Work and Money
Should you trust someone who says they know a major celebrity and can offer you opportunities?
English translation draft · Based on the Chinese article. This is not a word-for-word translation approved by Master Shengyuan.
Knowing a celebrity alone does not mean someone can certainly offer you opportunities. At some events, a celebrity really may have appeared but stayed only briefly. Someone who remains afterward may use that connection to claim they can promote you or arrange work. The celebrity's presence does not guarantee these promises.
While working in public relations and encountering acting and extra work, I saw some such situations and heard accounts from friends and clients. One woman told me herself that, hoping for more performance opportunities, she had an intimate relationship with a famous person. She did not receive the opportunities she expected and deeply regretted it. This is what she told me; it does not justify saying everyone in entertainment behaves the same way.
I understand wanting to succeed and improve your life. But you still need to examine the methods you use and promises you believe. Seeing celebrities around someone does not mean that person can really deliver for you. Hearing 'I can help you' should not lead you to surrender all judgment. Fame, gain, and opportunities are attractive; the more attractive they are, the more carefully you need to consider what you are doing.
