The Top-Tier Star's Agent Refuses to Bail Out the Poor

Geng Zhixia, the entertainment industry's ace agent.

A first-rate eye for talent, and first-rate ability.

No one she picks can fail to become famous, and no one under her care can go unprotected.

There's a saying in the industry: "Get into Tsinghua or Peking University through the college entrance exam, or make your debut with Geng Zhixia."

If Geng Zhixia picks you, you're already halfway to becoming a top-tier star.

Countless men and women came to recommend themselves, hoping their tragic stories would move the ace agent and persuade her to lower her standards.

Geng Zhixia: "I don't do charity."

Plenty of others offered themselves to her, hoping to secure long-term benefits.

Geng Zhixia: "Where did you get that kind of confidence?"

The many people she rejected slunk home and angrily wrote wish-fulfillment fiction to get revenge.

Transmigrate as Geng Zhixia's childhood friend and make her fall head over heels for me; Reborn, Geng Zhixia chases me to become a star; Rebirth: Become a superstar by standing on Agent Geng's shoulders...

Geng Zhixia opened her eyes and found herself in a world where several wish-fulfillment novels had merged.

In this world, she chased after her childhood friend, showering him with opportunities; gave her savings to a talentless performer to buy trending topics; and sacrificed her own reputation to pave the way for another talentless performer...

She had to make these people afraid even to dream of such things again, crushing their fantasies for good, before she could return to the real world.

Geng Zhixia raised an eyebrow.

Childhood friend: "Geng Zhixia, I've got my eye on Director Yu's movie. If you want me to forgive you, you'd better figure out what to do."

That movie looked good. It had the potential to be a hit.

Great, it's mine.

Geng Zhixia swept the area with her discerning eyes, then fixed her gaze on a scruffy young man selling roasted sweet potatoes. "Interested in acting?"

Later, Nian Lianyun became an overnight sensation nationwide with a single film. Fans and industry insiders alike called him a treasure from heaven, saying his astonishing talent was hidden beneath his rough exterior.

Asked how he had entered the acting industry, Nian Lianyun gave a solemn thank-you. "I owe it all to Agent Geng. Without her, I'd still be selling sweet potatoes."

Childhood friend: "That was my role! I was the one who was supposed to become a star!"

Geng Zhixia: "Can a pig carve wood? Do you have any idea of your own limits? Come on, look at your acting, then look at his. Can you see the difference between a person and an animal?"

Talentless Performer No. 1: "With my talent, all I need is one tiny opportunity and I'll be famous worldwide! That role in Director Niu's movie is barely good enough for me. Get it for me. Then buy a few trending topics about famous directors casting me and my acting talent to build some buzz. You're paying."

Geng Zhixia rolled her eyes, spotted a promising young woman, and strode over with a cool air. "I've got a great fifth female role. Interested in taking a look?"

As it turned out, the young woman won that year's Golden Dove Award for Best Supporting Actress with a role that had barely any lines, and went on to become a huge star.

The young woman teared up with joy as she accepted the award. "I owe everything I have now to Agent Geng. She chose an ordinary girl like me and kept encouraging me, telling me I had talent and ability. I was able to keep going because of her support and help. I want to keep acting under Agent Geng forever!"

Geng Zhixia used the same words to mock Talentless Performer No. 1: "Give her one tiny opportunity, and she becomes famous worldwide. No trending topics, no manufactured buzz. Tsk, impressive."

Talentless Performer No. 2 constantly played the victim in subtle ways. The original Geng Zhixia was moved to tears by his sob story and personally helped him build his reputation.

He acted like a diva.

The original Geng Zhixia would post an explanation: "He's a very polite performer. He only snapped at the staff because I scolded him that day."

His acting was horrendous, and his movies were box-office poison.

Geng Zhixia would still defend him: "This film's director wasn't right for him and failed to bring out his strengths. We can't overlook his undiscovered talent or his hard work."

After transmigrating into the book, Geng Zhixia calmly said, "What's your strong point? Having a more empty head than everyone else, or having more confidence than everyone else? You've got no talent, but your temper's bigger than the heavens. Why don't you just fly up there?"

After Geng Zhixia ended her contracts with them, all the directors who'd been friendly to those talentless performers because of her began to drop them, clutching their chests with relief.

"Thank goodness she terminated the contract. Otherwise, I'd still be waiting for that little brat to come to his senses. I couldn't bring myself to give up on him because I didn't want to damage Geng Zhixia's reputation as a golden finger. After all, she was the one who picked him. But if I kept working with him, I'd be stuck with a block of wood that might never blossom."

"If Geng Zhixia chooses someone, I'll fight to hire them for my movies. Every one of them becomes a hit. But this little brat must have been someone she chose while half-asleep, right? He's terrible."

The scripts and ads dried up. The once-confident talentless performers were furious and took to the internet to make thinly veiled attacks, accusing Geng Zhixia of looking down on people.

Their fans: "Be good and bring Sister Geng tea and water, then apologize and ask her to forgive you! We can't afford to offend her."

Their rivals' fans: "Hahahaha, I've been jealous of these people forever. Terminating those contracts was great! Why did such useless people get signed by Sister Geng when our idols didn't?"

"No, I'm still so mad. At least those losers got signed by Sister Geng once. I'm so jealous I'm splitting apart at the cellular level! And now they have the nerve to act ungrateful?"

Onlookers: "Forget those few. Isn't it better to watch Sister Geng and her superstar squad?"

In the entertainment industry, Geng Zhixia isn't a star, yet she gets more attention than the stars.

Under her guidance, this era shines with a multitude of stars.
