Imai gave Toyokawa Shoko some time to process the news, and at the same time he confirmed that Toyokawa Kiyoko definitely did not reveal too many details to Toyokawa Shoko, and she did not actively search for them herself.

Shoko Toyokawa pursed her lips, deep in thought; only the rubbing of her fingers under the table betrayed her unease.

Jin Zhaozhi simply waited patiently for her to think it over.

After a long while, she slowly spoke: "President Jin told me all this, it can't just be because he suddenly wanted to talk about his failure, right?"

“That’s right.” Jin Zhaozhi nodded. “Those who framed Mr. Qinggao are either at large overseas and impossible to catch, or they resigned openly but were secretly reassigned to new positions to continue to shine. I believe that the people of Fengchuan Real Estate can only suffer in vain... This is something I cannot accept.”

“Originally, I didn’t want to talk to you about these things because I didn’t want a student who is still in school to get involved in adults’ cheating. But now that you’ve joined ExElio, or rather, are a strategic partner of ExElio’s second generation, I can’t hide it from you.”

Toyokawa Shoko listened attentively, clearly agreeing with Imaizumi's claim of being a strategic partner.

Fourthly, this is also a way for Jin Zhao to protect her self-esteem.

Ling said, "I want to deal with the TGW Group, at least to cripple their career in the entertainment industry. I cannot tolerate such a group continuing to exist in the shadows. And the veMjic that I've planned with you is the sword that will pierce their entertainment industry."

"Then, I will use your identity to directly merge many entertainment industry departments that originally belonged to the TGW Group. You can think of this as exploitation, but those departments only recognize you. You might then have the space and leeway to fight your way back to the Toyokawa family from the entertainment industry."

"That's all I have to say. Please consider it." He spoke earnestly, as if he were directly confiding in Toyokawa Shoko.

Under normal circumstances, if Wu were to say such a thing, it would be an act of putting herself under immense pressure. If Toyokawa Shoko were a shrewd and calculating person, she could turn the tables and seize the initiative.

But who could blame him for figuring out Toyokawa Shoko's personality based on his behavior when he left Crychic? He made a preliminary assessment of Toyokawa Shoko: a god of victory when things were going smoothly.

Fourth, when everything is going smoothly and things are going well, Toyokawa Shoko will display amazing leadership qualities; once things start going against her, she will gradually be influenced by irrationality, and then negative emotions will accumulate.

Ultimately, it will turn into a disastrous situation where everyone is attacked indiscriminately.

His current goal is to leverage the firm and his support to make Toyokawa Shoko a favorable asset, turning her into a bargaining chip against the Toyokawa family. Of course, once this is accomplished, Toyokawa Shoko will also regain control of the Toyokawa family, so she won't be entirely used; she will also reap considerable rewards.

Jin Zhaozhi is not someone who unilaterally profits from high school students; at the very least, it should be a win-win situation.

After being treated with such sincerity by Imaizumi, Toyokawa Shoko was indeed moved.

Faced with President Jin, who had "cleared" the name of her beloved father and was also quite capable, she almost wanted to agree immediately, but only her long-standing habit kept her silent.

Finally, she stood up and gave her answer:

"I will not let veMjic down, definitely."

The young lady with light blue twin tails accepted Imaizumi's manipulation and reached an agreement.

Shoko Toyokawa now seems to prefer this kind of open use of her cards. And how should I put it, Teruyuki Imaizumi is probably an accomplice to her, since she initially also had the idea of ​​using Mutsumi Wakaba's identity to win people over.

Even if Ima Teruyuki hadn't told her all this, she would have had Ima Teruyuki use Wakaba Mutsumi's identity to recruit more valuable artists into the agency and create a higher-end veMjic.

Toyokawa Shoko knew that this was despicable and a way of using Wakaba Mutsu... but she could also assure her that Wakaba Mutsu would be treated well and that she would always protect her in the team.

——应捌√‰*°綺~≠鑥陆泤→贰招!秫≠羣:该.

Toyokawa Shoko felt certain that she would treat Wakaba Mutsuko, whom she had brought into the relationship, with the same honesty and openness she had shown to Ima Teruyuki.

"Also, I'd like to ask Toyokawa to help me compose a piece of music."

"Arrangement? Leave it to me, consider it a gift from President Jin." Now back in Shunfeng, Toyokawa Shoko finally regained some of her former self and possessed confidence.

With a confident, almost divine smile, she accepted the lyrics and corresponding arrangement requirements that Ima Teruyuki presented. "BIBIDIB? I understand."

“I’m very familiar with this rhythm, please give me 3 days.”

......

Toyokawa Shoko left with a heavy heart.

Zhao Zhi is already secretly champagne in his heart.

He lost so much money on Toyokawa Real Estate, but now he can finally make it back from the Toyokawa Group. No, it seems like he lost money, but in reality, he gained Toyokawa Shoko's trust with this loss, so overall he still made a profit.

Anyone else, if they could befriend Toyokawa Shoko, would be willing to pay ten or even a hundred times more than 3500 million yen—that's the value of Toyokawa Shoko herself. But she's still a student, and she possesses a certain arrogance that makes her unwilling to accept gifts or friendships, which is why she's in her current predicament.

Jin Zhao's use of "mutual exploitation" to break down her arrogant facade led to this conversation. ※)*″w·ˉ

As long as veMjic doesn't encounter any major problems, his agency will be able to take off after the debut of the second-generation live band. By then, the agency will have built a solid fortress on Bilibili.

Speaking of the fortified walls on Bilibili.

As an exception, Ima Teruyuki has prepared "BIBIDIB" as the debut song for Chihaya Aine, the agency's first virtual YouTuber.

He can't compose music, while Toyokawa Shoko's arrangement skills are very high.

"BIBIDIB" performed by Hoshimachi Suisei is a rhythmic song about virtual YouTubers that quickly surpassed 100 million views on YouTube at an astonishing speed.

Even though Hoshimachi Suisei's popularity played a significant role, the song itself and the accompanying music video were also a major plus. As Chihaya Aine's debut song, introducing virtual YouTubers to Bilibili viewers who were not very familiar with them through the song and music video seemed appropriate to him.

Chihaya Aine is about to debut.

The firm's development needs to be accelerated!

Main text: Chapter 43 (Chapter 42) Xiang's father: Sorry, I'm a good-for-nothing.

In the rehearsal room, the five first-generation trainees gathered for the first time.

Chihaya Aine, whom I've known for a long time, is holding a guitar and stands in the same area as Yutenji Wakanagi, who is sitting in front of the drum set. Nakamachi Arale stands in the middle in a relatively casual pose.

As for Takamatsu, he stood timidly beside her.

After meeting her in person, Kawara no Momoka retracted her assessment of Hitomi Hino, which was also her assessment of Takamatsu Akari. Putting aside her amateur singing skills, Takamatsu Akari has a very unique voice, and it's foreseeable that her singing will be very special; she's a promising talent.

If Arale Nakamachi's singing voice is purely functional and powerful, Akari Takamatsu wins with her unique vocal style, and Ayane Chihaya is the guitarist of the student council band, then there are different opinions.

A good voice is a gift from heaven, while singing skills can be trained in a professional manner. Even the most outstanding singing skills require talent, and virtual streamers and people their age do not need to reach the ceiling that is called an artist.

"For the current size of the agency, the president has indeed done his best." Kawara Momoka acknowledged Ima Teruyuki's judgment; the first-generation members were all quite good.

As for whether anyone envies the second generation's setup...

Kawara no Momoka might have a bit of that, but more than that, she was resentful and competitive. Kon Teruyuki told her that the first generation were actually pioneers who scouted the way, while the second generation were the harvesters and builders? Let's see which side is stronger and who ultimately has the highest popularity.

The first thing she's doing now is stabilizing morale among the troops.

"...We have a lot of vocals, so I will choose different lead singers depending on the song, which can also form the basis of our diverse styles. Simply put, listen to me."

Momoka Kawahara stood with one hand on her hip, her clean and efficient demeanor attracting a lot of attention.

Without Anjiu and Subaru in the fourth generation, and with the endorsement of Imjin's eighth team leader and the leading role of the fourth team leader, her style of doing things became much stronger. In order to live up to her salary and surpass the second generation members, she had to give it her all.

Chihaya Aine's eyes were already sparkling as she looked at the handsome and androgynous Kawara Momoka.

Clearly, Momoka Kawaharaki's style appealed to her.

Kawara Momoka looked at Takamatsu Akari:

"Takamatsu... no, Himiko-hime, I don't care about the individual roles the president assigned to you today, but I want you to be the lead singer for the band's first song, is that alright?"

"Me?" Gao Songdeng shrank back slightly, like a bird seeing a human. "I just want to chat with the audience. If that doesn't work, I can learn how to become a DJ..."

"No, even President Jin acknowledges your singing voice."

Momoka Kawahara corrected her, "I don't know you all very well yet, but I trust President Ima's judgment. As for who will have more parts besides the lead vocalist, that depends on practice."

Arale Nakamachi and Aine Chihaya both expressed their approval:

"I have no opinion."

"me too!"

"Very good! The meeting is over. You haven't eaten yet, have you? Let's go out to eat! I asked President Jin for an advance on next month's salary. I'll treat you kids to a meal, and you can buy me some drinks too..."

 Nine※←Eight¤~Hiss3sn∏%'▲FiveSoso: “......Huh?”

"What do you mean 'huh'? Haven't you ever seen team building before? Let's go!" Kawara Momoka, with the demeanor of a big sister, waved her hand and led the way into a nearby restaurant, letting the band form a group first.

If it's just a few people getting together to play music, like going to work, they won't be able to beat the professional second-generation team, nor will they be able to truly establish Momoka Kawahara's authority as the team leader. Building good friendships is the priority; practice isn't something to rush.

Because she hadn't finished composing the music yet, she didn't want to show her weakness in front of her teammates.

This is the dark, cannibalistic social dynamic among adults.

......

"You're saying he lost 3500 million?"

In the cramped little house in Akabane, surrounded by cans of Asahi draft beer in gold packaging, Toyokawa Kiyotaka finally turned around and slowly propped himself up, like an old, decaying corpse crawling out of its grave.

Unlike the spirited Toyokawa Kiyoshi whom I had seen in the commercial building, he now looked dejected, with an unnatural flush from alcoholism on his face, appearing dazed and lifeless.

His heart was dead; he had come to believe that he was a useless piece of trash with no ability whatsoever.

Faced with her father in this state, Toyokawa Shoko felt a mixture of disappointment and sadness, as well as sympathy and sorrow from within the Toyokawa family after learning the truth about his resignation. "Yes, Father."

"...Why didn't he sell it from the beginning? He wouldn't have lost this much money at the start."

"It's because he trusts you!"

This is a lie. Toyokawa Shoko simply used this explanation, which Imaizumi had never admitted, because she felt it would motivate her father. She carefully pushed away the Asahi draft beer in front of her, her tone earnest.

“Father, you were betrayed by someone within the Toyokawa family! Behind you, there are many people like President Ima who believe in you and in us. How can you not pull yourself together?”

"I was betrayed? Haha, Xiangzi."

A dejected Toyokawa Kiyoshi gave a self-deprecating laugh. "You think I don't know this? I do know. I knew as soon as I received the notification that that person had run away with 168 billion yen."

"...Father?"

Toyokawa Shoko was stunned.

Toyokawa Kiyoko revealed an expression far beyond what she had imagined:

"Tell President Jin to stop believing me. I don't even believe in myself anymore, so how can I expect others to trust me... I'm sorry to Mizuho who believed in me, and I'm sorry to him too. All those who once believed in me have been hurt by my laughable abilities. It's truly regrettable..."

The father before her was completely different from the father who was still alive when Toyokawa Shoko was a child.

He grabbed a can of Asahi draft beer, his hand idly fiddling around the tab. Realizing he was temporarily unable to continue, he slumped back down, muttering to himself:

"I have nothing left to offer him in return, so it's best if he stays away from the Toyokawa family as well. As for you, Shoko, don't worry about me. You can go back to the Toyokawa family..."

"Father..."

Toyokawa Shoko looked at him, her hands clasped tightly together. She wanted to reach out and help Toyokawa Kiyoko up, but found that she herself had lost all strength.

Without a sound, she stood up and went back to her little house.

That night, she pondered for a long time.

Shoko Toyokawa wouldn't allow herself to owe others without making amends; she also wanted to punish Sadaharu Toyokawa, who shamelessly said, "Forget Kiyoko Toyokawa and become my daughter." Her aristocratic upbringing also taught her that after her father Kiyoko Toyokawa was unable to repay his debts, she should repay Ima Teruyuki in his place.

Then let her bear the burden!

Let veMjic be his pride!

With this resolve, she took out the lyrics to "BIBIDIB" that Jin Zhaozhi had given her, turned on the desk lamp, connected her headphones, and began to compose silently on the small table, her heart calmer than ever before.

As for the electronic keyboard, I'll probably have to wait until I receive my salary from the firm next month to buy it.

Jue Zhengwen: Chapter 44 (Chapter 43) Bilibili: President Jin! #HandCryingHand

After the last B limit.

Ps*Ple's popularity on Bilibili can only be described as soaring.

In an era where even 1000 ships require creating a god-like figure, 2000 ships is simply outrageous. This means that Ps*Ple not only has a large number of anime fans in the live streaming section, but also attracts and retains users on the main site.

Today, the Ps*Ple account has nearly a million followers.

Among them, only a minority of fans actually pay; the majority are ordinary Bilibili users attracted by the hype of the 2000 ships, who then become casual fans.

With the agency's excellent cooperation and communication with Bilibili, the question has been basically settled: "Is your agency interested in having your artists come and receive the title of Bilibili's Top 100 Content Creators?"

How popular is WuPs*Ple on Bilibili?

Even if Ps*Ple only holds a Bilibili-exclusive broadcast once a month, like collecting rent, Bilibili users will still pay for it, especially since they broadcast very frequently and it suits Bilibili users' tastes very well.

During Ps*Ple's official live streams, the number of online viewers remained relatively stable at 2, consistently ranking first in popularity on Bilibili. This group of active viewers constitutes Ps*Ple's core audience.

For example, Maruyama Aya's "Let's Talk at 8 PM Tonight: Thoughts After 2nd Live" attracted an astonishing 4 online viewers, which made the Bilibili live streaming team members, who were usually ashamed during large meetings, stand up straight and even dare to look down on the game team.

Aside from FGO, a stable cash cow, Bilibili's investments in games like "Eternal Tree" and "Kamiyo: Dream Tale" have all failed miserably, earning them the derogatory nickname of "game graveyard" from players!

Some people say that live streaming is just a way to retain fans, and it can't actually increase the number of fans.

Si Zhong's regular live stream clips, which are fairly standard, consistently get over 10 views. That doesn't seem like much, does it?

This brings us to the amazing videos of Ps*Ple that consistently produce high-quality content.

Videos like "Ps*Ple All-Star Interpretation of Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Idol Don't Laugh Challenge" designed by Hikawa Hina are Ps*Ple's real tools for gaining followers, besides marketing and promotion. "Interpretation of Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has released four episodes in a month, with a total of over 10 million views, and has been a hit on the entire site every time.

She didn't even ask Jin Zhao for guidance.
