Chinese Showbiz: I Picked Up Bai Lu from the Start, So Stop Trying to One-Up Me

Reborn in 2015 as the top student in the directing program at Yanjing Drama Academy, Gu Yuan is worrying about how to fund his graduation project. On the subway, he accidentally “finds” a future A-list actress! Seeing the girl in front of him teetering from low blood sugar, Gu Yuan kindly reaches out to steady her. Bai Lu: “Classmate, you… stop pressing against me…” Gu Yuan: “???” And so the story of a god-tier director and a future queen of the entertainment industry begins with an utterly mortifying moment. While others are going gray worrying about raising investment, Gu Yuan has already gone viral across the internet with a low-budget short film and earned his first fortune! While famous directors compete for the biggest stars, the future national sweetheart, fairy-like beauty, cheongsam goddess, and more have already signed with Gu Yuan’s company! Years later, a reporter asks Gu Yuan, who now stands at the pinnacle of the world, “What’s the secret to your success?” Gu Yuan smiles. “Maybe it started with learning how to catch someone before they fell.”
