To be honest, Long Xun, the chairman, is really boring.
Most of the work is done by the subordinates, and the various group companies under the conglomerate can operate independently. The chairman and the head of the conglomerate are more of a symbolic figure.
Too much money becomes just a number, no wonder Long Xun in the original novel was so bored that he suddenly had the idea to act.
However, acting sometimes requires a willingness to sacrifice oneself for the job, which Long Xun simply cannot do.
After playing games and completing his daily tasks in the villa, Long Xun closed the game and began to think about what he should do in this world.
There should at least be something to do before a backtracking point is found, right?
Opening the portable system, an egg-shaped object appeared in the taming panel; that was Milk Tea undergoing evolution. Milk Tea began evolving after being stimulated by spiritual energy within the Phoenix Palace, and it seemed unlikely to complete its evolution within this world.
Recalling the scene of his first encounter with A-Chen in this life, Long Xun was still a little bothered by the other's ghost-like expression.
Was he that ugly back then?
While scrolling through Weibo, Ye Anan suddenly looked up and asked, "Boss, all the Demon King fans are asking when you're going to film a new drama. They're really looking forward to it."
Long Xun slightly raised his eyelids to indicate that he was listening, but did not speak.
“Actually, boss, even if you don’t act, there are other ways to get into the entertainment industry, like being a singer or a host. You can become a star that way too,” Ye Anan suggested. “And even if we do act, we can actually fund our own productions, right? As long as we can buy a good script, we can make a film.”
Long Xun didn't answer. He wasn't like the original Long Xun who desperately wanted to become famous just to attract the goddess's attention. He only started acting because she happened to be on set, so he just happened to get the role.
Ye Anan waited a while before finally telling the truth: "Boss, if you have any instructions, just say so. Don't just stand there in a daze. Your gaze is putting a lot of pressure on me..."
Long Xun: "..."
He waved his hand and told Ye Anan to get lost.
Then Long Xun turned on his computer and anonymously posted a question on the forum.
How can I get the person I like to notice me?
...
The news of the "Big Demon King" leaving the production team on Weibo overwhelmingly sided with Long Xun because of his statement, "Understanding doesn't mean you won't be sad." Although everyone disagreed with his departure, they all expressed their understanding and best wishes to Long Xun.
At the same time, a video previously released by Long Xun's PR team and online trolls unexpectedly took over the homepage at an unexpected speed. It was the part where Gou Di said to Long Xun, "Don't underestimate a young man's potential."
Yun Qi Gongzi: I feel like the Great Demon King was completely dumbfounded at the time...laughing so hard I cried.
flippy: Actually, if you only watch the second half, this person's acting skills are really good. Just listen to those few lines, they are really exciting and very suitable for some male-oriented novels.
Kwon Gyeong: Hahahaha, is this guy out of his mind?
Gou Di never expected that, after Long Xun, he would become the second person in the crew to quickly become a sensation.
Long Xun's fame is fame, but his fame is a dark one. The fact that he himself was jumping up and down and swearing, compared to Long Xun's current attitude of simply leaving the crew, clearly shows that Long Xun didn't look down on him, but rather that he had never even seen him.
The most awkward thing in the world is when you treat someone as an imaginary enemy, and that person doesn't even know who you are.
At this point, the conflict between Gou Di and Long Xun was merely a source of amusement for netizens in their spare time. However, Gou Di's next Weibo post ignited the entire affair.
Gou Di v: Long Xun, are you scared?
This sentence instantly enraged the Demon King's fans.
Who is this Gou Di? Who does he think he is? How can he have such a big face? He even said that their Great Demon King is afraid of him? Look at his ugly face, can he even compare to a single hair of the Great Demon King?
The enraged fans of the "Demon King" flooded Gou Di's Weibo, spamming the comments section of his outrageous post with all sorts of sarcastic and bizarre remarks, criticizing his shamelessness.
Gou Di remained unmoved, completely ignoring the anger of the Demon King's fans, and instead posted a new Weibo post.
Gou Di v: Long Xun, your fans all know how to be angry, but you backed down? I misjudged you.
However, Long Xun on the other end didn't actually look at Weibo; instead, he carefully read each of the replies to him.
Floor 1: These days, people like people who are multi-talented. If you have some talent, then a lot of people will like you. Play the guitar, sing a song, or draw a picture. Of course, you have to do it well. If you are into abstract art, I don't recommend doing that.
2nd floor: The person upstairs is outdated. To attract someone you like, the most important thing is: good looks!
3rd floor: If he's good-looking and talented, he's practically a male god!
17th Floor: How to attract someone? There are too many. Being considerate and gentle, having a good personality, being handsome, having talent, being good at talking—any of these will attract the opposite sex.
23rd floor: Big and skilled.
33rd floor: Ugh, 23rd floor is so dirty.
...
Long Xun stared at the talent category and fell into deep thought.
Then, while Gou Di was still making a ruckus online, Long Xun updated his Weibo with a video of him playing guitar and singing.
Mo Yingge is just an ordinary office worker who browses Taobao and Weibo in his spare time. He also has some impression of the Demon King who has been popular on the internet a few days ago and now.
Although she was amazed by the man's good looks, as a very rational person, she only cheered him on on Weibo. Privately, she still had reservations about someone who only had a pretty face but no good works.
However, since he was someone she had cheered for before, when she saw that Long Xun had updated a video, which looked like it was the same handsome guy singing and playing the guitar, she clicked on it.
