It sparked a lot of discussion on the Internet.
The achievements of "Ave Mujica" are obvious to all in the circle. It debuted in early August and received very good response in its first premiere with its novel program effects and excellent songs.
Later, he accumulated a large number of fans in just half a month, which gave him the confidence to perform at the Budokan at the end of August.
Such a wonderful band, but Sakura publicly admitted that he had never heard of it. Many people suspected that this might be because the agency that "AveMujica" belongs to was the culprit that led "Ark Savior" to decide to become independent.
That's why Yingliang didn't want to look them in the face.
This reason was recognized by many netizens.
Thus, a new round of competition begins.
Fans of "Ave Mujica" think that Sakura is narrow-minded and ignores the existence of this band because of the agency.
This behavior is extremely shameful.
However, they obviously underestimated Sakura's popularity.
You know, this is in the rock circle.
[What are they? Are they even going to be on screen?]
[So what if they're ignored? Are they worthy of being compared to "Ark Savior"? They're an independent band who made it to the Tokyo Dome Theatre on their own merits.]
"Ave Mujica" is a good song, but it's nothing compared to "Ark Savior," not to mention their low production output. Are there not enough bands like them? If it weren't for the agency's heavy investment in promotion, their poor reviews would have taken at least six months to get into the Budokan.
[Who wouldn't be a bit angry? Just saying they don't know each other already caused a fuss, so if they go on to slander someone a bit more, wouldn't there be a huge outcry?]
……
A few days later, public opinion fermented.
【Win-Wing Production】Office.
In a meeting room, all members of "Ave Mujica" were present.
The leader was none other than Toyokawa Shoko.
As for the other four people, they were not unfamiliar faces.
They are Hatsuka Sanka, one of the members of the group "Sumimi", Kairei Yawata, a mercenary who has been in many bands, Mutsushi Wakaba, who is a student at Tsukinomori and whose parents are both public figures, and finally, Wakamu Yutenji, a beauty blogger who is well-known on the Internet.
"Ahhh~ How did it get to this point! The internet is full of people criticizing us, even though we didn't say anything!"
Looking at the content on the phone, Ruomai was about to collapse.
Just because Sakura said she didn't know them, her fans started attacking her, and some even directly used the fact that Sakura came from an orphanage and had no manners to make an issue of her.
Now, the other party’s fans fought back and scolded those brainless fans so badly that they were at a loss as to what to do, and even “AveMujica” was implicated.
Originally they were performing with masks on to hide their identities, but now they have been directly exposed by Sakura's fans. The first to be affected are her, the beauty blogger, and the famous Mikado Hatsuka.
As for the other three, they will probably not be able to escape either. It seems to be just a matter of time.
"What should I do now? A lot of people have already come to my account and asked me to come forward and explain!"
Ruomai’s head was about to explode.
How would she know how to explain it?
Saying that it was the fans' behavior and had nothing to do with you?
That will definitely cause a lot of fans to lose, right?!
……
Chapter 105 The firm’s decision and Xiangzi’s determination.
"Ms. Yutenji, please calm down."
"In this situation, it's pointless to just worry."
Xiangzi reminded calmly, seemingly indifferent to the matter, and confident that he could get through the difficult times.
In fact, she was more anxious than anyone else present, but as the team leader, she couldn't show it at all!
"How can I stay calm in this situation?"
Ruomai was convinced. "I only agreed to form a band with you because of Mutsuko and Hatsuko. Now we haven't even started to reap the benefits of the band yet, and you've already become the target of public criticism!"
She was really afraid that her family would see her current situation on the Internet and worry about her.
"In a sense, Meow Meng-kun has already taken over the traffic, right? Even more than Sankaku-san and Wakaba-san combined."
Hai Ling mentioned it.
Ruomai almost laughed out of anger, "I don't want to eat this kind of traffic, Meow Mengqin!"
next second.
Ruomai reacted suddenly.
"Wait, Ryou?"
She looked at Hai Ling, who was sitting across from her, in surprise. "'Liang', does that mean Yingliang? The lead singer of 'ArkSavior'? "
"Are you two familiar with each other? You even call each other by name!"
As soon as these words came out.
Including Xiangzi, everyone else looked at Hailing.
The person involved looked calm.
"We're good friends, I guess."
"real or fake!?"
Ruomai was so shocked that he slammed the table.
"I should have no reason to lie."
Hailing's words gave Ruomai hope.
"In that case, Haizi, please quickly ask him to come out and explain, so that his fans can calm down. Miao Mengqin really can't take it anymore!"
Ruomai exchanged contact information with Yingliang last time, and thought that something could develop between them.
As a result, the other party didn't contact me at all. Even if I took the initiative to send a message, it was just a perfunctory response in the end.
If we were to say the only important person who connected the two of them, it would probably be a girl named "Chihaya Aine".
That was the contact recommended by Yingliang, who claimed to be her die-hard fan.
The two of them had a very good chat at the beginning, and Ruomai even planned to use Aine to try to get close to Yingliang.
Who would have thought that after such a commotion from the fans, Aine has been so perfunctory towards herself these days...
"Sorry, can't do that."
Hai Ling decisively refused.
"Why!?"
Ruomai was puzzled.
"I've already asked him about this. He was busy creating and training, and he hadn't heard of 'AveMujica'. Now he's being criticized for no reason. Even if he wanted to come out and explain that it was a misunderstanding, his teammates wouldn't agree."
"why is it like this!?"
Ruomai felt like the sky was falling.
Seeing her almost desperate expression, Hai Ling tried to comfort her: "You shouldn't worry, Miao Meng. You've already been caught. I guess we'll focus on the others whose identities have yet to be revealed."
Ruomai sat down again, covering his eyes with one hand and waving the other at Hailing in disdain, "Haizi, stop talking. The impact on Miao Mengqin right now is huge."
"Are you worried that some extreme fans might come after you?"
Hai Ling asked seriously.
Ruomai trembled with fear.
"Please shut up..."
She lay on the table with a look of despair.
It looked like she was crying.
Chu Hua looked at Ruomai worriedly.
"Is Meow Meng okay?"
Ruomai raised his right hand weakly and waved it.
at this time.
The door to the conference room opened.
Miss Kawashima walked in.
Now she is not only “Sumimi” but also the manager of “Ave Mujica”.
Seeing that the person they had been waiting for finally arrived, Ruomai and Xiangzi subconsciously wanted to stand up, but the other party raised his hand to signal them to sit down.
Miss Kawashima found an empty seat and sat down.
"Excuse me, what exactly is the solution currently offered by the firm?"
Xiangzi couldn't help asking.
The others looked at Miss Kawashima seriously.
Ms. Kawashima sighed, "The firm is under pressure from all sides right now. I hope you can apologize as soon as possible."
"If you can't do that, the agency will temporarily cancel your performance at the Budokan the day after tomorrow."
"Are you kidding? We didn't do anything!"
Ruomai felt incredible.
Why should they be held responsible for the fans' faults?
Compared to her, Xiangzi seemed a little calmer on the surface.
"As far as I know, the Budokan stage has already been built, and tickets have already been sold out. If the agency cancels the performance at this critical moment, they will not only lose the ticket sales, but will also have to pay the Budokan the deposit."
"Furthermore, we bear very little responsibility for this incident. If it's cancelled, we'll at most lose an opportunity, and shouldn't have to bear any compensation. What's the point of the firm doing this? Just to make a statement?"
Miss Kawashima pushed her glasses, and the flash of light from the lens gave everyone a sudden foreboding feeling.
"First of all, cancelling a performance at short notice will indeed cause the agency to lose money. But why does Ms. Xiangzi think she can escape this loss?"
"What do you mean?"
Xiangzi's brows were furrowed.
Ms. Kawashima explained, "Didn't Ms. Xiangzi read the contract carefully? It clearly states that even if the fans create huge negative public opinion and it affects the company's operations, you still need to bear the corresponding responsibility."
"Based on the division of primary and secondary responsibilities in this incident, you must at least compensate for 40 percent of the total losses."
"How many?"
Ruomai was horrified.
Xiangzi and Chuhua also widened their eyes, but Hailing and Mu remained calm.
……
At the agency's request, the five members had no choice but to record an apology video and post it on the band's account.
Little did they know that the so-called temporary cancellation of the Budokan performance was just a scam by the agency to fool them.
The tickets are all sold out, so there's no problem at all if we just deal with the performance first and then figure out a solution.
After all, the public opinion this time was mainly directed at this band, and the agency was not affected too much.
Compared with the last time, it is nothing.
What's more, the firm doesn't believe that these young girls are willing to bear the sky-high compensation for the sake of face.
As for the Toyokawa Group behind Xiangzi?
The agency could only say, go talk to Xianjuan’s family who just called, we are all trying hard to survive.
