Chapter 97 Cute and Sexy
Sometimes, fate is a truly wondrous thing.
Asaka thought this.
Some actors embark on a dazzling career from the very day they debut.
Some newcomers are fired by their agencies after their debut if they don't gain much fame.
But when it comes to your own turn, these rules no longer apply.
Asaka Yui stood in the ring, or rather, in the center of the stage, looking at the audience who were staring at her in a daze.
As a rising star who debuted as a singer, Asaka Yui's career path can be described as extremely bleak.
Her debut single, "Summer Girl," was lukewarm at best, and the agency's next few singles are not expected to fare much better.
Sometimes, Asaka Yui even wondered if she really wasn't cut out to be an idol.
The firm's staff told her to persevere and work hard.
One day she will shine, reach the top, and become a top idol.
Ha, that's easy for you to say.
Someday? When is that?
Maybe five years, maybe ten?
How many years does an idol's career last?
Asaka Yui thought that her career might have come to an end.
But not long ago, the firm where he worked was suddenly acquired by a game company that appeared out of nowhere.
Then, he received an invitation from his superior, Lin Lixin, and boarded a flight to California.
Am I dreaming?
Asaka Yui gripped the microphone tightly, took a deep breath, and suddenly revealed a bright smile.
Yes, one day you will shine!
That day is today! It's right now!
"Athena, Ikimasu! (Athena, here she comes!)"
Ugh!
Her clear, sweet voice, typical of a young girl, paired with an outfit that looked like it stepped right out of a game, captivated everyone's hearts with just one sentence.
Cuteness and innocence will always be the best!
As the song ended, cheers completely drowned out Asaka Yui on stage.
She was breathing heavily, her cheeks flushed with excitement and covered in fine beads of sweat.
Speaking in heavily accented English, almost indistinguishable, she gave a brief self-introduction with the help of the narrator.
She then took the floppy disk Sam handed her and held it high in front of the audience and the camera.
"Everyone, please support Xiwang! Superpower Team!!! Superpower Team, Fight!"
"I want to buy ten tickets!!!"
咔」
The spotlights suddenly went out all at once, leaving only one beam fixed on her.
Another female voice suddenly rang out from somewhere.
Compared to Asaka Yui, she has a bit more of a spoiled and willful air.
"Huh? A superpowered team? The KOF tournament champions are our all-female fighter team!"
A second spotlight suddenly lit up, projecting the figure standing in the passageway onto the wall.
Surging!
turbulent!
generous!
"Mai Shiranui, ginseng! (Mai Shiranui, ginseng!)
Some people look at others from top to bottom.
Some people prefer to work from the bottom up; it's all a personal choice.
But when facing her, it's hard not to start from the middle.
She gracefully walked through the passageway, heading towards the arena.
Amidst the sounds of swallowing coming from both sides, she reached into her chest and pulled out a floppy disk.
Unlike the superpower group, this cover features three female characters with distinct styles.
Mai Shiranui, Yuri Sakazaki, and King.
As a close-up of the floppy disk appeared on the screen, the scene suddenly switched to a pre-recorded promotional video.
It is a gameplay video of each of the three female fighters.
Mai Shiranui's bright red ninja outfit and signature tassel tail made her the center of attention from the very first moment the show started.
NovaBo's multi-graphics coprocessor architecture brings support for a far greater number of active sprites on the same screen than in the past.
The missiles that fire projectiles are spirits, the characters that move are spirits, and even individual parts of a character can be spirits.
Rock-a-bye
Vivian looked at Mai Shiranui's idle animation on the screen and coughed awkwardly.
"Lin Da, is this the 'necessary element' you created using our already strained graphics performance?"
"This is art, something that the public enjoys."
Lin Lixin crossed his arms and nodded with satisfaction, looking as if he were admiring the world's greatest masterpiece.
This was a legendary king of doujinshi.
Just having Mai Shiranui and Chris standing together is enough to evoke childhood memories for so many people.
In the blink of an eye, Kokusei Sayuri was already standing on the ring, facing off against Asaka Yui.
"Mina! Please support our all-female fighting team!"
Down in the audience, John curled his lip, disliking this brash fellow who had barged in so abruptly.
"What's going on? Does this guy think being sexy is superior to being cute? How ridiculous."
If he had to choose one character booster pack, he would definitely choose the Athena one.
He still prefers the Athena style.
"Sexiness is nothing compared to cuteness! Don't you think so, Mike?"
"what?"
Mike forced his gaze away from Mai Shiranui. "Sorry, what did you just say?"
"We hope everyone is ready, because what follows is a friendly match for all the players who have worked hard to attend!"
"But before that—after GG, come right back!"
Since it's still a TV program, it's natural to insert GG during the three-hour live broadcast so that the TV station can earn revenue.
However, all 29 GG consoles scheduled for prime time this month were booked by GAMENOVA.
For viewers glued to their TVs, this might be a time when they can comfortably go to the bathroom.
But for the audience at the scene, this was a crucial moment.
First-ever character booster packs available for pre-order!
Although the game itself will not be officially available in major convenience stores until the day after the show.
"Quick, Mike, clear a path for me! I'm going to steal a few more booster packs from the Superpowered Team!"
John, who had a pass, was already in the front row of the audience. Upon receiving the signal, he immediately jumped up and, along with Mike, sprinted towards the seat where Asaka was sitting.
"Ahem, I have an idea, John!"
Mike slammed on the brakes, swerving to Guosheng Xiaobaihe's side. "I'll go help you grab the starting spot on the Women's Fighters team! That way we'll both have a chance to get it!"
"F**k, you're right! Let's split up!"
"The ratings data for the first time slot is out."
In Studio 29, an assistant presents McCoy with the latest printed documents.
"1.17%?! Are you sure?"
"Sorry, sorry, this is indeed a printing error."
The assistant bowed repeatedly in apology, pointing to the viewership rating data, "The latest data is 1.2%."
"Oh My God----"
McCoy felt like he was about to lose his balance.
This viewership rating was similar to what their channel, Channel 29, had at its peak.
