Chapter 91: Xiangyun’s Senior Agent
The official blog of Jiao Yue Chronicle irregularly posts some filming behind-the-scenes.
At ten in the morning this day, the staff of the official blog, as usual, posted new filming behind-the-scenes photos.
This time’s copy was “The moon has light and shadow, thoughts have truth and falsehood”, followed by three stills from the drama.
The drama stills used the heart demon scene of the male second lead Chu Zheng.
Three still photos, close-ups of the male and female actors on the left and right, and a panoramic shot in the middle.
Jiang Feng, the actor playing Chu Zheng, doesn’t have many fans, but the fans tried their best to like, leave complimentary comments, and repost, considering the mission accomplished.
But unexpectedly, an hour later, the reposts, likes, and comments on this post suddenly doubled, even sparking small-scale discussions.
The cause was someone screenshotting this post and the stills and posting them elsewhere.
“Friends, come help me identify, is the beautiful miss in this still Xuan Xia?”
“Damn, what is this good thing?”
“Filming stills from next door Jiao Yue Chronicle, happened to see it on the home feed. Stunning at first sight, so is this miss Xuan Xia from our dating show? Is it?”
“It’s her, it’s her, it’s her, though not quite the same as modern outfits, but recognizable at a glance.”
“Wow, this look, love it love it. By the way, who is the guy, he looks so handsome too.”
“Most importantly, this pair looks pretty compatible.”
“What are you saying upstairs! Where do you put Zhou Shiqing? Please look up clearly, this is the Thump Thump Dating Show community! Breaking CP is outrageous!”
“Funny. Does Zhou Shiqing have any CP vibe? Zhou Shiqing’s CP with him feels just like an arranged marriage from the old era. Cringey to death, can’t ship it at all.”
“Whether we can ship it or not, won’t we know after tonight’s first date episode airs?”
“I dare say this only after seeing the preview!”
“Are you guys okay? What does this have to do with Zhou Shiqing again? If you’re really that idle, go screw bolts.”
Netizens saw that Zhou Shiqing’s fans had arrived on the battlefield and immediately scattered.
But soon they all sneaked into the comment section of Jiao Yue Chronicle and started freely expressing themselves.
Quite a few were attracted by the stills and asked who the male second lead actor was.
Jiang Feng’s few fans saw this and eagerly started popularizing his past film and TV works.
Wishing the whole world could see the treasure man they stan.
When this information feedback reached the film crew, it became “Brother Feng, your Weibo gained fans, quite a few in this one hour.”
“Ah, feels like it’s been a long time since I gained so many fans in a short time.”
As for Xuan Xia’s side, since the dating show just started airing, she gains new fans almost every day.
But Xuan Xia doesn’t pay attention to this, so she’s unaware of which time periods see more fan growth.
……
Today’s filming schedule had no scenes for Xuan Xia, but after the first day, she was determined to properly learn some acting skills, so after getting up, she ran to the film set to observe.
Yang Wanxiu and Li Xinze accompanied her.
“Xia Xia, tonight the dating show will air the second episode content. At two o’clock later, the program group will post, and you’ll need to repost it then.” Yang Wanxiu said.
Xuan Xia’s line of sight didn’t leave the filming actors, and she replied upon hearing, “Set a reminder for me.”
“Mm, I’ve already set it.”
“Good. Xiuxiu is awesome.”
Yang Wanxiu saw her insincere praise and found it amusing, but the next second, she suddenly went “Eh”.
This sound finally made Xuan Xia look at her properly, “What’s up?”
Yang Wanxiu raised her finger and pointed at the film set entrance.
Xuan Xia looked over accordingly and saw two men, one tall and one short.
The shorter one was older, middle-aged appearance, the taller one younger, around twenty-four or twenty-five.
Because of the distance, finer details couldn’t be seen clearly.
Both were wearing casual clothes, so their background couldn’t be discerned.
Xuan Xia asked Yang Wanxiu: “Who are those two?”
Yang Wanxiu turned back to look at Xuan Xia, her expression a bit confused and surprised, “That’s Huang Ke. He’s our Xiangyun’s senior agent.”
Does Xuan Xia know him? Of course not.
As for senior agent, isn’t Ji Ziyao one?
Yang Wanxiu saw her expression and knew she didn’t understand Huang Ke’s status.
She racked her brains thinking how to introduce him, and soon, Yang Wanxiu thought of something, “His status is just like Xie Yun’s agent Zhao Mingfang, also a top agent.”
Xuan Xia remained unmoved, “Oh.”
For Xuan Xia, Zhao Mingfang’s time is almost up.
Using Zhao Mingfang as reference only made her think the other wasn’t anything special.
Moreover, whether Huang Ke or Zhao Mingfang, even as top agents, they had nothing to do with her.
But it was different for Yang Wanxiu, who couldn’t help introducing more, “Agent Huang has brought out two best actors and one top actress under him. Now Xiangyun’s top brother and top sister are both under him.”
With this, Xuan Xia roughly understood.
The so-called company top brother and top sister were naturally the artists with the most resources tilted from the company, the ones being heavily promoted.
Since he’s the agent for the company’s heavily promoted artists, he’s naturally highly valued by the company.
So why did such a person suddenly appear at the film set?
Xuan Xia quickly looked toward the rest area on the side, where Lu Mindan was standing up with a full smile.
Soon, her guess was confirmed.
Those two made contact with Lu Mindan.
“Looks like she found a high branch.” Xuan Xia said.
Yang Wanxiu looked at the three with a complicated expression.
Not sure if Xuan Xia mis-saw, but she seemed to see Lu Mindan throwing a glance her way.
Not long after, the three who connected turned and walked out of the film set.
Yang Wanxiu kept paying attention to their movements and muttered to herself upon seeing this: “They wouldn’t be going to find Brother Ji now, would they?”
Xuan Xia agreed: “Probably.”
By evening, after Xuan Xia finished observing at the film set and returned to the hotel, she happened to run into Lu Mindan and Huang Ke et al. who were also coming back from outside, and even Ji Ziyao was there.
Lu Mindan saw her and lifted her chin, sweeping away yesterday’s state of being repeatedly angered by her.
Xuan Xia just smiled, ignoring her demeanor.
At this time, Ji Ziyao came out and introduced Huang Ke to Xuan Xia.
“This is the company’s Brother Huang.”
Then to Huang Ke: “Brother Huang, this is the new artist I’m managing, Xuan Xia.”
Xuan Xia politely exchanged greetings.
Huang Ke sized up Xuan Xia and commented: “Good image. But Xiao Ji, you as always don’t know how to promote people.”
Ji Ziyao heard this and gave an awkward smile.
Huang Ke, acting like a teacher, directly lectured: “Finally got on the free ride of big traffic, how can you not seize the chance? What is big traffic for? It’s for riding on. If you don’t ride it, how does the traffic come to you?”
Ji Ziyao still just smiled along, saying nothing.
Huang Ke passionately ranted for a bit, then saw Ji Ziyao not playing along at all, shook his head involuntarily, and felt even more disappointed in Ji Ziyao.
“You, you, if you keep being this confused, what people will you have left under you as an agent.”
“Just me left? That sounds pretty good.” Xuan Xia sincerely picked up the thread.
Everyone looked at her: “……”
No after-shelf thoughts, I have no thoughts! As for explosive updates, spare the disabled hands, okay? I can only guarantee I’ll write a bit more every day, believe that someday I’ll scrape together extras. Finally, thanks to everyone still here, hehe.
Oh right right right, and thanks everyone for occasionally catching my typos.
