Chapter 128 End of the Music Competition and Heartbeat

Fang Meng was also shocked when she heard this. Is this true or false?

If I hug her... isn't that a bit too much? Although the eldest lady usually speaks to people around her in a gentle and easy-going manner, she has always been very self-disciplined when it comes to matters between men and women.

In fact, Fang Meng already found it very strange and surprising that the eldest lady changed her clothes and found a place to date Lin Zhengran just for the purpose of child marriage.

If she hugged him again, even though the young lady was probably lying about the hug, even so, didn't it prove that maybe the young lady really felt interest in Lin Zhengran not just because of Qianqian?

If I really fall in love... Fang Meng sighed silently, listening to the two sisters arguing again, always feeling that future life would be very abstract.

These two people would actually quarrel like this over a boy. Fang Meng had never even thought of this before.

The night is getting deeper and deeper. No matter how serious the war is, it will not go on forever. There will always be a time when people get tired.

At most, the two sisters would be at loggerheads for a little longer tonight, but it would definitely end in the end.

The two Rolls-Royces seemed like a pair of angry sisters, driving away in their respective directions after a quarrel.

In Jiang Jingshi's car, the young lady in the silver-white dress was obviously on edge just now, but once she was not with her sister, her expression remained normal. It seemed that she was not angry about what had just happened, but instead found it interesting in the car.

I felt that Qianqian really started to care about Lin Zhengran.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have talked back to me for so long.

However, although she was curious about Lin Zhengran because of her sister when she first met him in the supermarket, as time has evolved, she has also clearly realized that her relationship with Lin Zhengran is no longer because of others.

But my heart was truly attracted to Lin Zhengran.

Thinking of the scene in the cat cafe where she was pushed down by the cats and leaned into his arms, Jiang Jingshi didn't feel embarrassed at all, but just felt her heart beating faster and she felt shy.

Looking at the night sky outside the window, she also remembered something important in her shyness. She took out her cell phone and called her subordinate whom she absolutely trusted.

The other party answered the phone quickly: "Hello, Mr. Jiang?"

Jiang Jingshi looked out the window:

"Find out what Jiang Cheng has been doing recently. Find out all his whereabouts and who he has met with during this period. Also, check if he has any connection with Today's New Star Music."

"yes."

"Then... make me a fake music chart for tomorrow, and find some netizens to make some fake votes for me, but make it look as real as possible."

She reminded: "Hurry up and get it done tonight."

Although the other party didn't know what Jiang Jingshi was going to do, he was absolutely loyal to Jiang Jingshi: "Okay, Mr. Jiang, don't worry, I'll find someone to work overtime tonight to finish it."

"Thank you for your hard work. I will ask the finance department to give you and your people some rewards after tonight."

After a brief chat, the call was hung up and Jiang Jingshi called Lunjie again.

Although Steve is also a big star, his status in the music industry is still a little bit lower than that of Lun Jie. Even if Steve can be bribed, Lun Jie has worked with Jiang Jingshi before.

So if there is something behind today's events, then he must be able to see something.

The call is connected.

Jiang Jingshi smiled: "Lunjie, are you asleep?"

"Not yet, is there anything Mr. Jiang needs?"

"Well, I want to talk to you about today's game. It's quite important. I'll ask someone to pick you up."

As long as Jiang Jingshi knew what Jiang Cheng wanted to do, she could solve it with some simple strategies.

That night, Jiang Jingshi met Lunjie in an office. After a brief chat, Lunjie handed Jiang Jingshi a list of singers that he had secretly memorized that day and said:

"These are the people I think can really advance today. When I heard Steve keep saying they passed, I felt like they were chosen internally. But I was thinking that Mr. Jiang shouldn't do these things, because there is really not much meaning in doing this in the music industry. I didn't expect it to be like this."

Jiang Jingshu laughed and took the real list of qualifiers from the other party.

"Thank you for your attention. This list makes things much simpler and saves a lot of trouble."

Later that night she sent the videos of the people on the list to Lin Zhengran again and asked him to confirm it.

Compared to others, she now inexplicably trusts Lin Zhengran more, and she can't tell why.

She was relieved only after Lin Zhengran confirmed that there was no problem.

The next morning, Lin Zhengran met up with Jiang Xueli and went to the competition venue together.

There are significantly fewer players in today's competition than yesterday. At a glance, there are only about sixty people.

This includes the cameraman and some staff members.

Jiang Xueli stood beside Lin Zhengran, and even she sighed: "Why are there so few people today? Don't the eliminated contestants need to come?"

As soon as Lin Zhengran saw the scene today, he knew what Jiang Jingshi was going to do.

Sure enough, the back door of the music competition venue opened soon, and Jiang Jingshi walked out with the two judges just like yesterday.

While chatting and laughing, Jiang Jingshi looked at Lin Zhengran in the distance and smiled at him from afar.

Lin Zhengran also smiled.

Ten minutes later, today's competition began with the announcement of the host. The two judges didn't need to do anything today. All the fifty contestants had to do was to go on stage and sing and record the performance in turn.

In this way, it can be put on the list of young stars and then rated by netizens.

After the game, Jiang Xueli and Lin Zhengran sat in the audience area to rest and wait.

Jiang Xueli lowered her head and looked at the list of rising stars posted on her mobile phone. It showed that the voting time was only a few hours and would end at two o'clock in the afternoon.

Although it was only half a day, the number of votes had reached several thousand in such a short period of time.

Jiang Xueli was surprised: "The voting speed is really fast, but why do I feel that my ranking is not very good? Zhengran, look!" She anxiously handed the phone to Lin Zhengran.

Lin Zhengran saw that Jiang Xueli only had one or two hundred votes, but Xinxing and the contestants under Jiang Jingshi had already voted for three or four hundred.

Lin Zhengran smiled and whispered in her ear: "Don't worry about it, this ranking is fake, and the netizens who voted are also fake. I guess the ranking will be re-adjusted tonight or tomorrow, and the list of contestants will also change."

"Ah? Why?"

Lin Zhengran briefly told Jiang Xueli about the inside story he discussed with Jiang Jingshi yesterday.

Jiang Xueli was stunned when she heard this.

"Really? I was wondering who you met yesterday, and it turned out to be Jiang Qian's sister!"

Jiang Xueli felt as if she was involved in something big. She sat in the audience lounge and looked at the other fifty or so contestants, watching them all staring at the vote count nervously.

Jiang Xueli swallowed her saliva, leaned towards Lin Zhengran and asked in a low voice: "In other words, today's ranking was just made up by Jiang Jingshi to find the traitor?"

"It should be, so there is no need to worry about the ranking. The real ranking will probably be released tonight or tomorrow."

"Wow, is this a business war? This is my first time experiencing it. It's so exciting!"

Lin Zhengran: “.”

Just as Lin Zhengran expected, the final ranking ended at two o'clock in the afternoon.

The top thirty-five are all from Jiang Jingshi and Xinxing Music.

And at the moment the ranking list was released, a large number of posts and videos about Jiang Jingshi's shady dealings suddenly appeared on the Internet.

The number of readings and video views is not small.

It is obvious that someone had already filmed the video, bought traffic and was waiting for this time at two o'clock.

However, these posts, which were supposed to make people angry, had no effect for some unknown reason, and the comments below the posts were also very strange.

Netizen: If my mother has a chicken, then she is my father: "What kind of ranking is this? What's the shady deal? Why didn't I see it?"

Netizen: My dog ​​is like me and I am like my dog: "Yeah, there should at least be a ranking for exposing the scandals. There is no such ranking on the Internet."

Netizen: I shot off on Sunday so today is Monday: "This video is so popular? But the rankings haven't been posted online yet? Didn't they say the rankings will be posted online at 2 o'clock?"

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Netizen: Wow! Original: “I saw the ranking! It was just posted! But it seems to be different from the ranking that exposed the scandal. The names of the contestants don’t even match. Is this picture that exposed the scandal photoshopped? After all, the ranking hasn’t been posted yet, and the scandal can’t be that bad.”

These two reversals left netizens confused, but their confusion was no big deal. However, Jiang Cheng, who was in charge of managing Jiang Jingshi's music team backstage, did not understand at all.

Because this is different from what he imagined, netizens should be furious.

But the current group of netizens seem to be completely different from the netizens before 2 pm.

Before 2 o'clock, netizens were actively voting, and some people asked if there was any shady dealings. Jiang Jingshi even explained in the comments that there was no shady dealings.

But after two o'clock, netizens seemed to have never seen this ranking.

And what did it mean that the ranking of the competition was not posted online until 2 o'clock? Didn't it end at 2 o'clock? And when was this new ranking made? How come I don't know about it at all? With a face full of doubts, he wanted to investigate to see what was going on.

As a result, Jiang Jingshi appeared in the backstage with a group of people, blocking Jiang Cheng's retreat and said with a smile:

"Manager Jiang, where are you going? I just saw in the backstage that the fifteen contestants from Xinxing Music Studio became our people. When did you pull them under my command, and even I, the boss, didn't know about it?"

The man named Jiang Cheng's forehead was covered with sweat in an instant. He looked at the person the other party brought with him and said, "Mr. Jiang..."

Jiang Jingshi took out a few photos and handed them to him: "You took my money and then teamed up with other companies to set me up. You are really capable. Just a reminder, you will go to jail for spreading rumors and slander. I have asked someone to call the police. You should prepare to spend three years in prison, traitor."

Jiang Jingshi's plan was simple. Since Jiang Cheng wanted everyone to think that there was something fishy going on in this match, the other party would definitely hire a group of people to vote for their team after the rankings were released.

So Jiang Jingshi simply played along, made a fake list, hired a group of fake netizens to participate in the voting, and then had other people under her confuse Jiang Cheng and make him think it was real.

As for the new list, that is the real list that Lunjie gave to him and that Lin Zhengran also looked at, it will be posted online after two o'clock.

This way you can be sure of success.

But after all this, there will naturally be some changes in the follow-up of the game.

The actual fifty contestants who qualified were picked up again on the afternoon of the 6th to record their performances.

Only then did he officially enter the list of young rising stars.

The duration of the list has also been changed to last for a full half month.

The final result will be chosen after netizens vote half a month later.

On the afternoon of the 6th, after recording the song, Jiang Xueli stood beside Lin Zhengran and looked at the new, real Little New Stars List: "Zhengran, look! I'm ranked in the top 20!"

Lin Zhengran still has confidence in Jiang Xueli: "It's not accurate just now. Let's see what the ranking is tonight."

"Um!"

Suddenly, a message popped up on Lin Zhengran's phone.

It was sent by Han Wenwen.

"Brother Zhengran? It's almost evening on the 6th. Is the match with Lily over? When are you coming to see me?"

Lin Zhengran simply replied: "I'm still busy now. I'll call you when I'm done."

Han Wenwen replied with a jealous fox emoji: "Okay, then I'll continue to wait. Brother Zhengran hasn't even called me these past few days."

Jiang Xueli saw Lin Zhengran sending a message again and asked curiously, "Who are you messaging?"

Lin Zhengran was honest: "Girlfriend."

Jiang Xueli's face was immediately filled with jealousy. She looked away, thinking it was He Qing: "Okay, but can't you talk about it when you get home? Although I agree that you can have two, but... I haven't gone home yet, in front of me..."

Lin Zhengran put away his phone and looked at the jealous Jiang Xueli.

He reached out and touched her head: "You've worked hard these past two days. After the ranking results come out, I'll go to the zoo with you."

Jiang Xueli blushed and looked at Lin Zhengran, and said in a delicate voice: "The results are not out yet, I may not win the championship."

"You will definitely take it, and even if you don't, I will go with you."

Jiang Xueli was in a trance, but soon she wanted to prove herself. She clenched her fist and confidently proved her strength: "What do you mean you will accompany me even if I don't win? If I don't win the championship, I would be embarrassed to go myself. Don't worry! I will definitely win the championship!"

At this time, Jiang Jingshi came over with a group of people from a distance. Seeing Lin Zhengran talking and laughing with Jiang Xueli, she felt an inexplicable strange emotion in her heart: "Brother Zhengran."

Lin Zhengran and Jiang Xueli looked at Jiang Jingshi.

Lin Zhengran: "Sister Jiang."

Jiang Jingshi looked at Lin Zhengran and said, "This competition was a little messy, but the result was good. Seven of my members made it to the Little Rising Stars list. We'll see who will be the champion then. Thank you for your help this time."

"You're welcome, Sister Jiang. Of course, everyone wants a fair competition, and I am also doing my part to ensure fairness in the competition."

"Well, then I'll see you in half a month when the results come out. I have something else to do and I have to go. Goodbye, brother Zhengran."

"Goodbye, Sister Jiang."

After saying goodbye, Jiang Jingshi turned around and returned to the car, and the car then drove away into the distance.

Although Jiang Xueli knew that she was Jiang Qian's sister, a woman's sixth sense still made her feel that Jiang Jingshi was very gentle to Zhengran. In the car, Jiang Jingshi looked at Lin Zhengran through the rearview mirror in the middle of the car.

Slender fingers clenched.

There is a slight blush on her face.

"I really don't want to say goodbye to you."
