Divine Level Witch Doctor

Yang Cai’Er had recently starred in several dramas and appeared on popular variety shows. With her star on the rise and a legion of fans, her popularity was at its peak. Meanwhile, once the factory’s expansion was complete, production capacity would skyrocket. The goal would no longer be just establishing a foothold in Rongcheng City and sweeping Western Shu Province, but expanding nationwide!

As the old saying goes, even the finest wine is worthless if it’s hidden in a deep alley. Although the effects of the Soul-Stabilizing Incense, Beauty Pills, and Vitality Pills were extraordinary, and everyone who used them sang their praises, advertising was essential to convince new customers to take a chance on them.

After all, none of them—Soul-Stabilizing Incense, Beauty Pills, or Vitality Pills—were cheap. Moreover, they weren’t one-time purchases. Once someone started using them, they’d become a long-term customer. And that added up to a lot of money!

Just think: without advertising, who would buy a pricey health supplement they’d never even heard of?

The money was one thing, but what if it made you sick? After all, the market was flooded with fraudulent health supplements.

It was with this in mind that Fang Yi had suggested hiring a celebrity to shoot a commercial a few days ago. The sight of Yang Cai’Er instantly reminded Zhao Yuan of the idea. Her stunning looks and immense popularity made her the perfect person to endorse the Beauty Pill.

The sudden invitation took Yang Cai’Er aback. She neither refused nor agreed, simply offering a polite smile. ”May I ask what product this commercial is for?”

Zhao Yuan answered, ”A health supplement. It’s called the Beauty Pill.”

As soon as she heard the two words ”health supplement,” Yang Cai’Er immediately lost interest.

’Given my current A-list status, I only endorse international luxury labels or top-tier domestic brands. I wouldn’t touch an unknown health supplement no matter how much they paid; it would only cheapen my image. Besides, what a terrible name—Beauty Pill? It’s tacky as hell! And these kinds of supplements are notoriously shady. If I endorsed this junk, I’d become a total laughingstock!’

For all these reasons, Yang Cai’Er didn’t hesitate to politely decline. ”I’m so sorry, Mr. Zhao, but my schedule is completely packed right now. I really can’t squeeze in a commercial shoot. Maybe we can work together some other time.”

This was a blatant lie. Shooting a commercial wouldn’t take long, and it was well-known that she frequently ducked out of film sets to shoot ads or attend promotional events. She even used a body double for many of her own scenes.

Although Zhao Yuan didn’t understand the inner workings of the entertainment industry, he could tell from Yang Cai’Er’s insincere tone that she was looking down on the Beauty Pill. Shrugging, he said noncommittally, ”What a shame. Well, maybe some other time.” With that, he turned to get in his car and leave.

Just then, President Song squeezed his way forward, a fawning smile on his face. ”Mr. Zhao, please wait! I’m the general manager of Rongcheng Guilai Film and Television. My name is Song Ming. Did I hear you correctly? Were you just saying you’re looking for someone to endorse the Beauty Pill?”

Zhao Yuan nodded. ”That’s right. Why do you ask?”

Song Ming pressed on, ”The Beauty Pill from the Witch Medical Factory? The same one they call one of the ’three miracle drugs,’ along with the Soul-Stabilizing Incense and Vitality Pills?”

’Three miracle drugs?’

Zhao Yuan felt his face darken. ’Who came up with a nickname like that? It’s so tacky!’

In fact, he wasn’t the only one. Yang Cai’Er and the others standing nearby thought the same. Trying to stifle a laugh, Yang Cai’Er secretly congratulated herself. ’Thank goodness I turned it down. ”The three miracle drugs?” Sounds like some kind of snake oil. It’s probably junk.’

Unlike these directors and actors from out of town, Song Ming was a Rongcheng City local. He was all too familiar with the ”three miracle drugs” that had recently taken the city by storm.

He was, in fact, a loyal fan of the three miracle drugs himself.

Nowadays, Song Ming couldn’t get through a workday without lighting a Soul-Stabilizing Incense. As for the Vitality Pills, he took one every single day. These Medicine Pills made him feel young again, like he was back in his prime.

His wife, meanwhile, was completely captivated by the Beauty Pill. She’d stopped using all cosmetics and skincare products, taking just a Beauty Pill every day. And the results were truly amazing—her skin, her looks, her entire aura seemed to be returning to how they were in her youth. The old, haggard look was gone. This also meant that for Song Ming, fulfilling his marital duties was no longer a chore, but a pleasure. Their life as a couple had become much more harmonious.

When he heard Zhao Yuan say he was looking for someone to shoot a commercial for the Beauty Pill, he immediately realized this was an opportunity!

The Beauty Pill’s effects were undeniable. Landing a commercial like this would be a surefire way to gain both fame and fortune!

When Zhao Yuan had first approached Yang Cai’Er, Song Ming had been frantically shooting her meaningful looks, trying to signal that she absolutely had to take the gig. Unfortunately, she either hadn’t noticed his signals or had simply ignored them. After all, she was a top A-lister now, and her ego had inflated to match.

When Yang Cai’Er turned Zhao Yuan down, Song Ming first felt a pang of regret, which was immediately followed by a wave of ecstasy. Yang Cai’Er didn’t understand what a great product the Beauty Pill was and had just passed up a golden opportunity for fame and fortune. He wasn’t about to miss out, which was why he’d rushed over to stop Zhao Yuan.

Zhao Yuan nodded and replied, ”That’s right, it’s the Beauty Pill you’re talking about. But what’s this about a ’three miracle drugs’ name? Who came up with that?”

Having received confirmation, the smile on Song Ming’s face grew even more fervent. He chuckled, ”That name, ’the three miracle drugs,’ is what everyone calls them. The effects of the Soul-Stabilizing Incense, the Beauty Pill, and the Vitality Pills are just so incredible, they’re truly worthy of the name.”

Zhao Yuan waved his hand, cutting off Song Ming’s flattery. ”Let’s get to the point. What’s on your mind, Mr. Song?”

Song Ming said, ”I wouldn’t presume to advise you. I just wanted to ask, what are your requirements for the Beauty Pill’s spokesperson, Mr. Zhao?”

Zhao Yuan thought for a moment. ”A good image, a great disposition, and a solid reputation. No negative press, and of course, they need to have a certain degree of fame.”

”I have the perfect candidate in mind,” Song Ming said quickly. ”Would you be willing to consider her?”

Zhao Yuan asked, ”And who would that be?”

Song Ming beckoned to a young actress and made the introduction. ”This is Sun Xin. She’s been in quite a few productions, and she’s the second female lead in Director Jin’s current film.”

Unlike Yang Cai’Er, Sun Xin was signed to Song Ming’s own film company; she was the actress they were currently promoting the most. Although she was still new, she had a wonderful image and temperament. She had appeared in a number of productions recently and was starting to build a name for herself. While she was no match for an A-lister like Yang Cai’Er, she was definitely at the top of her class among the up-and-comers.
