Loving Mom 216
Chapter 216
Seeing Wendy's face practically glowing with excitement, Sharon couldn't help but ask, “What's the good news?”
“Sharon, you've gone viral!” Wendy nearly shouted, thrusting her phone into Sharon's hands. “Remember when
you went with Matty to that competition? Someone-bless their kind soul-streamed a video of you playing the
violin online!
“You're blowing up! You've almost hit ten million followers! | even heard the video’s making the rounds
internationally!”
Wendy's voice rose with growing exhilaration. “Sharon, didn’t you and John plan to do a concert tour? This is the
perfect opportunity to ride the wave-it's the best momentum for your comeback!”
Wendy, who had once sworn she’d beca top-tier agent and launch a true global star with sheer talent, didn't
like to admit it -but even she had to face the truth: in this day and age, traffic was king.
No matter how talented you were, if no one was watching, it didn’t matter.
And to get an audience, people had to know you existed.
Now, in this fast-paced, attention-deficit era, talent wasn't the first thing people looked for. Capital could create
the illusion of brilliance in the shortest time. With help from marketing accounts, media outlets, headlines, and
non-stop hype, they could brainwash the public into thinking someone was exceptional-huge, relevant,

That's how you built an army of mindless fans.
In the past, success cfrom real skill. Now, it cfrom strategy, gimmicks, and persona.
Still, true talent always shone through. The public, despite everything, still had sharp eyes. No amount of
promotion could mask a lack of substance. Without real skill, no one lasted long.
Kelly was proof. Despite her legion of obsessive fans, her talent was very real.
John might be popular now, but he had no backing.
And at this stage, he was still far from becoming capital himself.
After severing ties with his original management company, it was still uncertain whether he might face industry
blacklisting.
But if Sharon could rise to fnow, this was what you called a god-tier starting hand.
Sharon took the phone from Wendy and saw that it was a screen recording of a livestream.
She asked, “Did Xavier do this?”
“Nope,” Wendy said quickly, shaking her head. “I was sitting right next to Xavier when you performed. He wasn’t
livestreaming.

Wendy leaned in, watching the clip with her. “From the angle, it looks like the person filming was sitting in the
Biggs family section... Anyway, we don’t need to overthink it. Whoever it was, they did us a favor.”
Sharon understood. Times had changed. If she wanted to accomplish anything now, she couldn't afford to be
invisible.
It had been five years since she last touched a violin. Getting back into it wouldn't be easy.
John’s invitation to co-host a concert was a hand extended in kindness. But she couldn't rely on him forever.
Now, she'd gone viral-by accident. But it was still the best start she could've hoped for.
Wendy's professional instincts kicked in immediately. Her mind was already racing ahead, mapping out the next
steps.
“Since you're hot right now, let's get your official account set up fast. While the buzz is still fresh, we'll post a

performance clips and start building your fanbase. Carter threw god knows how much money into promoting
Kelly online, and look at her now... just so-so.”
Wendy had a sharper mind for management and promotion than Sharon did. Sharon nodded in agreement. 1
“No tto waste. Let's set up the account now.”
At the hospital.
The examinations had dragged on the entire day before they were finally done.
As evening approached, Carter got an urgent call. Something had cup at work. He had to return to the
company immediately.
And with Carter pulled away by business, Nate couldn't very well use the sold tricks to trap him again.
