People in Cyber, using skin to create legends

"I'm not sure. I never pay attention to these things. Maybe you can ask Big Brother yourself?"

"Forget it. He has always looked down on me and Lily."

"Brother just can't forget mother..."

"She's not me and Lily's mother."

Mo Tian spoke to Mo Wensi in an indifferent tone and knocked on the door.

Mo Wensi shrugged and turned away. An old voice came from behind the door:

"Is Tiantian back? Come in."

Mo Tian pushed the door open and entered.

Inside the room, a gray-haired old man who looked to be nearly sixty years old was sitting behind a desk in pajamas.

He was holding a very thick and wide book in his hand, which almost covered his entire face. When he heard Mo Tian coming in, he pointed to the side without even raising his head and said:

"Sit down first, I'll talk to you later."

Mo Tian sat down properly and waited quietly for the old man to finish reading the book in his hand.

About five minutes later, the old man put down the thick book in his hand and looked up at Mo Tian.

The old man's skin was very white, with an abnormal pallor.

He looked close to sixty, and although that was actually his age, people of his age in this era could look like they were in their thirties if they took good care of themselves.

The old man is the patriarch of the Mo family and is in charge of such a huge business empire as the Linghua Group. He has no shortage of resources or things to maintain, so it is indeed a bit strange that he looks so old.

But Mo Tian has gotten used to it.

She knew that her father was seriously injured in the company war a few years ago, which was why he became like this.

Mo Tian remained silent. The old man's body, which was sitting on the chair, suddenly moved horizontally and left from behind the desk.

It turned out that he had been in a wheelchair.

"Have you met Lily?"

As soon as the old man came out, he asked Mo Tian about Molly.

Mo Tian nodded: "I have seen her, but she still doesn't want to come back."

"Normal... She is as stubborn as your mother..."

The old man sighed and spoke softly.

Mo Tian's expression was not very good, and her eyes turned unkindly towards the old man:

"You'd better not mention her in front of us."

He was obviously her father, but Mo Tian looked at him as if he were an enemy.

The old man could only smile bitterly and said:

"Okay, okay, let's not mention her, let's not mention her..."

The old man sighed. Mo Tian didn't want to dwell on this issue too much, so he asked directly:

"I came here because I heard from Brother Wensi that you had something to talk to me about. What's the matter?"

As if he had just remembered something, the old man said:

"Yes, I have something to ask you. When you went to the City of Chaos to see Lily this time, did you feel that she was different in some way?"

"no the same?"

Mo Tian frowned, not understanding what the old man was talking about.

The old man was silent for a moment, then went straight to the point and asked, "Is the birthmark on her back still there?"

"…in…you suspect that the Lily in the City of Chaos is not Lily?"

Mo Tian instantly understood what was going on and her eyes turned slightly cold.

The old man shook his head: "It's not that I doubt it, you will know it when you see it for yourself."

As he spoke, he turned around, picked up the tablet on the table, and handed it to Mo Tian who was sitting next to him.

Taking the tablet from the old man, Mo Tian just glanced at it for a few seconds and then her face turned cold, with a chilling murderous intent revealed without any disguise.

Focusing your eyes on the tablet, you can see an investigation report and the conclusions behind the report.

Mo Tian just took a quick look at the contents of the investigation report, but what really made Mo Tian angry was the conclusion at the end.

It said that after investigation, it was confirmed that the little lady Molly who is now in the City of Chaos is not the real Molly.

She is a fake.

……

"Ah...Ah Qiu!"

Molly, feeling her nose itchy, sneezed to the side, then rubbed her nose and handed the contract to Angelita who was sitting in front of her.

After taking the contract, Angelita asked:

"Miss Mo has a cold?"

"No, maybe someone scolded me... I won't say more. Anyway, the contract has been signed, so I should be fine, right?"

After some thought, Molly decided to sign a virtual idol contract with Angelita.

After all, the conditions offered by Angelita are quite relaxed. She doesn't have to be a real idol, nor does she have to compete with others. She just needs to maintain eight hours of live broadcast time a week.

Of course, Molly will not have many resources, and Hongguang Entertainment will not train Molly too much. It will only treat Molly as an ordinary virtual idol.

That's fine, Molly doesn't rely on this to survive anyway.

But Angelita was still a little disappointed:

"If you agree to become an idol of our Rainbow Entertainment, I promise to bring you a lot of resources and make you the most dazzling star in the entire Chaos City within a year!"

"Forget it. I'm not interested in that. I'll just treat it as a part-time job for now... By the way, after I become a virtual idol, I don't need to show up, right?"

"It depends on your own wishes. If you want to perform in your real appearance, that's fine. If you want to perform in a virtual appearance, that's fine too, as long as it doesn't violate the contract."

Angelita sighed, and finally she stood up to say goodbye and said to Molly:

"By the way, I might contact you again later."

"Huh? Why?"

"Our chairman is a very serious person. She sometimes reviews new people who join Rainbow Entertainment, so... you understand."

"Understand."

Molly nodded in understanding.

It's nothing more than the top boss coming down to inspect, and Molly will know what to do then.

Chapter 106: First Day of Debut

Molly considers herself to be a person with a strong sense of contract.

Or maybe she felt that she should work hard to do what she promised, so she seldom really nodded and agreed to anything others did. On the contrary, once she promised Molly, she felt that she should fulfill her promise.

Becoming a suit idol now... is wrong, and the same goes for becoming a virtual idol.

Since she has signed a contract with others, Molly must at least meet the standards in the contract.

It just so happened that Molly had almost nothing to do these days except teaching Alice fighting skills, so she simply stayed at home to set up the character settings for her suit.

The virtual idols in Chaos City are not much different from the virtual idols that Molly understands.

The virtual idols that Molly understands are the vtubers she has seen in her previous life, or those virtual idols made entirely of AI, such as Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi.

Not to mention the virtual idols that are made entirely of AI, the virtual idols in Molly's impression are those vtubers who broadcast live in a beautiful two-dimensional leather suit.

Therefore, compared to virtual idol, it is more appropriate to describe it as virtual anchor.

The virtual idols in City of Chaos are similar, in that a virtual identity and personality are created and then played by real people.

We don’t even need real people at all, and it is completely controlled by intelligent AI.

At first glance, there is not much difference between the previous life and the City of Chaos in this regard, but in fact there are some differences.

The most important thing is the live broadcast equipment.

In the past, virtual idols used a lot of equipment when performing live shows, such as motion capture equipment, expression capture equipment, as well as high-configuration cameras and computers.

Depending on the situation, you may even need to use a voice changer.

But in this world, virtual idols don’t need these messy things when broadcasting live.

They were using a completely stealth-type device, like the Dream that Molly had used before, and they would broadcast live from this location.

Therefore, when the virtual idols in this world broadcast live, they only need a stealth helmet.

"It's really weird. There are virtual stealth devices, but there are no corresponding games..."

Holding the helmet in her hand, Molly couldn't help but complain.

Obviously, the world's technology in this area is quite advanced, but in the end, the only games available are those antiques from the last century, all of which are ported from VR games.

New games at all!

It's as if the world doesn't care about this kind of development at all.

On the contrary, there are many films similar to "Dream", and I don't know why.

After making a similar complaint in her heart, Molly found a comfortable position and lay on the bed. She took a deep breath, put the helmet on her head and closed her eyes.

It was similar to the feeling when using the illusion. With a close and open of her eyes, a white light flashed, and Molly came to her own 'live broadcast room'.

This is where Molly will broadcast live in the future, in the live broadcast room in the virtual world.

The virtually designed live broadcast room was not big, only about ten square meters. Molly looked down at her body and saw that it was a completely original female template.

You can DIY the appearance and personality of your virtual image, or you can find a contracted company and ask them to find someone to design it.

Because Molly didn't want to interact with too many people, she chose to design it herself. Anyway, this thing is a fool-proof operation. She can design the image, upload the image and register the copyright by herself without any intervention from others.

Although the image designed by oneself may not necessarily be particularly eye-catching, even if it attracts attention, it may not necessarily become popular.

But Molly didn't care about that.

Because she found that even in the virtual world, Molly's [attention-grabbing] ability still existed, so as long as the image she designed was not particularly ugly, it was only a matter of time before she became popular.

"As for the room, just design it casually. As for the image, let me take a look..."

Molly tapped her finger in the air:

"I'll just follow the template of [Genius Idol], but I'll change the shape of my face a little so that people can't tell it's me...

"Her pupils are mushroom eyes... Ugh, starry eyes, and her hair is long purple... As for her name... let's call her 'Ai'? Well, it's taken, so let's call her 'Hoshino Ai'?... I feel like there's a risk of being assassinated by fans... Hmm..."

Customizing characters and changing their clothes is addictive, so it's no surprise that Molly spent more than two hours just on customizing her face and designing her image.

But Molly was troubled by the final naming process.

She originally wanted to name it "Ai" directly. After all, the template of "Genius Idol" was copied from Hoshino Ai, or Molly in the parallel world was Hoshino Ai herself.

But I didn't expect that the name "love" had already been taken by someone else.

Later I wanted to call her Hoshino Ai, but I felt that this name was a bit unlucky.

After thinking for a long time, Molly, who was not good at naming, simply named herself "Mo Ai". It sounded a bit unpleasant, but the name was not important.

So just like that, on an ordinary night, a virtual idol named "Mo Ai" appeared out of nowhere.

And started her first live broadcast.

……

In the office of Rainbow Entertainment, the young chairman of Rainbow Entertainment, Julia Wells, a woman who had just turned 20, was sitting at her desk reviewing the artists under her company.

Unlike other long-established entertainment companies, Rainbow Entertainment is not actually a big company, at least in the entertainment industry.

In terms of resources and connections in the entertainment industry, Rainbow Entertainment cannot compare with those old groups that have been in this industry for a long time.
