My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 332

On the next day, Ning Ran sent the kids to school and got a call from Wang Xiaoou on her way back asking her to go to the agency.

Nothing else was mentioned on the call, causing Ning Ran to feel a bit nervous. Did I do something wrong that caused the agency a lot of trouble?

However, when Ning Ran reached Star Entertainment, nothing seemed to be out of the ordinary, even Wang Xiaoou looked normal too.

At that instant, Ning Ran was relieved.

“You have a job tonight. You’re going to be in Flower City TV studio’s show. Get ready for it. We’ll leave for the studio in a bit.” Wang Xiaoou informed.

“Huh?” Ning Ran was stunned. “Right now?”

“Yes, right now. It was supposed to be next week but one of the stars they invited had to cancel so they asked if you could sub in. We thought about it and it looked like there’s enough time so we accepted it.” Wang Xiaoou explained.

“What do you mean there’s enough time? I’m not even ready.”

“The show goes live at eight tonight. We’re still far from noon. How is a whole day not enough time for prep?” Wang Xiaoou raised an eyebrow.

“For anyone else maybe. But definitely not for me. I’ve never been on live television before! I’m scared!” Ning Ran exclaimed.

“What are you scared of? Just leave everything to us. Don’t worry!”

“What’s the show about? What do I need to do?”

“There will be some games and you will be doing a performance. Do you sing or dance? Or do you have any acting-related talents?” Wang Xiaoou asked Ning Ran.

“None!”

“Singing it is then.” Wang Xiaoou remarked.

“What?”

“If you don’t have any special talents, singing would be the easier choice. It’s not your main profession anyway, so just sing whatever song you like. No one will say anything even if you’re bad.” Wang Xiaoou casually explained.

“But my singing’s really bad! It’s straight-up awful!” Ning Ran emphasized.

“It’ll be fine. Mr. Chen said you sound alright.” Wang Xiaoou replied.

“What? He said that?”

“That’s what he told the higher-ups. So everyone thinks you definitely know how to sing. Mr. Chen has high standards, and if he said you’re alright, then you’re definitely alright.” Wang Xiaoou looked at Ning Ran with a serious face.

“Well, if that’s the case, I’m sad to say that you’ve been duped by him. I’ve never actually sung in front of him before.” Ning Ran said with a bitter face.

“Let’s just prepare for now. Why don’t you go and record a song and we can do some post-production and tune your pitch? On the live broadcast, all you need to do is just lip-sync to the produced track. Even if you mess up, things will be alright.” Wang Xiaoou said.

“Huh? You can do that?” Ning Ran was surprised.

“You don’t have to be that surprised. This is the norm. Do you really think every superstar can sing live? Their performance was auto-tuned as well. Just get used to it. That’s how things work in this industry”.

“But what if the audience sees through the act? What happens then?”

“They won’t. How would they? Oh! By the way, when you sing with the microphone, hold it higher so that it covers your mouth. That makes it less obvious whenever the shape of your mouth doesn’t sync with the song. It’s usually fine so don’t worry about it. If anything actually happens, we’ll deal with it then. So just have some fun.” Wang Xiaoou spoke very confidently.

“Fine. I really hope I won’t mess things up.” Ning Ran was still concerned.
