Reborn in the Entertainment Industry: This Top Star Has Real Achievements

However, being fellow Chinese, he certainly wouldn't publicly humiliate him, so he smiled and replied, "Hello, nice to meet you."

Vera Wang chimed in, "Peipei has only recently started developing her career overseas, but her basic skills are already quite good. We'll need your help, superstar, to take care of her in the future."

Upon hearing her godmother's words, Qin Supei, who was standing to the side, felt a glimmer of anticipation instantly ignite in her eyes.

Before setting foot in Europe and America, she could never have imagined that Li Xiang's influence had reached this level, and it would not be an exaggeration to call him the number one male star in the fashion industry today.

If he's willing to lend a hand, even if it's just by casually releasing some resources, it's probably only a matter of time before I catch up with Liu Wen.

She immediately put on a polite smile.

In her opinion, given that her godmother, the queen of wedding dresses, had spoken up, even considering only their relationship, Li Xiang would definitely show some respect.

But she was wrong. Li Xiang had been doing well in the industry for three years and was no longer susceptible to pressure or favors, let alone the presence of Huayi in the middle.

If he had even a shred of self-respect, he wouldn't have offered help at this time.

Otherwise, what will outsiders think? If someone slaps you on the left cheek and then eagerly offers their right cheek, it would truly become a joke.

"Vera, that's just flattering me. All this talk of superstars is just a joke," Li Xiang said with a faint smile.

"Not to mention that Huayi was at the height of its success, yet it had the ability to send people here to develop their careers."

"With such a top-tier company protecting us, why would we need me to take care of things? That would be overstepping my bounds."

"You know, those 'general managers' at Huayi are people who don't tolerate any nonsense. I'm just a small-time star, I wouldn't dare to interfere."

Having been in the business for decades, Vera Wang is a remarkable person. Her understanding of human relationships and the unspoken meanings behind her words are immediately apparent.

Logically speaking, she and Li Xiang have always had a good personal relationship, and since they are both of Asian descent, they should naturally be on the same side in the European and American fashion circles.

In the absence of conflict, there's generally no need to refuse such a favor so readily, even if it's just a verbal agreement first.

Moreover, she had clearly heard that Li Xiang was collaborating with Huayi Brothers on a period drama film, which had not yet been released, so the two should have been in the honeymoon period.

Why does this conversation sound like they've become enemies?

She glanced at her goddaughter beside her.

Peipei had previously told her that Li Xiang was very close to the two Wangs of Huayi, and that he had met with her husband several times and had a very harmonious conversation with him.

It was precisely because of this information that she was willing to swallow her pride and ask Li Xiang to take care of her, thinking that such a favor would be easily granted.

Who would have thought that such a situation would arise halfway through? If things go wrong, her friendship with Li Xiang might be affected.

The reason they initially took Qin Supei as their goddaughter was because they saw the rising momentum of China Arts and Entertainment Group and were beginning to make significant strides in the fashion sector.

The domestic consumer market is so huge that even an outsider like Anna can see it clearly. How could she, as a Chinese, not understand it?

The so-called godmother and goddaughter relationship is nothing more than a relationship born out of business cooperation.

Otherwise, why didn't she choose He Xiangu and Xi Mengyao from the trio as her goddaughters?

No matter how strong or large Huayi is, it can only operate within its own small domestic territory.

She's willing to give face so everyone can make money peacefully, but if she doesn't...

Huayi is not the only partner in China.

But Li Xiang is different. After only three years of wandering in Europe and America, he has gained a voice in the global fashion world.

He also has Anna, Carl, Grace, and other top figures in the industry protecting him.

He himself lived up to expectations, and through his own efforts, he occupied half of the top luxury brands.

Furthermore, her affair with Henry Cavill became known worldwide, which garnered her a massive number of die-hard fans.

If we really have to choose sides, the answer couldn't be clearer.

But Wang Weiwei also had her pride; she couldn't possibly fawn over Li Xiang just because he showed the slightest inclination.

Upon closer examination, it becomes clear that Li Xiang's target from beginning to end was only Huayi, and he didn't seem to harbor much hostility towards his goddaughter.

Having figured this out, she didn't force anyone to do anything, nor did she press for the reasons behind it; she simply smiled and changed the subject.

"I was overthinking it. With Huayi backing her up, Peipei really doesn't need anyone else to worry about her."

"Go to the front of the stage and prepare. Walk the runway well and be in your best form."

Qin Supei was taken aback, vaguely sensing that something was wrong, but dared not ask any further questions.

He could only obediently agree, turning away with a slight sense of disappointment, and the awkward atmosphere instantly dissipated.

Li Xiang could naturally hear the other party's concession and knew that this person had probably understood his attitude.

She then readily accepted the offer: "Vera, we won't keep you from continuing your preparations. Isha and I will go wait in the audience."

"Alright, you guys go ahead. We'll talk in detail after the show." Wang Weiwei smiled gently, as if nothing had happened.

Only after Li Xiang and the other person had walked far away did she quietly stare at their departing figures, her gaze fixed on them.

When they returned to the main venue with Isha, most of the guests had already arrived, the lights were gradually dimming, and it seemed that there were only moments left before the show started.

Anna's side of the seating area was already surrounded by a group of people.

Many celebrities took turns coming forward to take photos with her.

Anna simply sat there with her legs crossed, like a silent ornament, letting wave after wave of people take turns trying to get in front of the camera.

This scene also intrigued Li Xiang, but when his gaze swept across the queuing crowd, it suddenly settled on a Chinese face.

He had always thought that the earliest adopters of the "photo-sharing" era were the South Korean celebrities.

But to everyone's surprise, the person in the distance who was so shameful that it was unbearable to look at was actually one of their own compatriots.

At that moment, he really wanted to turn around and leave, but he wasn't some nobody, and he couldn't remain silent like them.

As soon as they came out from backstage, they were noticed by many people, and people kept coming up to greet them along the way.

Naturally, Anna also saw him.

Li Xiang really wanted to pretend he was blind.

Because this strangely shaped female celebrity, who came from the Super Girl competition and whose name is something like Shang, hasn't even gotten close to Anna yet.

Instead, they obediently stood in line, their faces showing an embarrassed yet eager anticipation.

This sight already made Li Xiang feel quite embarrassed.

Then, the actress surnamed Shang turned around and excitedly whispered something to another minor celebrity behind her.

Damn it, you're not even ranked among these people who are just trying to get photos taken, and you're actually quite happy about it?

He could only curse inwardly, wishing he could disappear into a crack in the ground right then and there.

"What are you waiting for? Aren't you going to sit here?" Anna, who couldn't stand it anymore, quickly spoke up when she saw Li Xiang approaching.
