Chapter 190 - Capital TV Channel’s Goodwill



Chapter 190: Capital TV Channel’s Goodwill

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Soon after China’s Top voice made the announcement, Capital TV channel1 too made an announcement in its wake.

[We will temporarily stop airing China’s Top Voice for some internal adjustments and regulatory reevaluation. At the same time, Hong Na’s position as a judge is no longer valid and she will be placed into our blacklist. From this point on Hong Na will no longer be a part of Capital TV channel’s future programs!]

That was equivalent to Capital TV channel’s one-sided banning of Hong Na!

It caused a rippling effect!

To a superstar, that was the heaviest punishment.

Although it was only a ban from Capital TV channel alone, it still made a great impact on Hong Na as this would be a stain on her records. If other TV shows were to invite Hong Na on board, they would have to think twice.

To put simply, Hong Na’s status in the entertainment industry would drop like a rock, making it almost impossible to recover from!

Nobody ever expected Capital TV channel’s decisive action and ruthless approach. They mercilessly killed Hong Na’s career in one stroke without any hesitation.

However, it was clear to many.

They all knew that Capital TV channel’s action was mainly to show their goodwill towards a single person—Y!

Singer Y’s talent was undoubted. Although he never showed himself, his influence in the music industry was monstrous. Capital TV channel’s action was to give up on Hong Na and placed all their bets on Y!

Unsurprisingly, as the announcement made its rounds, Chairman Ding from the Capital TV channel made a Weibo status update on his personal account stating, [Regarding Chen Xiaoyan’s disqualification, I express my deepest regrets. I guarantee that our station will keep a closer watch on future programs to avoid similar incidents from happening! I hope for Chen Xiaoyan and Y to not bear any grudges towards our TV station. Both of you are forever welcome on our channel!]

Meanwhile, at Capital TV channel’s headquarters…

“Chairman, are our actions a little too much?”

Little Wu was Chairman Ding’s secretary. He was reading the heated discussions on Weibo as he asked in a worried tone.

“Hehe, you’re still in the dark because you have yet to see the essence of this incident!”

Chairman Ding shook his head and laughed, “Are you thinking that Hong Na, as the Music Queen, is strongly rooted while Chen Xiaoyan and Y have no foundation, and my actions are reckless?”

Little Wu unwittingly nodded.

“China’s Top Voice thinks the same too. See the predicament are they in now?”

Chairman Ding paused for a moment after his question, then continued, “Although Y had only written four songs. Out of the four, I see limitless potential. He’s like a treasure trove, one that can shake up the entire world of music!”

Little Wu heaved a deep breath. That was the first time he heard the chairman praise someone like that. “He’s that amazing?”

Chairman Ding nodded seriously and continued, “Consider carefully. Under what circumstances did Y write his songs?!”

Little Wu went silent, but his mind was going through a storm, with a growing sense of shock the more he thought about it.

After the reminder, he finally realized. Apart from the first song being written for Chen Xiaoyan with unclear reasons, the other three were all Y’s response towards Hong Na’s provocations!

Furthermore, they were all out of whim, and the songs were all targeted!

Genius!

A terrifying genius!

If Y were to fully focus on producing his works, his musical achievements would be terrifying!

“Now you get it!” Chairman Ding’s eyes glowed. “Chen Xiaoyan’s rise to fame is not by chance. At the root of it, it’s because of Y!”

“That also means that Y can create stars!” Little Wu’s voice was trembling, then continued, “As long as Y is willing, he might just create countless masterpieces!”

“Hehe, that’s not all.” Chairman Ding smiled with a profound look on his face, saying slyly, “Now with the rise of so many Ys, each of them amazing in their own right with great talents! Regardless of it being a coincidence or intentional, we need to play it safe and try not to cross any of them.”

Little Wu finally had a moment of enlightenment, experience counts!1

Right then, his eyes popped wide open and his face flushed red, shouting excitedly, “Chairman, Y has liked our statement!”

That like was undoubtedly Y’s response to the Capital TV channel.

It was to dissolve the misunderstanding between both parties.

Chairman Ding laughed excitedly, knowing that he placed the right bet!

At the same time, the news of Singer Y’s1 like on Capital TV channel’s status garnered wide attention from the public.

[F*ck! Y liked Capital TV channel’s status!]

[Hahaha, China’s Top Voice is done for, and so is Hong Na! That is quite a bold move from Capital TV channel.]

[Is this an attempt to get closer to Y? I look forward to Y’s appearance on Capital TV channel in the future!]

[Y, when will you show yourself? I want to hear more of your songs.]

As for Hong Na, she was losing her temper on Weibo, criticizing Capital TV channel for burning bridges, showing a lack of mercy, looking down on aged celebrities, and even putting profits before all.

Of course, they were lost in the sea of comments of netizens.

After giving Capital TV channel a like, Ye Lingchen logged out of Weibo.

The incident had nothing to do with the Capital TV channel. Furthermore, they have shown their sincerity, which deserved a response. After all, Ye Lingchen still needed to collect popularity. It was unwise to sour his relationship with them.

In his free time, Ye Lingchen pulled up the system menu.

During this time, his Singer Y identity gained the most traction. He first wrote Boundless Sea and Sky for Chen Xiaoyan on China’s Top Voice, then followed by Light Years Away.

Both the songs were quite the hit. Following that, due to Hong Na’s troublesome behavior, it pushed this incident to its climax, where he wrote Some People and in turn gained a tremendous amount of popularity points.

From 70,000, it shot straight to 223,698!

He would not have noticed if he did not take a look. The rate it increased surprised even Ye Lingchen himself.

However, that was understandable. The quality of the songs was of no question. Add to it the incident with China’s Top Voice which brought them the attention of the audience, it was equivalent to a massive advertising campaign. It made sense for the big jump in popularity points.

Apart from music, Ye Lingchen had also written Celestial Bane. Although Celestial Bane was still in the new title phase, it was already beginning to gain traction. That had surely got him several popularity points, just not as obvious as Singer Y’s identity.

It would seem that he still needed to stir things up to gain more popularity points quickly!

Over 200 thousand popularity points, that was sufficient for two skills to go through basic advancement!

Ye Lingchen gave it some thought but finally decided to continue saving his popularity points.

As of then, he had already mastered enough skills and had little need for basic advancement for his skills. He might as well collect more popularity points and wait for the intermediate skill advancement when he reaches one million popularity points!

If basic skills were already that amazing, Ye Lingchen was curious as to what intermediate skills would look like.

Take Parkour for example. If that had reached the intermediate level, he estimated that he might be able to fly if he was caught in another fire. As for the Dog Language, he would then be able to communicate directly with Little Green and Little Grey. Then there were also Diatribe, Animal Training, Arhat Fist, and the rest.

‘The intermediate skills are so alluring! Just the thought of it feels great…’
