Chapter 60: Wheel-Turning King

~7 min read 1,350 words

Bai Lu’s petite body leaned against Su Chen’s embrace.

The expression on her face was very complex.

There was the excitement of a flower blooming for the first time.

There was the distortion caused by pain.

And it was filled with shock and disbelief!

How did she end up, in a daze, with Su Chen...

The charm of her own boss

was so great that it was impossible to resist!

When Su Chen’s gaze stared at her,

Bai Lu would involuntarily fall for him.

Completely losing consciousness.

Whatever Su Chen said,

she would say "I do!"

Not to mention, Su Chen also promised to give her a raise.

Which woman could resist this kind of temptation?

So when Bai Lu had self-doubts,

she could boldly shout: Yang Mi did it too! Sister Reba did it too!

So if she did it too, it was very reasonable, right?

Bai Lu asked with a blank look: "Boss, are all men like this, or is it because you are particularly powerful?"

Su Chen just smiled without saying a word.

If he were to unleash 100% of his "Wheel-Turning King" strength,

his little assistant

would probably have her soul return to the West!

Bai Lu grinned.

"Then do I count as being 'submerged' by you? Can I move up?"

Su Chen shrugged.

"I have always said that I value you highly and want you to be my assistant for two years."

"Accumulate some experience and exposure, and then I’ll give you good resources and make you a top-tier star."

"Did you think I was just drawing you a pie?"

Bai Lu suddenly realized.

"In other words... if I sleep with you, you promote me."

"If I don't sleep with you, you promote me too! Then didn't I sleep for nothing?"

Su Chen nodded: "That’s not an incorrect way to understand it."

"I’ll just ask you, do you like it or not?"

"I like it!" Bai Lu felt a burst of secret joy.

Being close to the water, one gets the moon first.

As Su Chen’s assistant,

Bai Lu had to stay by his side most of the time.

Much longer than Yang Mi and the others.

She had taken a huge advantage.

Of course, suffering was also certain.

In the future, she would often have to walk while holding onto the wall.

Although Su Chen didn't have many works,

their quality was too solid.

A song like "Nocturne" swept across the country.

And even spread throughout all of Asia.

And even to Chinese regions all over the world.

The popularity of "Blossoms Shanghai" also remained high.

Su Chen jumped directly from a third-tier star to a super top-tier celebrity.

His traffic was even greater than that of little fresh meats like Xiao Zhan, Wang Yibo, and Yi Yang Qianxi.

When "traffic" and "little fresh meat" are separated, they aren't derogatory terms.

High traffic proves high popularity.

Little fresh meat proves youth and good looks.

It’s mainly because in today’s entertainment industry, the professional ability of new-generation stars is really too poor,

which led to these two terms becoming derogatory!

Su Chen never minded being labeled as a high-traffic little fresh meat.

His phenomenal explosion

attracted the attention of countless global big brands.

Among them was the top luxury brand: Richard Mille.

It is seen as an entry ticket for billionaires.

Any tycoon with a net worth of over 100 million ### CHAPTER 166

finds it hard to refuse this brand.

Richard Mille has many spokespersons globally.

But none domestically.

Considering Su Chen was incredibly popular,

and still very young, with huge room for growth,

plus the domestic consumer market was booming and wealthy people were everywhere,

Richard Mille threw an olive branch to Su Chen.

Trying to further expand the domestic market through Su Chen.

Su Chen could refuse other endorsement brands,

but not Richard Mille.

Not only because the brand was luxurious enough and high-end enough,

but also because after Su Chen became a spokesperson,

the Richard Mille company would gift him two watches for free.

One worth several million,

and one worth nearly 20 million!

Just right to give to Tang Yan.

Besides watches,

Su Chen also endorsed Chow Tai Fook gold, Audi cars, and so on.

All were famous brands.

Holding these luxury endorsements in his hands

was enough to demonstrate Su Chen’s status as a super top-tier star.

Once Su Chen fell from the top tier,

these brands would withdraw immediately.

As long as he still held them,

he was still a top-tier star!

And the more luxury endorsements he had, the more it showed his prestige.

………

"Meet Yourself" had already entered the preparation stage.

The investment was expected to be around 150 million.

The cost of TV series these days

was mostly spent on actors’ salaries.

TV series starring some top-tier little fresh meats or little flower actresses,

for example, with a cost of 100 million,

it was possible that this top-tier star would take away 80 million alone.

That was not an exaggeration at all.

At her peak, Baby would take tens of millions for filming a single drama.

The key was that she rarely went to the set, using body doubles throughout.

Even using cutout editing.

Just taking the money without doing the work.

That salary was really easy to earn!

Liu Liu Tianxian’s salary was 40 million.

Liu Liu Shishi’s was 30 million.

That already accounted for half.

As one of the producers, Su Chen didn't take a salary.

Instead, he took an extra 20% share of the dividends.

Originally, he didn't want to take this extra 20%,

but Yang Mi insisted on giving it.

Even brothers must settle accounts clearly.

Su Chen helping Yang Mi write scripts and create TV dramas

was certainly out of their feelings for each other.

But when it came to talking about money,

Yang Mi wouldn't give Su Chen a penny less.

Given Su Chen’s current status,

his salary would be about equal to Liu Liu Tianxian and Liu Liu Shishi combined.

If he also demanded a normal salary,

then the investment for this drama

wouldn't be enough even with 200 million!

Besides the salary,

the remaining part was used for costumes, props, sets, extra actors, food, and promotion, etc.

It wasn't too much, but it was enough.

Su Chen packed his luggage a few days in advance and booked his flight.

Preparing to take Bai Lu with him to fly to Yunnan.

Filming while enjoying poetry and the distance.

Being a star is probably the happiest profession in the world.

Ordinary people have to spend a lot of money to travel outside.

While stars not only don't have to spend money,

but also receive sky-high salaries.

Making big money while enjoying travel!

And even then, many actors complain every day.

Purely spoiled.

If you sent these people to the cutthroat entertainment industry of the ROK,

they would have no foothold at all.

At this time,

Su Chen received a call from Liu Liu Tianxian.

"Hello, Su Chen, where... where are you?"

"I'm at home," Su Chen answered calmly.

Liu Liu Tianxian stammered: "It’s like this..."

"My mom wanted to introduce a Hollywood actor to be my boyfriend."

"If we get along, she even agreed to let us get married."

"But I said I already have a boyfriend. Today she is flying over from New York."

"Can you pretend to be my boyfriend?"

"Just for one day! Just to get my mom to leave."

"Pretend to be your boyfriend... that doesn't seem right, does it?"

"Fairy Sister, why don't I be Duan Yu for once and be your real boyfriend!" Su Chen smirked.

Liu Liu Tianxian coughed up blood: "In your dreams! You want to turn the fake into real and take the opportunity to hit on me?"

"I don't have any plans to date recently."

As the former ceiling of female stars in the entertainment industry,

Liu Liu Tianxian’s private life was relatively clean. ### CHAPTER 167

Liu Liu Tianxian was once the ceiling of female stars in the entertainment industry.

Her private life was still relatively clean.
