You're licking the wrong thing, confront the reporter head-on!

Chapter 139 You're licking the wrong thing, confront the reporter head-on!

He Xi really wanted to ask the editor-in-chief, Lin, a question in front of her.

What are some of the representative works of Ni Zhen, the talented man you mentioned?

Don't even mention that sequel to Young Wesley, "The Paradise," which he and his father co-wrote.

Nobody knows how many words Ni Zhen wrote on that thing.

Moreover, the Wesley series is more famous than it is actually good. Calling it a mess might be an exaggeration, but it really can't compare to Jin Yong's martial arts novels.

There's no need for any imitations or side stories.

If publishing a magazine, writing about celebrity gossip, and fabricating some risqué stories can be considered a talent, then...

So, can Lin Guoguang, the founder of the adult magazine "Dragon Tiger Leopard", also be called a talented man?

He Xi did not argue with Editor-in-Chief Lin.

However, with the other party's approval, the publication and promotion of "Zhu Xian" naturally went without any problems.

After exchanging information such as the novel's plot outline, development, length, and word count, etc.

Editor-in-Chief Lin directly offered a price of 200 yuan per thousand words, and even offered it proactively.

"Our idea is to start serializing the novel about a week before the release of 'Sex Is Zero', and to promote the movie for you in the newspapers for free."

"However, we have one condition."

"【Zhu Xian】must be completed on time; submissions cannot be delayed."

"And if you have any new book plans in the future, please consider Ming Pao first!"

"What do you think?"

Editor-in-Chief Lam was brought in by the new boss of Ming Pao. He really wanted to improve the newspaper, so he offered very generous terms.

He Xi had no reason to refuse.

The original version of "Zhu Xian" has over 150 million words.

He earns 200 yuan per thousand words, and he can make 30 yuan just from royalties.

It also saved the advertising costs of having "Form Is Emptiness" published in Ming Pao.

That's killing two birds with one stone!

As for missing deadlines, he writes casually in his spare time, and can write tens of thousands of words a day, so there is absolutely no possibility of missing deadlines.

Moreover, given the excellent service provided by Ming Pao this time, future cooperation is inevitable.

He couldn't think of a reason to refuse to cooperate.

"It's settled then!"

After finishing the novel's publication, He Xi went to the recording studio to record the final few songs.

At the same time, Vivian Chow's new album, "Next Stop, Queen of Pop," also began its promotional tour.

On her way home from the recording studio, He Xi hailed a taxi.

He recently went to the mainland and gave his car to Huo Wenxi to drive; he hasn't brought it back yet.

The voice of Vivian Chow happened to be coming from the car's tape recorder.

"Hello everyone, I'm your old friend Vivian."

"It's a pleasure to meet everyone again in this familiar place, RTHK Island Radio 2."

"Next, I'll be sharing a song from my new album, 'Next Stop, Superstar,' called 'Good Hearted Breakup.'"

"The lyrics, music, and arrangement were all done by Mr. He Xi!"

"I hope you all like it!"

"Huh! Vivian released a new album so soon?"

The taxi driver didn't recognize He Xi, who was wearing a hat and mask in the back seat. Upon hearing the voice from the tape recorder, he immediately exclaimed in surprise.

"Next Stop, Superstar? Why such a name? Do big stars take the bus? But Vivian shouldn't live in Superstar City, right?"

"Lyrics, composition, arrangement—He Xi? That name—could it be her boyfriend, Xi Zai?"

"That action movie actor can write songs? What kind of good songs could he possibly write?"

"Is this one of those lullabies you use to put kids to sleep?"

The driver's rambling complaints satisfied He Xi's stereotype of this group as being talkative.

As for his questioning, He Xi said she was used to it.

Time will give everyone the answer; he just needs to let the song fly a little longer.

"They kindly let me go early on, but starting over has been so difficult —"

As Vivian Chow's singing began, the driver's complaints gradually subsided.

In the end, it all turned into a feeling of deep emotion and agreement.

"It sounds amazing! It sounds so good!"

"Vivian sang so well, and—the lyrics are so beautifully written!"

"If I had heard this song sooner, maybe I would have broken up sooner, and then I wouldn't have had to—"

As he spoke, the driver couldn't help but sob.

"You don't know, I used to like a woman. I pursued her for three years, and I was willing to go through fire and water for her. But what I got in return was that He Xi understood instantly."

This driver is also a backup option with a story.

All he could do was silently offer a tissue and a word of encouragement.

"Why don't you persevere a little longer? Maybe you'll just lick—uh, actually win them over?"

The driver turned his head with a hopeful look in his eyes.

Is it really possible?

"certainly----"

No!

Just by looking at his face, you can tell this driver has no chance.

Unless the other party has had their fun, is hurt, and then asks him to take over.

After three years of relentless pursuit and still failing to win her over, I might as well just give up!

There's no place for you in her heart!

I just like the feeling of being licked by you.

Unfortunately, you're licking in the wrong direction, and you'll never reach the real spot!

As Vivian Chow began promoting her song, "Good Hearted Breakup" quickly became a common soundtrack in the streets and alleys of Hong Kong Island.

On various song request platforms, the number of plays for "Good Hearted Breakup" has also begun to rise steadily.

It quickly rose to the top of various lists.

Listeners and fans also participated in the discussion.

Aside from praising the song's beauty, the most discussed topic was the lyricist and composer, He Xi.

They simply couldn't believe that He Xi could write songs.

It sounds like Zhang Fei embroidering flowers—a complete fantasy.

However, as Zhou Huimin's fans, and loyal supporters who firmly believe she doesn't poop, they are unwilling to doubt Zhou Huimin's words.

I'm really torn.

At the same time, the promotion of "Form is Emptiness" also began.

At the press conference, a reporter directly approached the reporter's face and made a loud noise.

"Xi-zai, some people say that the songs you wrote for Vivian, as well as the screenwriting and directing work for this movie, were all done by ghostwriters."

Why would you do something so self-deceiving?

"Is it to compete with someone?"

He Xi's smile gradually faded, and she frowned as she looked at the reporter who had just left, whose microphone had a "yes!" logo on it.

"This reporter, some people say that you took bribes to fabricate false reports about me and [Jinxi Entertainment]."

"Do you think what you're doing is worthy of your professional ethics and the public's trust?"

"Or do you think that being a journalist doesn't require respecting the truth, and that as long as you have a photograph, the rest of the content can be made up?"

"Or perhaps, this is just your style at [yes!]—regardless of the truth, simply fabricating news to fool readers?"

"With such a vivid imagination, why not skip news reporting and just start writing novels!"

"Perfect timing, I recently wrote a novel that will be published in Ming Pao soon."

"Welcome to all of you who said 'yes!', to learn how to write stories!"

"Everyone!"
