Chapter 714: Chapter 714

Due to having her own business, she had also become busy lately, intermittently hitting the books on investment management and occasionally spouting phrases like "capital," "unicorn," and "emerging enterprises."

In the past, explaining investment reality shows to Mrs. He required He Jinxia to spend a fair amount of effort translating complex terms into layman’s language.

But now she didn’t need to do that anymore.

Soon after, Mrs. He understood why her daughter was so happy.

Watching He Jinxia’s beaming smile as she talked with ease, a hint of relief crossed Mrs. He’s eyes.

Jinxia, truly had grown up...

Wanting to be a boss is one thing, but being able to successfully become a boss is another; even if everyone was willing to help each other fulfill their goals, discussing the assorted details and clauses took nearly a week.

While He Jinxia led the "High School Musical" crew to join "Today’s Hot News," a well-established large variety show, Luo You finally formalized the clauses between them and the reality show "Your Life, My Guard."

The crew were newcomers to Huaxia, feeling somewhat alien in a strange land; the previous promotions were limited because He Jinxia was still filming, unable to help despite her willingness.

This time she was relatively free, so she played the hostess, taking care of them.

Participating in "Today’s Hot News" was last year’s matter, back when He Jinxia received a warm welcome from the two hosts, Zhang Zhihuan and Deng Xiiaoxiiao.

A year later, when the three met again, all were full of emotion.

Before the show began, backstage in the rest area, Deng Xiiaoxiiao expressed in awe, "Jinxia, you’ve been incredible this year! You set a record for an art film’s box office, breaking an eight-year stalemate, and the movies you took on were nominated for film festivals!

Your TV series has been a big hit too, and soon, we may not be able to invite you to the show anymore."

The unspoken reason one might not be able to invite her was the high status of the celebrity, who would no longer regard variety show appointments as important.

He Jinxia smiled and hugged her, "Sister Xiao Xiao, didn’t you say that ’Today’s Hot News’ would always have its doors open for me? I didn’t say I wouldn’t come, so why are you trying to close the door on me?

I’ll still have works to promote in the future, definitely needing to appear on ’Today’s Hot News’—just afraid you might not want me anymore."

Upon hearing this, Deng Xiiaoxiiao felt reassured and heartily said, "How is that possible? As long as you want to come, the door will always be open for you!"

After chatting with Deng Xiiaoxiiao, He Jinxia then talked with Teacher Zhang Zhihuan.

Compared to Sister Xiao Xiao’s generous spirit, Teacher Zhang Zhihuan was the epitome of elegance, a scholar through and through, with refined speech, making He Jinxia feel as if she were facing a knowledgeable elder.

It wasn’t long before she introduced the two hosts to the crew members.

Differences in appearance were not a problem, nor was communication a barrier; Director Wilson was older than the hosts, but sharp, skillfully managing to capture the atmosphere.

When it was time to start filming the show, Zhang Zhihuan warmly suggested, "After we finish filming tonight, let’s go have hotpot, I’ll take you to try the authentic Huadu Hotpot!"

The crew naturally nodded in agreement, and Director Wilson gave a big thumbs up, saying, "I’ve often heard of Huadu Hotpot even abroad, and today I’ll finally have the chance to try it!"

He Jinxia watched from the side, feeling inferior to Wilson’s ability to make himself at home.

"Today’s Hot News" focuses on interaction, fun, and play, and the flow of the program is just as usual.

Because the foreign crew was more relaxed, He Jinxia also loosened up a bit today, treating the recording of the program almost like playing a game, enjoying herself throughout.

On the show, dancing is unavoidable, but thankfully, since she accepted an invitation to be a special guest on "Strongest Female Trainee," she had been soaking in the company’s dance studio for intensive training these past few days.

For some stars with weak dance foundations, cramming at the last minute was not an option.

A solid foundation requires cumulative cultivation. If you’re lacking, then you are truly lacking; results hurriedly achieved in a few days still feel inadequate.

But for stars with a better dance foundation, it’s quite significant, and He Jinxia had such an advantage.

Before coming to record the program, she had rehearsed with the crew members for a few hours, quickly regaining the level she had during movie shoots.

After all, everyone had practiced dance, and very strenuously at that; things memorized in the mind might be temporarily forgotten, but they can be recalled through constant practice, and even improved upon.

Three hours of joyful recording time just passed by with laughter and jokes.

During this time, He Jinxia’s phone, locked away in the safe during the recording, kept flashing and vibrating non-stop; it flashed every few minutes, blinking seven or eight times, as if the person on the other end stopped calling only when there was obviously no answer.

As soon as the recording was over, Cheng Xiaohua started to open the safe to take out its contents, and saw that the phone was still flashing, signaling a frenzy of incoming calls.

Seeing they were Luo You’s calls, Sister Xiao Hua hurriedly took the phone to He Jinxia.

He Jinxia was backstage removing her makeup, talking with Deng Xiiaoxiiao while doing so, discussing the variety show "Original Inn."

Deng Xiiaoxiiao was a regular guest on "Original Inn," and rumors had it that she even invested in this reality show.

"Original Inn" had been broadcasting for five years, and Deng Xiiaoxiiao’s contribution was indispensable.

In the beginning, much of the show’s popularity relied on Deng Xiiaoxiiao’s support; later, as the content improved and they always managed to invite popular stars, the show’s heat gradually increased, making it an evergreen among reality shows.

As a hot star this year, He Jinxia was naturally someone Deng Xiiaoxiiao wanted to invite to join. It would be even better if she could stay for a few more episodes.

But He Jinxia’s mind was wholly set on investing in a new type of reality show, so she did not immediately accept Deng Xiiaoxiiao’s invitation, only saying she would give it serious consideration.

Deng Xiiaoxiiao had a straightforward and hearty personality, and didn’t force a commitment out of her like other women might; she simply patted He Jinxia on the shoulder and said,

"Alright, the summer slot has the highest traffic. If you decide to join, it’s best to come and shoot in July or August.

If your schedule can’t accommodate that, coming in other months is fine too. ’Original Inn’ films every quarter, and our doors are always open to you." Read full story at ⓝovelFire.net

He Jinxia nodded, feeling a warm current inside.

Even though she knew that Deng Xiiaoxiiao’s offer was partly because of her current popularity and was an attempt to forge a connection, knowing it was one thing and experiencing it was another.

Deng Xiiaoxiiao’s approach made her feel especially comfortable.
