Chapter 9: Jealousy

  Are stars just for shooting commercials?

  Of course not!

  It can be said that no one who only shoots commercials can become a world-renowned superstar. On the other hand, only after becoming famous in the music industry, variety shows, film and television, etc., will there be opportunities to shoot large-scale commercials, but why did Qin Yan only let Jiang Xiaoying shoot commercials?

  Jiang Xiaoyan had also asked before, Qin Yan's answer was very simple: Which path do you want to take? Is it singing or acting in movies and TV shows?

  Singing?

  She is now underperforming in her singing career and it's almost impossible for her to become popular.

  Even if luck turns red, a poor foundation will soon be eliminated. Having an idol-like appearance is not enough; to become a true superstar, one must have the capital of a power player, which Jiang Xiaoyan currently lacks. She must continue to perform in bars and continue to improve under Qin Yan's guidance.

  Film and television?

  This duet song and playing piano may not have much requirements, but for someone who has no performing experience, isn't it even more difficult?

  To put it bluntly, he let Jiang Xiaoyu continuously take on advertisements, which is to say that through the advertisement shooting, she can gradually accumulate acting experience and prepare for a future meteoric rise. At the same time, in the process of filming advertisements, she can become somewhat familiar with the industry, although currently it's not possible to take on any large productions, but through these small and medium-sized advertisements, at the very least she can show her face on screen.

  It was a process of accumulating popularity among a small group of people and accumulating a lot of performance experience, during which he continued to learn singing and playing the piano from Qin Yan.

  Of course, an all-around superstar must know how to dance. Jiang Xiaoyan can dance, but her dancing skills are only amateurish. Qin Yan has already planned to train in this area.

  With Kong Zhengfeng's help, the advertising contract is definitely in hand.

  It can be imagined that Jiang Xiaoyan will be very busy in the following days, TV commercials, outdoor advertisements, newspapers and magazine-like flat advertisements...

  Everyone was young, and several of them had a good relationship with each other, so they weren't afraid of running out of conversation topics. For a time, the atmosphere at the table was lively as they clinked glasses and changed cups.

  When Gong Zhengfeng, Su Hao and Qin Yan were drinking together, Jiang Xiaoyan occasionally stole glances at Qin Yan. When Lu Yan, who was a bit infatuated with Gong Zhengfeng, blocked his drink, the long-legged beauty Zhang Yingying and Su Hao's girlfriend Tan Zixian whispered to each other. No one noticed Xia Weiwei's complex expression.

  Can't put into words what's in my heart.

  Su Ying's three great goddesses gathered in this box, and in the past, she was undoubtedly the one with the most momentum and fame among the three great goddesses.

  She has shot many advertisements and has performed at fashion shows for several companies. She has also acted in a TV series, although not as the female lead.

  Tan Zixiang's family background is said to be very good, but for some reason, she did not enter the entertainment industry, so her fame was limited to Su Ying School. As for Jiang Xiaoying, she didn't have a family background like Tan Zixiang's, and before this, she hadn't even shot a simple flat advertisement.

  But what about now?

  Everyone used to know that Tan Zixiang had a boyfriend, but that guy named Su Hao was low-key and drove a Chevrolet, in everyone's eyes he was just considered to be slightly wealthy.

  However, after real contact, especially the attitude of Pingjiang City's famous young hero Kong Zhengfeng today, and Su Hao's special temperament, she was almost 100% sure that this guy's background was extremely terrifying. Otherwise, how could ordinary people remain calm in front of such a hero like Kong Zhengfeng?

  Yes, Tan Zixuan found a capable boyfriend, which is something Xia Weiwei can't match!

  Then there's Jiang Xiaoyu, who was once the weakest among the three goddesses, with no good family background and had not yet started her career in the entertainment industry.

  It's obvious that with Kong Zhengfeng's strong support, she will make a big splash in this circle.

  Although shooting commercials will never make her a superstar, it's an opportunity. Summer doesn't care about one commercial contract, but what if there were ten? One hundred?

  There are two ways for stars in the entertainment industry to become popular. One is to rise to fame overnight, and the other is to gradually accumulate popularity. If Kong Zhengfeng really gave all his endorsement deals to Jiang Xiaoying, even if they were just some regional small and medium-sized advertisements, at least it would be possible to cover Pingjiang City and even Wu State.

  At that time, Jiang Xiaoying's figure could be seen on buses, bus stops, outdoor large screens, roadside billboards, TVs, newspapers, magazines and other media. By then, it would be hard for her not to become famous, and her popularity would far surpass that of Xia Weiwei.

  Women are prone to jealousy, even if the other party is a close friend or confidante.

  Xia Weiwei wasn't jealous of Tan Zixuan finding a boyfriend with a good background, because she believed that with her looks and fame, if she wanted to find one, she could also find one just as easily, but she couldn't help feeling jealous of Jiang Xiaoying.

  Can't Xia Weiwei become popular?

  No!

  If she is willing to pay some price, she can also become popular, even very popular, and even if she can't become a first-line superstar, it's still possible to mix with a second-line star.

  However, in order to achieve such results, she has to pay a price. She doesn't have billions of dollars or a powerful father who can help her get ahead; all she can offer is her body.

  She's not that kind of person. If she was willing to trade her body for opportunities, would she still be just a small-time celebrity like today?

  What about Jiang Xiaoying?

  It was precisely because she and Jiang Xiaoyan became good friends that she knew everything about her.

  What did she pay for?

  No!

  Others may not know, but Xiaowei is very clear that Jiang Xiaoying and Qin Yan have nothing to do with each other. In fact, she also knows that Jiang Xiaoying has long had a crush on Qin Yan, who doesn't have any romantic thoughts about her.

  Jiang Xiaoyan didn't spend any money or physical effort, but instead Qin Yan helped her solve problems one after another, helped her avoid trouble, helped her make a scene at the annual dance party, helped her get advertisements, even spent his own money to help her package herself, and gave her opportunities to learn from resident singers - all of these were unconditional.

  Goods compare goods will be thrown away, people compare people will die.

  However, she didn't think she was inferior to Jiang Xiaoyan in any way, and instead had the upper hand in many aspects, but the result turned out to be unexpectedly different.

  "It's all because of him!"

  Xia Weiwei took a surreptitious glance at Qin Yan, looking at this sloppy man who was drinking with Su Hao and Kong Zhengfeng, and couldn't help but secretly sigh in her heart.

  Why does Jiang Xiaoyu have a trend of soaring to the sky?

  Isn't it because of this man?

  He's an enigmatic man, and thinking about the things he's done, thinking about how he made Su Ying and hundreds of girls fall for him at the annual dance party, Xia Weiwei suddenly felt that she had been too self-willed: relying solely on her own preferences to bother him, trying to make him lose face time and again, but in the end, it was always herself who ended up losing face.

  For some reason, she thought of the last time Green Group's advertisement was filmed, and she was taken advantage of: she only knew the other party's identity later.

  The son of Pingjiang City's Deputy Mayor Han Baichuan is Han Jun Guang!

  Although it is said that her brother Han Junrui had pursued her, Xia Weiwei was very clear that Han Junrui really liked her and did not use despicable means, so she was sensible. Although she did not agree to a relationship, she also did not speak ill of him, because she did not dare to offend such a person to death.

  To put it bluntly, whether it's Han Junhua or Han Junguang, if they really use unscrupulous means, she can't resist the fate of being played with.

  That time, she thoroughly offended Han Junguang, and if things continued to develop, the consequences would be unimaginable!

  But!

  At the most critical moment, Qin Yan appeared. The guy who had always been looking for trouble for himself blocked Han Jun Guang's slap. That second-generation ancestor later inexplicably committed suicide.

  Yes, suicide.

  All evidence suggests that he committed suicide, but as a person with normal intelligence, Xia Weiwei is very clear that Han Junguang cannot commit suicide.

  That time, he stood in front of himself, blocking the slap that was coming straight for him. Shouldn't he be grateful in his heart?

  But why, seeing him again still angry, still want to find trouble with him?

  Xia Weiwei was different from Jiang Xiaoying, that silly girl was too simple-minded, while she was good at analyzing: if it was said that before, she always fought with him because of the not-so-good encounter at first, which left a bad impression on her, then after that rescue, her attitude should have changed completely.

  So...

  The analysis results left Xiaowei stunned: a woman always finds trouble with a man, either because she is jealous of the women around him or because... she has fallen in love with this man!

  No!

  Xia Weiwei was startled by the result and hastily denied: "I must be a little jealous of Xiaoyan's luck, it's absolutely not because I like him, how is that possible?"

  Jiang Xiaoying, who was sitting next to her, found that she wasn't speaking and her face looked a bit strange, so she quickly asked: "Vivian, what's wrong? Are you uncomfortable?"

  "Nothing... nothing at all... I'll just go wash up."

  Afraid of being seen through, Xia Weiwei hastily found an excuse to leave: go to the restroom for a while, and let her emotions calm down before coming back.

  She went to the restroom and everyone didn't think much, those who should eat ate, those who should drink drank, those who should brag bragged. At this time, Kong Zhengfeng was already three-tenths drunk.

  No way, his drinking capacity is pretty good, but compared to Qin Yan and Su Hao, it's not just a little bit worse.

  Suddenly!

  Jiang Xiaoying, who was secretly gazing at Qin Yan with a deep and meaningful look in her eyes, heard the phone's message tone and opened it to see her face change greatly.

  "Vivian's in trouble!" Her voice brought a sudden hush to the lively banquet.

  "That woman always can't get along with Yan Ge, what does it have to do with us if she gets into trouble?" Su Hao likes beautiful women, but he doesn't like beautiful women who go against Qin Yan.

  "But..."

  "I'll go take a look."

  Before Jiang Xiaoying could retort, Qin Yan stood up. He indeed didn't have a good impression of Xia Weiwei, but she was after all Jiang Xiaoying's friend and the guest Jiang Xiaoying had invited today. As her agent, he had reason to help Jiang Xiaoying out: "You two continue, where is she?"

  Seeing Qin Yan willing to help, Jiang Xiaoying's hanging heart finally put down: "She just said she was going to the bathroom, and the message she sent me only had two words - save me."

  Obviously, Xavi suddenly ran into trouble and didn't have time to say much, so she could only explain the situation in a few words.

  "How can I be left out of this?" Su Hao was not nervous at all, but instead looked very excited, and Tan Zijuan also stood up with him.

  "I can handle it myself." Qin Yanfeng quickly walked away, leaving behind a sentence.

  "I didn't say you can't solve it, I just went to watch the excitement." Su Hao hehe smiled strangely, pulling his girlfriend to catch up, afraid of missing a good show.

  "And I...I..."

  Kong Zhengfeng, who was already a bit drunk and dizzy, jumped up with great righteousness, grabbing an empty wine bottle and following closely behind.

  With three big men leading the way, the remaining girls also gained courage and followed Kong Zhengfeng.
