Chapter 481 - 253: Bombarding the Old Green Tea! The Rebellious Overalls King!
A bit interesting!
Ning An looked at the panel’s content and couldn’t help but nod.
However, there’s one thing that made Ning An feel a bit uneasy, or rather like a bone stuck in his throat.
Up until now, the system has provided more and more humanized ways to fulfill wishes.
Although it still maintains a very fair position, Ning An always feels a bit uncomfortable but can’t seem to pinpoint the exact reason.
It’s as if something secret is hidden away, never to be known by Third Sister.
While Ning An was thinking this, the Overalls King had already finished making his wish.
Coincidentally, the Overalls King walked out of the hall and immediately ran to Wang Nan in the corner.
Although the girl looked sweet, he had seen countless girls prettier than her.
Yet today, for some reason, a ripple suddenly arose in his heart.
The Overalls King scanned Wang Nan, making her heartbeat accelerate instantly.
She had always been paying attention to her idol, and now being stared at this way by him, it felt like countless little deer were running wild in her heart.
After a few glances, the Overalls King made a call and summoned his agent inside, then smirked at Wang Nan and said:
"What do you think of this girl?"
The agent was bewildered: "What’s there to think about?"
The Overalls King casually replied, "Isn’t today’s script about being a one-day couple? I think she’s quite suitable, why not choose her?"
The agent couldn’t quite grasp what was happening: "Are you drunk on fake alcohol from yesterday?"
The Overalls King rolled his eyes: "Bro, I’m serious, don’t you think her girl-next-door vibe would resonate more with the audience in front of the screen?"
"I don’t know about fairness."
The agent paused and said, "Anyway, the chance of you getting ripped apart by the Celestial Empress is quite high."
This one-day couple reality show, to be blunt, had impure motives from the start.
Using the ever-popular Overalls King’s fame, combined with the ambiguous couple theme, it’s likely to bring considerable traffic to the outdated Celestial Empress.
Similarly, the Overalls King could gain substantial attention as well, plus the funding from the production team isn’t small, making it a real win-win situation.
For such things, although the Overalls King scoffed, he didn’t oppose it.
After all, the show openly sought ways to promote its artists, without resorting to any underhanded means, so accepting it wasn’t a problem.
But now, he suddenly felt that this one-day couple show could be approached differently.
The Overalls King looked at his agent and said seriously, "Anyway, their intent is to promote her to rise again, don’t you think compared to pretending to be a couple with me, it’d be more effective if she turns into a jealous woman?"
"I don’t think so."
The agent looked at him with a big-skeptical glance: "They want her to rise again with a pure and sweet image, not through messy squabbles."
"Tch." The Overalls King scoffed, muttering, "She’s so old she could almost be my mom, dreaming is quite nice."
The agent seemed used to his straightforwardness and only weakly reminded him: "Keep it down, at least she’s your senior."
The Overalls King stayed silent; previously, he had no objection to being the supporting act for the Celestial Empress to help her rise again.
But now, after seeing Wang Nan, his heart suddenly warmed up again.
Thinking more about it, having to flirt with someone who looks like a wrinkled prune and performing a live couple act for a day makes his skin crawl, and he shivered slightly.
"You’re not going, are you? Fine, then I’ll go."
The Overalls King became more and more apprehensive, looking at Wang Nan again, and made a decision.
Seeing the Overalls King genuinely intending to go, the agent quickly stopped him in shock: "Wait, you’re serious?"
"What else?" The Overalls King responded unenthusiastically: "Having a loving scene with someone old enough to be my mom, I’m afraid I’d get too excited and mess up the acting."
What the heck!
The agent cursed inwardly, realizing it was a full-on threat.
The Overalls King’s intention was clear; if things didn’t go his way, he might mess up the show.
It could be a small slip-up or a major disaster; no one could predict since the Overalls King’s whims are well-known.
Moreover, the most important thing is the Overalls King’s immense popularity!
All these years, other popular male artists have only been famous for a few months or, at most, a year!
But the Overalls King is different; it’s been five years, and his popularity is still explosive, with every move capable of igniting the internet, practically a walking trending topic!
As a cash cow like this, as long as he’s not involved in gambling or drugs, the company will do everything to keep him.
Many times, the company doesn’t even need to intervene; his huge number of loyal fans win the public opinion battle for him, it’s terrifying.
If someone offends others or makes a mistake, someone has to bear the responsibility.
The Overalls King certainly can’t, while the assistants are too insignificant and the company is too influential, so it ends up on him.
"You stay here obediently."
The agent, feeling a headache, could only grit his teeth and say: "I’ll ask for you, but if the girl doesn’t agree, you stay put and don’t cause any more trouble!"
"Okay."
The Overalls King nodded with a smile, seeing Wang Nan’s eyes filled with surprise and helplessness.
