Chapter 60 Emergency Meeting

Chapter 60: Chapter 60 Emergency Meeting

The director yelled "cut" and it took a while for the actors involved in the shooting to slowly come back to reality. The atmosphere gradually became relaxed, and many people turned their gaze to He Jinxia.

They all knew about the big event that happened on W this morning, and they had also seen the complete weight loss comparison photos He Jinxia posted. However, seeing the photos and seeing the person in real life had completely different effects.

Even though they were prepared for "He Jinxia’s successful weight loss and becoming very beautiful," seeing her in person still shocked them.

Unfortunately, since their social status varied, and they hadn’t seen each other for several months, no one approached He Jinxia for a chat right away.

He Jinxia didn’t have any scenes to shoot for the time being, so she sat down and took a sip of water. Li Li was the first to lose patience, she sat beside her and whispered, "Are you really He Jinxia?"

He Jinxia couldn’t help but laugh and asked in return, "Do you also think I had plastic surgery?"

Li Li was very certain as she shook her head, "You didn’t have plastic surgery, plastic surgery absolutely couldn’t achieve the kind of effect you have. It’s not plastic surgery, you’ve completely changed your face."

He Jinxia replied leisurely, "Every fat person has potential, and that saying is very true."

Li Li understood her meaning and nodded vigorously, "I didn’t believe it before, but now I do. A living example is right in front of me, how can I not believe it?"

Their conversation opened up just like that, and Li Li curiously inquired about how He Jinxia managed to lose weight. He Jinxia didn’t see any reason to hide it, so she briefly mentioned her exercise routine from morning till evening.

The exercise process was grueling. Every time slot had been strictly planned and the margin of error couldn’t exceed ten minutes, which made Li Li almost disbelieve that He Jinxia could stick to it.

But He Jinxia had truly slimmed down!

Li Li’s eyes flickered, and she thought of something else.

She looked around and, seeing no one was coming over, leaned in closer to He Jinxia and asked quietly in her ear, "Did you have any surgery?"

He Jinxia’s expression remained unchanged as she shook her head, "No, Sister Li Li, you should also know that if I had liposuction, some nerves in the fat would be damaged. If that happened, I’d be completely stiff and couldn’t move, let alone exercise to lose weight."

Li Li said so, but she didn’t believe that He Jinxia had not used other means besides liposuction for weight loss.

More accurately, she didn’t believe that He Jinxia had genuinely relied on exercise for weight loss.

Outsiders don’t understand the tricks of the entertainment circle, but as someone inside the circle, how could Li Li not understand?

Those aging actresses are called by the media "rejuvenated," "age-defying beauty," claiming to rely on healthy routines and exercise—bullshit!

No one can avoid aging, the non-aging effects come from medical beauty treatments.

Could He Jinxia’s successful weight loss also be due to medical procedures?

As soon as Li Li thought of this, she was itching to know; even with technological advancements, body weight is still a persistent issue for all actresses.

"Jinxia, just tell me, I promise, I won’t tell anyone!" Li Li looked at her with big, sincere eyes as she spoke earnestly.

He Jinxia’s lips curled into a soft smile, her classical and stunning face immediately became gentle, especially those eyes. With a hint of shyness and seductiveness, seemingly too shy to speak as if they could talk, briefly mesmerizing Li Li.

In her ears, He Jinxia’s voice came through warmly and softly, "Sister Li Li, exercise is the fairest. As long as you are willing to put in the effort, it will definitely reward you. I truly slimmed down through devilish workouts, aside from exercise, there are no other methods."

Li Li snapped back to reality, frowning slightly and imperceptibly pursing her lips before continuing the conversation with He Jinxia for a bit, then stood up and left.

After resting a bit more, He Jinxia was called by the director to go shoot her scenes.

It might have been because Wu Daxi hadn’t acted opposite her for a long time, but her performance was always off, causing Dong Qinn to scowl for quite a while.

When an actor’s performance is poor and they always fail to get into the scene, and the film crew needs to rush the progress, what can be done?

They could only grind through the time, shooting whatever little they could.

The crew dragged it out until nine at night before wrapping up.

Actually, Dong Qinn wanted to continue shooting, ready to work overtime and stay up all night if necessary.

However, after the incident a few months ago where He Jinxia fainted, her crew was being monitored by people sent from Sheng Yan, making it practically impossible for the actors to work through the night.

Thinking of this, Dong Qinn glanced resentfully at He Jinxia, who was oblivious and quickly packed up to take a shower in her room.

By the time she was almost ready, Luo You also arrived at the set to take her to the company for a meeting.

They had very important matters to discuss, and the set wasn’t a good place for conversation. On the other hand, He Jinxia had to shoot during the day and couldn’t find the time to leave, so Luo You had to opt for discussing with her at night.

In Tonghua Entertainment, inside the second-floor meeting room.

Luo You handed He Jinxia a document to review first while talking about the W social media servers crashing at dawn.

Speaking of this, his face was beaming and the corners of his mouth couldn’t stop lifting as he said, "It was a godsend opportunity and topic. In the dead of night, W social media jammed for a full hour, and the incoming traffic at one point reached hundreds of millions."

Even though these hundreds of millions didn’t only pertain to Hua Country’s traffic but included other countries as well, it was still incredibly formidable given that Hua Country had a population of only several billions, and the usual traffic on W social media was only in the tens of millions.

"Thanks to our marketing, your trendiness started soaring from midnight and has stayed high. With this momentum, it looks set to rule for a week—this is an explosive level of trending."

Luo You looked at her and said, "You don’t use W social media much, so you probably aren’t very aware of your current trendiness and the number of W social media followers you have, are you?"

He Jinxia slightly furrowed her brow and asked, "A lot?"

Luo You scrutinized her for a moment and seeing confusion written all over her face, he couldn’t help but twitch his mouth slightly and waved his hand, saying, "It’s my mistake, I shouldn’t have asked you."

He Jinxia: "..." It would be nice if your face didn’t show so much disdain, thank you.

In the background, Luo You’s voice continued to speak: "A lot, of course!"

"In the past half year, your W social media topic search volume ranked third, and the amount of discussion was first. I won’t bore you with the specific numbers, but you just need to know that barring any accidents, the title of ’Trending Queen’ for the second half of the year will be yours."

"It’s a glory to surpass a bunch of first-rate stars as a second-rate one. It’s not something just anyone can do. You’ve created a miracle, and as for your W social media fans, they have surpassed the ten-million mark, which is a considerable number among second-rate celebrities."

Luo You spoke a bit excitedly, hoping to see a happy expression on He Jinxia’s face, yet her expression remained calm.

As if guessing what was on Luo You’s mind, He Jinxia pondered for a moment before speaking softly,

"This honor isn’t won by me alone; it’s won by you, Uncle Zhang, and other PR personnel behind the scenes. I’m very happy, but I won’t take all the credit. Please arrange a time for me to treat you and Uncle Zhang to a meal."

Upon hearing this, Luo You felt an inexplicable sense of gratification.

Who else could be as lucky as him, managing an artist who practically handles her career without needing much worry from him, and still methodically arranges her life and social relationships?

He wondered just how blind Zhang Yingru must have been to kick such an outstanding talent out of the girl group!
