Young Miss Strike Back! - Chapter 113
Teng Fugen was completely in a daze. Her whole world suddenly changed from being someone who had no one to rely on to a person who had a guardian angel! The eyes she looked up at Lin Xiaoxiao with changed and were now filled with worship. Qin Mei was the first one to notice this change and she could only let out a sigh. ‘ Why was it that my daughter is able to attract women left and right like a magnet! ‘ She had a feeling that there was going to be the second incarnation of Minmin soon. Qin Mei stayed quiet though she figured that this would be a good lesson to her daughter to not be so knightly and save every damsel in distress that she sees!
Not long later, one of the studio’s crew members came in said that the show was about to start and everyone should be ready. The show was two hours long and only aired once a week. It was live so there were never any retakes. This was to ensure that the audience got to see the real skills of these up and coming stars. Lin Xiaoxiao thought this kind of program was very good for new stars. It made them push themselves to be even better than they normally would and hopefully this kind of experience will help these new stars grow even further. At the same time, this show was also a way to weed out those who were false idols.
According to the schedule, Lin Xiaoxiao was to go on last. She had the biggest spot due to her upcoming movie. This was, of course, arranged by Shen Xing. He wanted her to have the last spot so he pulled a few strings. Not only would it help his wife but also help promote the new movie. It would also be the first time that some of the movie scenes would be shown to the public. It was good hype, to say the least.
Lin Xiaoxiao sat in the waiting room watching as the show finally started.
“Good evening ladies and gentlemen! Tonight do we got a show for you! We have some of the newest names out there that most of you have never even heard of. As always I am your host Meng Hu! First on our list is so…” As Meng Hu was in the middle of introducing the first person who was supposed to be Chen Zinan a crew member ran on stage to inform Meg Hu of the change.
This was a normal occurrence on this show mainly due to some talents getting cold feet and leaving before it was their turn. Although this show was good for promotion it could also end a new talent’s career if they messed up too badly. This would put extra pressure on the new talents and some could not take the extra pressure and chose to leave instead of going on stage. This actually worked out well for other talents since they would get a portion of the time as extra for themselves. Allowing them to promote themselves even more.
But one thing that these talents did not know was that by leaving it did not mean that the world would not know they had left. Because Meng Hu was not a kind man. “Ahah so it seems the first to be on stage Chen Zinan ran away in fear!” Meng Hu said while laughing.
In a van heading back to her home. Chen Zinan was watching The Next Big Thing from her phone. When she heard Meng Hu announcing to the world that she had run away in fear she was so mad she tossed her phone onto the floor as she grinded her teeth together. “Shen Lily Xiaoxiao! Teng Fugen! Just you wait I will make sure you two suffer for what you did to me today!”
“Ahchoo!” Back in the waiting room Lin Xiaoxiao let out a sneeze.
“Lily, you coming down with something?” Qin Mei quickly walked over and handed Lin Xiaoxiao a tissue.
“No, I feel fine… Maybe someone is talking about me…” Lin Xiaoxiao could pretty much guess who it was.
On the stage, Meng Hu started to announce the next upcoming star. “Okay next on the list is someone who was not scared to appear on my show. Someone you probably never heard of but I have to say this girl is a very hard worker. Up until today, she has not had any agency and worked her butt off to get to where she is now and her luck seems to be godly because as of today, just before the show, she was able to sign a contract with Empire Entertainment! To top it off she is only sixteen years old! So let’s give a round of applause for TENG FUGEN~!!”
The audience went nuts at the sudden news. Being able to sign on with the biggest name in the industry in City A before appearing on this show must mean she was very skilled. What’s more, was that she survived in this industry at such a young age while having no backing at all. Teng Fugen who was backstage started to get nervous with such a great introduction. Although she was nervous, she was also really happy. This was her big chance to really get her name out there. If she did well, she might even get calls for jobs tomorrow!
Taking a deep breath Teng Fugen walked out on stage. “Ahh, there she is. And look at how cute she is! Miss Teng welcome to the show! How do you feel tonight?”
“I-I feel nervous… But also very excited to be here.” Teng Fugen started to stutter but quickly caught herself.
“That’s great! That’s great! It’s normal to feel nervous, especially when it comes to a show like this. Miss Teng, I heard you got a contract deal with Empire Entertainment right before the show started and had already signed the contract officially making you a talent of Empire Entertainment. How does that make you feel?” Meng Hu asked.
“About that well…”
