C-Pop Star Tia Lee’s animation series takes surprising plot twist in fourth episode

WASHINGTON, D.C., US – Media OutReach – 6 December 2022 – Nearing a record-breaking 100 million views over the first three episodes, superstar C-pop singer Tia Lee Yu Fen’s 2022 return continued to heat up with the release of the fourth instalment of her magical animation series – “GOODBYE PRINCESS” – featuring a surprising plot twist.

The drama-infused series took a romantic turn as a handsome prince made an appearance. The fourth episode – “Pawn to Queen” – starts with the princess – who was transformed into a puppet in episode 3 – landing on a chessboard. Having become a white pawn, the queen at the other end of the chessboard orders the black chess pieces to attack. Despite being in a dangerous situation, the princess keeps her composure and calmly evades the attack using her speed and skill. She eventually reaches the other side of the chessboard, where she is transformed back into a human. In the background, a mysterious castle appears out of nowhere, and a handsome prince knees before her, holds her hand and declares his love.

The story in the fourth episode of Tia Lee’s animation series featured a plethora of hidden messages, including:

  1. While the princess is falling at the beginning of the episode, she goes past a newspaper with the gossip headline . The queen is seen reading the same newspaper when she orders the other pieces to attack the white pawn.
  2. When fighting off attacks, the princess has a steely determination in her eyes, which recalls the grit and determination she showed to chase her dreams in the first three episodes.
  3. The animation series is building towards a gripping climax with the introduction of the prince.

Is there a happily ever after ending? Find out in the fifth episode of “GOODBYE PRINCESS“.

Olymp Trade donates food and clothes to 1000 plus low-income families in India

The platform shared the results of its new charity campaign

NEW DELHI, INDIA – Media OutReach – 6 December 2022 – Between October 21 and 26, Olymp Trade held Gifts from the Heart, a charity campaign in honor of Diwali. The platform and its users collectively donated more than $30,000 to brighten up the holiday for 1,000 low-income families in India.


The global trading platform committed to donating a share of its profits to charity and encouraged its clients to do the same. The funds raised during the five-day campaign were used to prepare 1,000 aid packages for underprivileged households in Vikaspuri, New Delhi.

Along with clothes, blankets and groceries, the packages contained must-have Diwali essentials, including diyas and sweets. They were handed to the Shikhar Dhawan Foundation, which distributed them among beneficiaries in early November. Cricket star Shikhar Dhawan himself contributed to the event by producing an emotional video appeal for Gifts from the Heart.

Olymp Trade’s сharitable initiatives

Established in 2014, Olymp Trade provides online brokerage services to about 88 million users worldwide, and is available in 14 languages, including Hindi.

Gifts from the Heart is the company’s third charity campaign in India, following two relief missions in Chennai, Mumbai and Delhi. This endeavor is yet more proof of Olymp Trade’s fundamental commitment to improving the life of local communities, aligning with the company’s mission to help people from diverse backgrounds rise above their circumstances and attain financial freedom.

According to Olymp Trade’s representative, the company is fully satisfied with the results of the mission:

“We are happy that Gifts from the Heart brightened up the lives of 1,000 Indian families that would otherwise have been left without holiday gifts. It was more than just another charity mission for us. We really felt that we were spreading light and hope.

Our deepest gratitude goes to Shikhar Dhawan Foundation for sending our aid to those who needed it most.”

The platform will continue to make positive changes in the regions of its presence. _________________________________________________________________________________________
