Chapter 609 A Group of Blessed "Silver-Haired Students": You Demolished the Barriers of Age, Letting Me See a Whole New Landscape
Jinli was unaware that her fans had placed advertisements for her.

She didn't have an official fan club, and the company didn't manage one either; everything was organized spontaneously by the fans.

This has led to her fan club not being a proper organization, nor being very influential; at best, it's just an online hobby group.

This also means that she is unaware of the things her fans do for her.

Occasionally, when she has free time from work, she sees advertisements placed for her by her fans, which surprises her greatly, and this time was no exception.

Sui Lingfang was still a little nervous and said, "Why don't we go to Fangfei venue first and come back to check on things after the event is over?"

Jinli didn't answer, but instead asked Chen Qin, "When does Fangfei want to arrive? How much time do we have left?"

Chen Qin's mind worked very quickly. "Fangfei asked us to arrive at 1:30. The event officially starts at 2:00 in the afternoon. It's only 10:00 now. If we shorten our lunch time and add the travel time, we'll only have about three hours of free time."

Jinli decisively said, "Xiao Cheng, let's find a place to stop and rest for a while."

Then she turned to Sui Lingfang and said with a smile, "Sister Fang, you're too nervous. Let's relax first. Maybe you won't be nervous anymore after you see the ads that my fans have put on me."

Sui Lingfang thought to herself: How could it be so magical?
However, this was Jinli's team, and since Jinli had already spoken, she couldn't really refute it.

There can only be one core decision-maker in a team.

Xiao Cheng is very familiar with the road conditions. She has been driving on this main road every day recently. She quickly found a place to turn and came to another road, and then turned several more times.

Soon they arrived opposite the LED screen, and Xiao Cheng smoothly parked the car.

This is an excellent viewing spot.

Looking at it from below the LED screen, you can't see the whole picture, and looking at it from the side always feels unsatisfying, but looking at it from the opposite side is just right.

This large LED screen not only displayed advertisements celebrating Jinli's birthday with fans, but also advertisements for other individual products, three of which were displayed in a row, with the content playing on a loop.

They were very lucky when they arrived; the previous advertisement had just finished playing, and the next one was an advertisement for Jinli.

The advertisement is presented with a simple animation. A book appears on a large screen, and the cover of the book is an image of a carp leaping over the dragon gate.

Opening the book, one finds a series of ink paintings.

A line of text slowly appeared, the beautiful handwriting blending perfectly into the image.

On the left side of the book appears a figure in ink wash style, which can be seen to be a middle-aged man with a distinctive large black mole below the corner of his mouth.

On the right are slowly emerging handwritten words—

[I got into a 211 university at 50, and my son says I'm his idol. Thank you, Teacher Jinli.]

The image paused for a few seconds, then automatically flipped to reveal a middle-aged woman in a traditional Chinese ink painting style.

She had short hair, wore a white shirt with glasses clipped to her pocket, and looked very gentle and refined.

[I only reached elementary school level as a child, but I've always loved reading. I never imagined I'd fulfill my dream of going to university. This livestream room is my study room, and this acceptance letter is my graduation certificate. Thank you, Teacher Jinli.]

A few seconds later, the page automatically turned, and this time it showed a bald man, who was a bit fat and short. His eyes were drawn particularly vividly, and he was smiling like a Maitreya Buddha.

[I hesitated at times, wondering if it was right to suddenly become so diligent in my studies at an age when I should be enjoying life. But after persevering, I realized that life should be about embracing different choices. You dismantled the barriers of age, allowing me to see a whole new world. Thank you, Teacher Jinli.]

……

The advertisement played for a full five or six minutes. Sui Lingfang and Chen Qin were silently counting how many people offered their blessings, but they stopped counting in the end.

There are too many, far too many.

At first, each person could be shown with an animation on one page. Later, it became two people per page, three people per page, four people per page, and then it transitioned to the form of sticky notes.

They placed one after another, and then another, piling them up one after another. Judging by the number of blessings, there were at least a hundred people's blessings.

Each message of blessing was different, allowing people to feel the sincerity of the fans.

Finally, after all the blessings were read, the book was closed, and a signature appeared at the end—

A gift from a group of blessed "silver-haired students".

Jinli didn't know how others felt after reading it, but she almost cried after reading it.

She is not a sentimental person.

When she is focused, she can switch emotions very quickly, but once she loses that focus, she can quickly detach herself from the character's emotions, while her own personality is rather indifferent.

In Sui Lingfang's words, it means "being indifferent to worldly affairs and transcending worldly concerns."

But this time, she was moved by these lovely and respectable silver-haired students.

If she weren't worried about wearing a full face of makeup, she would have readily shed tears and immersed herself in this moving experience.

Rather than calling it an advertisement, it's more accurate to describe it as a gift from senior students to Jinli.

They didn't care whether Jinli saw it or not; they just wanted to share their joy with everyone.

Jinli asked Sui Lingfang, her nose slightly red, "Can you find them all? I want to give them gifts, anything is fine, like autographs, old albums from Pink Girl, or other gifts."

Sui Lingfang was also quite moved.

She always knew that Jinli's persistence in learning through live streaming was a very meaningful thing.

Therefore, she was extremely angry when she saw the media smearing Jinli with ulterior motives.

However, despite being moved, after sniffling, Sui Lingfang regained her composure and said:

"Since they appeared in the form of ink paintings and did not reveal their names, they probably did not want to be found."

Jinli thought for a moment and said regretfully, "It's such a pity. I really liked the gift they gave me."

Suddenly, she had a brilliant idea: "Since I saw the advertisement here, it must mean that someone from their company is nearby. Why don't I write a thank-you note and have it displayed on the big screen to express my gratitude for their support?"

"Huh?" Sui Lingfang and Chen Qin were both taken aback.

"This……"

No celebrity has ever done this before!
For a long time, only fans have been making sacrifices for celebrities. In order to gain more loyal support from their fans, celebrities will listen to their fans and refrain from doing this or that. But no celebrity has ever done it in the same way, displaying their replies on an LED screen.

When celebrities see such touching support, they usually just take a picture, post it on their blog, and say thank you, and that's it.

Jinli seemed to have read their thoughts, and her eyes curved into a smile like a crescent moon.

"It's no fun to thank people the way we used to, so let's do something different this time. I think fans will be even happier to see my reply on the big screen."

Chen Qin hesitated and said, "Actually, thinking about it this way, it's not a bad idea. It's a new type of interaction, and it seems to be quite mutually beneficial." Sui Lingfang's expression was somewhat complicated. When it comes to being a celebrity who has to pay money every time, Jinli is probably the only one who does it.

What else can we do but spoil them?
She said helplessly, "Okay, we'll do it your way, but we need to find out first whether it's only this LED screen that will be used. If it's in several places, then we'll put your reply in all of them."

Jinli knew that Chenxi Entertainment hadn't managed these unofficial fan groups, so she said, "Should I start a campaign online to recruit them? Would it be difficult to find enough people?"

Sui Lingfang thought for a moment and shook her head: "No need. Although we don't have an official fan group, we have created some alternate accounts in larger private fan groups. We should be able to find out by asking with those alternate accounts."

Chen Qin added, "Actually, there's an even more convenient method."

She pointed to the large screen not far away, "If we want to send a reply, we need to contact the person in charge of this advertisement. We can find out the contact person for this advertisement from the person in charge."

"It would be much easier if we could find the contact person; we could find out from them whether they've placed ads elsewhere."

Jinli agreed, saying, "Let's use both methods simultaneously to avoid overlooking anything."

Xiao Cheng had somehow gone to a nearby coffee shop and bought a few cups of coffee.

The group accepted the coffee, rested for about an hour, and then left.

Jinli noticed the paparazzi, but instead of chasing them away, she turned around and smiled at them.

The paparazzi hiding in the shadows were taken aback.

The paparazzi who followed them were dressed in a very special way. In order not to attract attention, they covered their bodies and heads with a layer of grass, looking a bit like the special costume items obtained in the game Peace Elite, or wild men hidden in the grass.

"How could this be discovered? What kind of eyes does Jinli have? I don't think her manager or assistant noticed it either."

"It's intuition, that's the only explanation."

"So why is Jinli lingering here? Isn't she going to Fangfei's event today? Except for not changing out of her dress, she's wearing full makeup. She'll be recognized soon."

"Not necessarily. There aren't many people on this road on weekdays. Jinli is dressed so elegantly, yet no one has come to check on her."

"Perhaps they stopped specifically to look at the advertisement? If I'm not mistaken, those advertisements were messages of blessing from fans to her?"

"Ha, you actually stopped to admire the ads posted by your fans?"

The paparazzi looked puzzled; this kind of thing would be understandable for a minor celebrity.

But Jinli is already a well-known star with countless fans. How could she be moved by such a small thing, especially on such an important day?
What if they linger too long, encounter some unexpected event on the way, and fail to arrive at Fangfei's activity location on time, thus angering Fangfei?
One paparazzi suddenly remarked, "Not being afraid of offending brands, or even being late, is perhaps the confidence that only big stars have!"

Jinli and the others stayed for an hour, so long that the paparazzi had already taken all their footage and had nothing left to shoot before Jinli finally left.

In fact, the paparazzi were eager for Jinli to leave, because they had already prepared their press releases, just waiting for the celebrity to leave so they could publish them.

If they were a little more unscrupulous and immoral, they could post it now, which might attract a large crowd and block Jinli's path, causing chaos at the scene.

But if that really happens, they'll end up in jail!

In this regard, the relevant laws are already quite comprehensive, all designed to deal with various emergencies.

If it were other celebrities, they couldn't guarantee that such consequences would definitely occur.

However, if it happened to you, it would most likely cause traffic jams and road congestion.

As soon as Jinli left, the media released press releases.

#Jinli stops to look at the fans' handwritten letters!#
This tag immediately went viral and quickly rose to fifth place on the trending topics list.

What shocked netizens first was not that Jinli risked missing the Fangfei event by stopping midway just to read the handwritten letters from her fans.

Instead, they were first shocked by the photos taken by the paparazzi.

There are so many pictures, there are just too many to see. The paparazzi took hundreds of pictures and released them all at once.

What are the differences between these hundreds of pictures?
That is, every single fan's self-portrait and thank-you note is different.

Just how meticulous are these paparazzi?

Even though the animation later turned into a sticky note format, with each page being covered up quickly, the paparazzi still managed to capture the content of every single page.

They not only took pictures of every scene, but also uploaded a full 6-minute video.

Netizens who came after hearing the news: ...

To be honest, I just wanted to watch the show, and you gave me a 100-page PowerPoint presentation!
Netizens were speechless at the paparazzi's antics.

[What a meticulous paparazzi, hahaha!]
[Give a thumbs up first, this thumbs up is for the paparazzi, they're so dedicated!]
[After watching the video, I noticed Jinli was watching very intently. Also, did she notice you guys? Why did she turn her head and smile in your direction?]
[They really found out. Jinli has a pretty good temper; she just smiled at you and didn't chase you away.]
The topic veered off course for a moment, but soon, fans rushed over, noticed the handwritten thank-you notes, and were equally moved.

[My parents asked me yesterday if there was any way to write a thank-you note and have Jinli see it. I said probably not, because she doesn't even have private messaging enabled. Turns out they have a way—by advertising!]
[To be honest, I don't dislike these kinds of fans; in fact, I find them quite adorable~]
[Jinli is probably going to Fangfei's event today, but she still dared to stop! She loves her fans so much!]
It wasn't until they started advertising that people realized Jinli has a very wide fan base, ranging from the elderly to the young.

Soon after, another trending topic appeared: #TheValueOfJinliFans#.

This trending topic is more meaningful for discussion because netizens are discussing the value of "universal education" and "lifelong learning".

As people get older, do they become conservative, afraid to try new things, and fearful of them?
As people age, has societal development taken into account the needs of the elderly and made their lives more convenient?
As people grow old, how will the world change because of these elderly people?
As people get older, do they need to have a more positive mindset than younger people?
……

On the other side, the roads were clear today, and Jinli and the others set off again, arriving at Fangfei's show venue in half an hour.

Fangfei had already prepared a haute couture dress for her to wear tonight, as well as lunch. The meal was very lavish, and Jinli didn't need to lose weight at the moment, so she could eat a lot.

It was only because she had maintained her weight well recently that Sui Lingfang turned a blind eye.

Sui Lingfang glanced at Jinli. Come to think of it, Jinli had never really controlled her diet, yet she managed to maintain her weight.

During certain periods, such as when she is working hard, even if she eats excessively, her weight will steadily decrease.

Sui Lingfang sighed silently.

If you consume so much energy but don't gain weight, isn't that a sign of poor digestion and absorption?

Sui Lingfang felt that whenever she thought Jinli's health was getting better and better, just like a normal person, one or two facts would always come out and make her realize that Jinli's health was still very weak.

"Jinli".

Jinli had just changed her clothes when she heard a knock on the door and someone calling her name.

As soon as she opened the door, Dai Xueling was standing outside, scrutinizing her with her sharp eyes.

It had been a while since I'd seen Dai Xueling, and her style had become increasingly aloof and sharp.

Jinli looked at her, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Could this be the style that will be popular next year, the cold and sharp style?"
