The day Li Sheng Nan’s life was extinguished, Jiang Ling returned to her peak.
On this very night, she gained the attention and adoration that all artists in the industry dreamed of.
The name Jiang Ling, like a viral epidemic, had completely appeared in the eyes of all netizens.
Anyone with a mobile phone within reach could not possibly avoid the words 'Jiang Ling'.
Li Sheng Nan’s death was both a powerful tearjerker and the key to Jiang Ling’s return to the top tier of stardom.
Therefore, tonight, not only the audience was awake, but Jiang Ling and her agent, Sister Sa, were also awake.
The two sat on the sofa, each holding their phones, closely monitoring the traffic fluctuations.
"Oh my god, three trending topics in a row! Lingzi, you've made it... No, you've made a comeback! You've truly made a comeback..."
Sister Sa exclaimed with a shriek, almost jumping off the sofa.
After all, for a top artist, a scandal was essentially the end of their acting career.
Very few could re-establish themselves in the entertainment industry.
Even more so, to reclaim the throne of the "Queen of Traffic" within a year was almost an impossible feat.
But Jiang Ling?
Not only did she achieve it, but she also garnered even more terrifying traffic than before her scandal.
Jiang Ling put down her phone, picked up a Kyoho grape, and slowly ate it, smiling. "I'd anticipated this day, but the popularity is even more intense than I expected."
It was also thanks to Guan Su Yi's excellent script adaptation. By artistically altering Li Sheng Nan's death, she made the audience feel more sympathetic.
If the original character had been filmed directly, it wouldn't have garnered such massive popularity.
Sister Sa chuckled, "That's also because of your brilliant performance. Without your outstanding portrayal, the character of Li Sheng Nan wouldn't have been so captivating, making the audience and fans unable to distinguish between the person and the character. They automatically resonated with you, feeling a sense of fondness, which then turned into pity."
She paused and then asked, "Lingzi, your resurgence is a foregone conclusion. No matter how much Huahua Media tries to smear you, they can't suppress you anymore. What are your plans now? You lost so much money last year with all the online backlash. You need to make up for it this time."
When it came to making money, Sister Sa’s eyes lit up.
In the entertainment industry, who didn't like money?
Precisely because it was so easy for top-tier celebrities to earn money, everyone aspired to become a star, receiving endorsement deals non-stop.
Even if they couldn't become a top star, being an agent or a personal assistant to a top star was also very lucrative.
Jiang Ling said, "The more popular one becomes, the easier it is to get carried away. I've only just made a comeback. I'll put commercial endorsements on hold for now. Once I've acted in a couple more good roles and solidified my popularity, it will be time to consider them."
Sister Sa felt a bit disappointed but understood that Jiang Ling, having just made a comeback, shouldn't take on too many commercial endorsements.
"That's fine. With your current popularity, it's easy to get good roles. If you can play another one or two likable characters like Li Sheng Nan, your popularity will surely soar to new heights. By then, you can approach those big brands and secure even better resources."
"Mm!"
Jiang Ling pondered for a moment and then added, "More fame brings more trouble. Huahua Media won't let me make a comeback easily. Keep an eye on Wang Tian and his group, and make sure they don't stir up any more trouble."
Having spent over twenty years in this industry, spanning both her past and present lives, she knew precisely what kind of people Wang Tian and his ilk were.
If she wasn't careful, a sudden bite could make it impossible for her to rise again.
