Chapter 5 Green Pepper Video



In the video, the clean and beautiful boy sometimes laughs, sometimes gets annoyed, and sometimes runs on the grass with the domineering female president on his back...

I am a serious person: facing such a wonderful brother, I can do it! I really can!

Pear on the Apple Tree: I used to not understand why the domineering male CEOs in novels always liked the tough little white flowers. After watching this video, I just hate that I am not a domineering CEO.

Baby Bear: I don't have much to say, I just want to say ahhhhh!

There are no fruits on the plum tree: You superficial women only know how to look at faces. This fairy disdains to associate with you. Doesn't anyone see that the handsome boy has great acting skills? She turned around and smiled under the green shade, with a look of pure ignorance. This look reminded me of the school hunk in white whom I once had a crush on. And the sight of him holding a steamed bun and eating it desperately on the roadside made me feel heartbroken. I wanted to take out my bank card on the spot and say to him, "son, mom will buy you whatever you want to eat. I will sell everything I have to buy it for you. Don't starve yourself."

Seeing two cents on the street: I have money, I will support you!

Ever since "The Domineering Female CEO" came online, Song Yu has been holding his phone to refresh the data. In the first few hours, there were almost no clicks and comments, until the second half of the night, when the number of viewers gradually increased.

Song Yu watched the video commentary section gradually becoming lively, and was so excited that he almost fell asleep. He seemed to see a future with countless endorsements and explosive popularity.

But gradually, he discovered something was wrong.

In his dream, on the day the drama was released, a well-known blogger took to Weibo to praise the second male lead played by Li Zhao, saying that he was so handsome and heart-moving, which attracted countless passers-by and netizens to watch the role played by Li Zhao, and recently the drama has gradually become popular.

Why is it that no one is praising how good he is at playing the second male lead, but instead many people say that the male lead is pitiful?

Song Yu waited and waited, and finally saw a comment related to herself.

[The second male lead is so pretentious, he thinks he can snatch the girlfriend from the male lead just because he has money. Don’t you think that the heroine is not short of money, why doesn’t she find a boyfriend who suits her heart? 】

Song Yu:? ? ? ?

Didn’t the audience say this in that precognitive dream? They scolded the male protagonist he played for being stubborn, hypocritical, inflexible, and an annoying white lotus.

The plot is still the same, even the female lead has not changed, so why is the direction of events completely different from what happened in the dream? Shouldn't someone come and praise him for being handsome, rich, and gentle at this moment? Isn't it a pity that the heroine is blind?

[Ladies who said earlier that the second male lead is pretentious, don’t leave. Great minds think alike. My little beauty is so nice, and he actually dares to mock him. Where is the female boss? Your boyfriend is being bullied, why don’t you come to help! 】

[Wow, wow, wow, I’m crying so loudly. Why doesn’t such a nice little cutie belong to me? Why am I not a domineering president? 】

[My heart is broken when I see the little cutie being bullied by a pretentious guy. Come to your mother’s arms, baby! 】

A show-off?

Song Yu opened her eyes wide, foreknowing that in her dream, the audience had clearly praised the second male lead played by Li Zhao for being handsome and elegant, like a little prince who walked out of a dream!

They are both playing the same second male lead, so why are these people discriminating against each other? !

In just two days, "The Boss" suddenly became a hot topic online, and the number of clicks increased rapidly, which made the broadcasting platform overjoyed. They bought the broadcasting rights at a low price and did not expect to reap such a huge reward.

Upon seeing this, the publicity department of the broadcasting platform quickly cooperated to promote the drama online, and colleagues across the department seemed to see the dawn of achieving the KPI task goals.

The plot of "The Boss" goes against traditional routines, just like the mainstream CEO dramas where the male and female protagonists took the wrong scripts from each other, but it unexpectedly suits the appetite of female audiences. The rich, handsome and calculating female protagonist and the handsome, cute, sunny and gentle male protagonist, they should not have had any intersection, but they met and fell in love.

Netizens were watching the drama with a smile on their faces the whole time, and just when they were enjoying it, they discovered that it was gone. In order to watch four more episodes than ordinary viewers, many people had to recharge their membership of Qingjiao Video. After watching the show, they went to the official Weibo of Qingjiao Video to ask when the new plot would be updated.

Seeing that netizens were paying more and more attention to "The Boss Girl", Qingjiao Video decided to hold a meet-and-greet session with the leading actors. However, they soon discovered that the leading male actor did not have a Weibo account or a public relations team, and even the agency he had worked for had closed down a few months ago.

The publicity team of Green Pepper had to contact the crew and after a lot of effort, they finally got the phone number of the male lead’s agent.

"Brother Xiaoyuan, do you really want to open a store here?" Li Zhao looked at the gray store and felt that it didn't look like it would make money. This is a university town, the shop rents are extremely high, there are all kinds of shops on the entire street, and the competition is fierce.

"I'll open the shop and you'll be a waiter. You can read books in your free time." Zhang Xiaoyuan paused and said, "Zhu Xia's health is gradually recovering, and the agency contract you signed with the company is no longer valid. You have no popularity and no connections, so it's not easy for you to continue to mix in the entertainment industry. Don't go out to work in the next few months. Stay in the shop and study hard. Wait until next June to take the college entrance examination again."

Li Zhao did not pick up the topic of taking the college entrance examination, but just said: "Brother Xiaoyuan, I'm just worried that you will lose money in opening a store, and then you will even lose your wife."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: “…”

He suddenly remembered that he was already 32 years old and not only did he not have a wife, he didn't even have a girlfriend.

"Why are you bringing up such a topic? Believe it or not, I'll slap you..." Zhang Xiaoyuan was just about to slap Li Zhao when his cell phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID. Why would a staff member from the production crew of "The Boss Girl" call him? Could it be that there was a new role for Zhao Zhao?

As soon as the call was connected, Zhang Xiaoyuan heard the other party's excited voice.

"What?" Zhang Xiaoyuan was stunned for a long time. After hanging up the phone, he looked at Li Zhao blankly: "Zhao, is today April 1st?"

"Wake up, it's winter now." Li Zhao saw that Zhang Xiaoyuan looked a little strange: "What's wrong?"

"Qingjiao Video wants to invite you to participate in the most popular self-made talk show on their platform. There is an appearance fee. Do you want to go?" Zhang Xiaoyuan vaguely remembered that the other party also said that the drama was popular, and he couldn't help laughing. For a poor crew from the director to the actors, the standard of popularity may not be too high.

Although they don't plan to stay in the entertainment industry in the future, they still want to earn some appearance fees.

On the way to Qingjiao Video, Li Zhao felt sorry for the shirt and shoes worth four figures, so he called an online car-hailing service.

When the car arrived, the driver kept apologizing to Li Zhao. It turned out that there was a child of two or three years old in the car. Because the child was asleep and there was no one to take care of him, she had to take the child out to make money.

"It's okay." Li Zhao looked at the sleeping child tenderly and said, "I'll just sit in the passenger seat."

"Thank you, thank you." The driver thanked Li Zhao several times before starting the car and heading towards the destination.

"The heater in the car is quite strong. Should we take off the child's coat?" Li Zhao noticed that the child's cheeks were a little red, and whispered, "Or, we can turn down the temperature a bit."

The driver stopped the car to the side of the road, gently took off the child's coat, and then gently placed it on the child's belly.

"Sorry to have delayed you." The driver started the car again. She looked very young, but a little tired.

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry." Li Zhao smiled and said, "You are a good mother."

"What's good or bad about it? She's the flesh and blood of my belly. Her father doesn't want her, but I can't help but love her." The driver grinned. Her smile wasn't pretty, but her eyes were gentle. "I can't bear to think about her waking up and crying because she's scared and can't be found. But raising a child costs money, so I have to make money while keeping her by my side. When she goes to kindergarten, it will be much more convenient for me."

Li Zhao listened to the driver's confession with a gentle smile on his face.

After getting off the car, Li Zhao gave the driver a five-star rating. As soon as he entered the Qingjiao Video office building, a staff member greeted him warmly: "Teacher Li, welcome. I am a staff member of the Qingjiao Entertainment program team. You can just call me Xiao Wang."

"Hello, Brother Wang." Li Zhao took off his thick coat, revealing a well-tailored white shirt.

Brother Wang led Li Zhao upstairs. As soon as they walked out of the elevator, internal staff came over to take pictures. Brother Wang smiled at Li Zhao and said, "Mr. Li's performance as Bai Xiaodu was so successful. Many colleagues in the company like this role very much, so they were a little excited to see you appear."

"Brother Wang, you're too kind." Li Zhao secretly sighed in his heart that the people in big companies are really good at their work and even give enough face to an unknown and transparent artist like him.

When they arrived at the lounge, a makeup artist came over and did simple makeup on Li Zhao. A staff member also brought a stack of stills and asked Li Zhao to sign them.

When Song Yu stepped into the lounge, he saw several staff members from Qingjiao Video surrounding Li Zhao for a photo. His expression changed and he forced a smile: "Li Zhao, you came early."

"Hello, Brother Song." Seeing Song Yu reminded him of countless delicious midnight snacks, and Li Zhao's smile was particularly enthusiastic.

Song Yu hummed with a forced smile. When he saw Li Zhao, he remembered the comments that called him a snob, and he couldn't help feeling a little upset.

If he had known that precognitive dreams were so unreliable, he should not have let Li Zhao play the leading male role. All the popularity was taken by him.

Soon the female lead also arrived. After not seeing each other for a long time, she seemed particularly happy to see Li Zhao and even gave Li Zhao a gift.

Song Yu rolled her eyes in the corner. Normally on the crew, this woman had never even looked at Li Zhao straight in the eye. But now that she saw that Li Zhao had become popular online, she was trying to get close to him.

I wonder if they are planning to hype up the topic of the male and female protagonists being good friends, or hyping up the ambiguous relationship between the male and female protagonists?

"Green Pepper Entertainment" is an online entertainment program. The content of the program is relatively light-hearted and the topics are more in line with the interests of young netizens today. So not long after the interview program started, the host directly talked about hot topics.

"Zhao Zhao, after this drama was broadcast on our platform, it was loved by many viewers. In just a few days, the number of clicks increased exponentially. Many viewers said they wanted to become a domineering CEO to love you. What do you think about this?"

Facing the gentle and sweet smile of the host, Li Zhao answered honestly: "I think... it doesn't matter whether I am a boss or not. What matters is that we have a spiritual connection. Besides, I am an easy person to feed. Just make sure I am well fed."

The female host looked at Li Zhao's wet eyes and her smile softened: "It seems that our Zhao Zhao is a foodie."

Li Zhao suddenly remembered that Zhang Xiaoyuan had reminded him not to let outsiders know that he could eat, so he quickly saved his image as a fairy boy: "That's not the case. What I mean is that as long as there is love, nothing else matters."

"So that's how it is." The host laughed, "Take a closer look at your figure, Zhao Zhao. You really don't look like someone who can eat a lot."

The female lead and Song Yu turned to look at Li Zhao, and then fell silent.

Song Yu felt a little suffocated when he thought about how Li Zhao ate so many midnight snacks and chocolates from him but didn't gain any weight at all.

"Although Song Yu and Zhao Zhao are love rivals in the drama, what do you think of him outside the drama?" There were many comments online scolding the second male lead for being a snob, so the female host brought up the topic.

"Brother Song?" Li Zhao smiled sincerely, "Brother Song is a good man and took good care of me on the set."

Song Yu: “…”

I don't want such a good guy card.

Actress: “…”

Everyone in the group knew that Song Yu didn't like Li Zhao, except Li Zhao himself.

The interview continued for another half an hour. On the surface, the three main actors performed for about the same amount of time, but Song Yu clearly felt that the host was more biased towards Li Zhao.

Praising the powerful and bullying the weak, is it a big deal to be famous?

"We still have half an hour of live broadcast to go. Please take a break, teachers. We will start the live broadcast in ten minutes, okay?" The female host looked at the popularity online. The live broadcast has not started yet, but many netizens are already waiting in the live broadcast room.

In the entertainment industry, a dark horse becomes popular every few years, but no one can predict how long these dark horses will remain popular.

Wang Xiaohong carried the sleeping child to the bed, then dragged her tired body to the bathroom, walked to the toilet and took out her cell phone. A push message from a video platform popped up on the phone, and it seemed that some celebrities were live streaming.

She clicked on it casually and found a familiar-looking figure on the screen.

Isn't this the gentle and considerate young man who just rode in her car? ! Is he actually a star?

I didn’t expect that celebrities also take online ride-hailing cars when traveling, and they don’t have assistants or helpers as others say. How simple and down-to-earth they are.

The author has something to say: Li Zhao: It doesn’t matter whether I’m down to earth or not, what matters is that I’m poor.
