The Queen's Rumored Father

Another day later, Mango's official Weibo account revealed the silhouette of Lushan Mountain.

This time, after the first two rounds of bombardment, netizens have shown some improvement in their behavior and maintained a degree of rationality. However, industry professionals have gone completely mad!

This is absolutely incredible!

Hunan TV has really gone too far this time!

"Am I seeing things? Is this really the lineup?" a veteran variety show planner posted online. "With this kind of lineup, they don't even need any outstanding content; just piling on celebrities will guarantee high ratings! It's terrifying; Hunan TV is truly outrageously extravagant!"

"Yeah, I thought the ones following were just some small fry, but who would have thought they'd be three top-tier singers!"

"If we take these three people individually and only talk about singing, their skill level is no worse than the three top singers mentioned earlier!"

"And the coverage is so broad, encompassing singers of all ages, from Hong Kong and Taiwan to mainland China—this talent selection is absolutely brilliant!"

"It's said that the list was handwritten by the director and Teacher He themselves; truly impressive!"

"Zhang Yu! One of the iconic singers in the Taiwanese music scene. During the years he was at the top, there were only two Zhangs and one Li in the Taiwanese music scene! The other 'Zhang' is the 'Prince of Over-the-Top' who sings love songs, while that Li is the godfather of Taiwanese music!"

"He's definitely a powerful singer! Twenty years ago, Zhang Yu would have been at least a top-tier vocalist!"

"These three people are of such high quality!"

"Zhou Bichang is one of the most popular young female singers in the mainland music scene, and a top three finisher in the Super Girl competition. With the advantage of Hunan TV, she, like Zhang Jie, is playing on home turf."

"Super Girl is still amazing. In their season, six of the top ten became second-tier or higher-level celebrities, and all four of the top four became first-tier celebrities! No talent show can break this record!"

"The last one is also amazing. She is Deng Ziqi, the latest rising star in Hong Kong last year! It is said that she is a newcomer with extremely strong creative ability. Although she is not well-known in mainland China, she is already on par with top singers in Hong Kong."

"These three top-tier singers are all incredibly talented. Without any external factors, it would be really hard to say who would win if they were to compete against the top three."

"Wow, this lineup is amazing!"

"I'm definitely watching this show! I heard it's this weekend?"

"Oh my god, I can't wait! How come it's only Monday? I can't wait!"

"Wait, there are only six people, wasn't it supposed to be seven?"

"Holy crap, there's one more to come as the grand finale?"

"Seriously? Zhang Jie or Zhang Yu, either of them could be the headliner. Are they even bigger stars than them?"

"That's not necessary. Bringing in another A-list star would be a slap in Zhang Jie's face, wouldn't it? They're all A-list, why are you the last one?"

"Based on the current formation with two kings, one 2, and three Aces, the last one should be below the first tier. Otherwise, it would offend the singers in front."

"Second-tier? Wouldn't that be a letdown? Which second-tier singer is worthy of finishing the show? Seriously, every single one of the current second-tier singers is suitable for this lineup?"

Netizens fell into deep thought.

Because there really isn't anyone suitable.

As for second-tier companies, unless they are currently riding high, they absolutely cannot support this platform.

If things go wrong at the last minute after such a great start, it will be a laughing stock in the industry. It will also negatively impact audience reach.

The last link, in some ways, is truly the most important.

In today's music scene, there are actors who are second-tier stars and are gaining popularity.

Li Yuan, Yi Yangqianxi, and even Lei Jiayin, who has just been promoted to the top tier, can all be included.

But among singers... sorry, there really aren't any! It will take another two or three years for new stars to emerge in mainland China.

What? You mean the four little divas of the music scene?

This is impossible!

First, while the four actresses have high viewership, their star power isn't that great. Having them close the show would be a laughing stock. Closing a show also implies a certain kind of main focus. No program this large-scale has ever used a rising star, actress, or actor to close it.

They can add the finishing touches, but they cannot bear this burden.

Their talent and industry recognition do not support them doing this.

Secondly, all four of them transitioned to the film and television industry at the same time, and none of them returned to the music scene beforehand, which is a sign of failure.

Yang Ying's chances were slim, and she was the first to be eliminated.

The other two are impossible, one hasn't finished filming yet and the other is preparing to start a new film.

Only Meng Xiaoxuan had time.

However, Meng Xiaoxuan's Chang'an was a huge hit at that time, which was also a period of rapid advancement. She could have starred in a leading female role in a TV series or entered the film industry with the resources of Qianda, playing a supporting role.

This is the right way!

Choosing to be a singer might not be accepted by the audience and the industry, and it would actually be a step down for her as well. Meng Xiaoxuan had no need for this.

Unless she is absolutely certain that the singer will become a huge hit, it would be a waste of her efforts.

But who can guarantee that a show will become a huge hit?

A phenomenal variety show isn't something that can be achieved simply by piling up celebrities.

So, no one really guessed who this person was for the time being.

"The last one, who is she!"

This post from Mango's official Weibo account trended on Weibo for an entire day.

The photos were released at 9 p.m., causing an uproar across the internet.

Within those two minutes, the V-Blog server crashed, and it took a full two minutes for normal access to be restored. However, the forwarding function was temporarily suspended and was not restored until half an hour later.

As a result, V-Blog issued its first official apology.

The announcement reads: We sincerely apologize for the impact on the user experience of Weibo users due to our insufficient preparation. We promise to strengthen the construction and maintenance of our hardware. Additionally, we would like to express our special apologies to Ms. Meng Xiaoxuan. According to our backend statistics, during the half-hour server outage, the number of failed reposts, likes, and comments on her Mango Official Weibo post totaled 12,678,426.

V-Blog's official apology announcement has spread across the entire internet.

This is essentially a complete failure across all platforms.

Everyone knows that Hunan TV has a show called "Singer".

Everyone knows that the last contestant announced by the show is the currently invincible national pop diva, Meng Xiaoxuan!

Yang Ying silently turned off her phone.

She fought for that spot for a long time, even sacrificing Gu Fang for it. But now, she has lost miserably!

Similarly, many of those competing for this spot sighed helplessly when they learned that Meng Xiaoxuan had won in the end.

The tide has turned; Meng Xiaoxuan is the one in power right now!

But in a villa, a woman sneered and muttered, "You stole my 'Flying Fairy from Heaven' from the Spring Festival Gala. If Liu Yamin hadn't been so unreliable, you would have... It's good this way. Without your competition, I can immediately take on another leading role after this drama is over. When the two dramas air together with my work from last year, I'll dominate the screen, and you'll all be squeezed out of the film and television industry!"

"As for this singing competition, haha, unless it becomes a phenomenon, what makes you think you can compete with me!"

"Human TV hasn't been able to produce a phenomenal variety show for a long time, you silly woman!"

In front of the woman were several posters, all photoshopped group photos of the "Four Little Heavenly Queens." However, in these pictures, the faces of the other three, including Yang Ying, were crossed out!
