Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 343 Questions



The series, drenched in blood and brutality, was produced locally but faced rejection for domestic airing.

Its script should have been finalised by now.

Securing a lead actress proved an arduous task. The search was marred by constant setbacks and failed attempts at funding.

Even when financial backing was finally secured, the casting process dragged on, marred by delays and difficulties.

Ultimately, while the show earned acclaim abroad, the actress who had portrayed the lead role found herself banned from the mainland.

She was left with no choice but to continue her career overseas.

It was a fate that sparked considerable sympathy online.

Rumours eventually surfaced suggesting that the actress's ban was not directly related to 'Nirvana and Rebirth'.

Instead, it was a cover for personal grievances. The real issue was her clash with a powerful director's wife, which led to her being blacklisted under the guise of this series's controversy.

Violeta, deep in thought, pulled out her phone and sent a message to Eugene. 'Eugene, could you help me find information on someone named Danielle Wilmore? She should be an intern screenwriter now.'

Eugene received the message and, though he was uncertain about Violeta's interest, responded promptly. 'Alright, I'll see what I can find, though I can't promise anything.'

Danielle's name was unknown to Eugene, and he had no clue about her gender or background.

Nheless, he promised to inquire within the industry. There might be someone who could provide information.

...

A few hours later, Violeta arrived at the shopping mall for her event.

As she stepped into view, the crowd outside erupted in enthusiastic cheers.

"Kyah!!"

"It's Violeta!"

"She's so beautiful."

Inside the bustling shopping mall, Violeta navigated through a sea of admirers and curious shoppers.

As she moved, many people drew out their phones, eager to capture a glimpse of the star.

The mall's security team worked to clear a path, ensuring that Violeta could advance without obstruction, while her fans trailed behind, their excitement palpable.

Upon arriving at the brand's counter, Violeta was greeted by the host and staff, all waiting in anticipation.

Clad in a form-fitting white gown that accentuated her figure, Violeta offered a bright smile. "Hello, everyone, I'm Violeta."

"Kyaaaaah!"

The reaction was swift and enthusiastic, with cheers and applause echoing through the mall.

The host then proceeded with the

event's agenda, introducing the new products and activities of the brand. They also mentioned special offers, including a chance to have a

close-up photo with Violeta for those who made significant purchases in the store.

Though Violeta was still relatively new to the industry, her rising fame had made her a sought-after presence.

The brand she was endorsing was a

ran

high-end cosmetics line, and the patrons there were evidently well-off, The minimum spending into the thousands. This far surpassed the brand's projections for the number of complimentary gifts they had prepared.

After an hour, the event came to a close.

Violeta said her goodbyes and headed for her car.

A few fans followed, eager to engage with her.

Rather than remaining aloof, Violeta responded to their questions with patience and even rolled down her car window to wave as she departed.

Aster remarked, "Ms. White, you're genuinely considerate. Many celebrities wouldn't bother with their fans, let alone take the time to wave goodbye from their car."

Violeta shrugged lightly. "Artists and fans are interdependent. A bit of kindness can make their day, and I see no harm in that."

Aster replied, "That's true, but while the principle is understood by many, not everyone acts on it."

Fans often sought little a glance, a smile-and it could make a significant difference to their day.

Yet, some celebrities chose to ignore them, hiding behind sunglasses and remaining distant.

Some fans even convinced themselves that their disappointment was their own fault for being too demanding.

Aster, seasoned and discerning from

her years in the industry, had seen many celebrities perform dual roles-one for the public and another behind closed doors. This disparity often left her feeling a pang of injustice for fans who followed schedules meticulously, only to be met with indifference.

After thorough searching, Eugene finally tracked down the intern screenwriter named Danielle.

Upon Violeta's return to the office, Eugene relayed his findings.

"I've located her. Danielle Wilmore is an intern at InkQuill Studio. What's your interest in her?" Eugene asked.

Violeta's response was straightforward, "She's got a script that piques my interest."

Eugene was momentarily stunned. "Danielle? An intern? Is she even qualified to write a script on her own?"

Eugene went on, "And considering the scripts I previously showed you were from seasoned writers, which you didn't find compelling, how could you be interested in an intern's work?"

Violeta countered, "Isn't the quality of a story more about talent than experience? Just because she's an intern doesn't mean she can't craft an exceptional script. Her title merely reflects her current standing, not her ability."

Eugene replied, "Your point is reasonable, but there's an inherent risk in scripts from an intern. Beyond the quality, who would invest in a script from someone still gaining experience?"

Eugene's scepticism was clear.

It was a common stance in the industry where new talents often needed time to demonstrate their worth before gaining trust and opportunities. Yet, Violeta might be the chance Danielle needed to prove her abilities.
