She became a heartthrob among internet celebrities.

After the meeting ended, only two people remained in the large conference room.

Ye Kongxing casually put his feet on the table. "I'm exhausted. These old bastards are all shrewd; they won't give up even the slightest bit of benefit!"

Fu Changyuan: "You'll get used to it. These people won't do anything without a profit."

"Hey, I've reached an agreement with them for now, but how things develop from here on out depends on how you handle it. So, can I just back out now?"

"Are you in a hurry?" Fu Changyuan asked.

"Putting everything else aside, it's a bit boring. Don't I still have a lot of things waiting for me back in Yuanyang?" Ye Kongxing pulled his foot back and tentatively asked, "Can I go back now?"

Fu Changyuan nodded slightly, "Okay, but first give me a report on the subsequent work process."

"Alright, I'll use this luxurious conference room of yours to explain the next phase of Yuanyang's plans."

Ye Kongxing stood up, inserted the USB drive into the computer, and a detailed PowerPoint presentation appeared on the screen.

"First, we've revamped the app, integrating and optimizing existing functions, removing cumbersome operations, and combining them with other similar software on the market. We plan to add some new features, and we've already selected a group of users for internal testing, with positive feedback..."

"Then there's the Rising Star Support Program. Based on the idea you proposed earlier, Mr. Fu, we've already established a dedicated department to discover, cultivate, and support promising streamers, and we're trying to get some individual streamers to sign contracts with our platform. The project is still in its early stages. To put it simply, we're still recruiting people."

"The most important thing is Yuanyang's sixth anniversary event. You wouldn't let me hold it for the fifth anniversary last year, but I'm going to have a grand celebration for the sixth anniversary! In addition to our company's internal anniversary events, I've also asked the planning department to prepare an offline meet-and-greet."

"The initial plan for this meet-and-greet is to invite streamers with a large number of fans on the platform who produce excellent content. There are no restrictions on whether they are individual streamers or guilds."

"At the same time, we will take this opportunity to contact some streamers in advance to see if there is an opportunity to sign contracts."

……

Ye Kongxing told Fu Changyuan all his ideas, and the two discussed them for a long time in the conference room, finally finalizing all the basic details.

-

It was another Friday, and Shen Yi accompanied her to the Thunderfire Studio.

The person in charge, Brother Zhang, seemed very busy today. He handed them over to another staff member and then hurriedly left.

"Senior, is something wrong? If you're busy too, you can go ahead. I can manage on my own."

Shen Yi hesitated for a moment, "Then come find me if you need anything?"

"no problem."

Shen Yi asked the staff to take care of Jiang Lai before leaving the recording studio.

The staff member smiled at Jiang Lai: "Brother Zhang told me about you. Your name is Jiang Lai, right? Your boyfriend is quite thoughtful!"

“That’s a friend,” Jiang Lai corrected.

"I understand, I understand, it's so good to be young!" the staff member sighed, then touched his thinning hair. "There are two main roles for which you need to provide voice-overs. Take a look at the information."

He handed over a document.

Jiang Lai opened it; inside were original character drawings, designs, lines, and the like.

"An art book?" Jiang Lai said, "A loli and a teenage girl?"

"Yes, take a look at their character designs! Try to match them to the characters as much as possible."

Jiang Lai looked at the loli in the character design book. She had long pink hair tied into twin ponytails with a big bow on her head, and she was wearing a brown maid outfit. This was her non-combat state.

"Lydia is working hard today for you, my dearest one!"

To her right is a picture of her gripping a single-edged sword tightly with both hands, her hair flying in the wind, and her round face full of a resolute expression.

"Take one last look at this moonlight, as sharp as a blade! For you are about to become a soul beneath my blade!"

Lydia, age 16, a cute and cheerful junior student, and a popular idol. Combat style: One-on-one.

When acting as the squad leader, you can trigger the "Pacify" effect, which provides a melee damage reduction bonus to all team members...

The other girl who needed Jiang Lai to do the voice acting looked much gentler.

Vivian, age 17, a gentle and considerate classmate. Combat method: chanting.

A mage? Jiang Lai wondered to herself.

The girl in the picture has long white hair and is wearing a Japanese-style school uniform skirt.

Her attack requires charging, and the two attacks after charging can deal a lot of damage. Surprisingly, she doesn't have any healing skills.

"You look very tired. Why don't you get some rest? Put things aside and get some sleep. I'll stay with you."

"Moonlight above, grant me your power! Let it be the sword in my hand, the spear in my hand, the hope that will help me shatter all obstacles!"

Okay, so cringeworthy!! But those who like it will probably really like it? This kind of girl group fighting monsters format should appeal to a lot of boys.

Jiang Lai looked at the parts she needed to voice. Apart from the spells and slogans during battles, there were also some everyday lines that needed to be voiced.

"How is it? Is there a problem?" the staff member asked.

Jiang Lai shook her head. "No." This was even simpler than dubbing a radio drama, and she was no longer the clueless dubbing novice she once was.

"Okay, let's wait outside the recording studio. There are people doing voice-over work inside right now."

"Really? What will she be paired with?" Jiang Lai was a little curious as this was the first time she had encountered a voice actor other than Lingyin.

"Paired with Eileen, a mature and sophisticated woman, hehehe!"

"really not bad!"

She followed the staff outside the recording studio, just as the people inside finished their work and came out.

"Let's go in!" the staff member said to Jiang Lai.

“Okay, no problem.” Jiang Lai nodded amicably to the woman in front of her and then entered the recording studio.

The woman, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong, Ms. Jinse?" a staff member asked.

"I suddenly realized that I think I left my things at the recording studio."

"Huh? But they just went in to do voice acting?"

"It's okay, I'll wait a bit. You go ahead and do your work! I'll leave as soon as I get my things, no need to see me off."

“It’s alright, I’ll go with you.” The staff member insisted on accompanying her inside.

Jinse had no choice but to go into the recording studio with him again.

When the staff at the recording studio saw Jinse come in again, they asked, "What happened?"

"Teacher Jinse said something was left behind."

"What is it?"

Jinse didn't know what to say for a moment, then suddenly had an idea and said, "Bracelet."

"It doesn't seem to be here. Maybe it's inside? Well, there's nothing we can do about it. Let's wait until we finish the dubbing here and then go back in to look for it."

Jinse was easy to talk to, saying, "It's alright, you guys go ahead with your work, I'm not in a hurry."

The staff were very touched and asked Jinse to sit down and wait.

In the recording studio, Jiang Lai was recording her lines, holding her script.

Jinse had just heard Jiang Lai's original voice, which already sounded somewhat familiar, but now that she heard Jiang Lai's dubbing, that feeling of familiarity became even stronger.

Looking at the person in the glass room, she couldn't help but ask, "Is this young girl from your studio?"

The staff member casually replied, "No, it's a college student that our project leader selected from outside."

"Oh, I see. What's her name?"

"I think her name is Jiang Lai?"

"The 'lai' in 'lai qu' (来去, meaning 'to come and go')? Or which character?" Jinse asked anxiously.

The staff member gave her a strange look and said, "I didn't notice."

Which university did she attend?

"Probably from Beijing University! We used to say that it was quite novel for a top student to do voice acting."

His name contains the character "lai," he's a student at Imperial University, and his voice sounds so similar and familiar.

Jinse was almost 80% certain that the girl in front of her was "Lai, not Lai," who had stolen her role as Shaoyin and successfully joined Lingyin.

What a coincidence! Jinse couldn't help but think.

She actually had no connection with Jiang Lai; the only thing that connected them was the character Shao Yin. She knew her voice wasn't suitable for Shao Yin, but at the time she didn't want to lose the opportunity to voice Shao Yin, as it would significantly boost her fame.

Doesn't Jiang Lai's current situation perfectly illustrate this point? Her fan base has grown considerably.

Jinse wasn't entirely resigned to the situation, so she complained to her loyal fans, who then rushed off to find Jiang Lai. Jinse, feeling smug, didn't bother to restrain her fans. However, to her surprise, Jiang Lai seemed quite unfazed by the situation and wasn't affected at all.

She's just a young girl who just started college, but she's quite patient.

Jinse couldn't quite articulate her feelings towards Jiang Lai, but it was true that she often paid attention to her.

She envied that she was a student at a prestigious university and had a happy and enviable college life. She was also jealous that she was able to get a popular role as soon as she started voice acting, get in touch with well-known studios, and even have close relationships with many voice acting masters in the industry.

And what about her? Jinse started live streaming after graduating from an ordinary university. She became popular for a while because of her good voice and appearance, but that was all. However, she was still much better off than many others.

If she hadn't seen Jiang Lai's true appearance, she could have convinced herself that she wasn't much different from Jiang Lai. After all, a little girl who didn't even show her face wasn't much of a threat. Didn't they say that nine out of ten people with nice voices are fat? Maybe she was one of them?

But now, Jinse has to admit that her proud appearance is nothing compared to the girl in front of her.

You can tell by the admiring and praising looks from those around you.

The girl earnestly doing voice acting in the recording studio was really beautiful, and it was the kind of beauty that made you feel no sense of disrespect when you looked at her.

Jinse couldn't help but wonder, why are some people born with such good luck? The amount of effort she has put in to get to where she is now is unimaginable to ordinary people. Facing Jiang Lai, it's really hard for her not to feel jealous. Another thing is that she's worried about competing with her.

Jinse has connections with high-level people on Douyin, which has provided her with a lot of convenience in her development.

She recently learned from higher-ups that Douyin platform is about to undergo a major reform. She doesn't care about the various measures, but the only one she cares about is the "support plan for platform anchors".

Although Jiang Lai doesn't do many live streams now, and the videos she posts are of various types without a fixed direction, Jinse can foresee that if Jiang Lai decides to develop in the field of voice in the long term, she will inevitably become her formidable rival.

In the world of live streaming, top streamers have always reaped the lion's share of the profits, while the remaining scraps are shared by many smaller streamers. Jinse is doing quite well now, and with the support of higher-ups, securing a featured spot on the platform should be relatively easy, provided that no other strong competitors emerge.

"We need to find a way to subdue them," Jinse thought.

"I suddenly remembered that I should have put my bracelet away. It's okay, I'm sorry for causing you trouble. You can continue with your work, I'll be going now." She hurriedly said to the staff and then walked out of the recording studio.

The staff looked at each other, wondering what she was doing.
