There was still a long road ahead.
“I’ll be leaving,” the agent said, a tinge of regret in his voice. “Since there’s no hope with RM, I’ll have to look at other brands for you. It’s a pity.”
Xu Jiannian nodded in agreent.
Indeed, it was a significant loss.
An endorsent from RM could have been his ticket to international fa.
Which artist in the dostic entertainnt industry didn’t dream of breaking into Glenn?
Rubbing his temples, Xu Jiannian’s phone rang.
He hesitated before answering. “Hello?”
“I’ve been watching your live broadcast. You’re too close to Si Fuqing,” the voice on the other end sounded aggrieved. “Even though you’re using her, you must promise you won’t fall for her.”
Xu Jiannian chuckled reassuringly. “Don’t worry, I won’t. She’s just a tool to protect you. Once the right ti cos and I win the award, we’ll go public.”
For now, he needed his fans. Once he transford into a movie star, he wouldn’t have as many concerns.
“Survival 66 Days,” the reality show, was already one-third through its filming.
The first episode had just aired.
With Su Yang’s participation and interaction, Si Fuqing, unsurprisingly, gained a surge of new followers, nearing 15 million active fans.
The live broadcast viewership was also increasing.
[I want to see what’s so great about this woman and how many more tis she can make kneel.]
[Only after watching Si Fuqing did I realize that variety shows could also create legends.]
[My wife! When will you pray for rain again? Or maybe pray for money to fall from the sky?]
Si Fuqing was speechless.
If she had such abilities, would she need to work?
As the show progressed, the third group of special stars arrived.
“Qingqing!” Lu Ningsheng removed her sunglasses and ran over. “We et again. You look much better!”
Si Fuqing smiled and shook hands with her. “Teacher Lu.”
Her relationship with Lu Ningsheng wasn’t very deep, having only recorded a few episodes of “Youth With You” together.
However, Lu Ningsheng had always been on her side, even speaking up for her during her plastic surgery controversy.
[Oh my, it makes feel like Si Fuqing has connections across the entire entertainnt industry.]
[Last ti it was Su Yang, this ti it’s Queen Lu. Who says Si Fuqing has no connections?]
[Rumor has it Lu Ningsheng’s vocal cords are damaged. Hasn’t she been absent from concerts for a year? She’s falling from her throne.]
[MO Yufei and Lu Ningsheng were university classmates and from the sa company, right? MO Yufei’s career has surpassed Lu Ningsheng’s in the past two years.]
Alongside Lu Ningsheng, the other guest star was MO Yufei, also a singer.
The day’s filming ended smoothly.
The director had estimated at least ten hours, but with Si Fuqing, the show’s “hack,” it ended in less than half the ti, leaving him feeling lifeless.
Since they had to go out to sea the next day, the show booked a hotel in town.
After nearly a month of filming, the guests finally got to rest in proper beds.
In her room, Si Fuqing opened her laptop and logged into “Oracle.” She imdiately received a ssage from the official custor service.
[Custor Service]: NINE the God, do you have ti to attend the Oracle offline player gathering in August? We’re turning nine!
[NINE]: No ti.
[Custor Service]: Please, NINE the God, everyone wants to et you. It’s been nine years, won’t you co out just once?
[NINE]: No use being coquettish.
[Custor Service]: You’re so heartless, wuwuwu.
Si Fuqing coldly closed the chat window.
Why had Oracle’s custor service suddenly beco so silly?
Another email in her ga inbox was a mass ssage from the official group.
Si Fuqing opened it.
#0racle’s 9th Anniversary The Song Coming Soon!#
Players were guessing which singer Oracle would invite this ti.
Last year it was Su Yang, whose voice was as powerful as international stars, gaining Great Xia’s music recognition in the Western Continent.
But this year, it was likely to be a singer from the Western Continent.
Si Fuqing tapped her fingers on the table, deep in thought.
She had composed and written the lyrics for Oracle’s third anniversary the song.
Ti had flown by so quickly.
She could do sothing.
Closing her laptop, Si Fuqing headed to the communal bathroom.
The director had booked a shabby little hotel with cleanliness as its only rit, lacking many facilities.
Before entering, she heard an argunt inside between Lu Ningsheng and MO Yufei.
Lu Ningsheng’s tone was icy: “You’re insane, MO Yufei! It was you who went to He Yu’s room, not . We have no connection! And you want to admit it was ? Are you joking?”
MO Yufei had a pure image, but everyone in the industry knew her private life was chaotic, frequently changing boyfriends and having regular flings.
Online speculation had already begun to point towards her as the person involved, but the company was keeping a tight lid on it, preventing any significant leaks.
MO Yufei couldn’t afford to shatter her carefully crafted public image.
Not to ntion, she was a full ten years older than He Yu. If the truth were to co out completely, He Yu’s fans would not let it rest.
“You should have realized, Ningsheng, your vocal cords are damaged. If not for your songvvriting talent, the company would have abandoned you long ago,” MO Yufei said soothingly. “Look at the bright side. You beca the initiator of the group, ‘Youth With You’ beca a hit, and even Glenn noticed. You should be grateful.”
Lu Ningsheng scoffed, “So I should cover up your scandal?”
“Don’t be so harsh. I didn’t want to choose you, but we’re similar in build, and you happened to be in the hotel,” MO Yufei laughed lightly. “Anyway, you’re leaving the industry. Once you’re out, no one will care about your life. This is what the company wants.”
MO Yufei casually ntioned, “By the way, if your vocal cords were fine, you’d have been chosen for Oracle’s anniversary the song. Sorry, now the opportunity is mine.”
“Oracle” was the one ga every artist wanted to associate with.
After singing last year’s anniversary the song, Su Yang’s popularity skyrocketed.
Oracle’s audience was massive.
Lu Ningsheng stared coldly at her.
“Don’t worry, even if you don’t speak up, the company will do it for you,” MO
Yufei smiled. “After this show, you can be the ordinary person you wish to be.”
She didn’t spare another glance at Lu Ningsheng and pushed open the bathroom door, coming face to face with Si Fuqing.
MO Yufei quickly averted her gaze, unconcerned whether Si Fuqing had overheard.
She didn’t believe Si Fuqing would dare speak out.
Si Fuqing entered and closed the door. “Teacher Lu, are you alright?”
“I’m fine,” Lu Ningsheng actually chuckled. “That’s how the entertainnt industry works – simple and driven only by interests. I’m no longer of value, so I’m discarded.”
It was common for stars to be used as scapegoats for each other.
Now, it was her turn.
“She thinks I don’t know she’s behind my vocal cord damage,” Lu Ningsheng said bitterly. “Pretending to be sisters, and now showing her true colors.”
“Let’s not talk about this,” she shook her head sincerely. “Qingqing, thank you. The tea you sent really helped my throat. I ca to this show because of you.”
But sadly, she still couldn’t sing.
“Teacher Lu,” Si Fuqing spoke slowly. “I’d like to invite you to sing the 9th anniversary the song for ‘Oracle..’ Would you be willing?”
