This Female Celebrity Comes from the Cultivation World

Chapter 18

Several dozen kilometers away in Hongchaoyang Community, a certain building, a certain household.

Shen Feixian and Feng Juechen were sitting in front of the sofa, looking at the laptop on the coffee table, and through the computer screen, they saw Song Jixing running on the playground.

Recently, Shen Feixian has been obsessed with the Internet and registered accounts on many social software. He did not forget his original intention to continue looking for money-making activities, followed many news channels, and naturally saw the name of his junior sister on relevant hot searches, so he invited Feng Juechen, who was also at home, to watch together.

After watching the whole process with his junior brother.

"Senior brother, can you make money by moving your legs here?" Feng Juechen thought.

They could only not use spiritual power, their bodies were still cultivated in the immortal world, and running was just as easy for him.

"Yes, but you still need an ID card like Junior Sister Song." Shen Feixian said seriously.

Feng Juechen nodded lightly, with some regret in his heart.

"But don't worry too much about this identity issue, junior brother. In recent days, I have been studying hard and learning about the knowledge of the Internet. I heard that the secrets of this identity card are hidden on the Internet. When I figure it out, I will be able to make one for you too."

"Good luck, senior brother!"

The senior and junior brothers encouraged each other, and Feng Juechen picked up the mop to do housework.

In an office in a skyscraper in City Y, three urban elites in suits and leather shoes were sitting in a conference room watching Song Jixing's live broadcast of running.

After seeing Song Jixing's entire run, one of the overweight men breathed a sigh of relief, far from happy.

"Mr. Chen, look at this Song Jixing!" The fat man asked carefully. He was Song Jixing's agent Xu Kai.

The one called Mr. Chen was a short-haired woman in an eggplant purple suit and flaming red lips. Her delicate and slender fingers were intertwined and clasped on the table, slightly moving her middle finger.

Chen Rong thought for a moment, frowning, "Bring me Song Jixing's contract to take a look!"

The skinny, bespectacled man next to him immediately handed over the contract.

Song Jixing's contract was not very long, just a few pages. Chen Rong flipped through it and found several key points. "The contract expires next year?"

"Yes, Mr. Chen, we signed it in the year Song Jixing was admitted to university. I heard from Old Zhou that she proposed signing the shortest term herself." Xu Kai said nervously.

Chen Rong put down the contract, "What about her recent schedule? Let me see!"

When it came to Song Jixing's schedule, Xu Kai didn't look very comfortable.

Although Chen Rong couldn't act, after doing business for so many years, she could see Xu Kai's expression on his face.

"What good dramas has she filmed in the past two years that are worth promoting?" Chen Rong asked directly.

When it came to the dramas Song Jixing had taken, Xu Kai was even more guilty.

In Xu Kai's opinion, none of them were outstanding.

Xu Kai was not Song Jixing's first agent, he took over in the later years, when Song Jixing was already obscure.

As an agent, he naturally hoped that his artist would be hot and popular!

But Song Jixing was too picky! She would rather play zombies than idol dramas, rejected anything with slightly more exposure, she really treated herself like an ancestor!

This was an era of relying on looks and money. As an orphan without money or power, Song Jixing relied entirely on the company's resources.

She couldn't get good resources, and she was unwilling to pay the price either. What could he do?

They were a regular company and still had basic principles.

After dealing with Song Jixing twice, Xu Kai had figured her out! He just selected a "small production" for Song Jixing according to her requirements! To get her to earn back the capital of the contract, it was quite effective.

Over the years, she not only earned back the capital, but also earned a lot of money.

Seeing her subordinate's appearance, Chen Rong understood it right away!

"Mr. Chen! It's really not that I don't give her resources, she just doesn't cooperate! Her rules are too much! She said she has to go to class every day, with her good looks, she should rely on her face to make a living, act in more high-exposure works, but she herself is not willing..." Xu Kai explained guiltily.

Chen Rong has been in this industry for so many years, of course she would not just listen to Xu Kai's side of the story. For agents like Xu Kai, what they hold are just leftover resources that no one wants, far from good quality. Filming them basically does not make one popular, and artists are understandable for not wanting to act in them.

Chen Rong tapped the table with her hand, "No matter the scale, organize it, she can't have filmed nothing!"

An artist's complete list of works is recorded at the end of each year, and each artist in the company has one.

Hearing this, Xu Kai immediately went to the office to get it.

Half an hour later, after reading Song Jixing's work calendar, Chen Rong thought about how to handle it.

-

When contracting artists like Song Jixing, the company had the mentality of casting a wide net to catch more fish from the start. Even if she becomes popular for a while, she can still earn a lot of money, so they will not lose money anyway.

The highest profile job Song Jixing has taken so far was a variety show six months after she first signed the contract, everything else was very average.

Song Jixing's drama shooting schedules were concentrated during winter and summer vacations, and she would go into several crews every holiday, working only 4 months a year, and taking only small jobs for the rest of the time. From the perspective of her being a student and needing to go to class, Chen Rong felt she was quite dedicated.

Chen Rong had seen many people like Song Jixing who suddenly became popular and got signed. There were many who did worse than Song Jixing, some went down the wrong path and got blacklisted directly, some did not promote themselves well, couldn't sing or dance as well as others, and then they lost opportunities.

The competition in their industry was fierce, without special means and skills, people would be eliminated. The top capital can make mediocre idols popular, because they have fans to carry them. But minor celebrities who don't work hard will naturally fade away without fans to support them.

Even a star who just has a good-looking face, without capital willing to heavily promote them, will naturally become obscure.

There are many people who dream of being stars, but very few can really become superstars, not every company has even one or two.

The fact that Song Jixing could keep getting roles in crews and receive continuous invitations showed that her acting skills were quite solid, and she was welcomed by directors.

With a foundation in acting skills, and irreplaceable strengths, Song Jixing's value was even higher.

The only problem was that her contract was about to expire, and Chen Rong didn't want to miss this opportunity.

Even if she didn't make a move, other companies that caught a whiff of this would, who knows if Song Jixing would jump ship in a few days.

"There are still some dramas that can be promoted, have the publicity department hand over the work, start immediately. Call her now and arrange a time to have her come to the company, I want to have a good talk with her." Chen Rong said.

Xu Kai immediately nodded obsequiously, and directly called Song Jixing.

-

On the other side of the sports field, Song Jixing took off her sweat-drenched clothes, drank water and ate chocolate to replenish her energy.

Hu Mingliang walked over gleefully, "Xiao Song..."

The school leader who was standing next to him stepped forward, went in front of Hu Mingliang, and started chatting with Song Jixing directly, the students sitting in the stands also gathered around.

Hu Mingliang was directly squeezed to the outside by the enthusiastic crowd, he unwillingly squeezed forward a little, but there were too many people that he simply couldn't squeeze in.

The school leadership gave Song Jixing some official words of consolation, praised her extraordinary talent, and also asked about her recent life in passing.

"...If Xiao Song has any difficulties, just tell the school directly! The school will try its best to help you..."

At this point, Song Jixing was very attentive!

"...Teacher, if I get first place in both the city marathon and the double first place, wouldn't that make me the first place in the whole school too?"

"Of course that would be!" World first place even!

"When can I get the award?" Song Jixing subtly expressed her longing for the 2,000 yuan prize money.

Hearing her desire, the leader immediately responded, "Tomorrow! We'll prepare the certificate for you tomorrow and award it in the auditorium!"

Although Song Jixing was drooling for the 2,000 yuan, thinking of having to give an award acceptance speech in the auditorium gave her a headache, "......I have something to do tomorrow, promised someone I'd work a part-time job, won't have so much time to go to the auditorium to accept the award, can I just directly pick it up at the teaching building?"

Such a big matter, she ought to at least give a short speech in the lecture hall, how could she just take it without any ceremony!

For other students, they might try to persuade them, but everything has exceptions!

The school readily agreed to Song Jixing's request to just directly collect the certificate at the teaching building tomorrow, and kept praising Song Jixing.

Then they also invited her to take commemorative photos together, which Song Jixing naturally agreed to!

Song Jixing and the others put on their usual businesslike demeanor, enthusiastically posing for pictures one by one.

After taking pictures with the leaders and teachers, taking pictures with the teachers and students, a long line of people queued directly on the playground.

Fortunately, the gates in the fence around the playground were locked, and one could only enter and exit through the small door behind the stands, otherwise the line would have been even longer.

Due to the students' excessive enthusiasm, the playground was now exit only; occasionally an excited student wanted to directly climb over the fence to get in, but would be caught on the spot by school security and dragged off to the side!

Hu Mingliang was forced to join the queue, lining up one by one.

Time ticked forward second by second, and it seemed that ten minutes had passed, it would soon be his turn! He had to advise Song Jixing not to act like a celebrity!

falalalala?(^?^*)~

Song Jixing's cell phone rang.

"Hello?" Song Jixing saw her agent's sudden call, and instinctively answered.

Although the school's two thousand dollars was important, this person was even more so her provider of food and shelter! Couldn't lose him!

Hu Mingliang hesitated to speak.
