I'm here to form a band, what do you want to do!

"To get sponsorship."

Ijichi Xingge supported her chin with one hand, watching them quarrel in front of her, yawning in boredom.

"Go on." She pointed at Ito Rin.

"Manager, think about it carefully. A movie with me in it will definitely not fail. If you invest some money, we will open a store as the final sponsor..."

"Why won't it fail?" Xingge asked back.

"I'm so handsome." Ito Rin answered confidently.

This attitude and tone almost made Xingge laugh. She looked at Ito Rin and wanted to say something to criticize him, but she was speechless for a moment when she saw his charming smile.

Tsk, this guy really isn't lying.

"Then why should I invest?" She sat back in her chair, still looking uninterested.

"Manager, don't you want to attract more customers?" Ito Rin asked, "Fanxing's development is very slow now. Relying on mutual recommendations from customers to attract customers is too slow. We need to accept new things!"

“…” Xingge was frightened by his sudden enthusiasm and nodded involuntarily.

"so?"

"Please invest in us. When our film becomes a huge success, your investment will be rewarded a hundredfold."

Yamada Ryo walked over and heard him say this, feeling as if he had borrowed money and promised to pay it back.

No, it was even worse. He not only promised to pay back the money, but also promised to bear the interest.

"I don't believe it." The store manager curled his lips. In the end, principles triumphed over temptation.

What a joke! How could a movie shot by a group of high school students be such a success?

"In that case, there's nothing we can do." Ito Rin said in a deep voice.

Just when everyone thought he would give up, Ito Rin stood beside Hongxia and said, "Okay, your sister is in our hands..."

"That's enough." Hong Xia pushed him away, feeling both amused and helpless.

"Your sister has terrible taste." Ito Rin complained.

"Well, shouldn't you pay attention to the occasion before speaking?" Hong Xia looked at her sister with flames on her body and reminded him tactfully.

"That's it." Ito Rin ignored him and continued, "As long as you put in a little investment, not only can you fulfill your sister's wish, but you can also promote it. This is a deal that won't lose you anything."

"Hehe, who knows if you will succeed." Xingge retracted his clenched fist and spoke unhappily.

"It will definitely succeed. I have a good idea." Ito Rin patted his chest and promised.

"I always say the same thing before I borrow money." Yamada Ryo said indifferently.

"Beautiful senior, you don't owe money now, do you?" Ito Rin asked curiously.

Not sure if it was because of the name or what he said, but Yamada Ryo glared at him. When he noticed Hongxia looking at him, he shrank his head guiltily.

"What's the solution?" The store manager pretended not to notice their interaction.

"Ahem, let's talk in private."

Under the store manager's disgusted gaze, Ito Rin pulled her to the training room next door. When she came out, her face was still full of reluctance, but she finally softened her stance and was willing to fund their filming.

"How did you convince her?" Hong Xia couldn't believe it.

“It is known with emotion, and moved with reason.”

"I do not believe."

Ito Rin smiled without saying a word, tapping the table and looking at the stage where the lights were on.

The last day passed in a flash.

The next day was the day of the competition.

After finishing the morning class, Ito Rin was caught using his cell phone to contact members. Facing the majestic gazes of the seniors, he nodded reluctantly.

"Are you really coming?"

"Tsk, how could I miss such an interesting thing?" Yamada Ryo narrowed his eyes, and his expression became much richer, at least he didn't look so cold anymore.

"Don't cheer us on."

"I didn't plan to do that," Yamada Ryo replied.

"Is there something wrong with this way of competing?" Hong Xia had more things to consider.

It is too hasty to use applause as the basis for judging victory or defeat. If the levels of both sides are similar, there is no way to tell who is the winner.

"Yes, but it doesn't matter."

"Ok?"

"We will definitely win, and it's an undeniable victory." Ito Rin said with a smile.

Yamada Ryo looked at Ito Rin's smile and listened to his plain declaration. His handsome appearance could not hide the pride and confidence in his tone.

"I heard you're going to be on stage too?"

Ito Rin said depressedly: "Originally it had nothing to do with me, but the guy in charge of guitar suddenly went home to review, so I, the coach, had to warm up and go on stage."

"Not Bess?"

Ito Rin snapped his fingers and said, "Good idea. I'll go back and kick Soyo out right away."

"Forget it, you can't do it anyway." Yamada Ryo said lightly.

Woman, how dare you look down on me!

"By the way, who is your opponent?" Hong Xia was curious about this question.

“That’s a complicated matter.”

"Then let's make a long story short."

"The leader of Sushi's former band reunited with the guitarist after leaving. Sushi realized there was no way to save the situation, so she formed MyGO."

Ito Rin summarized the general situation in just a few words. Since she was asked to be brief, she had to ignore Nagasaki Suyo's intention to kick someone.

"So it's a showdown between old and new bands." Yamada Ryo was in awe, which reminded her of her own experience. "Tell me clearly who is pursuing music, and I will support them then."

"..."

This question is really puzzling. Are there any of them who really pursue music?

Ito Rin's silence was deafening, and Yamada Ryo rolled his eyes, almost figuring out the relationship.

"There are still a few." Ito Rin excused them.

Yamada Ryo looked at him sideways, "How many?"

"Let me count, one, two, one, two, one, two..."

Well, Ito Rin had to admit that Yamada Ryo's pursuit did surpass them.

“I won’t support anyone then.”

"Thank you."

"Heh." She bared her teeth in dissatisfaction, and her lively attitude surprised Hong Xia.

"But don't worry, you will applaud me when the time comes."

He didn't say it was for the band, but only for him. Yamada Ryo, who could sense the difference, looked at him meaningfully.

"I heard from Pochi-chan that it's really amazing."

"It's just so-so." At this time, Ito Rin also learned to be humble.

"But I'm very surprised. With Ito's experience, you should have never played a musical instrument before. When Hongxia invited you, you said you didn't know how to play at all. How come you've become so good at it so quickly?"

"I am a genius."

The declaration that should have been full of confidence made people feel guilty. Yamada Ryo, who was not so easily convinced, wanted to continue to find fault with him, but was stopped by Hongxia.

"when it start?"

"Around seven o'clock." Ito Rin breathed a sigh of relief, "Because there are internal members among our members who can help arrange a good time."

"See? Let's ask the store manager to arrange a good time for us next time," said Yamada Ryo.

"By the way, the band we're competing against is no slouch either. They're about to become a hot pop band."

Yamada Ryo tilted his head, not believing his nonsense.

"And you still say you can definitely win?"

"Because I'm stronger."

The girls laughed happily, and Ito Rin took it as encouragement to him.

While chatting with them, I glanced out the window inadvertently.

**The winding road and the blue sky bring a cool breath to the metropolis in autumn.

Such good weather is a day suitable for victory.

In the blink of an eye, it was time to go home from school. The store manager expressed strong dissatisfaction with the three people's decision to ask for leave, but there was no way to correct their thoughts.

After finishing their classes for the day, they chose to walk to the Ring.

Time was not tight and Ito Rin did not feel nervous either, so she walked slowly and arrived at four in the afternoon.

It was not yet time for official opening, and the only people in the store were regular customers or the band that was about to perform.

Although it was not her first time here, Hong Xia still tried hard to observe the layout of the store, wondering whether Fanxing could develop to this level in the future.

"You finally came."

As soon as she entered the store, she heard a voice full of anticipation. If the other person was not Shiina Riki, Ito Rin would be even happier.

That would prove his appeal, instead of being pulled away by the opponent for pre-match training like he is now.

"Please, how can we train with just the two of us when no one else has arrived?" Ito Rin said helplessly.

After so much practice, this is the moment when you need to relax.

"That's what I mean..." A conflicted look appeared on Shiina Riki's pretty face.

"You should rest first. I'll go out for a walk."

Ito Rin didn't want to be nagged by her, so she winked at the two people beside her and left Ring temporarily.

"You haven't been here much, so I'll take you on a tour."

Volume 2: Chapter 57: Genius among Geniuses

It was a warm autumn afternoon in Setagaya, Tokyo.

"Do you really want to participate in a meaningless competition like this?"

"Of course I'll go." Ruoye Mu replied, quickly packed up his guitar and put it on his back.

I stood up and looked around. Except for Yutenji Wakamaki who asked questions, everyone else seemed indifferent.

Shoko Toyokawa has been busy preparing for her performance recently and has not paid special attention to such competitions, but when the time comes, she will take everyone there.

In her impression, the newly formed band of Nagasaki Motoyo is quite good, but after all, it is still at the level of high school students. How can it be compared with her Galaxy Battleship?

Even if we are playing on the opponent's home court, we can easily win as long as we play our best.

"Is it really appropriate for her to appear?" Hachiman Kailing pointed at Sankaku Hatsuka and asked the question.

"What's wrong?" Sanjiao Chuhua tilted his head.

"After all, she's a star."

"I'm not famous, and I will wear sunglasses when the time comes, so other people won't recognize me." Sanjiao Chuhua picked up the sunglasses and pressed his body on Toyokawa Shoko.

Only Teacher Damiao still felt resentful, thinking that at the critical moment before going on stage, it was really putting the cart before the horse to not prepare hard but to compete with an unfamiliar team.

However, it was of no use. She had little influence in the band and no one stood on her side.

"Why would Xiaomu want to go?"

"none of your business."

"Hey!" Teacher Da Miao huffed in dissatisfaction, "We are teammates, okay?"
