“You’re not angry?”
Jiang se did not expect such a reaction from Xia Chaoqun. She could not help but ask.
She furrowed her brows. It was obvious that she did not want to say anything unnecessary. However, since Jiang se had asked her a question, she forced herself to say, ”
“If I’m angry, can your father give up on the idea of kidnapping?”
Jiang se was speechless. What had happened had already happened. What was the point of saying all this now?
She understood the meaning behind Xia Chaoqun’s words. He probably thought that she had asked a useless question.
“What did Crown Prince PEI say?”
“Ah Yi is not called Crown Prince PEI.” Jiang se rubbed her nose and answered obediently, ”
“He said he needed some time.”
“Alright, I got it.”
She nodded and started to pack up the things on the table.
“You don’t have to worry about anything else. Just focus on promoting ‘a chance of survival’.”
It was a troublesome matter, but it did not seem like a big deal to Xia Chaoqun. Jiang se heaved a sigh of relief.
There was still a week to the release of ‘a chance of survival’, and the France Film Festival was coming to an end. The domestic publicity for’ a chance of survival ‘was overwhelming.
Liu Ye and Jiang se had worked together once again for this movie after ” demon. the fans who had watched ” demon ” in the past were very optimistic about the movie.
Those who had watched Jiang SE’s character in ” the demon ” two years ago no longer had any doubts about her acting skills. However, before the release of ” a chance of survival, ” some people had wondered if Jiang se could create another character that was even more impressive than Zhang Yuqin.
Many of Jiang SE’s, Liu Ye’s, and Zhang Jingan’s fans had been worried about this problem when the movie entered its promotional period.
However, as the France Film Festival unfolded and ” a chance of survival ” was first screened at the French Film Festival, Film Critics at home and abroad who had watched it first, as well as critics from major news media, had already given good reviews.
Schpeien, who had been attracted by ” the demon ” back then, even ignored his own physical discomfort and specially accepted the invitation of the organizers of the France Film Festival to watch ” a chance to live ” first. On his official personal page, after watching ” a chance to live “, he only posted one sentence: two years ago, when I watched ‘demon’, I was worried that Liu Ye’s acting skills would overshadow Jiang SE’s collaboration with Liu Ye. Two years later, when I watched a chance to live, I realized that the two of them were already on par.
Such a review, even if it didn’t involve the plot, was enough to make the blood of the domestic film fans boil!
Some people had also suspected that Shu Peien had written such words and not mentioned a single word about the plot because “a chance of survival” was lacking in content and had only used director Zhang Jingan and the male and female leads as gimmicks.
In the face of such doubts, Shu Peien replied in a rare manner, ” I’m not writing the plot not because I have nothing to say, but because I want to save what I want to say for after ‘a chance of survival’ wins an award and it’s released in the country. I’ll then write a film review to share the joy with everyone!
This was the first time in Shu Peien’s life that he had ever been so cautious.
His actions had also ignited the anticipation of local film fans for ‘a chance of survival’. The movie had not been released yet and was still in pre-sales, but the box office sales had been rising in the name of the director, the male and female leads, as well as the consistent good reviews from the media and film Critics.
The domestic audience was well aware of Zhang Jingan’s reputation. As an internationally renowned director, none of Zhang Jingan’s movies had disappointed his fans.
Not to mention that the male lead was Liu Ye, who had won the ‘Best Actor’ award at the French Film Festival. Together with Jiang se, who shupeien had high hopes for, “a chance of survival “‘s pre-sales box office sales had already reached 300 million in just a few days.
The movie had yet to be released, but there was already a rush of ticket sales in the early stages.
Meanwhile, bad rumors about Jiang se began to spread in the country.
In the beginning, it was a few influential media outlets that released the news. They pointed out that Jiang SE’s dress during the French Film Festival was not pretty and that she had put on weight and was not in a good condition.
Later on, the media released similar news one after another. Someone even released a few photos of a plump girl with her head lowered and unkempt hair, pointing out that it was Jiang se.
With Jiang SE’s current popularity in China, any news related to her would quickly spread. In less than an hour, the headlines of China Entertainment’s news section were basically: Jiang SE’s figure had gone out of shape due to her weight. She was disgraced and thrown out of China by her disheveled clothes!
She was still sleeping when he Cong received a call from his best friend.
Recently, she had received a draft and was in the middle of working on it. She had been busy until four in the morning last night before she had washed up and laid down. When her best friend called, she had taken a look at the time and it was not even 10:30.
She had slept for less than six hours. Her eyes were red and her tone was bad.
“Have you heard? Jiang se had gained weight! She’s become ugly and even her photos are out!”
Her best friend’s tone was a little complicated. When he Cong heard that it was related to Jiang se, he immediately perked up.
He Cong had been paying attention to Jiang se ever since her first film was released.
She had personally witnessed how this girl had walked step by step from Zhao rang’s “the 99th love letter” to where she was now.
The strange thing was that she was clearly not Jiang SE’s fan back then. When she watched “love letter “, she watched it for cui Xing’s sake. However, she never missed out on any of Jiang SE’s movies.
Every time someone said that she was Jiang SE’s fan and informed her of Jiang SE’s latest updates, He Cong would think that she was not. Unlike Jiang SE’s other fans, she did not follow Jiang SE’s every update like crazy, argue with others for her, refuse to watch the movie starring Tao cen, who she had a conflict with, or even badmouth her.
She would occasionally refresh Jiang SE’s homepage to see if there were any new updates.
However, whenever Jiang SE’s movies were released, he would obediently pay to watch the premiere of her movies. He would marvel at her every time and could not help but write a film review.
It had been more than six years since Jiang se entered the industry. He Cong had personally witnessed the girl stunning him from “love letter” to China.
He Cong had been observing Jiang se for many years. He believed that he had some understanding of her.
She was a very strict girl, which could be seen from the time she entered the entertainment industry at a young age and became famous until now.
Jiang se had been in the industry for many years. She did not have many works, but each of them was a masterpiece. Her acting skills were improving at a speed that everyone could see.
At the same time, she did not fall behind in her studies. Back then, she was able to enter the first Imperial University. During her years as a celebrity, she did not fall behind in her textbook knowledge. Furthermore, the year before last, she graduated with excellent results in two subjects at the first Imperial University. This already required a very strong will.
For a girl of her age to be able to put her studies aside for her career, to lose weight for a role in “the demon “, how could anyone with such willpower not believe that she would easily let herself be sloppy?
Jiang se was very strict with her management. This could be seen from her attitude toward her studies and work.
As a celebrity, she knew that she had to bring a positive influence to her fans, so although she kept a low profile, every time she appeared in newspapers and magazines, she was radiant.
Even when she was photographed in private, even when she was bare-faced, she rarely looked dispirited, let alone wearing the wrong clothes and embarrassing herself out of China!
The first thought that came to He Cong’s mind was whether Jiang se had offended someone and was being slandered on purpose.
