The ten CDs were handed over to the major planners and songwriters at ES Entertainment Company, and after a day of deliberation, six CDs were finalized.

Among the six CDs, two were noted.

One was from the newly rising pop star of ES, Jian Chenxi.

The other was from an unknown singer, Ling Momo.

Among the chosen six, the most stunning was Ling Momo’s track, with a clean sound that made people close their eyes, as if they could approach the purest world.

When Ling Momo’s voice was played, Director Wang Yi was the first to slam the table and say, "That’s the feeling we’re looking for!"

However, fortunately, this was just part of the audition. Since it was about creating a single, the sound quality was just one part; there was also the need for stage presence, explosiveness, and appearance to consider.

Moreover, it needed to be packaged and sold in the later stages.

In this materially abundant age, pure sound quality could no longer hold absolute market power.

Everyone knew how risky it was to promote a newcomer, yet a movie’s theme song could make a pop star famous, and a pop star could provide significant advertisement for a movie.

So, even though Ling Momo’s voice fit the movie’s vibe, Director Wang Yi, though satisfied, still had to follow the process. What followed naturally was a performance showdown on the ES Music Entertainment Company stage among the six contenders.

Among the six chosen, only Jian Chenxi and Ling Momo were signed singers with SE.

And Ling Momo had been signed with SE Music Entertainment Company for almost a month but had always been wandering at the bottom level, unlike Jian Chenxi, who was already quite renowned when she first entered SE Music Entertainment Company.

The two had vastly different statuses.

One was a little queen, the other unknown.

So, even though they were in the same company, they had never met.

This time, however, they both became candidates for the new mythical song and formally met for the first time in the office of SE production director Li Dao.

When Ling Momo arrived at the door of Li Dao’s office, Li Dao was attentively handing tea to Jian Chenxi.

Jian Chenxi, having some beauty, was also a popular female singer, and even though Li Dao was the SE production director, he had to show her some courtesy.

Jian Chenxi wore an oval smile on her face, rosy and fair, her eyes blinking with a bit of allure, and she reached out with both hands to take the tea from Li Dao, saying, "Thanks!"

Li Dao took the opportunity to gently touch Jian Chenxi’s slender jade hands twice, and Jian Chenxi did not shy away either. Being in this circle, flattering as it might sound to call her a female pop star, less flatteringly, she was just an entertainer. No matter how glamorous she was, her fate was still in these people’s hands.

Seeing Jian Chenxi wasn’t backing off, Li Dao grew bolder, squeezed himself close to Jian Chenxi on the sofa, his arm wrapping around her waist, whispering something in her ear, prompting Jian Chenxi to half-heartedly push back, her ample chest brushing against Li Dao’s arm as she coquettishly spoke, "Mr. Li, you’re so annoying!"

"Annoying?" he chuckled lowly, saying, "You left your jade earrings with me; do you want to come collect them tonight?"

Li Dao’s words were anything but subtle.

The jade earrings were a pretext, and tonight’s passion was the truth.

Jian Chenxi giggled, turned her head to respond, but then noticed Ling Momo standing at the door, and was momentarily stunned.

Ling Momo, however, remained calm, fully aware of who Jian Chenxi was.
