The audience is there to set the mood, Tan Mo explained, That means we cant pre-record episodes the way Singing Voice does and broadcast them later.

However, recording the first two episodes wont be a problem. Our guest artists wont face elimination in the first round. Well broadcast the second episode live on television and stream it online. Thats when well open the polls for votes from Kefeng Films.

Netizens all have one free vote. As for how they may obtain extra votes, its quite simple. Extra votes are available to those purchasing our sponsors products, but more on that later; the programme and marketing departments are still in the midst of negotiations.

The overall structure will follow Kefeng Films previous male talent show, where each singer must depend on themselves to clinch victory. There can only be one winner.

The question of how far my second brother will go depends on his ability, Tan Mo reiterated.

When it comes to attracting fans, much depends on ones charisma. Even if someone achieves great results through our variety show, it doesnt mean theyll automatically have their paths paved for them. Many ups and downs mark an artists career, so victory or defeat in the variety show isnt

necessarily the end. Most importantly, the variety show will create an impression, which is more valuable than gold to artists.

Since Tan Mo had already disclosed her selfish intentions in drawing up plans for the variety show, she had to go the whole way.

When the production department people heard Tan Mos idea, their expressions lit up.

Indeed. People are growing bored of watching the same thing rehashed in one shape or another. At present, the common census indicates that group selections are more popular with viewers. If we were to combine the former method with a singing compet.i.tion, we could create a whole new variety

show, Shu Shulei nodded.

Thank you for your suggestions. Weve noted them down and will develop a comprehensive plan as soon as possible, Liu Jingfu said.

s.h.i.+ Shulei said to Xu Das.h.i.+, Mr Xu, should we discuss the matter of Broken Continent appearing on The Stars as soon as possible? It would be best to broadcast a few episodes before our variety show airs so that the audience will have the opportunity to listen to Teacher Tans songs.

s.h.i.+ Shulei was already thinking of how they could proceed.

Xu Das.h.i.+ looked at this group of people. They were much better people than Manager Liang and the others.

The program details had not been finalized, yet they were already making plans ahead of schedule.

Til urge them to hurry up, Xu Das.h.i.+ said.

Mr Xu, Bos:

. Perhaps it was because Tan Mo had said too much, but s.h.i.+ Shulei was treating her more and more like his future boss.

His voice caught in his throat as he called Tan Mo Boss.

s.h.i.+ Shulei hurriedly changed his words. Tan Mo, is there anything else? If not, lets hurry back and finish the plan.

Time waits for no man, more so when Broken Continent was going to air on The Stars.

Moreover, s.h.i.+ Shulei had a budding thought.

He wanted to broadcast it alongside Singing Voice as soon as possible. It would be a real compet.i.tion, wouldnt it?

Otherwise, how would Singing Voice be convinced of its loss?

As for his side, would they lose?

Sorry, s.h.i.+ Shulei did not even consider the possibility.

Previously, Tan Mos Broken Continent competed with Nine Heavens and won beautifully.

Tan Mos ability gave s.h.i.+ Shulei unwavering confidence in her plan. As long as Tan Mo partic.i.p.ated in it and thought highly of it, there was no way they would lose!

If one were to ask him how Tan Mo managed to evoke such confidence in him, s.h.i.+ Shulei would not know how to answer.

It was a matter of intuition.

Xu Das.h.i.+ looked at Tan Mo and the other two.

Tan Jingi shook his head, indicating that everything was fine. Tan Mo said, We have nothing else to do here. Thank you for coming all the way here.

It was nothing, nothing at all, s.h.i.+ Shulei and the others hurriedly replied before excusing themselves.

Tan Mo was in no hurry to leave.

She still had some matters to settle.

Mtr Xu, since Broken Continent has been so well received, and there are only three more episodes before it concludes, the final result should be certain, Tan Mo said.

Will you allow me to call in on the bet I made with Manager Wu?

Of course, if Manager Wu insists on waiting until the end That isnt an issue either. Id be more than happy to wait for Broken Continent to finish airing. After all, there are only three more episodes to its conclusion. Tan Mo felt there was no meaning to dragging out her conflict with Manager Wu.

The sooner he found himself a new job, the better.

Xu Das.h.i.+ was not surprised in the least.

Tan Mo was young, but he had a lot to learn from her.

Xu Das.h.i.+ knew Tan Mo was no soft-hearted young woman. She always meant business, and it was Manager Wus folly for stirring up the hornets nest.

Tan Mo would show no mercy. Why should she when her enemy would show her none were he to have the high ground?

This young girl had a vicious streak a mile wide.

Still, her words were not wrong.

If Manager Wu had been in her shoes, he would not have shown her an ounce of mercy.

Tan Mo was someone who could harden her heart when the situation called for it.

It was a trait Xu Das.h.i.+ admired greatly.

Xu Das.h.i.+ nodded. The results speak for themselves. Broken Continent has proven its worth.

Broken Continent had single-handedly delivered Kefeng Films KPI on a silver platter, attaining a years worth alone.

If this result was not good enough, what other drama could compare?

Xu Das.h.i.+ said to Yan Zhengxing, Call Manager Wu over.

Yan Zhengxing immediately gave Manager Wu a call, asking him to go to the meeting room.

Manager Wu had been feeling uneasy at work these past few days and had been paying attention to Tan Mo.

He watched Tan Mos every action like a hawk, and his wariness grew as Broken Continent gained traction.

Yet, Tan Mo had not come looking for him.

Manager Wu could not help but wonder if Tan Mo was too embarra.s.sed to bring up the bet she had made with him at the spur of the moment.

Perhaps she was just another thin-skinned, soft-hearted young girl all bark but no bite. If so, it did not surprise him that she would pretend the incident had never occurred.

It was just as well. Manager Wu had no intention to resign.

Besides, he had not done anything wrong.

If push came to shove, he would adopt Managers Xu and Wus position. He would not go against Tan Mo.

Broken Continent was already nearing its end, but Tan Mo still had not sought him out.

Manager Wu imagined that Tan Mos silence was her wish to play down the matter and pretend it never happened.

Little did he know that she would have gone knocking on his door at a much earlier date had she the time.

The compet.i.tion between Broken Continent and Nine Heavens had occupied much of her attention.

Furthermore, she still had to promote Broken Continent, previously unknown to many.

Even after the viewers.h.i.+p ratings of Broken Continent stabilized, she still had to prepare for the upcoming variety show by Kefeng Films. Her schedule was so busy she had had no time to spare for the likes of Manager Wu.

Now that an opportunity had presented itself, she would deal with Manager Wu in one fell swoop.

Manager Wu had heard that Tan Mo was around today, and his heart clenched involuntarily, gripped by worry.

When he asked around, he found out that she was in a meeting with the programme team for the new variety show.

He knew that the production department had recently begun a new project involving a singing variety show..
