Chapter 1374 : Nianyao and Mo Xicheng (47)
Apart from Song Cheng, Mo Xicheng’s manager had nearly been the most renowned manager in the industry.
He had had under him many top-tier celebrities, and countless Best Actors and Best Actresses.
Even now, there were many currently popular young artists under him.
But his favorite was still Mo Xicheng.
That was because among all the stars that he promoted, Mo Xicheng was one of the most diligent and hardworking. The man took his acting career like a proper full-time job. All these years, his acting skills had been improving steadily because he had no distractions. And where he was today was not too far behind Best Actor Shen.
One could say that this manager was in close competition with Song Cheng.
At this point of time, Best Actor Shen had already become a prominent veteran in the entertainment circle. So his manager wanted to train a person who could match Best Actor Shen.
Among all the artists he was managing now, only Mo Xicheng was promising enough.
Like it or not, one had to have some talent to be an actor.
Portraying beauty in front of the camera, in addition to his innate exquisite aura, coming from a wealthy family…
The reason Shen Liangchuan was an exceptional person in show business was because of his noble quality bestowed by the heavens.
That aura of his was not something that an ordinary person could just develop. One had to be brought up in a wealthy family in real life.
When surveying all the actors in the industry, besides Shen Liangchuan, the next in line would be Mo Xicheng.
But unfortunately, it was this sort of attention that caused Mo Xicheng to want to keep a low profile. After filming, even if he had nothing else to do, he wouldn’t take part in the publicity events, nor would he promote himself. This was why he had never made it big.
He had tried for many years to persuade Mo Xicheng, but the man had never been moved to progress any further.
And now, the man had proactively volunteered to go to publicity events. The manager was seeing him in a whole new light altogether.
His eyes lit up and his hand holding the cell phone trembled slightly. Because he could almost see a wildly successful Mo Xicheng before his eyes, shining like a star.
Almost immediately, the manager, An Shun, had a million plans in his head to make Mo Xicheng’s popularity sky-rocket over the internet.
He said, “You’ve just completed the filming of Ambition. Now everyone’s crazy about the on-screen couple, you and the female lead. I think if we can start a scandal—”
The female lead was also a well-known Best Actress in the circle, and coincidentally one of the artists under An Shun. It was a known strategy in the industry to pair actors up to promote them, this had been done countless times. Many unknown small-time actors were only taken notice of by the audience because they had somehow gotten involved with well-known celebrities.
After all, what did the Chinese people enjoy watching the most? Gossips!
As An Shun was considering this, Mo Xicheng said straight away, “No, you can’t do that.”
An Shun: …
“Anything but this.”
An Shun started to protest, “But—”
“There’s no but.” Mo Xicheng said after a pause, “I don’t like this way of doing things.”
An Shun knew Mo Xicheng only too well, and also knew his background. He contemplated it for a while and then said, “Very well then, I won’t force you. Let’s do this, since we can’t just change our style overnight, we still have to depend on our work to do the talking. Since you aren’t terribly busy lately, you take up advertisement jobs and I’ll look out for a suitable script for you. But from now on, let’s stop taking any tedious supporting roles. We’ll only accept lead roles!!”
