Chapter 86: Chapter 86: Saving the Day with Strength

He Jinxia paused, turned her head, and looked at the red-faced journalist who had shouted out with a still impeccable smile on her lips and exuded an aura of calm confidence. It was gentle as a mild breeze, yet as carefree as clouds drifting across the sky.

After a moment of thought, she made a decision in her heart.

The microphone by her ear was still on, and in the next second, her crisp and pleasant voice filled the entire hall:

"Whether on the big screen or the small screen, I am an actor. It’s an actor’s mission to excel in the roles they play and to bring better works to the audiences. As long as the role is well-crafted, I am willing to take it on."

He Jinxia scanned the crowd, her smile fading into seriousness as she said, "I’m very grateful to the ’Small Bridge, Flowing Water, People’ production team for giving me this opportunity to play the role of ’Su Qingwan.’

The character has a wide range of personality changes, from the initial innocence and kindness of Su Qingwan to her later ruthless transformation. Her character embodies the sadness imposed on women by the feudal system of ancient times.

Su Qingwan is lucky because she didn’t completely succumb to fate and lead a dull, numb life, but she is also unfortunate because she is trapped in a feudal cage, unable to escape for her whole life, not able to be with the one she loves."

He Jinxia took a deep breath and said, "I was very nervous when I received this role; it is a challenge for me, and I will do my best to perform well. Thank you all for your support!"

She looked down at the ancient costume she was wearing, thought for a moment, and then gave the media reporters a graceful and dignified curtsy.

Her ancient curtsy was smooth and natural, and as she moved, she exuded the aura of a refined lady from ancient times.

Everyone was taken aback, as if they had truly seen a slim and graceful lady from the past presenting a curtsy before them, then fading away just as slowly, like a gentle breeze that leaves no trace.

Although He Jinxia had left, her legend remained in the live broadcast.

In the live video, netizens were boiling with excitement, tapping out their comments in a flurry, repeating them over and over, dominating the entire screen.

"He Jinxia powerfully saves the day!" became the most frequently repeated comment in the video. As the video circulated, along with the hot search term "Car accident at Small Bridge, Flowing Water, People press conference," it became visible to everyone.

He Jinxia’s PR team had been monitoring the directions of Weibo and various self-media channels since the car accident on the set of ’Small Bridge, Flowing Water, People.’ The moment they saw the hot search term "He Jinxia powerfully saves the day", they immediately began public relations work!

It was a familiar scene, the same old strategy, but this time the hot search term was not about "He Jinxia’s weight loss," but "He Jinxia powerfully saves the day!"

Both types of hot searches seemed no different to the general public, who just noticed that this He Jinxia had been frequently trending lately. However, to industry insiders, it represented another signal.

The previous "weight loss" term might have been associated with popular topics of public interest, but this time "powerfully saves the day" was a hot search based entirely on He Jinxia’s own abilities.

This shift led many astute industry insiders to speculate: Could He Jinxia have already started on a path to promotion, moving towards becoming a higher-level A-list star?

The entertainment circle seems large, but it is actually quite small, with the best resources concentrated in the hands of A-listers, with only occasional bits trickling down to the second- and third-tier stars.

The rise of each second-tier star would mean the possibility of another person fighting for a share of the A-listers’ spotlight, which is why sometimes A-listers might even unite to suppress rising second-tier stars.

These are the competitive rules within the circle, with battles among those at the top and fights among those at the bottom. For those lower down who want to climb up, they must face the challenges posed by those above.

Although harsh, it must be said that this rule has excluded many second-tier celebrities who are famous but lack real talent from rising up; of course, there are also many truly talented second-tier stars who have been maliciously suppressed.

Every second-tier celebrity aspiring to become top-tier has a history of dominating the screens for over half a year, where opening a phone browser means finding at least one of ten news articles about them, and opening a phone or TV means seeing at least one of ten advertisements featuring them...

Only by pervasively penetrating people’s lives for more than half a year can they accumulate the popularity necessary to ascend to top-tier celebrity status.

And He Jinxia was undoubtedly on this pervasive path.

Inside the hotel, when He Jinxia reached the emergency exit, Luo You was already waiting by the door. His face wasn’t too unsightly. Upon seeing He Jinxia, he immediately said, "Let’s not talk now, we’ll talk after we get away!"

Once they got into the car and successfully lost the paparazzi chasing them, Luo You drove directly to the company.

Tonghua Entertainment had very robust security measures that could largely ensure the privacy of celebrities once they entered the company’s premises.

He Jinxia was still wearing the costume from the set, a tender green that stood out sharply among a crowd of down jackets and fleece pants. As soon as she entered the company, she immediately drew the attention of many passersby in the lobby.

Luo You escorted her, quickly taking the elevator to the second floor.

Pushing open a conference room door on the second floor that was temporarily unused, He Jinxia stepped inside a step ahead of Luo You, when suddenly, the sound of balloons being popped suddenly resounded—

"Surprise!!"

He Jinxia was startled, her entire body covered in confetti and streamers, with the buzzing sound of party horns around her ears and golden flakes filling her vision.

She patted her chest with her hand, still with a frightened look, glaring at Tony who approached her. Behind Tony stood Cheng Xiaohua and several strangers, all looking at her with smiling faces.

Feigning fear, Tony quickly took a few steps back, "Darling, I’m so scared, Jinxia’s going to eat someone!"

The elegant man leaned against another muscular man; the scene looked every bit like that of a beauty and the beast scenario.

Tony’s lover was named Bruce, with the typical look of a European. He was gently patting Tony’s shoulder, smiling and saying, "Honey, your acting isn’t convincing at all, who looks scared while smiling?"

"Hahaha!" The crowd couldn’t help but laugh at his words.

While He Jinxia was still confused about the situation, Luo You, who had waited outside for a while, came in and clapped his hands, saying:

"Alright, enough play. You all should introduce yourselves quickly, don’t you see that the soul of our team still doesn’t have a clue what’s going on?"

"Hahaha!" The crowd responded with another round of friendly smiles.

Leaving Bruce’s embrace, Tony approached He Jinxia and bowed elegantly, taking her hand and giving it a kissed hand greeting, "Dear Princess Jinxia, I’d like to formally introduce myself, I am your exclusive styling consultant—Tony!"

He Jinxia stared at him blankly, her mind still muddled.
