Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 422 The Trilogy



The live stream included a Q&A session with fans and giveaways of drama merchandise throughout.

It lasted two and a half hours, accumulating over 100 million viewers, with a peak concurrent viewership of 2 million.

The success of the drama brought numerous benefits.

Prior to 'Nirvana and Rebirth', Violeta's success had only earned her endorsements from two prestigious luxury brands after winning the Best Supporting Actress award.

However, the drama's phenomenal reception catapulted her into a new league.

Top luxury brands and even exclusive jewelry houses clamored for her endorsement, a rare feat for a young actress.

Her peers could only watch with envy as her career skyrocketed.

More and more fans followed Violeta's offline activities.

During a brand promotion at a shopping mall, the crowd of fans who came to see Violeta filled the entire mall, with more people outside, demonstrating her immense popularity.

Violeta's influence was undeniable.

Any brand she touched became an instant sell-out, from luxury bags to watches.

Even the wealthy couldn't resist the allure of celebrity endorsement.

From the beginning, Violeta's biggest fan, "Little Sheep," had always accompanied her to every event.

He would always have first-hand photos of the events on his Facebook page, which had nearly a million followers.

However, his Facebook page contained nothing but beautiful photos of Violeta, earning it the nickname "Violeta's Photo Gallery."

Violeta's meteoric rise was truly unparalleled among her peers.

However, her success cast a shadow on her label mate, Chad.

Chad had originally played the affectionate second male lead in "As Soon As We Meet," hoping to gain popularity.

But unexpectedly, it was crushed by 'Nirvana and Rebirth'.

To make matters worse, his team's attempts to leverage Lydia's fame backfired, alienating her fanbase and drawing their ire.

Following the broadcast of "As Soon As We Meet," Chad did gain some fans for his portrayal of the devoted second male lead, but it wasn't enough to propel him to the top tier of male artists.

Therefore, Chad couldn't achieve instant fame like Nolan and Jacques with just one drama.

His path to success was still long.

Tracy continued filming on set as usual.

Zelena was envious of Violeta's development but currently had no way to break through, so she could only steadily participate in variety shows and build a good rapport with the audience.

Hattie had been diligently currying favor with brand representatives.

However, ever since Violeta revealed Hattie's intentions to Liam, Hattie had been sanctioned by Liam's mother, temporarily hindering her ambitions to cozy up to other

wealthy families.

Left with no choice, Hattie could only turn her attention back to the film and television industry and started accepting acting roles.

Now that she was taking on acting roles again, she inevitably had to compete with her peers.

Hannah helped Hattie select a few promising scripts, among which the most promising was the fantasy drama "The Tale of the Chosen One: Guardians of the Divine Lineage."

This drama was a trilogy, centered around the main storyline of a descendant of divine lineage.

It told the story of the female protagonist, as the descendant of divine, experiencing love across three lifetimes before choosing to give up love and save the world.

While the plot of might have been familiar, the production team's reputation for quality reassured Hannah.

She saw this as Hattie's chance to elevate her career, attract lucrative endorsements, and potentially even earn awards.

Trusting Hannah's judgment, Hattie readily accepted the role.

Meanwhile, Zelena, who had been focused on other projects, also recognized the immense potential of the "The Chosen One" trilogy.

She recalled how it would achieve classic status and even spawn a movie adaptation in the future.

Having missed out on "Blind Detective," Zelena was determined not to let another golden opportunity slip through her fingers.

Zelena immediately asked her agent to negotiate for a role in the drama.

However, her hopes were dashed when she discovered that the coveted female lead had already been given to Hattie.

Zelena's frustration was palpable upon hearing the report.

"Hannah always seems to handpick the best opportunities for Hattie," she complained to her agent, Trina. "Does she even consider if Hattie is up to the task?"

Trina suggested, "Maybe we should try for the second female lead."

Zelena frowned. "Second female lead?"All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

After debuting as a female lead, the thought of playing second fiddle to Hattie, especially so early in her career, was a bitter pill to swallow.
