Seeing the strong momentum of *Princess Huanzhu*'s premiere, Hunan TV, Joyful Video, and Aifei Entertainment all chose to strike while the iron was hot.
As the broadcast platforms, Hunan TV and Joyful Video naturally ramped up their promotional efforts, further boosting the drama's visibility.
Meanwhile, Aifei Entertainment was also hard at work.
In addition to fully cooperating with the two major platforms on promotional activities, the later stages of *Princess Huanzhu*'s filming were also being rushed to completion.
Fortunately, the cast and crew were already dedicated and hardworking individuals. The positive reviews and high ratings following the drama's premiere greatly boosted the team's morale.
Under such an atmosphere, everyone's enthusiasm soared, and filming efficiency reached new heights. Moreover, *Princess Huanzhu* had already been half-filmed before its premiere.
With this concerted effort, the production team even exceeded expectations, completing all filming tasks ahead of schedule and wrapping up production early.
As the male and female leads, all of Fu Shan and Xu Yifei's scenes were the first to wrap up.
While other actors were still filming at the film city, Fu Shan and Xu Yifei embarked on their journey to the coastal town of Wei Island.
This was because the dating reality show they had previously agreed to participate in, *Sweet Romance*, was about to begin filming.
Wei Island, in fact, was the filming location for the first season of *Sweet Romance*.
At four in the afternoon, Fu Shan and Xu Yifei finally arrived at Wei Island Airport after a long journey.
The moment they appeared in the airport lobby, hand in hand, they were swarmed by a massive crowd, packed three layers deep, forming an impenetrable wall:
"Fu Shan! Fu Shan! Fu Shan!"
"Xu Yifei! Xu Yifei! Xu Yifei!"
"Ahhh, I finally get to see the real Fu Shan and Xu Yifei! Cough, I mean their actual selves! Ahhh, they're even more handsome and beautiful in person!"
"Did you see Fu Shan and Xu Yifei holding hands? Ahhh, Shanfei CP is ecstatic! Ecstatic! Fu Shan and Xu Yifei are perfect for each other! Shanfei CP forever!"
***
The crowd was electric, forming a tight circle around Fu Shan and Xu Yifei, their screams and cheers echoing incessantly.
Beyond the local residents of Wei Island, many had traveled from afar to stake out the airport early in the morning, determined to welcome Fu Shan and Xu Yifei. These were all fans of the duo, as well as a vast number of moviegoers.
Among them were numerous Shanfei CP fans.
Xu Yifei, the nation's beloved goddess, already commanded a massive fan base. Her powerful comeback this year had propelled her popularity to new heights, causing her fan and follower numbers to skyrocket.
Meanwhile, Fu Shan had gained countless fans after his successful portrayal of male lead Xu Zeyan in *A Smile Is All It Takes*. The ongoing success of *Princess Huanzhu* had further boosted their combined appeal, attracting another wave of fans.
As a result, the already substantial fan bases of the two stars had exploded. This led to the current scene: an absurdly dense, multi-layered crowd of enthusiastic fans, moviegoers, and CP fans, completely surrounding the duo and leaving no room to move.
The moment they saw the crowd, Fu Shan and Xu Yifei were both stunned.
Clearly, they were also somewhat bewildered by the overwhelming spectacle before them.
Alright, they knew they were quite popular.
But...
Who could have imagined they were *this* popular?
After a brief moment of shock, Fu Shan quickly regained his composure and began to methodically manage the situation:
"Everyone, please settle down! Don't push or rush. Let's maintain order and go one by one!"
Having experienced similar airport crowds before, Fu Shan swiftly organized the throng, guiding them away from the terminal to ensure normal airport operations and ease of travel for others.
He then led the fans to a nearby open space for interactions.
Meanwhile, He Xiaoyun and the other assistants quickly purchased food and drinks, distributing them orderly to every fan in attendance.
At the same time, Fu Shan laughed heartily:
"You've all come so far to greet us, and I'm sure you're hungry and thirsty. Please, have something to eat and drink to refresh yourselves! Xu Yifei and I are deeply grateful for all your love and support. Thank you for making the special trip to welcome us!"
After these heartfelt words, Fu Shan and Xu Yifei together bowed deeply to the fans and admirers present.
The crowd erupted in a frenzy, their voices brimming with joy and emotion:
"Wow, Fu Shan and Xu Yifei are so genuine! They're nothing like those stars who only know how to rip us off, begging for crowdfunding and donations while acting all arrogant."
"Exactly! They really spoil their fans. And they're so down-to-earth and sincere!"
"I'd heard from other fans how much Fu Shan and Xu Yifei spoil their fans, but experiencing it firsthand today... Ahhh, I'm so excited! Who wouldn't love stars like these? I'm going to be a fan for life!"
"Me too! You can't go wrong investing in such a wonderful pair of stars! It's a guaranteed win!"
***
The scene was both lively and heartwarming.
Fu Shan and Xu Yifei interacted with their fans and admirers who had come to greet them until sunset, finally waving goodbye.
Seeing that it was getting late, and not wanting to overwork Fu Shan and Xu Yifei, the fans finally bid them reluctant farewell.
The moment the crowd dispersed, a middle-aged man, flanked by several subordinates, rushed forward and approached Fu Shan and Xu Yifei.
"Mr. Fu, Miss Xu, hello! I'm Qin Feng, the director of *Sweet Romance*. I've come specifically to take you to the program's recording base."
The man smiled warmly as he introduced himself.
It turned out he was Qin Feng, an old friend of Jiang Jinsong.
Earlier, it was Qin Feng who had rushed to Jiang Jinsong's house and pleaded with him until he finally agreed to ask Fu Shan if he was willing to participate in the dating variety show *Sweet Romance*.
This was how Fu Shan and Xu Yifei ended up here today.
"Oh, Director Qin. Then please lead the way!"
Fu Shan smiled in understanding and nodded slightly at Qin Feng and his staff.
Meanwhile, a crew member with a camera nearby had already captured the entire scene...
