At 18, Song Jianchu was diagnosed with a terminal illness and his billions of inheritance had no heir. Not wanting to leave the world so soon, he found the star he had been chasing after all his life and spoke arrogantly, “One billion per day, date me.”... more>>

The whole internet knew that the music industry’s top idol, Mu Ye, had a rich and flashy fanboy, and no one thought that the black-and-red demon king could successfully pursue a star. Until a video went viral all over the internet. In the video, the guy’s expression was cold and arrogant as he leaned against his luxury car and stuffed a black card into the man’s clothes, who then smiled and kissed him on the face.

Netizens climbed over each other to comment: “Wow, the demon king is amazing!!”

Mu Ye found a quirky and wealthy sugar daddy, who shamelessly showed off his body to him and catered to all of his tastes. He had originally intended to play video games with the kid, but ended up with a perfect boyfriend. Mu Ye fell deeply in love and was about to propose at his concert, when his boyfriend suddenly made it to the hot search list.

He was suddenly pulled into a group chat, where the top celebrities were discussing, with sadness, how to give their dying sugar daddy a grand funeral and compete for the C-spot to grab his last photo.

Mu Ye: …

After fulfilling all of his wishes, Song Jianchu signed the asset transfer agreement and was sketching out the guest list for the funeral of all the top stars on his couch, when he was suddenly picked up and put in an ambulance.

“Don’t be afraid, I’ve brought the best doctors for you.”

“?”

In his boyfriend’s gentle expression, there was a hint of coldness. “Baby, I never said we were breaking up. You’re not allowed to die early.”

Bai Zhou: Thanks for the invitation. My secret marriage partner went abroad for two years. On the night of his return, I mistook my husband for a thief who broke into a house.

*

Bai Zhou, a minor celebrity in the entertainment industry.

His secret marriage partner was Sheng Siyu, the vice president of Shengshi Group.

As soon as they received the marriage certificate, Sheng Siyu left the country.

This made Bai Zhou very happy.

Having a husband who was willing to spend money on him and still gave him freedom was simply too blissful!

With the money Sheng Siyu gave him, he bought various luxury goods and visited various high-end clubs.

One day, Bai Zhou took his friends home drunk.

Seeing a strange man sitting on the sofa, Bai Zhou asked, "Who is he?"

The friend answered, "He seems to be your husband..."

*

After unexpectedly becoming popular, Bai Zhou attended an event where some reporters noticed he was wearing a diamond ring on his ring finger.

Bai Zhoudid not respond in front of the media due to the hidden marriage agreement

#EntertainmentCircle's first unsolved mystery: Who is Bai Zhou's husband?#

This topic occasionally exploded on Weibo.

Fans of Bai Zhou's rivals came out to criticize him.

[Got married and denied it to death? Laughable.]

[Was it possible that the husband was an ugly old man over fifty? So he was ashamed to admit it?]

Sheng Siyu, who took over as president of Shengshi Group, responded below: [?]

The next second, Sheng Siyu’s Weibo account was trending.

In the large picture, two pairs of beautiful hands were intertwined, and on the dominating hand's ring finger, there was a ring identical to Bai Zhou's.

The comment section went crazy.

[Wow! Looking at this picture, I could imagine a fantastic romance novel.]

[Was the background on the sofa? Ah!! Sisters, give me some oxygen!]

[Just based on these two hands, I was willing to relocate the Civil Affairs Bureau!]

Sheng Siyu replied, [No need, we've been married for three years.]

"The whole story is set in an ideal world for fans chasing stars."

"The main storyline is about a company's growth and expansion through idol group management."

"The protagonist of this story is only the female lead, **while the supporting roles' storylines all serve the protagonist's growth.**"

Jiang Juyou, who graduated from a second-tier university, was on the verge of giving up after having a breakdown from her internship. Suddenly she saw a job posting:

"Looking for interns, 9 to 5, weekends off, social insurances and housing fund provided after being converted to formal employee, internship certificate provided, monthly intern salary 8500, food and housing included, formal salary negotiable, requirement: strong stress resistance."

It's a perfect trap for college students.

Worried that it might be a scam but still went anyway. After arriving, she -

"Ding-"

"Welcome to the Entertainment Company Operations Manual!"

Got bound to a system.

"What the hell?"

Bound to the system, Jiang Juyou was forced to become an entertainment company boss, and so she became someone she hated but also wanted to be - the rich.

[I'm crying but I'm pretending I'm not.jpg]

Jiang Juyou's company became a wind vane in the entertainment industry:

She introduced a new talent show format, and those shows followed suit.

She created new conceptual peripherals, and those companies followed suit.

She operated a new model boy group, and those companies also follo...can't copy, because Jiang Juyou spent too much money.

The fan community shook daily, but Jiang Juyou dodged a bullet.

Fans:

"To the company: Made the petty Entertainment die. To Jiang Juyou: [wry smile] I'll let you off this time."

"Lol, Jiang Juyou got lightly let off because she's too pretty!"

"Can scold the company but don't scold Jiang Juyou!"

"Every time I see Jiang Juyou training trainees, I think why isn't she training me (sorry)"

After Random Entertainment became the hottest company in the industry, Jiang Juyou was isolated by capital.

Capital didn't play with her, so she became capital herself, becoming the main seat at the table, becoming the one everyone had to suck up to -

Mr Zhao had been single all his life so he placed an order to buy highly rated reference books, including ‘The Guide to Love.’ He went through them one by one with the attitude of reviewing a 10 billion yuan project. “Step one, become a rich man.”

Zhao Yao frowned slightly. “So simple?”

After a while, the stars of a performing arts company shone, the performance of a live streaming company was rising and so on…

Zhao Yao, who was still single, asked his partner in a distressed manner, “Pei Mingzhan, have you ever been in a relationship?”

After enduring the hardships and finally becoming a famous actress, Yun Qinghuan unexpectedly opened her eyes to find herself transmigrated into the role of a deceased elder sister-in-law in a period drama.... more>>

In this particular historical drama, Yun Qinghuan's remarriage led to a tragic fate – she died after having a son, leaving the three-year-old as the story's main antagonist. Eventually, the child turned heaven and earth upside down, only to meet his demise in the end.

Thinking her absurd suggestion would be rejected, Yun Qinghuan was surprised when the next day, the man took her to register their marriage.

The society said that Granny Liu must have plotted this!

Everyone expected a joke, thinking that the ill-fated Yun Qinghuan would eventually leave the disabled Bai Naihan.

Even Yun Qinghuan herself believed this marriage wouldn't last, planning secretly to escape from this family, away from the main antagonist and the powerful figure behind him, to avoid becoming cannon fodder one day.

But who would have thought that this marriage, dismissed by everyone, would become increasingly stable?

Yun Qinghuan, the supposed jinx, turned into a successful film director!

Xie Yun Zhi treated this as just a dream, without any hesitation, he held Yan Lan's hand, pulling him into his embrace...

Former world champion Jiang Mo was once impoverished and on the brink of death, but he found himself transported into a book, becoming a fake young master within its pages.... more>>

Upon the return of the real young master, the original protagonist was kicked out of the family, and the clueless original host joined a dating reality show.

The stage for the eight contestants was actually a story about the protagonist and his six pursuers. Due to the original host's wicked actions, he became despised by everyone.

When Jiang Mo arrived, his agent handed him the script for the despised character, and he had to act according to the script to support the protagonist.

Jiang Mo: Can I not act?

Agent: There's a breach of contract fee of five million, but if you act well, we'll give you an additional hundred thousand.

Jiang Mo: I'll act!!!

As the program aired, the male contestants lavished attention on the protagonist. Jiang Mo held his script, just like in the original story, and the audience compared him to the protagonist.

The other contestants intentionally avoided Jiang Mo, but the first-ranked actor in the book, Chi Ying, stuck to him.

Even Chi Ying's fans noticed it—why was their idol so infatuated with Jiang Mo?

#ChiYu x Jiang Mo# started trending, and the fans of Chi Ying mobilized—

The stoic Chi Yu only smiles at Jiang Mo. Chi Yu only protects Jiang Mo, and his gaze is always fixated on him...

It was all initiated by Chi Yu. What's so good about Jiang Mo?

From Chi Yu's perspective—

Jiang Mo's smile is so sweet.

When playing games, only Jiang Mo looks at Chi Yu with a worried expression.

When scared, Jiang Mo immediately rushes to Chi Yu's side and grabs hold of him...

"Can I have a cute little kitty like this, please?"

"The gaze of Chi Ying, the king of actors, is truly discerning."

"Sorry, but I'm getting high off this."

After the two got together, gossip spread about Chi Ying's affair with the rising star jungler, Wish.
