Chinese entertainment: Top stars started being pursued by young actresses

Chapter 186, page 185: Jingyi's "Flash Star" wraps up filming; Wang Churan talks in her sleep in the middle of the night.

"President Lin went out of his way to sign us, and we can't let him down."

Liu Yuxin, like a team leader, encouraged the remaining two trainees.

"They've given us a great platform, so we certainly can't let this opportunity slip away. There are still a few months until the recording of 'Youth With You Season 2,' so there's plenty of time."

"Hmm." That's just how Kong Xueer is; after being down for a while, she can immediately cheer up after being encouraged by Liu Yuxin.

Jin Zihan kept his head down; it seemed that his inherent personality couldn't be changed too quickly.

Upon seeing this, Kong Xueer immediately rushed over and hugged her tightly: "Hey, Xiao Jin, cheer up! It's not like we're going to have a competition next month. Let's practice slowly."

Liu Yuxin also went over, but she chose to sit quietly to the side.

After Jin Zihan had been comforted by Kong Xueer, he stood up and said, "Alright, practice!"

……

……

Time flew by and it was almost the end of June. Filming for "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" was also coming to an end.

Zhang Jingyi cried her eyes out on the night filming wrapped.

She really can't forget the role of Lin Beixing.

She was captivated by the female character's story from the very beginning.

Most importantly, she's Lin Shaobai's female lead! How could anyone forget a drama where she falls in love with Lin Shaobai?!

In just two short months, Zhang Jingyi became deeply immersed in the role of Lin Beixing and felt Zhang Wansen's love for Lin Beixing.

"How can it be over so suddenly? I haven't even..."

Zhang Jingyi's shoulders trembled slightly as she cried. She rubbed her red eyes, tears dripping onto her index finger.

The staff quickly gathered around her and presented her with a wrap-up cake.

"Congratulations to Jingyi on wrapping up filming!"

"Yes. Thank you everyone! Thank you all for your continued help and encouragement. Most importantly, thank you..."

Zhang Jingyi turned around and hugged Lin Shaobai while crying.

Her hug was so sudden that Lin Shaobai didn't even have time to react.

The staff at the scene didn't think much of it.

It's not a bad thing to give someone a hug at such a touching moment, right?
After a few seconds of stunned silence, Lin Shaobai gently patted Zhang Jingyi's back.

"Okay, okay, stop crying. What if you cry yourself to death?"

"Woo..."

Zhang Jingyi wondered if Lin Shaobai was going to make jokes and cheer people up at a time like this.

"I didn't cry my eyes out."

"Isn't this because we're afraid you'll cry yourself to sleep? You might suddenly faint and lie sprawled on the ground, and if that's filmed, it'll definitely make headlines."

"Say whatever you want, I won't get angry no matter what you say now."

Zhang Jingyi was still rubbing her eyes, and said softly.

I'm so reluctant to part with it.

The atmosphere on the set of Shining Star was wonderful, so wonderful that she didn't want to leave.

But eventually, there will be a time for parting.

Zhang Jingyi turned and said a few words to the director, then ran to hug the makeup artist.

These makeup artists were exceptionally gentle and patient with her.

Previously, when she was in a bad mood, these young ladies would comfort her and do her makeup to fill the void in her appearance.

Zhang Jingyi had a deep affection for the film crew, and she couldn't stop crying even after leaving the set.

A gentle evening breeze was blowing, and she stood alone at the door, unwilling to leave.

A moment later, Lin Shaobai's new assistant, Xiao Zhao, ran over.

She held a bouquet of flowers in her left hand and a large gift bag containing snacks and drinks in her right.

Zhang Jingyi was a little confused. She opened her eyes wide and said slowly, "You're Lin Shaobai's new assistant, right?"

"Yes. My surname is Zhao, you can just call me Xiao Zhao. I'm here to deliver something to you on orders from our boss, Mr. Lin."

"Ok?"

Zhang Jingyi understood when she saw the gift bag of flowers and snacks.

"What about the others?"

"He had something to do with the director and couldn't come, so he sent me instead."

"Oh."

"Take the flowers first."

"Ah."

Zhang Jingyi lowered her head in disappointment.

If only Lin Shaobai could come and see her off.

Zhang Jingyi thought to herself.

She lowered her head and blinked, and accidentally discovered the necklace hidden in the flowers.

At first, she thought she was seeing things, but when she got closer, she realized that the shimmering object was indeed an exquisite necklace.

Zhang Jingyi took the necklace out of the flower, and the cool touch made her heart burn even hotter.

"Did he give this to me?"

"Could it be that I gave it to you?"

Assistant Xiao Zhao said helplessly.

Why ask something you already know the answer to?

Zhang Jingyi was overjoyed to see the necklace; Lin Shaobai, as always, loved to create these little surprises.

"Maybe my choice was right."

Zhang Jingyi muttered.

"What? What did you say?"

"fine."

As a newcomer to the company, Assistant Xiao Zhao naturally didn't understand why actor Zhang would say such a thing.

As Lin Shaobai's personal assistant, all she needed to do was carry out the tasks Lin Shaobai assigned her.

There's no need to meddle in other things.

"In short, our CEO Lin asked me to come and deliver flowers and this snack gift pack to you. I only just found out about the necklace. Also, he asked me to give you a message."

"What?"

"Yes, happy wrap-up."

After finishing speaking, Assistant Xiao Zhao smiled slightly and then quickly left the scene to go to Lin Shaobai's side.

Zhang Jingyi stared at the female assistant until she completely disappeared from her sight before looking down at the flowers in her arms.

I was quite sad just now, but I immediately cheered up after receiving these.

After finishing filming, Lin Shaobai immediately returned to his company to participate in the production of his new album and record the new song "Alaska Bay".

This song was also very popular when it was first released.

It quickly garnered over 800 million views on short video platforms, demonstrating its immense popularity and influence.

This song doesn't have any sudden high notes; it tells the story of emotions gently, like a breeze.

"Oh God!"

"Can't you see how much I love her?"

"How can two people who clearly love each other..."

"You're going to break them up!"

……

"You must take good care of her from now on."

You can't bully her when I'm not there for her.

……

Kong Xueer and Liu Yuxin came to visit, and the two sat on the sofa outside.

Jin Zihan, who was not good at either vocal or dance, practiced alone in the practice room.

After listening to Lin Shaobai's singing, Kong Xueer stared wide-eyed at Liu Yuxin sitting next to her.

Liu Yuxin turned to look at her good teammate, with only one line in her mind.

[Eyes wide open like saucers!]

"Hey, Sheryl, what are you doing with your eyes so wide open?"

"It sounds so good." "Huh?"

"It's so beautiful! Our CEO Lin sings so well. I'm going to become her number one fangirl!"

Kong Xueer looked like a little girl.

Liu Yuxin said honestly, "You shouldn't be considered the number one fan. President Lin became famous back in 2017."

"You just don't understand, do you? We're in the company, so this is called having all the advantages. Sigh, I admire President Lin the most. How can he write such a good piece of work while filming?"

Kong Xueer rested her face on her hand and stared longingly ahead.

Since joining the girl group, she has practiced singing and dancing together, but she doesn't seem to have much talent for singing.

Even after practicing for so many years, my singing is still not very good.

Fortunately, my dancing skills have improved significantly.

So she has always envied people who are good at singing.

"Alaska Bay, Rainheart, do you know what kind of place this is?"

"Scenic spot. This sea will always exist in two colors, so I was wondering if our CEO Lin was inspired by this to write a song? Comparing this sea to love, even with so many obstacles, even knowing it's not right, but still choosing to be together without hesitation."

While Liu Yuxin was talking, Kong Xueer took the opportunity to use her phone to search for tourist attractions on Baidu.

The seawater really does have two different colors...

"Our CEO Lin can write songs just by looking at this bay."

"But today we should focus more on how Mr. Lin can sing so well."

"Alright, Yuxin. No matter how hard we try, we'll never be as good as President Lin."

"Have confidence."

"Hey Lao Liu, you always have the same way of talking."

“…Hey! Mr. Lin.”

Liu Yuxin had no temper with her old teammate Kong Xueer. When she turned around and saw Lin Shaobai coming out of the recording studio, she quickly stood up, as if she were standing at attention.

Lin Shaobai was also a little confused. He shouldn't have been conducting "military-style training" in the company, right?

Liu Yuxin realized that she was sitting too upright and quickly relaxed.

"Mr. Lin, Xue'er and I came to see what you said."

She explained, sounding slightly nervous.

Kong Xueer leaned closer with a smile and said, "President Lin, this song is so beautiful! Is it one of your upcoming releases?"

"It's going to be included in the album."

Currently, Lin Shaobai has completed recording four songs: "If I Could," "So Many People in This World," "I Want to See You, I Want to See You, I Want to See You," and "Alaska Bay."
The progress is going well; I definitely want to finish and release this album this year.

Liu Yuxin, standing to the side, was extremely envious.

Her former group, Lady Bees, also released an album.

But even if a band is a flop, their albums will still be flops, and not many people will know about them.

Lin Shaobai's previous single broke a Guinness World Record, which was enough to shock the entire Chinese entertainment industry.

Whenever Liu Yuxin heard these things, all she could see was envy.

"By the way, Mr. Lin, your new drama has wrapped up filming. Shouldn't you take a break for a while?"

She turned her head and asked.

"I won't be able to rest for long, the movie will start filming soon. So I'll make the most of these few days to record songs and take care of things at the company."

"Oh...about company matters?"

Liu Yuxin suddenly realized something.

"Yes, it's your matter that needs to be dealt with."

Lin Shaobai pointed at Kong Xueer: "During the days I wasn't at the company, did you practice your vocals properly?"

"Forehead……"

Kong Xueer had actually practiced diligently, but when Lin Shaobai pointed at her like that, she was so nervous that she didn't know what to say.

My mouth was stuck for a while, so I could only take a step back.

"President Lin, don't worry, I've kept everything you said in mind. Ever since the second assessment, I've been working hard on my vocal training. I learn to sing and practice breath control with my teacher every day. I'm striving to reach President Lin's level as soon as possible!"

For some reason, Kong Xueer started rambling on and on.

Lin Shaobai: "Catch up with me?"

Kong Xueer knew perfectly well that she had said something unrealistic, but she still nodded solemnly: "President Lin is my idol and my goal. Moving towards that goal is what I need to do!"

Lin Shaobai burst out laughing when he saw how serious she was.

"It seems you've spent quite a bit of time with Liu Yuxin; even your speech sounds a bit like hers."

"..."

Liu Yuxin and Kong Xueer exchanged a smile.

"Ding"

"Ding"

"Ding"

Lin Shaobai's phone kept ringing, so Kong Xueer and Liu Yuxin stared at the location from which the phone was ringing.

"Mr. Lin, your phone..."

"I understand, you can go ahead and get back to work."

Lin Shaobai knew who it was without even looking.

There is only one person who can send messages so frequently.

Wang Churan!
This woman sends messages frequently, like a chatterbox.

Lin Shaobai returned to his office and opened his chat with Wang Churan.

[Kobayashi, is there a chance to meet Kobayashi?]

I heard your TV series has finished filming. Let's meet before filming starts.

Why aren't you replying? You haven't replied for a minute. Oh, no, to be precise, it's been 1 minute and 35 seconds.

Don't you love me anymore? No, you can't stop loving me!

Lin Shaobai shook his head helplessly.

This woman's words flowed like a river, never ceasing.

After carefully reading through Wang Churan's 52 messages, Lin Shaobai replied to her, "Okay."

Just those two words garnered over 30 replies.

Originally, her talkative nature was only apparent when she was awake, but I didn't expect her to talk in her sleep like that too.

This time, when the two were together that night, Lin Shaobai noticed that she was talking a lot in her sleep.

"I ate bread this morning, and it was so awful! Why is there such a terrible bread?"

"If it's bread, high-calorie food shouldn't be made so unpalatable. I might as well eat a low-fat meal."

"Speaking of which, Li Muzi is really pitiful. Why did she believe He Fei? He Fei is a gambler. Even if it's not a big deal, doesn't she know that if he's a gambler?"

"I was video chatting with a friend the other day, and when they turned on the beauty filter, I felt like I turned into a snake spirit..."

Both her career and daily life would appear in Wang Churan's sleep talking.

Lin Shaobai, who was lying next to her, was abruptly woken up by her noise.

Lin Shaobai rested his head on his hand and quietly looked at Wang Churan.

"This guy never talks in his sleep before, what's gotten into him today?"

"The chatterbox is talking in his sleep..."

Wang Churan woke herself up because she was talking so fast.

When she opened her eyes, she found Lin Shaobai propping his head up and staring at her.

The two of them just looked at each other, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

A few seconds later, Wang Churan suddenly turned around dramatically, pulled the blanket up a bit, and said shyly, "We're not going to do it again, are we?"

"Ah."

"It really is?!"

Wang Churan quickly turned around, her face flushed: "So that's what you were thinking, staying up all night!"

"And one more thing."

"what?"

"Why can you talk so fluently in your sleep? I don't think you should be an actor."

"Then what should you become? A goddess?"

"...to become a talk show host."

Sorry, I've been having some writer's block lately. ^=_=^
