My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 545

Chapter 545 Even A Pig Can Be Famous

Ning Ran couldn’t speak frankly, as she was worried that Nan Chen would object.

She felt as if her concerns might make her come off as being narcissistic.

After all, Nan Chen might not even be bothered by them strutting down the red carpet together.

Nevertheless, given how experienced Wang Xiaoou was, she quickly saw through Ning Ran’s hesitation.

“Even though we have yet to report this matter to Mr. Chen, I don’t see him objecting to this. Huang Zichao is an international megastar. Considering our current reputation, you would gain a lot by being his companion on the red carpet.”

Pausing for a moment, she then continued, “By doing so, all the fashion magazines and online media will publish photos of both of you together. After all, it’s not like they can edit you away just to have Huang Zichao in the photograph alone. Therefore, I’m sure Mr. Chen won’t reject such a wonderful plan.”

Having heard Wang Xiaoou’s words, Ning Ran felt embarrassed.

“It’s just my personal opinion. Perhaps, he doesn’t even care about something this trivial,” Ning Ran replied awkwardly.

“No, you do have a point there. We should report this to Mr. Chen first and only respond to Huang Zichao’s agent once we have his agreement.”

Without hesitation, she said, “In that case, I’ll have to take a rain check on this meal. We’ll celebrate again after you walk the red carpet. For now, I need to go back to the office for a meeting to discuss the details of the awards ceremony.”

“Ou, sorry for the trouble.”

“Don’t mention it. I’m just doing my job. Once you become a megastar, all my effort would have been worth it,” Wang Xiaoou replied with a smile.

“What if I fail to become famous?” Ning Ran joked.

“That’s impossible,” Wang Xiaoou declared confidently.

“What makes you think that I’ll definitely make it big?”

“Do you know what conditions a celebrity must have to become famous?” Wang Xiaoou asked.

“Acting skills? Talent?” Ning Ran answered.

Wang Xiaoou shook her head. “Those are secondary.”

“So, what conditions does one need?”

“Resources. That’s the most important factor. The artiste per se is secondary. With massive resources, even a pig can become famous. As for the extent and duration of one’s fame, that will depend on the artist’s true strength.”

Ning Ran’s expression turned grim. “Ou, why do you have to make it sound so insulting? If even a pig can become famous, wouldn’t I, an actress, be of the same level as an animal?”

Wang Xiaoou burst into laughter. “I’m just quoting you an example. Since you asked me why I’m so certain about you becoming famous, I’m just telling you that it’s the unlimited resources that Mr. Chen provides. Combined with your acting skills, it would be impossible for you not to. Therefore, I’m not saying that you’re a pig. After all, even a top-tier agent like me can’t turn a pig into a megastar.”

“Fine. Even then, I still feel that I’m no different from a pig after what you said.” Ning Ran smiled wryly.

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going off now. I’ll get in touch if I hear anything,” Wang Xiaoou replied with a grin.

That day, Ning Ran managed to finish work early and got home by six.

Just when she was about to cook, the maid told her not to, as Nan Chen had arranged for dinner to be delivered.

After all, he was cognizant that Ning Ran would be tired after a long day and needed the rest.

Ning Ran was indeed exhausted. After getting a shower, she lay on the sofa, watching TV. Subsequently, she began to think about the script.

At the same time, Erbao and Dabao stayed closely by her side.

Having stayed at home the entire day, both of them were bored to death.

Therefore, when Ning Ran finally returned home, they wanted her to play with them.

“Mommy, this actress isn’t as good as you. Not only are her expressions too dramatic, but she also isn’t as pretty as you.”

Pointing at the TV, Erbao tried to make a conversation.

Not in the mood to watch trashy soap operas, Ning Ran grunted in acknowledgment as her mind was still on the script.

“Mommy, when will Daddy be home?” Erbao continued the conversation.

“I don’t know. Why don’t you give him a call?”

“Mommy, it’s been a long time since we saw Blondie. What is he doing? Why doesn’t he visit us?” Erbao asked.

Having been reminded of Zheng Lunlun, Ning Ran realized that it had been a while since they last saw him. Hence, she wondered if he was filming a new show.

“I’ll ask him later.”

“Mommy…”

Unable to stay quiet, Erbao kept peppering Ning Ran with mundane questions.

Naturally, Ning Ran empathized with her. After all, she was a chatty person and had no one to talk to at home.
