Because I couldn't become popular in the entertainment industry, I decided to leave the industry and inherit my family's fortune.

Before I sent out my retirement announcement, my friend from the entertainment industry, Chen Sisi, called me.

She asked me to be her flight attendant.

She said I didn't have to do anything, just show up, and she would take care of everything else.

She guaranteed that she would make me famous.

I smiled helplessly.

Whether I become famous or not doesn't matter to me.

But she really made me famous.

Who says being infamous is not a kind of fame?

Chen Sisi was participating in a celebrity networking competition show.

All the participants were celebrities from the entertainment industry.

There were top singers, A-list actors, popular female stars, and more.

The show was already trending and highly anticipated across the internet before it even aired.

The director didn't waste any time and had each guest invite their entertainment industry friends with valuable resources to appear on the show.

[Wow, no wonder it's the most popular show on the internet, straightforward and bold!]

[Isn't this just a competition to see whose entertainment industry friends are more powerful? If they can't invite enough celebrities, won't it be embarrassing?]

[Exciting! If you don't have influential friends in the entertainment industry, you wouldn't dare to appear on this show.]

...

The online viewers were excited, and the barrage of comments flooded the screen.

I looked at the influential people from the entertainment industry sitting next to me.

Well... they all had connections.

But their contemptuous looks towards me were too obvious.

After discreetly testing the waters, they shifted their gaze onto me.

"Fang Yuyu, if you need any help, you can come to us. We can find some... resources that can get you on the stage..."

Zhang Mi, a recently popular film star, raised her chin, looked at me, and elongated her tone, saying with a faint smile.

I smiled and didn't say anything, but the variety show had already moved on to the segment where friends went on stage.

The director knew how to stir up the audience's emotions.

I was arranged to be the third to appear.

Not too early, not too late, enough to make the audience compare me with the others.

[Looking at it this way, is Fang Yuyu just here to fill the numbers?]

[Chen Sisi is already an A-lister, couldn't she find someone with the same status as her? She had to bring an eighteen-liner, her social circle must be so poor.]

[Tsk tsk tsk, Chen Sisi has top-tier connections from her family, while Fang Yuyu can only find background actors. The difference is clear.]

[What kind of entertainment industry resources can an eighteen-liner like Fang Yuyu have? Extras? She's making a fool of herself by appearing on this show.]

... Yes, just like the netizens said, if I, an eighteen-liner, were to look for resources, I could only find background acting roles.

So, during the resource showcase segment, everyone had an expression of anticipation, waiting to see me embarrass myself.

"The resources Fang Yuyu brings are..."

The director intentionally prolonged the suspense.

"An invitation for a photoshoot on the cover of Oasis Fashion!" The director raised his voice as he made the announcement.

Instantly, everyone was stunned.

I was also surprised.

The netizens were shocked too, and the barrage of comments exploded.

[Oasis Fashion... How can an eighteen-liner have such a resource?!]

[Everyone in the entertainment industry knows that once you appear on Oasis Fashion, you've entered the fashion circle.]

[!! Isn't this even better than invitations to charity galas or audition opportunities?!]

[Oh my, this is huge?! If she has this resource, why doesn't she use it herself! What a true friend!]

... The public opinion among netizens started to lean towards me.

From originally underestimating my abilities to genuinely appreciating my friendship.

Chen Sisi looked at the barrage of comments and winked at me with a smile.

I understood that she had done all this deliberately.

Chen Sisi knew that I didn't care about fame, but she wanted to prove to everyone that even an "eighteen-liner" like me could bring valuable resources to the table.

She wanted to show that friendship and connections were not solely based on someone's fame or status.

And she succeeded.

From that moment on, I received attention and respect from my peers.

People wanted to get to know me, and my phone started ringing with offers for various projects.

But deep down, I knew that my real success wasn't because of the Oasis Fashion resource or the sudden fame.

It was because of the genuine friendship and trust between Chen Sisi and me.

That experience taught me that true connections are built on mutual support, loyalty, and trust.

And no matter what industry you're in, those qualities can take you much further than any fleeting fame or popularity.
