One of the four mentors who were criticized by netizens for their lack of skill also reposted and liked San San's singing video, expressing their appreciation and adding the caption, "No wonder I turned around and chose this singer back then. She has great potential. Keep up the good work!"

The other three mentors followed closely behind.

This subtly suggests to the audience that the elimination of San San was due to insider dealings by the production team.

The show hasn't even aired yet, and it's already tainted with scandal.

Especially since this program has been sponsored and invested in by the Fu family this year, if it falls through, he's finished.

In a panic, the show's director took the assistant director's advice and invited Shen Zhi to participate in the competition as well, hoping to capitalize on the buzz for publicity.

When Shen Zhi received the call from the production team, she unexpectedly agreed.

This could be an opportunity for Fu Xin to see Ke Chen's true colors, which coincides with her plan.

but--

"Director, I'm willing to participate as a special guest, but I have one condition."

"Tell us your request, and we'll definitely grant it."

Shen Zhi's slender fingers twirled a strand of hair, her starry eyes sparkling with mischievousness.

"The entire process will be live, with no malicious editing or audio modification allowed. The first round will be re-recorded, and the advancement results will be based on this round. Those who don't sing well will be eliminated directly; there can be no backdoor selection. Director, is that alright?"

The singing competition was broadcast live in its entirety, something they had never done before.

The director wrung his hands awkwardly on the other end of the phone, and said embarrassedly:

"Teacher Zhizhi, there's something you might not know. This singer is taking a huge risk by singing live with his microphone on. If he doesn't do well, we can salvage it in post-production, or re-record two versions and choose the best one. But if it's live, it means that if he makes a mistake, everyone will see it..."

"so what?"

Shen Zhi directly interrupted the other person's stammering, mischievous thoughts, and popped a cherry into her mouth to chew:

"Isn't your show called 'Good Singer'? If you can't even do a full live performance, what kind of 'Good Singer' are you?"

"Director, I don't like faking it. If you want to invite me to participate, you should show your sincerity."

Looking at Shen Zhi, who's at the top of the trending list, she's got so much online buzz!

If you don't agree, you'll miss this opportunity!

"Okay! Live streaming is fine, but we've already recorded the first episode. If we re-record it, all the previous footage will be wasted. How about we start directly from the second episode?"

"I will cover all the costs and expenses; all I need is for the recording to be re-encoded."

Just kidding, how could she fit San San in if she didn't re-record?

Other capital firms can fill their seats, so can Shen Zhi.

It's just a matter of money, isn't it? She's never short of money.

The black cards of the eldest, second, third, fourth, and fifth brothers, Shen Linchuan's black card, and Xingxing and Yangyang's salary cards.

She can spend whichever she wants.

"Is one hundred million enough?"

The good singer and director opposite him were speechless. All the advice melted in his throat like cream and he swallowed it down.

Let alone 100 million, 50 million would be more than enough.

"That's enough, Ms. Zhizhi. We'll have someone come up with a live stream plan right now, and we'll have it with you in three days at the earliest. Is that alright?"

"Three days? Are you trying to drive working people crazy?"

Shen Zhi frowned slightly, waved her hand, and declared:

"A week is enough time, no need to rush."

The director was stunned again, not even remembering when his vision had become blurry: "Teacher Zhizhi, you are such a kind and understanding person."

Things have suddenly gotten better.

It's always the clients who desperately try to shorten the project timeline. When have you ever seen such a generous client who doesn't rush them to work?

The director wiped away his tears, and Xiaodou's eyes shone with unwavering determination.

Let alone if Teacher Zhizhi wanted to promote one person, even if she promoted ten, just based on that phone call just now, he would wholeheartedly support her.

not to mention,

Shen Zhi stuffed people in openly and honestly.

Praising someone with ability isn't called praising; it's called finding a kindred spirit amidst adversity.

Failing to promote talented individuals is truly letting a gem tarnish its luster and blinding one's judgment.

A week later, Shen Zhi was quite satisfied with the live broadcast plan offered by "The Good Singer" and finalized it immediately. That afternoon, the official Weibo account released promotional materials for the live broadcast.

Not only did they introduce the latest live performance format, but they also officially announced that Shen Zhi would participate in this season of "The Singer" as a special guest.

Within half an hour of the official announcement, the official Weibo account had received over ten million likes and reposts.

The comments below were even more enthusiastic.

[Holy crap! Is this a live stream? I can't wait to hear my beloved Ke Chen's heavenly voice!]

[Unedited and un-edited live singing competitions are like a truth serum, finally exposing those fake singers!]

[Don't worry, my brother won't be in the photo. He has hundreds of singing videos, and his singing ability speaks for itself~]

[Putting aside everyone else, I'd watch it just for Chong Zhizhi! It's an absolute feast for both the eyes and ears!]

[I hope Zhizhi can create an original song for the show!]

[Zhizhi will start the show with a sweet little song~]

[Wish +1!! I've practically worn out the few lines Zhizhi hummed in the stairwell! Her ears need a fresh song!]

On the day of the first live broadcast of "The Singer", tens of millions of netizens flooded in as soon as the live broadcast channel was opened.

The number of online users has exceeded 100 million and is still growing rapidly.

With such a large number of online users, the platform's media player runs incredibly smoothly without any lag.

Has anyone noticed that the network speed of the music player on Hunan TV seems to have increased?

[I noticed it too!! It started lagging after 50 million comments, and it would even crash later, making the viewing experience terrible, but it's so smooth today!]

[As a fan of Zhizhi, I know why! It must be because Zhizhi upgraded the online live streaming software! She did this before when she participated in skiing competitions in Y country and when the Wild God team competed. It's standard practice~]

[Awesome! Other people's older sisters bring their own internet traffic, your older sister brings her own internet speed. With her around, nothing unexpected happens!]

[Who understands the true value of a smooth live stream? Hoping for Zhizhi's nationwide app repair tour]

The studio lights were all on, and the live stream chat was filled with a dense stream of comments, all from viewers who were waiting for the live stream to start on the hour.

Shen Linchuan deliberately sat in the very center of the front row of the audience, dressed in a simple black shirt, his temperament eye-catching.

Beside the man were seven handsome men with completely different appearances and temperaments, and two equally stunning beauties, Fu Xin and He Li.

Everyone's eyes were fixed intently on the stage entrance; they all shared the same identity today: fans of Zhizhi.

The camera randomly panned across the audience seats in the live stream, and the scrolling speed of the comments noticeably increased.

[Holy crap! Is the audience for The Singer really that awful? Why are there so many handsome men and beautiful women?]

Behind that magnificent, handsome face lies an even more breathtakingly beautiful face; I'm speechless!

[Ahhhh, isn't that guy with the silver hair in the third row, Hoshino?! He's so handsome! The whole Hoshino team is here!]

I saw Shi Yang and Pei Shaoyuan! Right in the corner of the first row, oh my god...

[Who knows! The four mentors we invited are this year's and last year's Golden Melody Award winners for Best Male and Female Vocalist!]

[I envy the audience who could go to the event; they not only watched the game but also saw so many celebrities!]

[Shen Zhi: Showcasing her network...]

Until all the lights suddenly went out, the previously noisy scene fell silent.

"Waaah—"

The girl's ethereal and sweet humming pierced through the clouds like a ray of light, gently yet powerfully reaching everyone's ears.
