The career system at Huayu Entertainment is too gentlemanly.

The morning sunlight was a bit too bright.

Chen Yan got out of bed and rubbed his eyes.

Looking at the bedroom, he realized that he no longer lived in the dormitory.

He yawned, got up, and went to the kitchen to make himself a cup of coffee.

After finishing his coffee, Chen Yan changed his clothes and went downstairs for a run.

The neighborhood was very quiet, and you could occasionally see a few foreigners with cameras.

Chen Yan heard from the real estate agent that many foreign journalists covering the Olympics were renting houses here.

This is also the reason for the surge in rental prices in the neighborhood.

Half an hour later, Chen Yan returned home and took a shower.

It was already 7:30.

Chen Yan hummed a song as she made herself breakfast.

Fried egg, toast, milk, and an apple.

After breakfast, Chen Yan went to school.

At 8:10, Chen Yan appeared in the classroom.

As expected, the students in the class had not yet arrived.

Class doesn't start until 8:30.

Chen Yan casually sat down and started playing on his phone, browsing the news.

Soon, several news reports caught his attention.

[Japanese TV reports on the Prince of Tennis fan sports meet; Chen Yan is very popular!]

[The Prince of Tennis series is generating buzz even before its premiere; Japanese media praises lead actor Chen Yan for perfectly capturing the essence of Ryoma!]

Chen Yan couldn't help but let out an "oh".

I never expected to appear on Japanese television.

He immediately clicked on the news to find out the details.

It was 7 p.m. last night.

Japan's NHK News reported:

With the Beijing Olympics just around the corner, the youth-oriented, passionate sports manga "King of the Web" has gained a large following in China.

Japanese anime is influencing the world!

The actor who played Ryoma Echizen in the live-action Prince of Tennis adaptation perfectly recreates his character...

Chen Yan frowned slightly; the domestic news reports weren't very clear.

He didn't know exactly how the Japanese media praised him.

Japanese media tend to exaggerate, giving Chen Yan a very high evaluation.

However, many Japanese netizens were not convinced.

"The Imperial Dragon? This Chinese man doesn't resemble Ryoma at all!"

"Longma isn't that tall; Chinese TV dramas are devastating adaptations!"

"The Prince of Tennis shouldn't have a live-action adaptation by Chinese people!"

"This is a good thing; the influence of anime is growing!"

"I really want to see a Chinese version of Prince of Tennis; the male lead is so handsome!"

"Ryoma is short and not as handsome as the other guy!"

"This Chinese actor is so handsome!"

"Although their ages and heights don't match, the Chinese actors' expressions are very accurate!"

"The Chinese version of Ryoma is the grown-up version, and it's a very accurate recreation!"

After Chen Yan was reported by Japanese media, he quickly attracted the attention of fans of the Prince of Tennis manga.

However, opinions on him are mixed.

The boys were generally dissatisfied, while many girls liked Chen Yan.

Japanese girls really like handsome guys.

Many Japanese girls are fans of Korean boy groups.

There's nothing we can do about it.

It's been a long time since Japan's entertainment industry has produced any handsome men.

The only one I can really boast about is Shun Oguri.

Shun Oguri is handsome and roguish, and Chen Yan's cosplay of Ryoma has the same style.

It's perfectly normal for Chen Yan to be liked by Japanese girls!

However, Chen Yan was unaware of all this.

He is paying close attention in class right now!

There are many things Chen Yan doesn't know.

The Prince of Tennis became a huge hit in the country after being promoted through a fan sports event.

Many television stations have already placed orders for the program.

The Prince of Tennis has now become one of the most anticipated TV dramas.

The producer of The Prince of Tennis was ecstatic.

We made money!

Chen Yan is truly a lucky star!

Comparable to the Demon King's single-handed protection, specializing in attacking the Dark Room Bureau!

Many people in the tennis community are paying attention to the situation of The Prince of Tennis.

Many people can't understand one thing.

The real focus of The Prince of Tennis is on good men.

Why is Chen Yan the only one featured in the promotional materials?

Dongzhixing Agent: Don't ask, the answer is that the incompetent husband is too spineless!

On Hunan TV, Yao Jia was very envious when she saw the popularity of "The Prince of Tennis" soaring.

We need to start planning our trip to see the meteor shower as soon as possible!

Yao Jia and Xia Qing went directly to the station's leaders to apply for an official start to watching the meteor shower together.

Ouyang Yang looked at them and couldn't help but frown.

"Ugly Betty is the focus this year, and the station doesn't have that much energy for it."

Yao Jia immediately said, "The broadcast time of 'Ugly Betty' will clash with 'The Prince of Tennis,' so its ratings will definitely be suppressed!"

Xia Qing then added, "Dragon TV is currently receiving a lot of attention; we can't just sit here and wait to die."

After a moment's thought, Director Ouyang said, "Didn't you see the film and say the quality was very poor?"

Yao Jia immediately explained, "But Chen Yan is very popular, and with the popularity of the 'Good Man' contestants, the ratings for 'The Prince of Tennis' won't be low!"

"Chen Yan..."

After thinking for a while, President Ouyang said, "I've also seen his news; he's indeed very popular right now."

Xia Qing said with a smile, "Idol culture has become popular in China, making it difficult for traditional TV dramas to attract viewers."

"Okay, I agree. You can go ahead and do it."

Upon hearing the station director's support, Yao Jia's eyes lit up, and she tentatively spoke up.

"Director, could we... increase the budget?"

Ouyang Yangzhang flipped open the budget sheet for watching the meteor shower together.

A budget of less than ten million is indeed a bit low.

"I'll add another five million!"

Yao Jia was overjoyed and quickly expressed her gratitude: "Thank you, Director!"

Ouyang Yangzhang laughed and said, "Go ahead, make a scene, and divert the attention from Dragon TV."

"Mission accomplished!"

Yao Jia rubbed her hands together excitedly.

Let's cause trouble!

Blitzkrieg against the Oriental Pearl Tower!

The capital city, the training ground for the Red Mansion.

Li Shaohong rubbed his temples as he looked at the many child actors being considered.

Filming for Dream of the Red Chamber will begin next month.

There are still many supporting roles that haven't been cast.

Li Shaohong also wanted to delay further, but the investors kept putting pressure on him.

Every day of delay results in a significant waste of money.

Li Shaohong is under a lot of pressure right now.

She had only been in charge of the production team for six months.

With so many characters in Dream of the Red Chamber, casting is no simple task.

However, Li Shaohong is now prepared to give up.

Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up my ass!

Watch me do something dirty for you!

Just pick randomly!

Anyway, she wasn't the one who lost money.

Looking at the young actors, Li Shaohong no longer hesitated.

They directly decided on the young Bao, Dai, and Chai.

She didn't waste any time casting the remaining twelve beauties.

After discussing with the directing team, the cast list was quickly finalized.

The training ground is located on the first basement level.

Yang Mi and Kan Qingzi have already received the casting list.

Yang Mi was not surprised at all.

It really is Qingwen!

Kan Qingzi was pleasantly surprised; she had been selected!

They really got elected!

Although she was just a maid, she had a lot of screen time!

awesome!

The two were in different moods, but at the same time they were thinking of the same person.

You stinky junior!

The perverted class monitor!

The production team has already declared you the best choice for the role of Jia Baoyu, so what are you still being coy about!

Hurry back to the film set!

Yang Mi and Kan Qingzi both know that Chen Yan is very popular recently.

It's on the news every day.

A sense of unease suddenly arose in their hearts.

Is it possible that Chen Yan no longer wants to play Jia Baoyu after becoming famous?

The two of them sighed, resting their chins on their hands.

I wonder what that stinky junior/perverted class monitor is doing now.

I'll go see him after training camp ends tomorrow!

Yang Mi pondered what excuse she should use to find Chen Yan.

If you're deliberately looking for trouble.

Will Chen Yan become enraged and continue to threaten her?

Yang Mi felt a little excited and expectant!

You stinky junior!

Just wait until your senior crushes you!

Kan Qingzi gave Yang Mi a strange look.

Why did my senior suddenly get so fired up?

Are you excited to play a maid?

You crazy class monitor, can't you learn from your senior classmates?

Your senior was so happy playing a maid, but you're not willing to play Jia Yu!

Hmph, wait till I get back to school and I'll correct your wrong ideas!
