[Ding—Congratulations to the host for completing the second stage of the long-term quest, "How Could a White, Rich, and Beautiful Woman Be Unknown?". You have received the following staged quest rewards: 50 million Chinese Yuan + 20% of Xiangtian Entertainment Company shares + a top-tier agent.]
As soon as Zhao Mei got up, she heard the sound of the hardworking system going to work early. Although she blocked the voice messages such as ordinary sign-ins, she could not block such long-term tasks and special tasks.
The second-stage long-term task was automatically triggered on the second day after Zhao Mei Dayan drew the prize, when the number of fans on the entire network exceeded 100,000. Of course, it was not only the fans on the Dayan platform, but also the fans on the previous live broadcast platform.
Zhao Mei opened her phone and clicked on the Big Eye platform. After nearly half a month of interaction with the lottery, she had accumulated more than 300,000 fans. She had held two live broadcasts on Douyin and still had more than 200,000 fans, thus successfully completing the second task of this stage.
However, this Xiangtian Entertainment Company? Zhao Mei still skillfully asked the system encyclopedia.
Xiangtian Entertainment is the leading entertainment company in China, your world. It holds a vast amount of IP resources and has signed contracts with many first- and second-tier celebrities.
Zhao Mei nodded, thinking that asking the system would be the fastest. Before she could get out of bed and wash up, her cell phone rang. Zhao Mei picked up the phone, took a look at it, and answered it.
"Hello, Sister Xu Yan, are you looking for me?"
"Meili, our studio has been renovated. I may start hiring people during this period."
"It's okay, Sister Xu Yan. Just do whatever you want. I trust you completely."
"Hahaha, you little girl, you trust me quite a bit, but there's one more thing, you have to ask Jiahe to come over, her clothes are ready."
"Sister Xu Yan, you're so quick. I'll ask Jia He to get it later. She's rehearsing a new play right now, and the costumes just came out."
"Okay, just ask her to come get it when she's free. But don't go the wrong way. I've moved to the studio now, in the Haocheng Building."
"Don't worry, Sister Xu Yan, I will go with her then."
"It's even better if you come. As my new muse, you'll have a ton of clothes to try on."
"Ah, there's no need to try them all..."
"You have to try everything. Don't even think about running away. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first."
"...Okay, Sister Xu Yan."
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Mei recalled the hellish day when she went to Xu Yan's clothing store and tried on clothes for a whole day. She wanted to escape badly.
But now that the studio has been established, Zhao Mei suddenly thought, hasn't the first phase of her long-term mission, the business empire, been completed yet? This is already two companies!
Zhao Mei quickly called the system: "Xiao Lan, what's going on? My Phase 1, isn't it? It's not finished yet?"
[Hello host, after testing, the system has determined that you have not completed stage one.]
"Although it's called a business empire, it's only at the first stage. Aren't two companies enough?"
[Sorry, host, the system cannot answer any questions about any tasks.]
Zhao Mei sat cross-legged on the bed, thinking about her experience of the special task of buying clothes. She guessed that it was either the quantity or the variety that was insufficient. But if the variety was only one, something would be wrong. The affiliated companies under her were already in two major directions.
Mingzhao Investment Company founded by Huo Cailiang and Bello Fashion Company founded by Xu Yan are two completely unrelated industries. Zhao Mei shook her head. If it is not the type, it is probably the quantity. This is basically the only possibility. After all, if you look at the development of the company, Huo Cailiang's investment company has been in the limelight recently.
After figuring out her goal, Zhao Mei began to wonder what kind of company to start. Although the system's hints were obvious, it was still worth thinking about whether she should really invest heavily in starting an entertainment company. However, before she could think about it carefully, Qiu Jiahe called.
"Beautiful, beautiful! We're rehearsing this afternoon! We'll be performing after the holiday! Come and see!"
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away, but is it okay for you to rehearse without your costume?"
"It's okay. I've talked to the president and shown the design to the art teacher, as well as the mannequin drawing Sister Yan sent me earlier. They're all approved. I just need to be able to wear it when the performance comes. There's no rush."
"Okay then, wait until you're done with rehearsal before getting it."
After talking about the costumes, Zhao Mei hung up the phone and started to wash up, had lunch, put on some clothes casually and got in the car.
Sitting in the car, Zhao Mei wailed for the umpteenth time: "When can I drive my beloved car?... It takes so long to get a driver's license..."
Zhao Jing, whose ears were already callused from hearing such stories, remained calm: "Miss, you only need to wait patiently for about a month before you can get it. It will be fast already."
Zhao Mei, realizing that her housekeeper had become uncooperative, helplessly turned on her cell phone and complained to Qiu Jiahe.
Soon, the car stopped at Capital University, and Zhao Mei rushed to the small theater before the rehearsal began. To her surprise, there were a lot of people.
Zhao Mei walked around the stage and went backstage. She found Qiu Jiahe and asked, "Jiahe, why are there so many people here today? Don't you usually rehearse alone in the drama club?"
While putting on makeup, Qiu Jiahe said, "Oh, I forgot to tell you, this is a rehearsal. Since the holiday is coming soon, we have to perform right after returning from the holiday. We don't have much spare time, so the first rehearsal is held today."
Zhao Mei nodded in understanding: "Doesn't that mean all the people invited by the school are here?"
Qiu Jiahe looked at her affirmatively: "Yes, so it seems there are celebrities too, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people. Someone from the school's publicity department is here too."
After Zhao Mei got the answer, the rehearsal was about to begin, so she could only hurriedly say goodbye to Qiu Jiahe and leave from the backstage.
Just as Zhao Mei was going out, a figure passed by her, causing Zhao Mei to turn her head sharply. The familiar figure walked hurriedly and disappeared around the corner in the blink of an eye.
Sitting in the audience, Zhao Mei was still wondering why she looked familiar, but the rehearsal had already begun, so she could only applaud along.
However, Zhao Mei's doubt was soon answered.
Looking at the girl singing and dancing on the stage in front of her, Zhao Mei knew instantly that it was Qiao Qiudie after seeing her face clearly. She had given a reward to the first girl who danced very well during the live broadcast. She had not expected that she could sing so well, and she had not expected to see her here.
Although she watched her live broadcast several times later, her full classes made her already crowded schedule even worse, and she had no time to watch it at all. Every time she talked about full classes, Zhao Mei would complain about her school, wondering why she would still have full classes in her senior year!
After complaining, Zhao Mei felt that Qiao Qiudie's appearance here was unexpected but reasonable. After all, after she became famous through live streaming, she was no longer short of money. Later, she became popular again by making Douyin videos, and now she is also a big internet celebrity.
Thinking of this, Zhao Mei suddenly became curious. Now that she was so successful, would she still want to stand in front of more people, facing their gazes and the praise and criticism? Did she still love dancing now? Or was it the money and glamour that dancing brought her?
Zhao Mei did not deny it at all. Seeing herself, she had some ideas about the mission.
