Lu Yuanzhou has lived a wealthy life since he was a child. He could easily get anything he wanted, which caused him to not care much about many things, or even be indifferent to them.

Love has never been a necessity for him. He can be single until he is 30 years old, and he doesn't want to just find a girlfriend to prove that he has no physical problems.

Lu Yuanzhou simply felt annoyed. Seeing his friends breaking up and getting back together with countless girlfriends due to relationship problems, he felt that having a relationship was simply a waste of time and life.

He was used to being flattered and could not imagine himself trying to please a woman one day. If such a woman really appeared, he felt that the end of the world would be almost here.

But now, the end of the world has not yet arrived, and the woman he wanted to please unexpectedly appeared.

At the beginning, perhaps it was really because Chu Xiu was useful to him that he looked at her with respect. Otherwise, even if they got a marriage certificate, she would be no different from other women in his eyes.

Because of her specialness, he paid more attention to her, and as he got used to being with her, his mood changed. Especially every time he woke up from a deep sleep, the first thing he saw was her in his arms. The satisfaction he felt was indescribable.

He wanted to see her all the time. He liked her no matter she was angry or happy. He even thought she was cute when she was angry with him.

When it comes to major decisions, Lu Yuanzhou always keeps his word, and the same goes for feelings. Since he wants Chu Xiu's love, he wants it for a lifetime.

Now, the woman I was prepared to love for the rest of my life was inexplicably brought to the hot search list, and was scolded by a bunch of messy people, saying that she was trying to ride on the popularity.

Lu Yuanzhou couldn't stand it.

For a woman from mainland China, it’s like a piece of cake for her to be on the trending search list. Does she really need to take advantage of her?

"No matter what means you use, in an hour, I want to see a few trending searches about Chu Xiu on the top, squeezing out Gu Qinghe."

His expression was calm and his tone was relaxed, as if he was chatting with a friend, but the content of his conversation was enough to scare anyone to death.

Lan Hua had seen a lot of big scenes, but this was the first time she met such a domineering and unreasonable boss. He bought hot searches for an artist who had little traffic, and bought several of them at once. He really thought the money was too much.

"Is buying a few too many?" Lan Hua asked on the phone, "It would seem too deliberate."

Lu Yuanzhou said: "Buying one is buying, buying several is also buying, just make up a more realistic reason. Didn't you just say that you want to clarify that I am an investor? Then you can say that I am her number one fan, and that the boss of Lu's is chasing stars online, is that considered explosive? Aren't you the best at hyping public opinion? Do you need me to teach you? As long as you don't let on that we have obtained the marriage certificate, you can hype up anything else."

Even if Chu Xiu was to be on the hot search, it could only be because of Lu Yuanzhou himself, and it had nothing to do with other men!

Lan Hua: ...

She suddenly felt that becoming a partner of Chuxiu Studio was much more difficult than staying in the old company and fighting internally, because there was also a boss who didn't play by the rules! !

But the matter was done, and it was too late for her to regret now. She could only wipe the cold sweat off her forehead and go ahead with it.

This day was destined to be a lively one on Weibo. Just when netizens were still discussing the issue of actor Gu bringing Chu Xiu to the top of the trending searches, without paying attention, several trending searches about Chu Xiu suddenly rose to the front.

This left netizens confused.

When I clicked on it, I found out that it was a Weibo celebrity who revealed the inside story of how Chu Xiu became the heroine of "The Beauty's Wrath". The content of the revelation was true and false, and it made the netizens who were just watching the show confused.

The general content of the revelation is: A boss named Lu spent a lot of money to buy the copyright of the big IP "Red" because of his star chasing, and then spent hundreds of millions to let the star play the leading role... Finally, the Weibo celebrity concluded that the boss named Lu is definitely the highest level of star chasing!

As soon as this revelation came out, netizens were very excited. This is a good news. Business tycoons spend money to support female stars. Isn't this a definite entertainment industry sponsor? Needless to say, these two people are definitely having an affair. However, I don't seem to have any impression of this Chu Xiu's background. I quickly searched for her.

There is no need for netizens to search, because right after this hot search, there is another hot search about Chu Xiu. This time it is not gossip, but Reuters photos of the crew, and the hot search topic is "Chu Xiu's hand".

This hot search is based on several Reuters photos of Chu Xiu on the set. One of the photos shows Chu Xiu wiping her face, with her fair and slender fingers touching her cheeks, her palm facing outwards, and a red dot right in the center of her palm.

Some netizens left a message asking if it was a specially drawn mole on the palm, as red moles are really rare.

Soon, fans of the original novel came out to explain that the heroine of "Hong Yan Nu" did not have a mole on her palm, and it was probably that the actor originally had it.

So the netizens started discussing the location and color of the red mole.

"No matter what it is, such a white hand, plus this little red mole, it really looks good. Could it be a tattoo? I will get one later!"

"To the above, do you still remember Mr. Lu who was on the hot search last time? Why are you all crowded here to discuss red moles?"

…

There is another hot search about Chu Xiu, that is, the original author of "Hong Yan Nu" came out to say that she did not sell the copyright to the boss surnamed Lu, and she herself visited the crew of "Hong Yan Nu". The role played by Chu Xiu is very close to the original work, making everyone look forward to the broadcast of this drama.

In short, these trending searches came out inexplicably, but they did cause quite a stir and really brought some popularity to Chu Xiu.

This is where Lan Hua’s brilliance lies.

Anyone in the know can tell at a glance that these three trending searches are a perfect one-stop hype.

First, a big V broke the news to attract attention, then they took the opportunity to promote Chu Xiu, and finally, they cleaned up Chu Xiu so that she would not be too affected by the first news. It was simply perfect.

There were constant trending searches on Weibo. Chu Xiu, who was in the crew, would check Weibo when she was not filming, but her agent had already informed her before this, so she was not very nervous.

The most excited person in this incident is Ran Ran. When she has nothing to do, she will check Chu Xiu's Weibo page to see how many fans Chu Xiu has gained. It turns out that the growth trend is quite encouraging.

Lan Hua rushed to the crew in the afternoon. Since it was their first meeting, she brought a gift for Chu Xiu, and Chu Xiu invited her to dinner.

Lan Hua is a straightforward person, with a much more cheerful personality than the former agent Zhao Xue. He smiles very kindly, but his eyes are penetrating, and you can tell at first glance that he is a very wise person.

Lan Hua said, "We are partners in the future, so let's not beat around the bush. Mr. Lu has already told me about your relationship, but I still have to ask you, what is your attitude towards Mr. Lu?"

Chu Xiu: ...

These words don't sound like something a broker would say, but more like something a matchmaker would say!

"Is this important?" Chu Xiu asked her.

Lan Hua said: "Of course it is important. It is related to how we deal with unexpected situations in the future. I need to know your attitude so that I can solve the problem more effectively."

Chu Xiu took a deep breath, lowered her head and fiddled with the food in the bowl, as if she was thinking. Then she looked up and said to Lan Hua, "Actually, I don't know what my attitude is right now." After saying that, she smiled self-deprecatingly.

"My relationship with Lu Yuanzhou is more complicated. At first we just signed an agreement and got a marriage certificate. Now he wants to make it real, but I'm still hesitating."

"Hesitation?" Lan Hua said, "That is to say, you are actually attracted to her, but you don't want to agree to it for the time being?"

"That's about it." Chu Xiu blushed involuntarily.

Lan Hua nodded and said, "I understand. When you are no longer hesitant, remember to tell me."

"OK."

After answering Chu Xiu's question, Lan Hua took the initiative to talk about her own situation. "You should know my situation. It's not complicated. I got divorced 20 years ago and have been single ever since. I live with my son. When I get old, I want to earn more money so that I can retire and enjoy my old age."

Chu Xiu said: "Sister Lan doesn't look old at all."

Lan Hua smiled and said, "I am old enough to be your mother. How can I not be old?"

After talking about their private lives, Lan Hua quickly started talking about work with Chu Xiu.

"Don't worry about the trending search on Weibo today. If anything happens, I can handle it. Don't worry about it. I've seen your previous work. In the past year, your exposure was not high. You played two supporting roles, but the effect was not great. The only thing worth looking forward to is the fairy drama with He Yihuan, but this TV series should not be broadcast until the second half of this year. And the "Red Beauty" you are filming now will not be broadcast until the end of the year at the earliest. In other words, you will have no exposure in the first half of this year."

Chu Xiu said: "My previous agent may not have paid much attention to my work arrangements."

Lan Hua nodded and said, "It's all in the past. Times are different now. You have a strong team and a very wealthy backer behind you. It's hard not to be popular. And I just saw you filming a movie. You have good acting skills and spirituality. You definitely have the potential to be popular."

Chu Xiu said sweetly: "The most important thing is that I met such a great agent like you."

Lan Hua laughed heartily a few times before saying, "Since there are no works coming out, we can only find another way to get through the first half of the year. In fact, the best way to accumulate popularity is to appear on variety shows and reality shows, but reality shows in China are already a bummer and the audience is aesthetically fatigued."

Chu Xiu listened attentively and asked with a smile: "Can I choose the show now?"

Lan Hua blinked, "Of course you can. You have to believe in my ability. If you want to be on a reality show right now, I can find one for you in a minute. But not all variety shows are good. If you don't do well on them, you might even be criticized, and that would be a loss."

Chu Xiu said, "I will listen to Sister Lan."

Lan Hua said: "I have recently been in contact with a CCTV program. CCTV has done a lot of good programs in the past two years. The stage is good and the program has connotation. If you can get one, it will definitely be of great benefit to your reputation."

Chu Xiu's eyes widened. "CCTV? Is that really possible?"

Lan Hua said, "How can I know if I don't try? If my connections are not enough, don't I still have President Lu?"

Chu Xiu: ...

This Sister Lan is really good at utilizing all available resources around her.

"Also, I will ask the crew for two days off at the end of this month. There will be a wild food show where you can be a flying guest. It will only take two days."

Chu Xiu didn't ask any more questions. She agreed to whatever Lan Hua said.

After deciding on the recent work plan, Chu Xiu finally felt at ease. She still liked this busy state. This Lan Hua was indeed amazing. Compared with her, Zhao Xue was at least two or three levels lower.

When I returned to the hotel in the evening, I checked Weibo for a while. The popularity of those trending searches about her had faded a lot. That's how the entertainment industry is. It can be very noisy today, but when you wake up tomorrow, everyone may have forgotten about it. Because there are different gossips every day, netizens are busy eating melons and tend to forget things.

After browsing Weibo, she checked WeChat and found that He Yihuan, who she hadn't contacted for a long time, sent her a WeChat message, asking her with a smile whether today's hot search was bought by Boss Lu, which was really generous.

Chu Xiu did not discuss this topic with her, but asked her if she was still in Nancheng?

The fantasy drama that Chu Xiu and He Yihuan collaborated on was wrapped up before the Spring Festival, and He Yihuan said at the time that she wanted to take a break for a while.

He Yihuan simply replied, "I'm not in South City. I'm on vacation abroad with Mr. Qin recently. But I'll be back soon. My agent has arranged a variety show for me, so I have to go back to record it. What about you? When will it be finished?"

Chu Xiu typed: "It should be another month and a half, but it may be delayed."

"That's how it is in a big crew, just get used to it," said He Yihuan.

The two chatted about a few other things and agreed to meet next time they returned to South City before ending the chat.

Before going to bed, Lu Yuanzhou sent a video call to Chu Xiu. Chu Xiu ran to the mirror to look at herself. After deciding that she did not look too casual, she answered the call.

Ever since Lu Yuanzhou unilaterally announced that he wanted to date her, they had video calls every night without interruption. Chu Xiu felt awkward answering the calls at first, but after a few times, she got used to it. Sometimes when Lu Yuanzhou was busy and called her later, she felt a little uneasy.

Chu Xiu knew that her heart was no longer her own, and she was always thinking about Lu Yuanzhou, but she was just being stubborn and refused to admit it.

It’s not that she didn’t want to admit it, but she still had a knot in her heart and couldn’t completely open her heart to accept him.

On the other side of the video, Lu Yuanzhou was wearing loose home clothes, leaning leisurely on their bed, like a lazy lion.

Ever since Mr. and Mrs. Lu came over, Lu Yuanzhou moved back to the upstairs bedroom to sleep with her, and then refused to leave.

"I bought you so many hot searches today, don't you want to show your appreciation?" he said.

Chu Xiu said: "You didn't inform me before you bought it. I was obviously forced to be on the trending search."

Lu Yuanzhou said: "Why, you don't want to be on the trending search?"

Chu Xiu sighed and said, "Not really, I just think it's unnecessary. Why waste the money?"

Lu Yuanzhou smiled with a smug look on his face, "I am happy to waste my money on you."

Chu Xiu: ...

Lu Yuanzhou stared at her and said, "What's that expression on your face? I have a lot of money, so I can spend as much as I want on my girlfriend. You should be smiling."

Chu Xiu nodded and said, "Yes, yes, it's so happy to be your girlfriend."

Lu Yuanzhou said: "It's a pity that she didn't say anything."

Chu Xiu smiled and blinked. She hooked her finger at the camera and said, "Come closer. Your girlfriend asked me to kiss you on her behalf."

Lu Yuanzhou widened his eyes in disbelief, and then actually moved his face close to the camera.

Chu Xiu held back her laughter and waved loudly at the camera.

Lu Yuanzhou said: "Tell my girlfriend for me, she is so cute."

Chu Xiu answered seriously: "She said she knew."
