Chapter 62 Jiang Xinlan becomes an internet sensation, Lin Wan gets into trouble.
He originally intended to use this incident to curry favor with Shen Yu and Jiang Xinlan.
Moreover, Jiang Xinlan's acting skills are indeed superb. Releasing this highlight scene will definitely attract a large number of fans and also generate buzz for the series in advance, which is a win-win situation.
The publicity team acted swiftly, and that afternoon, the official account of "The Wind Rises in Chang'an" released two videos.
One clip features the highlight of Jiang Xinlan's confrontation in court, while the other is behind-the-scenes footage of her filming, showing her staying up late to polish the script and repeatedly practicing wire work.
Even after the wire stunt incident, she remained calm and continued filming on time without uttering a single complaint.
When the video was first released, it was only watched by drama fans and a small number of followers, but it went viral very quickly.
[My God! This acting is absolutely amazing! The way the eyes convey emotion is so powerful! I got goosebumps!]
[This sister is so beautiful! Her red court dress is absolutely stunning! She's both beautiful and cool; her looks are definitely at the pinnacle of the Chinese entertainment industry!]
I'd heard people say she was just a pretty face who got the role because she paid her way in, but now it seems her acting skills are miles ahead of any professionally trained actor!
[The wire snapped and he almost had an accident, but he came back and continued filming with such dedication, without even a single complaint. That's incredible professionalism! I'm a fan now!]
The two videos quickly rose to the top of Douyin and Weibo's trending topics within just a few hours.
#Jiang Xinlan's acting skills#
#RedCourtRobesRisingInChang'an#
The two keywords dominated the top of the trending searches, garnering over 100 million views.
Jiang Xinlan's Weibo followers surged by 300,000 overnight, and the comment section was filled with praise and declarations of love.
When the crew wrapped up filming, Jiang Xinlan looked at her phone and saw the surge in followers and the screen full of praise, still somewhat incredulous.
Assistant Xiaomin was so excited that she held up her phone and shouted:
"Sister Xinlan! You're famous! You're really famous!"
Jiang Xinlan looked at her phone, shook her head with a smile, but couldn't help feeling a little happy inside.
After so many years of hard work and stumbling along the way, she has finally been seen by the audience.
Just then, a black Bentley came to a smooth stop in front of the film set. Shen Yu got out of the car, carrying a thermal lunchbox.
Upon seeing Jiang Xinlan, a gentle smile instantly appeared in his eyes, and he quickly walked over.
"Shen Yu!"
Jiang Xinlan's eyes lit up instantly when she saw him, and she greeted him with a smile.
Shen Yu reached out and pulled her into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her forehead, smiling as he said:
"Congratulations to our Jiangda star, you've become an overnight sensation."
He had already seen the trending topic online, and watching Jiang Xinlan shining under the spotlight in the video filled him with pride.
His woman should be in the spotlight, seen by everyone.
Jiang Xinlan leaned against him, blushing as she scolded him, but her heart was filled with peace.
She is where she is today, able to immerse herself in filming without worrying about those dirty things, all because he is behind her, shielding her from all the storms.

The filming schedule for "The Wind Rises in Chang'an" has accelerated with Jiang Xinlan's sudden rise to fame.
After filming the morning's scenes, Jiang Xinlan realized that Lin Wan hadn't come to the set all day.
She stopped the passing assistant director and casually asked:
"Director Zhang, did Lin Wan take the day off today? I haven't seen her all day."
The assistant director sighed, a hint of helplessness in his eyes, and said:
"Hey, don't even mention it. Her assistant called in the early hours of the morning, saying that Lin Wan suddenly had acute gastroenteritis and a persistent high fever, and was rushed to the hospital overnight. Her fever was almost 40 degrees Celsius, and she was delirious from the fever."
"She definitely can't come today. This girl is really unlucky; she hasn't had a single smooth day in the two months she's been on set."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xinlan's heart clenched instantly.
During the filming period, her relationship with Lin Wan grew better and better, and they became good friends.
The more familiar she became with Lin Wan, the more she felt sorry for her.
She's such a lovely girl, beautiful, talented, and with a great personality—she's perfect in every way. But there's one thing about her: she's just unlucky. She's really unlucky.
The entire crew privately speculated that Lin Wan was just unlucky, and even the director considered replacing her.
It was only after Jiang Xinlan said a few kind words that she managed to keep her role.
"Director Zhang, which hospital is she in? I finished filming my scenes this afternoon ahead of schedule and would like to go see her."
Jiang Xinlan quickly asked.
The assistant director told her the hospital address and room number, and couldn't help but sigh:
"Xinlan, you're such a nice person. You're the only one who still cares about her. Now everyone in the crew is afraid of getting bad luck from her, and they're all avoiding her like the plague."
Jiang Xinlan thought to herself, "That's different."
Lin Wan is her friend. As a friend, shouldn't she think about the other person?
Knowing she would be going to see Lin Wan after filming in the afternoon, Jiang Xinlan worked extra hard during the rest of the shoot, trying not to rest and filming continuously.
We finished work two hours earlier than scheduled.
As soon as she stepped out of the photography studio, she saw the black Bentley parked at the entrance. Shen Yu was leaning against the car waiting for her, carrying desserts from her favorite old-established dessert shop.
"You're finishing work so early today?"
Shen Yu greeted her with a smile, took the script from her hand, and leaned down to place a light kiss on her forehead.
"I just bought you taro balls and grass jelly, it's iced, and I specifically asked the shopkeeper to put less sugar in it."
Jiang Xinlan took the dessert, feeling sweet inside. She took his arm, but the smile on her face faded slightly, and her tone carried unconcealed worry.
"Shen Yu, I have something to tell you. Lin Wan didn't come to film today. She had acute gastroenteritis and a high fever in the early hours of the morning and was hospitalized. That girl is so pitiful; she hasn't had a smooth life in the past three years."
"When I was filming, either the show couldn't be broadcast, or I got injured and missed the role. Even after joining the crew, accidents kept happening. I always felt something was wrong. Even if I was just unlucky, I shouldn't have been this unlucky."
She looked up at Shen Yu, her eyes pleading:
"I asked for her hospital address and plan to visit her after filming. Could you come with me? You know medicine, so could you take a look at her and see what's wrong, why her high fever won't go down, and why her health is getting worse?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yu's fingertips paused slightly.
He recalled that when he first visited the film set, he noticed that Lin Wan, who was in the corner, was surrounded by a faint aura of yin energy, and her life fortune was severely depleted. It was clear that someone had used evil magic to tamper with her.
