Chapter 480. You Are No Longer The Same Tangning
Why did people react in this way? It was because plenty of people had once told Tangning that she wasn't suited for the industry. Her methods unintentionally broke too many of the rules.
Although her words in the US received acknowledgment from many of her peers, there were still some people that happily accepted the insults and dreamed of becoming famous in Hollywood.
In reality, Tangning's intention was to elevate the status of Chinese actors in the Western market, however, there were some people that willingly accepted insults when put in the same position.
Tangning made them feel ashamed and angry because her dignified approach made them feel cheap.
Some were even afraid that fans would start making comparisons, so they decided to use the airport incident as a stepping stone to get discussions going...
No actor in their right mind wouldn't want to pursue a career in Hollywood and no actor didn't want to be famous worldwide. If a big American Director came knocking on their door, they didn't believe that Hai Rui would let Tangning miss out on the opportunity...
So, claiming that Tangning was creating hype was reasonable.
At this time, before Tangning left the US, an American Director did indeed contact Mo Ting through a mutual friend.
The director had previously contacted Hai Rui about a female Asian role. With the commotion that Tangning caused, any intelligent American would start changing their view on Asian actors.
