Chapter 1253: Bullying the Princess? Dream on!

The makeup artist frowned. “Miss Xia, I’ve been working at the television station for twenty years.”
That meant that she was a senior makeup artist. Xia Wanyuan had no right to point fingers at her.
If it were anyone else, they might have been frightened by the makeup artist’s aura, but Xia Wanyuan did not fall for it.
She had read so much television station information before recording because she wanted to understand more small details that she had never understood.
In her previous life, every time they faced diplomatic relations between the two countries, everyone would always be very polite.
If it were an ordinary person, both diplomatic parties would be polite and reasonable.
However, only both sides knew if the other party had done anything.
For example, the other party believed in Buddhism. There were Daoist statues on the table here. For example, the other party hated pigs, but they had to use pork for lunch here.
From the information Xia Wanyuan had seen during this period of time, England’s television station actually looked down on China very much. This television station had once invited Chinese actors.
The scene at that time was that the Chinese person’s skin was relatively dark to begin with. In addition, with the lights in the studio, this person was completely khaki.
After the show was broadcasted, many viewers’ impression of China increased.
Hence, seeing that the makeup artist had deliberately turned her skin black and yellow, Xia Wanyuan was careful.
“This standard in twenty years??” Xia Wanyuan stood from the perspective of color. “The clothes on me are apricot-white. The foundation color you’re using matches the color of my clothes by 0 percent. Don’t television station makeup artists need to study color-related knowledge?”
“You…” The makeup artist usually did not pay attention to the entertainment industry at all, so she naturally did not know that Xia Wanyuan was an internationally famous painting master. She wanted to refute, but she realized that she could not refute Xia Wanyuan’s point at all.
Every time this happened, Xia Wanyuan wanted to sigh that it was good to have money. She took the makeup cotton and began to remove her makeup. Then, she glanced at Chen Yun. “Find a new makeup artist within five minutes. There’s no limit to the price.”
“Okay.” Chen Yun immediately walked out to contact the new makeup artist.
In the house, seeing Xia Wanyuan remove her makeup, the makeup artist was furious. “Miss Xia, you’re too picky. Don’t you Chinese know how to be grateful to be able to attend our television station’s program?”
“…” Seeing that she had already used the words ‘grateful’, Xia Wanyuan found it a little funny. She did not want to quarrel with this person and ignored her. She began to look at the script in her hand.
The makeup artist originally wanted to argue with Xia Wanyuan, but seeing that Xia Wanyuan was ignoring her, she found herself uninterested and left angrily.
Money was the strongest. Three minutes later, a new stylist arrived.
Because he wanted to earn money from Xia Wanyuan, this person displayed his 100% ability and increased Xia Wanyuan’s beauty.
“You look good.” Looking at Xia Wanyuan’s appearance after putting on makeup, Chen Yun could not help but praise her, even though he had been by her side for so long.
Not long after Xia Wanyuan finished putting on her makeup, a staff member came to inform her to go to the recording studio.
When they arrived at the recording studio, Chen Yun exclaimed in confusion, “Aren’t we interviewing alone??”
At this moment, on the stage, the host was already in position. Opposite her sat two foreigners. Chen Yun could not name them, but he knew that these two were the protagonists of a recent movie.
When the television station sent the program recording invitation back then, they had actually guaranteed that it would be a separate interview this time.
However, in the current situation, Chen Yun felt that they might have been played by England’s television station.
However, now that the show was about to start, he could not leave halfway. Chen Yun looked at Xia Wanyuan worriedly. “Wanyuan.”
“It’s nothing.” Xia Wanyuan shook her head slightly. When she was checking the information of England’s television station, she already knew the attributes of this television station better, so she knew very well.
The show this time would definitely encounter some obstruction. She was not very surprised to see this situation.
Seeing Xia Wanyuan walk over, the director gestured for her to go on stage.
At this moment, on stage, the host was chatting with two guests. These two guests were the male lead of a popular sci-fi movie and the idol of the host.
She looked at the two of them with shining eyes and did not notice that Xia Wanyuan had already gone on stage.
At that moment, the two chairs in the center of the stage had already been taken away, leaving only a chair at the corner. No one cared about Xia Wanyuan, so she found a place to sit.
“Hello.” The other two male actors on stage noticed Xia Wanyuan’s face and surprise flashed across their eyes. They took the initiative to greet her.
Xia Wanyuan nodded slightly.
Only then did the host notice Xia Wanyuan. Seeing that the actors who had been talking to her were all surrounding Xia Wanyuan, a hint of displeasure flashed across the host’s eyes.
However, it was working hours, so she still maintained her politeness and nodded at Xia Wanyuan. “Welcome.”
“Okay, everyone, get ready. Our cameraman is already in position.” As soon as the director finished speaking, the recording venue entered a state of preparation.
The host tidied her clothes and looked at the camera with a smile. “Welcome to today’s program. Let me introduce everyone to today’s guests.
These two are the main leads of the popular movie “Revenge”, David and Mike. This is Xia Wanyuan from China. “Eldest Princess” has been very popular in England recently. I believe everyone is very familiar with it.”
After introducing the guests, they began to interact with them.
Before the show began, the television station had sent Xia Wanyuan a recording script.
However, nearly twenty minutes after the recording of the show, there were not many scenes that originally belonged to Xia Wanyuan.
Be it interviewing or promoting her movie, the host casually brought Xia Wanyuan along.
The highlight of this show before it was broadcasted was Xia Wanyuan. Most of the people who came to watch the show now were here because of Xia Wanyuan.
The show had been broadcasted for so long, but they had not seen much of Xia Wanyuan. The audience began to be unhappy.
[“Revenge” is really good at marketing. Why haven’t I heard that they’re participating in this show before? It’s quite amazing now. Those who don’t know might think that this is their home ground?]
[ I’m going to complain. Isn’t this fake publicity? I’m here to watch the show for Xia Wanyuan, okay? You inexplicably stuffed these few people in and even cut out Xia Wanyuan’s scene. I’m speechless. ]
[ I think this host is a love-struck fool. You’re the host, not a celebrity chaser, okay, Big Sister?? There’s someone sitting on stage. Aren’t you going to care about Xia Wanyuan? ]
Due to the deep resentment of the audience, many people even called the television station to complain.
The director kept reminding the host through the backstage. Only then did the host look at Xia Wanyuan reluctantly.
“Miss Xia, you’re so fair. You’re different from the Chinese I’m familiar with. You’re mixed-blood, right? Or are your ancestors Western?”
Xia Wanyuan’s expression was a little cold, but she still answered the question seriously. “I’m not mixed-blood. I’m Chinese.”
“Oh.” The host smiled strangely. “That’s really a one in a million skin color. It’s not easy to look like this.”
Before Xia Wanyuan could speak, the host asked another question. “Miss Xia, are you used to coming to our place?? There are many fun places in England. Miss Xia, you can take a look when you have the chance.”
“I will.”
After asking two symbolic questions, the host felt that it was enough. She turned her attention to the other two guests.
Another ten minutes passed. The director could not stand it anymore and kept gesturing to the host.
The host was dissatisfied and casually changed the topic.
Coincidentally, there was a special effect dragon that cost more than ten million yuan in “Revenge”. The host mentioned it and looked at Xia Wanyuan. “Miss Xia, have you seen the movie “Revenge”?”
“I haven’t had time to watch it.”
“The dragon special effects inside are quite good. I heard that you all claim to be the descendants of dragons. Miss Xia, take some time to take a look.”
After the host finished speaking, some people in the audience revealed mocking expressions.
There were many cultural differences in the East and West.
Just like a dragon.
In the West, dragons were the representatives of evil and violence. They usually had black bodies and sharp claws.
In the east, dragons were the representatives of dignity and auspiciousness.
At this moment, the host’s question clearly had ill intentions.
However, if Xia Wanyuan was angry, it would make her look too calculative.
Xia Wanyuan nodded calmly. “I’ll definitely take a look when I have the chance.”
The host could not be bothered to continue talking to Xia Wanyuan. She entered the next segment of the show.
For such a program, if one always sat and asked the other questions, it would be more boring, so there would be some entertainment.
The host looked at David in admiration. “I heard that you personally acted in the fighting scenes in the movie. How amazing.”
“It’s okay.” David was more humble. “I heard that this Miss Xia is especially good at fencing. She’s still the better one.”
The host did not think much of it. “That’s too violent in my opinion. David, can you review the scene in the movie for us live??”
David agreed and repeated it with his partner according to the scenes that had already been filmed in the movie, causing the audience to exclaim.
After the two male actors finished performing, the host looked at Xia Wanyuan. “I heard that Miss Xia is very good at dancing. I wonder if you can do a scene for us??”
Logically speaking, this request was not too much. After all, as a celebrity, it was normal to sing and dance.
However, the host’s tone made Xia Wanyuan feel offended.
She had a faint smile on her face and a disdainful gaze, as if she felt that Xia Wanyuan was a plaything.
Xia Wanyuan did not clash with her directly. Instead, she stood up and smiled. “Sure.”
With that, Xia Wanyuan looked at the director below. “Can you give me a sword?”
Actually, the program today had already arranged for Xia Wanyuan to fence, so the production team had prepared a sword.
However, the host spent too much time chatting with the other guests, causing Xia Wanyuan’s normal process to be compressed.
Now that Xia Wanyuan had asked for a sword, the production team could give it to her.
While the production team was preparing, Xia Wanyuan went backstage to change her clothes.
When she went on stage again, she was already dressed in ancient clothes. She was gentle and heroic.
Xia Wanyuan glanced at the host. “I might hit you. You can sit aside first.”
The host did not mind. “It’s okay. Do whatever you want.”
Xia Wanyuan did not say anything else. As the music sounded, Xia Wanyuan raised her arm.
Dance had always been gentle and beautiful in people’s understanding, while swords were hard and cold.
At this moment, the two had fused with Xia Wanyuan.
Her figure was graceful, and every move was extremely gentle. However, every time she attacked, she had an oppressive aura.
The host sat at the side and watched. Caught off guard, the sharp tip of the sword rushed straight at her. The host shouted in fear.
However, Xia Wanyuan’s sword only feinted and moved to the side, not stabbing towards the host.
Just as the host was about to recover from her shock, the sword intent attacked again.
After three to four times, the host stood below the stage in horror and did not dare to sit on the stage again.
In just three minutes, Xia Wanyuan had shown the audience a combination of strength and gentleness with her sword dance.
[ The host deserves it. She clearly deliberately ignored Xia Wanyuan just now, yet she still implicated her. ]
[Although I’m from England, I also want to say that this host is really a fool. She’s embarrassed our television station.]
[Xia Wanyuan’s sword dance is eye-catching. She’s so cool!!]
Xia Wanyuan was only more fierce when she danced with the sword, but in the eyes of the host, she felt that she could feel killing intent.
Hence, in the second half of the show, the host was especially obedient.
Not only did she conduct the interview according to the original procedure, but she also restrained the mockery and disdain on her face.
It turned out that the acceptance of beauty in the world was equally high.
Before the program ended that day, the viewership ratings in England had already exploded.
It was mainly because of Xia Wanyuan’s face.
Other than her face, the thing that received the most attention was Xia Wanyuan’s sword dance on the show.
At that moment, some enthusiastic Chinese netizens posted some of the fighting scenes Xia Wanyuan had filmed on the Internet.
There was no such thing as martial arts fights overseas. To them, fighting was more about borrowing the power of swords or technology.
Hence, when they saw Xia Wanyuan wearing ancient clothes and jumping down from the tall city wall, stepping on the water without leaving a trace and stepping on the bamboo leaves to easily float in the air, the netizens on the Internet were stunned.
Furthermore, Xia Wanyuan had a dancing foundation. When she danced with the sword, not only was it fierce, but it also had a dazzling beauty.
This magical martial arts world inexplicably hit the nail on the head of the netizens.
On this day, the domestic television drama producers discovered a magical phenomenon.
Why did the views of domestic martial arts dramas and Xianxia movies start to increase exponentially overseas?
