Chapter 314 - 163: Sea Fishing Dinged

Chapter 314: Chapter 163: Sea Fishing Dinged

"We’ve still got a while before we get to the fishing spot. Let’s use the time to discuss the script."

Tang Tianyu said with a smile to the video platform executive.

"So she’s Chen Mo’s girlfriend. In that case, we’ll definitely have to tailor-make a script for her."

Upon hearing this, Old Zhang immediately gave Chen Mo a friendly smile.

He had also seen Wei Luyao’s resume and felt they could build the show around her, creating a "Legally Blonde" persona to break into the mainstream and boost the show’s popularity and ratings.

Now that he knew she was Chen Mo’s girlfriend, that settled it.

"What’s more, Lawyer Zhao from Chengli is a senior of Chen Mo’s. With him on board, the script will be even easier to manage."

Tang Tianyu shared another piece of news with Old Zhang.

"That settles it."

Old Zhang took a sip of wine. ’The supervising lawyers are all connected to Chen Mo. This script is going to be ridiculously easy.’

"Also, I’ll arrange for a celebrity to be a guest in the observation room. They can verbally guide the conversation to give the audience a better impression of her."

Tang Tianyu added, turning to Chen Mo.

"Thanks, Brother Tang."

Chen Mo raised his wine glass and clinked it against Tang Tianyu’s with a smile.

’He knew a little about this sort of thing. For these observational reality shows, the commentary from the guests in the observation room was key.’

’Often, a single comment from a guest in the observation room could get a non-celebrity intern cyberbullied or, conversely, make them a fan favorite.’

’Now, with a tailor-made script, the supervising lawyers on her side, and help from the guests in the observation room... Chen Mo couldn’t imagine any way Wei Luyao wouldn’t shine on the show.’

The actress at his side, who had been pouring his wine and feeding him fruit, couldn’t hide her envy when she heard them finalize a plan to make someone famous amidst their casual laughter. It showed plainly on her still-mostly-original face.

’Minor starlets like her, with no connections or resources, had to willingly attend to these tycoons just for a chance at a few scraps.’

’But for Chen Mo’s girlfriend, these same tycoons were taking the initiative to help him make her famous.’

’It could only be fate.’

’Some people are born lucky, others are born to struggle.’

Drinking and chatting on the boat, time passed quickly.

In what felt like no time, the luxury yacht arrived at a fishing ground teeming with saltwater fish.

"Chen Mo, this rod is for you. Change into these clothes."

Tang Tianyu handed him a sea-fishing rod and a brand-new set of casual clothes.

"Thanks."

Chen Mo took them and went to a cabin on the yacht to change.

Afterward, they each found a spot and started fishing.

The actress, naturally, stayed by Chen Mo’s side, chatting with him and feeding him fruit and snacks.

"Mr. Chen, what industry are you in?"

The actress scooted closer, lightly pressing her body against his and linking her arm intimately through his as she asked with a curious expression.

’Chen Mo was so much younger than the other three men, yet he was sitting with them as an equal. It meant they were all in the same social circle.’

"I’m in finance."

Chen Mo said casually.

"You’re so young and accomplished. Since you’re so close with President Tang, have you ever thought about getting into the entertainment industry?"

She playfully rubbed her sculpted chest against Chen Mo’s arm as she smiled and fed him a blueberry.

Her words actually made Chen Mo pause and think for a moment.

’With his unique constitution, he might actually be able to make a splash in the entertainment industry.’

’He could find some random director, invest in a movie...’

’And maybe it would activate his constitution and become a massive hit?’

"We’ll see."

Although he had the thought, he just shook his head and didn’t say anything more.

Seeing Chen Mo wasn’t interested, she said no more.

’She didn’t want to annoy Chen Mo and have him mention it to Tang Tianyu.’

’If that happened, she’d be in deep trouble. Not only would she miss out on the opportunities she was angling for, but she’d probably lose the ones she already had.’

’After that, she’d be a complete nobody in the industry.’

After fishing for a while, Chen Mo still hadn’t gotten a single bite.

Chen Mo had already reeled in his line several times, but he just wasn’t catching anything.

Meanwhile, he could hear Tang Tianyu and the other two frequently and happily bragging about the fish they were catching.

"Chen Mo, you’re not doing so hot! Looks like you’re getting skunked today, haha."

Tang Tianyu came over for a look. Seeing the bucket next to Chen Mo was completely empty without a single fish, he started to laugh at him.

Hearing this, Chen Mo gave a helpless shrug.

’Not having his new-energy fishing rod was a major nerf for him.’

DING!

Just then, a familiar notification sound suddenly rang in his mind.

Hearing the notification, Chen Mo froze for a second.

’Can getting skunked while sea fishing also trigger a DING!?’

’Logically, he was definitely having some bad luck. In a place this teeming with fish, he somehow couldn’t catch a single one.’

’So, activating his constitution wasn’t a total surprise.’

’He just wondered what kind of lucky reversal was about to happen out here on the vast, open sea.’
