The two Weibo posts instantly caused a meltdown on the social media platform.
Netizens began to fervently share and comment.
[This year’s Oracle contest really brought honor to Great Xia. Not only did NINE the God secure the first kill in the dungeon, but we also got the rights to perform the ninth-anniversary theme song. Hahaha, our neighbors must be fuming.]
[I felt their arrogance at last year’s Hera Awards ceremony, looking down on everyone. They were so confident in their home-field advantage, but then got slapped in the face by Su God. And now, they’ve been slapped again. So satisfying!]
[Wasn’t it rumored that Lu Ningsheng’s vocal cords were damaged? Seems that was false, otherwise Oracle wouldn’t have chosen her. Those who spread the rumors are malicious. I’m off to enter the draw.]
[What’s funnier is that MO Yufei was vying for this spot too. But Oracle officials directly chose their candidate. Both love and career have eluded her. How pitiful.]
With Lu Ningsheng confirmed as the collaborator, Oracle, as an international gaming giant, naturally released this announcement on all global platforms. The middle-aged man, just leaving the Oracle headquarters, saw the news.
Yet, he was unfamiliar with the name Lu Ningsheng.
His assistant hurriedly explained, “Queen Lu was nominated for a Hera Music Award five years ago and is quite famous in the Great Xia Empire. She hasn’t sung much in the past two years, though.”
“Only nominated?” The middle-aged man raised his voice. “Ms. Molly won the award twice. How could Lu Ningsheng replace her?”
His frustration grew as he headed back, determined to get a clear answer, “No,
I have to figure this out.”
If Oracle had chosen someone more talented than Molly, he wouldn’t say a word. But can a nominee really compare to a winner?
“That’s the thing, Mr. Daniel. Ms. Lu was personally confirmed by President Ji,” the secretary politely explained. “Do you remember the third anniversary’s commemorative song? President Ji said this year’s song is also by the same friend who composed it, and Ms. Lu was their recommendation. President Ji naturally agreed to use her.”
“Third anniversary?!” The middle-aged man was shocked.
Oracle became globally popular in its second year, and the third anniversary drew international music attention.
That song won that year’s Hera Music Award.
The singer, Natasha Ivanov, was already at the pinnacle of international music.
The middle-aged man was fully aware of the composer’s true talent.
“Of course, Mr. Daniel can rest assured, Oracle wouldn’t choose someone without talent,” the secretary smiled slightly. “Queen Lu’s voice is very suitable for Eastern-style songs. The music video will be released at the end of July.
You’ll see then.”
The middle-aged man couldn’t help but ask, “Is Mr. Ji’s friend from Great Xia?” The secretary only smiled, offering no answer.
The middle-aged man understood, taking a deep breath. “Alright, I’ll wait for the music video’s release.”
He shook his head, leaving with regret.
The collaboration between Oracle and Lu Ningsheng not only shook the world but also caught Universal Century Music by surprise.
They were planning to send MO Yufei to the Oracle headquarters after she finished recording the show at the Great Xia TV.
Of course, they didn’t expect MO Yufei to be chosen by Oracle, but any connection was good.
However, the chairman hadn’t expected the discarded Lu Ningsheng to collaborate directly with Oracle!
He knew more than the uninformed public. Early last year, many hospitals confirmed Lu Ningsheng’s vocal cords couldn’t be restored.
Even the top stars from the Western Continent were vying for this opportunity. How did Lu Ningsheng silently secure it?!
The chairman’s face turned from red to pale, his forehead veins throbbing.
No wonder Lu Ningsheng decisively terminated her contract with Universal Century Music. She was waiting for them here!
But even with the backing of the Shen family, they couldn’tpossibly influence Oracle.
And how did Lu Ningshengs vocal cords recover?!
“Chairman, it’s bad!” The PR manager burst in. “The Shen family, they’ve taken action!”
The chairman’s vision blurred, he quickly stood up. “What happened?!”
The PR manager was frantic. “Mo-Mo Yufei is likely done for.”
Photos of MO Yufei with various people started to surface online.
From young stars like He Yu in their early twenties to investors in their fifties and sixties, there was no shortage..
