Wen Nian looked at Xu Chang, who was smiling wretchedly, and said angrily, “1 don’t need the public to know what 1 look like. You are doing this to promote the movie.”

Xu Chang, undeterred by being caught out, acknowledged that Wen Nian’s determination to pursue a career in the entertainment industry remained steadfast. He stated, “Wen Nian, the truth is, you possess the qualities that are well-suited for this industry. Your appearance and your ability to adapt in your acting skills make you a natural fit.”

Wen Nian, lacking confidence in her acting abilities, attributed it to her lack of professional training and her previous experience in which her acting skills were never recognized by the audience in the entertainment industry. Whether it was the minor roles she portrayed or the occasional appearances, she was often met with criticism in the comments.

However, the director had said that the last two scenes had improved, but that was all.

Since joining the current production team, Wen Nian had received more praise for her acting skills. However, she humbly attributed this success to Xu Chang’s guidance and support. Despite her ability to draw upon her previous life’s experiences to empathize with characters, Wen Nian acknowledged that there was still much room for improvement in order to deliver a compelling performance in a high-quality film.

In her spare time, Wen Nian humbly sought guidance from other actors. Even if the other person was new to the industry, she would take the initiative to engage in conversations and listen to their perspectives, allowing her to gain valuable insights and apply the theoretical knowledge those people had learned in their acting classes.

This was why many senior actors saw great potential in Wen Nian. Xu Chang was not lying when he said that Wen Nian had great potential. Senior actors who like giving advice do prefer such diligent and talented actors.

However, Wen Nian credited Xu Chang and the actors who had taught her well for her ability to portray this role. A competent director plays a crucial role in training actors. Besides her passion for the industry, Wen Nian was also motivated to work on this film due to Xu Chang’s exceptional directing skills. She hoped that by getting to know him, she could secure further opportunities to collaborate with him in the future.

But then, Wen Nian thought of her experience in the entertainment industry in her previous life. In the end, she shook her head and said, “I still want to live like a normal person.”

Xu Chang regarded it as a pity, considering that finding such a talented individual was a rare occurrence.

However, if he were to give up under such circumstances, he wouldn’t truly be Xu Chang!

Considering that Wen Nian still had a year and a half before her college entrance examination, Xu Chang devised a plan to deeply influence her and “persuade” her to join this industry.

The online debate was still ongoing.

[Starting this semester, Wen Nian has been diligently studying every day after classes. I truly admire her ability to persevere despite falling behind for over two years. Although her rank in the final exam this time didn’t even reach the middle level of the grade, she has made significant progress. While submitting her homework to the teacher, I overheard the teacher mentioning that Wen Nian has already covered the first-year high school curriculum.]

[Completing two semesters’ worth of material in just one semester! I love a hardworking queen! ]

[I like people who are down-to-earth. 1 have already started following Wen Nian’s social media account. If she manages to succeed in her comeback journey, 1 will undoubtedly become her biggest fan!]

[I don’t think you have to succeed to be an idol. The process and journey are often more valuable than the final outcome. As long as Wen Nian maintains her positive learning attitude, even if she doesn’t reach the pinnacle of her academic achievements, her spirit and dedication are truly commendable!]

[I have a different perspective. What 1 truly admire about Wen Nian is her calmness and composure when facing the camera. She possesses a remarkable boldness that remains unchanged, even if Mount Tai were to collapse before her.]

[Hahaha, I’m different from you guys! I love her looks.She looks sexy and pure. She’s my type!]

[I misunderstood her previously and said a lot of things to attack her. I’m repenting! I announce that I owe her a movie ticket!]

[I’ll watch it too when it’s released! The movie Wen Nian filmed is really worth watching. Just as she said, this theme is very meaningful.]

The movie is meaningful. I just searched for the movie online, and it seems that promotional photos have been released. Although there were only nine photos, the image of the bullied victim falling from the building has left a profound impression on me.

[I am also paying attention to this movie because of Wen Nian. Actually, I’m also a victim of school bullying and have stood on the roof countless times. Fortunately, I met a very good classmate. Otherwise, I might have ended up just like the girl in the photo that the previous commenter mentioned.]

[My heart aches for the little brother above. Those bullies in school are the type of people that beat you up just because they don’t like the way you look when you pass by!]

[Replying to the previous commenter: That is what’s happening at my school. However, a newly appointed dean just reorganized the school structure and things are better now!]

This was the era of information technology. One could be destroyed within three days and one could be lifted high up within three days..
