Chapter 337 - 282: Who is the Female Lead?

Chapter 337: Chapter 282: Who is the Female Lead?

"The voting and hot searches were out, officially signaling Wu Mu’s return to the top-tier level.

Although Wu Mu didn’t really care about these ranks and positions, his friends seemed to care quite a bit.

They all sent him congratulatory messages.

There were dozens of congratulatory messages in his WeChat, which he dealt with one by one.

Sun Yueqing sent him a video, the cover of which featured a man with a shiny, pot-lid haircut holding a flower basket.

He curiously clicked on it.

Then he watched as the pot-lid-haired man kept a deadpan expression, grabbed petals from the flower basket, tossing some to the left, some to the right:

"Congratulations to Brother Wumu for returning to the top, Brother Wumu is so awesome, Brother Wumu is so awesome!"

Wu Mu: "..."

Playing abstract, huh.

Sun Yueqing: "Happy? I spent over two hundred yuan for this on Taobao, and the guy is an Internet celebrity."

Wu Mu: "If you’d given me these two hundred yuan directly, I’d be happier, and I could record something for you too."

Sun Yueqing: "[Red Packet]"

Wu Mu clicked to receive, and sure enough, it was a two-hundred-yuan red packet. True to his word, he set up his phone on the table and started recording, "Congratulations to Sister Sun Yueqing for taking third place on the top-tier list, Sister Sun Yueqing is so awesome, Sister Sun Yueqing is so awesome!"

Clearly laughing herself sick, Sun Yueqing couldn’t even type and instead sent a voice message, "Hahaha, I’m going to save this video, and when you win a big award some time, I’ll play it on stage."

After laughing, she didn’t forget, "What kind of shoddy list is this, putting me behind you? Your Weibo followers aren’t even a fraction of mine! And who are you calling sister? I am a year younger than you!"

Wu Mu: "Then little sister Sun Yueqing it is. This shows that the people’s eyes are clear, and data generated by army of fans doesn’t have credibility."

Sun Yueqing: "Hmph, I’ll just let you bask in the glory for a couple days, and then when this hype dies down you’ll see just how formidable the old top-tier realm powerhouses can be! A short-sighted youngster from top-tier realm doesn’t know how high the sky is or how deep the earth is. There’s still a long way to go, with National Realm, Superstar Realm, Japan and South Korea Superstar Realm, Global Superstar Realm all waiting for you!"

Wu Mu laughed: "Are we in a fantasy novel now?"

Sun Yueqing: "Haha, I’ve recently taken a supporting role in a fantasy drama, so I’ve been devouring the original novel these past few days."

After replying to Sun Yueqing, Wu Mu continued to check messages from other friends.

Mo Mo also sent a video.

Could it be abstract play too?

Wu Mu clicked with curiosity.

Turns out, classmate Little Mo was much more serious.

As the video started, it showed Mo Mo herself, sitting in front of a piano, shyly waving at the camera:

"Congratulations to Teacher Wumu on returning to the top, here’s a song of blessings for Teacher Wumu."

After taking a deep breath, her fingers rested on the piano keys, slowly beginning to play: "The winds of time gently blow by, the story weaves through the eras. Those old songs, singing of our perseverance..."

Wu Mu listened quietly. The song’s lyrics were indeed blessed, but...

Wu Mu: "Lucky I left early, or I would definitely lose to Teacher Mo Mo. But why does the melody sound a bit melancholic?"

Just like the song "Let’s Row the Paddles" from Earth in his former life, the lyrics are beautiful, but the melody is sad.

Mo Mo replied instantly, "Teacher Wumu heard it wrong! Hehe, maybe my piano playing was not so good, I’ve only started learning from a teacher these past few days."

Heard it wrong?

How could you hear this so clearly wrong?

Wu Mu muttered in his mind, but seeing Mo Mo’s attempt to change the subject, he didn’t pursue it further, "Haha, no worries, we’re both equally matched."

After chatting with Mo Mo for a while, he continued to reply to others.

Lin Qingyue: "I need to be back by seven today, let’s dine together."

Lu Yao: "Xiao Wu is so awesome, Xiao Wu is so awesome!"

Su Meng: "Congratulations on advancing further in your career."

Yang Rongfa: "Thank you, Teacher Wumu, for the immense help to our drama series. Without Teacher Wumu, there’s no way we could have sold it for this price. Teacher Wumu truly deserves to return to the top tier."

Wu Mu replied to each one.

After responding to friends, there were also corporate matters to deal with.

The industry also seemed to take his return to the top tier very seriously; once the hot searches were out, a whole array of endorsement offers and program invitations arrived at his door.

And all the prices were significantly higher than before; his previous endorsement rate was around twenty-eight million for two years, now the starting offers consciously increased to thirty-five million.

The price for show appearances had gone up too; about three hundred and sixty thousand per episode.

Also, the TV drama and film projects that previously no one approached him for, all of a sudden popped up.

Several production companies handed him scripts generously offering money, with the highest bid being directly eighty million. Even though it was not quite "astonishing," it was still an astronomical sum.

But as for the quality of these scripts...

"Fire station chief Song He and emergency medicine doctor Xu Yuan reunite after ten years; the two from the era of youth were forced to separate due to family opposition, and upon meeting again, both have gone through much growth and change..."

A love story between a firefighter and an emergency medical doctor... sounds like a terrible drama at first glance!

Shaking his head, Wu Mu didn’t fear being criticized, but he didn’t want to ruin his reputation for nothing.

"Reject the TV and movie projects for now; I’ll look at them after I’m less busy," he reminded Shi Wu.

He was still planning to draw a good script and start his own project.

And right now, he didn’t have the time to take on these projects.

Lin Qingyue’s new movie was almost ready; they were about to start filming soon.

...

Three days after returning to the top-tier scene, Lin Qingyue’s film was finally ready to begin shooting."
