Transmigration of the Famous Cyber Star

At last, Yang Huayue finally decided to delete her Wei Bo post. She then immediately sent a red celebration post: “New Year’s Eve is almost here. I wish everyone a happy Chinese New Year!”

The search tag #Yang Huayue and Feng Qingyu’s Fans Fighting Against Each Other# was removed by Gao Jindong, and all traces of the conflict on Wei Bo were also erased. Everything was back to peace as if nothing had happened. And everything within that conflict seemed to be everyone’s delusion.

The next day, Feng Qingyu continued to work in the cast as usual. She even chatted with Yang Huayue in the restroom and did not look angry at all.

Yang Huayue sighed in relief. She thought this conflict was finally over.

However, reality proved she was still too inexperienced.

The third day had passed since Yang Huayue complained on Wei Bo. It was New Year’s eve.

Liu Man received several WeChat red packets early in the morning.

The first red packet was from her mother, Zhang Pei. Zhang Pei had sent her 1,000 RMB,” Make sure to take good care of yourself in Shanghai. I am spending Chinese New Year in your grandparents’ house. We’re all doing good, so don’t worry about us.”

The simple, warm message contained lots of love from a mother.

The second red packet was from Yu Zhan, who had sent her 100 RMB matched by a simple “Happy New Year’s Eve.” He had already posted a super cute picture of Daylight and Paul last night. They were both wearing red costumes and were celebrating. The frank Paul had his mouth open as he grinned, and Daylight was pouting because she didn’t like to wear clothing. It was as if she was going to die. Liu Man had reposted this photo last night, and there were now a few ten-thousand likes. “I’m a vet” also gained enough fans to reach 10,000.

Liu Man sent the 100 RMB red packet back to Yu Zhan so she could return his gift with a gift.

Yu Zhan opened the red packet the moment she sent it, and then sent over a WeChat message,

“It’s New Year’s Eve today. What are your plans?”

“Not right now, everyone is busy filming these two days, we don’t even have a festive temperament nor a special notice from the crew.

“Okay.”

Yu Zhan sent over this short message and stopped typing.

The third red packet was from Li Xiaoru. Li Xiaoru sent Liu Man a red packet containing 520 RMB with a message, “To my dear Man Man, xoxo.” There was no other message from her.

Liu Man laughed as she sent back a red packet containing 521 RMB with, “To my dear Xiaoru, xoxo.”

The fourth red packet was from Coco. Coco gave her a red packet containing 2,000 RMB with the message: “My goddess, happy Chinese New Year! Don’t complain about how less money I sent you, and don’t send it right back to me!!! Even if you do, I won’t take it. (Smirks)”

Since Coco had already said this, Liu Man naturally didn’t send the red packet back to her. Between girls, they didn’t need these fake courtesy.

The fifth red packet was from “Peach is a fairy.” Peach had always been munificent; she often gifted Liu Man with Fairytale Carriages when she live-streamed. So Liu Man didn’t feel strange when Peach sent her a big red packet containing 1314 RMB.

TL’s Note: So in Chinese, there’s this common language everyone knows. 520, which was the amount of money Li Xiaoru sent Liu Man, means “I love you.” 1314 means “My entire life.” So it’s usually 5201314.

She sent back a red packet with 1314.52 RMB.

Just as she sent this red packet, a WeChat notification popped out,

“Tang Tu sent you a red packet.”

Liu Man frowned. She pretended she didn’t see it and ignored it.

At this time, there was a lot of red packets sent in every group chat she was in. In comparison to the college chats filled with poor students, the cast group chat became the one filled with the largest red packets.

Qiu Jing sent, “Everyone, Happy New Year!” She then sent a red packet with 10000 RMB. Ye Zian and Gao Jindong each sent one with 10000 RMB, too. Feng Qingyu and Qiao Xin each sent one with 5000 RMB, and Tang Tu and Yang Huayue each sent one with 3000 RMB.

TL’s Note: To those who don’t use WeChat, red packets posted in group chats are different from those sent in private chats. In a group chat, the senders get to choose how many people could receive the red packet, and then the system would randomly give each person an amount of money. For instance, you can send a 5 RMB packet and make it so that two people would be able to open it. The system can make it so that one person receives 3 RMB, and the other receives 2, or the system can randomly make one person receive 1 RMB, and the other will receive 4.

It was different in these workgroup chats. Everyone sent red packets according to their position in the cast. When important figures sent red packets, everyone would immediately try to open them. There were more than four hundred people in this cast group chat, and even those extras with only two lines were in this chat. Everyone was able to at least receive a few dozens of RMB, and the lucky ones were able to receive a few thousand RMBs. This was much easier than trying to earn money by acting. There were thousands of messages flashing by in the chat history within just a moment. Everyone who managed to open red packets was spamming emojis that read: “Thank you, boss,” or, “A wonderful day starts with a red packet.”

Liu Man wasn’t careful and missed lots of red packets. She scrolled through the chat history and found some red packets with money left. She managed to get a bit more than ten RMB.

Just as Liu Man was still checking on how much money she had left on WeChat, she was added to a new group chat by Qiu Jing. The name of this chat was “New Year’s Eve Dinner Party.” There were not even fifty people in the chat, but the member count was still increasing.

The group manager announced, “Tonight, we plan on having a dinner party in the Princess Sissi section of the fourth-floor restaurant in Quan Jing hotel. We want to thank everyone for their hard work during winter break instead of returning home to spend the break.”

The Quan Jing hotel was a six-stars hotel situated beside the Huangpu River. Qiu Jing, Tang Tu, and the other leads all lived in this hotel.

To host such a dinner party in such a luxurious place would be unbelievably expensive.

The manager then sent another message, “If you don’t have time, if you’re even busier than our Producer Qiu and Producer Gao, if you cannot attend, please announce now in the group chat.”

This question was asked in such a cruel way. Who would dare to say they wouldn’t be able to attend?

“Roger that!”

“Roger that!”

…

There was a line of “Roger that!”

Liu Man replied “Roger that,” too.

She considered for a moment, found Yu Zhan’s WeChat, and sent him a message.

“The manager just told me we’ll be having a dinner party at the Quan Jing hotel.”

Yu Zhan instantly replied with a “Roger that.”

The dinner party was set at six o’clock.

The most important members of the cast were living in Quan Jing hotel, so the dinner party was hosted at their dinner time. The hotel Liu Man lived in was not that far away from this hotel, but in case of traffic, she left her hotel at just five o’clock.

The entire fourth floor of the Quan Jing hotel was a restaurant and was divided into five sections. Each of the sections was named with old western movies, “Princess Sissi,” “Yesenia,” “Gone with the Wind,” “Casablanca,” and “The Roman Holiday.”

Liu Man could see the sign of the Quan Jing hotel from far away when she was still in the taxi. The hotel had 42 floors in total and was at the banks of the Huangpu River. The building was mostly made out of glass, and it looked as if it was glowing with the sunlight shining. The hotel even had a private garden in such an expensive city like Shanghai. The garden took over a part of the river banks, so the customers of this hotel would be able to have a private piece of land beside the river.

The taxi stopped at the entrance of the hotel. A handsome waiter in a uniform helped open the door for Liu Man.

“Ma’am, please.”

When Liu Man entered the hotel, a waitress stepped up to ask where she was heading.

Such a careful and meticulous service flattered Liu Man.

Today was New Year’s Eve, so all the tables in the restaurant on the fourth floor were all reserved beforehand. Each section had its entrances and a private elevator, so there were no disturbances. This insured absolute privacy.
