The champion has been decided

  Country A, City C.

  DBC TV station, rehearsal hall.

  A group of young girls wearing tight-fitting clothes were doing physical training, the girls all had light makeup or even no makeup at all, and they all had beautiful faces and slender figures.

  They were all contestants in the "Miss New Century" beauty pageant.

  "New Century Miss" is co-organized by DBC TV and Ding Sheng Agency, which recruited contestants from all over the country a month ago, but only thirty people are left standing here.

  They will be divided into winners and losers a week later, at which time DBC TV will broadcast live throughout the competition. The champion will receive a prize of 500,000 yuan provided by the organizer and can also sign an artist contract with Ding Sheng Entertainment Company to enter the entertainment circle. Such a big reward naturally makes the girls' hearts flutter.

  Ni Pei Yi is one of them. But her goal is not the entertainment circle, but the prize money.

  This month, she trained with others, and the TV station advertised for them every day, occasionally playing training and interview clips, and outsiders have already started arguing about who should be the champion.

  Ní Pèi Yī has been dancing since she was a child and is now a freshman at the Dance Academy. Her figure and temperament are naturally excellent, which have been cultivated since childhood; her appearance is also surprisingly good - a gentle and classic oval face, delicate and fair skin, eyes like autumn water ripples, making people fall in love at first sight and become infatuated with her. Except for some of the contestants who trained together, most people think she should win the championship.

  She thinks so too.

  Suddenly, the door of the rehearsal hall opened and a girl wearing a gray coat and chewing gum walked in.

  Pei Yi turned around and stopped with the crowd. The girl was also one of their candidates, originally not bad, but recently often absent, or late, early leave, Pei Yi estimated she had no hope to enter the top ten.

  The girl glanced at the crowd of people training, looked down on them with a sense of pride and disdain, and went to the locker room to change her clothes.

  The coach said: "Everyone take a break." Then glanced at Pei Yi and sighed helplessly.

  Ni Pei's eyes rolled over, what was this expression? What did she have to sigh about?

  At this time, a contestant next to her snorted in dissatisfaction: "What's with the show-off? Does she think she's already the champion?"

  Another person said: "They've got the biggest sponsor backing them, of course..."

  Pei Yi was startled and stared at them fiercely.

  They also looked at her, one by one, and said with a tone of schadenfreude: "What? Do you think there's really such a thing as fairness? Your conditions are good, but you don't know how to be a person! Do you understand the unwritten rules? The top three must have been fixed in advance! You didn't give those people any face at all, and it's unlikely you'll even make the top ten..."

  Out of the top ten, there is only one gift for participating. Of course, it's still possible to sign with an agency, but popularity has clearly been lost, and the road ahead will be difficult to walk.

  Pei's whole body felt cold, how could this be? She had been feeling that something was off for a while now. Recently, several contestants were often absent, and she even saw luxury cars picking them up at the TV station entrance. That's right, there were several times when sponsors invited them to dinner, but she didn't have time to go, so she declined all of them...

  So it was like this! It was like this!

  Then what should she do? Her conditions in all aspects are obviously the best. Should she give up the championship to others?!

  She looked at the two girls, wanting to refute them, but moved her mouth and couldn't make a sound. She was reading at the Dance Academy, where students often walked out and were viewed with colored glasses because... there were too many shady things inside! What else didn't she understand?

  After training ended, Pei Yi changed her clothes and left in a daze. As she walked to the elevator, a TV station staff member ran over: "Miss Ni, wait! Wait!"

  Pei turned around and saw a thin little man running over. The man pointed back: "Someone is looking for you, waiting in the dressing room."

  Pei stared at him, stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but think of their previous conversation. Then she resolutely walked towards the dressing room.

  A man in a suit and tie sat in the dressing room, leisurely smoking in front of the mirror. When he found her coming in, he extinguished the cigarette butt and turned to look at her.
