Chapter 382 Her Rivals
Violeta's prowess was truly impressive.
The news spread like wildfire.
Half the entertainment industry knew about Wendy's arrival.
Everyone was curious about her activities in Quinston. Could it be a new collaboration with an actor?
Since her airport schedule leaked that day, there have been no further updates. The buzz quickly faded and was replaced by other news.
Recently, 'The Moon Belongs To You' was generating significant attention. Despite facing negative reviews in its early days, the positive impact of a successful show proved beneficial to its two leads.
Hattie gained over three million followers on social media because of the series, and her fan base continued to grow. They expected the numbers to surpass six or seven million by the series' conclusion.
Her fans spontaneously formed a support club, managing her online presence and promoting her news.
Hattie also received some decent endorsement deals.
Although the endorsements were not from luxury brands, they were still from upper- to mid-tier brands.
Jacques, the male lead, benefited even more.
His followers had already surpassed five million and were still climbing.
Jacques was handsome and the heartthrob of his film academy.
His acting in the series was commendable, though not extraordinary.
His professional training set him apart from other young actors of his generation. Furthermore, his added allure and character contributed to his popularity.
The studio capitalised on this by presenting Jacques as a sunny and innocent young man. This image resonated well with fans, and his merchandise, including magazine covers and other memorabilia, sold out rapidly.
Compared to Nolan's classic and refined style, Jacques's persona filled a niche in the industry.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
His emergence filled this void and ensured he had lots of opportunities in the future.
Success brought confidence.
Hattie was experiencing the perks of fame for the first time. There were many fans who followed her to every event.
Feeling elated, she declared, "With these numbers, I'm definitely winning the New Actor Award next year."
Carmen was sitting in a nearby
chair, browsing her phone. She
replied casually, "Hattie, don't get too
excited, We haven't surpassed the number of views of The Quiet Ode yet, and Violeta's followers have already surpassed ten million."
Hattie frowned deeply and asked, "Whose side are you on? Are you my manager or Violeta's?
The drama gained popularity due to its simultaneous release and status as a web series!
"The Moon Belongs To You airs one episode a day, and it's a TV drama. They're fundamentally different and incomparable."
Carmen said, "Times have changed.
The gap between web series and TV dramas is narrowing. Mainstream awards have already embraced web series overseas. The New Actor Award is still up for grabs."
Carmen's words dampened Hattie's mood.
Annoyed, Hattie snapped, "So you think Violeta has a bigger advantage over me?"
Carmen spoke honestly, "At the moment, Violeta's career growth is indeed the best among the new generation. Her SEVITL endorsement alone puts her miles ahead."
Not just miles ahead of Hattie.
Even the top stars of previous years didn't secure luxury endorsements as quickly as she did.
Violeta had landed a top-tier endorsement within six months of debuting. Her feat was unprecedented.
"But we don't need to compare ourselves with her. We have different paths and fields. Everyone wants to be first, but the second position often finds comfort."
This was Carmen's experienced perspective, sincerely shared.
However, Hattie clearly didn't take it in.
"Second? I don't want to be second. I want to be first!
"Is the SEVITL endorsement so
great? It's only for a year. There are a lot more luxury brands out
than SEVITL. I'll definitely se
a
top-tier endorsement, too.
A week later.
Reverie Studio announced auditions for actors. The schedule was tight, requiring actor and actress Auratian to arrive in Quinston for auditions by the end of the month.
During this quiet week,
Wendy, Danielle, and Violeta had in-depth discussions.
They made detailed adjustments to the script and character settings.
Initially, James offered them a private estate in Kligan for filming, but Violeta didn't take it seriously.
