As the talent show "Majestic Song" heats up, many contestants have gained fame.
Geng Like is a representative figure among them.
She is not only beautiful but also has solid acting skills, winning the audience’s affection.
The judges are increasingly satisfied with Geng Like, considering placing her in the finals.
However, it’s up to Chen Bin to make the final decision.
After learning about this, Chen Bin nodded and agreed.
He also took the opportunity to ask someone to find a performance teacher for Kong Shiyu to help her with systematic learning.
After the judges left, Chen Bin kept Jin Jiangkou behind.
"Currently, how many of those contestants do you think can be used in the show?"
"Basically, all of them can be used, but it still needs to be considered from the perspective of the character’s requirements."
"Can Geng Like play the female lead?"
After thinking it over, Jin Jiangkou shook his head.
"Considering Geng Like’s personal traits, I think she is more suitable for the second female lead."
He then shared his thoughts.
Chen Bin nodded repeatedly after hearing it, finding it reasonable.
He thought that if Geng Like could play the female lead, he could owe a big favor to Li Lu.
But since it’s not suitable, he shouldn’t force it.
Then, Chen Bin suddenly asked, "Do you know Xin Kalan?"
"Of course, she was very famous in Taiwan. Her story with Guan Kongcheng is well-known."
Jin Jiangkou then recounted the past between Xin Kalan and Guan Kongcheng.
Back then, Xin Kalan was new to the television industry after changing careers.
Guan Kongcheng was on the rise in his career; although somewhat famous, he was not quite a big star yet.
They met backstage while recording a show.
Xin Kalan was a fan of Guan Kongcheng, and he was very fond of her.
Thus, after half a year of dating, they confirmed their relationship and moved in together.
This was a hot topic in Taiwan at the time, with everyone saying they were a perfect match—a match made in heaven.
Consequently, their careers began to flourish.
However, after Xin Kalan became pregnant, Guan Kongcheng started staying out all night.
There were also rumors that Guan Kongcheng had another woman outside.
Upon hearing this, Xin Kalan hired a private detective to investigate Guan Kongcheng.
One night, she followed the detective’s tip and caught Guan Kongcheng and his sixteen-year-old girlfriend in a hotel.
While fighting with the young girl, Xin Kalan accidentally fell, leading to a miscarriage.
From then on, she gave up completely and parted with Guan Kongcheng amicably.
By that time, Guan Kongcheng had become very famous, and many paparazzi started stalking Xin Kalan for scoops.
Feeling harassed, Xin Kalan left Taiwan to develop her career on the Mainland.
After understanding the whole story, Chen Bin was lost in thought.
Three days later, he called Xin Kalan to his office.
Chen Bin didn’t answer, handing over a newspaper instead.
Glancing at it, Xin Kalan’s face unconsciously revealed a cold smile.
Because on the front page of the newspaper, it was written in bold letters—Guan Kongcheng beats people for no reason!
Along with photos and text.
Chen Bin asked, "How do you plan to thank me?" Thɪs chapter is updated by N()velFire.net
Xin Kalan put on a confused expression, "Why should I thank you?"
"I helped you vent your anger, don’t you appreciate it?"
"What does Guan Kongcheng hitting people have to do with me?"
"Come on, don’t pretend with me. I’ve heard all about your past, and let me tell you a secret: Guan Kongcheng is now my godson."
"Really? You’re not kidding me, are you?"
Seeing Xin Kalan’s bewildered eyes, Chen Bin replied.
"If he wasn’t my godson, I would have exposed the photos long ago. I did this purely to help you."
"Alright, how do you want me to thank you?"
"I want you to cook a meal for me, and by the way, discuss that billion-dollar project."
"Oh, I forgot to mention, what was that project you were talking about in Japan?"
For Xin Kalan, a billion-dollar project is a big deal.
If it works out, she might never have to worry about food and drink in this lifetime.
Chen Bin just smiled and shook his head, "You’ll find out about the project later."
"Alright, are you coming to my house tonight?"
"No, I have things to do tonight, let’s do it another day."
Nodding, Xin Kalan turned and left.
Without hesitation, Chen Bin drove directly to the Provincial Committee and entered the deputy secretary’s office.
Chen Bin approached the desk and asked, "Secretary Li, I hope I’m not disturbing your work?"
"No, have a seat. What’s up?"
"I’m here to report about Geng Like. Her performance is excellent, and both the judges and the audience love her. So I’m planning to promote her to first place."
"Would that be difficult?"
"Not at all! Considering Geng Like’s talent, she absolutely deserves to be the champion. After discussing with the chief director of ’Majestic Song,’ he believes she would shine more as the second female lead..."
Chen Bin roughly recounted what Jin Jiangkou had said.
In his view, if Geng Like directly won the championship and played the female lead, it wouldn’t need to be reported.
But playing the second female lead, they need to consider the circumstances.
Otherwise, it could be a thankless job.
After some thought, Li Lu replied.
"I know nothing about acting. If the chief director says she’s suitable for the second female lead, then that’s what she’ll play."
"Alright, no problem!"
Evening, Tianhai District.
Shen Xue was cooking in Chen Bin’s house.
Standing behind her, Chen Bin couldn’t resist teasing her, causing Shen Xue to coo.
"Oh, wait until I finish cooking. It’s really uncomfortable when you do this now."
"I have a way to get you all of Feng Huzhou’s inheritance at once. Want to hear it?"
Hearing this, Shen Xue’s spirits were immediately lifted.
She quickly asked, "What’s the way?"
Feng Lei always suspected something was fishy about Feng Huzhou’s death, so he was wary of Shen Xue.
As for Feng Huzhou’s inheritance, Feng Lei was holding onto it tightly, unwilling to give any to Shen Xue or Feng Xiaobao.
Although Shen Xue disliked Feng Huzhou, she wouldn’t turn down money.
Lately, she’s been worrying like mad over the estate issues.
Now hearing that Chen Bin has a plan, she naturally became extremely excited.
"To get that inheritance, it mainly depends on how good your acting is."
Seeing Shen Xue’s puzzled expression, Chen Bin answered.
"The better you act, the greater your chances of getting the inheritance."
"So what should I do?"
"Don’t worry, after we finish eating, I’ll tell you..."
