He Jinxia readily agreed, "When I first arrived at the film crew, I had ntioned it to the director, and the director said it was okay. He is very supportive of going to the awards ceremony. I guess he wants to expand my influence in Huaxia a bit more, so that the film can make more at the box office when it is released in Huaxia."
Luo You thought for a mont and said, "If that’s the case, you should pay attention to the vote for the audience’s favorite supporting actress. Recently, Huami released your advertisent, which brought you a new batch of fans. You are barely holding onto first place, but the difference between you and the second place is not large."
He Jinxia thought for a mont and asked, "Who is in second place?"
Luo You replied, "It’s the actress from ’You Are My Little Happiness.’ Her high number of votes is still related to He Minqing. He Minqing has been crazily canvassing for votes, not just for herself but also for the supporting actors and actresses in the crew."
"Because of He Minqing’s image in campus dramas, she attracted a lot of first love fans. These fans are mostly male, mostly in their adolescence, and the purchasing power of students grows every year. They are willing to spend money, so she is also one of the craziest actresses when it cos to buying votes."
Upon hearing this, He Jinxia nonchalantly said, "The tree that stands out in the forest is the first to be brought down by the wind. The selection at the Golden Eagle Festival is chosen by the people. Once soone starts the trend of buying votes, other celebrities will follow suit."
"Moreover, she is competing for the audience’s favorite leading actress, also known as the Golden Eagle Goddess, and there are veteran actresses competing against her."
"In terms of financial resources, those actresses will only have more than she does. In terms of fan base, they will also have a larger following than her, a newcor. If it really cos down to buying votes, He Minqing might not outspend them."
Luo You nodded, agreeing deeply, "That’s what I think as well. There are four days left until the voting channel closes. Let’s wait and see. He Minqing can only make a splash in the early days. During the most intense days of the competition, no one can guarantee they will have the last laugh until the very last mont."
He Jinxia continued chatting with Luo You for a while and then hung up the phone.
After hanging up, she imdiately clicked open the W-blog on her phone and wrote a ssage to canvas for herself, casually interacting and acting cute with the fans who ca after hearing the news.
A fan comnted, "In this lifeti, I finally see my Pang Hu canvassing for votes. Oddly, it feels comforting. I thought she was so aloof from worldly affairs that she didn’t care about anything. [crying][crying][heartbroken]"
With a slightly awkward expression, He Jinxia replied, "What the heck is Pang Hu? What do you an by being aloof from worldly affairs?"
This reply was imdiately comnted on by fans, pinning it in the top few comnts on her hopage so that many fans could see the comnt when they visited her page.
"Pang Hu, oh, Pang Hu is our affectionate na for Emperor Fat! [smart]"
"Aloof from worldly affairs = posting on W-blog only once a month = equivalent to not posting on W-blog = zombie account = nonexistent in the Mortal World = Feather Transformation Ascension"
"This vote must be cast. Now that my idol has spoken, who else could we vote for!"
"Emperor Fat, Emperor Fat, the greatest in the World! Who dares compete with Emperor Fat! Emperor Fat, Emperor Fat, the fattest in the World!"
...
As He Jinxia looked at the "fresh and refined" style of the comnt section, she couldn’t help but twitch the corners of her mouth slightly, suddenly feeling that each of her fans was a piece of work.
While scrolling through W-blog, suddenly, soone knocked on the door. Cheng Xiaohua ran to open it and found it was Ola.
Cheng Xiaohua exclaid her na, intentionally raising her voice a bit so that He Jinxia, who was still sitting on the couch using her phone, could hear.
Ola said to Cheng Xiaohua, "I’m here to see He Jinxia."
He Jinxia’s eyes flickered, and she put away her phone and stood up. Striding forward, she smiled and said, "Ola, what brings you here?"
Ola also smiled back at her and suddenly brought out the script she had hidden behind her, saying earnestly, "Sumr, do you have ti? I’d like to run through so scenes with you."
He Jinxia was startled.
Cheng Xiaohua was also stunned, murmuring, "Are you here to rehearse the scenes?"
Ola frowned, "Yes, if I’m not here to rehearse the scenes, why would I co looking for Sumr?"
Cheng Xiaohua swallowed back the words "You could also be here to pick a fight" silently and just turned to look at He Jinxia.
After her surprise, He Jinxia nodded and said gently, "Okay, I haven’t rested yet, co in. Let’s rehearse, we have a lot of scenes to sort out later."
Ola, hearing this, brightened up with a radiant smile and followed He Jinxia to the living room outside.
"I have a day off tomorrow, but I have plans to go out, so I won’t have ti to find you for rehearsing tomorrow. I had to make the ti tonight."
He Jinxia smiled, "You ca at the right ti, I also have plans to go out tomorrow. You might not have found if you ca tomorrow."
Foreigners speak straightforwardly without beating around the bush, so the conversation between He Jinxia and Ola was very casual.
At first, He Jinxia also thought that Ola had co to provoke a confrontation, perhaps to fiercely threaten her and then storm off after declaring she would not lose to her.
But after a few exchanges, she realized that Ola was here to rehearse the scenes.
Following Ola through several scenes, He Jinxia couldn’t help but nod internally; Ola was indeed serious about rehearsing, just as she had said—she was here to learn from her.
He Jinxia wouldn’t concern herself with people who beco complacent over small achievents; sooner or later, they would pay the price for their arrogance.
People like Ola were truly daunting—within the production team, they were competitors, never yielding to each other, always in fierce opposition.
But after a performance, knowing her shortcomings, Ola even ca to "the enemy" to learn, greatly surprising He Jinxia and earning her respect.
A temporary setback ant nothing; the truly great actors are those who learn from their sha and strive onwards!
The two continued through over a dozen scenes, their engagent so deep that ti silently slipped into the late night hours.
Under yet another prompt from Cheng Xiaohua, Ola finally agreed to stop, rising with a sense of admiration as she prepared to leave.
She said, "You are one of the strongest opponents I’ve faced. I admit, as an actor, I’m not as good as you, but I won’t give up. One day, I will surpass you!"
Watching the fiery determination in Ola’s eyes, He Jinxia couldn’t help but smile broadly, defiantly responding, "I won’t wait for you; I will keep forging ahead, and you’ll never catch up!"
Ola snorted, "We’ll see!"
Once the door closed, Cheng Xiaohua imdiately floated over, pinching her own face, then He Jinxia’s, and muttered as if sleepwalking, "Does it hurt?"
He Jinxia looked at her strangely and replied, "What do you think?"
Cheng Xiaohua pinched her own face again and drew a sharp breath, murmuring, "It hurts a lot!"
