Chapter 76 The Voice of the Entertainment Industry: A Passerby in the Story (8)

When Jiang Yue returned the clothes and jewelry and went home to take a shower, she could hear her assistant shouting from time to time: "Wow, two million followers! Oh ho ho, Sister Yue is awesome!" Her excitement was almost unbearable to watch. When Jiang Yue came out of the shower, the number of followers had already exceeded three million. Because today's trending topics were all about this news, some people might not be able to go to the cinema to see a movie right away due to time constraints, but listening to a song was still easy. Even during work hours, a song only takes a few minutes with headphones on.

So in just a few hours, Jiang Yue's fans increased from 500,000 to 3 million. To celebrate, Jiang Yue ordered a big meal. Her assistant ate happily, squinting and shaking her head, playing with her phone with one hand. She laughed when she saw a good comment and gritted her teeth as if she wanted to eat the person who wrote the bad one. After the meal, Jiang Yue asked her assistant to take a beautiful photo and posted it on Weibo to greet everyone. She went to sleep without reading the comments.

The next morning, Jiang Yue woke up and tried to check her phone, but it was so choppy with messages that it lags. It took a while for the phone to catch up. She looked at the messages, some friendly and some abusive. She also checked the trending topics, and her own was still trending. But then two new ones appeared: #FuLinJinGeGeIsSoHandsome and #WangJiYueIsTryingToProfileHerself. Jiang Yue clicked on them and found out that the female lead had tried to scam the male lead. Oh right, the female lead isn't the female lead yet.

Jiang Yue remembered that the female lead arrived not long after the staged accident, because the book's opening chapters mentioned that the staged accident had happened not long ago. Then Jiang Yue opened her browser and searched for "A Day in the Life of a Celebrity," but there was no news about the show yet. It seemed that the female lead would have to wait a while before she could transmigrate.

The following months were busy, from the moment she opened her eyes until she closed them every day. She even spent Chinese New Year on a plane. During this time, Jiang Yue released several new songs and an album, which sold over a million copies. The revenue split between the company and Jiang Yue was also changed to 50/50. Jiang Yue made a fortune, and it has to be said that making money in the entertainment industry is really fast.

Jiang Yue had just won a singing competition that day, and Zhao Qing had sent her a message saying she'd been offered a variety show to rest. Resting is a luxury for celebrities; they usually just take on a variety show as a break. Jiang Yue lay back in her chair, and her assistant opened her phone and asked her to choose one. Jiang Yue glanced at the first one listed, and it was "A Day in the Life of a Celebrity." Because the male lead, Fu Linjin, was going to participate, it was considered the most prestigious show and guaranteed to have high viewership.

Jiang Yue glanced at the list and saw that there were six regular guests: the male lead, Fu Lin, a film and television actor; Huo Haoxiang, a veteran actor and television actor; Song Hanxi, a popular young idol with 80 million fans; Liu Shuyun, the national goddess and the first love of countless young men; Chu Ping, a veteran singer and actress; and then there was Wang Jiyue, an 18th-tier actress with a history of scandals. Jiang Yue couldn't understand why there was a little lamb among a pack of wolves; the level of these guests was completely mismatched.

The production team invited Jiang Yue as a guest star, and this guest star changes every episode. Since Jiang Yue is arguably the most popular singer this year, she was definitely on the list of invitees. Jiang Yue looked at the fee and thought, "Hmm, very generous. No wonder she's the male lead's brother, Ming Yu, and produced by the Ming Group. They're certainly not short of money."

Jiang Yue closed her eyes and thought about whether she should go and take a look. In the end, she decided to participate because it was quite interesting. So she asked her assistant to tell the company that she had accepted the variety show. The contract was signed the next day and the show was scheduled to start airing a week later. In the past, the shows were pre-recorded and could be re-recorded if there were any problems. However, this variety show was the first to use a live broadcast format, so it was very popular.

Jiang Yue also got busy. To be honest, despite being a veteran actor and TV star, Jiang Yue knew almost nothing about them. The original owner of this body only knew their names and had seen some clips of their films and TV shows. After Jiang Yue transmigrated, she was so busy that she only watched a few shows at the beginning and didn't have time to watch the later ones. So Jiang Yue asked her assistant to compile information about these people's classic works, songs, and other aspects. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing if she didn't know what shows or songs they were mentioned.

Time flies, and the show started recording in the blink of an eye. Because it was being broadcast live, the production crew arrived early in the morning: "Hello, we are from the production crew of 'A Day in the Life of a Celebrity'."

"Sister Yue, the crew is here. Shouldn't you finish your makeup before opening the door?"

"No need, go open it. We're all about authenticity!" The assistant responded and went to open the door. As soon as the door opened, a camera came into view. The cameraman and the crew looked around the living room: "Hello, may we come in? Is the mystery guest here?"

"It's convenient, it's convenient. Sister Yue is washing her face, please have a seat in the living room!" After saying that, the assistant welcomed them in and closed the door. Just as the assistant appeared on screen, the live stream chat exploded:

[Sister Yue?! Oh my god, isn't that my wife's silly little assistant? Could the mystery guest be my wife?]

[Yes, ahhhhhh, look, the driver's here too!! Quick, quick, quick! Go tell my girlfriends!!!]

[My wife! My wife! My wife! My wife!! I'm saying it three times because it's important!]

Jiang Yue came out of the bathroom after washing her face. The cameraman saw her and shoved the camera right in her face. Jiang Yue smiled and said, "Hello everyone, I'm Jiang Yue!"

[Hi, honey, it's your husband!]

【I'm fine, hello Yue-jie, Little Moon reporting for duty!】×10086

[Sister Yue's skin is so good! Doesn't anyone notice when she's completely bare-faced?]

Afterwards, seeing that it was still early, Jiang Yue gave the cameraman a tour of her home and then did a live stream of her makeup application. Jiang Yue didn't apply many cosmetics; instead, she took out a box from her vanity, which contained some homemade face creams perfectly suited to her skin type. Keen-eyed viewers in the live stream noticed this as well.

[Does any of you ladies know what cosmetics Yuejie uses? Please help!]

[Me too!]

[Thanks for the invitation. I just got off the plane in the US. The cosmetics didn't have labels so I couldn't tell what brand they were, but given Jiang Yue's status, they definitely wouldn't be cheap. Ladies, don't overthink it.]

Jiang Yue was still focused on doing her makeup, unaware that the live stream had exploded, with viewership exceeding one million and several trending topics including #A Day in the Life of a Celebrity is Jiang Yue's Mystery Guest and #JiangYueWithoutMakeup. A dozen minutes later, Jiang Yue finished her makeup and showed it to everyone: "Do you think I look pretty?"

【Beautiful!】×100086!

[Is makeup really that fast? My girlfriend takes two hours to do her makeup. Is there something wrong with either of them?]

[Upstairs, is it possible that the time was too long because your girlfriend isn't pretty?]

Actually, they both have problems; one is too short and the other is too long!

Has no one noticed that there aren't many cosmetics on the dressing table? There are just a few bottles and jars, and none of them have labels. Aren't you curious?
