My crush wants to be my sugar daddy.

Chapter 45: Not Afraid of Him Becoming Famous, He Flew Away

In order not to miss out on this wave of traffic, GH plans to release GG ahead of schedule, and the filming will also be brought forward.

When Chi Yuan entered, he sensed that the people around him were looking at him strangely. He pretended not to notice and smiled and nodded at every gaze that came his way.

Li Weiran had warned him before he came.

"Although the online incident has been covered up, your role as spokesperson was added temporarily. Others may not know, but the people at GH definitely do. You might hear some rumors when you go for the shoot tomorrow, but don't pay attention to them. Just remember, once you become famous, you'll naturally hear these voices."

In fact, Li Weiran was worrying for nothing. As far as Chi Yuan was concerned, he wouldn't be angry if people talked about him and Jiang Haochen.

He didn't want people to know, yet he also wanted them to know. If Mr. Jiang wanted to separate from him two years later, all those who were talking about him would be witnesses to his love.

Therefore, Chi Yuan appeared very composed, even radiating a subtle joy from within.

Even Xiao Zhao admired Chi Yuan a little, thinking that anyone who could become an artist must have extraordinary mental fortitude.

Seeing his friendly attitude, the GH staff felt embarrassed to say anything. After all, you can't hit someone who's smiling at you; it's fine to gossip a little behind their back, but you can't reopen old wounds in front of them if you have no grudge.

"Chi Yuan?" A middle-aged man with a square face walked over and looked Chi Yuan up and down. "I am Luo Zheng, the head of the promotion department of GH."

Chi Yuan: "Minister Luo, hello, thank you for your help today."

Luo Zheng has worked with countless big-name stars, but someone of Chi Yuan's caliber is someone you can't even get a chance to see normally: "Since you know it'll be troublesome, then film properly in a bit."

Chi Yuan's smile froze, but he still nodded good-naturedly.

Luo Zheng called over a staff member: "Xiao Wang, take him to change his clothes."

A girl walked over and, as usual, led Chi Yuan to the fitting room, pointing to the clothes hanging inside and saying, "These are the clothes; pick a few to wear."

After saying that, he was about to leave.

Xiao Zhao objected, calling out to the other person, "Wait, with so many clothes, which one are we going to wear?"

The staff member said dismissively, "We have three collections for our autumn collection, and we've already decided on the spokespeople. Your artist is a new addition, so we can't develop a new collection for him, right? Just wear whatever you like."

What does this mean?!

Xiao Zhao's expression changed, and he was about to say something more when Chi Yuan stopped him.

After the staff left, only the two of them remained in the fitting room. Xiao Zhao was still furious: "What did he mean by what he just said? He practically pointed his finger at us and said we were superfluous."

Chi Yuan wasn't angry at all, and started choosing clothes: "I wasn't originally in GH's plan, so I was definitely unnecessary."

Xiao Zhao: "Even so, once the contract is signed, we will be the official spokespersons. Either don't sign us, or if you do, you still have this attitude. Do you have any manners?"

Chi Yuan picked out a shirt and a pair of jeans, then showed them to Xiao Zhao, asking, "How's this outfit?"

Xiao Zhao: "What are you still picking and choosing? He already said that, so the clothes he gives us are definitely not good ones. Just wear any one of them."

Chi Yuan: "They can do a perfunctory job, but we can't. If the photos look good, I'm the one who benefits."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhao agreed: "You're right, we need to choose carefully. When you become famous, Brother Chi, they'll be begging you for your services."

Chi Yuan hummed in agreement. He didn't know if he would ever be begged by GH to take pictures of GG, but at this moment, he didn't want to spoil Xiao Zhao's fun.

Inside the photography studio.

Luo Zheng is communicating with the director about the final shoot.

The director asked Luo Zheng, "What kind of style do you want for the last group?"

Luo Zheng was about to say that he could just take a few pictures, as this last set of photos wasn't the main point, but when he glanced up casually, he caught sight of the boy coming out of the fitting room.

The boy wore a simple white shirt and light gray jeans. He walked with a smile on his face and a bright look in his eyes, exuding a vibrant energy.

Luo Zheng had worked at GH for so many years and never realized that his own clothes had such a unique style.

The director also saw Chi Yuan walking over and exclaimed, "When did GH change its style? What series is this?"

This isn't part of any GH collection; it's just clothing designed by some of GH's newly signed designers and sold as part of a promotional campaign. It's not their main product line.

Just as Luo Zheng was about to answer, he heard a young female assistant ask the staff, "How much does this shirt cost? If it's not too expensive, I'd like to buy one for my boyfriend."

The staff member said, "These aren't expensive. They're all works by junior designers. Each piece is only around seven or eight hundred."

"That's alright, I'll buy one when it's released."

"Why didn't I see you want to buy it before?"

"Those previous collections, worn by supermodels and movie stars, looked like something I couldn't afford."

"No, those innerwear pieces are all about the same price."

"Yeah?"

Are movie stars and supermodels dressed in clothes that look like they can't afford them?

"Minister Luo, Director?" Chi Yuan walked over and greeted the two of them.

The director nodded and said to Chi Yuan, "Go up there and test the lighting. I'll see how to shoot it."

Chi Yuan: "Okay."

Chi Yuan went up and worked with the photographer to find the most suitable angle.

It started as a test shoot, but Chi Won's face was just too handsome, and his eyes, when he looked at the camera, seemed to see right into people's hearts, with an irresistible sincerity.

After the first set of filming was completed, the director asked Chi Won to change his clothes while he and Luo Zheng watched the final cut.

"Look, these are nice ones, perfect for displaying in a shop window. Just look at that gaze, anyone passing by your shop window will be unable to resist making eye contact with him."

Luo Zheng also had to admit that Chi Yuan's face was really handsome.

Because GH didn't have high expectations for Chi Yuan, the shooting process went very smoothly. Chi Yuan only changed five outfits before the shoot was over.

Two days later, the posters were put up at GH's physical stores and online shop. Then the store employees suddenly realized that most of the people who came in after seeing the posters were asking about the shirt in the poster featuring Chi Yuan.

All of them are girls who think Chi Yuan looks good in what he wears and want to buy it for their boyfriends and husbands.

When it comes to endorsements, naturally, whoever has the best data gets promoted. So Luo Zheng's GG posters were displayed on the most bustling streets and the most eye-catching LED screens in City B.

Because of the unexpected publicity effect, Levin personally called Jiang Haochen to express his gratitude: "Your judgment was indeed correct. Because of Chi Yuan's situation, the company has decided to launch a separate affordable luxury series, and Chi Yuan will continue to be the spokesperson."

Jiang Haochen chuckled: "Then the endorsement fee..."

Before Jiang Haochen could finish speaking, Levin offered, "Give it to him along with this one. I won't let your little lover suffer any loss."

Jiang Haochen: "Good to know."

Levin: "Speaking of which, aren't you afraid that if you pamper your little lover like this, he'll become too famous and won't be able to stay in the nest?"

Jiang Haochen stared at the huge poster of Chi Yuan on the LED screen in the distance and laughed, "Only when he becomes famous can I make more money."

Levin: "Tsk, I thought you were interested, but it seems you weren't. Remember to let me know when you decide you don't want it anymore."

Jiang Haochen's smile turned cold, but he still said, "If he's willing to be with you, I won't stop him."

Levin said half-jokingly, "So generous! Okay, you can introduce us next time."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Haochen stared at Chi Yuan's poster for a long time, his mood inexplicably sour.

Come to think of it, Chi Yuan hasn't contacted him proactively for a long time. Does he really think he's gotten too big for his britches?

He took out his phone and sent a message to Chi Yuan: {Come over.}

Chi Yuan, who was recording a program in the next city, glanced at his phone and asked Xiao Zhao, "Xiao Zhao, what time is the announcement tomorrow morning?"

Xiao Zhao checked the schedule: "Six o'clock in the morning."

Chi Yuan calculated the time: "We'll make it."

As he walked out, he texted Jiang Haochen: {Mr. Jiang, I should arrive around midnight.}

Jiang Haochen scoffed: "You dared to make me wait."
