Chapter 14
When Xia Wei looked over, she was slightly stunned when she saw him. Wasn’t this the handsome guy she saved that day?
Why did everyone call him Mr. Jian?
Jian Tan had already walked down the stairs. His expression was a little cold and he greeted everyone seriously, “Hello, everyone. I’m Jian Tan.”
An Nan rushed in front of Jian Tan, as if she wanted to shake hands, but hesitated. She held her fists in front of her chest as she looked at Jian Tan with starry eyes. “Mr. Jian! I’m your fan. I’ve seen all your movies! I didn’t expect you to participate too! I’m so happy!”
Not only was An Nan excited, but even Su Chu, who was beside her, held her hand excitedly. “Oh my god!! It’s actually Mr. Jian! I really made the right choice but joining this show!”
The fans in the comments section also seemed to have gone crazy. Countless netizens clicked into the live-stream after seeing the rising trending topic just to see the Best Actor’s handsome face.
Jian Tan’s status in the entertainment industry was quite high. After all, very few people could win the Best Actor Award five years in a row without any scandals.
Therefore, his number of fans was quite impressive, far exceeding that of some popular celebrities.
Xia Wei’s mind was racing. She remembered that this person was mentioned in the book too, but there wasn’t much written about him.
When Xin Xin obtained her first Best Actress Award, she had once thought of getting close to Jian Tan. After all, his status as the Best Actor could provide her with many resources.
Unfortunately, no matter how she tried to seduce Jian Tan, Jian Tan seemed to be completely uninterested in her and ignored her.
This was also the first time Xin Xin realized that it was actually possible for a man to have no interest in her.
In the original novel, Xin Xin had actually discovered that although the Host was much more beautiful than her, she seemed to have some strange sort of power of attraction. It was as if all men would fall in love with her as long as she waved her hand.
Thus, she reached the peak of the entertainment industry step by step.
Jian Tan walked past An Nan, who was frantically expressing his love for her. Then, he raised her hand and waved at Xia Wei, who was staring at him in a daze. He even revealed a warm smile. “We meet again.”
Xia Wei wasn’t the only one who was stunned. Everyone present was stunned.
[What’s going on? Mr. Jian actually knows Xia Wei. Have they worked together before?]
[No way? How can someone of Xia Wei’s status be worthy of working with Mr. Jian?]
[Mr. Jian said that they meet again, so they probably met not long ago!]
“Haha… that’s right.” Xia Wei smiled wryly.
If he was really a Best Actor Award winner, why didn’t he explain things to her when she saved him the last time he was filming?! He even made her think that she was doing a good deed!
Wait… Best Actor Award winner?!
Xia Wei suddenly recalled that in the original book, the Host had some interactions with this Best Actor Award winner.
In the early stages of her entry into the entertainment industry, after she acted in “I Want to Be With You”, she gained some fame. Unfortunately, after that, her fame died down.
Thus, her manager at that time asked her to ride on Jian Tan’s popularity.
That manager had used her social media app to repost Jian Tan’s posts countless times and would always post things like “He has a new drama again!” or “I have the same outfit!”
When Xia Wei wasn’t very famous, these posts were ignored. However, ever since she acted in her second drama, she started to be scolded by all the netizens. These past posts were dug out by netizens and they accused her of riding on other people’s coattails, especially Jian Tan’s fans.
However, what the netizens saw was only what was on the surface. Only Xia Wei knew that what the Host did back then wasn’t what she wanted. She was forced by her manager and her work cell phone was completely controlled by her manager.
When she was under that manager, the Host felt very depressed.
Fortunately, later on, another artiste that manager was in charge of was investigated for tax evasion. That manager was also discovered to have partaken in some illegal actions.
It was also for this reason that the Host’s manager was changed to Wang Ming.
After recalling these things, Xia Wei couldn’t help but sigh.
