I am the Entertainment Tycoon

As the sun dipped below the horizon and the night took over Catadrid, millions of people around the world turned their attention to one singular event: the High Ceremony of the Sapphire Melody Award. This was the moment everyone had been waiting for, the climactic celebration where the most prestigious categories of the evening would be revealed. Unlike the Premiere Ceremony, which had already awarded dozens of technical and niche categories earlier in the day, the High Ceremony promised to deliver the night's biggest and most anticipated awards—the ones that would decide who would be crowned the true kings and queens of the music world.

The air was electric with anticipation, not just inside the grand ArtReam Hall, but across the entire world of Azure Star. On social media, particularly on the wildly popular Wing app, fans, artists, and music enthusiasts alike were buzzing with excitement. People shared their predictions, engaged in heated debates about their favorite artists, and posted countdowns to the moment the ceremony would finally begin.

The hashtag #SapphireMelody2024 had been trending for hours, but now, as the High Ceremony approached, it was skyrocketing in popularity. Posts were flooding in from every corner of Azure Star, from the bustling cities of Sakura Abode Country to the distant shores of Eagle Country and beyond. Fans of every genre were glued to their screens, eagerly awaiting the results of categories like Artist of the Year, Best Music Band, and Song of the Year.
