Boiling stage

Yao Beiguo was stunned for a moment; he hadn't expected Zhang Lan to agree so quickly, but he soon collected himself.

"Then thank you very much, Miss Zhang Lan."

"General Manager Yao, you are too polite. We are all employees of the Mingri Group; helping you is the same as helping the Mingri Group."

"Hahaha, Miss Zhang Lan is right. In the future, if Miss Zhang Lan encounters any issues, feel free to come to me, Yao Beiguo, for help."

Yao Beiguo laughed heartily.

"I'll keep that in mind. If there are no issues with my rehearsal here, I'll head back first."

Zhang Lan said slowly.

After she finished singing this song tomorrow, she would start preparing to compose a new one. The previous song had received a good response, but its ranking on the New Song Chart had barely reached 46th place before it stopped moving.

Being able to enter the top 100 of the New Song Chart was already considered a good song.

However, she wasn't satisfied with just a "good song."

She wanted to compose a song that could rival those songs by General Manager Chen.

She knew this was very difficult, but she believed that as long as she worked hard and made some progress with every song she composed, sooner or later, she would create a song that could rival those by General Manager Chen.

…

Inside the stadium, Yao Beiguo watched Zhang Lan leave before turning and walking toward other areas.

Tomorrow was the final, and he needed to reconfirm the final details to ensure there wouldn't be any problems when the final started tomorrow.

"General Manager Yao, you're here."

Zhou Mei looked at Yao Beiguo as he hurried over.

"Hmm, how are the arrangements going on your end?"

Yao Beiguo nodded, looking at Zhou Mei and the people behind her.

"General Manager Yao, everything has been arranged. Tomorrow, before the spectators enter the stadium, they will change into their cosplay outfits and stand at the positions arranged today."

Zhou Mei replied quickly.

"That's good. Thank you all for your hard work today."

Hearing this, Yao Beiguo breathed a sigh of relief. Everything that could boost the atmosphere of the event had been confirmed to be in order.

Next, he needed to confirm some hardware facility issues, such as computers, internet, and so on.

However, these hardware issues could be handled by arranging for people from the club to confirm them, and their club's computers generally wouldn't have any major problems.

…

The next day, 6:00 PM.

At Jiangcheng Stadium, the crowd had already lined up outside the stadium and was slowly moving inside.

Just as they walked into the stadium, they saw several young ladies in cosplay at the entrance, handing out small props for watching the match, such as glow sticks.

Those young ladies in cosplay instantly attracted a lot of attention.

"Damn, this competition is pretty good. You can even see young ladies in cosplay while watching the match."

"Not bad, it wasn't a wasted trip. These young ladies in cosplay are quite pleasing to the eyes."

"The characters cosplayed here are all from Tianlong and Extreme Survival. It's really great, they look so good."

"I wonder if I can get their contact information or something."

"Nice, the organizers are really great. There are actually so many young ladies in cosplay."

"…"

The crowd quickly entered the stadium, though some people's eyes remained fixed on the young ladies in cosplay.

Soon, as everyone entered the stadium, a host quickly walked onto the stage set up in front of the stadium, which was also the place where the various teams would compete later.

The host took the microphone, looked at the crowd filling the stadium, and spoke slowly.

"Welcome everyone to the final of [Extreme Survival]. After three days of elimination rounds, 30 teams have been selected for the finals. The thirty teams are divided into three groups: A, B, and C, with 10 teams in each group. As for the other competition rules, they are the same as the elimination rounds. The only difference is that in this competition, there is prize money for each stage, and this time, the prize pool for the event is 20 million."

"At the same time, today's match will be broadcast live across the entire internet."

"But before the event starts, let's first enjoy the singing performance brought to us by Zhang Lan."

As the host finished speaking, he quickly walked off the stage.

Immediately after, a cloud of smoke appeared on the stage, and in the hazy smoke, a figure slowly walked out.

The smoke gradually dissipated, and a woman wearing a combat uniform slowly revealed her figure.

The woman held the microphone and spoke with a smile.

"Hello everyone, I am Zhang Lan."

In the stadium stands, all eyes were focused on the figure on the stage.

Meanwhile, in the Livestream room.

[Damn, is that Zhang Lan? Is this my first time seeing her in person?]

[Did I hear that right? Zhang Lan, isn't that the singer who sang ten years?]

[It really is her! I've read her profile; I love her songs so much. If I had known that watching the game match would include Zhang Lan singing on stage, I would have gone too.]

[Missed out, missed out. I envy those who went to watch the match in person.]

[What songs is she going to sing today? She should sing invisible wings, ten years, and later, right? I love listening to all three of these songs!]

[…]

On stage, Zhang Lan began to sing the first song of the day.

[invisible wings]

Following that were the second and third songs. [ten years] [later]

After these three songs were finished, the entire stadium scene instantly heated up. Many people waved the glow sticks in their hands and shouted loudly.

"Zhang Lan, Zhang Lan."

"One more song!"

"…"

Backstage at the stadium, Yao Beiguo and Tao Ze looked at the big screen, watching the reaction of the stage and the audience, and smiled slightly.

"General Manager Yao, it seems that the decision to invite Zhang Lan to sing was excellent. Just the opening alone has directly livened up the atmosphere of the competition."

"Hmm, but I still have to thank General Manager Wei for his guidance; otherwise, I wouldn't have thought of these things."

Yao Beiguo sighed with emotion.

"That's true. General Manager Wei is worthy of being the person most valued by General Manager Chen."

Tao Ze nodded in agreement.

On the stadium stage, after the third song was finished, Zhang Lan held the microphone and looked at the cheering crowd in the stadium, her eyes looking a bit dazed.

She suddenly had a feeling: was she holding a concert?

Wasn't this the scene from her dreams?

Standing under the stage lights, listening to the audience cheering because of her singing.

Zhang Lan smiled slightly, but quickly came back to her senses.

Looking at the cheering and enthusiastic audience, she said slowly, "Thank you all for your love. I have already sung three songs today. Next, I have a new song to share with you all. I hope you like it."

After speaking, she returned to the center of the stage.

…

Changbai Jingyuan.

Chen Mo sat on the sofa, watching the live broadcast of the [Extreme Survival] event on his computer, his brows knitting together involuntarily.

He hadn't expected that the opening of this competition would actually include a singing segment by Zhang Lan.

After singing three songs, she was going to sing a new song.

Chen Mo quickly thought of the songs he had given to Zhang Lan, and a bad premonition couldn't help but rise in his heart.
