Superstar's Development Diary-Chapter 752 - 753: Breaking the Rumors

Yu Yanyu and the others shook their heads again. Ren Xiao hesitated for a moment and said, "I think someone did actually consult us, but it wasn’t the show’s crew.

They did it through a newcomer guidance counselor who gave us psychological guidance and bluntly pointed out these issues, correcting our carefree attitudes."

He Jinxia nodded, "That’s right, the newcomer guidance counselor is there to help you integrate into the show quicker. Its importance goes without saying.

Everything he says is likely to be edited into the show. You don’t need to worry about that, just be yourselves when responding to him."

"The producer contacted me because they were worried about your unreliable behavior during the afternoon’s rescue of trapped individuals fearing that it wasn’t just a one-time occurrence and if it continued, it would be troublesome. So, they wanted me to give you a heads-up."

Being part of the entertainment circle means none are completely foolish, what Jinxia said was straightforward enough for Yu Yanyu and Qin Siqin to understand immediately.

They all breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it wasn’t about changing their personas, which would be a major issue, everything else could be resolved. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Yu Yanyu scratched his head, feeling embarrassed, "I was too excited when I saw you and hadn’t heard from you, so I couldn’t help but speak up. Before I knew it, we slipped back into our casual conversation and I forgot we still had people to rescue.

On the other hand, it’s also because in other reality shows, the crew likes this kind of interaction, which led us into misunderstanding."

Qin Siqin said, "My thoughts are the same as Yanyu’s, this reality show is very different from those I’ve done before. Jinxia, I am starting to believe what you said before. It really could become popular; I can see its potential."

He Jinxia said helplessly, "Although I am also optimistic about this show, you shouldn’t overpraise it. The show hasn’t aired yet, and no one can predict how it will turn out."

She paused solemnly, "As an investor, I will strictly oversee the show. If they don’t edit it well, I will definitely not let it air!"

If edited well, even if the show isn’t popular, the stars who participated won’t be criticized. If it does become popular, that’s even better, as both the program and the stars will gain a good reputation.

If the editing is bad, it’s slightly better if it isn’t popular. Netizens might complain but it won’t be excessive since fewer people will see it. But if it becomes popular... well, that would definitely be a disaster!

Whether it’s being responsible for the show or for her friends, Jinxia will take the editing seriously. She’d rather take a financial loss than let the reputations of the stars who participated be damaged.

He Jinxia’s assurance eased the minds of the stars who were skeptical about the reality show, making them feel more at ease.

With one issue resolved, everyone felt more relaxed, and their relationships grew a step closer.

Friendships are formed through interaction. If there is no time spent together, the bond between friends will gradually fade until they become strangers.

Every friendship needs to be nurtured with care.

After talking late into the night, He Jinxia decided to stay with the team, and only returned to Dongting Lake Garden early the next morning.

After taking a bath and freshening up at Dongting Lake Garden, she went to the company full of energy, and took the opportunity to dispel the online rumors about her "serious illness and hospitalization" and "car accident disfiguring her face," boosting her popularity in the process.

The news of He Jinxia’s car accident and hospitalization was known by netizens who, after several days, were still unable to find out any details about her illness. They only knew she had been in a hospital but had left soon after.

Not just the netizens, even the company’s top executives didn’t know where He Jinxia had gone, let alone that she had gone abroad.

She was abroad, but netizens at home were desperately searching for her, of course without a trace.

For a time, He Jinxia’s whereabouts became a mystery, and many unfavorable rumors started to emerge. As the person concerned did not make any public appearances, the rumors grew wilder.

Choosing to show up at this time, He Jinxia timed it just right. She debunked the rumors at their peak, reaping the popularity gained from earlier discussions and sparking a new wave of attention.

Although the new attention was not as enduring as the rumors, combined, they kept her popularity afloat for quite a while.

This method was akin to a celebrity pre-heating for a wedding in the entertainment circle.

Before announcing the relationship, they hype up that the two are soulmates and hint at a possible romance.

After a month of speculation, they pick a day to announce the two are in love and start giving out ’sweet treats’ to the public.

After years of giving treats, when everything is set, they start hyping up the wedding.

And how do they hype the wedding?

They start by stirring up the marriage topic for three or four months. Whenever the buzz begins to wane, they release news like "the couple was spotted looking at wedding rings together," "the couple is suspected of having an engagement party," "the couple was seen wearing matching rings," and so on—no shortage of recurring material!

As the hype goes on, when everyone knows and no longer wants to see and is just weary, that’s when they drop the marriage news, causing a blitz across the whole network, paralyzing Weibo.

If handled properly from the start, this approach can sustain discussions for three or four years, a tactic many stars like to use.

Compared to that, He Jinxia’s situation was just a short-term hype. The storm had emerged less than a week ago, and she needed to begin clarifications already.

After all, she was hale and hearty. Continuously hyping up her severe illness was somewhat ominous. On the other hand, if she didn’t quickly distance herself from the sickly rumors, it would become difficult to accept new work engagements.

He Jinxia arrived at the company and, following Luo You’s instructions, deliberately lingered at the reception for a good while. As more and more onlookers gathered, she gracefully entered the elevator and headed to the meeting room.

Online, it took less than 10 minutes for a photo captioned "He Jinxia looks radiant at the company" to be released. It was shared by many marketing accounts, quickly dispelling the rumors.

At the same moment, He Jinxia also posted on Weibo, informing everyone that she was in good health, had not suffered any injuries, and incidentally promoted the show she was currently filming, "Rescue 5 Hours."

Due to the photos of He Jinxia looking unbelievably healthy, which contradicted various online speculations, many netizens were still incredulous and swarmed Weibo to see for themselves, causing almost five minutes of lags!

He Jinxia innocently stated: she really didn’t know people would be so nosy ╮(╯▽╰)╭

On Weibo, while fans wished for their idol’s health, they also became curious about the reality show she promoted. Yet, most were more concerned about her well-being.

[Heartbroken, although I know you always work hard, don’t gamble with your life. If you’re in a car accident, just stay at home and rest for a few days. Don’t think you’re okay and go off filming a show, leading to exhaustion. That’s depleting your life’s potential!]

[Take good care of yourself. If you need money, we can give you some, darling. Don’t push yourself too hard!]

[[Angry][Angry] I won’t watch this show. Why don’t you rest properly instead of filming? I want to see more of you on the screen, but I don’t want you to collapse from exhaustion one day!]
