Kang Jinxian hid in a hotel room, sitting on the bed as she watched TV.
On the screen, "The Most Beautiful Voice" was playing.
When Mai Zheng appeared with his cool outfit, handsome and sunny face, performing a self-composed song on guitar, the boy seemed to have been born for the stage—it was inconceivable that he wouldn’t become popular.
After he introduced himself, the audience following the show immediately understood.
He was the son of the Famous King Mai.
Many people probably remembered a popular parent-child reality show from ten years ago—Mai Zheng was one of the kids on it.
In the blink of an eye, he had grown up so much—from the arrogant little boy back then to a multi-talented, handsome and sunny young man now, it truly made people sigh with emotion.
Moreover, his few exchanges with Ming Han really brought back memories of that summer.
What was Ming Han’s daughter’s name again? She was incredibly popular back then but eventually faded from the public eye. With Ming Han and Mai Zheng’s casual mention, many people had a vague memory of her, but, due to the passage of time, they couldn’t quite recall what she looked like.
Watching this, Kang Jinxian clenched her fist in secret—it was Ji Yunya they were talking about. If they actually managed to dig up Ji Yunya now, when society is all about looks, what place would there be for her?
As she was deep in thought, Mai Zheng left the stage and it was her turn.
Kang Jinxian took a deep breath and gripped her phone tightly.
Seeing herself appear and stun the audience with her singing, the camera gave close-ups of several judges, all wearing looks of shock and delight on their faces.
At the same time, her Weibo backend kept popping up system messages; people were following her Weibo and the numbers were increasing at an alarming rate.
As Kang Jinxian watched, she couldn’t help but curl the corners of her mouth in pride.
On public platforms such as Weibo, tieba, forums, etc., the keywords "The Most Beautiful Voice," Ming Han, Mai Zheng, and Kang Le were being mentioned incessantly, and their search volume started to climb gradually.
That night, Mai Zheng became famous, but an up-and-coming young singer named Kang Le was even more the talk of the town.
Meanwhile, the chief director, Yuan Pan, saw a decade-old program, "Parent-Child Battle," resurface online because of netizens. It was from this show that Ming Han and Mai Zheng’s bond began. Now that the two reunited on the same program, fans of Ming Han, Mai Zheng, and even long-time followers of the show were all excited.
Also mentioned was Ming Han’s daughter from the program. Someone posted a photo of the little girl and it spread like wildfire online, and people were scrambling to unearth her current whereabouts.
Finding out about the girl’s recent situation wasn’t difficult, and not long after the program aired, Ji Yunya’s identity was thoroughly revealed.
It turned out that the girl came from a wealthy family—she was the Yun Group Heiress. Yun Group, currently the largest real estate firm in the country, was undoubtedly known by everyone in Country Hua.
The netizens were boiling with excitement—she was a rich heiress.
At the same time, a media report from a while back was unearthed by the powerful netizens. Ji Yunya had returned to Country Hua a few days ago, making a splendid comeback at the Yun Family’s adopted daughter’s birthday celebration. Because of her breathtaking beauty and outstanding temperament, inheriting her mother’s aura, she was unanimously named by the Jiangzhou media as the "Number One Socialite."
A blurred distant photo from the newspaper circulated, despite the low resolution, it couldn’t conceal her imposing elegance—numerous netizens were licking their screens shouting "goddess."
With the names like Mai Zheng, Ming Han, Kang Le, and others, Ji Yunya climbed up the trending searches and became widely discussed by netizens.
On the night the program aired, the viewership soared and the online discussion heated up, leading to a new hot topic in public opinion. Chief director Yuan Pan looked at all the climbing data and couldn’t stop smiling.
His position in the station was now unshakable, and he was already a shoo-in for the next TV station chief’s election. This program was the last satisfactory report card he presented before his position.
"Tell the publicity department and the copywriting team to hurry up, strike while the iron is hot, draft a few more promotional plans. At the same time, notify the other directors to reserve promotional space for the program, and finalize the promotion schedule with the four leading mentors and popular contestants, to leverage our TV station’s other shows for momentum..." Yuan Pan rattled off instructions, then he seemed to remember something and added, "Have Xiao Li contact the guests from ’Parent-Child Battle’ back then—a reunion after ten years would be a good gimmick. They’re all doing well now, which could add more buzz to ’The Most Beautiful Voice.’" Official source is novel fire.net
"Yes, Director." The assistant took note of everything and was about to leave when Yuan Pan suddenly said, "Hold on."
