Chapter 843: Chapter 843: Endorsent Revoked
The guests collectively froze.
The host reacted the fastest, imdiately laughing loudly to smooth over the situation: “Jiaxu, what’s going on, you splashed the wrong person, you were supposed to splash He Jincheng, why did you splash her instead!”
Li Jiaxu had a remorseful look, covering her mouth, as if she really forgot the rules and splashed Du Huaixi by mistake.
Only Du Huaixi knew she did it on purpose.
In the audience.
Huo Tinghan’s expression darkened slightly.
Especially seeing Du Huaixi all wet, his eyebrows knitted tightly.
Huo Zijin said speechlessly, “What’s Li Jiaxu doing.”
Li Junyan said, “She seed to have done it on purpose.”
On stage.
A guest handed a towel to Du Huaixi.
She carefully wiped the water off her face.
Beside her, Li Jiaxu laughed mockingly, “An costics company will approach you soon to endorse their foundation. With so much water splashed, your makeup hasn’t even smudged a bit.”
Female celebrities fear their makeup smudging the most.
Due to filming, reversing ti zones and schedules being upside down is common.
Many actresses have poor skin conditions and need heavy concealers and foundation.
Du Huaixi, however, didn’t have such worries.
Although she’s not easily slim, she strictly controls her diet, yet she’s famous for her good skin, to the point where she can appear bare-faced on cara.
Du Huaixi looked at Li Jiaxu and said, “If there’s a makeup removal segnt, not only will costics companies approach for endorsents, but even skincare ads will co to too.”
The host said, “Our Tang Zhi has extraordinarily good skin. Just earlier backstage, I bumped into her with a bare face, not a blemish in sight, not even visible pores.”
Facing the cara, Du Huaixi said, “For skincare endorsents, please contact my agent.”
The audience imdiately burst into laughter.
With Du Huaixi and the host managing to salvage the situation, the awkwardness quietly dissipated.
Li Jiaxu also sowhat regretted her impulsiveness, walked over to the host, and asked in a low voice, “Can that part be cut later?”
The audience might not have reacted yet.
But when the show airs, she worries that so might edit the show into clips, analyzing her facial expressions and hand movents, and publish news to sar her for playing gas and bullying Du Huaixi.
Du Huaixi’s fans are quite terrifying.
If they find out their idol was bullied, given Li Jiaxu’s status, her entire Weibo and official accounts would be overwheld by her fans.
The host awkwardly smiled but didn’t answer her question.
Anyone with eyes could see that Li Jiaxu was using the show to exact personal revenge, trying to make Du Huaixi look bad on cara.
Little did she know, Du Huaixi’s makeup was so resilient, not even a layer ca off.
The ga continued.
He Jincheng was getting emotional too.
Having fild with Du Huaixi for so long, they beca good friends, and watching soone bully his friend made him especially serious about this round of the ga.
Soon, the new round resulted in winners and losers!
Du Huaixi, quick on her feet, splashed water on An Chen.
Through the entire confrontation, An Chen was practically soaked from the waist up.
But helplessly, this is Du Huaixi we’re talking about.
Which male star in the entertainnt circle doesn’t want to work with Du Huaixi?
Du Huaixi is famously beneficial for her male co-stars; whoever acts with her becos popular.
So, An Chen didn’t want to feud with her, knowing that it was their team’s mber who provoked first.
During the intermission.
Du Huaixi headed backstage.
Ms. Xue walked in after opening the door and saw her hair was already half dry. She picked up a comb to adjust her hairstyle.
“That Li Jiaxu is too much! She thinks you’re easy to bully because you’re kind, pushing it too far. If it were , I’d have lost my temper on the spot.”
Du Huaixi said, “At that critical mont, confronting the other party in front of caras would only attract negativity.”
Every action of a star is magnified and interpreted.
Originally, this was Li Jiaxu’s fault. Had Du Huaixi lost her temper on the spot, there would likely be netizens saying she couldn’t handle losing.
By then, everything would be her fault.
To reach this level of status, Du Huaixi was known for her cautiousness and tolerance whenever possible.
Moreover, Li Jiaxu’s move was one of self-sabotage.
She was still on the rise, and having such negative behavior on the show was unwise.
Furthermore…
Huo Tinghan was present.
He certainly wouldn’t tolerate it.
…
As expected.
A word of truth.
Just as Li Jiaxu returned to the makeup room, her manager hurriedly ca over, phone in hand, as if he had just finished a call.
“It’s bad, really bad… ”
Seeing her manager so anxious, Li Jiaxu asked in surprise, “What’s wrong?”
The manager said, “I just got a call from the company saying you’ve lost a comrcial opportunity!”
Li Jiaxu imdiately stood up: “What comrcial opportunity?”
Manager: “Didn’t we previously secure a comrcial for you? Finally helped you secure it, but now it’s gone! Apparently, the executives were dissatisfied with you and directly revoked your opportunity!”
Li Jiaxu’s mouth opened slightly.
The manager continued, sowhat speechless: “Moreover… I found out they confird Du Huaixi as the new endorser.”
Li Jiaxu’s face imdiately flushed red, and she threw the foundation box in her hand to the ground: “Why?! Why her?!”
The manager said, “I heard the executives were on-site, watching the recording of the show. Your performance on stage made them very displeased, so one phone call, and they revoked your endorsent.”
Li Jiaxu widened her eyes: “This endorsent was very important to …”
Now, the contract was in its final stages.
All promotional materials and videos had been prepared.
She had even publicly shared so of it on Weibo.
Now, with the endorsent suddenly revoked.
By then, she would inevitably be ridiculed by netizens!
Li Jiaxu said, “What did I do on stage that was so bad to make executives upset?”
The manager said, “Could it be… it was splashing Du Huaixi with that glass of water that upset the executives?”
Li Jiaxu: “What’s splashing her with water got to do with my endorsent?”
The manager: “Maybe, the executives feared the water-splashing incident with Du Huaixi, once aired, would attract negativity and fan backlash, so they preemptively withdrew your endorsent. Jiaxu, you were foolish. Regardless of any issues you have with Du Huaixi, you shouldn’t do such things in front of the cara! It’s too excessive!”
Yet, Li Jiaxu nonchalantly replied, “What’s the problem! The show hasn’t aired yet. I’ll just have the production team cut that part out, and it’ll be fine?”
The manager nodded: “Regardless of the endorsent situation, splashing water, indeed, isn’t appropriate to air. I’ll ask the TV station managent to edit that part out.”
