Chapter 1979: Chapter 448: The Young Man Who Courts the Cabbage

So likable.

The introduction of Tang Bao also mentioned that she is the head of the Boy Fan Club in Yuncheng City.

Not only that, but even the complete audio of Tang Bao flirting at a Boy concert quickly spread across the country.

In no time, everyone became a fan.

I’ve never seen such a down-to-earth rich girl.

She’s too cute.

Although it was a half-finished advertisement spread by fans, everyone eagerly anticipated what the finished product would be.

LQ Tang Bao, Tang Bao Boy, Gu Xiran, and other terms quickly rose to the top three on search rankings.

It’s a typical case of becoming popular before official release.

...

Gu Family Design Department.

Jian Ran received the data on Tang Bao sent from the entertainment company under Gu Family and smiled with satisfaction.

The buzz was much better than expected.

After all, Tang Bao’s personality is loved by everyone.

"Miss Jian, Miss Tang Bao is now one of the hottest child stars in the country. If guided properly, she can definitely become a top-tier celebrity in the country."

"Recently, many advertisements, TV shows, and film crews have sent proposals to collaborate with the Gu Family. Would you like to choose a few for Miss Tang Bao? The offers are all exorbitantly high. Although Miss Tang Bao is a small actor in the crew, her rate is no less than the main male and female leads."

Upon hearing this, Jian Ran slightly lifted the corners of her lips, then firmly waved her hand.

"There’s no rush for instant success. Tang Bao currently lacks any foundational acting skills. Even if she is naturally talented, she has no real-world experience. If she rashly takes roles, it may not pay off."

After thinking for a moment, Jian Ran pursed her lips and said.

"Let’s do this: decline all invitations for commercials for now. During this period, since Tang Bao is still young and her studies are not too demanding, I will take her to become an apprentice at the home of Fen Ming, a top actor in the country, since she likes performance."

"Ah... Miss Jian, are you joking? Miss Tang Bao is currently extremely sought after. Considering such a good opportunity, isn’t going to apprentice a waste? Moreover, which actors nowadays have received professional training? Aren’t they all... directly on stage? They need visual effects and audience appeal. Apprenticeship is quite strenuous."

The manager from the entertainment company was quite puzzled.

After all, Tang Bao has all the favorable conditions.

What more could she need...

She has great inherent qualities.

Hearing the manager’s words, Jian Ran slightly curved her lips, and said.

"Love the profession you work in. Although Tang Bao likes performance as a hobby, whether she can go far depends on her level of professionalism."

After a pause, Jian Ran softly said.

"If we have to make a choice, I would prefer Tang Bao to become a professional actor in the future, rather than just a high-popularity celebrity."

Manager: "..."

Jian Ran’s words completely shattered all of the manager’s previous assumptions.

Though a bit unwilling, she was deeply impressed by Jian Ran’s demeanor and attitude.

Jian Ran had a longer-term vision, whereas she was only focusing on immediate small gains.

"Understood, Mrs. Gu, I was being short-sighted."

Jian Ran shook her head at the words and said gently, "I understand that you fully consider Tang Bao’s best interest, wanting to make the most of the momentum by collaborating with top-notch teams. Tang Bao could eclipse the hottest A-list stars within six months. But... if she has no acting skills and relies on connections or the team we’ve built around her, I’m worried she won’t be able to bear the weight of the crown."

To wear a crown, one must bear its weight.

Gu Mochen and I can protect her for a while, but the entertainment industry is deep.

To protect her for a lifetime is extremely difficult. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

It’s very important to have basic skills to rely on.

"Indeed, Mrs. Gu, you are very foresighted. There are indeed many precedents like this in the industry."

Beauty will eventually be replaced.

But acting skills are irreplaceable.

Jian Ran nodded lightly. As parents, they value long-term development over immediate benefits.

Jian Ran once again carefully reviewed the hot discussion posts online and said,

"By the way, help confirm with LQ when the advertisement will be released."

"Miss Jian, it’s confirmed that they want to release it the day before or after your and Mr. Gu’s wedding, to create a buzz for you."

Gu Mochen’s wedding was known throughout the city, and everyone was eagerly anticipating what the grand wedding would look like.

Upon hearing the manager’s words, Jian Ran lightly tugged at the corners of her lips.
