Chapter 600: 600 Taking You to a Good Place
Chapter 600: Taking You to a Good Place
“`
A certain mysterious region.
The person behind the Mei Family watched An Nuonuo on the television with fervent eyes.
He took out his cell phone and dialed a number.
A slightly hoarse voice transmitted, “Cast five hundred million votes for An Nuonuo, transfer the funds from an overseas account.”
“Understood.”
…
After the voting channels for other contestants opened, the increase was in tens or hundreds of votes at most.
However, when An Nuonuo’s voting channel was activated, the increase was by hundreds of thousands at a time.
This wasn’t the kind of online voting where one click equals one vote, but real hard cash.
One vote cost one dollar!
Many media journalists focused specifically on this vote count.
With each refresh, the numbers surged dramatically, leaving them all with hearts racing.
“As expected of the great school beauty An, truly awesome!”
“Holy shit, starting off with a lead that leaves everyone in the dust!”
“Two and a half minutes, and the vote has reached over five million!”
“I bow down to her!”
…
Jiang Xu looked at An Nuonuo’s vote count, showing little surprise.
With her capabilities, it was only to be expected.
The audience on site, one after another, bowed their heads fiddling with their phones, casting votes for their favorite contestants.
On the stage, all the contestants came up again.
In the end, there would be a grand chorus.
An Nuonuo naturally took the central position, with Zhou Qingyue on her left, and Wang Xiaoyuan on her right.
Of course, Wang Xiaoyuan could stand there only because of An Nuonuo.
Wang Xiaoyuan was overwhelmed with excitement.
Who would’ve thought, I would one day be on such a stage.
I’ve made it.
Jiang Xu had only cast one million votes for Wang Xiaoyuan.
An Nuonuo didn’t need any, as she was sure to win without his help, so there was no need to give the Mei Family more money.
“Aaah, look, the vote count suddenly increased by five hundred million, a big shot has made a move!”
Suddenly, someone cried out, and everyone boiled with excitement.
Jiang Xu refreshed the page.
Sure enough, the count had jumped to five hundred and ten million!
In the Explosive Realm, this was indeed explosive.
Five hundred million, just thrown in like that, what a fortune they must have.
Even Jiang Xu was taken aback, wondering who could make such a grand gesture.
“Is it ‘that person’?” Jiang Xu frowned.
He wasn’t sure.
But whoever could drop such a hefty sum in an instant had to be coveting his fiancée; of this, Jiang Xu was a hundred percent certain.
The clamor from below reached the stage, and naturally, everyone heard it.
They looked at An Nuonuo with envious eyes.
Then, as if on cue, they turned their gazes towards Jiang Xu.
In their minds, it was certainly Jiang Xu, the tycoon with a hundred billion fortune, who had cast the money to support his girlfriend.
Zhou Qingyue couldn’t even muster jealousy now.
The gap between people was just too unreasonable.
She sang earnestly, her mind set on a resolution.
Starting today, she would not actively contact Jiang Xu for a whole year.
She would devote all her energy to acting, starting a company, making money, and studying.
In one year, she aimed to transform herself completely, inside and out!
The ‘five hundred million votes’ set off a storm on the internet.
Countless media outlets scrambled to report it.
Many thought it was Jiang Xu’s doing.
“`
He immediately released a statement, saying it had nothing to do with him.
Yeah, he also took advantage of his fiancée’s popularity.
In a very short time, related topics, discussions, and traffic surpassed a hundred million.
And they were still growing at a terrifying speed.
Zhou Qingyue was in second place, now just over eight million.
But the first place, An Nuonuo, had already reached 502 million!
It was estimated that no one could surpass this number after the semifinals ended.
On stage, a group song came to an end.
The host went onto the stage, excitedly saying, “Now, please let us sing another one!”
Normally, voting would close after the singing ended.
But seeing An Nuonuo’s incredible popularity and the crazy voting, how could the organizers bear to end it so quickly?
Dragging it out for even a minute was worth several hundred thousand, even a million in revenue.
Jiang Xu didn’t object either.
After all, he would get a portion of that money in the end.
And there was no way to cheat.
Because the number of votes each person had online was clear at a glance, and with simple addition and subtraction, the total amount could be calculated.
The organizing committee made a crazy decision to choose a twelve-minute medley.
Halfway through the singing, Jiang Xu couldn’t care about being conspicuous anymore.
He grabbed a bottle of mineral water and went onstage, opened the lid, and let An Nuonuo take a sip to moisten her throat.
“What if my wife’s throat is ruined after singing so many songs?”
“Wow!”
The audience erupted into cheers and whistles.
“Wow, that’s just too sweet.”
“What a considerate boyfriend, ah, I can’t take it!”
“I want a boyfriend like that too, two would be fine!”
…
An Nuonuo’s face blushed with shyness, but her eyes never left Jiang Xu, sweetness off the charts.
Zhou Qingyue concentrated on singing and was unfazed by external distractions.
Love?
She had temporarily given it up, making money was the real deal!
After the song ended, the voting finally closed.
On the big screen, ten names appeared.
First was An Nuonuo, Zhou Qingyue…
An Nuonuo at the very top, with 530,586,986 votes, firmly held the lead.
And second place Zhou Qingyue had just passed thirty million votes.
The third place was even more pitiful, with only three million, and the ones following were not even worth looking at.
“Deep City’s semifinal top ten have been decided,” the host said with great excitement: “Here, let us congratulate Miss An Nuonuo for securing first place in the Deep City semifinals.
In the final, she will have two revival chances!”
This revival chance was of no use to An Nuonuo since she didn’t need it.
“I have something to say.” At this point, Jiang Xu went onstage and took the microphone handed over by An Nuonuo: “I propose that this revival chance can be transferred.
After all, my baby doesn’t need it, so the reward is superfluous for her.”
One mention of “baby” and An Nuonuo’s face turned red again, while laughter erupted from the audience.
“This…” the host hesitated: “I can’t decide on that, please wait. I’ll ask for instructions.”
The host left the stage and returned after a while to announce: “The organizers have agreed.”
The competition ended, and it would be a month before the finals since there were still three other regions to go through.
Without lingering there any longer, Jiang Xu said goodbye to Wang Xiaoyuan and then took An Nuonuo back to Magic City.
The finals were also being held in Magic City, which would be more convenient when the time came.
“Brother Xu, what are we going to do next, in such a hurry?” An Nuonuo curiously asked as Jiang Xu held her hand.
Jiang Xu smiled and said, “I’m taking you to a nice place.”
