Brother Dao Took The Entertainment Industry By Storm Fans Beg Me Not To Kill Anymore Chapter 395

[ … words ]

The first season of “Corner Also” concluded perfectly, but it did not mean the end of the characters.

Xiao He publicly posted a short essay on various major social media platforms, temporarily bidding farewell to the role of Yin Qi.

[Xiao He: See you later, sis. [Group photo]]

[Goodbye, Yin Qi.]

[See you later, looking forward to our next meeting.]

[Yin Qi, we will always wait for you! Please come back to our side soon!]

For the busy Xiao He, the broadcast period felt like it passed in the blink of an eye, but for many people, it was an unforgettable time of genuinely and wholeheartedly chasing the drama, witnessing the growth of the “Corner Also” main team.

Very quickly, as Xiao He said goodbye to Yin Qi, his related announcement had already climbed onto the Hot Search.

Relevant fans and viewers were all posting their comments below.

…

As the largest investor and executive producer of “Corner Also”, Zhuang Hongyi’s wealth and influence were evident in every detail, such as the restaurant where they were holding this gathering.

As the car once again drew closer and closer to the central Forbidden City, Xiao He’s heart was once again lifted.

Fortunately, the vehicle did not absurdly charge directly into the very center in the end, but the restaurant they were at could still see the red tiles at the edge of the palace walls from a distance.

The restaurant building itself was also magnificent and imposing. The red bricks and red tiles didn’t appear vulgar in the slightest. Inside, decorative items were placed every ten steps a painting, every five steps an antique. Xiao He walked on the red carpet, keeping his eyes straight ahead, not daring to think about whether the displayed items specially covered in transparent glass were genuine artifacts or fakes the owner used to put on a show—

Hehe, though one would think the owner probably wouldn’t stoop to using fakes to keep up appearances.

Actually, it wasn’t just Xiao He. Xiao Chen, following Xiao He, only dared to stare fixedly at the ground while walking this stretch, afraid he might accidentally trip and knock over something he shouldn’t touch.

Liu Rulan walked at the front. Although her face didn’t show it, her steps clearly indicated she was trying to maintain the maximum distance from the things on both sides.

Soon, they were ushered into a private room.

The atmosphere in the private room was already quite lively. Although the dishes hadn’t been formally served yet, everyone was chatting with each other, the mood very active.

Seeing the most important actor had arrived, many people stood up to express their welcome.

“Brother Xiao, over here, over here!”

Yan Shaohan waved excitedly at Xiao He.

Xiao He said hello to Liu Rulan, then Liu Rulan and Xiao Chen proactively walked to a side table and sat down, while Xiao He came to the seat Yan Shaohan had specially saved for him.

“Huh? Have you really been rushing your drafts every day lately?”

Seeing the thick dark circles under Yan Shaohan’s eyes, Xiao He was somewhat surprised.

“Hehe, it’s all because everyone is rushing me.”

Yan Shaohan said very gloomily, “Senior Brother Zhuang wants me to try to produce the script content for the third season immediately after the second season officially concludes.”

Xiao He: “…That’s tough.”

Having to produce both the comic and the script, Xiao He almost felt pity for him.

But then Xiao He suddenly thought of a question: “Since that’s the case, why don’t you just produce the script first, then the comic?”

Generally speaking, drawing a comic is indeed a bit slower (mainly because Yan Shaohan works alone, not in a studio), but since he’s already creating the comic, Yan Shaohan should already have a general idea and direction for the subsequent plot.

Xiao He thought that rather than waiting for this procrastinator Yan Shaohan to continue creating the comic, it would be better to first create and polish all the subsequent scripts. That way, the production team could start acting first, and then maybe the drama version’s plot would progress faster than the original comic’s.

“What kind of nonsense are you talking about!”

Yan Shaohan suddenly covered Xiao He’s mouth, looking at Zhuang Hongyi with a vigilant expression.

Fortunately, Zhuang Hongyi was currently chatting with a few other producers and didn’t hear Xiao He’s words.

“Mmm? Mmm—”

Xiao He was manually silenced, looking utterly confused.

“My brother, please don’t say this trick out loud.” Yan Shaohan said, half threatening, half pleading. “I’m counting on having a good rest during this next period. If you do this, wouldn’t I be rushed even more?”

Being rushed for comic drafts is already miserable enough. What if Zhuang Hongyi and the others think of this trick later? Then wouldn’t I have to be rushed for both the script and the comic drafts?

Damn it all, if it really came to that, I’d really have to find a place to jump off!

“Mmm mmm.”

Xiao He nodded.

Only then did Yan Shaohan let go of his hand, letting out a long sigh.

“I heard all of that~~”

A faint, ghostly female voice inserted itself between the two.

“Holy crap!”

Xiao He was fine, but Yan Shaohan was startled. He turned his head to see Yuan Sitong had somehow squatted down behind them without them noticing.

“When did you get here? You scared me to death!”

Yan Shaohan complained while clutching his chest.

“Hehe, just now, arriving right after Brother Xiao and them.”

Yuan Sitong rubbed her hands together, smiling particularly slyly. “But I didn’t expect that, Director Yan, you have such a little secret to avoid being rushed for updates~~”

Yan Shaohan’s face turned alternately pale and dark. Then he clenched his fist, gritting his teeth and saying, “Don’t you spread nonsense, or later—snap snap!”

He made a slicing motion across his neck with his hand.

“Then of course I won’t spread it around. But, shouldn’t I get some benefit?”

Yuan Sitong wasn’t afraid of him at all. She directly rolled her eyes, thinking of a good idea.

“What benefit? I declare first, I’d rather die than update more!”

Yan Shaohan said with a wary look.

Xiao He, on the side, looked left and right, appearing as if he wanted to speak but hesitated.

Should he tell these two that since even he could think of this operation, Zhuang Hongyi’s side must have already considered it!

Since he hadn’t mentioned it to Yan Shaohan, it was probably because Zhuang Hongyi also greatly respected Yan Shaohan’s creative freedom and didn’t want to force Yan Shaohan to create all the remaining plot of “Corner Also” early under the pretext of being eager to make money.

After all, squeezing all the value out of “Corner Also” and Yan Shaohan at once didn’t seem like something a businessperson like Zhuang Hongyi would do.

At Zhuang Hongyi’s current level, he had long since disdained the reckless behavior of seeking quick success and instant benefits.

So Yan Shaohan’s worry and Yuan Sitong’s “threat” actually didn’t hold water.

But before Xiao He could think about whether he should expose this matter, Zhuang Hongyi called out to him.

“Xiao Xiao, let me introduce you. This is President Wang, this is President Huang…”

Zhuang Hongyi smiled and introduced the several producers and investors beside him to Xiao He one by one.

Xiao He immediately put on a smile and shook hands with these presidents, greeting them.

These presidents clearly knew about Xiao He’s situation. Their conversation carried hints of probing, seemingly very interested in Xiao He and the Linghui Entertainment behind him.

Facing these big shots, Xiao He remained unperturbed, calmly responding to their probes.

Soon, everyone was chatting happily.

“Good, not bad. President Xiao is indeed young.”

One of the presidents, chatting happily, looked Xiao He up and down, his face full of emotion.

“Our company has no plans to expand into the variety show field in the near future.”

Xiao He replied with a smile. “But since it’s President Huang’s invitation, I’m also very curious about what kind of variety show you’ve taken a liking to. It must be a very promising potential stock, I imagine.”

“Hahaha, actually, it’s a bit embarrassing to say. It’s just a small, insignificant little investment. I told Director Zhuang, and he wasn’t even willing to invest.”

The president with the Beijing accent laughed heartily, not forgetting to point at Zhuang Hongyi beside him.

Xiao He also looked at Zhuang Hongyi.

Zhuang Hongyi unhurriedly took a sip of tea, also looking at Xiao He, then smiled and shook his head: “Betting small to win big isn’t my style. But if Xiao Xiao is interested, you could give it a try.”

Xiao He felt somewhat surprised inside.

Was this proactively sending an investment project his way?

Why?

Xiao He subtly observed this President Huang, who spoke with a natural Beijing accent and wore a large string of sandalwood beads on his wrist. He always felt this person’s aura was very similar to someone he knew.
