Chapter 111: Chapter 111 Double Click 666
Every star has a different personality, and the entertainment circle is a place that values luck. Some people might just inexplicably become popular, while others inexplicably fade away.
She didn’t know if other stars were as grounded and planned in their approach as she was, but at least she was, and she worked hard to do her part well.
When she returned to the hotel, He Jinxia received a call from Luo Dingxin, asking if she wanted to go out and gather, with Gu Runfei and Luo Sifang also attending.
He Jinxia looked at the pile of fruit in her room and, eager to try the experiment Sheng Yan had mentioned, she said she was temporarily unavailable and declined the gathering.
On one hand, she impatiently began washing and slicing fruits with Cheng Xiaohua, skipping dinner. On the other hand, Luo Dingxin informed the other two about He Jinxia’s absence.
Luo Sifang’s face was expressionless, but Gu Runfei grimaced, showing a brief trace of dissatisfaction, although he restrained himself and didn’t say anything.
Gu Runfei, feeling somewhat upset, ordered a few bottles of beer. He originally wanted to order liquor, but Luo Dingxin and Luo Sifang persuaded him against it.
Luo Sifang, changing from her reserved behavior the day before, boldly competed in drinking with Gu Runfei, and they even ended up playing a dice game.
Luo Dingxin quietly watched and suddenly felt that it was for the best that He Jinxia did not come this time.

The next day, when Cheng Xiaohua woke her up, she had already prepared breakfast for her.
"Yesterday, I specifically asked Luo Dingxin’s assistant. His assistant was quite kind and told me that small production crews are like this by nature. Meal times are strictly scheduled, take it or leave it, but they do provide food according to the contract.
Only large production crews are humane enough to supply actors with breakfast, lunch, dinner, and even late-night snacks anytime, anywhere. His assistant suggested buying a portable mini pot so you can make congee to drink, cooking separately just for you, which is what Luo Dingxin does.
Yesterday, while helping you shop on Wanbao Net, I went ahead and bought the rice and pot. Hurry up and eat some congee, so you don’t go hungry. I also warmed up a few steamed buns for you. If congee isn’t filling enough, make sure to eat a few buns."
Today, I plan to wander around the nearby villages to see if I can find some free-range eggs to boil a few for you each day..."
He Jinxia ate her congee with restraint and elegance, her movements not slow at all, her eyes curving into a smile, listening happily to Cheng Xiaohua’s chatter.
Feeling cared for in this way was something she had rarely experienced in her previous life, and she found it very good.
After quickly finishing breakfast, He Jinxia and Cheng Xiaohua moved the fruits and tools they had prepared the day before into the car outside the hotel.
Upon arriving at the production crew, Cheng Xiaohua hesitantly asked a question she had already asked several times the day before, "Fat Emperor, are you really going to do this?"
He Jinxia patted her shoulder, smiling and said, "Don’t be timid, just go for it!"
Cheng Xiaohua: "..." If you’re not timid, go do it yourself!!
Oh my, I always feel this sneaky sense of guilt.
He Jinxia was called by the makeup artist to change into her costume, and before she left, she gave Cheng Xiaohua a heart gesture to cheer her on again.
Cheng Xiaohua looked back every three steps until she could no longer see He Jinxia, then finally gritted her teeth and drove to another place. Done!
After changing into her costume, He Jinxia closed her eyes, feeling the slight itch as the makeup artist brushed various cosmetics on her face, her thoughts drifting.
The day before yesterday, Sheng Yan said to her over the phone, "Have you heard about an experiment involving unattended items that relies on honesty for people to take things?"
Jinxia furrowed her brows, somewhat confused, and asked, "What is that?"
Sheng Yan: "Actually, many people have already conducted these experiments domestically, but they haven’t gained much traction and can only be summed up as experimental, not applicable in real life.
The most common experiment involves people who forget to bring change for the bus. Near the bus stop, someone places a change jar containing only paper bills or coins, unattended, allowing those who need change to help themselves."
Jinxia became curious. "Do people really go for change, and isn’t the change taken away?"
Sheng Yan: "Yes, but it was all taken away, and the experiment was halted on the seventh day. Initially, people didn’t believe it, but as they saw others trying, more and more people began to get change.
Everyone was very conscious, adhering to the rules. It was stopped later because the change was completely taken by beggars, with the same thing happening for several days in a row, so they had to stop."
Jinxia understood, but still was a bit puzzled, "So what does this experiment have to do with me..."
Sheng Yan calmly said, "This experiment has spawned many versions, and last year I saw one in the newspaper that might help you.
A young person was selling watermelons at a market, fixed the price of each watermelon, but didn’t supervise, relying on the people who bought the watermelons to conscientiously leave the money. This business model was launched and received much popularity."
Jinxia paused, seemingly grasping something, and said, "Are you suggesting that I do the same as that watermelon vendor?"
Sheng Yan nodded slightly, deliberately saying, "You could give it a try. Based on my analysis, in the environment of the Film City, you should be able to make some money initially from this experiment."
Jinxia was still somewhat incredulous, finding this way of thinking too avant-garde for her, and couldn’t help but ask, "Are you sure? It doesn’t feel at all like doing business."
Sheng Yan countered, "Who told you this is doing business?"
Jinxia: "..."
Sheng Yan casually remarked, "This is just a small experiment, one that you can do based on your current situation, and coincidentally, this experiment can also help you make some pocket money, that’s all."
Jinxia was astounded by Sheng Yan’s remarks.
Look, if you want to make money, just make it, yet he still managed to give making money such a grand-sounding title.
The academic underachiever Jinxia had never thought that she could one day conduct an experiment.
Thus, with a heart full of admiration, the academic underachiever respectfully asked, "Master, what is the purpose of us doing this experiment?"
Sheng Yan’s lips curved slightly, and he coolly uttered a sentence, "To verify the professionalism of the stars and practitioners in Film City, the issue of mutual trust among people, and to provide a case study for researching social and human development."
Jinxia kneeled in awe.
No matter what she was thinking inside, at least Cheng Xiaohua expressed strong skepticism and disapproval of her idea.
Cheng Xiaohua drove to a three-way intersection in Film City, where there are a total of three cameras, the same location that she and Jinxia had agreed on yesterday.
