Entertainment: From Street Interviews to Global Stardom - Chapter 2

Chapter 2: Wu Jing Gets Angry!

The paparazzi were relentlessly following Wu Jing, not paying attention to the road, completely focused on filming him.

This made Wu Jing extremely angry: “Look there, there’s a scared child! Pay attention!”

Several of the paparazzi quickly responded, “We see it, we see it.”

“I’m telling you, this is really not good! What if you bump into the kid? Don’t make people hate you, don’t make people hate us, alright?” Wu Jing said, exasperated.

He appreciated his fans’ love, but he didn’t like how they were interfering with his work and studies, traveling all the way just to meet him at the airport.

He hoped he could bring positive energy to his fans, not cause chaotic stampede incidents like this!

“Hey hey hey, there are kids over there too, a lot of them! You all take a look, take a look, don’t make me…” Wu Jing didn’t finish his sentence, but his fist was already clenched, his teeth almost grinding.

He really, really, really wanted to speak up like Yang Fan did, confronting the crowd with confidence.

But Wu Jing was a public figure; he had to be mindful of his influence. He needed to set a good example for his fans.

So, Wu Jing forcefully swallowed his words.

Pointing at the paparazzi, he was both angry and helpless, but he couldn’t be too harsh, so he just sulked in silence.

The reporters, holding microphones, chattered and tried to ask questions, but Wu Jing waved his hand, signaling that he wasn’t giving any interviews today.

Soon, Wu Jing walked up to Yang Fan.

Without a word, he immediately clasped his hands together.

Very sincerely, he said to Hao Yue and Yang Fan, “I’m sorry, I apologize on behalf of my fans.”

A moment of hushed murmurs swept through the crowd.

“Wow, who are these two? Even Wu Jing is apologizing at the airport.”

“It’s those obsessive fans, right? If it weren’t for them, that poor girl wouldn’t have come so close to being blinded!”

“Yeah, even though we can’t see her face, just from her side profile, she’s definitely a beauty!”

“Hey, watch your language. What do you mean crazy fans? Our fans are not crazy, it’s those shameless internet celebrities who went too far!”

“Who cares if they’re internet celebrities or fans? In the end, the media will only report: Domestic actor Wu Jing, followed by fans, causes injury to a young girl.”

“Yeah, fans lack manners and end up ruining their idol’s reputation.”

Some fans, embarrassed by Wu Jing’s apology and the mocking comments from the bystanders, had their faces go red.

Meanwhile, Hao Yue, who had just graduated, had never experienced anything like this.

She was immediately stunned.

She didn’t care about whether her face would be caught on camera anymore and hurriedly waved her hands, saying, “Mr. Wu Jing, please don’t, please don’t do this! I’m also your fan, I can’t accept your apology!”

Hao Yue wasn’t someone who was unreasonable. This had nothing to do with Wu Jing; it was clearly the fault of the fans pushing and shoving, yet Wu Jing was taking the blame.

She wasn’t someone who would hold a grudge either. She just wanted the situation to end quickly: “Mr. Wu Jing, I really like you. If possible, could you give me an autograph?”

With Wu Jing apologizing, and her offering an escape route, hopefully, this issue could be put to rest.

“Of course!” Wu Jing responded with enthusiasm.

However, the awkward part was that Hao Yue had just disembarked from the plane and wasn’t even there to see Wu Jing. She didn’t have paper or a pen on hand.

In the end, Yang Fan handed over his notebook and pen, which he had been using to record interview questions, to ease the awkwardness.

Both Wu Jing and Hao Yue smiled gratefully at Yang Fan.

After getting the autograph, Hao Yue quickly grabbed it and ran off.

“Oh my God, I’m going to be late for my interview!”

Wu Jing quickly called over several airport security guards and politely asked them to escort her.

Hao Yue, holding the autograph with one hand and dragging her suitcase with the other, stood on the escalator and bowed to Yang Fan with gratitude. Today, she was truly thankful to this young man. The situation was special, so she didn’t have the chance to ask for his contact information.

She didn’t know if they’d ever meet again.

The reporters and internet celebrities were still trying to follow Hao Yue.

Yang Fan glared at them, and with a swift motion, the microphone in his hand producing a snapping sound.

Everyone froze in shock, no one daring to move another step!

Yang Fan himself was stunned!

He swore he hadn’t even put that much strength into it!

In the past, when he held a microphone with this force, nothing happened.

But now, with the body of a master-level martial artist, has his grip strength become so immense?

This… this was so embarrassing. How was he going to use this to interview Wu Jing?

Yang Fan was stunned, and the fans were even more shocked.

“Who is this guy? He’s a little tough to mess with!”

“I don’t know who he is, but it looks like Wu Jing seems pretty happy!”

“Look at Wu Jing, he’s smiling. I bet if the camera was off, he’d throw all the troublemakers out of the way!”

“I think that’s possible, hahaha.”

“Bro, what you’re saying makes so much sense!”

“Hahaha, no filter on that one!”

Wu Jing: “Hey, I won’t touch the evidence, it’s all there. Thankfully, this brother stepped in and helped out!”

“Bro, don’t back down, keep going, break all these stupid reporters and internet celebrities’ microphones!”

“And then, this anonymous reporter will say goodbye to the media world!”

“Damn, ruthless!”

After Wu Jing saw Hao Yue safely leave, he felt moved and immediately shook hands with Yang Fan.

“Brother, you’re definitely my brother!!!”

“You know I can’t scold or threaten my fans, so you stepped right up.”

“If you hadn’t saved that girl earlier, tomorrow, I’d definitely be on the front page!”

“Good brother, from now on, we’re like real brothers!”

“Bro, are you a reporter from Mango TV?” Wu Jing looked at the pen in his hand with the Mango logo and smiled as he asked.

“Hello, Mr. Wu Jing, I’m Yang Fan, a host from Mango Radio. It’s an honor to interview you!” Yang Fan quickly became serious, silently adjusting the broken microphone, pretending like nothing had happened.

Luckily, it was just the outer shell that broke. The internal parts were fine, so he could still use it.
