Brother Dao Took the Entertainment Industry by Storm, Fans Beg Me Not to Kill Anymore-Chapter 474: Live Stream Ends — Going Independent

Wow, a xianxia version of a time loop? That's kind of interesting.

I think it's really interesting too. It's the first time I've seen this kind of loop, and it really does have a bit of that sense of destiny.

It feels like it's going to be really tragic. The female lead goes back again and again, each time falling into that final death loop, wanting to have the best of both worlds, but always making things worse.

Don't you guys know there's an original work with the same name? I was originally just waiting for the TV drama, but then I accidentally fell into the original and couldn't get out. I really like all the characters in it.

Cangyue Calamity is actually getting a live-action drama... I feel a bit wistful.

I remember when I was 'buying stocks' back then, I backed the wrong horse. I was super into the female lead and the second male lead, but I never expected... sob, talking about it brings tears.

The male lead's charm is also really high though. Always being the female lead's support, always believing in her.

Alright, I admit it, I was into the little junior...

I took a quick look at the casting, and it seems barely acceptable. I was originally quite worried that Brother Xiao playing the senior brother would be OOC, but after seeing the trailer, I'm sold.

Brother Xiao's acting has always been pretty good! When they gave his eyes a close-up, I almost didn't recognize him. Later, even with his whole face, I felt he was meant to be that brilliant, radiant senior brother. His acting is really immersive.

Remember when Xiao He was announced to play the senior brother? So many people were screaming. And now? This is the chosen one!

Oh my god, don't say things like that. Don't put my Brother Xiao on the hot seat like that.

Cangyue Calamity production team, you guys are really something! Deliberately dropping the trailer at this exact time. Right now is when I'm most blindly confident about Brother Xiao's acting skills. You drop this, and my heart instantly feels like it's hooked. Can you just serve up the finished product already?

Ahhh, why did I have to see this now? Please, just broadcast it soon!

You have the ability to release a trailer, but not the ability to release the actual show? I'm giving you three seconds, don't make me beg you on my knees!

The bullet comments, having watched the trailer along with Xiao He, immediately erupted into a flurry of discussion, with many expressing anticipation for the official broadcast of Cangyue Calamity.

Xiao He, meanwhile, wore an expression of helpless sympathy. "I just saw the trailer too. Don't rush me, I can't help make it broadcast any faster."

"Should I ask about the premiere date for you?"

"Alright, I can ask about that."

Xiao He began fiddling with his phone, going to a group chat to ask Liu Rulan.

As expected, Liu Rulan was aware of the Cangyue Calamity situation. The production team had indeed noticed Xiao He was live streaming and, considering his recent heat, decided to just release one version of the trailer.

As for the specific timing, Liu Rulan told Xiao He to keep it a mystery too, to wait for the production team to release the trailers one by one.

So, Xiao He shrugged at the camera. "Don't blame me, I tried my best. I really didn't get any useful info."

Instantly, the bullet comments were filled with wails of despair.

Xiao He immediately seized the chance to change the subject, chatting casually for a while before saying goodbye to the netizens in the live stream room right on time.

After ending the live stream, Xiao He didn't linger. After saying goodbye to He Junhao, he immediately returned to Linghui Entertainment.

It felt like in their line of work, there was no rest time at night either.

When Xiao He arrived, Liu Rulan was still in her office.

"Late-night snacks entrusted by He Junhao. Have something to eat first."

Xiao He shook the bag in his hand and placed it on the coffee table.

"Why did you come over?"

Liu Rulan was somewhat surprised.

"Hey, from the speed you replied to my messages, I knew you were definitely at the company watching the stream. After my stream ended, you were probably still holed up in your office monitoring the public opinion winds. See, I guessed right."

Xiao He crossed his arms, his expression full of teasing.

Actually, he thought Liu Rulan was the real superhuman. He had the System's support, so he could stay up and be active like this now. But Liu Rulan, without any such support, could also work overtime every day, keep up with his pace, and handle work in an orderly manner. Xiao He genuinely admired her.

"Fine, you're amazing."

Liu Rulan turned and took the items out of the insulated bag.

"Cookies, pastries, chocolate, and... sweet drinks?"

Seeing the contents, Liu Rulan couldn't help but twitch the corner of her eye. "I can tell both you and your friend are single."

Bringing over such high-calorie, high-carb stuff late at night was practically trying to kill her.

For a successful woman diligently maintaining her figure and controlling her appetite, this was simply a disaster.

"Huh?"

Xiao He, who no longer needed to manage his figure, scratched his head in confusion.

Liu Rulan looked at him with a complicated expression, but finally the corner of her mouth lifted slightly. "Forget it, thanks. You should head back early yourself."

"Is there anything else you need to take care of?"

Xiao He asked.

Liu Rulan continued typing away at her computer.

"I'm flying to Beijing tomorrow, might be gone for a while. You focus on completing your own work in Shanghai recently. The box office for No Bait is basically stable now, you don't need to do anything extra. Just let things take their natural course."

"Okay."

"Almost forgot to remind you. Yu Xuezheng formally left Xingchen Entertainment to set up her own shop a while back. Things got pretty unpleasant over there. When it's time for Cangyue Calamity promotions, try to keep a low profile and stay silent. Don't get dragged into their conflicts."

"Sister Xuezheng really went independent..." Xiao He wasn't too worried, just a bit emotional. "Sister Liu, your guess back then was really spot on."

Yu Xuezheng was the female lead of Cangyue Calamity and also the top actress at Xingchen Entertainment. However, after a lot of messy things happened later, she gradually started getting "cozy" with Jiaxing Entertainment, seeming like she might jump ship.

But back then, Liu Rulan had said that Yu Xuezheng was probably using Jiaxing Entertainment as a stepping stone, planning to leverage it to leave Xingchen Entertainment and go solo. And indeed, that's what happened.

Yu Xuezheng really did successfully leave and set up her own business.

Furthermore, since the boss at Xingchen Entertainment had changed, the current person in charge, Tao Zidong, knew that Xingchen Entertainment hadn't shown Yu Xuezheng much favor in the past. It was only natural for her to want to leave and go solo. So, after failing to persuade her otherwise, he quite readily let her go.

Thus, to this day, Yu Xuezheng and her former agency, Xingchen Entertainment, still maintain a relatively peaceful and friendly relationship.

Only Jiaxing Entertainment, caught in the middle, became the clown, losing both the lady and the soldiers, failing to poach the talent after all.

This really infuriated the folks at Jiaxing.

So, a lot of the recent "turbulence" has been brewing from Jiaxing Entertainment's side.

However, considering that Jiaxing Entertainment also has a stake in Cangyue Calamity, and everyone still needs to make a wave of money from this big production, all parties have been relatively restrained, not directly tearing up with Yu Xuezheng.

Xiao He thought about it and felt a bit guilty.

It seemed, perhaps, if you traced it back to the root, he bore about half the responsibility for the current situation.

After all... *cough*... the other half responsible was already behind bars.

He nodded with insufficient confidence. "Alright, Sister Liu, I understand."
