Chinese entertainment: Top stars started being pursued by young actresses

Chapter 226, page 225: New Year's Eve concerts are not the time for romance-obsessed people.
In addition to this award, Lin Shaobai also received the honorary titles of "Most Popular Person of the Year" and "Singer of the Year".

Zhou Ye and a group of new actors received the honor of "Potential TV Drama Actor of the Year".

Zhou Ye, Tian Xiwei, and Zhang Jingyi can now only be considered to have their own representative roles.

It's somewhat popular, but it's still a long way from becoming a huge star.

After the Star Awards, Zhou Ye flew to Beijing to shoot for the magazine Rayli Fashion & Beauty.

The staff at the fashion magazine all really liked her face; it had a very sophisticated feel to it.

Although netizens think she looks cold and unapproachable, a bit arrogant and annoying, people in the fashion industry actually like that kind of face!

I love her look, the way she looks at trash.

Oda also secured two new endorsements.

Cosmetics brand ambassador for Clarins.

Food category: Brand ambassador for Master Kong Tomato Egg Beef Noodles.

Zhang Jingyi, who recently joined Baichen Entertainment, also secured an endorsement deal as the spokesperson for the Peacebird women's clothing brand.

All three are developing in a better direction.

December 31st has arrived, the last day of 2019.

Around 7:30, Lin Shaobai and Zhou Ye sat in the lounge preparing.

Lin Shaobai performed a solo due to his status, while Zhou Ye performed with Liu Tao.

Performing alongside such a senior artist made my senior colleague very nervous.

Even though we had rehearsed twice, I still couldn't completely get rid of the nervousness in my heart.

Zhou Ye still keeps repeating the songs he sings.

Lin Shaobai sat at a distance, quietly watching her.

It's normal for Zhou Ye to be nervous since it's his first time participating in a New Year's Eve concert.

"I'm so nervous, so nervous, so nervous."

The senior student held her phone, her heart pounding with nervousness as the live stream drew closer.

This is the first time I've ever sung in front of so many people, especially on such a big stage...

Will people say I sing badly?!

It was only then that Zhou Ye realized how difficult it must have been for the three trainees in the company.

Back then, I was so breathless when I sang, let alone the fact that trainees also had to dance.

How do they manage to keep singing and dancing all the time?

The constant coming and going of people in the room made Zhou Ye feel even more numb.

"You're so nervous, it's not like you are a senior sister."

Seeing that his senior sister was too nervous, Lin Shaobai slowly walked over and calmly sat down next to her.

Zhou Ye's head was still down, but he could be clearly seen to be much calmer.

How strange.

Lin Shaobai clearly didn't do anything, so why did he calm down just because Lin Shaobai was around?
Could this be the legendary physiological attraction?!

No, no, no!

Zhou Ye shook his head violently again.

This is not the time to be love-struck!

"This is my first time performing at a New Year's Eve concert."

After a long pause, Zhou Ye spoke softly.

Anyone would be nervous, right?
"Um……"

Lin Shaobai gave a thoughtful "hmm".

However, Zhou Ye felt that this was a little bit perfunctory.

Could you add a few more words?
She turned her head slowly and mechanically like a robot, looking at Lin Shaobai, and narrowed her eyes slightly: "Teacher Lin."

"Ok?"

"You could have said a few more words."

"Oh, then, Senior Sister, don't worry!"

"How could I not be worried? This is a live broadcast, there's no chance for editing. If something happens, it'll go straight to the trending topics."

"Look at you, you don't even believe in yourself. You contradict everything I say, and no amount of comforting will help."

Zhou Ye thought Lin Shaobai made sense. She puffed out her chest slightly, wanting to say something, but she didn't know how to respond.

Two staff members were standing at a distance, witnessing the entire event.

"I think Zhou Ye and Lin Shaobai have a special relationship."

"Why do you say that?"

"I noticed that Zhou Ye wasn't very polite when he spoke to Lin Shaobai."

"They were good friends to begin with, so there's no need for friends to be so polite with each other."

"You're so naive! You actually think they're just good friends."

"What else could it be? I'm warning you to watch your mouth, I ship Lin Shaobai and Tian Xiwei."

"You really know how to bring up the most sensitive topics. Is Tian Xiwei here now? Let's just talk about it."

"Are you crazy?"

The protagonist of the conversation, Tian Xiwei, is backstage at Jiangsu TV's New Year's Eve gala.

Compared to her senior's nervousness, Xiaotian was clearly much more relaxed.

It might also be related to her cheerful, bold personality and her love of trying new things.

Xiaotian was very excited, as it was her first time celebrating the New Year.

This is a new experience in life, so why should we approach it with such trepidation?

Most of the top-tier celebrities have been recruited by Hunan TV and Zhejiang TV, so Jiang Su's side is much less popular.

Even though it was still some time before midnight, people in the distance had already started setting off fireworks.

"Oh hoo!"

Tian Xiwei placed her hand on her forehead, her eyes sparkling as she gazed into the distance.

"They're setting off fireworks so early? How exciting!"

"The live stream is about to start, aren't you nervous?"

The assistant quickly followed, carrying Xiaotian's bag.

"What's there to be nervous about?"

Tian Xi smiled brightly and cheerfully, revealing a small dimple on her face.

The assistant smiled indulgently: "This is clearly your first time participating in a New Year's Eve concert."

"It's my first time... but in my heart, the excitement and exhilaration have long surpassed that little bit of nervousness. For me, I just look forward to my show. I really enjoy the scene of the audience calling my name when I'm on stage."

Tian Xi twirled around, exuding even more confidence than before.

"As an actor, there are very few opportunities to stand on stage, sing and dance, and hear fans shouting your name. Since they are so rare, I should cherish them even more."

The assistant stood to the side and gave a head tilt.

Actually, this assistant was only recently hired by Bai Chen, so he had relatively few opportunities to interact with Xiao Tian.

During those rare encounters, I was deeply attracted by Xiaotian's personal charm.

Yes, although she looks sweet and cute, she's not the kind of girl who's cute at all in private.

This unexpected cuteness...

Why not do some marketing?

People still think of her as a cute and adorable goddess!
Compared to the others, Zhang Jingyi is the safest bet.

She has severe social anxiety.

Making her sing and dance at a concert with tens of thousands of people would be the death of her.

Maybe I can accept it in the future, but what about now?
Absolutely!

The live broadcast of the New Year's Eve concert started promptly at 7:30 PM.

Zhang Jingyi felt suffocated just looking at the people performing the opening dance.

Good heavens, are all idols this terrifying?
What if you sing or dance in front of so many people and then go off-key or forget the moves?

This is all being broadcast live...

Zhang Jingyi rubbed her face.

Sometimes you have to admire Lin Shaobai.

A man who conquered not only the music scene but also the film and television industry.
