Chapter 107 2/2

When it came to work, Guo Zhe immediately entered work mode. His face, which had just softened a bit, became serious again as he handed the prepared documents to Shengquan.

“Take a look.”

“The expenses for the holographic stage have also exceeded the original estimate, and I’ve approved additional funds.”

“Approve it. This stage is going to make its debut worldwide, and it’s worth every penny.”

Starshine Entertainment is extremely busy, and it’s not just about cultivating a few idols.

This is the first appearance of holographic technology on the entertainment stage, and Starshine is not confining itself to just the domestic market.

Shengquan has acquired the skill of reading documents. Although not very fast, she reads carefully. After reading, she signs her name satisfactorily and hands the documents back.

“Now it’s time to build momentum.”

In fact, the momentum has already begun. Even before the stage has made its debut, major media outlets are already hyping it as the “largest and most eye-catching stage in the country.”

“But we don’t want the most eye-catching in the country; we want the most eye-catching in the world.”

“This time, we have control right from the start. It’s a great opportunity.”

Facing Guo Zhe, Shengquan doesn’t need to hide anything.

He has ambitions to compete internationally, and Shengquan is no less ambitious.

Sure enough, as soon as this was mentioned, Guo Zhe’s entire demeanor became spirited, and his beautiful eyes lit up slightly: “Yes, I understand.”

Starshine Entertainment’s position in the country has long been different from before.

In these past few years, Starshine has consistently followed the development strategy of “rapid development, then subtle development, then struggle again,” almost adding a few floors to its building every year.

At first glance, the speed doesn’t seem very fast, but considering that Starshine has only taken four years to leap from an unknown small company to the top of the entertainment industry in Huazhou, it indicates how terrifying Starshine’s development has been.

During these four years, in addition to stars like Jiang Zhenhua, who have reached the highest level, Starshine has continuously added strength to its core and, at the same time, trained new artists, producing a large number of high-quality films and TV shows.

Because they were not afraid of early investment and were willing to give time for artists to grow and learn, many excellent works and artists emerged. Although only two superstars like Jiang Zhenhua have emerged in these years, it’s more than enough for an entertainment industry company.

Looking at other major companies, no matter how long they’ve been standing, they always rely on a few key figures.

Whether it’s Shengquan or Guo Zhe, they understand that Starshine’s current status in the country is already high enough. The next step is to establish an international position.

This won’t happen quickly. In four years, Starshine hasn’t gained much fame globally, despite producing many hit films. People know Starshine more for their favorite artists than for Starshine itself.

But consider the decades that foreign companies have been standing tall in the industry, whether it’s nurturing superstars or having connections in various industries—they have a lot.

How could Starshine Entertainment catch up in just four years?

“But we’re young,” Shengquan joked with Guo Zhe. “We have plenty of time to slowly endure with them. So, you should pay attention to your health. As long as you don’t die young, we will definitely win.”

Whether Guo Zhe sensed the joke or not, he seriously nodded, seeming determined to carry out Shengquan’s words to the end.

Quite unexpectedly, if Starshine really relies on perseverance, they might indeed outlast those well-established international companies.

However, isn’t that what holographic technology is for?

Without seizing this opportunity quickly, Shengquan feels she’s not doing justice to Ningzhou.

“Within three months, try to get the holographic stage to appear before the world as much as possible.”

This shouldn’t be very difficult.

Although the entertainment industry in Huazhou was underdeveloped a few years ago, it hasn’t been overlooked by the global entertainment industry.

However, firstly, Starshine has been gaining visibility in recent years, and secondly, the holographic technology is exclusive worldwide.

Regardless of the country’s entertainment industry or whether they have a stage, no one will miss the opportunity to appear on the world’s first holographic stage.

Shengquan plans to use the same tactic again and create an atmosphere of everlasting attention around this stage.

No, not create—an everlasting attention is what it is.

“Holographic stage?”

In P Country, a relatively popular girl group, the members gathered together, listening to their manager analyze the stage being planned in Huazhou.

“I know Starshine Entertainment; it’s one of the top companies in Huazhou, and Jin Jiu is from their company.”

“Is the boss called Shengquan? She’s famous for being rich.”

Members shared the information they knew.

“This is the world’s first holographic stage and also the first stage to be broadcast live throughout the entire polar holographic game. Do you know what this represents?”

The manager pointed to the charts on the big screen for them to see. “Let’s not talk about how many real-life audiences there will be. Think about the number of players in the polar game.”

A staggering number appeared in front of the members, and they all widened their eyes in shock.

Shengquan didn’t remake the game but displayed the benefits of acquiring the polar game at this moment.

It takes time for a game to accumulate a large number of players. If she were to remake the game, even if it were exciting, it would still take a long time to build a mature player community.

But the polar game is different. Even if a large number of people can’t afford holographic headsets, they won’t abandon the game. Instead, they’ll continue playing the game while figuring out how to save money to buy a headset.

Usually, no matter how many players a game has, the game company can at most accept ads or guide players to spend money.

However, now the polar game has become a holographic game.

What players see in the game is basically the same as the real-world visuals, and Shengquan, who controls the entire game, is equivalent to having a large audience from around the world.

She only needs to use holographic technology to broadcast the stage’s visuals into the game. Even if many players haven’t bought tickets in real life, they can still closely admire the stage in the game.

Initially, few people noticed this, but since Shengquan announced that the stage would be broadcast inside the game, the holographic stage, which was already popular due to Starshine’s vigorous promotion, became the focus of everyone’s attention.

This includes the members of the girl group from P Country.

Who would have an issue with the audience?

Especially with so many audiences!

“Can we participate?”

The girl group members didn’t hesitate at all, looking at their manager with excitement and a bit of nervousness.

After all, this is a stage in Huazhou. If they go internationally, how many procedures do they have to go through, and will the company agree?

The manager, equally excited under the huge audience numbers, said with a flushed face, “Of course you can. Why else did they come looking for you?”

“This is an opportunity I worked hard to get for you. Starshine doesn’t accept just anyone. For our country, we only have three slots.” She didn’t forget to boast about her contribution: “Do you know how hard I worked to get this? Now, it’s not just a stage in Huazhou; it will be a stage that will appear worldwide.”

“You don’t have to win the championship or anything. As long as you can qualify and be included in the live broadcast range of the polar game, you will already be incredibly popular!”

No one had any objections to this statement.

Holographic technology, a large audience—this is the stage every idol dreams of.

Not to mention countries with many idol groups like P Country; even countries with fewer idols don’t want to miss this opportunity.

“Good, we will definitely not let the company down!”

While this girl group is preparing to rise, various countries have also started their own competition.

For a while, the holographic stage has indeed become the focus of everyone’s attention, and everyone wants a piece of the pie.

Starshine has also fallen into a dilemma.

Abroad, as long as they give out the slots, they can naturally exchange them for a lot of resources.

But domestically, who should I choose?
