He smiled slightly: "Day and Night is my turning point. It's an urban fantasy novel that's more down-to-earth than my previous two fantasy novels. I hope my fans will like it."
He had just graduated, yet the amount in his bank account had already reached a level that his peers would never have in their lifetime. Although he is now a full-time writer, he also holds a transcendent position in the film and television industry.
His books are hailed by fans as the top of the modern fantasy novel genre. The derivative and adaptation rights of his IPs are extremely difficult to acquire. Putting aside the smaller aspects like comics and animation, game, TV series, and movie companies would be reluctant to ask for less than 50 million.
He had more wealth than he could ever spend in his lifetime, yet he continued to write diligently and consistently.
Fans once joked: "Don't offend any of the other wives, just don't offend He Laogou. Other wives might still write articles to earn money after being criticized, but if you criticize He Laogou, he'll just run away with the money."
Now, with the release of "Day and Night," the book has naturally become a treasure for fans, a darling of the industry, and a tempting target for film and television companies.
Even before the film and television adaptation rights have been secured, some actors have already hired online trolls to promote themselves on relevant Weibo accounts, attempting to use the public's support as a gimmick to hype themselves up and become the lead actor.
If you were to ask Cheng Yi what she regrets most in this world, it would be that after her true identity as the heiress was exposed, she agreed to be replaced by the Cheng family.
If she were still in the He family, her achievements would be far greater than this. A certain actress who starred in the adaptation of He Chen's previous novel has already become a film queen and a top star, while the male lead who starred in the adaptation of He Chen's previous novel has also become a first-tier star.
If she were still He Chen's sister, she would have been the lead actress in all these works, and she would definitely become a superstar.
Unfortunately, it's too late to say anything now.
The assistant added, "Jupiter Talk sent a business invitation, inviting Sister Yi to participate in their program interview. Brother Feng means that this program is acceptable, as it can not only increase her visibility but also promote the drama. Sister Yi has been quiet for a long time, and the fans are getting restless."
Cheng Yi casually dismissed He Chen's video call and, taking her agent Wu Feng's advice, said, "Answer it."
The assistant continued, "What Brother Feng means is that 'Day and Night' is so popular right now, and given your relationship with He Chen, he wants you to subtly mention He Chen when you're on a show."
Cheng Yi's expression suddenly changed. She frowned deeply, as if she really didn't want to hear such words.
Seeing her dark expression, the assistant immediately became very cautious, barely daring to breathe.
Although Cheng Yi presents a gentle and kind image to the outside world, she is not actually kind to them. Although she has never beaten or scolded them and pays them more than other masters, one look from her is enough to intimidate them.
After a while, Cheng Yi returned to normal, closed her eyes, and responded with a soft "Mmm".
Over the years, she has tried to ride on He Chen's coattails quite a bit. If that's the case, why is she still being so coy and refusing? She is no longer the innocent white lotus she once was.
It's not her fault; He Chen is just too popular. Any topic even remotely related to him generates a lot of buzz. People's curiosity about this genius writer is incredibly strong, yet He Chen rarely reveals anything about himself.
If she says on the show that she used to be He Chen's sister, the show will definitely be a huge hit, and she might even get better endorsements because of it.
However, Cheng Yi did not want to do that unless she had a choice. It was not because she still had any hope for He Chen, but because she dared not underestimate He Chen's love for He Jing.
