“I got it. Leave the rest to me,” Guan Anhua said. He was even more convinced about and admired Luo Lingxing more.

If a teenager had this much awareness and thoughtfulness, then his future would surpass his imagination. He was looking forward to said future even more now.

When Yi Chenhao heard what he said, he was stunned. It took a while before he came back to his senses. He thought he was imagining things.

“I’m sorry. Can you repeat what you just said? I think I misheard,” Yi Chenhao said in a daze.

He had just finished his scene as an extra in ‘My Brother-in-Law’ and already got his pay for the day. When he came out, he was stopped by the man in front of him. The other party also invited him for some coffee at a nearby cafe, saying he had something to discuss with him.

He was actually nervous, because the person in front of him was none other than Luo Lingxing’s former agent, Chen Hongliang, who was also the current head of Jun Ling Studio. He didn’t know what the other party wanted to talk to him about, so he became very nervous as soon as he heard, thinking that he was having hallucinations.

“I’m curious to see if you have any interest in joining our Jun Ling Studio?”  Chen Hongliang patiently repeated again.

In fact, it was completely expectedly for the youth in front of him to have this reaction. After all, with his current position, there weren’t any agencies willing to sign with him.

It wasn’t to say that his appearance wasn’t good. On the contrary, his appearance was very good, but not having a system was an insurmountable gap in the eyes of others.

After listening to Luo Lingxing’s words that Guan Anhua had passed on, Chen Hongliang had also been shocked like Guan Anhua. But he understood Luo Lingxing’s a bit more than him. After all, he had watched Luo Lingxing go from the bottom to his current position step by step. It wasn’t easy for someone without a system to get to the position Luo Lingxing currently was at, but he had given those without a system hope. Hope to continue walking down the path inside the entertainment industry.

“Are you being serious?” Even though Yi Chenhao heard him say it twice, he still couldn’t believe it. After all… “But…I don’t have a system.”

Yi Chenhao really wanted to join Jun Ling Studio. Although this studio hadn’t been established long, many celebrities were vying to join it. For a studio like this to offer a contract with him, he found it really unbelievable.

However, this surprise didn’t make him confused. He was best aware of his own situation. He had a big limitation, or else he wouldn’t only be taking roles as extras right now. So it was hard for him to say out loud. It was very difficult and depressing, but he needed to be frank. He couldn’t hide this. It would come out eventually.

“I know, and so what?” Chen Hongliang said domineeringly.

He was very satisfied with Yi Chenhao’s honest character. Of course, he never doubted Luo Lingxing’s judgment of people before.

“I don’t have a celebrity system, which means that I won’t be able to obtain important roles in the future.” Yi Chenhao was very puzzled and surprised by Chen Hongliang’s reaction. There were people who wanted to sign him in the past, but as soon as they found out he didn’t have a celebrity system, the contract would disappear. The other party wouldn’t mention this matter again. This was the biggest pain inside his heart.

However, Chen Hongliang’s reaction was completely different from those people.

“Do you want to play important roles?” Chen Hongliang asked suddenly.

“Mn,” Yi Chenhao said very resolutely. Since he liked acting, how could he not want to play important roles?

“If you are given the opportunity, are you confident that you can play the important role without a system?” Chen Hongliang continued to ask.

There was a struggle behind Yi Chenhao’s gaze. He obviously hadn’t thought about this before, but now he had to think about it.

His gaze changed from the struggle and confusion and gradually became firm and said, “If there’s a chance, I definitely won’t let you down.”

“Good. Since you have confidence and are willing to work hard, then there’s no need to hesitate. The system is just a tool. What you really need is to have confidence in yourself. Luo Lingxing, the founder of Jun Ling Studio, everyone knows that he doesn’t have a system. But are his achievements worse than other newcomers? The most important thing is yourself.” Chen Hongliang frankly conveyed Luo Lingxing’s words to Yi Chenhao.

Although Chen Hongliang used Luo Lingxing to motivate this youngster in front of him, he knew there were other strange circumstances like Luo Lingxing in this world. After all, as long as he was given time, not a single newcomer would surpass him, but even the old celebrities might be left behind as well. With his skills, there was no need for a system.

Of course, he wouldn’t say this or else the confidence of the young man in front of him that had been aroused might disappear.

Yi Chenhao had naturally heard of Luo Lingxing’s achievements. He had regarded this person as his goal. Without him, he wouldn’t have been able to continue preserving. Now this person, who he considered his goal, was willing to give him a chance. A chance to move forward. So what reason did he have to give up?

“Okay, I’m willing to sign with the agency. Thank you for giving me the opportunity. I will definitely not let you down.” Yi Chenhao’s expression at this moment was even more determined.

It was on this day that a pillar of Jun Ling Studio was created, completely changing the monopoly of big-named celebrities in the entertainment industry with a celebrity system. This also gave hope to those who didn’t have a celebrity system but dreamed of becoming a “star”.

Until now, Jun Ling Studio had five artists and four agents. Among them Xia Yuan was engaged in music and the rest were all in TV and film.

Although there weren’t many artists, the quality wasn’t low. They were very confident in all their artists. Even if they were newcomers now, they would definitely shine in their own respective fields in the future.

“Brother Guan, you guide Yi Chenhao first. Then if there’s a suitable person, we’ll find a personal agent for him later,” Luo Lingxing said.

It was now time for the core members of Jun Ling Studio to have a meeting.

“Okay, I’ll pay attention to some candidates,” Guan Anhua happily agreed.

Now that Luo Lingxing was filming with the crew, he didn’t need to be by his side all the time. He could just let the assistant do the small things. And if an agent was needed, Xiao Ming could help too. During this period of time, he understood that Ye Luohan had a good relationship with Luo Lingxing, so Xiao Ming would consider Luo Lingxing regarding many things as well. So he  wasn’t worried.

“Although Yi Chenhao is no longer a newcomer in the entertainment industry, he’s only played extras in the past. His popularity isn’t high either. What we need to do now is find him some good roles as soon as possible to increase his popularity,” Guan Anhua suggested.

As soon as this agent took up his post, he began to dutifully think for the sake of his artist.

“Mn, but with his conditions, I’m afraid there will be very few crews who will want him. When Luoluo entered a crew and they were told he didn’t have a system, he was underestimated for a long time. As for Yi Chenhao, I’m afraid it will only be more difficult,” Chen Hongliang said worriedly. He remembered how Luo Lingxing had been underestimated back then very clearly. Although Luo Lingxing had proved them wrong, it was because Luo Lingxing had the strength to do so or else he wouldn’t have been able to block their mouths so easily and he might have been kicked out of the crew in the end.

And Yi Chenhao obviously couldn’t be on Luo Lingxing’s level. So his time in a crew would be difficult.

“This is indeed a problem. Although our studio doesn’t care about the system, the system is currently still mainstream, and those people out there care a lot about it. It will be difficult to pull in a good resource for him in a short period of time,” Xiao Ming said.

“Since others might not be willing to give him a chance, then we’ll create an opportunity ourselves,” Luo Lingxing said suddenly.

“You mean…we’ll make our own TV drama?” Everyone couldn’t help but look at Luo Lingxing.

“Why not?” Luo Lingxing thought it was normal. Their studio was now established and many areas were perfected. If it was just a TV drama, it shouldn’t be difficult for them.

“That is indeed a good method. If we choose to shoot one ourselves, we’ll be able to choose who we cast. But I’m afraid it won’t be easy to find investment. After all, we’re still a newly established studio, and the important role will be given to the newcomers in the studio. What investors value most is profit, so I’m afraid it will be even harder to attract them,” Guan Anhua said.

“You don’t have to worry about this. There is no shortage of funds.”

When everyone heard Luo Lingxing say this, they suddenly remembered that someone with a lot of money had suddenly invested one billion Yuan to ‘Supreme Duel Heros’. Moreover, ‘Supreme Duel Heros’ had been given free publicity because of some clowns. The high ratings were simply terrifying as well. Luo Lingxing’s original investment not only returned its capital, but he’d even made a lot of money as well.

Thinking this way, they really didn’t have to worry about the problem of funding.

“Now that the problem of funding has been solved, then the rest will be easy. I didn’t expect us to prepare our own TV drama so soon. It’s really exciting to think about,” Chen Hongliang said excitedly.

Not just Chen Hongliang, but the others were feeling the same as well. The studio hadn’t even been established for a year, and there were some internal personnel that hadn’t been recruited yet, but they were already preparing to film a TV drama. This was simply beyond the reach of many studios and entertainment companies.

Sigh…There was no other way. Who told them to have a boss with such deep pockets. The boss’ fiance was also an absolute tyrant. With such strong backing, they wouldn’t be able to run away from this no matter how fast they ran.

“Then it’s decided. I’ll have to trouble you to handle this, Brother Chen. If you don’t have enough manpower, tell me and I’ll transfer some to you,” Luo Lingxing said.

“No problem, just leave them to me. I won’t be polite,” Chen Hongliang said with a smile. He didn’t think Luo Lingxing was speaking without intent. He didn’t know where Luo Lingxing would transfer these people from, but they were simply amazing. One person could do the job of several. The studio wouldn’t have been able to scale so quickly without them.

When Yi Chenhao heard that the studio was about to start filming their own TV drama and that he would have an important role in the drama. It was like a dream.

Although Chen Hongliang had promised him that he would find good resources and roles for him, he hadn’t expected his words to be fulfilled so quickly.

Recently, a series of pies had fallen from the sky and had practically knocked him out. All the things he never thought were possible were coming true. It was as if he was living a dream.

However, he was very, very happy. He welcomed the pies to continue falling. He wasn’t afraid of being smashed. If this really were a dream, he hoped to never wake up from it.

He had been involved in the entertainment industry ever since he was fifteen. It had been five years now, but each of his roles were worse than the last. Each of them were extras. He was confused and hesitant, but in the end he persevered. Even if he didn’t have an agent, he would look for opportunities on his own. Even if he didn’t have the protection of an agency, he could only carry everything by himself. He never gave up, and fortunately he hadn’t or else he would have never encountered the people from Jun Ling Studio. He wouldn’t have gotten this amazing opportunity.

Sure enough, god favored those who persevered!
