Chapter 962: Chapter 340: The Little Princess of the Two-Star Group, Born a Noble

In the entertainment industry, it’s no news that celebrities act arrogantly. Some stars use their fame to bully others, while some look down on others even before becoming well-known.

For instance, a female singer who participated in a talent show long ago insulted security personnel at the TV station. The guard only reminded her to cooperate during security checks, yet she called him a doorman, which led to the guard slapping her.

It’s important to know that provincial TV stations are government entities with security personnel who are not just anybody; they’re military members.

This talent show contestant who didn’t even make it to the top ten had the audacity to insult others, showing how some become arrogant once they gain some fame.

When Lee Soo-jung was at her peak, fans and reporters surrounded her wherever she went, requiring security or police escort.

As time has passed, these stars who lack representative works have aged, and the audience has lost interest, so it’s natural for her to be sidelined.

However, the fault lies in the program team accommodating all her conditions, making her believe she’s still popular in Dragon Country and can still make outrageous demands.

Moreover, it’s widely known that Korea’s entertainment industry is controlled by conglomerates, making these stars merely playthings of the conglomerates.

But because they are playthings for the conglomerates, sometimes they mistakenly believe they’re part of the conglomerates, relying on the conglomerates who sleep with them to help resolve issues, hence displaying arrogance by association.

Yet she brought this attitude to Dragon Country, wanting to use it against Yang Chen, which is entirely wrong.

Yang Chen was driving when Chairman Chen Wei from Bibi Group called him.

Chen Wei: "Merry Christmas, President Yang."

Yang Chen: "Merry Christmas! Why the sudden call, Chairman Chen?"

Chen Wei: "Here’s the thing. I just received a call from Beijing TV Station asking me to block your account. I refused, of course. Then I asked why they wanted your account blocked, and they said you offended two stars from Korea. Those two stars insist that you stop being an online car-hailing driver, or they won’t cooperate in filming the program. I thought about bringing this up with you so you can prepare for what’s next."

Yang Chen: "Haha... Thank you, Chairman Chen. I know what’s going on. Thanks a lot."

Chen Wei: "Haha... We’re on the same side, why say thanks? I hear President Yang is driving, so I won’t keep you. If you have time, come to Beijing, and we’ll have a meal together."

Yang Chen: "Alright."

Those two washed-up Korean stars are quite temperamental, demanding revenge if you don’t make way for them.

Beijing TV Station called Chen Wei, saying those two Korean stars will be filming a program there, right?

Yang Chen sent a message to Yang Zhen, asking her to immediately find out what program Beijing TV Station is using these two not-so-famous Korean female stars for.

Soon, Yang Zhen replied that Beijing TV Station and Penguin Video have jointly created a reality TV show, inviting female stars who were once famous but are now not so well-known or barely remembered.

Lee Soo-jung and Han Zaixiu are among the guests, with Lee Soo-jung predetermined to be the champion.

Yang Chen is helpless against Beijing TV Station, but he can command Penguin Video.

Yang Chen parked his car by the side and called Cheng Leyun, the vice president of Penguin Technology, who is responsible for Penguin Video.

The call connected quickly.

Cheng Leyun: "Haha... Hello, Mr. Yang. I’m surprised to receive a call from you."

Yang Chen: "Am I disturbing you?"

Cheng Leyun: "No, no, no, Mr. Yang, don’t misunderstand. My phone is on 24/7; you can call me anytime. We’re on the same side, no need for formalities."

Yang Chen: "Haha... You’re right, we’re on the same side, no need to differentiate. I heard Penguin Video teamed up with Beijing TV Station for a reality show featuring washed-up female stars singing and performing. Is that right?"

Cheng Leyun: "Yes! Do you have any thoughts, Mr. Yang?"

Yang Chen shared the issue with the Korean show’s stars with Cheng Leyun.

Cheng Leyun became furious and said, "How dare they? We invited her as a chance to regain popularity, but she thinks she’s still the face of her formerly explosive group. Mr. Yang, what would you like to do?"

Yang Chen: "Keep one, let the remaining one do a runner-up performance."

Cheng Leyun: "No problem! But that leaves us one guest short. Do you have any recommendations, Mr. Yang?"

Yang Chen: "From my side..."

At this moment, the song played from the nearby shop attracted Yang Chen’s attention.

"The first person I loved, his bad and his good, yet like a chest tattoo, a perpetual mark, following my breath until my heartbeat stops."

Hmm?

Yang Chen’s eyes lit up, isn’t this a song that was popular when he was in elementary school?

The singer seems to be Wang Tianxin; she used to be called the Sweetheart Leader back then.

However, she doesn’t seem to be popular anymore after more than a decade.

The streets used to be filled with her songs, especially "The First Person I Loved," that was a hit.

Maybe give her a chance to see if she can regain her popularity?

Yang Chen immediately said: "I suggest inviting Wang Tianxin as the missing guest."

Cheng Leyun: "Wang Tianxin? Who is that? I’ve never heard the name."

Yang Chen: "Haha... Tell the people below, they’ll surely know."

Cheng Leyun: "Great! We’ll proceed according to your suggestion, Mr. Yang."
