[Not really, faded actresses are like yellowed pearls. No matter how radiant they were, they are now just fleeting memories. Why hold onto them so much?]
[I looked up information on this Jiang Ling. I only know that at the peak of her career, she married into a wealthy family and then retired from the industry!]
[Heh, so she's a woman who married into wealth. Nowadays, when female stars become popular, they also want to marry into wealth to secure a long-term meal ticket. I think Jiang Ling is no different from them.]
[Exactly. Unlike my Fei Fei, who has won numerous awards and was nominated for the Golden Peony Award last year. The Golden Peony, one of the top three most prestigious awards in the country! Once she finishes filming "The Romance of the Jade Bow," and after her portrayal of Li Shengnan becomes a huge hit, she'll definitely be able to win a Golden Award.]
[Jiang Ling hasn't won a single award and has the nerve to compare herself to my Fei Fei. How shameless!]
Due to the prolonged economic recession, when capital once again dominated the entertainment industry, and considering how Jiang Ling's role in "The Prince Becomes a Frog" led to a wave of idol dramas where CEOs were reduced to real estate agents, insurance salesmen, delivery drivers, and even nightclub bouncers, they collectively decided to give her the cold shoulder and altered her information on Baidu.
As a result, the younger generation today, when they search for the name Jiang Ling, only know that she was in the entertainment industry many years ago, achieved fame, married into a wealthy family, and retired, with no further information.
Old fans were furious seeing the younger generation belittle Jiang Ling so much.
[Speechless, utterly speechless!]
[Who says Jiang Ling hasn't won awards? The number of people who rushed to present her with awards back then could stretch to the Pacific Ocean.]
[Is the Golden Peony Award very impressive? My goddess achieved a Grand Slam at the age of twenty-three. She wouldn't even glance at those insignificant, cheap awards Xu Fei Fei has won!]
[Alas, these children are just too young. They don't know what's good and what's bad. We were also poisoned by traffic stars back then, but at least we had Jiang Ling's works to cleanse our eyes. Unlike now, it's truly pathetic!]
...
As they were grumbling, the television host, holding a microphone, turned to the audience and smiled as he began his opening remarks.
"Diamonds are forever, classics are eternal. For the older generation, Miss Jiang Ling is that perpetually sparkling, brilliant diamond."
"After sixteen years of retirement, I'm sure many viewers here haven't forgotten the goddess who dominated the trending searches. Let's now join the host in revisiting classics and reminiscing about youth!"
"Our platform will broadcast Miss Jiang Ling's representative works from past years for a period of time, so that audiences can understand what the correct approach to traffic stars truly is!"
The host's speech ignited the passion of the old fans and viewers in front of the screen.
Well said, "Diamonds are forever, classics are eternal"!
Jiang Ling was indeed that bright pink diamond that illuminated the youth of countless people.
The old fans wondered which film the program would first broadcast to revisit her classics.
Could it be those cringeworthy bad films she made at Sparkle Media in the early years?
Deceiving them into watching by pretending to commemorate Jiang Ling and reminisce about youth.
Clearly, the old fans were overthinking.
The television staff, including the station director, were all staunch fans of Jiang Ling, so they naturally wouldn't tarnish the goddess's reputation.
The host smiled slightly and announced loudly, "I declare the 'Revisiting Classics, Reminiscing Youth' event has begun! Now, the first drama series to be aired is – 'The Romance of the Jade Bow'!"
