[I also saw marketing accounts releasing news, claiming that “Crossing the Demon Realm” would premiere on Great Xia TV. They even said that Si Fuqing, lacking funds for marketing, should not be expected too much from a star. Expecting too much only leads to disappointment.]

[Isn’t the answer obvious? If you were Great Xia TV, would you choose Tong Luoyun, the foremost among the top four actresses, guaranteed to attract viewers, or Si Fuqing, a newcomer with hardly any background in TV dramas?

Moreover, historical dramas are more likely to be broadcast on major networks. I admit that Tang Haiqiu’s dramas are reliable, but isn’t the director of “Great Zhao Dynasty,” Xu Ce, also a veteran? Have people forgotten his “JIANG Family General”?]

[In the end, “Crossing the Demon Realm” was certainly submitted for review but just didn’t pass. If the competitor had been anyone else, it surely would have aired. Unfortunately, against Tong Luoyun, even the collective of new generation stars added together pale in comparison.]

[It’s rare to see Si Fuqing’s fans being slapped in the face, giving a feeling of vindication.]

Si Fuqing emerged unexpectedly among the stars of this generation, many of whom started as child stars with a strong foundation, such as Bie Yunxi and Song Yanzhi.

No one expected for a Si Fuqing to emerge out of nowhere.

In the entertainment industry, peers were competitors. It was less intense between different genders as the resources were divided differently.

Most male stars were still watching from the sidelines, while several female stars’ teams had begun contacting marketing accounts to stir up controversies.

Facing Tong Luoyun, Si Fuqing won’t escape without some damage.

It was a prime opportunity for them to just watch the battle from the sidelines.

In Si Fuqing’s forum, her fans were furious.

[I’m so angry! The marketing accounts always misinterpret things. We never said it would definitely premiere on Great Xia TV, it was just speculation. These haters and keyboard warriors just spout nonsense!]

[Don’t panic, if the studio isn’t panicking, why should we?]

[I suspect the studio has been silent because they’re planning something big.]

But the fans were also uncertain.

Great Xia TV holds a dominant position among several TV stations, followed by Starlight TV.

But Starlight TV was not on the same level as Great Xia TV.

The Mousses understood that “Crossing the Demon Realm” competing with “Great Zhao Dynasty” at the same time would definitely impact viewership.

Si Fuqing indeed started as a celebrity based on traffic, with most fans being students. With the winter break being a rare free time, the fan decided to support the show daily.

At two in the afternoon, the final promotional event for “Crossing the Demon Realm” took place in the southeast corner of the city of Sijiu.

After the actors interacted, it was time for media interviews.

“In ‘Crossing the Demon Realm’, you play many scenes with the award-winning Teacher Mo, who portrays the Celestial Ruler. During these scenes, did you feel overwhelmed by the pressure to perform?” An entertainment reporter asked.

Navigating the entertainment industry requires more than talent; emotional intelligence was crucial.

Si Fuqing was very popular, and many were watching her.

Any slip-up in her words could become headline news.

Mo Yishan frowned at the media’s probing questions.

Was this really not meant as sarcasm to him?

Who was truly under pressure?

Si Fuqing responded calmly, “Teacher Mo taught me many acting techniques. Being able to adapt is a fundamental skill for an actor.”

Mo Yishan also smiled, “I look forward to working with Teacher Si in future films.”

The media tried to provoke with several more subtly hostile questions, but Si Fuqing deftly countered them all.

After the interview, Mo Yishan stepped down.

Backstage in the green room, he was puzzled, “What acting techniques have I taught you?”

Si Fuqing, serious, replied, “You taught me how to control my presence.”

Mo Yishan said, “…you might as well kill me.”

At the front, Tang Haiqiu was stopped again.

“Director Tang, do you regret using a newcomer for such a crucial role?” a relentless entertainment reporter pressed. “If ‘Crossing the Demon Realm’ can’t achieve the same success as ‘Sword Immortal’, can it still spark a new wave of xianxia dramas? If you had chosen Gu Zhinan, perhaps it would have aired on Great Xia TV. Do you have any regrets?”

Everyone in the industry knew Gu Zhinan had connections with the LI family, which was why he snatched the Golden Flower Award for Best Actress from Cheng Yiqiao.

This question caused an uproar.

While the media were keen on this issue, they only hinted at it subtly.

Clearly, the entertainment reporter asking this was planted by an opposing star’s team.

One question managed to drag Si Fuqing, Gu Zhinan, and Tong Luoyun all into controversy.
