238 I Don’t Want to be Famous

Cheng Yang had been a talent manager for years.

He had never managed Qiao Ze, but they used to work in the same company. He left his previous company because of his boss then, and he’s working on his own now.

He hadn’t come to the Qiao residence today for Qiao Ze, but for Qiao Yue.

Someone had uploaded a video of Qiao Yue’s sword dance to a video-sharing website today.

In just an hour, it had made it to the trending list. Someone had even given the video a hashtag: #AttractiveSwordDancingGirl.

This hashtag had a high social media reach. Soon, the video and hashtag had garnered more than a million interactions.

When Qiao Yue was helping Hong Ning seek justice in school, she had become a small celebrity on the video-sharing website.

Cheng Yang had nurtured many artistes who started off as internet sensations.

He wanted to take Qiao Yue through the same route now.

After all, Qiao Yue’s sword dance solo was so popular now. If she rode on this wave and went on some reality or variety show, she could be famous instantly.

Qiao Yue didn’t expect to be famous suddenly. She turned on her phone and checked her social media apps.

Her social media accounts had not been revealed yet, but her chat group with the organization had exploded. People from KA had even sent her a video.

“That’s amazing. How are you famous now after attending school?”

“Yeah, why did boss appear in a school performance? And in drag?”

“You don’t say. Boss, you looked really good dressed up as a girl. Do you have a sister? I would like to date your sister!”

Qiao Yue clicked on the video. It was shot in the school auditorium. There was no first act of her class performance, only Qiao Yue’s solo dance.

The person who shot it was quite skilled. He had steady hands. Although Qiao Yue’s movements were swift, his camera followed her very quickly.

Qiao Yue frowned. From the angle of the shot, she could roughly guess where the person sat in the auditorium.

Cheng Yang looked at Qiao Yue and asked, “You really wouldn’t consider becoming an artiste? Your looks and sword-dancing skills are very good. You’ll have a bright future whether you’re become a singer or an actor.”

Qiao Yue finally understood why the artistes these days were so incompetent.

Most of them started off as internet sensations without knowing how to sing, dance, or act. What was this manager thinking? He actually wanted her to act, dance, and sing?

“I don’t really know how to do those things.” Qiao Yue said to Cheng Yang. “As you can see, I only went on stage to help out my classmate. I am even of a different gender from the video.”

“That’s a non-issue. They’ll be even more excited when they know that you’re a boy.” Cheng Yang’s eyes were filled with excitement.

Nowadays, there were too many artistes who looked the same. Those with androgynous faces like Qiao Yue’s were the most popular.

Cheng Yang felt that Qiao Yue could even take the cross-dressing route.

Qiao Jing, who was listening to their conversation, felt as if cartoonish black lines were about to fall off his head.

Qiao Yue was a real girl.

Qiao Xin looked at Qiao Yue jealously, but she still had to pretend that she didn’t care. “Yeah, you should be so lucky that a manager is willing to take you under his wing. Qiao Yue, it isn’t so bad to be even a small-time artiste. You might be able to earn more than you could ever earn in your lifetime back in Nanshan Village.”

Qiao Li also looked at Qiao Yue. He thought that it would be great if Qiao Yue became an artiste.

Being an artiste would take up a lot of Qiao Yue’s time and energy, leaving him no time to care about what happened at home. Then, they wouldn’t need to share the Qiao family assets with Qiao Yue.

“This is a really good opportunity. Your video has a million views, so we just need to package you a little. You don’t really need to be a good actor like Qiao Ze to become an artiste. You can also succeed if you are good at generating publicity.”

Qiao Yue frowned. She was totally not interested in the entertainment industry. Cheng Yang’s words also confused her.

When had it become possible that one could be an artiste as long as they are good at generating publicity? Without any real artistic skills?

Qiao Yue shook her head under everyone’s gaze. She didn’t want to be famous like this, nor did she want to be an artiste.

Cheng Yang tried to convince her again. “Mr. Qiao Yue, please reconsider this. Why don’t you try it out with a minor role in Qiao Ze’s movie?”
