Prodigal System in the Flourishing City Chapter 400 - 398: A Resounding Slap in the Face [4th update

8:30 PM.

The logo of "The Voice of Heavenly Dynasty" appeared on the TV screen punctually.

Accompanied by music, the prerecorded MV began to play.

It mainly introduced the coaches and the rules, which isn’t necessary to elaborate on here.

The first episode of "The Voice" officially begins!

anwhile, many viewers had already gathered in front of their televisions.

Among them were Lu Hongbin, Lu Wenhuo, Lu’s father...

There were the seven calabashes of Lu Group, and the one-hundred-thousand strong Iron Cavalry of Lu Group...

There were also Principal Li, students from Emperor Electric, fans of Lu Xiaobu, fans of Sun Wanqi, fans of Chen Wen and Fang Li, and so on and so forth.

These people were supporters of Lu Xiaobu, so their watching was not unusual.

Amusedly, many viewers who were skeptical or even boycotting "The Voice" were actually sitting in front of their TVs right now.

Their remote controls had already switched to Shin TV.

Frankly speaking, they were waiting to revel in any possible mishaps.

Morbid curiosity is human nature.

That applies to them.

And it applies even more so to those in the industry opposing Lu Xiaobu.

They wanted to identify the program’s flaws and failures to better and more accurately target Lu Xiaobu!

Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated!

The attention of tens of thousands... well, the skepticism of tens of thousands.

"Here we go, it’s starting!"

"Weren’t they going to cancel it? How co it’s starting?"

"Just a rumor?"

"Let’s watch the show first; I bet the quality won’t be any good!"

"I’m curiously looking forward to it! Who will be slapping whom in the face?"

"Is Lu Xiaobu going to pull another stunt this ti?"

"I’ve got no high hopes!"

"Agree with the guy above, ’The Voice’ is just a joke!"

...

At Shin TV Station.

Yuan Xu’s production team.

With no supervisor around, the staff turned on the TV, ready to take a look at "The Voice of Heavenly Dynasty" that had taken their program’s slot.

"It’s on."

"The actual show has started."

"Why bother watching this? They’ve taken our slot, and we’re still going to watch their show?"

"Know yourself and know your enemy!"

"..."

And at this mont.

A composed-looking Yuan Xu walked over.

Everyone was startled and hurriedly stood up, awkwardly: "Um, Director Yuan, we..."

"Let’s watch together."

Yuan Xu said nothing and just sat down.

He was one of those who were there preparing to see a flop.

Seeing Yuan Xu, the staff naturally started bad-mouthing "The Voice" to curry favor with him.

"This show is definitely going to fail."

"Yeah, they had too little preparation ti; a show isn’t sothing that money alone can solve."

"Exactly! I think it’ll just be this one episode for them. Once it’s over, they can change to so other tislot. The pri ti is still ours."

Yuan Xu waved his hand dismissively, a sneer playing at his lips, he said sarcastically: "Alright, let’s not go too far, after all, we are colleagues."

The others internally scoffed – aren’t we doing this to suit you?

From your tone, it’s obvious you love hearing this!

Of course, these were also their genuine thoughts.

After all, "The Voice" had impinged upon their interests.

"..."

Each person voiced their opinions.

Just as they finished speaking, the cara had already moved to the live broadcast site!

All the lights lit up; the entire stage burst into brightness amidst the cheering of the audience, then the stage lights changed yet again!

"I want to fly high into the sky, shoulder to shoulder with the sun, the world is waiting for to change it..."

"The dreams I want to pursue, never afraid of others seeing them, here I can make them all co true!"

"Laugh out loud, shoulder to shoulder with you and , there’s no place where joy can’t be unlimited!"

"Cast aside the worries, stride forward bravely, I stand in the center of the stage!"

Chen Wen! Fang Li! Jia Yi! Sun Wanqi!

One bigger star after another, one more aweso than the last!

The judges made a stunning entrance with a new song that set the whole place on fire!

"I believe I am who I am, I believe in tomorrow, I believe that youth has no horizon, at the sunset beach, on the bustling street, they are the most beautiful paradises in my heart!"

Shin TV Station

The office area of Yuan Xu’s production team suddenly went quiet!

They all gulped down their saliva with a gurgling sound.

Layn enjoy the show, experts appreciate the technique.

They are experts, and of course, they could see just how aweso "The Voice" really is!

Just like that, all their previous predictions were crushed!

They call this no preparation?!

Damn, this preparation is way too good!

Their faces were all burning hot.

They got smacked in the face.

Especially Yuan Xu.

But still, he gritted his teeth and said, "It’s just the opening, keep watching."

Hearing his words, everyone imdiately expressed their agreent.

But in their hearts, they sighed—Director Yuan is just being stubborn as a dead duck!

...

The reaction of the other viewers was also extrely intense.

Not to ntion anything else, the opening was amazing!

"Holy cow! Is this a hundred-million-dollar stage?! For real, it’s aweso!"

"This stage, these lights! I’m sold!"

"Lu Xiaobu is still amazing! This stage and sound effects are too fantastic!"

"Listen to this song! It’s really good!"

"This song is so powerful! It’s got a bit pumped up! Who knows whose song this is? I want to download it!"

"So far, "The Voice" doesn’t seem as bad as they said!"

"The opening wasn’t bad, let’s see if it’s just an embroidered pillow."

The opening song ended!

The host ca out.

"Today, eight contestants have co to our stage. With what kind of singing will they conquer the four judges and make them turn around?"

A standard introduction, nothing surprising.

"Now, let’s take a break for so comrcials."

Upon hearing the host’s words, the viewers in front of their TVs imdiately rolled their eyes.

Comrcials, always comrcials, the most annoying thing about watching TV is the comrcials.

Many were ready to change the channel.

After all, they weren’t very optimistic about "The Voice" in the first place.

Now with the additional annoyance.

Naturally, they felt like changing the channel.

Of course, what they thought was to change the channel now and change it back later.

But in reality, how many of them would actually switch back?

And at that mont.

Just as their fingers were about to press the remote control.

"Uh, thank you to all Lu Group’s products for their strong support of our program! After these words from our advertisers, the show officially starts!" the host left the stage.

Uh, that’s it, the comrcial is over.

So short!

This was arranged by Young Master Bu, saying a nod was as good as a wink.

If it wasn’t for the fact that it wasn’t good to have personal nas in advertising, Young Master Bu’s original intention was to just have his own na suffice.

"Pfft!"

After the advertisent, all the viewers spat out their drinks.

Their only expression was a mix of laughter and helplessness.

Which advertiser doesn’t want their ads to be as long and detailed as possible?

Isn’t every talent show advertisent on the market, aside from the na, supposed to co with a couple of catchphrases?

Now what?

Just all Lu Group’s products?!

Less than three seconds.

You invest so much, easily a hundred million, and in the end, you only get these three seconds?!

Lu Xiaobu, aren’t you aweso already?

You’ve successfully stopped us from changing the channel!

Amidst everyone’s laughter and helplessness, the first contestant took to the stage!

The truly exciting part of the show has begun!
