Can not doing what one wants be called rebirth?

Chapter 395 405. Laughter and Tears

"First, it's the tenth debut contestant of Goddess 101, Xu Jie."

The host Zi Tao looked at the cards in his hand, paused for a while, and controlled the rhythm.

"Her vote count is - 832 million!"

Amid cheers and applause from the audience, Xu Jie walked to the front of the stage from among the 101 contestants.

With red eyes, she walked towards the microphone in the middle.

"Hello everyone, I am Xu Jie from Tianxing Media. Thank you to all the fans who care about me, love me and support me and vote for me."

The camera slowly moved forward and locked onto the contestant's tearful face. Her delicate makeup was smudged by tears, but it could not hide the joy on her cheeks at all.

Following the host's introduction, contestants stood out from the crowd one after another and gave their debut speeches.

"Eighth place, Sun Xin!"

"Her vote count is - 908 million!"

"."

"Oh my god! It's hard to believe that Sun Xin was also pushed to the debut position!"

"That can't be helped. Cute characters like her do attract more fans in the show, and she signed with Dianjin Media just after the show aired for a few episodes."

"Great, this is a great ending."

It’s really like what many audience members said, it’s great to be able to debut.

Except for Miao Keyan, what were the other 10 people like before they participated in "Goddess 101"?
The two were originally trainees in a girl group, but they always stood in the corners. The most popular one was another Chinese teammate, Naixiao.

Xu Jie still earns several thousand yuan a month, including food.

Sun Xin is the only amateur and attends school.

Some have also appeared in street dance and hip-hop related programs, but the attention they received was not that high.

Compared to other debut group members, Miao Keyan is the contestant who has the best life.

When they found out that they were chosen to debut by the audience, 90% of them burst into tears on the spot.

Because they know very well that from this moment on, their fate will change.

Not only Mango TV and Penguin Video made promises early on, they will also have hit songs, their own group albums, concerts, large and small group variety shows, and group and individual endorsements.

Even members with higher positions and popularity will release personal singles or appear on variety shows and TV dramas.

"Goddess 101" is the benchmark for talent shows in the new era.

Forming a group has raised their exposure and resources to more than one level.

At the end of their debut speeches, the scene where the contestants burst into tears of joy was a true reflection of their inner feelings.

Not everyone has the opportunity to change their own destiny, and even if they do, not everyone can seize it.

In fact, it is not just this ten-member group. Many contestants participating in "Goddess 101" have gained more resources and exposure during the live broadcast.

Even if they didn't make their debut, it would still be a success for them.

Moreover, "Goddess 101" also allows this group of young, dreamy and outstanding girls to have their own small circle.

It is foreseeable that after the show, many people will collaborate in different places.

"Next, please welcome the champion of the debut night of "Goddess 101" - Miao Keyan!"

As Zitao's voice was deliberately prolonged, the lights changed color and the whole audience was boiling.

Almost all the audience stood up, clapped their hands vigorously, and cheered for Miao Keyan as she walked slowly towards the microphone.

"She is the top female streamer on Douyu and a recognized dancing queen. The curly hair guide she posted on the video site has been viewed over a million times."

"She is also the spokesperson for the truth. With just three minutes of speech, she can make our entire program go viral."

"She used her impeccable personal charm and her professional skills to take a huge lead in popularity in the second half of the show."

"During the time when 'Goddess 101' was released, she received more than 2000 million votes from the entire network!"

"Let us welcome the new TOP1 and give her championship speech!"

Completely different background music sounded, and the 101 contestants automatically made way for a path that led to the sky. The path was filled with flower petals, and a smiling Miao Keyan walked by.

Miaomiao is tall, and today her makeup artist specially selected a pair of 8-cm high heels for her, making her look very charismatic.

Just these few steps gave off a sense of high spirits and arrogance.

confidence.

Although she hadn't spoken a word at this moment, she was looking straight at the camera. Her elegant makeup with no blind spots and her eight teeth that were so white that they glowed, every detail revealed the confidence of a champion.

"Hello everyone, I am Miao Keyan."

She held the microphone tightly, raised her right hand in the air and waved to the audience.

"First of all, thank you to all my friends who have been silently protecting me. Without your votes, I would not be standing here."

She let go of the microphone, took a step back, lowered her head, took a deep breath, pressed her chest, and bowed deeply.

"The experience of "Goddess 101" is like the fairy tale book I read when I was a child. In the distant goddess castle, the princesses live together. The winter here is very cold, the spring is very busy, the day is very short, and the night is very long."

Unlike other contestants who expressed their gratitude with tears in their eyes, Miao Keyan smiled most of the time.

Her smile is as bright as the sun and her eyebrows are curved.

she continued.

"Secondly, I would like to thank the sisters who participated in the show together."

"In fact, I like you all so much. I really want to stay with you a little longer, a little longer."

“Although all good things must come to an end, I hope everyone will make a promise that no matter where in the world you are scattered, don’t look back, bravely move forward, and bravely fly with the wind.”

"Whenever you feel like backing off, think about yourself when you were participating in Goddess 101, and the cameras and fill lights that were always around you."

"It is like the human spirit, which will never be extinguished."

"I have grown up a lot here. Although growing up is hard, I am still grateful that I can come here."

"Coming to this place where countless girls yearn for."

"Until now, I actually have a very strange feeling. Every contestant is a sister who fights side by side with me day and night, but in the popularity finals, they become my rivals."

“It feels like competition is a cruel romance.”

"I will always keep this romance in my heart."

“Many, many years later, perhaps it will still give me great strength.”

“Thank you for letting me know that everyone is unique and the darker the sky, the brighter the stars.”

"Finally, I would like to thank the company for giving me such a valuable opportunity."

Having said this, Miao Keyan paused at just the right moment, as if he had telepathy.

The line of sight from the bottom to the top of the VIP seats in the front row of area B collided with the line of sight of the champion on the stage.

Their eyes met, and nothing was said.

After a few seconds, the cameraman seemed to sense the information in his sight, and suddenly turned the camera to project the screen onto the live audience seats.

It was projected onto the front seat facing Miao Keyan, focusing on a man's angular face.

"Thank you all again, thank you."

The girl smiled and interrupted it all at the right time.

"Ningbao! I think I saw your boyfriend!"

Donghu Tianyue, Villa 03-A.

This weekend, Zhou Si Ning also finished moving and invited her roommates to her home.

Girls' gatherings are nothing more than eating, drinking, watching plays and singing karaoke.

Finally, it was back to this time in the evening. The sisters in dormitory 601 turned on the TV like most young people.

Eating snacks and fruits, curling up on the sofa with legs crossed, watching the last episode of "Goddess 101". During the break of Miao Keyan's speech, Song Wan suddenly saw a familiar face.

She rubbed her eyes, thinking she had seen it wrong, and subconsciously turned her hair to ask.

"is it him?"

"Ah."

Zhou Si Ning crossed her arms in front of her chest, crossed her legs and held the stuffed doll between her legs, and said unhappily.

"So strange. The person next to him looked familiar, but the camera was shaking too fast and I couldn't see clearly."

"He had already informed me that he and his research team were on a business trip to Xingcheng to attend the law forum. He just stopped by to see the scene."

"It's all here."

The brown-haired girl put one hand around her hair and pretended not to hear what Song Wan had muttered.

The question about the familiar-looking girl next to Lu Jincheng.

How can you not look familiar, sister?

That was my best friend who was inseparable from me last semester!
"No wonder."

Song Wan smiled and took her roommate's arm, speaking casually.

"So you're on a business trip, otherwise I'd still be curious. How could you go to Star City to watch the debut night without you?"

Unintentional words hurt the most.

Zhou Si Ning was stunned for a few seconds before she snorted through her nose, leaned over, and poked the toothpick into the mango flesh.

"right."

"Even if he offered to take me there during work, I wouldn't be so ignorant."

She thought about it, then pursed her lips and added another sentence.

"He went to the Mango TV show with the entire research team."

"Is it so amazing? I heard that the offline review is very strict. I have a classmate studying in Xingcheng, and he queues up every week but still can't get a chance."

Jiang Fengting, who was also invited, blinked and raised her voice slightly.

She was actually no longer surprised by her roommate's powerful boyfriend.

The amount of shock in my heart tonight had already been completely used up in this large villa of several hundred square meters.

On the first day of school, I heard that Zhou Sining's boyfriend gave her a house.

Although the three words "give a house" are exaggerated, they are far less incredible than being there in person.

So big.
So luxurious
This living world is completely beyond Jiang Fengting's current understanding.

"After all, he has a good relationship with the organizer, so it's no problem for him to bring a few more."

Zhou Si Ning rolled up a corner of her sleeve, curled her lips, and moved her gaze back to the glowing TV screen.

Of course, Zhou Sining was not the only one who was curious about this question.

The same question is happening in the female dormitory 203 of the School of Management at Nanhu University.

"Oh my god, isn't this Lu Jincheng?"

"Did he go to Mango TV to support Miao Keyan offline?"

"Rui Rui, I'm definitely on your side. It's fine if I don't try to coax you, but he's just taking advantage of me!"

Compared to Room 601 of the University of Finance and Economics, Zhong Ruixi's roommates are much more familiar with Mr. Lu's face.

What's more, the cameraman is a master carefully selected by Mango TV, and he wants to make every pore on the man's face visible in detail.

As one of the few people who knew the whole process of the Miao Keyan incident, even veteran fan Xu Ya was somewhat shaken in her stance and frequently spoke on Zhong Ruixi's side.

From a female perspective, out of empathy, Lu Jincheng's way of handling the matter was really excessive.

During this period of time, he clearly knew that Zhong Ruixi was angry.

But he was still putting on airs and was unwilling to be coaxed.

Girlfriends are meant to be coaxed!

What was totally unexpected was that Lu Jincheng not only did not coax, he also went straight to Xingcheng on the much-anticipated debut night.

What does he mean by this?!

Directly support Miao Keyan?

Ni Jiayun and Qiu Xue decisively formed a united front and were filled with righteous indignation.

Xu Ya, who used to say good things about Lu Jincheng every now and then, couldn't say it this time.

However, compared to the dazzling and radiant Miao Keyan standing on the stage, Guan Yongyi, who was sitting next to Lu Jincheng in the camera, flashed by.

That's not the point to worry about.

"."

Zhong Ruixi bit her lip, said nothing, and just watched the show silently.

In the picture, the host Zitao took over the scene again, straightened his back, looked at the card in his hand and said.

"Now, please invite tonight's award presenter to come on stage and present awards to the ten debut contestants!"

The award presenters invited by "Goddess 101" are either sponsors or the bosses of the companies that the debut contestants are signed to.

In order to make this group of people feel involved, the program team deliberately set up a heartwarming segment.

"He's on stage. Damn, it turns out that Lu Jincheng is the award presenter!"

In dormitory 203, the voices that shared the same hatred and contempt for Lu Jincheng disappeared in an instant.

"Who did he give the award to?"

"It must be Miao Keyan, there's no need to think about it."

“That’s reasonable.”

"We may have scolded him too early. After all, he is the boss of Dianjin Media. It is reasonable for him to come forward now that Miao Keyan has won the championship."

Ni Jiayun's voice was a little hoarse. The lid of the water cup in front of her kept opening and closing, and she stared straight at everything in front of her.

"I have to say, the senior sister actually has a great sense of Taiwan, she was always smiling, and she has great control over her emotions. Maybe she will really become a big star in the future."

Seeing that her previous speculation was overturned, Xu Ya couldn't help but whispered.

But the next second, changes occurred suddenly.

On the screen, Lu Jincheng went backstage, changed into a formal suit, and reappeared in front of the contestants.

He held the goddess crown belonging to the champion in both hands, stood in front of Miao Keyan with a smile, raised his hands gently, and stood on tiptoe.

"What's going on? What did he say?"

"I don't know. Oh my god, why is Miao Keyan crying suddenly?"

"No, stupid Mango TV, why aren't you muting your microphone at this time!"

Everyone widened their eyes and moved closer to the screen.

The man first put a crown on the brightest star of the night, and then, like the other guests, he shook hands and nodded in blessing.

However, compared to others, the boss of Dianjin Media made an extra small move during the communication with the champion.

He leaned close to Mu Keyan's ear, and the camera could only clearly see his lips moving as he said something inaudible.

These words seem to have magical power.

Miao Keyan, who had remained calm throughout the night, was still smiling.

As I laughed, tears began to fall.
