was just that they only talked about the NBA, Champions League, Aion, World of Warcraft, etc. Shen Yu couldn’t understand at all. No one would take the initiative to chat about topics that Shen Yu was interested in.

Even when it was to go eat at the cafeteria, or to play ball in the campus fields, no one asked him to come with them.

Shen Yu could only stand far away from the crowd by himself. Seeing them all so lively and enjoying their university life, while only he, Shen Yu, was out of place. This feeling was actually very uncomfortable. It was as if he was separated from the rest of the world by a transparent dome. As if Shen Yu and his new classmates were not even breathing the same air.

Shen Yu, who used to always be the focus of the crowd, had never felt this way before. So neglected, so ignored, as if ostracized by the whole world.

So when Shen Yu saw his new classmates suddenly coming to talk to him, he was actually very happy. But after hearing the new classmate’s request, Shen Yu furrowed his brows helplessly.

“Tao Mu doesn’t have a good relationship with me. He hates me very much.” Shen Yu looked at everyone, hesitant to say anything, and finally said, “He won’t allow me to make a cameo appearance in “Fashion Storm”.

Of course we know you are very dislikeable.

The classmates who came to make the suggestion all quirked their lips in a sneer and said, “We aren’t asking you to make the request to Tao Mu. Isn’t your relationship with young master Luo very good? You probably don’t know that there are three investors in “Fashion Storm” in total. The investors are FlyNews.com, Longteng Entertainment and Summer Star Entertainment. Among them, Longteng Entertainment is the property of the Luo family. You can take young master Luo’s route on making a cameo appearance in the drama.”

Shen Yu shook his head like a rattle: “No, I can’t. I’m not going.”

Just like Tao Mu didn’t want to see him, Shen Yu, who was abandoned by the Shen family, didn’t want to see Tao Mu either. He didn’t want Tao Mu to see how pathetic he was now. It would make him feel extremely embarrassed.

And Shen Yu didn’t think that someone like Tao Mu would agree to Luo Yang’s request for him to make a cameo appearance in the drama just because Longteng Entertainment was a company of the Luo family.

When filming a movie in Hong Kong before, Shen Yu even brought money into the crew. In the end, when Tao Mu plugged people in the crew, didn’t he disagree with Shen Yu’s proposal? Even the director disagreed with Shen Yu’s recommendation.

So Shen Yu didn’t think he could succeed now.

“Forget it!” The several classmates interrupted Shen Yu’s explanation impatiently, and said angrily: “If you don’t want to help, just say it, why explain so much.”

“I…..” Shen Yu bit his lip aggrieved. It was not a matter of wanting to help at all. What he couldn’t do at all, why were these people making it difficult for him.

Shen Yu was nineteen years old this year, and was 1.78 meters tall, but his limbs were well-proportioned and his bones were slender, and he had a particularly strong youthful aura. Especially in the comparison of several tall and sturdy northern classmates, he appeared even thinner and smaller.

At first glance, it looked like a group of high school students joining hands to bully an elementary school student.

“Enough!” The freshman sitting nearby couldn’t watch any longer, frowned and said, “Are your brains full of water? Tao Mu is a student of Beijing Film. That he brought Beijing Film’s students into the crew to make a cameo appearance. It’s clearly due to the intention of Beijing Film Academy. Don’t you know what the relationship between Beijing Film and our Yan Film is?”

“Aren’t you embarrassed to ask Shen Yu to call young master Luo to make such a request? Let’s not say that Longteng Entertainment is being managed by the eldest young lady of the Luo family, so young master Luo’s words won’t work at all. Even if young master Luo really does have speaking power, if Longteng Entertainment wants to plug people into the crew, why would they choose a bunch of outsiders over Longteng’s artists?” Didn’t they know that the senior sisters who had connections began to use their agency’s ability to make a cameo appearance in the drama? Just these freshmen with no connections and background, that don’t know how to act, yet their thinking sure was naive!

The several classmates who were pestering Shen Yu for favors were a little bit unable to save face because of the freshman’s words, and instantly sneered: “You speak in a high-sounding manner. Don’t you want to make a cameo appearance in “Fashion Storm”?”

“Of course I want to.” The freshman sneered, “But though I think about it, I can still tell the difference between fantasy and reality.”

“You——” The classmates who were ridiculed glared fiercely at the freshman with hatred. After evaluating the physique and fighting strength of both sides, the classmates left embarrassedly.

Shen Yu looked at the tall and buff freshman with a look of admiration and trust, and said with a bright smile: “Classmate, thank you for helping me out. What’s your name?”

The freshman frowned, rubbed his arms and said, “Can you stop smiling like a sissy?”

One second pouting and one second smiling coquettishly. In truth, the freshman was not prejudiced against Shen Yu, but he felt that Shen Yu, a guy, always pretending to be soft and weak like a little girl truly brought shame to the rest of the male sex.

Oh, right! Shen Yu had instigated his sister to bully those real little girls before. And in the end, he pushed the blame on his sister’s head instead.

Thinking about this, the freshman’s perception of Shen Yu became even worse! He felt that Shen Yu was not even as manly as a good girl! At least a good girl knows to take responsibility herself!

“Also, my name is Gu Yuzhang. Although I’m a freshman this year, and I’m not as famous as you are. But we are actually assigned to the same dormitory. So can you stop acting so condescending with your nose always in the air?” Gu Yuzheng also felt a little upset. Although he disliked Shen Yu as a person, and he didn’t want to bother with the guy. But despite living in the same dorm for so long, Shen Yu still didn’t even know who he was.

Damn, if it wasn’t because they were roommates, as if he would speak for someone like Shen Yu. It’s not like his brain was flooded with water.

Shen Yu did not expect that Gu Yuzhang had just helped him out of the siege, but turned around and scolded him instead. Immediately, his eyes reddened with grievance.

Gu Yuzhang didn’t know what was wrong with Shen Yu, instead of tearing up at those who bullied him, he teared up at him instead. Those who didn’t know better would have thought he was bullying him!

Gu Yuzhang couldn’t handle offending him but he could just avoid him, so he walked away with a dark face. The students who were good friends with Gu Yuzhang watched from the beginning to the end and also left, politely declining to have further interactions with this inexplicable fellow.

Only Shen Yu was left standing on the spot, crying nearly half the day away yet no one approached him at all. So he didn’t know if he should keep crying or not.

As a result, that night, the photo of Shen Yu crying on the campus field was posted online. Because Gu Yuzhang and his buddies were relatively close by. When Shen Yu’s fans saw this, they mistakenly thought it was Gu Yuzhang bullying their little prince and indiscriminately searched for Gu Yuzhang’s FlyNews, and left comments scolding Gu Yuzhang. The next day, they even went to Yan Film to visit Shen Yu and even wanted to fight for justice for Shen Yu.

In the end, Shen Yu was also a bizarre character. Something that could be explained in two sentences, yet he couldn’t explain it clearly at all. He just kept crying and repeatedly saying that Gu Yuzhang didn’t bully him, it was his own fault, and you must not blame classmate Gu…..

As soon as he said this, it seemed to give the impression that Gu Yuzhang was really bullying people, but wouldn’t let anyone talk about it.

Of course Shen Yu’s fans could not swallow this down. The large group of fifteen to sixteen-year-old girls immediately surrounded Gu Yuzhang and scolded Gu Yuzhang. Gu Yuzhang, a man of 1.88 meters tall, was scolded terribly by a group of little girls and didn’t even dare to talk back.

In the end, the other students couldn’t stand it any longer, and in three to two sentences explained the matter clearly.

Only then did those little girls know that they had wronged Gu Yuzhang. But because of Gu Yuzhang’s bad attitude towards Shen Yu, the little girls didn’t apologize. Gu Yuzhang also did not have the mood to listen to their apology either. Just after Shen Yu’s fans left, he stopped Shen Yu and yelled fiercely: “Shen Yu, are you sick in the head? You remember this for me, if I meddle in your business in the future, I will change my surname to follow yours!”

Shen Yu also felt particularly wronged. He clearly didn’t do anything, and he tried to explain that Gu Yuzhang did not bully him. It was just that others didn’t believe him. Why was Gu Yuzhang so angry with him?

Gu Yuzhang was unable to communicate with Shen Yu at all, and left with a dark face.

After Shen Yu’s fans returned home, they logged into the fan group and explained the reasons why Shen Yu cried. The large group of brainless fans figured out the truth and immediately could not swallow it down. They all focked to the official FlyNews of “Fashion Storm” and director Xiong Bao’s personal FlyNews, and left messages to recommend Shen Yu.

The words inside and outside were “our little prince is so handsome, give him a role”, “our Yu Yu is like the little prince who stepped right out of the pages of a manga, I hope Director Xiong will pay attention to him”, “Can Director Xiong invite our Yu Yu to make a cameo appearance in the drama, our Yu is very popular, and it will definitely make “Fashion Storm” higher in ratings”, “Without Yu Yu, any idol drama will not be complete. After all, our Yu Yu’s slender, elegant and noble image is the standard for idol drama male protagonists”, “Isn’t the lead actor of “Fashion Storm” just too ugly? He is old and ugly, and can’t compare with the delicate facial features of our little prince. The filmmaker might as well consider our Yu instead”…..

Some people especially @ Tao Mu, accusing Tao Mu not to be too stingy, even if it’s for the quality of the idol drama, he should not exclude such excellent actors as Shen Yu from joining the crew!

These remarks really nauseated Tao Mu’s fans who were always squatting in FlyNews waiting for food.

“The image of the hero of an idol drama? Which idol drama’s hero is such a vicious, irresponsible cuckoo who occupies the nest? Is the filter of Shen Yu’s fans too thick? Your fake little prince’s image is already broken, alright?”

“Is Shen Yu good-looking? Why don’t I think so? Maybe the face reflects the heart, I feel that Shen Yu looks particularly vicious.”

“Don’t come and pester our Mu! Can you Shen Yu fans have some face? Since debut, you have been rubbing off on our CEO Tao for publicity and hype. Can’t we not make appointments, idiots?”

The male protagonist of “Fashion Storm” was called Bai Sensen, who was a contract trainee of Summer Star Entertainment. Later, he was recommended by the company to debut on the talent show “National God and Goddess”. Because of his handsome appearance and sunny temperament, and his humorous conversational skills, he was very popular with girls. At the end of the talent show, he only lost to Liu Yunshu by a thousand votes and became the third runner-up in the country.

Later, he participated in the leading role of the idol drama “Fashion Storm”, and became one of the most popular male idols among girls in the country overnight. This time, he was innocently minding his own business, but out of nowhere he got scolded by Shen Yu’s fans as old and ugly.

Of course, the fans of Bai Sensen couldn’t swallow this down. As everyone knows, the cohesion of the fans from talent shows was relatively strong, and because of the constant catfights during the talent show, the fighting power of the fans was also particularly impressive. And because Bai Sensen became popular overnight and was supported by the company, this group of fans had the ambition that their idols could soon be promoted to A-list.

In other words, Bai Sensen’s fans dared to even fight with ordinary B-list stars, not to mention C-list little stars like Shen Yu who barely made two film works and have a lot of black material.

The effect of these two fans duking it out was no different from Mars hitting the earth. During the period, there were fans of Tao Mu, fans of other actresses in the crew joining in (because of Liang Xiao’s revelation, the actresses in the crew were all aware of Shen Yu, a male star who only knew to bully girls). Shen Yu’s fans were outnumbered, and even Shen Yu’s support club was flooded with criticisms. In the end, they could only surrender with a white flag.

However, “Fashion Storm” exploded in popularity because of this round of fighting. The highest viewing rate exceeded 4.5%, and the most important thing was that all the crew members——mainly the actors who have participated in the fan war before, no matter new or old, all had their names made known to the netizens.

And a truth that the industry knows was that fame equals purchasing power. So even though “Fashion Storm” had barely aired a few episodes, even the young actors who played the male No. 5 and the female No. 6 in the drama have received invitations for endorsements and gigs. Not to mention the hero and heroine and Liang Xiao, the female No. 2, who were now so jaw-dropping popular.

Even the distributors of other countries began to actively contact the crew and wanted to negotiate overseas distribution of the drama.

Tao Mu made a lot of money in this wave, and for the first time felt that Shen Yu was not so annoying. He couldn’t help but sigh——sure enough, all grievances and resentment could bow in front of money!

On the other side, the news that Shen Yu got torn a new one by several other fan groups also reached the ears of those who cared about him. For example, Yan Sheng, who had been busy filming in other places, or Luo Yang, who had no ability but really wanted to help Shen Yu. It even reached the ears of young master Lin, who had just been transferred to the Beijing branch of the Lin Group.

Luo Yang and Yan Sheng felt distressed about what happened to Shen Yu, they couldn’t bear to see Shen Yu being ridiculed, but they also couldn’t insert Shen Yu into the “Fashion Storm” crew either.

——Yan Sheng had no good relations with Tao Mu, Luo Yang was afraid that Mr. Luo would really throw him into the army, and was currently pretending to be a good boy. He was so cowardly that he didn’t even dare to mention it in front of his sister. In the end, they could only find another way——

They decided to make an idol drama as well, with Shen Yu as the male lead. And Yan Sheng also had another idea, that was, to help Yan Film’s students. Firstly, it was because of the competitiveness between Yan Film and Beijing Film at work. Recently, Tao Mu had been in the limelight, and as a result even Beijing Film had a bigger presence in the circle, and seemed to faintly suppress Yan Film’s momentum. This was what Yan Sheng, the leader of Yan Film present students and graduates, didn’t want to see.

Secondly, if Yan Sheng could invest an idol drama to support Yan Film’s students, the relationship between them and Shen Yu should also be eased if only for his sake. At least they wouldn’t ostracize Shen Yu so blatantly. Yan Sheng knew that his actions of helping Shen Yu to enter Yan Film through the back door really made many classmates uncomfortable. Even in the school, there were teachers who were quite critical. But Yan Sheng couldn’t help it, he couldn’t just watch Shen Yu drop out of school, right?

Therefore, by shooting an idol drama to support his fellow schoolmates, it could be considered as a gesture of goodwill to Yan Film. He believed that Yan Film Academy could also see his sincerity.

Last but not least, Yan Sheng was also affected by Tao Mu. Tao Mu had just entered his sophomore year, and it had been less than a year since his debut. Not only was his acting skills as good as his, but he was also a genius in investing. Industry people who have been in the entertainment industry for a long time know that although the profession of an actor looked glamorous, as if all the stars shone down upon you. But in fact, in the food chain of the industry, actors were often at the bottom and had the least right to speak. Whether it was a director, a producer or an investor, they were more powerful than an actor. Yan Sheng made his debut at the age of 20, and had won many awards for so many years, but if one really talked about speaking power, he might not be as good as the employees sent by the management.

After all, Yan Sheng came from the Yan family, although he usually behaved in a gentle and approachable manner. But in fact, his desire to control was no more lacking than others. In the past, Yan Sheng only wanted to improve his acting skills, so he didn’t think so much. He didn’t want to be distracted either. But now inspired by Tao Mu, Yan Sheng felt that even if he didn’t go behind the scenes himself, he really should develop other aspects.

It was not like he could let a kid who had only debuted for a year to monopolize the limelight.

After The Vicious Cannon Fodder Was Reborn CH 203 Cameo-ing Together

“You’re going to play a domineering CEO?”

After going home in the evening, Tao Mu told Li Xiaoheng the minor episode that happened when he visited the set today. Li Xiaoheng couldn’t help but ask, “What kind of domineering CEO? Will there be a kabedon?”

“Just like ‘Woman, you caught my attention’?”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

“You seem to know a lot about it!” Tao Mu looked helplessly at Mr. Li, who started acting inexplicably: “Would you like to do a cameo too?”

“When I was leaving, I saw my mother and my sister watching a drama. I overheard a sentence or two.” Li Xiaoheng paused and explained with a smile, “So I still have a bit of an impression.”

“You went home today?” Hearing this, Tao Mu said a little unnaturally, “If I knew I wouldn’t have called you over for dinner. Why didn’t you tell me?” Because Tao Mu’s new place was being renovated, Tao Mu still lived in the small apartment that Mr. Song prepared for him. Mainly because it was close to Beijing Film.

However, the apartment was too small, so there was no place for Li Xiaoheng to stay as well. Therefore, Li Xiaoheng would go back to another apartment in the same residential area to rest every night after dinner. Tao Mu was accustomed to Li Xiaoheng’s schedule, but he didn’t think of Li Xiaoheng going to his parents’ home. If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have made that call, and he would have saved Li Xiaoheng from making the trip from the east to the west of the city.

“My mother heard the two of us talking on the phone, and immediately kicked her eldest son out of the house.” Li Xiaoheng smiled warmly: “Besides, we still have work to discuss, aren’t we going to discuss how to organize the charity gala?”

When it comes to work, Tao Mu didn’t bother to pay attention to his once-in-a-century shyness anymore. He jumped straight to the point: “I think this proposal is very good. Not only can it raise more money for the Second Sino-Japanese War Veterans Charity Fund, but it can also maximize the corporate image. As well as cater to the National Day celebrations…..”

When two bosses who were essentially workaholics got talking about work, time flew by very fast. When Tao Mu came back to his senses, it was already four o’clock the next morning.

Tao Mu patted his forehead, got up and said, “Are you going to sleep or have breakfast?”

Li Xiaoheng went to take a cold shower and said with a smile, “Let’s have breakfast. Don’t you have to report back to school today?”

Beijing Film stipulates that students must report back to school on August 30th, and sophomore students were also responsible for the orientation work. Although Tao Mu was not a student union cadre, but as an influential figure of the 2008 class, acting department, he must be there on time.

For breakfast, it was a pot of small wonton made by Tao Mu himself. It was the kind of small wonton that was picked up gently with chopsticks, for fear that the stuffing would break out. The soup was filled with seaweed, coriander and mustard, and a pinch of dried shrimps to give it an extra flavor.

The two domineering CEOs ate two big bowls of wonton soup, sweat beading on the tip of their nose from the heat. After eating, they felt refreshed from the inside to the outside.

Mr. Tao, who had a ton of idol baggage, sorted out his personal image, and then pulled two large suitcases——the suitcases were filled with gifts that Tao Mu bought for everyone when he was filming in Hong Kong.

Tao Mu, who temporarily acted as Santa Claus, was warmly welcomed by the whole class. When Tao Mu distributed the gifts to everyone, Du Kang, on behalf of everyone, asked Tao Mu hesitantly, “…..Are you really going to play a domineering CEO of an idol drama?”

Tao Mu was stunned: “How did you know?” It hadn’t even been twenty-four hours since he got the script, okay?

“The official FlyNews of “Fashion Storm” has made the announcement, alright?” Someone in the crowd responded quickly. Relying on the fact that no one could pick him out among the crowd of people, the voice continued to ask: “Tao Mu, CEO Tao, Mu Mu, is your crew still lacking in cameos? Special appearances are also fine! Is the kind that is a university student, majoring in professional acting, possessing good acting skills, and also specializing in being handsome and adorable acceptable?”

“No way? You guys actually want to act in idol dramas?” Tao Mu didn’t expect everyone to know so soon. And felt a little embarrassed all of a sudden.

However, ​​these classmates strongly requesting cameo appearances really broke Tao Mu’s usual mindset. He always thought that the students of Beijing Film were all actors with a special artsy style, and planned to go the artist route wholeheartedly.

“I’m doing it to promote my company. I really have no choice. I will just be making a few cameo appearances. Even so I was worried that if our teachers knew about it, they would disagree!” That was why he asked to schedule his filming parts for weekends and evenings.

“You are too modest!” Chu Sui’an said with a smile: “Who doesn’t know that the ratings of the premiere of “Fashion Storm” broke 3.5%, which directly set the ratings record of the weekly broadcast ten o’clock slot in the evening. Moreover, the rhythm of this drama is tight and the plot is well fleshed out, so although it is under the banner of idol drama, it is not the kind of shoddy idol drama that is normally churned out. I think with your OCD personality, it is impossible to allow a shoddy idol drama to be launched, right?”

“Don’t waste time anymore!” Wen Bao stood on tiptoe and hooked an arm around Tao Mu’s neck directly: “As good brothers, just say it directly, if you eat meat, will you give us brothers some soup?”

Immediately, some female classmates raised their paws in the crowd and reminded: “And us sisters!”

Seeing that everyone really wanted to make a cameo in the idol drama, and were not just joking around. Tao Mu also thought about it earnestly and asked hesitantly, “If you want to make a cameo appearance, it is no problem with me. The key is whether our teacher will agree to it? Don’t let them think that I have influenced you guys negatively.”

Abandoning a perfectly good professional actor path, a perfectly good artist career, and instead each and every one ran off to act in idol dramas or something.

Tao Mu could almost imagine how angry their teachers would be when they found out about this.

Many students were also a little worried about the school’s reaction. But for so-called young people, especially young actors, who haven’t imagined that when they were in their 20’s, they could star in an idol drama that swept the country, and then become an overnight sensation, the most popular idol in the eyes of all young people.

It was a pity that as soon as you enter Beijing Film, the shadows were as deep as the sea, and from then on idol dreams became a thing of the past. In view of Beijing Film’s teaching philosophy over the years, if they apply to the school themselves, it was estimated that no matter how finely written the application was, the school would not let them go out to shoot idol dramas. But Tao Mu was different!

Tao Mu was not only an actor, but also an investor. The script he invested in, if he invited his classmates to make a cameo due to lack of manpower, there would be no problem at all. After all, Tao Mu invested in “The Great Wall of Flesh and Blood” and brought them all in for minor roles. With this precedent, the students felt that the teachers would definitely not refuse Tao Mu’s request. And “Fashion Storm” had just aired two episodes, and good word of mouth had already come out. It was estimated that the school would take this into account and should not refuse.

The group of classmates handed over the pre-written application for filming to Tao Mu, and said eagerly, “We all depend on you.”

Tao Mu: “…..” What do you mean you all depend on me?!

After receiving the thick stack of application forms, Tao Mu weakly wiped his face. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to the teacher’s office of the acting department.

Despite having not been seen personally for an entire summer vacation, Tao Mu was still the man who caused a blood storm in the entertainment industry. The teachers of the acting department looked at Tao Mu’s handsome face that often appeared on entertainment headlines, and joked: “It’s just your first day back to school and you already came to find your teacher, Mr. Tao must have a motive, right?”

“Professor, please don’t tease me.” Tao Mu pretended to smile shyly, before presenting the prepared gifts one by one.

The male teachers received watches and the female teachers received bracelets or necklaces. They were all classic models of international brands. For ordinary students, this kind of gift was definitely a luxury. But for a CEO who was worth nearly several billions, it was considered polite and affectionate.

The teachers did not refuse, and accepted Tao Mu’s gift with a smile, asking, “Tell me, what are you doing here?”

Tao Mu didn’t waste time, and directly explained the thoughts and ideas of the students who wanted to make a cameo appearance on the crew of “Fashion Storm”. Of course, he also utilized some techniques when saying this. Briefly passing over the subjective needs of his classmates and mainly mentioning that he had just invested in an idol drama and has no experience. And so right now he couldn’t find young actors of the right age, the right image, and more importantly, the acting skills. So he had no choice but to ask his classmates for help.

Director Huang of the Acting Department looked at Tao Mu with a half-smile. Of course, he also paid attention to the idol drama that his student invested in. For dramas of that level, the fact that it managed to break the ratings record of 3.5% was enough to prove everything.

Since the quality of the script had passed the test, the production team of the crew had passed the test, and the TV series was also produced by one of their students. If their children wanted to scratch their acting itch, then as teachers they had nothing to say.

The outside world always says that Beijing Film cannot produce idols, maybe this time was Beijing Film’s chance to prove itself.

“For the students in the acting department, whether they have studied well or not, it all depends on their performance in front of the camera. So if it does not delay their studies, we also hope that the students will have more opportunities to act in front of the camera.” Director Huang expressed tactfully: “Freshman and sophomore students have classes to attend, but from junior year onwards, your senior brothers and sisters can take on acting roles. You can go and have a look, if there is a suitable role, and if you haven’t found an actor, you can also let them try.”

Tao Mu was enlightened, and saluted with a smile: “Yes, sir.”

The news spread that Tao Mu himself will be making a cameo appearance as a domineering CEO in “Fashion Storm”, and that he also planned to invite a group of Beijing Film students to the crew to make cameo appearances as well.

Yan Film next door was the first to react. While laughing at Beijing Film, this old antique, also couldn’t help but to dive into idol dramas, at the same time they were also filled with envy and hate at the many opportunities Beijing Film’s students were privy to. After all, “Fashion Storm” had been praised by the fashion industry, the advertising industry and the film and television industry because of its excellent production and high-level sponsors since its inception. The 3.5% viewership rating of the first episode even better reflected the nature of this weekly drama’s overnight popularity.

On August 31st, when the third and fourth episodes were broadcast during the students’ return to school, the highest viewership rate exceeded 3.7%, which once again confirmed that the audience of this drama was not limited to students, but a full-scale explosion of all age groups. The market survey data released by the TV station later also directly confirmed that the audience of this idol drama actually included all students and white-collar wage earners between the ages of 18 and 35.

And as the plot unfolded, the sales of various international brands that appeared in the TV series also began to increase. Such an idol drama so successful at promoting sales once again attracted the attention of the fashion industry and the advertising industry. It was said that some advertising companies have begun to study this idol drama as a classic case.

And according to rumors, in order to promote the charity gala, Mr. Tao of FlyNews planned to invite some business people and bosses to make cameo appearances in the drama——that was, to put the real guests of the charity gala into the TV series for cameo appearances. Although this rumor had not been confirmed. However, some gossip reporters took photos of the “Fashion Storm” production team going to FlyNews.com’s upcoming charity gala venue for rehearsal.

It was conceivable that if you could play a cameo role in this idol drama, you would not only have a chance to become popular overnight, but you might even make connections with some big bosses in the business circle.

After the rumors spread, many artists took the initiative to contact the “Fashion Storm” crew and tactfully expressed that they could make a cameo appearance. Even the entertainment media broke out a lot of pictures of big names in the crew, giving Beijing Film students tips in filming. It made Yan Film’s students, who had never liked Beijing Film very much, terribly envious.

In addition to envy, some people thought of their school’s freshman Shen Yu, who was sent over by the son of the Luo Group when school started.

As everyone knows, there was a film and television company under the Luo Group called Longteng Entertainment. And Longteng Entertainment, wasn’t it another investor in “Fashion Storm”?

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Thinking of this, Yan Film’s students took the initiative to find Shen Yu, and asked him to ask young master Luo if he could also let Yan Film’s students make cameo appearances.

“It’s an unspoken rule in the entertainment industry for investors to plug people into the crew. Since Tao Mu can put Beijing Film students into the crew, the young master Luo should also have speaking rights in the crew, right? You have such a good relationship with young master Luo, if you make the request, young master Luo would not refuse, right?”
