Chapter 786 - 389: Chen Jincheng’s Brazen Embrace on Both Sides

Chapter 786: Chapter 389: Chen Jincheng’s Brazen Embrace on Both Sides

Chen Jincheng hung up the phone and let out a sigh of relief. He hadn’t thought about *Raging Storm* before, but now that he saw Sister Hehe had secured the actors for the Gao Qiqiang siblings, he knew he had to produce this show no matter what.

*Raging Storm* was absolutely an era-defining drama in his past life.

If you were to say that the entertainment industry in his past life had many era-defining hit dramas from 2010 to 2018, then from 2018 to 2025, there was absolutely only one: *Raging Storm*.

Even the much-hyped *Joyful Years 1*, with an average of 100 million views per episode, only barely reached half of *Raging Storm*’s viewership.

Rumor had it that this single drama brought iQiyi 5 billion in revenue. Because it was an iQiyi original production, all the revenue went directly to them. It led to 25 million new subscribers for iQiyi, bringing their total subscriber count to 150 million for the first time and allowing them to once again surpass Penguin Film and Television.

Therefore, he absolutely could not miss out on this drama.

However, there were many restrictions on filming a drama with this kind of subject matter. In his past life, it almost didn’t get made for a variety of reasons.

That was a problem he would have to solve.

He immediately thought of Central Mother.

After collaborating with them on *Huaxia in the Classics*, he could bring Central Mother in as a co-investor.

After all, Central Mother needed some successful projects under its belt too.

The prerequisite, however, was that he first needed to demonstrate enough prowess in the film and television industry to convince Central Mother.

’So, this time, I have to really stick it to iQiyi and Penguin Film and Television.’

As for Sister Hehe, she was suddenly overcome with a feeling of pure happiness.

Seeing him hang up, she excitedly hugged his arm. "Chen Jincheng, you’re the best."

"How am I the best?" Chen Jincheng said teasingly.

"Hmph!" Sister Hehe snorted lightly at him, then surprisingly turned to Long Ni and said, "Let me tell you, this Chen Jincheng might be a bit of a womanizer, but he’s a genuinely good person. When he decides to treat you well, he does it wholeheartedly and never asks for anything in return."

"Take just now, for example. I clearly messed up, using his name to make empty promises, but he didn’t blame me at all. Instead, the first thing he did was back me up. This *Raging Storm* of his is definitely going to be a major production for Zhang Songwen. He’s helping me fulfill my promise."

"Honestly, a man like him is so captivating and likable, even if you aren’t officially in a relationship with him."

"Aside from being a womanizer, he’s perfect in every other way."

Long Ni naturally knew about this Mr. Chen’s online reputation. According to what her boss was saying, he really was an excellent person. But why was her boss telling her all this?

’This is weird.’

’I’m just so envious of Zhang Songwen. He’s about to be the male lead in a major production.’

’If this show becomes a hit, he’ll have finally made a name for himself.’

’I wonder if I’ll get a chance to be in *Raging Storm*.’

Chen Jincheng then took Sister Hehe and Ximeng to lunch. Afterward, he received a notification from Midday Sunshine that the premiere would start at 2:30 PM.

While resting at the hotel, he received a call from Sun Ji, who delivered a surprising piece of news: "Boss, our people went to investigate. There’s no novel called *Raging Storm* at all. Could it be under a different name?"

Chen Jincheng was stunned when he heard this.

’It doesn’t exist?’

He genuinely didn’t know. He wasn’t sure if the novel simply hadn’t been written yet, or if it didn’t exist in this world at all.

’In that case, if he wanted to film *Raging Storm*, wouldn’t he have to write the script himself from memory?’

Fortunately, in his past life, this was the only show he had watched from beginning to end.

Plus, the 400 Constitution Points that had modified his body, giving him a physique at the peak of human limits, had also enhanced his memory. He should be able to transcribe it.

Even if he couldn’t remember some of the details, the main storyline would remain intact. Filling in the gaps and fleshing it out shouldn’t be a problem.

Besides, in his past life, many people had said that large parts of *Raging Storm* were filmed too subtly, too restrained. If he could get Central Mother to co-produce, he wouldn’t have as many restrictions.

Central Mother would take care of it.

’It’s just that transcribing it and writing the script will take a lot of time and energy.’

In the afternoon, as 2:30 arrived, the venue for the *All is Well* premiere was incredibly bustling. Reporters of all statures, as well as news media bloggers from Tiao Yin, had all rushed over.

After all, today’s premiere was no less than a small film festival. Not only was the hype immense, but many celebrities had also been invited.

Many reporters were already frantically taking pictures of the celebrities walking the red carpet.

Just then, a wave of excited cries erupted, because a heavyweight celebrity had emerged.

Brother Hu Qian, the actor who played the protagonist in *Langya List*. He was a male celebrity famed for having more male fans than female fans, and his appearance immediately drew the reporters’ attention.

After that, several more celebrities walked the red carpet, all of whom had worked with Midday Sunshine before.

At that very moment, someone suddenly shouted, "Chen Jincheng is here!"

Instantly, every reporter whipped their heads in that direction.

The atmosphere at the venue reached a fever pitch, far surpassing the excitement for Brother Hu Qian just moments ago.

’An internet celebrity like Chen Jincheng was getting a bigger reception than an A-list star?’

Indeed, that was the case.

Besides, at this point, no one considered Chen Jincheng to be just another internet celebrity anymore.

Even if he was an influencer, he was an investor-class influencer. At the very least, within the influencer and entertainment circles, he was considered a major figure by any standard.

As Chen Jincheng stepped onto the red carpet, all the reporters began snapping photos frantically. He had his left arm around a beautiful woman in a tight, black secretary-style outfit, while his right arm was held by another beauty in a sophisticated, white spaghetti-strap gown.

Following behind them was yet another beautiful woman, dressed in a sheer blouse and a short skirt.

This was him, brazenly showing off with a woman on each arm!

Fewer and fewer people were surprised by Chen Jincheng showing up to red carpets with beautiful women. It was becoming a common sight to see him surrounded by them.
