Chapter 278 - 278: Everyone Has Gone Crazy, Wicked Si Fuqing (2)
She was sitting there.
“So, Little Deer came to ask me and Upon Brocade to boost morale for your students?” Serene Delight frowned slightly, her words tinged with confusion.
“Aren’t the guest supporters usually arranged by the program team?”
She had never really paid attention to “Youth With You,” this talent show.
The first time she even heard of it was because of Si Fuqing’s makeup removal, which had piqued her curiosity from a trending search, leading her to discover the nickname ‘Great Xia’s Divine Beauty.’ But she hadn’t watched a single episode.
Upon Brocade expressed his surprise as well, “A public performance? That indeed is a grand stage.”
“Mhmm, they invited someone=,” Si Fuqing said, taking a sip of her coke.
“They asked Ming Wenxian, though I’m not sure if you’ve heard of her.”
Though Deity Voice had provided soundtracks for many dramas, their main focus remained in the realm of animation, somewhat detached from the entertainment industry.
Even top celebrities were distant to some people, let alone Ming Wenxian, who was still a long way off.
Mighty Dark was shocked, “What?! Ming Wenxian? How is it her?!”
“I’ve heard of her, even met her once,” the director said calmly, his voice losing its earlier edge. “I ran into her at an event. She was interested in Upon Brocade at the time.”
Si Fuqing’s smile slowly faded, ‘What happened?”
Upon Brocade’s blush subsided, and after glancing at Serene Delight, he shook his head slightly, “I’m fine. The Great Xia branch of ‘Oracle’ is very secure. They had security personnel escort me to the airport. She didn’t succeed.”
“That’s because you’re too handsome, ” Mighty Dark slapped his thigh in jest.
“She wouldn’t look twice at me.”
Si Fuqing’s expression turned complex, “…Your self-awareness doesn’t need to be applied in this context.”
“What about Ming Wenxian, now that you’ve asked me and Upon Brocade?” Serene Delight asked worriedly. “She has a powerful backer in the industry, quite domineering. Several young actors have been verbally and physically abused by her.”
“What can she do? Suppress me?” Si Fuqing laughed lazily. “I’d actually welcome that; it could be quite entertaining.”
“If that’s what you say, then I’ll help you out. But I want Xie Yu’s autograph, ”
Serene Delight held up a finger, “and a photo with him.”
Si Fuqing readily agreed to sell out Xie Yu, “No problem.”
“I’ve recently taken on a new project,” Serene Delight sighed in relief. “I’m looking for a male voice. Upon Brocade’s voice is too cold, not quite suitable, but I’m glad you’re here.”
Their ‘Little Deer’ was versatile, able to adapt to both male and female roles.
“Okay,” Si Fuqing agreed readily. “Send me your project details when you’re ready. ”
The Director then said, “Little Deer, your return to the scene is bound to create a stir.”
“So I ask you all not to reveal my true identity,” Si Fuqing leaned back in her chair. “I’m too busy; I can hardly keep up with my work.”
Voice actors often worked behind the scenes, rarely showing their faces.
“Enough of work talk; it’s rare for us to meet,” Mighty Dark called out. “Let’s drink.”
Si Fuqing politely declined, “I’ll stick to coke. I don’t handle alcohol well.”
“You shouldn’t drink either,” the Director placed a bottle of milk in front of her.
“You’re only eighteen, right? Drink milk.”
Si Fuqing rested her chin on her hand, smiling, “Director, do you believe I could use your voice right now to say you’re going to run and strip on the streets?”
The Director fell silent
He quietly retracted the milk and inserted a straw for himself.
Meanwhile, at the “Youth With You” training base, Ming Wenxian arrived at dance room 2.
The room was empty.
Ming Wenxian turned, her voice sounded displeased, “Where is everyone?”
“Teacher Ming, Xie Yu and the others were taken out by Teacher Si. They won’t be back until after nine tonight,” a staff member wiped sweat from his brow, trying to remain composed.
“Not here?” Ming Wenxian removed her sunglasses, her lips curling in annoyance. “The performance is the day after tomorrow; we only have two days left. And he’s taking them out for training? What kind of teacher is this
Mr. Si?”
“Teacher Si has her own training methods,” the staff member stood his ground.
“She managed to train a student who had no debut potential to fourth place.”
“Fine, I understand,” Ming Wenxian scoffed. “If they’re not coming back today, I’ll return tomorrow.”
She left with her assistant, heading back to the hotel.
With a snap, she flung her sunglasses onto the table, her laughter cold, “This Si Fuqing, showing me attitude here. What’s this about taking them out for training? It’s clearly because she knew I was coming.”
A small idol daring to cross paths with her, Ming Wenxian mused with a mix of amusement and disdain. She couldn’t help but think how naiVe and overconfident they were.
“Steady, Sister Ming,” her assistant chimed in, eager to flatter. “There’s no rush. After all, we’re talking about a mere trainee who hasn’t even debuted. You’ve played with top-tier actors, Sister Ming. Xie Yu should be no challenge for you.”
Ming Wenxian in a contempt voice, her confidence unshaken. “I know this Si Fuqing. She’s one to handle things personally, winning over fans with her charm. But why didn’t she take the initiative this time?
“Sister Ming, could she even compete? She’s up against the National First Love, Bie Yunxi,” the assistant said mockingly. “Bie Yunxi is the dream girl for many straight males. The investors probably brought her in to draw more popularity, especially from men who seldom watch talent shows.”
“Of course,” Ming Wenxian replied, twirling her hair nonchalantly. “Bie Yunxi and I share different styles. There’s no need for direct confrontation.”
The assistant laughed. “But ultimately, they’re more into gaming and anime. If we’re talking about their real goddess, it’s Serene Delight.”
“Deity Voice?” Ming Wenxian’s smile faded. “A bunch of voice actors, too ignorant for their own good.”
Backed by a powerful sponsor, she carried herself with arrogance in the entertainment industry.
With many resources at her disposal, some young stars sought her favor for career opportunities.
Yet, her first misstep was with Upon Brocade, during a player meetup for “Oracle” in the Great Xia region, where Upon Brocade appeared as the voice actor for the assassin and bard characters.
Unfortunately, the tight security at the official “Oracle” event thwarted her plans.
Xie Yu was a rare find, perfectly fitting her aesthetic standards. She was determined not to let him slip away.
Elsewhere, at Tianle Media.
Feng Peizhi knocked and entered: “Manager Luo, as per your instructions, I’ve finalized the endorsement deal with NT. It’s a one-year contract worth twenty million.”
“Of course, this twenty won’t go directly to Si Fuqing. I’ve already reported it to the company.”
“Good,” Manager Luo nodded. “What about NT? Did they say when they’ll announce the new ambassador?”
“I asked, but suddenly they became unreachable since yesterday,” Feng Peizhi found it odd. “But the contract is signed; they can’t back out.”
“And when I passed by their store yesterday, it was undergoing renovation.” It couldn’t possibly be a closure.
“Maybe they’re just busy with something,” Manager Luo speculated. “Let’s wait for NT’s official announcement. Meanwhile, leak the news to overshadow Si Fuqing.”
With the third performance of “Youth With You” approaching, this move could also undermine Si Fuqing and Xie Yu’s group while boosting Lu Yan’s popularity.
Uncooperative artists always needed to be disciplined.
Feng Peizhi went into action.
As a leading company in the entertainment industry, Tianle Media controlled thousands of marketing accounts, adept at guiding and controlling public opinion.
Hundreds of marketing accounts suddenly coordinated, and the trolls also moved into action.
[Today’s Scoop]: A certain Ms. S is set to become NT’s new ambassador in Great Xia. Let’s see how she handles her first cosmetics endorsement.
Though the post didn’t explicitly mention her name, it was accompanied by a photo of Si Fuqing.
[??? NT, has Si Fuqing lost her mind? Why would she accept an endorsement from this brand?]
[After the brand’s scandal, even Bie Yunxi terminated her contract immediately, despite potential losses. Comparing her to Si Fuqing, there’s no contest.]
[This…. Si Fuqing, you might be good at seizing opportunities, but could you at least vet the brands you endorse? Dare to represent a brand that insults the Great Nia?]
