At Yan City Airport, a large crowd of fans had gathered. As the plane touched down and the airport’s large screens began to scroll the flight arrival information, all the fans converged at the exit.
It wasn’t long before Xue Feifei emerged, dressed in a high-necked fluffy sweater and jeans, wearing a pair of Doc Martens. Her suitcase was adorned with her coat, and although her expression was somewhat weary, her makeup was still exquisite.
However, the overwhelming sea of fans outside paid her no attention when she appeared. It was only when a tall man wearing a cap and a mask, flanked by several bodyguards, appeared behind her that the fans began screaming and running towards him, “Huang Mi! Huang Mi!”
But Feifei was already accustomed to this. She had recently filmed two major productions, both co-starring with Huang Mi, and there had been some online discussion about their rumored affairs and romance. But for an artist, one either chooses to ride the wave of popularity, regardless of whether it’s fame or infamy, and simply establish their personal brand to attract fans–or opt for the actor’s path, honing their craft. One may never experience the treatment of top-tier celebrities, but it can be a more enduring path.
Clearly, Xue Feifei had chosen the latter.
As for Huang Mi, he had initially risen to fame as an idol and after gaining recognition, he earnestly practiced his acting. Fortunate to have both talent and a willingness to endure hardships, he even received guidance from renowned directors, and now he had become one of China’s representative figures among the middle generation of actors.
However, despite being low-key for a film shoot and later involved in a rumor that was cleared up, the undeniable fact that he had concealed a romantic relationship did lead to a significant loss of fans. Despite his acting skills and accolades, if he had been more popular, the company would not have abandoned his idol persona. After all, popularity and influence meant marketability, box office guarantees, and viewership–elements naturally preferred by TV networks, investors, and brands.
Following that incident, Huang Mi’s financial team intentionally cultivated his fan base. He was now independent, not tied to any talent agency, but he had hired a team specifically dedicated to managing fans, marketing, and various promotional activities.
