“I didn’t expect that Fang Mo’er would have such talent in acting!” Shen Yue murmured, “It seems that she can be trained in all aspects!”
Initially, she had only wanted her to focus on becoming a singer, but it was different now. Perhaps she could develop in different fields at the same time.
…
Creative Entertainment held a shareholders’ meeting.
As one of the major shareholders, Fang Mo’er had also been called to attend.
Her appearance caused a commotion in the whole company.
Many of the colleagues who had previously badmouthed her, saw her striding in. Although they did not show it on the surface, they were screaming on the inside.
Hence, every department in the company was discussing this matter.
“Look, Fang Mo’er is here. She’s walking over with such confidence!”
“Do you think she will cause any trouble during the meeting?”
“The company has been trying to support Bai Rong recently. What do you think her expression will be like when she hears that during the meeting?”
“It’s over, I feel like the higher-ups are going to fight!”
“It’s alright. After all, Mu Chen is still the biggest shareholder and has the highest say. Fang Mo’er is just here as support.”
Bai Rong’s new song, “Flame”, had just been released recently and had already achieved good results.
The competition chart for January had been specially set up for veteran singers.
The King and Queen of Songs would usually choose to release a song at this time, depending on which singer had a bigger fan base support.
Generally speaking, new singers would choose to remain silent during this month.
However, Bai Rong was very brave. The company had just recruited a gold-medal songwriter, Bai Liang, who seemed to have come specifically for Bai Rong. As soon as he had entered, he had forcefully created a song that was very likely to be popular. Furthermore, the company had spent a large amount of resources to promote it.
Now, the song “Flame” had already entered the Top Ten of the New Talent Rankings chart!
It was well-known that the Top Ten was filled with some of the best singers, so the battle was fierce. Bai Rong had been able to enter the Top Ten under such circumstances. This was something that she had never dared to imagine in the past.
Therefore, when Fang Mo’er entered the meeting room, she noticed that Bai Rong was sitting beside Mu Chen in high spirits.
Fang Mo’er picked an empty seat and sat down.
Her appearance had caused the shareholders to fall silent.
“Isn’t this a shareholders’ meeting? How can someone who isn’t a shareholder sit here?” Fang Mo’er tilted her head and looked in Bai Rong’s direction.
The shareholders stared at her with bated breath. This was what they had been anticipating. They were really going to tear each other apart. They had known it would be like this, they had just known it.
As expected, the scene of two women fighting over a man was about to be played out in the meeting room!
Bai Rong, who had been called out, turned pale. “I’m also an artiste of the company. Why can’t I participate?”
“Oh, oh, in that case, what contributions have you made to the company? If you can participate, then does that mean all the other artistes can participate as well? I remember that since your debut, you’ve spent quite a lot of the company’s money, haven’t you?”
So, what right did Bai Rong have to sit here? Was it just because she had spent money?
Bai Rong was so angry that she stood up immediately.
Mu Chen reached out to pull her back and said to her, “Don’t you have a new song promotion meeting to attend? Go and do your work first.”
Fang Mo’er was right, Bai Rong did not have the right to sit here.
Thus, Mu Chen had no choice but to let her leave first.
Bai Rong glared at Fang Mo’er, but she could do nothing except stand up and leave.
The meeting room fell silent again.
Mu Chen looked at Fang Mo’er coldly before saying, “Let’s begin!
“The topic for today’s meeting is about the company’s efforts to support Bai Rong. Everyone knows that Bai Rong’s songs have already entered the Top Ten of the competition chart. Those who are capable of entering this chart are usually considered as one of the best singers!
“Also, the company will also be allowing her to participate in film and television performances in the future, making her an all-rounded artiste! Recently, Bai Rong was invited to participate in the audition for the female lead role for the movie ‘Love Mist’!”
All the signs seemed to point towards Bai Rong becoming popular and bringing the company good profits.
Initially, the shareholders had not been satisfied that Mu Chen had always given resources to Bai Rong alone.
But now that they were about to make a huge profit, all of them expressed their support.
“I know about ‘Love Mist’. It is currently touted as the most promising movie because there are too many fans of the original TV series. As long as it is aired, there will be a lot of traffic. I heard that the very popular Lang Qi was also invited to be the male lead! That means that if Bai Rong is able to be chosen as the female lead, her future will then be limitless!”
Fang Mo’er listened to these analyses and wondered to herself if that meant that her own future really was limitless. If she remembered correctly, her own song had just entered the top five of the contending leaderboards and was still rising steadily.
Moreover, it was still uncertain whether Bai Rong would become the female lead. It was not appropriate to brag about it now. After all, she was also among the candidates for the female lead role in the audition.
However, at the moment, all everyone knew was that Bai Rong had a high chance of winning the female lead role. They did not know that the director had already informed Fang Mo’er that she was to be added to the list.
She wondered what the expressions of the people who were present would be like when they heard that Fang Mo’er was also in the running for the female lead role.
It should also be very exciting.
A big drama was about to start.
Fang Mo’er suddenly spoke up, “I object!”
