“In fact, I’ve already told Bai Yang that Wang Cui’s son, Zhou Tao, is not a good person from a glance, and not to let him participate in our family’s project!”

When she said this, Tao Ran felt a little guilty and sneaked a glance at Xiao Bai.

She was a little tired from the ruckus early in the morning. Tao Ran did not feel like staying at home anymore. She thought for a while and decided to bring Xiao Bai out to see something different.

“Let me take you to visit a filming crew!” Tao Ran said excitedly to Xiao Bai. “Your cousin, who is your uncle’s daughter from my family’s side, is a C-list celebrity. She is filming in the film and television base in Sea City recently. Let me take you to see a celebrity!”

“A celebrity? What does a celebrity do?” Xiao Bai asked. She grew up in a Taoist temple, and every day she practiced divination to catch ghosts and set up stalls. On the mountain, she did not have much contact with the internet. Therefore, she did not know much about celebrities.

Thinking of Xiao Bai’s pitiful background, Tao Ran’s eyes turned red again. She patiently explained to Xiao Bai, “Celebrities are good-looking people. Some can sing and dance, and some can act. They all have fans, and fans are people who like them very much. They are willing to spend money to buy their records, watch their movies, and buy the products they endorse.”

“Isn’t this the cult that Master told me about?” Xiao Bai was puzzled.

“It’s not a cult!” Tao Ran facepalmed. Her eldest daughter was very imaginative. “The fans are all voluntary.”

“The followers of the cult are voluntary too.”

“Celebrities spread positive energy. Fans who support them will feel satisfied in their hearts. They will also follow the celebrities to do public welfare and devote themselves to the good.”

“Oh.” Xiao Bai thought for a moment and said, “Then a celebrity is similar to my cause of reviving the Taoist temple! I want to be a celebrity for reviving the Taoist temple too! But now I don’t have enough fans.”

Xiao Bai smiled embarrassedly. “Only Mr. Durian from the next door supports me.”

There seemed to be something wrong with Xiao Bai’s understanding, but Tao Ran couldn’t tell what was wrong. Well, forget it, she shouldn’t think about it and decided to coax the child quickly.

“I am also your fan! I am now your number one fan!” After all, she really adored Xiao Bai!

“Later, I will donate a large sum of money to support your revival of the Taoist temple!”

Tao Ran paused and said, “Donating money is called ‘voting’ when it comes to idolizing celebrities.”

The two of them expressed their opinions on the concept of celebrities, mainly based on Tao Ran’s general knowledge.

After listening to Tao Ran’s explanation, Bai Jin felt that she should follow Tao Ran to do the visitation and learn about what celebrities with many fans do. After all, she needed many fans and investors to revive the Taoist temple!

The driver drove the two of them to the film studio. On the way, Tao Ran had already called her niece, Tao Hui. At this moment, her niece’s assistant had been waiting at the entrance of the film studio.

“Aunt Tao, Sister Hui has a scene today, so she asked me to bring you in. Do you think we should wait in Sister Hui’s car or watch on set for a while?” The assistant met Tao Ran before and greeted her with familiarity.

“Let’s go and watch for a while.” Tao Ran had seen a lot of filming, but Xiao Bai hadn’t. She planned to bring Xiao Bai to watch the filming.

Xiao Bai was indeed very interested in the film studio.

She mainly liked the architectural styles here. The huge film studio had all kinds of architectural styles. There were styles of the Ming and Qing Dynasty, Republic of China, and even styles modeled after antiques.

There were also scenes of the restored Taoist temple!

These were valuable references for Xiao Bai to rebuild the Taoist temple in the future!

Thus, they did not take the car. Instead, they strolled along the road leisurely and stopped to take photos when they saw something they liked. They leisurely arrived at Tao Hui’s film set..
