Chapter 1004: Chapter 1004: Increasing Exposure
She knew that Jimmy Simmons had a falling out with his uncle, so she also believed his attitude toward Hannah wouldn’t be much better.
As for what happened before, it must have been Jimmy Simmons deliberately confusing Hannah!
Yes, deliberately confusing!
Tiffany Lynch firmly believed this idea, and she instantly felt more at ease.
Since Hannah Winter was now on the set and it was a closed filming, Tiffany decided to make good use of this time – she had to make appearances, show her face, and seize the popularity and attention that belonged to Hannah.
For the sake of exposure, Tiffany had her agent accept a large number of variety show engagements.
Perhaps inspired by Hannah’s prior "infamous fame," Tiffany started to change her strategy. Whenever she appeared on a variety show, she would have write-ups done to slander other actresses or permanent guests.
Of course, she was the one being slandered.
Such strategy made it easier to craft an image of herself as a victim – people would only think other actresses were jealous of her, and the write-ups were done by someone else.
Indeed, this method brought her a lot of attention. There were not a few netizens who fell for it, and at first, even felt sorry for Tiffany.
But this kind of tactic could not be sustained for long, and it didn’t take long for people to notice something was amiss.
—— Are we sure these write-ups aren’t bought by Tiffany Lynch herself? The same script appeared just last month, right?
—— Once or twice, you feel sorry for Tiffany Lynch, but after a while, it’s really odd. How come her name is everywhere?
—— It’s all marketing, really. It’s all about attention and clicks. Internet stuff is just for fun, no need to take it too seriously.
—— There’s no way to defend her, the rumors about Tiffany Lynch trading votes during the talent show and hitting people on set are true.
—— Such an old trick, pretending to be a victim here!
—— Is Tiffany Lynch counting on being a two-faced tortoise? How can she fake it so well?
What goes around comes around.
When the attention and traffic reached a certain level, Tiffany inevitably encountered the issue of her public persona collapsing again.
Even her fans started to get tired of this kind of behavior, advising her to focus on her acting career and get on set quickly.
Although Smile 9 had disbanded, the competition between Hannah and Tiffany had never stopped.
At least that’s how the fans saw it.

Three months later, the "Rosalind" crew finished filming.
In these three months, as a director who had won international awards, Thomas Campbell was particularly strict about the arrangement of the scenes and the lighting requirements, even down to the precision of each micro-expression of the actors.
If there was even a slight dissatisfaction, it necessitated a reshoot.
Sometimes, a scene could be repeated dozens of times, until the actors themselves couldn’t take it anymore and were on the verge of breakdown before it would meet his standards.
Yet even under such high-intensity filming, not a single person in the crew complained.
Opportunities are hard to come by, and nobody wanted to let go.
Hannah, as the highest-profile actor in the film, surprisingly persevered without a single complaint throughout the entire process.
Throwing one’s weight around was out of the question.
Even the hot-tempered Thomas Campbell became especially compliant in dealing with her, and when he was angry, seeing Hannah’s obedient and clever smile would cool his temper significantly.
Thomas Campbell was someone who cherished talent, and encountering an actor who was so much to his liking, he couldn’t wait to show her off.
At the wrap-up party, he invited quite a few friends from the industry, and having had a bit too much to drink, he boasted and recited her praises to everyone.
