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

Her original plan was to find a lead singer with lyric-writing abilities, but she's Chu Hua from Sanjiao. Chu Hua hasn't revealed whether she can write lyrics yet, so what to do now?

Crychic and his friends looked around, but no one knew how to do it.

Shiina Tatsuki broke the not-so-brief silence: "Never mind, let's talk about that later. An original song is a bit too ambitious. Shall we go to the practice room?"

......

Crychic decided to practice a song by someone else, and the song she ultimately chose was "Snny, Snny, Who Has Something to Rely On" by Morfonic, a girl band from Tsuki no Mori.

This song is led by a cheerful violin and features multiple rounds of singing, creating a relaxed and enjoyable listening experience. The singing style is upright and very gentle, making it ideal for beginners. After only a few listens, Arale Nakamachi successfully mastered the piece and became one of those who never made a mistake.

Half an hour later.

"...That can definitely happen! The most precious scenery that belongs only to us!"

"I've begun to spread my wings and fly high; I'm no longer afraid!..."

Ala Qilei put down the microphone, took a deep breath, and looked at her reflection in the mirror, panting heavily.

Inside the practice room, the group put down their instruments, and Crychic's first rehearsal was declared a success.

"Desw is amazing!"

Shoko Toyokawa clapped her hands with delight: "Hatsu... no, Arale! You really haven't heard this song before? That's amazing, so touching..."

Praise poured in like it was free for Arale Nakamachi.

When Mikami Hatsuka said she wanted to use her own stage name from the agency, Toyokawa Shoko naturally agreed, and when introducing her by name, she also used the name Nakamachi Arale.

The official Crychic account naturally mentions Vo.Nakamachi Arale.

However, after praising the band members, Toyokawa Shoko then mentioned the Butterfly Ensemble: "Hmm, without the violin, it feels a bit different from Morfonic's original style..."

"It feels pretty good. Arale's singing ability is actually quite impressive." Nagasaki Motoyo smiled as she uploaded the practice piece that she also thought was pretty good.

Shoko Toyokawa and Mutsu Wakaba's familiarity with the song goes without saying. The only one who made more mistakes was Tatsuki Shiina, which turned the pressure on her from others into pressure on herself.

She pursed her lips: "I'm sorry, I still..."

"No, everyone's amazing," Toyokawa Shoko corrected Shiina Tatsuki's self-blame. "I have a feeling that we're undoubtedly the five best people! If we get to know each other a little better, we might be able to perform together. Shiina-kun, you have no doubts about the original song, right?"

"As long as the lyrics problem can be solved."

"Lyrics, that's definitely a problem..."

Arale Nakamachi suggested, "We can only have everyone write their own lyrics, and then Shoko, you can decide whose lyrics best suit your taste. We are all beginners, so it's okay if they are simple."

Shoko Toyokawa agreed somewhat hesitantly:

"I've always felt that it's better for the lead singer to write the lyrics... Let's all give it a try."

A few days later, at the Red Leaf Coffee Shop.

The streets were still the familiar streets of Toshima Ward, except that SPCE had been fenced off and was slated for demolition and conversion into a parking lot. Humans do seem to have the ability to slow down the decay of buildings; after just a few days without anyone coming, ivy had already climbed over SPCE, and it was rare to see anyone pass by.

The spring sunset made her pink eyes even more vibrant.

Downstairs at the coffee shop, the other people from Crychic were waving at her.

Goodbye~

See you later, Arale! Contact me online!

Toyokawa Shoko bid farewell to Nakamachi Arale and got into her car with Wakaba Mutsu.

Nagasaki Motoyo smiled and waved before heading to a nearby train station, while Shiina Tatsuki walked home in the other direction. The setting sun painted the white walls red, casting long shadows on each of them.

After six days of practice, the band members had become much more familiar with each other.

"It's finally over! Two hours every day, even more tiring than working at a coffee shop." Arale Nakamachi breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the shop exhausted.

Jin Zhaozhi is lying on the sofa chair, scrolling through resumes.

These past few days, he's been at the agency handling the follow-up matters he's taken over, as well as reviewing young artists found by talent scouts who are interested in signing. After several rounds of review, two resumes were selected.

One was a livestreamer named Miaomeng, with almost no followers; she managed her account while simultaneously sending her resume to the agency. The resume was practically empty; what could a local girl from Kuma who had just arrived in Tokyo to prepare for high school possibly have? It was nothing more than an introduction about her willingness to work hard.

The agency thought she might meet Jin Zhao's requirement of "being able to accept a foreign atmosphere," so they kept this essentially useless resume.

Another is Chihaya Aine, a middle school student. She's interested in virtual YouTubers but also somewhat shyly indicated that appearing in real life wouldn't be out of the question. Chihaya Aine is currently the student council president and band leader, and will soon be studying in London, where she can continue her YouTuber career.

The resume is alright.

With Tokyo girl bands currently booming and the idol industry fiercely competitive, amateur singer competition contestants are almost never selected by Imaizumi Teruyuki's agency; they can only choose those at the level of Nyanmu Aine.

He put down his phone and looked at Ala Lei: "How are you feeling?"

"Pretty much. Everyone's easy to talk to, and their skills are all top-notch." Sigh.

Arale Nakamachi said.

After several days of working together, the members of Crychic felt the band was pretty good and generally satisfactory. For a junior high school band, they were definitely among the most skilled.

The band's linchpin, Shoko Toyokawa, also has a lot of charisma and is very similar to the shop manager, Teruyuki Imai.

But compared to the two, Arale Nakamachi still felt that the shop manager was more admirable.

She quietly inquired and found out that the Red Leaf Coffee Shop had depreciated by nearly 500 million yuan. The shop manager acted as if nothing had happened, and instead continued to confidently buy a small firm, even giving her a paid learning job.

After a pause, Arale mentioned something else:

"That drummer seems to have some difficulty accepting the fact that she's the worst player in the band. How should I put it, she's a very competitive person, probably because of her sister."

Arale Nakamachi gave Imaizumi a detailed analysis.

Shiina Ritsuki was always overshadowed by her outstanding older sister from a young age. No matter how hard she tried, there would always be an even more outstanding older sister, and she would always be called that outstanding older sister's good younger sister.

Originally, Shiina Tatsuki had worried that "the lead singer might not be able to sing" after hearing Toyokawa Shoko introduce him as an amateur with no musical experience, but now it seems that he was worrying unnecessarily.

How can there be a lead singer who can't even make a sound and needs to go to karaoke to practice their courage?

Even if such a person existed, Toyokawa Shoko wouldn't choose him for Crychic.

Fourthly, unlike the bass, which is also part of the bass line in a song, there aren't many songs that emphasize the bass. Even if Motoyo Nagasaki is lazy or slacking off, it won't be so obvious. The drummer is different. Shoko Toyokawa tried composing some songs, and she likes to write songs that strongly emphasize the rhythm of the drums.

Simply put, it means not treating drummers as human beings, but using them as machines!

The fact that she was the weak link in the band was something that Shiina Tatsuki found hard to accept, so Nakamachi Arale watched as her drumsticks were replaced in just a few days, which was simply terrifying.

"This isn't a matter of diligence anymore; it's a problem with the strength of her drumming," Jin Zhaozhi said.

He also remembered accidentally seeing a drummer named Shiina Ritsuki open a bottle with one hand.

I don't even want to think about what would happen if that hand were on a person.

8. "So, store manager, are you interested in investing in Crychic?"

"I do have high hopes for Crychic. They have the potential to become a huge hit. They have the eldest daughter of the Toyokawa family, the daughter of a famous actor, and a drummer. All three of them have great charisma and star quality. However, the eldest daughter of the Toyokawa family probably doesn't need a small role like me to invest in them."

Jin Zhaozhi touched his chin, feeling that he had no room to make a move.

Consider it a chance for Arale Nakamachi to relax and unwind.

Moreover, his agency and the music industry are just side businesses; if he really wants to make money, he still needs to...

Jin Zhaozhi opened the stock trading app on his phone, and Fengchuan Real Estate, whose stock price movement was described as volatile, caught his eye, making him extremely happy. In the past few days, he had used his personal funds to gradually acquire Fengchuan Real Estate shares worth 40 million yuan, and had already made a profit of nearly 2 million yuan.

"Otherwise, why would the Toyokawa family be considered an old conglomerate? The older generation stabilizes the conglomerate, the middle generation makes money steadily in real estate, and the younger generation goes into the entertainment industry. This formula is used in many countries."

For Imaizumi, Toyokawa Real Estate is his god.

As a result, Toyokawa Shoko became much more pleasing to the eye.

The money in the losing system was injected into the firm, and he was not allowed to use the money in the firm's account to speculate on stocks, nor was he allowed to borrow money from banks to leverage stock speculation. So he had to rely on himself.

In a few days, the losses of Red Leaf Coffee Shop will be fully recovered.

Jin Zhaozhi thought to herself with a cheerful mood.

Looking at the profits he made from his Toyokawa Real Estate stock, he would have hummed involuntarily if Arale Nakamachi hadn't been there. There was no need to discuss the speculative gains with her.

Zhongzhong Fengchuan Real Estate held a press conference to announce a 168 billion yen real estate development project; its stock price is expected to continue rising.

Zhuan Jinzhao also had doubts, wondering if the 168 billion could be a scam, and whether he would lose all his personal investments, be ridiculed by the system again, and tearfully accept the system's money.

However, 168 billion yen is rather small for a conglomerate of this size, and there's also the risk of retaliation; the return far exceeds the investment. In other words, the appreciation of Toyokawa Real Estate is a foregone conclusion, unless a scandal so egregious as to force the president to resign, his investment will not be a loss.

He felt at ease boarding this train from Toyokawa Properties.

I lingered there, satisfied, watching the surge in Fengchuan Real Estate's stock price, before finally returning to reality.

He didn't even dare to imagine how much he could earn in this cycle. The firm might suffer a small loss, and the coffee shop might continue to decline, but none of that would affect the overall situation.

"Let's take a look at Ps*Ple in the distance instead."

Zero opened the pink app from the other side of the strait.

【Pstel*Plettes!】

[Lv1/Annual Premium Membership]

【Tokyo EventsしているIdol-GirlsBnd、Ps*Pleです! Barely able to speak Chinese?(ˊ?ˋ)?! #PPrt #Subtitle group...notification group...]

6. [Number of followers: 1]

[Number of followers: 9.2]

[Number of likes: 1.2]

[Number of views: 30.5]

The poster's profile picture is a group photo of the five members of Ps*Ple.

The agency acted quickly. After Ps*Ple registered an official Bilibili account, they immediately contacted Bilibili to purchase data packages, and now they have a decent number of followers, at 9.2. Ms. Miaomeng, who submitted her resume to the agency, only has 2.9 followers so far.

To prevent the audience from splitting, Jin Zhaozhi didn't have the five members create separate accounts. Going forward, they will take turns broadcasting on the official account. Let's focus on building up one account first.

Currently, Ps*Ple's official account has three videos: one is a self-introduction video with only a few thousand views, and the other two are videos of the band playing two well-known ancient-style DJ songs from mainland China in the recording studio. Unsurprisingly, "Foreign idols singing ancient-style DJ songs from Shatou" has become a hit.

Although it became popular after purchasing traffic support.

"Pear blossoms fall before your window, a woman in a painting laments in her boudoir..."

"Having mistakenly entered the imperial palace, I urge you to lay down the sand in your hand..."

Watching Maruyama Aya, dressed in a cute pink idol style, earnestly sing the Japanese versions of Shatou folk songs "Weak Water Three Thousand" and "Memories of Farewell to the Nine Gates," the comments on the other side of the strait were completely stunned.

Japanese idols singing traditional Chinese style songs? Is this something you should be singing?

[Look, they're singing again... wait, who are you?] (Sob)

[I understood, but I didn't get it] Qi

Who put this on my phone?

[Who on earth chose these songs for these idols? Aren't they all just shabby tunes? I'm begging the management, please stick to some traditional Japanese ballads or J-Pop, stop making these idols sing ancient-style DJ music!] Wei

It's true that you need to understand China to make a living here, but could you please not be so overtly knowledgeable? It feels like someone is forcibly dissecting and scrutinizing a unique subculture, which is unsettling...

[I'm begging you, agency management!]

"Beg me? You'd have to wait in line!"

Jin Zhaozhi snorted. And...

His new design for Ps*Ple is to start with subcultures, focusing on cuteness and abstraction... no, cuteness and relatability, not abstraction.

What's wrong with DJing ancient-style songs that people on the other side of the strait love? Judging from the nearly 30 views, Bilibili viewers obviously really enjoy listening to them; they're diverse and receive rave reviews.

As for why Shatouge is called Shatouge and what it means, the Japanese idols don't understand.

Let's take a look at the Tokyo-based band fterglow. The keyboardist, nicknamed "Ibaraki-doji" by fans, has a name that's not much different from the ancient-style DJ "Weak Water Three Thousand" that I chose.

On my first refresh, Ps*Ple released a new video:

[Bilibili Exclusive Livestream Announcement! ......]

In the video, Aya Maruyama, with pink twin tails, waves her hand and looks very happy: "Hello everyone on Bilibili, I'm Aya Maruyama, the lead vocalist of the idol band Pstel*Plettes!"

Her long string of words was all in Chinese.

Although her pronunciation was awkward and strange, Aya Maruyama looked cute and energetic enough.
