Chapter 246: BEING POPULAR IS EASIER THAN RETAINING IT
There were many such individuals who did this, but what caught her attention was the strange username. It was only three initials [ GYZ ] .
Ning Mei casually just opened the account and found it to be empty. And the only follower he followed was her.
She did not think much about it. After all , there are many followers in her hundred thousand followers who followed her from their fake accounts. He or she might be one of them if s new account.

Two days later, Ning Mei was on the set, going through her script. Today’s scenes were rather interesting.
Today Andrea finally confronts Kevin regarding his feelings for her. She was having a very nagging feeling that they were growing apart. They were having issues regarding the smallest matter for quite a few months now.
And now with Xia in the picture, who is soft spoken, kind, pretty, modest, one who does not loose her temper instantly, Andrea started feeling insecure. Xia who is completely opposite to her. And this made Andrea feel uncomfortable regarding her own relationship with Kevin.
If Andrea and Kevin had something in common that would be there incapability to express emotions and their feelings in front of others, and when they did it would either be an outburst of tears or anger. Neither of them could keep calm.
They were both short tempered and hyper expressive. And somewhere this did not balance their relationship. Instead created more problems. This was the main reason for them to loose interest and love on each other.
What they needed was someone who would balance their flaws and soothe their insecurities. Someone who would not put more pressure on them but understand and take care of their hearts.
Which they did find but not in each other, but their future partners.
Coming back to the script, her confrontation with Kevin happens in front of their friend groups and Xia was also present there. As expected, the conversation did not go easy and they ended up in bad terms. Consumed with anger, Andrea blames Xia for her failed relationship, and even goes to hit her, but was stopped by her friends.
On one side, Xia was being consoled by Kevin, as he aske her forgiveness on behalf of what Andrea had said to her. And on the other side, Alex consoles Andrea, for her heart break. And here starts the two blossoming love stories.
Ning Mei was looking forward to the enacting these scenes. While she was going through her dialogues, the door was pushed open by Yu Lian who looked visibly happy.
Ning Mei looked at her and smiled, " What happen Lian? You look happy? "
Yu Lian took a place near her and she looked at Ning Mei with bright eyes and asked, " You haven’t checked your phone, did you? "
Ning Mei slightly narrowed her eyes and said, " No.. ? I was busy with my script. Why ? What’s wrong? "
Yu Lian chuckled and said, " Just check out! There is a surprise for you! "
Ning Mei curiously unlocked her phone as she said, " Really? "
The moment she opened her social sites did she understand, her account was ranked one of the fastest growing accounts in a few days.
Well! It had to be! She reached a hundred thousand followers in a mere few days.
Ning Mei laughed of happiness and said , " This is so good! Who knew I would be famous overnight that too before my debute. "
Ning Mei’s overnight fame’s credit should actually to Feng Ye and HotFeed’s popularity. But at the same time, the crew of LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP also did an amazing job with the PR.
The released videos and behind the scenes chips time and again. Infact, there aim was to popularise the cast. The other actors were also very much benefitted with it, but Ning Mei was the one who gained the most.
Yu Lian said, " Meimei, you won’t believe how many offers for you are coming to me right now! From beauty brands to jewellery to Clothing! Even there are quite a number of roles that have been sent for you.
Though, they are not all much bigger brands or the roles are not for the main lead, yet some of them are significant.
The main thing that is your reach! "
Ning Mei too nodded. It was really good that her reach has increased. Now the main and the most important thing is to carefully sort out the roles and endorsements. Now she had work, that did not mean that she had to take over all of them.
If they did not sort it and carefully choose the roles and endorsements properly, with proper planning, her over night popularity may just remain short term. Which she would never allow!
As, being popular is not much harder than retaining it.
She had already uploaded the sponsored posts for the Clothing and shoe brand. And right now, Ning Mei did not want to do any more social media endorsement, atleast until the release of Meilei’s and Koral’s sets and designs.
She wasn’t actually looking for smaller brands now, when she already had her hold on the big brands right now.

"And... Action! " The Director yelled.
Andrea stood in front of Kevin, her chest heaving heavily with the pain she felt right now. Her eyes were blood red and swollen.
The atmosphere was too tense, as Alex, Juli , Kai and Xia looked at the pair with worried eyes. Kevin had pressed his lips together and starred at the beautiful girl in front of him, who was evidently heartbroken. His eyes also held a lot of grief, as not only was she his girlfriend, but more than that, they were best friends since they were kids. They only became a couple a couple years back, but their friendship streched long before that.
And it ached his heart, so see her cry like this.
Andrea swallowed the painful lump in her throat, as she said in a broken voice, " Y- You really mean w- what you said? " A tear slipped out of her eyes.
