Chapter 611: The CP name for Oranges and Pears: Vitamins

~14 min read 2,796 words

After accepting the interview at Chenxi Entertainment, Jin Li left the company and headed to N City, where the "Dawn" production team was located.

The journey was smooth, with only a few paparazzi following the car.

Most paparazzi, after getting the answers, worked on the spot, processed them, sent them to the company, and then had the company's media account publish them.

This process was compressed by many paparazzi into half an hour.

If it were any later, they wouldn't be able to grab the front-page headline.

Time was tight, so they had no energy to continue following Jin Li.

"Sister Jin Li, do you want to shake them off?"

Xiao Cheng saw the familiar license plate number in the mirror and asked.

Jin Li thought for a while and shook her head: "No need, just let them follow. I came out this time to participate in activities, which requires exposure; it's impossible to be completely hidden."

Xiao Cheng said crisply: "Okay."

After saying that, she added with some regret: "I thought I could try the new technique I learned today."

Jin Li couldn't help but look at Chen Qin, her eyes very clear: Where did she learn it from?

Chen Qin shook her head: I don't know either.

Jin Li:?

Chen Qin:??

Suddenly, Chen Qin seemed to think of something, took out her phone, and opened a video from an up-uploader. Coincidentally, this up-uploader was a racing driver.

Chen Qin handed the phone to Jin Li. Jin Li looked down and saw that this up-uploader was teaching everyone how to overtake on curves, how to show off skills to overtake, how to accelerate on straight lines to overtake...

Jin Li was speechless for a moment and silently wrapped the thin blanket on her body tighter.

Why am I a little scared?

And not long after Jin Li set off, many media outlets also issued interview reports about Jin Li.

#Jin Li says she didn't know Gu Cheng was also taking the college entrance exam#

#Jin Li and Gu Cheng have exchanged ideas on learning#

#Jin Li envies Gu Cheng for being very smart#

It wasn't evening yet, but the blog had already ushered in the highest peak of screen-scrolling for the day.

There is a type of fan in the world that almost didn't exist in the past, but once it appeared, it grew at a super-fast speed every year.

The growth was so rapid that it almost overturned the standard systems set by past die-hard fans, career fans, mom fans, and boyfriend/girlfriend fans.

That is—

Terrifying CP fans!

Everything can be a CP, breaking the boundaries of ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign. The ferocity of their fangs even developed to human-animal love at one point!

Of course, CPs between the same species are the mainstream, and cross-species love remains niche even in the CP world.

Originally, Gu Cheng and Jin Li developed separately, one a boy band member and the other a former girl band member, without much intersection in announcements.

But after a chance variety show activity, the two met.

Since then, CP fans, like wild fire meeting spring breeze, ignited sparks with a "whoosh" and joined the carnival feast of shipping CPs.

The "Vitamin" legion of the two expanded rapidly, from a group of only five people at the beginning to a hundred-person group, a thousand-person group, and after "Assassination" aired, it expanded to a ten-thousand-person group!

Originally, the two stars didn't interact much publicly, and the Vitamins only shipped them secretly, hiding among the career fans of the two stars.

However, now that the two took the college entrance exam together and their grades were both top-notch, even many netizens were playing matchmaker, imagining how good-looking and smart their children would be, the Vitamin legion had another super-fast expansion.

They grew stronger in one hot search after another and had become a force that could not be ignored, capable of arm-wrestling with the career fans of the two stars!

In today's hot search, Jin Li rarely talked about Gu Cheng. Not to mention what netizens thought, the Vitamins said today was like Chinese New Year!

【Ah ah ah, the CP I ship finally talked about each other!】

【Jin Li doesn't avoid suspicion? Wait, she doesn't seem to need to avoid suspicion, because the only male star she has a good relationship with is Sanyuetian!】

【Jin Li never mentions the male actors she has collaborated with before!】

【Really want to know how Gu Cheng views Jin Li!!】

【Is there any paparazzi lurking, mixing into Guangyue Media, and catching Gu Cheng for an interview?】

Because the CP fans were too excited, in a short while, they created a tag in the top twenty—

#Can Gu Cheng respond to Jin Li#

Jin Li arrived in N City, looked at the hot search under Chen Qin's reminder, and said helplessly: "Only Gu Cheng and I took the college entrance exam. I thought netizens were already very familiar with us two and wouldn't be so—"

She paused, "making a fuss."

Chen Qin could vaguely guess that the relationship between Sister Jin Li and Gu Cheng was very good, but she didn't know exactly how good.

Sometimes she would encounter them on video calls, but they were all talking about questions, so Chen Qin only thought it was a friendship of mutual struggle at first.

It was only under Sister Fang's reminder that she suddenly realized: how can there be pure friendship between men and women!

Especially two stars whose announcements are very busy, taking time out of their day to video call each other every day, if this isn't love...

Cough cough, stop.

Chen Qin came back to her senses and said: "Since the college entrance exam results came out, you and Gu Cheng basically haven't appeared, and even if you do, you never accept media interviews, so netizens don't know your thoughts and moods."

She suggested: "Actually, if you talk more about each other, netizens won't be as inquisitive as they are now, and there will be much less curiosity."

A flash of thoughtfulness crossed Jin Li's eyes, "Really?"

Chen Qin said: "According to the acquaintance theory, if you talk about each other often, netizens will instead feel that this is friendship. Only people with ghosts in their hearts would have no contact with each other at all, hiding and tucking things away."

Jin Li nodded: "Makes sense."

"Jin Li!"

They only waited for a while before the production team's staff arrived at the designated location and picked Jin Li up to get into another car.

The production team was still promoting in N City today, but they had to change the promotion location, and the hotel hadn't been decided yet, so Jin Li was picked up by people sent by the production team instead of letting Jin Li arrive directly.

The staff apologized to Jin Li in panic, "I'm sorry, we set off two hours early, but we didn't expect to encounter a traffic accident. We waited at the accident scene for a long time. I'm really sorry!"

Jin Li said: "It's okay, it doesn't matter."

Chen Qin hurriedly changed the subject: "Has the production team booked the hotel? Is Director Chu still at the cinema here?"

The staff said: "Not yet. Director Chu is not at the cinema; he is at a hotel near the cinema. He said that after picking up Sister Jin Li, the production team will set off together, and there are some things to talk to Sister Jin Li about first."

Chen Qin asked about the situation of the plot and learned that the male and female leads were there, only missing Jin Li, so she couldn't help but smile and say: "We can take a family photo for the next promotion!"

The staff also smiled: "We will take one at every stop. Fans and production team actors have joint photos."

Chen Qin smiled without saying a word.

Except for this stop of promotion that was already set, it was hard to say whether Jin Li would be at the next stop.

Soon, the car drove to the hotel.

Jin Li, surrounded by everyone, quickly entered the hotel.

Inside the floor-to-ceiling window of a room, Xu Ting and her manager were talking about the current performance of "Dawn."

Xu Ting's peripheral vision caught a glimpse of the bottom, and she seemed to see Jin Li, so she couldn't help but straighten her body and lean over to look.

The manager noticed her movement and asked: "What's wrong? What happened outside the window?"

Xu Ting frowned, withdrew her gaze, and said: "A star checked into the hotel. It seems to be Jin Li; I didn't see clearly who it was."

"Jin Li?" The manager said subconsciously: "It can't be her. She is so famous and is in the period of sudden popularity. She must be going to other announcements and won't come over to promote 'Dawn'."

Although actors have an obligation to promote for the production team, it also depends on whether the actors are busy.

Look at those popular actors; their daily schedules are packed. Where would they have time to spare for the production team?

And without a doubt, Jin Li is the most popular among the popular, the well-deserved god of traffic in the summer!

Xu Ting said with dissatisfaction: "She is a supporting actress in the production team anyway; it's normal for her to come over and help the production team promote. How come all the work is done by us, and she sits back and enjoys the fruits?"

The manager was choked by her words and wanted to say that the production team relied on Jin Li to stir up heat the whole time. It was already good that Jin Li didn't pursue it in reverse, and she still expected others to promote voluntarily. Was she thinking too beautifully?

However, seeing the expression on Xu Ting's face, she wisely swallowed her words.

Anyone with eyes could see that Xu Ting's state was not right, especially after mentioning Jin Li, the jealousy in her eyes could spit fire!

The manager said: "Regardless, 'Dawn' has achieved such good results. As the female lead, you will be remembered in film history."

"'Dawn' has dominated the list for a week in a row. The box office of the second-place 'Air Rescue Operation' has gradually pulled up, and the gap between the two sides is very small. You should work harder on your side to create some heat for the movie."

Xu Ting's face was a little tired: "I have run every promotion, and I have also gone to the roadshows. I have done my best and worked diligently in every one. I can't figure out what kind of hot spots I can create for the production team?"

The manager said on the surface: "Well, just do your best."

Actually, she sighed in her heart.

She looked at Xu Ting's exquisitely made-up face and couldn't help thinking: The entertainment industry doesn't just rely on being pretty to survive. Some people are beautiful, but they just don't have the fate to be big hits.

Xu Ting is beautiful and has acting skills. After struggling for so many years, she also has a few movies with good reputations, but unfortunately, she just doesn't have a big hit.

Now that she finally has a big hit, it was achieved by relying on someone else's fame. It is a bit of a trick of fate.

Manager: "I mentioned to you before that you need to transform and take on more down-to-earth works that are close to the masses' lives. I saw a script and sent it to you. Have you read it?"

Xu Ting said lightly: "I read it, but I don't think it's necessary to transform so quickly. That script requires no makeup and films the poor side of the people, which is inconsistent with the image I have been marketing. I don't want to take it."

The manager looked at her, wanting to speak but stopping.

"Jin Li! Welcome to the production team!"

Chu Chenliang received the news that Jin Li had arrived and hurried to the reception hall.

He reached out and held Jin Li's hand, his expression a little excited.

Jin Li just wanted to congratulate him that the results of "Dawn" were good, and it had been number one since the summer file started, but then she heard Director Chu say:

"I've held the hand of the Wenchang Star who descended to earth. I won't wash this hand. My niece is coming over later, and I will specifically hold her hand to pass the talent to her."

Jin Li chuckled and said helplessly: "I can hold your niece's hand directly. Without this layer of your transmission, it might be more effective, and I can also sign for her and write blessings."

"By the way, how old is your niece?"

Chu Chenliang smiled and said: "I was just waiting for this sentence. My niece is three years old this year!"

Jin Li was a little confused.

After a while, she said: "You really are planning ahead."

Chu Chenliang: "This is called foresight. Being touched by the Wenchang Star since childhood will let her brain open up earlier."

Jin Li said helplessly: "Director Chu, my score is not high, so I can't be the Wenchang Star. It's just the blessing of the gods. If you really want to talk about the Wenchang Star, the closest one is probably only Gu Cheng. He is the truly smart one."

Chu Chenliang sighed: "Gu Cheng? I know. That artist who scored 730. I still don't have his contact information. Isn't this just not meeting?"

Jin Li said casually: "I have it. I'll push it to you."

Once the words were out, she suddenly reacted and widened her eyes slightly.

"This is your real purpose, right?"

Chu Chenliang immediately guaranteed with a serious expression: "No, absolutely not. I didn't deliberately set you up for Gu Cheng's contact information!"

Jin Li:...

After the conversation, the strangeness between the two dissipated, and Director Chu took the initiative to mention the movie's results to her.

"It looks good now, but in fact, the growth has slowed down a bit, but this is also normal."

"Because we had more promotion in the early stage, netizens' expectations for this film were pulled very high, so the results were already realized when it was just released."

"The driving force for the box office growth later still has to return to the quality of the film."

Jin Li specifically looked at Director Chu. Director Chu said these words with full confidence.

He still has great confidence in the film he shot.

Since that's the case, Jin Li didn't ask much more, only saying: "If there is anything I can help with, just speak up."

Chu Chenliang shook his head: "You can take time out of your busy schedule to do two promotions for us, which is already a great help to the production team."

Jin Li: "This is what I should do. Actually, I want to stay with the production team to run promotions, but my manager doesn't agree, and the company doesn't agree."

She said apologetically: "There are many things that I cannot fully decide."

Chu Chenliang: "The company has the company's considerations. Your company is good to you; they didn't push you out to run announcements immediately and still plan for you."

"In this industry, I have seen too many people who are eager for quick success. Chenxi Entertainment and you both have unusual steadiness."

Jin Li smiled lightly: "I don't know much about the company level. As for the artist, I should be the most Buddhist one among all artists. I don't have high demands for money."

The two chatted for half an hour before walking out of the reception hall.

After Jin Li came out, she found that the production team members were all standing outside, including the male and female leads.

This made her feel a little flattered.

Xu Ting stepped forward with a smile to greet her: "Jin Li, long time no see. Congratulations on scoring a high score. I wish you can get into your ideal university."

Jin Li said politely: "Thank you!"

Bai Jiang asked curiously: "Have you decided on the university and major you want to attend?"

Jin Li nodded: "It was already decided the moment the score came out."

Xu Ting asked: "Can I know?"

Jin Li shook her head with a smile: "The company currently requires confidentiality."

The atmosphere of the production team looked harmonious. Director Chu took the opportunity to announce that they should go to eat first and then change hotels. ===== CHAPTER 612 =====
