Siheyuan: tomb robbing? I am serious about hunting.

Su Wan's words hit the nail on the head. The assistant could only glare at Su Wan, then turned and walked away quickly. Su Wan ignored her and walked into the dressing room. Her personal vanity was already prepared, filled with top-quality makeup products and the intangible cultural heritage jewelry she'd mentioned earlier, neatly arranged on a velvet tray. The makeup artist, upon seeing her enter, greeted her with a smile: "Sister Su Wan, you're here! We've been waiting for you for a long time. You look so great today!" "Thank you," Su Wan said, smiling as she sat down. "Thank you for your help." The makeup process went smoothly. Su Wan's skin was in great condition, her features delicate, and the makeup artist, with minimal touch-ups, created a clear, sophisticated look. She donned the first couture gown provided by the "L" brand—a black velvet mermaid gown with a hem embroidered with gold vines and a neckline studded with tiny diamonds. She instantly radiated her aura. The shoot officially began. Su Wan stood in front of the backdrop. As soon as the photographer pressed the shutter, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Perfect! Su Wan, you're such a great posing artist! A sharper gaze, yes, that's it!" Su Wan mastered the camera, capturing the photographer's precise requirements, whether from an elegant side profile or a commanding frontal shot. This was especially true when shooting the traditional Chinese style pages. She donned intangible cultural heritage jadeite jewelry, a modified version of Hanfu, and held a round fan. Her eyes held a blend of classical gentleness and modern sharpness, embodying the essence of traditional Chinese beauty to its fullest. The editor-in-chief stood in front of the monitor, watching Su Wan on the screen. He nodded repeatedly and said to his assistant, "I knew Su Wan was the right choice! Her expressiveness is incredible, far superior to Lin Weiwei's. The last time Lin Weiwei came for a test shoot, she just kept striking the same few poses, her eyes blank, and she lacked any spirit." The assistant quickly chimed in, "Yes, editor-in-chief, Su Wan is not only expressive but also incredibly dedicated. Just now, during a break in the shoot, she took the initiative to discuss details with the stylist, saying the belt on this Hanfu outfit could be adjusted to highlight the waistline. She's so professional." The shoot lasted until 6 p.m. before finally wrapping up. Su Wan removed her makeup, changed into her own clothes, and as she emerged from the studio, she was surrounded by a swarm of reporters. These reporters, clearly having received advance notice, were snapping away with their cameras and practically raising their microphones to her lips. "Teacher Su Wan, I heard you snatched the cover of Fashion Magazine from Lin Weiwei this time. Is that true?" "Lin Weiwei's team says you're leveraging your capital to drive down prices and slashing endorsement fees to secure resources. What's your take on that?" "You and Lin Weiwei debuted at the same time and are constantly compared. Does this cover snatching mean your conflict has become public?" The reporters' questions were increasingly pointed, each one trying to elicit a revealing response from her. Linda quickly stepped forward, attempting to block Su Wan, but was stopped by Su Wan. Su Wan stopped and faced the camera with a decent smile on her face, her eyes calm but firm: "First of all, the cover of the October issue of "Fashion Chronicle" is the result of the joint efforts of my team and me. There is no such thing as "grabbing". I have made a lot of preparations for this cover, including adding large Chinese-style inside pages and contacting high-end brands to provide exclusive clothing. These are obvious to all. Secondly, Lin Weiwei and I are artists of the same period. In the entertainment industry, healthy competition is normal, but I never use crooked means, nor will I rely on lowering prices to obtain resources - my value does not need to be proven by low prices. Finally, I hope that everyone can pay more attention to my work and future work, rather than these meaningless gossips. Thank you everyone." Her answer was flawless. She not only clarified the rumors, but also hinted that Lin Weiwei's team was hyping it up, and demonstrated her professional attitude. The reporters wanted to ask more questions, but Linda stepped forward quickly and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, Su Wan has a follow-up schedule. The interview ends here. Thank you for your attention!" After that, Linda protected Su Wan, walked out of the circle of reporters quickly, and got into the nanny car parked at the door. As soon as she got in the car, Su Wan leaned back in the seat and rubbed her temples. She was a little tired after filming for more than ten hours in a row and being surrounded by reporters. Linda handed her a bottle of warm water and said: "Wanwan, your answer just now was so good! You didn't leave any room for criticism, and you also criticized Lin Weiwei's team. Those reporters must have nothing to say." Su Wan took the water, took a sip, and asked: "What's going on online now? Is Lin Weiwei's team doing anything?" Linda took out her tablet, clicked on Weibo, and her face instantly became ugly: "It really happened! You see, the hot searches have already shown topics like 'Su Wan grabs Lin Weiwei's cover' and 'Su Wan's capital suppresses the price'. They are all water armies bought by Lin Weiwei's team, leading the rhythm in the comment area to blacken them. You. There were also marketing accounts publishing press releases, claiming you were 'relying on backing from investors to suppress artists of the same generation,' and the accompanying images were all comparison pictures of you and Lin Weiwei in previous frames, deliberately dragging you down. "Su Wan leaned over to take a look, and the tablet screen was filled with malicious comments directed at her: "Su Wan is so disgusting! She's snatching resources and pretending to be innocent!" "Lin Weiwei is so miserable, not only did her movie fail, but even her cover was snatched away!" "Su Wan must have backing from investors, otherwise how could she have snatched the spotlight from Lin Weiwei?" Her fans tried to refute the allegations, but with so many online influencers, the comments section was already swaying. "Wan Wan, how about we hire online influencers to fight back? And issue another press release to clarify?" Linda asked anxiously. Su Wan shook her head, leaned back in her chair, and closed her eyes: "No need. The water army will only make things worse and give people excuses to criticize us, making others think we are guilty. You contact the studio now and release the behind-the-scenes footage of today's shooting - especially the clips of me discussing details with the stylist and repeatedly adjusting my poses when shooting the traditional Chinese style blockbuster, and then post a Weibo thanking "Fashion Chronicle" and the 'L' brand, with a few photos of the shooting site. Don't worry about anything else." Linda was a little puzzled: "Will this work? What if the water army is still trying to lead the rhythm?" "It is useful." Su Wan opened his eyes, his eyes firm, "In the entertainment industry, silence is sometimes more powerful than quarreling. As long as we produce real evidence to prove our hard work and dedication, the rumors will naturally fall apart. Fans and passers-by have sharp eyes. They can tell who is hyping and who is working hard." Linda nodded: "Okay, I'll arrange it now." Sure enough, an hour later, Su Wan's studio released the behind-the-scenes footage. In the behind-the-scenes footage, Su Wan, wearing Hanfu, repeatedly adjusted the position of her belt in front of a mirror and discussed with her stylist the "angle of wearing intangible cultural heritage jewelry." While filming a haute couture gown, she repeatedly moved barefoot on the cold floor to achieve the best effect. She even twisted her ankle, but simply rubbed it and continued filming. The footage immediately sparked heated discussion online.
