a few days later.

Inside the top-of-the-line recording studio at Saltyfish Entertainment's headquarters.

The subwoofer vibrated so loudly that the floor trembled slightly.

Liu Qianqian was wearing large monitoring headphones.

She gripped the microphone stand tightly with both hands.

Her usually cool and aloof eyes, now glistening with sweat, burned with a wild flame.

"More and more people are losing their souls—"

"How can we turn a deaf ear—"

"Look, chaos erupts everywhere, and verbal battles rage across the land—"

"It's impossible to defend on all sides; it's riddled with wounds—"

......

The high notes hit the bullseye.

It carries a strong sense of tearing and penetrating power.

This completely overturned Liu Qianqian's previous image as an ethereal, otherworldly fairy.

Yu Le leaned against the sofa by the door.

He was holding a thermos.

He looked at the girl inside the glass room, who was sweating profusely but singing with increasing enthusiasm.

This girl's potential far exceeded his expectations.

The song ended.

Liu Qianqian took off her headphones.

She pushed open the glass door and came out.

She was panting heavily when she grabbed a bottle of mineral water from the table and poured half of it down.

"Dad, this song is too hard on your voice."

"But it was really enjoyable to sing."

Yu Le handed him a tissue.

"As long as it's enjoyable."

"This is just the appetizer."

"I went to the dance studio this afternoon, and the choreographer was already there waiting for me."

...

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

A spacious and bright dance studio.

The intensely rhythmic electronic drumbeats echoed throughout the room.

Liu Qianqian changed into a black tight-fitting sportswear outfit.

His fair skin and defined abs were clearly visible.

The choreographer's voice came through.

"Sissi, use more strength in your waist!"

"Eyes!"

"You need to have a fierce look in your eyes!"

"You are a queen on the battlefield, not a beauty pageant contestant!"

Liu Qianqian gritted her teeth.

She repeated those explosive dance moves over and over again.

Sweat streamed down her cheeks.

It dripped onto the wooden floor.

Four consecutive hours of high-intensity training.

Her legs were trembling involuntarily.

The door to the dance studio was suddenly pushed open.

Yu Le led Dongdong in.

Dongdong was holding an ice cream, and her mouth was covered in white cream.

He saw his sister twisting and turning in front of the huge floor-length mirror, and his big eyes immediately lit up.

The little guy broke free from Yu Le's hand.

He ran to the mirror with his short legs.

He imitated Liu Qianqian, clumsily wiggling his chubby little bottom.

He was also diligently dubbing the audio.

"Hey!"

"ha!"

Liu Qianqian's tense nerves snapped instantly.

She stumbled.

He fell directly onto the floor.

"Yu Muchen!"

"Are you deliberately trying to cause trouble?!"

Dongdong was so startled that her little hand trembled.

I almost dropped the ice cream in my hand.

He quickly stepped aside and hid behind Yu Le.

He poked half of his hairy head out.

"Dad, my sister is fierce."

Yu Le walked over and handed Liu Qianqian a bottle of electrolyte water with the cap unscrewed.

"Take a break."

"Balance work and rest."

Liu Qianqian took the water and glared at Dongdong with annoyance.

"I call this queenly style, what do you know, you little brat?"

.....

Beijing in January.

It's so cold that your breath will condense into white mist.

Liu Qianqian has completely switched to a non-stop work mode.

During the day, they sweat profusely in the dance studio of Salty Fish Entertainment.

That evening, I had to rush to the CCTV studio for the Spring Festival Gala rehearsal.

One second they were in the dance studio wearing a tactical vest, holding a prop gun, and dancing a hot dance with a cool look in their eyes.

The next second she will change into an extremely gorgeous floor-length gown and stand on the grand stage of CCTV to sing "As You Wish" with poise and elegance.

In the private dressing room backstage at CCTV.

Liu Qianqian slumped in her chair.

She let the makeup artist apply makeup to her face.

She didn't even have the strength to open her eyes.

Yu Le walked in carrying a stainless steel insulated bucket.

He placed the thermos on the dressing table.

Unscrew the cap.

The rich aroma of chicken soup instantly filled the entire room.

"Have a drink."

Yu Le scooped out a small bowl and held it to her lips.

Liu Qianqian barely opened her eyes.

She took a big gulp from Yu Le's hand.

The warm chicken soup flowed down my throat and into my stomach.

It dispelled much of the chill that had seeped into my bones.

"Dad, I feel like I'm about to have a mental breakdown."

"When I was singing 'As You Wish' on stage just now, all I could think about was Fireinthehole."

"I almost blurted it out."

Yu Le was amused by her words.

"If you actually dare to shout that line on the Spring Festival Gala stage, Director Zhang would probably have a brain hemorrhage on the spot."

"Hang in there for a few more days."

"Once the promotional video is filmed and the Spring Festival Gala is over, you can stay home and lie in bed for half a month."

Liu Qianqian immediately perked up.

She sat up abruptly.

"Keep your word!"

"It has to count."

.........

The promotional video was filmed at a desolate, abandoned chemical plant.

The production team painstakingly built a realistic game map scene.

Black tactical vest, camouflage cargo pants, high-top military boots.

Liu Qianqian's long hair was tied up high.

Her neat ponytail swayed behind her head.

She was holding a life-size replica of an M4A1 assault rifle.

Several black greasepaints were deliberately applied to his cheeks.

As soon as the director gave the order through a megaphone.

The explosion points exploded one after another.

Flames shot into the sky.

Liu Qianqian moved through the acrid smoke of gunpowder.

His eyes were cold and sharp.

She turned around abruptly.

The gun barrel was pointed directly at the camera.

Then, an extremely wild and passionate dance unfolded amidst the ruins.

The wild music blended perfectly with the intense gunfire.

Late January.

0 points in the early hours.

Internet cafes across the country remain bustling with activity, a mingled mix of strong smells of cigarettes and instant noodles, and the incessant clatter of keyboards.

CrossFire underwent a non-downtime update.

"A major new year update is now live!"

Players clicked on the update while grumbling.

The progress bar has finished.

Re-enter the game.

The login screen has completely changed.

It's no longer the monotonous mercenary background of the past.

An extremely stunning CG promotional video was forcibly played.

The deep bass intro instantly pierced through the cheap headphones in the internet cafe.

on the screen.

Sparks flew in the abandoned chemical plant.

Liu Qianqian's highly recognizable face appeared in the close-up shot.

It lacks any ethereal quality.

Only coldness and wildness.

She carried a gun and calmly moved through the hail of bullets.

Then, the scene changes.

The powerful drumbeats slammed down.

Liu Qianqian, accompanied by several backup dancers dressed in the same tactical uniforms, performed that extremely energetic dance amidst the ruins.

The singing started simultaneously.

"More and more people are losing their souls—"

"How can we turn a deaf ear—"

"Look, chaos erupts everywhere, and verbal battles rage across the land—"

"It's impossible to defend on all sides; it's riddled with wounds—"

The internet addicts who were shouting and yelling just a second ago are now all staring intently at the screen, not even noticing that the cigarettes they were smoking have fallen onto the keyboard and burned a hole in them.

Is this some kind of fairy goddess?!

That figure!

That look in his eyes!

This typhoon!

So cool!

End of promotional video.

Liu Qianqian knelt on one knee.

She slung the rifle over her shoulder.

Several large, gold-plated characters appeared on the screen.

"The brand-new female character, 'Spirit Fox - Liu Yifei,' has made a stunning debut!"

After a brief silence.

The entire internet cafe was in complete chaos.

"Holy crap—!!"

"Liu Yifei! Liu Yifei is the spokesperson for CF!!"

"Oh my god! This female character is so cool! I have to buy her! I'll buy her no matter the price!"

"What's the name of this song? It's so energetic! It gave me goosebumps all over!"

"What are you waiting for! Log in now! I'm going to use the fairy sister to dominate the battlefield!"

"Internet cafe manager! Internet cafe manager! Top up your account! Top up 500 for me first!"

Countless people flocked to the game's in-game store.

Tonight, the future 300 million mice have a new queen.
