The character of striking while the iron is hot often refers to a person who can boldly seize the opportunity, fully express himself, and become famous in one fell swoop.

Susan Hayward is beautiful, slender, and sexy. Her youth was the heyday of the development of major Hollywood production companies. Like other child stars, she became a contract actor with the dream of becoming a Hollywood movie star. In her first few months in Hollywood, she faced not cameras but cameras. She posed in a swimsuit and modeled for advertisements day after day. Her charming smile spread all over the world with advertisements in newspapers and magazines. Readers, who are also fans of the movie, already have a feeling of admiration and longing for her.

However, Susan never got the chance to be an actress. When she asked her boss, the answer she got was always: "Wait patiently, I will recommend you one day."

Once, an opportunity suddenly came. In 1938, Paramount held a nationwide film sales conference in Los Angeles. Susan was notified of the hotel ballroom. Many movie theater owners and businessmen from various states came to the ballroom. Before the stars hit the ballroom, Paramount had hyped up its movie.

The movie stars met the audience one after another. When Susan appeared on the stage, the venue burst into cheers. She hadn't realized this was an opportunity. She faced the audience, smiled like an old friend, and said, "I know you all know me. Have any of you seen my photo?" Many people in the audience immediately raised their hands.

"Has anyone seen my image in the movie?" No one raised their hands, only laughter.

Susan struck while the iron was hot and asked: "Are you willing to see my image in the movie?"

Thunderous applause sounded in the venue instead of answering.

Susan improvised this plan and succeeded, so she said: "So, would you like to send a message to the production company?"

This is the first time. According to public opinion polls, so many audience representatives wanted to see Susan's image in the movie. The boss of the production company obtained the results of this public opinion poll and could completely judge that if Susan was invited to star in the film, the film would definitely be popular. Soon Susan was hired to act, appeared on the screen, and became a big star. Her role in "I Wanna Survive" won her an Academy Award.

Don’t you admit that Susan Hayward is a master of striking while the iron is hot and becoming famous in one fell swoop?

Only when a person is good at seizing opportunities, can he express his unique character and abilities at the best moment, and can he win in life.
