Huayu: From "Good Fortune Across the Sky" to becoming a top star

After the short film finished playing, scattered applause rang out in the conference room.

The leader next to Jiang Xun patted his hand: "Very well done. I think other places can use this as a standard for quality when making promotional videos in the future."

"You flatter me; it's the result of everyone's hard work."

The meeting room was peaceful, but the comments section of the live stream was in an uproar.

After the host briefly recounted how much effort Jiang Xun had put into the short film, not only the haters, but even casual viewers and fans fell silent.

[Seriously? Jiang Xun actually wrote this kind of movie? He didn't even graduate from junior high school!]

I'm starting to doubt it; the official hype is way too much.

The short film is indeed good, but is it true that he wrote the script? That's questionable.

This praise is ridiculously excessive. Did the planners themselves laugh?

The comments section was praising how good it looked just a moment ago, but the next second it turned into criticism.

Some people started cursing directly:

[A cowherd could write this kind of narration? I don't believe it for a second.]

[Has the local tourism industry gone mad? They're showering him with all sorts of accolades.]

Would Jiang Xun dare to admit it himself? Isn't he afraid of being struck by lightning?

[Heh, it's just capital creating idols.]

The female host remained calm, having gained experience from her previous live broadcast.

During this shoot, Jiang Xun stood behind the monitor filming Xiao Tian, ​​while other colleagues also filmed Jiang Xun working, to be used as behind-the-scenes footage.

She explained with a smile, "Many netizens don't believe it, it's true that it's a bit unbelievable that Jiang Xun knows so much at his age. But our behind-the-scenes footage can prove it, so please check it out after the broadcast ends."

There was no reversal in the comments section, and the number of doubts continued to grow.

Even behind-the-scenes footage can be faked.

I don't believe it anyway.

[It's ridiculous that an illiterate person is packaged like this; all of us who study diligently are a laughing stock.]

[I feel sorry for this young lady; she was forced to say such things.]

She finally started to panic and secretly vowed never to be a host again.

He quickly gave a brief overview of the upcoming Xinlong Horse Racing Festival, then hurriedly shut down the live stream.

Then, just like in the last live stream, she gave Jiang Xun an apologetic look.

Jiang Xun smiled indifferently.

General Manager Zhang led the other leaders to dinner, but Jiang Xun did not follow.

He chose to go back to the hotel with Xiaotian to rest.

The leaders didn't insist, but offered Jiang Xun a few words of comfort and encouragement.

It's understandable that a young person who has just become popular would feel bad about facing so much criticism and abuse. There's nothing that can be done about it; they can only rely on their future performances to gradually prove themselves and win back the opinions of netizens.

On the way to the hotel, the roadside was fenced off with green sheet metal, and the sound of excavators working inside could be heard.

Xiao Tian was staring at the feedback from the live stream on her phone, completely numb.

The short film has a high number of views and many marketing accounts are sharing it, but the focus is all on "this high-quality short film was written by Jiang Xun, who also participated in the directing work".

The comments section was filled with angry remarks.

"It's terrifying how capital can so readily support something."

"The government is implying that everyone should stop studying and go to South Korea for plastic surgery to become internet celebrities."

There must be a mastermind behind Jiang Xun.

"The entire Xinlong Tourism Investment Group has lost their minds"...

As Xiaotian flipped through the pages one by one, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

Xiao Lu sent me a WeChat message.

"Xiaotian, Xiaotian, are you there?"

"Yes, I'm here."

"I watched the live stream just now. What the official team said was outrageous! Are they trying to ruin Jiang Xun by praising him too much? They're definitely not a professional management company."

"It's just stating the facts. How could I not know when I was there? Jiang Xun is really amazing. He's a reincarnation of a living Buddha, so everything makes sense."

"??? Are you possessed?"

"Watch where you're going!" Just as Xiaotian was about to take a step, Jiang Xun reached out and pulled her body towards him, making her fall onto him.

She then snapped out of her daze from her phone and realized there was a large puddle ahead of her; she had almost stepped into it.

She put her phone in her pocket and remained in that position, looking up at Jiang Xun. The atmosphere around them was somewhat romantic, but the loud construction noise ruined the mood.

Promise me you won't look at any news about yourself online lately.

Jiang Xun hadn't intended to watch, but her suggestion piqued his interest. He took out his phone, and just as the screen lit up, Xiao Tian pressed it off again.

She looked distressed, her eyes sincere, and shook her head: "They're all negative comments. I'll go back and post on Weibo to explain for you; netizens will understand."

"Forget it, with your size, you'll probably just get criticized by netizens too."

Xiao Tian curled his lip: "They're already cursing."

At first, she was a little bothered, but then she found it funny and thought it was good to be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with Jiang Xun and take the blame, just to share the fire for him.

"What did they say to you?"

Xiao Tian rubbed his nose: "Big-eyed girl. You can get scolded even if you have big eyes."

"They're jealous of her big, beautiful eyes."

Xiao Tian chuckled; she was quite pleased with Jiang Xun's praise.

Do you think so?

Jiang Xun thought for a moment, then said seriously, "Big eyes are beautiful, small eyes are beautiful, bangs are beautiful, no bangs are beautiful..."

Xiao Tian stared at him, mouth agape, in disbelief. A true friend is hard to find.

This child understands me!

Back at the hotel, Jiang Xun took a shower and lay on the bed scrolling through his phone.

Just then, Oda pushed open the door and walked in, his hands behind his back, his steps casual and relaxed.

Jiang Xun quickly pulled the blanket up higher, because it was more comfortable to sleep naked under an electric blanket.

"You enter someone else's room without knocking?"

Xiao Tian blushed slightly, not expecting Jiang Xun to get into bed so quickly.

She pretended to be nonchalant and said, "You didn't close the door yourself. I was just about to knock when I pushed it open."

"I forgot. What is it?"

Xiao Tian glanced at Jiang Xun, then quickly looked away, casually asking, "Going to bed so early?"

"What else can we do? There are only two of us, and we can't even get enough people to play cards. I can't exactly ask you to sleep with me, can I?"

Oda was taken aback, gave an awkward laugh, walked to the window, looked at the dark night sky, and said, "Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown." Then he turned his head, "You know what I mean, right?"

"I'm not illiterate, do you think I understand?"

"Are you on fire? Why are you talking so rudely!" Xiao Tian pouted, walked over and sat down beside Jiang Xun's bed. "I'm just worried you can't handle the online abuse, aren't I?"

Xiaotian had obviously just finished showering; the strong smell of shampoo hadn't dissipated. The girl wasn't wearing any expensive perfume, only a very natural scent similar to shower gel or laundry detergent, or perhaps it was just her natural body odor that had developed over time.

"It's not that bad. I have a strong heart." Jiang Xun patted the edge of the bed. "How about we sleep together tonight? Try to comfort me?"

Xiaotian coughed and said, "That's not appropriate. Goodnight." Then she stood up and walked towards the door.

"Good night," Jiang Xun replied, "close the door for me."

I glanced at my phone one last time. The hashtag #JiangXunGenius# was trending, but I don't really think Jiang Xun is a genius.

They're all shopping!

Since things have come to this, let's go to sleep!
