I was worried about being late, so I arrived early, Su Wen explained, her preparations evident despite her lack of nerves.
Thats true. Take a look at the setup. As Zhou Yan finished speaking, she was called over by a staffer with a work badge. After a brief absence, she returned with a smile. The staff from the Morning Post just approached me. They want to snap a few photos of you in advance for the cover of the arts section in the newspaper two days from now.
The Morning Post was renowned nationwide, not to mention in the province. Its circulation easily ranked in the industrys top five. Such a prominent newspaper wouldnt take an interest in Su Wen unless she paid for ads or earned more fame and work.
Their presence today was thanks to Zhou Yans efforts; shed also promised them a small section in the paper.
The arts section cover? Su Wen was surprised. How did you manage to pull that off? Werent you saying its hard to get the Morning Posts attention?
Haha! It was tough initially, but not anymore. Once they spot someone with potential, they wont let go, Zhou Yan replied, meaningfully looking at Su Wen. In the media, youre like blood in shark-infested watersirresistible.
Some individuals were destined for greatness. Even a fool knew to cling to such people, for missing out would be the greatest folly. Zhou Yan was now eagerly antic.i.p.ating the papers sales in two days.
In Su Wens eyes, the synergy between her rising popularity and the newspapers circulation was bound to yield unexpected results. Their joint efforts in publicity and planning, with many of Su Wens suggestions impressing Zhou Yan, had bolstered her confidence in their success.
Su Wen couldnt help but quip, Is it all because of my face?
Its not just your looks, but your demeanour too, Zhou Yan affirmed earnestly. Sure, people have dubbed you a beautiful author, but theyve only measured you by ordinary standards. You, my dear, can rival a movie star. Youre not just good; youre up there with the most renowned Hong Kong actresses.
Every beauty had her allure, but Su Wens was undoubtedly the most captivating. Beautiful yet unpretentious, knowledgeable yet indifferentthe allure was innate. When such a stunning figure was also a best-selling author, her radiance was blinding.
I see, Su Wen mused. It was like a double enhancementeffect bonus.
Oh, and about these books Theyre not going to sell out, are they? Su Wen eyed the mountain of books, concerned about her hand cramping from all the autographs.
Zhou Yan grinned mysteriously. I dont think we have enough. Look outside, the crowds growing. Ill go instruct the security guards to maintain order.
Since Zhou Yan was occupied, Su Wen opted not to delay her further. They tacitly avoided discussing yesterdays incident.
For one, they were both about to get busy and didnt want distractions. Moreover, there was no need; everyone wasnt foolish. Letting bygones be bygones was best, especially with Song Zishan, who harboured revengeful intentions, nearby. Su Wen realized it was best to suppress the matter.
Su Xuewens judgment was correct.
Furthermore, she didnt want to ride on Su Xuewens coattails. She wasnt the original Su Wen and aimed to achieve everything through her efforts.
Time flew, and soon the signing event commenced. As the doors of the commercial building opened, eager readers flooded in. Still, the presence of dozens of security guards kept things orderly, preventing any chaos and controlling the few individuals who attempted to rush forward.
