My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 189

After a few hours of car ride, they finally reached the isolated Tonglin County.

After they exited the expressway, the local cars were already there to welcome their arrival.

Nan Chen got out of the car first, and shook hands with all the leaders of Tonglin County who were there to welcome them.

Ning Ran’s car continued to drive ahead, as their destination was not Tonglin County, but an isolated district that was located even further ahead.

The reporters who were waiting at Tonglin County also joined in the queue of the cars. The main entertainment media platforms for Flower City were also here, and they started various shoots to report their process.

Ning Ran suddenly felt nervous.

Just then, Cheng Xiangyun gave her a call and she asked Ning Ran to wait for her in the car for a moment.

Cheng Xiangyun also came along, but she was seated in the car with other staff members. She was able to then meet up with Ning Ran now.

A couple of minutes later, Cheng Xiangyun’s car arrived.

She switched over to Ning Ran’s car and she looked unusually excited.

“There are so many reporters! I heard that there’s more waiting over there! I have never once faced so many reporters before!” Cheng Xiangyun said excitedly.

“What’s there to get so excited about? What they do is to write false information and capture photos anyhow. The sight of reporters makes me traumatized now.” Ning Ran said.

“Not true, reporters and celebrities have a symbiotic relationship. If celebrities wish to have a high rate of attention and be influential, they require a certain degree of exposure. So what will they have to rely on? Who else could it be but the reporters? If there are no celebrities to report on in the entertainment industry, it would mean no news and hence no jobs for them. So this is a symbiotic relationship, and they are not your enemies.” Cheng Xiangyun’s point of view sounded rather logical, but it seemed like there were few reporters today that have professional ethics.

In order to get any news, they could do anything to achieve their goals. Some unscrupulous reporters even resort to breaking into the morgue of the late Queen who had just passed away in order to get shots of the dead body.

That was why Ning Ran was especially scared of this bunch of reporters as she felt that she did not have the abilities to deal with them.

“Given that there are so many reporters today, shouldn’t you be excited that it is going to be your very first time facing them?” Cheng Xiangyun asked Ning Ran.

“Do I still need to get any more exposure? I have already been attacked so badly on the Internet.” Ning Ran threw the question back to Cheng Xiangyun.

“That is different. That attention gained was not deliberate and it was negative. This time round, you’re going to gain positive viewership, as you will be working together with Beauty Zheng. You will be all over the headlines of the various entertainment media platforms. How significant is that!”

“Fine, that’s a very big deal.” Ning Ran still sounded very disinterested.

“Why do I feel like this face of yours is making me angry?” Cheng Xiangyun frowned.

“There’s a whole lot of people who get angry upon seeing this face of mine, you can get in the line and wait till it’s your turn.” Ning Ran joked.

“Let’s keep the jokes aside for now. On a serious note, I had just interacted with Zheng Lunlun’s team, we will have to coordinate with them for the flow of events today.” Cheng Xiangyun said.

“Sure, definitely.” Ning Ran said.

“That means that if the reporters ask anything later, we will try our best to answer them all to let Zheng Lunlun not speak as much as possible. He cannot speak as his throat isn’t well today.” Cheng Xiangyun said.

Ning Ran knew that it was not Zheng Lunlun’s throat that was not feeling well. It was his stuttering that made him unable to speak over five words, else he would get exposed.

“Understood.” Ning Ran nodded.

“Now look at this, these are the questions that the reporters would likely raise later. Look through the answers and memorize them by heart.” Cheng Xiangyun passed two sheets of paper to Ning Ran, which were filled with a lot of words.

“We can even get to know beforehand the sort of questions that the reporters are going to pose later?”

“Yes, the reporters here today are arranged by Nanshi Corporation. The questions that they will ask later are included within two pages. If they happen to ask anything that is out of the scope, remember to remain silent and not reply at all.”

“Not reply at all?”
