"A young girl, despite the pressures of life, still works hard to practice her instrument. I think it's not because of her hobby, but because she places her dreams on music. Or maybe it's something more serious, like... hoping to survive through music."

Hanada Qiyu spoke in a calm tone, but several people present fell silent.

Everyone knows that dreams cannot be eaten.

However, when you discover that you, who you thought was ordinary, actually have certain talents in a certain area, and there is hope that you can rely on this talent to make yourself shine, or even completely change your life, who can not try to reach out and grab that ray of light?

What's worse, some people have been pushed into this field and trained in this direction by their parents since childhood. If they don't take this path, they almost don't know what to do and can only make a living by doing odd jobs.

Too many people don’t have that many choices in life…

"..."

Ebizuka Satoshi glanced at him, then turned away silently.

She and Rupa both wanted to form a professional band with the goal of entering a martial arts school, which meant... they planned to make a living from music.

But for now, let’s get to work.

In fact, they had been approached by the agency for invitations several times, but her overly sharp and tough personality made it difficult for her to get along with others, and it was easy for them to part ways on bad terms.

Rupa was quite accommodating and tolerant of her, so the two of them maintained their current situation, working part-time while posting some music videos online and trying to find teammates.

It is worth mentioning that they are different from Hanada Qi Ame. Hanada Qi Ame only posts videos on large global websites such as YouTube and INS. They mainly operate accounts on domestic Japanese websites. After all, it is difficult for them to develop abroad, and they need more attention from related fields in China.

On the other side, Kawahara Momoka was also in a daze.

Her situation is different from that of Satoshi Ebizuka and Rupa. She dropped out of high school with several friends to form a band. After three years, they were not very popular, so the agency decided to let them transform and change their style to become an idol band, so she quit the band.

She felt that it was her fault.

We had clearly agreed to continue activities together even when we became old ladies and to form a lifelong band. Everyone was persisting, but she ended up quitting first.

The band I formed with Jing Qinrencai, An Heang, and others now has no intention of turning it into a professional band. We just play around as hobbyists.

An Heang has his own career path as an artist, and Jing Qinren is also planning to go to university. Maybe they should break up in a few months...

When the time comes, she will go back to her hometown and find a job...

"I have a band I'd like to promote, so I've been debating whether to set up an agency or buy one outright. The former means starting from scratch, which is quite involved, while the latter requires careful consideration of budget and the agency's profitability. I don't mind a small loss, but I'd rather let others make a little money."

Hanada Qiyu's light words interrupted the wandering thoughts of everyone present, and they all looked at her, their eyes either puzzled or dazed.

Buying an office... What terrible things is this guy saying!?

Although they don't know how much it will cost, it is definitely not a small amount!

Is his financial resources so exaggerated! ?

Hanada Qiyu had no intention of explaining in detail, as he did not like behaviors such as boasting about one's wealth.

However, establishing or purchasing a firm is a business activity. Unlike private research institutes that rely mainly on his talent and do not care about profit or loss, his budget will increase a lot.

Two hundred million dollars... should be enough.

This number is already not small, so he has to consider it carefully and think about how to use it so as not to lose it easily.

If he wanted, he could bring in some partners, but the firm he wanted was one where he had the final say and could let the girls pursue what they wanted without worrying about commercial interests.

That way, the money is well spent.

"With an agency, artists and the like are naturally indispensable. It's difficult to support an agency solely with the band I want to promote, so... I'd like to know a little bit, Ms. Taoxiang, what kind of band are you putting together now? Also, what do these two store clerks think of it?"

Everything is still in the planning stage and has not yet been realized, so you don’t have to worry too much and can speak freely.”

In short, he first draws a pie in the sky.

If Kawahara Ki Momoka and others don't want to eat it, then it would be nice to just eat something else.

"Um... two questions. First, do you really have the luxury of spending so much money? Will your parents and others not intervene? Second, what is so appealing about the band you want to promote that's worth it?"

Kawahara Momoka, the more reliable adult among the group, asked after some thought.

The others also nodded, they were all very curious!

"Before I answer, I'd like to ask a small question: Do you understand the concept of 'superman' in Nietzsche's philosophy?"

Hanada Qi Yu asked softly.

The three women who dropped out of school, an arts school student, and an adult whose brain had never been polluted by philosophical knowledge all fell silent and looked at each other.

If you talk to them about superheroes, they might respond with a word or two, but this... is a bit difficult for them.

"In that case, I won't describe it in detail. You can simply and roughly understand it as—me!"

Hanadasaki Ame made a gesture with his hands crossed and supported his chin. Although he was still blindfolded and could not see anything around him, Kawahara Ki Momoka and others could feel the strong confidence in him.

"My body and my brain are the best parts of humanity; my talents surpass countless others; my desires are so strong that they swallow up all timidity and cowardice; my courage and perseverance are enough to overcome all the pain in life and lead me to move forward continuously; I am morality itself, the norm itself. In this world, there is no such thing as 'what I should do', only what 'I can do'!

When I was five years old, my father was sure that my wisdom had completely surpassed his, and he transferred the power of being the head of the family to me. Through years of hard work, I have accumulated the huge wealth that I can control today.

So, there is no need to consider my family's opinions, as I am the one who makes the decisions. There is no need to worry about the future of the firm, because I am the one who will control it!"

After a round of self-praise that was close to objective facts, while Kawahara Ki Momoka and others were still confused by these remarks, Hanada Qi Yu turned and showed a very gentle smile.

"As for what's so appealing about the band I want to promote, I think... the band's keyboard player is my back desk mate. I talk to her almost every day and she's very cute."

When they heard this, the same thought came to their minds - he did all this for the girl he liked!

However, Hanadazaki Ame hadn't even finished half of what she was going to say.

"The guitarist in the band is my sister's classmate. She is introverted and fragile, and she really needs my care and concern.

Bass...I'm not very familiar with her, but I've already agreed to form a professional band with her.

Drummer, I just woke up from her bed at noon today. She is also a child who is not very clear about her future direction and needs my proper guidance.

Finally, the lead singer...hasn't been found yet.

Well, that’s it!”

The store was quiet for a while before Ebizuka Satoshi shrank behind Rupa, who looked at him warily.

“You scumbag…”

"Hmm! You're so fickle!"

An Heang nodded seriously and took the opportunity to pinch Hanada Qi Yu's soft face.

She felt... like she didn't really care?

Maybe she has no intention of spending the rest of her life with him. From the time she was in the car until now, her mind is full of thoughts of having some fun first!

……

Chapter 194: The night is about to begin!

"Ms. Momoka, what do you think?"

After thinking for a moment, Jing Qinren turned to look at Kawahara Ki Momoka and asked.

"Ah... indeed, quite a playboy..."

Kawahara Kimoka nodded in reply, obviously a little absent-minded, not knowing what she was thinking about.

However, such a perfunctory response obviously did not satisfy Jing Qinrencai, she said seriously.

"It's not about that. It's about the band. What do you think, Ms. Momoka?"

Although she also felt that Hanata Qi Ame's private life was a little chaotic, he was willing to invest in those girls and spend a lot of money to set up an artist agency. In fact, it was difficult to find too much fault with him and she could not accuse him of any problems other than being a playboy.

Personally, she was more concerned about Hanada Qiyu's other meaning. He mentioned the agency not just as a topic of conversation, but with the intention of recruiting them!

They haven't seriously discussed the future path of this band that doesn't even have a name!

"...Let me think about it. Oh, and have a beer!"

Kawahara Kimoka changed the subject and still did not respond directly.

"Ok!"

Rupa replied with a smile.

Hanada Qi Yu clapped her hands lightly and spoke to the others.

"Everyone, feel free to order whatever you want. It's my treat tonight! Of course, don't drink too much!"

Being drunk is not fun.

"Yeah, I want a medium bowl of beef rice!"

An Heang immediately raised his hand and said.

"Middle bowl!"

Jing Qinrencai also said this.

Come to Yoshinoya and enjoy this beef rice bowl!

Although Hanada Qiyu had already eaten dinner, his digestive ability had increased so much that he hardly felt full, so he ordered one as well.

Ebizka Satoshi and Rupa quickly got busy as if they were familiar with the process. They had been working here for a long time and were familiar with everything, so there would be no mistakes.

However, while preparing the food, they couldn't help but temporarily put aside their consideration of Hanadazaki Ame's character and wondered whether they should try to get along with him.

Although Hanada Qiyu is just drawing a pie in the sky, the problem is that he really has the ability to make this pie in the sky!

They had seen Hanatasaki Uedao's videos online, and the sense of his talent almost suffocated them as they were also creating music.

But, wouldn't it be more reassuring to form a band under someone who understands music like this?

"Chi-chan, how's it going?"

After finishing her work, Rupa whispered to Ebizuka Satoshi.

Ebizuka Satoshi glanced at the people chatting while eating. He then lowered his head to the floor and remained silent for a while before speaking in a low voice.

"If he really sets up an agency, I'm not opposed to joining. As for the others... we'll have to wait and see. At least... I've seen their live performances first."

They have a keyboardist and a bassist, so they must form a band. Kawahara Momoka and the other three have a lead singer, a guitarist, and a drummer, and they just happen to be short of a keyboard and a bass, so if they form a band, they can fit in together.

However, forming a band is not just about filling up the positions. The compatibility of the members, whether they can get along well, their pursuit of music, etc. all need to be carefully considered.

They have experienced failure in forming a band more than once.

It was already late, and there were usually not many customers at this time of year, so the two of them had some free time. After chatting for a few words in private, they returned to Hanada Qi Yu and the others and chatted with them.

It was mainly Rupa who did the talking, as Ebizka Satoshi was not good at talking and was mostly silent.

As an adult, Rupa often acts like Ebizuka Satoshi's parent.

During the conversation, Kawahara Momoka and others naturally learned that Rupa and her team had a keyboardist and a bassist, and they were inevitably tempted.

They just lack these two!

However, even Jing Qinrencai, who was the most impulsive, would not invite anyone without permission.

We don’t know each other very well, so how can we form a band so easily?

"Ms. Rupa, Ms. Ebizuka, we are having a small party later, do you want to join us?"

When they were almost done with the meal, Hanada Qi Yu asked calmly.

Kawahara Momoka held her forehead with her hand, speechless.

This guy is capable of extending that kind of invitation to a girl he meets for the first time!

Jing Qinrencai blushed and her eyes wandered. She hadn't decided whether to participate or not!

The education she had received had taught her that she should be cautious about such things and must do them with someone she liked.

But... this guy is really cute, and makes people feel a little moved...

Besides, she is not in her hometown anymore. The atmosphere here seems to be more open. Shouldn't she learn from them?
