During the process of conquest, different character strategies will stimulate varying levels of sensitivity based on their temperament, some positive and some negative. For the first conquest, a friendly reminder: sympathy levels do not fall under negative sensitivity and will not trigger any punishment plotline, so the host may rest assured.
Ye Bufan: "Even if you say it like that, how did the sense of pity come about? Does Gege appear as a delicate flower in Xiaoxu's eyes?!"
System: "No comment."
Ye Bufan: "...the system is so merciless."
System: ... Hmph.
The next day, when meeting with the investors, Xu Annan brought along a teenager. He was one of the new recruits in this edition of the company, named Lu Yu. He was a very slender and delicate young boy.
"Xiao Lu, don't be nervous, it's just a simple meeting, don't worry."
"En... En."
With his head down, Lu Yuchi stared at the tips of his own feet. A faint blush covered his fair cheeks, leaving one uncertain whether it was due to nervousness or embarrassment.
Xu Annan sighed in his heart: Lu Yu and Ye Bufan are simply two people from different worlds. Ye Bufan is confident and boastful (and then becomes arrogant and domineering), while Lu Yu is a typical introverted and restrained person. If such a child does not establish self-confidence, even if they are outstanding, it is unlikely for them to establish a foothold in the entertainment industry.
The role of Male Lead 2 offered by the investors indeed suits Ye Bufan better. Therefore, Xu Annan brought Lu Yu along not to compete for Male Lead 2, but for another role in the script that is relatively less prominent but more suitable for Lu Yu.
The investor this time is a young second-generation wealthy person. It is said that he is just doing it for fun. Xuan Annan expressed that we don't understand the world of the rich, but he is very curious about why the investor specifically requested Ye Bufan.
The rich second generation was indeed disappointed. "Bufan is truly talented. Just by looking at this character, I can tell it was tailor-made for him. I even rejected Sun Er," he said.
Xu Annan pondered for a moment before realizing that "Sun Erzhi" referred to the popular young actor, Sun Haoxuan, mentioned by the rich second generation.
The wealthy second generation's eyes shifted. "Moreover, Bufan is very suitable..."
Xu Anan's heart skipped a beat.
"Cough... Regarding the matter with Uncommon, I am truly sorry. I hope you can find a suitable role again."
"Thank you for your kind words." The rich second generation had a dejected look on his face, indicating that Ye Bufan's rejection had a significant impact on him.
"I have a newcomer here. Lu Yu, come over," Xu Annan pushed Lu Yu forward. "I heard that the script still hasn't determined the character of the protagonist's younger brother. I wonder what you think of Lu Yu?"
Lu Yu took a quick glance at the rich second generation and immediately lowered his head in a hurry. His ears turned red, and his whispered greetings were barely audible. Xu Annan just wanted to touch his forehead. To be honest, he didn't have much confidence in Lu Yu. This was completely different from Ye Bufan. However, he dared to give it a try because he had what seemed to be a golden opportunity.
However, the unexpected happened when the rich second generation's eyes lit up upon seeing Lu Yu.
It was like... the way a wolf, after starving for many days, would brighten up at the sight of food.
Xu Annan's heart jumped again.
The rich second generation looked at Xu Anan and said, "Would Bufan really not seriously consider it? The director this time is He Ning, and Han Zong has also invested. The female lead is the famous Mu Shu. Would he really not consider it? Have you tried persuading him?"
The sudden question caught Xu Annan off guard: "I...him..."
The rich second generation sighed softly and said, "Since Fanfan is so heartless, then forget it." Then, his gaze shifted and he eagerly grabbed Lu Yu's hand, saying, "Your name is Lu Yu, right? Come, come and sit over here, Xiao Yu."
Xu Anan: "......"
If Xu Annan still couldn't see anything by now, his reputation as a manager would be in vain.
He grabbed Lu Yu, one of the wealthy second generation's subordinates, wanting to have a serious discussion about the matter of roles, when suddenly the door was pushed open.
The following paragraph can be translated to English as: "Soon after came a voice filled with sarcasm."
"Xiao Xu didn't tell me that this script had such a powerful backing."
Xu Anan: Ah... I'm done for.
Above, is the suddenly despairing Xu's manager.
Ye Bufan spent a long time adapting to this body before finally falling asleep last night, only to dream that he died.
More accurately, it was a scene of dreaming about one's own death.
No one knows that the first thing Ye Daying, the famous actor, faced after returning home was being forced into a marriage by his parents. Ye Dafan, who had devoted ten years of his youth to the great revolutionary cause (crossed out) acting, had no idea what love was. Could anything be more enjoyable than acting? Therefore... no one knows that the seemingly suave Ye Yingdi is actually an innocent virgin who has never even had a one-night stand.
-You ask me why his kissing scenes are so good? You ask me, but who should I ask!
Ye Bufan, who had no reason to pursue a career, reluctantly embarked on the road of blind dates. Ye's mother had found many good young girls, but she did not expect that these girls were either brainless fans of Ye Bufan, Ye Bufan's true love fans, or fans who supported the potential relationship between Ye Bufan and someone else. In short, how could a storyline of a normal romance leading to marriage and having children be crafted with such a setting between the protagonist and his fans?!
The only achievement was that Ye Bufan's signature was truly... everywhere during that time, and the market price dropped significantly.
Over time, Ye Mu also realized the problem, so the next blind date became a mature (older than Ye Bufan) and steady (with a job related to the police) woman.
Ye Bufan:...
So, Ye Bufan escaped.
Then, he was hit by a car.
To be honest, when it comes to being hit by a car, the person involved only feels the instant pain upon hitting the ground, without any other sensations. Moreover, Ye Bufan was immediately transported into the intermediate space by the system after his death, so he didn't have any sense of déjà vu about dying.
And in the dream, he couldn't help but stand in front of himself, watching helplessly as the truck passed through his translucent body and collided with the unsuspecting Ye Bufan. He watched, as if in slow motion, as a parabolic trajectory of blood flowed out from his body and stained the pavement red. He watched himself helplessly close his eyes tightly.
Watching helplessly as the final teardrop rolled down, it vanished amidst a sea of glaring red.
Ye Bufan: ... So, I actually cried when I died?
