Hu Dongtian have prepared well for the evening. He had practiced the questions several times, researched on how actors do their interviews, and carefully crafter his smile in front of a mirror.
That doesn't mean that he had lost his nervousness.
In fact, the more he prepares, the more he thinks about this big endeavor that will deeply affect his reputation and image, the more he became anxious and paranoid. It's hard to breath. He could not sleep at all and would wake up at night rehearsing and rehearsing his lines again and again.
What if he embarrasses himself?
What if he ruins the Hu family name?
What if he stutters or slip, or makes a complete fool of himself?
It had always been this way, since he was young. He had always been cautious of errors. So much so that it could be called paranoia.
He had been raised to achieve nothing but perfection, and if he cannot attain and maintain that, then he is a failure of a person.
