My Dreamy Old Husband

Chapter 229

It was every celebrity’s dream to get an invitation letter to the Academy Awards ceremony. After all, being qualified to walk on the red carpet at the Academy Awards ceremony was symbolic of one’s status and standing in the entertainment industry.

Endorsements for high-end products and the red carpets of prestigious awards ceremonies were battlefields for the celebrities to flaunt their standings in the entertainment industry!

Therefore, Cethosian celebrities would do whatever they could to get an invitation letter to the Academy Awards ceremony in order to show off—even if it meant throwing money around to get invited as sponsors.

Taylor and Harry had chosen the perfect timing for their return to Cethos, for the Cethosian celebrities who had attended the Academy Awards ceremony happened to be coming back around the same time. Because of that, Bayside International Airport became a battlefield for fans of different celebrities over these few days.

Before anyone had realized, viewerships and box offices had ceased to be significant benchmarks of a celebrity’s public influence. Instead, a celebrity’s popularity had come to be defined by how many likes and retweets he or she received, how frequently his or her name was searched on the Internet, and the number of fans coming to meet him or her at the airport.

As a result, some celebrities pretended to be popular by paying hired supporters to boost their online popularity; they even hired temporary actors to pose as fans who were there to meet them at the airport.

Before entering the departure lobby, the admins of Taylor and Harry’s fan groups—who were leading the crowd—warned everyone, “There is no need to care about what others do. Just focus on what we’re doing, and don’t come into conflict with fans of other celebrities. Many fans are hired on a part-time basis at 100 per day.”

As they entered the departure lobby, Sophia felt as though she had opened the door to a world she had never seen before.

The departure lobby was already filled with huge crowds of people; fans of different celebrities were packed like sardines, and some celebrities even had up to thousands of fans coming to meet them at the airport!

For the celebrities, this was a matter of face. Therefore, they had to spend a fortune to hire people to pose as their fans even if they didn’t have so many followers in reality!

 

Compared to the swarm of fans who came to meet their idols at the airport in the thousands, the mere 100 fans who came for Taylor and Harry were quite a sorry sight!

There was barely any space for them in the lobby, so the two fan groups huddled together in a corner.
