Moreover, she did not feel uncomfortable. Even if she felt a little uncomfortable, she told herself that this was the only way to be an actress.
It was just a small advertisement. But once her television drama and movie were broadcasted, it would not be as simple as the students paying attention to her. People might even recognize her when she went shopping.
Therefore, she had to force herself to adapt now. This was the self-cultivation of a public figure.
When they returned to class, the students surrounded them immediately.
“Qinghuan, I saw you on television.”
“I saw it too. When did you endorse Guoyou fountain pens? Why didn’t we know?”
“That’s right. There’s no news at all. When I saw the advertisement on television, I thought I was seeing things.”
…
If it were in the past, these students would not dare to approach Xia Qinghuan. However, after the autumn trip, the students in the class had closed the distance between them. In addition, Xia Qinghuan was the class monitor, so she could not help but talk to the students in the class. Over time, everyone understood her character better. She was not cold, but her aura was too strong, making people feel she was difficult to approach in the past.
Xia Qinghuan sat in her seat and looked at the surrounding students. She smiled and asked, “All of you saw that?”
Everyone nodded.
Seeing this, Xia Qinghuan couldn’t help but smile. Then, she raised her hand and placed her bag on the table. “Since you’ve seen it, everyone will have a share!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Qinghuan unzipped her bag and everyone saw the latest Guoyou fountain pens. It was the one Xia Qinghuan had endorsed in the advertisement.
“One each. There’s no need to choose. The styles are all the same. The packaging takes up too much space, so I threw it away,” Xia Qinghuan said with a smile.
When the students heard this, they immediately exploded.
Guoyou fountain pens were the most expensive brand among domestic fountain pens. Back then, Jian Ai gave Lin Yi a relatively cheap model that cost over two hundred yuan.
The latest model that Xia Qinghuan endorsed cost almost a thousand yuan. Even the students of Erzhong were not willing to use such an expensive fountain pen.
At this moment, Xia Qinghuan brought one for everyone in the class.
“Qinghuan, do we all have one?”
“How much is this?!”
“There are fifty students in our class!”
The students were shocked. They wanted to take it but did not dare to. After all, it was too expensive.
Xia Qinghuan smiled indifferently. “Don’t think about these useless things. As a spokesperson, isn’t it easy for me to ask the manufacturer for products? I didn’t spend money, so I specially asked for them for everyone. However, each of you will only get one. Don’t take too much!”
When everyone heard this, they couldn’t help but look delighted. Only then did they feel relieved and reach out to take one each.
Looking at the smiles on the students’ faces, Xia Qinghuan was in an excellent mood. So that was what it meant by ‘the roses in her hand, the flavor in mine.’
The speech competition lasted for three days, from the preliminary round to the semi-finals and the finals.
English differed from other languages. Many children were talented in languages, and speaking required emotions. Even if it was an English speech, it had to be emotional. Although Jian Ai’s results were good and her English was passable, it was not the best.
Jian Ai was not good at giving speeches. She barely passed the preliminary round and got eliminated in the semi-finals.
On the other hand, Jian Yichen was unexpectedly powerful. He overcame all obstacles and PKed twenty-six cities in China. There were fifty-two participants, and in the end, he won first place in the country!
