Losing money, mygo, what does it mean that I really lost money?

There will definitely be extra chapters, and there will be a reward next month. You can rest assured that I'm very motivated to improve.

When I first started writing the book, I thought I would write it if I got 800 subscriptions, but I would write it anyway. The results I have achieved so far are really beyond my expectations.

Being so kind to my godfathers, it is no exaggeration to say that I am deeply humbled and apprehensive.

Therefore, I will definitely do my best to write.

After it's published, there will be no more than two updates a week due to the update schedule for the recommended slots. But I will immediately open a bounty in November, a week later, and then pay it off at lightning speed with a maximum of seven updates a day!

See you when it's available!

Main text: Chapter 59, Chapter 56: Piercing Nina's Heart Wall

Jingqin Rencai has always been hesitant about whether to form a band.

Si's wish is to go to university, not to form a band.

If SN forms a band, she might not get into university. Fortunately, if she calculates the timeline, she can work as a virtual YouTuber before getting into university this year, and then form a band afterward, which is perfect.

After a brief conversation, Ms. Yutenji Nyanmu, who is also from Kumamoto, privately persuaded Wu to agree to join the second generation of trainees, as the treatment of artists from the agency is quite good.

After conducting research on prices in Tokyo, Riku formally accepted Toyokawa Shoko's invitation.

She'd rather have a part-time job in Tokyo to make ends meet than have to go back to Kumamoto because she's short of money.

In her hometown of Kumamoto, she dropped out of school because she opposed bullying.

The stories of students are always so cliché.

After reporting the bullies, not only did the situation remain unchanged, but she also became a target of bullying herself. Neither the school, family, nor friends stood up for Renna; instead, they advised her to let it go.

Jingqin Rencai could not accept such a thing.

Even if my views contradict everyone else's, I will still do what I believe is right. I will do what is right no matter what. If I am not accepted, I will leave.

So, Izare Renna left the school and hometown that she hated.

These are all the thoughts of Jing Qinrencai, who dropped out of school in her hometown.

Then, today.

She saw the "Return to Motherland Province"

The "black sheep" in the title comes from the "black sheep effect." Just like "school bullying," a group of people bully one person while the others stand by and do nothing. This phenomenon is called the "black sheep effect" in psychology.

The butcher always has to kill one sheep in the flock. When the fleeing sheep spot a black sheep among the white sheep, something strange happens. The white sheep will help the butcher hunt down their fellow black sheep, because they believe that as long as there is a victim, they are safe.

Jingqinrencai is that maverick black sheep.

The lyrics describe the black sheep being ostracized by the white sheep. Although the main accusation comes from adults controlling and distorting minors, Izayoi Rinna still sees her own reflection in the strongly present piano and bass. "Black Sheep" is Izayoi Rinna's song.

Those who abandon their true selves to pretend to be Aries / Will they find a Black Sheep to point at and mock? / Even so, I will always exist here, out of place, no matter when / Even so, every moment.

If we say that "Shiori" represents the warm care and love that the first generation members showed for Takamatsu Todora.

So, "Black Sheep" is the lyricist's way of protesting injustice from the perspective of a black sheep, yet still "stubbornly" declaring that even if everyone laughs at me and everyone opposes me, I will continue to exist as a discordant voice. Those who oppose Black Sheep, laugh all you want!

Thus, the wall of Jingqin Rencai's heart, which always likes to pursue correctness and is sensitive, was pierced.

It was like a lightly armored ship encountering the most powerful armor-piercing shell in history.

The hollow space pierced by the lyrics revealed her heart, which had actually been moved elsewhere long ago. Her heart, bright red and vibrant, beat lively in its original place; all emotions could be expressed only by her heartbeat.

The lyrics of "Black Sheep," and the songwriter and composer of the song, gradually became blurred and indistinct in Izaya Rin's eyes. She wanted to express some of her emotions, but didn't know where to begin.

She heard Toyokawa Shoko's voice.

"Enjoy the feeling! Everyone, please come over next door."

Toyokawa Shoko was very understanding and led the group backstage.

The place is spacious and well-insulated; the first floor alone can accommodate 20 people at a time. The fact that Jinzhao rented it at such a low price is simply because nobody else comes here.

At this moment, Jin Zhaozhi is here processing the dubbing requests sent by Hypergryph. ◎◎〗：肆″△贰∪↑

Noticing Toyokawa Shoko, he stood up. "What's wrong?"

Shoko Toyokawa said, "Nina read your lyrics, and they were so effective. I haven't even had a chance to encourage her to learn bass to complement her vocals yet."

"Indeed. Just reading this song, the lyrics alone must have stirred her emotions."

"How did you know that the lyrics were about her?"

Shoko Toyokawa was a little curious.

Now, she not only believes that Teruyuki Ima has a keen eye for the music industry, but is also an excellent lyricist. Even more regrettable is that he doesn't want to be called a genius lyricist, but rather a genius investor in the Japanese business world, a god in the idol industry, and so on; the lyrics are credited to his agency.

"Because her expression is always written on her face."

"Imazo said briefly. He thought for a moment and added in a reminding tone, "When I was discussing veMjic's style with you, and I mentioned her opposition to adult discipline, the look she gave me told me everything. Especially when she said her favorite song was 'Empty Box'."

"I see."

For some reason, Toyokawa Shoko immediately thought of Wakaba Mutsu, who was standing next to her.

I wish I could understand more of Wakaba Mutsu's emotions.

"Is it an accusation against adult discipline and control? Well, this song is a bit too damaging to minors, and its impact seems to extend beyond her." Anhe Mao scratched his cheek.

Jiu felt that this song was about her, and it seemed to be about more than just Jingqin Rencai.

Clearly, unlike her calm face that still wore a faint smile, An and Subaru also highly approved of the song. "I will play 'Black Sheep' well. I promise."

Ba Ruoye nodded silently.

Even though the four members of veMjic are not yet familiar with each other, the song "Black Sheep," which can be described as a student special attack, is enough to make them willing to cooperate sincerely for the first time, at least to play the song well.

This is a very powerful song. The original lyricist, Yasushi Akimoto, not only understands idols and girl groups, but also understands the audience of the girl group he created.

"On the one hand, veMjic aims to produce unique dark gothic music, and on the other hand, it also aims to produce songs like 'Black Sheep' that express the rebellious spirit of teenagers and protest against adult control. Judging from your expressions, you shouldn't be opposed to it, right?" Jin Zhaozhi introduced his vision for veMjic.

Thirdly, it is clear that people at veMjic largely agree with his main point.

On the surface, it seems like Zero is the one who wants to control these young girls and make money. In reality, however, things are already much better than the oppressive industry.

The original vocal group for "Black Sheep," Keyakizaka46, had three members, including center Yurina Hirate, faint at the 2017 Kohaku Uta Gassen, often referred to as the "Japanese New Year's Eve Gala," due to overwork. They were performing at a high intensity almost every day, singing against adult control, and then being controlled to make money.

Jin Zhaozhi certainly doesn't want his veMjic to turn out like this; if someone were to faint during a performance, who knows how much they would lose.

Main text: Chapter 60, Chapter 57: Nina, you only lack a little help from capital.

Jin Zhaozhi is confident that he treats all the artists in his agency well. With generous treatment and emotional support, his leadership is remarkable, and the artists are all very happy.

There is absolutely no possibility of someone suddenly fainting during a performance, unlike Keyakizaka46.

He looked around at the veMjic members. Apart from Inoue Serina, who was hiding in her room and secretly crying, and a guitarist who was still hesitating, the three of them seemed to be getting along very well.

Introduced by Toyokawa Shoko, Wakaba Mutsumi and Anwa Subaru, both from families of famous actors, quickly struck up a conversation, with Wakaba Mutsumi at least managing to say a few more words each time. In other words, he now needed to eliminate the final risk and completely solidify the foundation for veMjic.

Jin Zhaozhi said, "I'll go check on the radish."

Toyokawa Shoko was a little surprised, but quickly understood: "Hmm. I may not know much about caring, but Dolores probably needs someone to talk to her right now. Please, President."

Are we still going to call her Dolores now? Xiangzi, you're really too professional.

He said goodbye to the three veMjic members who seemed to be enjoying the atmosphere of the nine-year-old. When he arrived at the place of Izanagi Jinna, he found that the scene was not the loud crying of a child that he had imagined, but just a simple tearful wiping away of pearls.

When Jingqin Rencai heard Jin Zhaozhi's footsteps, she was startled. She quickly wiped her eyes, straightened her head, and looked up at him with an inexplicably brave posture.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, my vulnerability ends here!"

Jin Zhao is full of questions.

"Which comic book did you read it from?"

Jing Qinrencai's straightened back went slumped again. "I just found it. I'm a year older than them, how can an older sister cry in front of her younger sister?"

She wants to maintain her senior status, just like Ms. Momoka Kawaragi.

Furthermore, Izare Nina is the shortest among the current members of veMjic. Wakaba Mutsumi is a little taller than her, Toyokawa Shoko is a little taller than Wakaba Mutsumi, and Anwa Subaru is the tallest. This makes her even more eager to show off.

“Let’s talk?” Imaizumi pointed to a chair next to him. “I provided the lyrics for ‘Black Sheep.’ I also serve as the producer for both the first and second generation members, so you can talk to me about any issues you may have. I will always stand by my artists, so don’t be afraid.”

He gave the somewhat timid Jingqinrencai an encouraging look.

"So it was the president! I saw the agency's name in the lyrics section, I thought it was written by some other staff member in the agency..."

Jing Qinrencai's courage, which had been shattered by his words, began to gather again. She excitedly pulled the chair up to her bottom like a child and sat down, saying, "Let me tell you beforehand, I did nothing wrong."

"Of course you're not wrong. My Zhong Q: just ∝4捌%∶寺}∠sn≯）sn●∵ artists can't be wrong."

“No need for that… I just felt a bit touched by the lyrics, because it’s about me, I am that black sheep.” Jingqin Rencai lowered her head, picked up the sheet music, and traced the lyrics with her fingertips. “By the way, I didn’t cry much, I was just moved.”

“Yes, Nina is really strong.”

Jin Zhaozhi glanced at the sheet music.

Well, it must be because the paper is of very poor quality that it wrinkles so easily; it certainly wasn't soaked in liquid first. How long has this child been crying quietly?

Perhaps not wanting to appear childish in front of Jinzhao, Izana began to force herself to describe her school experiences in an objective manner, using phrases like "perhaps there were reasons" to describe the friend who betrayed her. Even though she felt wronged and resentful, she forcibly suppressed it.

"...So, I left Kumamoto."

She recounted her story of becoming the black sheep of bullying. Because she had nowhere to vent her urges, she kept rubbing her fingers against her thighs, almost wearing through her black pantyhose.

As Jin Zhao listened, he seemed to be deep in thought.

Normally, the first thing to do after listening to such a story is to affirm the storyteller, Izayoi, and say that she is right. First, emotionally affirm the other person and show that you are on her side.

Now, Zhao Zhi not only wants to do this, but also wants to search N:九≤〃羓％∧3↓…＄← to do more.

“Of course you’re right, Nina. We’re all right, but being right doesn’t mean we’ll be accepted by the group. Just like in a game, not making mistakes doesn’t mean we can win.”

"So does that mean the masses can ignore what's right? What about us?!"

Jingqinrencai's voice rose a little.

Jin Zhaozhi replaced "you" with "we," and Jingqin Rencai didn't find it strange.

He looked at the bewildered and innocent Jing Qinrencai, and held up one finger. "No, what I mean is, you're only a little bit away from media exposure from capital. Since the group can become an ally of the bully, it can certainly become ours too."

"A small favor from the capital?"

The country boy from Kumamoto was bewildered.

"Make those who bullied you pay a hundredfold."

"Once you become a lead singer with considerable fame in Japan and even the world, your school will be kneeling before you, Nina. They will do everything in their power to beg for your forgiveness and will shed tears for their mistakes. Just imagine how much the school is willing to go to promote you as an alumnus..."

"No, I'm not like that..."

“Revenge is the right thing to do, Nina.”

This discovery has opened a door for children to learn about the benefits of vegetables.

"If you calmly laugh off those who bullied you too, and only hurt yourself with sadness, then wouldn't you become the kind of person you despise who ignores bullying the most? Listen to me..."

On the other side, Anwa Subaru, Shoko, and Wakaba Mutsu tried practicing "Black Sheep" a few times. Thanks to everyone's strong skills, they directly progressed to the first chorus.

She looked at the other guitar on the sheet music and suddenly remembered, "That's right, Xiangzi."

“I am Oblivionis, you can also call me Captain.”

"Okay, Captain, where's the other guitarist?"

"She's an online guitar streamer, Guitar Hero, and currently active in a three-person band." Toyokawa Shoko took out her phone and played a video of Guitar Hero.

The strings were intense and captivating, and Ruoye Mu almost instantly concluded that she was inferior to her.

An and Subaru listened for a while, and became somewhat curious:

"You mean, there's a band now?"

Why would she come to veMjic? Did she also end her band?

Toyokawa Shoko snorted.

“Music and bands are free. There are no rules like you can only practice if all the members are present or you can only join one band. It all depends on how much they mean to you. She didn’t join as a student, but as a guitar hero, and her band members wanted her to join as well.”

Normally, I play around with the band "Bayuan" as a student, which led to our close relationship. →∴Zero∝∩”

In my professional career, I joined veMjic to pursue even higher goals.

There's no conflict between the two. Besides, the other party's wish is for a dazzling band. Doesn't veMjic shine on stage? Toyokawa Shoko doesn't think so.
