He knew how tired and exhausted the actor was after so many years in the entertainment industry. All else aside, as a friend, he sincerely hoped that the actor would be able to leave such a foul place as the entertainment industry.

Qin Zhou walked over to him and raised an eyebrow. “I have a feeling your Weibo is going to explode after this press conference.”

“I think I can already imagine that,” Hua Jin said.

There was a difference between male artistes and female artistes. The universality of female artistes seemed lesser than that of male artistes. After all, the target crowd of the entertainment industry was women. And women lose their tendency to be rational rather easily. If they knew that their idol was stepping back from the entertainment industry, most of them would be devastated.

Somehow, news of the actor’s departure from the entertainment industry seemed to spread like wildfire. Qin Zhou suspected that a Huanyu insider had released the news. No outsider would have been privy to this matter.

The news that Hua Jin was leaving the entertainment industry quickly spread among many of his fans. But no one wanted to believe it. They would rather believe the news from some time ago that he had an illegitimate daughter, perhaps even a secret marriage, over the news that he was bidding farewell to the entertainment industry and retreating from their sight.

Idols.

Sometimes, an idol, under many circumstances, may become a spiritual anchor for fans.

It would be hard to adapt to a sudden loss of spiritual sustenance.

The press conference was about to begin. The media representatives took their seats.

Many media outlets had also received news that Hua Jin might be quitting the entertainment industry, but they were not sure if the press conference was to clarify the rumors or to really announce his withdrawal from the entertainment industry.

The press conference commenced.

Qin Zhou was concise and gave a short opening speech. Then, he announced publicly that Hua Jin, an artiste under Huanyu’s original banner, would temporarily leave the entertainment industry for personal reasons.

The actor stood up and bowed slightly. Through the camera, he apologized to his fans and promised that even though he would no longer be part of the entertainment industry, he would update his life on his personal blog account. He would also be involved in charity activities in the future, in the name of the Hua Jin Fan Club.

A reporter stood up and asked a curious question. “Is your withdrawal from the entertainment industry related to the previous rumors that you had an illegitimate daughter?”

There was an uproar.

Many people were aware of the rumor that Hua Jin had an illegitimate daughter, but no one expected someone to raise this question in public.

For a moment there was awkwardness. But the actor faced it squarely. He said truthfully, “I’m sure many people saw the photos secretly taken by your media reporters. I’m here to explain this.”

“That girl is not my biological daughter, but an orphan I adopted. However, I want to give her a warm home. At the same time, I want to protect her from the attention of the outside world.”

“I’m sorry that this news has had some negative impact on the public, but I also hope that in the future, media reporters will not intrude on my personal life. It’s okay for you to secretly photograph me. The child is innocent. I want her to have a positive environment to grow up in, an undisturbed childhood, in summary.”

…

Hua Jin had quit the entertainment industry!

This matter was made official at the Huanyu press conference!

Many fans broke down.
