Friendly heads-up: entertainment industry, hilarious feel-good story, metaphysics
Blurb: As soon as the casting announcement for the female lead in a hugely anticipated IP comes out, fans everywhere erupt, and the internet is soon locked in a heated argument.
Fan A: “The female lead is definitely going to be our girl!”
Fan B: “No way. It’s definitely my goddess!”
Fan C: “Neither of you is right. It has to be our girl! She just won Best Actress on TV!”
“…”
Fans of a C-lister: “Could it possibly be our girl...?”
The first seventeen fan groups: “Keep dreaming! Your C-lister is just a pretty little green tea with nothing else going for her. Hilarious!”
Huo Bailan becomes famous, not for a breathtaking red-carpet look or her beauty, but because she gets the female lead in the biggest IP around!
And so...
Scandal after scandal about her hits the internet. People say she got the role by cozying up to someone powerful: one day she’s being kept, the next she’s calling someone her sugar daddy, then she’s a mistress, and after that a kept woman… The rumors get more and more outrageous, as if she’s slept with every powerful figure in the entertainment industry.
But the truth is------
A wealthy big shot: “Master Huo, is it okay to place this vase in my home here?”
An investor: “Will I lose money if I invest in this drama? Please advise me, Master Huo!”
A director: “Without you, this movie would probably have fallen apart!”
An award-winning actress: “Sister Huo, do you think I can win an international award for this role?”
An award-winning actor: “Teacher Huo, could you check whether the talisman I’m wearing still works?”
Huo Bailan…
She says she became famous for fortune-telling. Would anyone believe her...?
