No matter how ordinary a person is, they have their own dreams.
Anxin's dream was to stand on a dazzling stage and sing for thousands of audiences.
Ever since she embarked on the path of being a singer, this dream had always been in her heart. Sometimes it would surface, perhaps buried deep, but it had never really been extinguished.
It was just that the ruthless reality had always been the crusher of dreams. Anxin was very ordinary. Her path as a singer staggered in the dark, unable to see any light ahead.
Anxin liked and admired Lu Chen because Lu Chen used to be like her, a bar singer at the bottom of the society, but with his own efforts and talent, he stood out and eventually became a big star in the limelight.
She hoped that one day she could be like Lu Chen, but she also knew very well that she did not have Lu Chen's talent.
Nor did she have Lu Chen's looks.
However, when she heard from her best friend that Lu Chen would be a judge for The Voice of China, the dream hidden deep in her heart suddenly surged, giving Anxin an indescribable desire.
She should give it a try. What's the harm in giving it a try? Maybe this show would be different from others, maybe …
Maybe she could see Lu Chen in person!
She bit her lip and carefully browsed the content of the webpage that had just been opened on her phone. It was the promotional advertisement for The Voice of China.
The Voice of China was co-produced by Zhedong Satellite TV and Star Factory Media. The national audition was held from May 4-12. The audition locations included Beijing, Huhai, Hangzhou, Shacheng, and Shenhai. There was no division. The singers who passed the audition would participate in the official mentor audition in Hangzhou on May 15.
Star Factory Media announced on its official website and Weibo that the four celebrity mentors of "The Voice of China" were confirmed to be Lu Chen and Chen Fei 'er, while two other heavyweight mystery guests would be announced in the near future.
Domestic variety show audiences were already used to this kind of method of whetting their appetite, but just the participation of Lu Chen and Chen Fei 'er gave The Voice of China a very high starting point.
At present, in the domestic pop music industry, this perfect couple was so popular that few big stars could compare with them. Last year, both of their new albums achieved great success, and Chen Fei'er's position as the Queen of Music was unshakable.
Not only did they have a singing career, but they also expanded in the film and television industry. Their blog fans added up to more than 100 million, and they were in the limelight in the entertainment industry.
Most importantly, Lu Chen had a good reputation in the industry as the "Golden Touch". If he wanted to support someone, he could easily do so. There were already many examples to prove this.
Just this mentor alone was enough to tempt countless singers.
Anxin was no exception.
"What are you thinking about? Hurry up and sign up."
Her best friend urged, "It would be a pity to miss this opportunity!"
Anxin held her phone and nodded. She opened the registration bar with a trembling finger and filled in her registration information on the new page. Finally, she clicked confirm.
China's Voice's preliminary audition supported both phone and online registration. Once the registration was successful, the officials would assign a contestant number and the time for the audition. So all An Xin had to do now was wait.
"You can definitely do it!"
Her best friend encouraged, "I believe that Lu Chen is not the kind of person to judge a book by its cover. He will definitely like your singing."
Anxin's eyes teared up, and she suddenly hugged her. "Xiao Wen, thank you!"
She did not have many friends in this unfamiliar big city, and Xiao Wen was her best friend. When she was at her lowest point, Xiao Wen took her in and gave her a place to stay.
Although it was small, it was warm.
Xiao Wen was stunned for a moment, then hugged her back and said, "What are you thanking me for? We're from the same hometown. I just hope that you can become famous, so I can bask in your glory. How about being your assistant?"
As she spoke, she began to laugh.
"What assistant? I'll at least be your manager!"
Anxin laughed as well. She wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and said, "If I become famous, I'll pay for your brother's wedding and wife!"
Anxin and Xiao Wen were from the same place, but An Xin lived in a county city, while Xiao Wen lived in a village.
Xiao Wen was also the eldest in the family, and had started working at a young age. According to her, she came out to earn money for her brother's wedding — with the customs of her hometown, it was impossible to get a wife without several hundred thousand.
Both of them were in the same boat, and so they became good friends.
Xiao Wen smiled and said, "Then it's a deal!"
She made it sound as if An Xin was really going to become famous soon. In fact, both of them knew very well that without a good background and outstanding looks, the chances of An Xin becoming a celebrity were really too low.
Unless a miracle happened.
However, if a person did not have a dream, what difference was there between them and a salted fish?
That was the dream of two ordinary girls.
Beep beep ~
Right then, Xiao Wen's phone suddenly rang. She looked at it and was surprised, "Eh, there's a message."
There really was a message. It was an official reply from China's Voice. Anxin had passed the registration and received her contestant number, as well as the time and venue for the audition.
Although she knew that online registration was a simple matter, such a quick and efficient reply still surprised An Xin. She could not help but look forward to China's Voice even more.
"Tomorrow at 2pm at Victory Stadium!"
An Xin could not help but hold Xiao Wen's hand, "Xiao Wen …"
Xiao Wen understood what she meant and thought for a moment before saying, "I'll change shifts with my colleagues tomorrow and accompany you there."
An Xin was extremely grateful, "Thank you."
An Xin had participated in several talent shows in the past, and she had always gone alone. Logically speaking, there was no need to trouble others this time, but she did not know why, but she felt very nervous.
Perhaps her fate would change because of this.
Xiao Wen rolled her eyes at her, "What are you thanking me for? I'm your manager!"
Both of them laughed, and An Xin could not help but relax.
…
The next afternoon, Xiao Wen accompanied An Xin on the subway to Shanghai's Victory Stadium.
To their surprise, the registration area was already packed with people. There were countless singers participating in the audition, and it was a lively scene everywhere. Many of them were carrying or carrying guitars.
Not far away, a huge poster of China's Voice was hung on the outer wall of the stadium. A large hand holding a microphone was raised high, giving off a strong visual impact.
An Xin stood in the bustling crowd, her dream was about to become a reality.
At that moment, she had no idea what the future held.
