The elevator door opened.

Mu Chen took huge strides out, as if he was avoiding the plague, and walked away.

Only then did Fang Mo’er slowly walk out of the elevator.

She had presented him with the opportunity, but he had not taken advantage of it.

It seemed that in Mu Chen’s eyes, Bai Rong was the company’s unshakable cash cow.

The company’s main entrance.

A car was already parked in front.

The moment Fang Mo’er walked out, Assistant Yu immediately got out of the car.

He respectfully opened the car door for her.

After Fang Mo’er got into the car, Assistant Yu handed her the contract that had already been drawn up.

“Madam President, this is the artiste contract.”

Fang Mo’er took a look at it. It said that within a year, the company would turn her into a top singer.

The annual salary was 10 million, but there were very few things required of her.

It was a contract that would completely provide for all financial and material resources.

Fang Mo’er picked up her pen and signed it.

Assistant Yu said, “The company gave you the stage name of The Veiled Queen. Next, there will be a recording session for the theme song that you wrote. I will send you to the recording studio.”

Fang Mo’er blinked. “I heard that three people have been entered into the pre-selection list for this song. Will there also be a live audition?”

Assistant Yu smiled. “President Shi said that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Your enemy is also his enemy.”

Fang Mo’er had not expected that Shi Mo would actually set a trap for Bai Rong.

He wanted her to be happy first, before he rejected her.

“I understand. Let’s go.”

Assistant Yu sent Fang Mo’er to the recording studio.

At the same time.

Bai Rong was also on her way to the recording studio, but she had an anxious look on her face.

Ten minutes ago, she had received a call from Qihang Film and Television.

She had been instructed to go to the recording studio for her audition.

Bai Rong had said that she couldn’t go, but asked if she could use a pre-recorded audio instead of doing a live recording.

Unexpectedly, the other party had said, “I’m sorry, Miss Bai. According to our company’s rules, if it is not recorded live, you won’t be eligible to participate.”

Bai Rong was very concerned about this theme song. She would still have a chance if she went, but if she did not go, it would confirm her as a failure.

Therefore, she gritted her teeth and decisively rushed to the audition venue.

However, her expression on her face along the way, was not pleasant.

In the past, whenever they had worked together, she would use pre-recorded audio recordings. This time, however, it looked like her chances were slim.

After thinking for a while, Bai Rong quickly got her assistant to post something on Weibo.

“Make an online post about me going to Qihang company. Say that Qihang Film and Television likes my singing and invited me to go over to their company.”

The assistant immediately understood.

This would cause a misunderstanding that might lead to a collaboration.

Once the public made their opinions known, even if Qihang Film and Television wanted to pick another singer to sing the song, they would have to consider the impact.

After all, the fans already mistakenly thought that Bai Rong would be collaborating with Qihang Film and Television.

Once the news of that was released, it would be difficult to change it.

After doing all this, Bai Rong’s heart calmed down slightly.

When they arrived at Qihang Film and Television, Bai Rong was led to the company’s recording studio.

“Hello, Miss Bai, shall we start the audition now?”

Bai Rong nervously took a sip of water. The other party was treating her quite respectfully.

After all, she was a popular singer.

Apprehensively, she walked into the recording studio.

Bai Rong deliberately stirred up her emotions to try and hype herself up.

The minutes passed by.

In the recording studio, the recording master saw that Bai Rong was not ready to start yet, and could not help but urge her, “Miss Bai, are you ready?”

Bai Rong composed herself and said, “Yes.”

As the music accompaniment started to play, Bai Rong could only try her best.

However, because the strength of her skill did not allow for it, there was a slight change in tone the moment she opened her mouth.

The recording engineer looked at Bai Rong as if he had seen a ghost.

The quality of her voice was too weak, and the resonance was also very poor. Compared to the voice in her music videos, the difference was like comparing heaven and earth.

The door of the recording studio next door was wide open, welcoming the arrival of another singer.

Fang Mo’er walked to the door of the recording studio and immediately saw Bai Rong singing in the recording studio, from the outside. However, all the people listening outside the recording studio looked like they were constipated.

Some of them had even turned their heads away, too embarrassed to look.

However, Bai Rong seemed to feel good about herself and had a loving expression on her face.

Fang Mo’er burst out laughing. This was not a bad surprise at all.

Fang Mo’er turned around and followed her assistant into another recording studio.

When the recording engineer saw Fang Mo’er’s appearance, he was pleasantly surprised.

He quickly went up to her and asked, “Are you the veiled singer?”

Fang Mo’er was wearing a veil over her face.

Her stage name was now The Veiled Queen.

Assistant Yu replied, “Of course. This is the veiled singer who is currently trending on the internet. She has already signed on with our company. I’m bringing her here for a recording session.”

The recording engineer looked at Fang Mo’er with admiration.

He quickly said, “Miss, this way please.”

Assistant Yu waited outside the recording studio.

Fang Mo’er walked into the recording studio and stood in the middle of the room. She adjusted the microphone and put on the headphones.

She looked very confident and calm.
