Chu Zhengfei gestured for Chen Che to sit down. After all, she was no longer at the age of a fanatical fan, let alone as the chief planner.

Chu Zhengfei retracted her happy smile and said apologetically, “We spoke over the phone last night. I thought about it and realized that it might not be appropriate…”

Chen Che said softly, “It’s okay. Since I’m already here.”

Chen Che paused and stopped responding. Instead, he sized up his surroundings curiously. “Isn’t this a variety show on Lemon TV? Why is it filming in the capital?”

If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have gone back yesterday.

How torturous.

Chu Zhengfei explained, “It’s mainly because everyone is at the stage of choosing a tour guide. Moreover, if we want to go to an overseas tourist destination next, we have to set off from the Imperial Capital International Airport, so it’s more convenient to film in the Imperial Capital. Most of the other permanent members’ homes are also in the Imperial Capital.”

…..

Chen Che was enlightened and asked, “Then what should we do now… Do we have a script? What do I need to do specifically?”

Chu Zhengfei thought for a moment and said to Chen Che, “Chen Che, your home isn’t in the capital, right?”

Chen Che nodded. “I moved to the south a long time ago and have been living near Shanghai. The company is also there.”

Chu Zhengfei nodded and gestured to her assistant beside her. “Go to the hotel and get a room for Chen Che. Then get the film crew to start decorating the scene.”

The assistant left. Chu Zhengfei looked at Chen Che and smiled. “Then let’s wait for a while.”

Chen Che did not say anything else. Chu Zhengfei ordered some more drinks and the two of them sat down to chat and wait.

Although he secretly complained that he should have gone back if he had known earlier, but if he really didn’t go back, he wouldn’t have received so many suggestions from the director.

Chen Che’s thoughts were a little chaotic. He had never planned so far into the future.

However, these words left a deep impression in his heart.

The filming of television dramas was too long and it was difficult to gain attention during filming.

Now that his so-called “talent” had been recognized to a certain extent, he also needed variety shows to change the current situation and turn things around.

He was indeed influenced by the director and was more inclined to participate in variety shows.

More importantly, in his previous life, he had always missed opportunities.

At that time, he was engrossed in writing. He should have been focused on Chinese entertainment, but he was obsessed with Korean media.

When there were more and more restrictions in Chinese entertainment, he insisted on taking the risk until his life was in trouble. In the end, he died under the truck.

After being reborn, he vowed not to follow the flow and not miss the footsteps of the past.

Those days were painful for everyone who thought highly of themselves.

No matter how good a film or television drama was, it was still the process of a newcomer replacing an old person.

However, variety shows had a lot of room for development.

From his previous life until now, it seemed that variety shows had yet to break away from imitation.

How many of the abnormally popular programs were really original?

He would rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. He could not let down his mission as a transmigrator.

Since he had come to this world, he had to become the overlord of a certain domain. Even if he did not have many cheats, he had to choose the path with the highest possibility of success.

Therefore, Chen Che was also pondering.

He often warned himself to look ahead and not think too far ahead.

However, he could not control his thoughts.

He couldn’t help but think about how to walk the future.

Admittedly, his desire to perform was not as strong.

But he had unknowingly fallen in love with variety shows.

What kind of feeling was that?

In drama, no matter how well you act, you will always play someone else and not yourself.

Although variety shows had plots and scripts, they acted out their true identities.

Perhaps this was the real test of acting skills.

Most importantly… in variety shows, one could sing, dance, act, write scripts, and even be the chief producer?

Haha, but it was still too early to think about this.

“Chen Che?”

Suddenly, there was a summoning sound. Chen Che quickly came back to his senses and apologized to Chu Zhengfei. “I’m sorry, I was thinking about how to get involved i the show and was in a daze.”

“Oh right.” Chu Zhengfei did not mind. Instead, she asked curiously, “On the phone just now, did you say that you were recording a show?”

Chen Che put down his drink. “Yes, ‘Sweet Love’ is over now.”

Chu Zhengfei’s eyes flickered with a smile. “No wonder you’re so confident that you dare to accept this job.”

Chen Che paused for a moment and stood up politely. “I think Planner Chu might still have some reservations about me. I won’t disturb you anymore…” “Haha.”

Chu Zhengfei waved her hand and gestured for him to sit down. Chen Che also smiled easily and sat back down.

The atmosphere suddenly lightened. “What a cheerful and humorous man.”

Chu Zhengfei seemed to be reassessing Chen Che and said, “His image is very good and he’s not old, but…”

Since they were not familiar with each other, she did not continue.

Chen Che tried his best to avoid mentioning the past..
