"Of course." These were the last words Tangning said to Luo Sheng that night. Afterwards, Mo Ting forcefully escorted her back to Hyatt Regency.
Tomorrow was the day of Xing Lan's competition. As the boss behind the scenes, Tangning decided to make a high-profile appearance.
The competition after the top 100 would have a new competition format. The contestants would all be wearing the same costume.
The competition this time was still a group of five people, and the scores would be ranked from high to low. The top three would advance directly, while the bottom two would be eliminated or remain to be determined.
The remaining four spots were left to prevent a tie in the group or to prevent the judges from hesitating. In short, there would be a second round of elimination in the undetermined area.
Amongst the contestants, the strength of the contestants was relatively balanced. So far, there had not been any outstanding contestants, apart from Xing Lan.
So, everyone looked at Xing Lan with hostility, especially those that were in the same group as her.
She clearly didn't need it …
"Although I don't know why you insist on competing, if I were you, I would also want to win the championship."
"Although your agency is saying that you are talented and have the potential to become famous, you have yet to win any awards. If one day, you become outdated, this will be the reason for your agency to abandon you."
A contestant in Xing Lan's group smiled.
This surprised Xing Lan. She never expected that someone could see through her.
Looking at the man again, he was small in stature and had a pair of clear eyes. This was Xing Lan's experience as a teacher. Generally speaking, someone with such clear eyes couldn't be a bad person.
"Hello, my opponent. I look forward to your performance."
Xing Lan responded with a smile, but she was ridiculed by the others.
"I thought you were smart. Can't you tell that he's trying to get close to you?"
"However, you don't have any connections. You're just from a small workshop …"
"Exactly …"
A small workshop!
Xing Lan couldn't help but laugh inside. If these people found out who the boss of this small workshop was, they would go crazy.
"I heard that there will be a special guest in the audience tonight."
"Do you know who it is?"
"I don't know, I just passed by the director's break room and accidentally heard it."
"Even if it's a big shot, it has nothing to do with us."
Xing Lan heard the discussions around her, but her expression remained indifferent. She didn't care because Tangning hadn't told anyone that she would be attending. Everyone assumed she was simply a big boss from a record company that was here to scout for potential talent. But, little did they know, this person's appearance caused a huge commotion.
Why was it so sensational?
Because wherever she went, she was a legend.
Tonight, the true battle between kings was about to begin. Everyone was about to reveal their true strength. It turned out, Xing Lan wasn't the only one that had been holding back. Luckily, she had listened to Tangning's advice and didn't reveal her true strength. Otherwise, she would have been buried under a pile of surprises.
The competition was about to begin.
The circle would definitely be in an uproar tonight. Because the competition had not yet begun, the audience, whether it was the judges or the jury, were all using their phones to spread a message.
"Guess who I saw?"
"Did I see Tangning on the field?"
"Why is Tangning at a place like this?"
"Is there something wrong with my eyes?"
At this time, Long Jie was sitting in Superstar Media's office. She couldn't see the entrance that was originally reserved for the competition, so she couldn't help but laugh as she received news about Tangning.
"As expected, my Ning is still my Ning. Even though she hasn't appeared for so long, the commotion she's caused can't be underestimated."
"It's time for Superstar Media to perform." After speaking, Long Jie pressed on the enter key and announced the establishment of Superstar Media.
"Oh God …"
"Did you guys see the news?"
"Oh my God."
"So, Superstar Media was founded by Tangning."
Soon, news about the competition, Xing Lan and Tangning blew up the entire entertainment industry.
It turned out, because of Xu Xin's incident, Tangning hadn't actually gone into seclusion. She had actually set up her own agency. And now, she had Luo Sheng and Xing Lan, two promising artists under her banner.
Did Tangning become a boss?
"No wonder Xing Lan's incident was handled so well. Now that we know Tangning is a boss, it's no longer strange. She has the ability."
"Damn, what can Tangning not do? A model turned into an actress and an actress is now a manager and a boss. What kind of life is she playing? "
"Has everyone forgotten that Xu Xin committed suicide because of her?"
"Xu Xin's suicide was her own choice. What has it got to do with Tangning? Haven't you figured it out yet?"
At this moment, regardless of whether it was good or bad, praising or belittling Tangning, everyone pointed to one thing: Tangning's brilliance had never been extinguished, it had simply been temporarily overshadowed.
Netizens were in a frenzy of discussion because they had never seen an artist that was more tenacious than Tangning.
It was like no one could beat her down.
"She can't even protect herself, yet she's trying to help others get ahead. I don't think she'll make it far."
"Don't forget, Luo Sheng and Xing Lan were trash that couldn't possibly make a comeback in the past. It was Tangning that gave them their current prospects."
"Rumor has it that Tangning only helps talented newcomers that have been ostracized by others. From the looks of it, Luo Sheng and Xing Lan, this is most likely true. She only helps artists that she thinks highly of!"
"Why do I suddenly have the urge to go to her agency?"
As the competition progressed, news of Tangning establishing Superstar Media began to spread throughout Beijing. She was no longer a model nor an actress. Her appearance was simply because she had become the boss behind the scenes. But, it was likely that there wouldn't be a second Xu Xin that could defeat Tangning.
After all, there was no way that Xu Xin could defeat her.
Because of Tangning's support, Xing Lan successfully advanced to the next round with her performance of 'Fireworks'.
Everyone watched as Tangning raised her thumb at Xing Lan. At this moment, Tangning had given Xing Lan the greatest honor. She had never been this confident on stage.
After the competition, many contestants expressed their envy. Some were jealous and some even wanted to sign with Tangning.
But, Tangning wasn't the type that would fall for just anyone. Superstar Media and Tangning were indeed coming with a lot of momentum.
This time, she did not take the gentle path nor did she smile at the public. Instead, her comeback was filled with aggressiveness.
At least, when it came to protecting her artists, she wasn't like an outsider that treated her. If she could forgive them, she would. But, one look at Li Can's fate and it was obvious that she would pursue the matter to the end.
…
But, there were still a lot of people in the industry that didn't have high hopes for her …
