Toyokawa Shoko was still young, and the words she used were quite strong, reflecting the spirited demeanor of a student.
Clearly, Yue, Fei Qun: +: Ba Wu  ̄ Qi Liu!| Lu ¤÷ˉ¢ Si Er She had made up her mind to let her father, Toyokawa Kiyoshi, drink alcohol on live stream.
If the Toyokawa family feels ashamed of doing this, then Toyokawa Shoko feels even better.
She just wanted the Toyokawa family to be embarrassed and ashamed!
......
It's still a barbecue place.
This time, Jin Zhaozhi didn't have a private room or have her golden-haired fox idol cut barbecue for her and drink with her. Instead, she openly stayed with the other artists.
The people sitting next to him were all adults: Akiyama-sensei, Momoka Kawaragi, and Iji Tomoka. No one would say it was inappropriate... probably.
Judging from Maruyama Aya's expression, she seemed to think it was inappropriate.
The youngest member, Kaname, became everyone's darling, and everyone fed the little cat, especially Minato Yukina, who was pointing out the band members' future practice goals.
Yukina Minato and Risa Imai pulled her over to Roseli and fed her repeatedly. Somehow, Rakuna even had cat ear headphones on her head. She ate everything from matcha parfaits to grilled meat rolls.
"She's so energetic," said Mio Akiyama, a corporate slave, propping her chin on her hand.
Looking at this group of band girls, she seemed to see herself singing with Yui Hirasawa back then.
Kawahara Momoka sat down next to Imaizumi with her plate, seemingly unconcerned that some people were staring at her. "Come on, President, we're all adults, what's there to be afraid of? How about a drink tonight? I showed my former teammates our 500 million yen in ticket revenue, and they were all drooling with envy!"
Jin Zhaozhi smiled and chose peach wine, which was not much different from fruit juice.
Kawara Momoka started chatting with him.
"I heard you're planning to invest in a small company specializing in artificial intelligence?"
"Ah."
"I don't know much about investing, is that okay? Like the risks and stuff? The firm only spent 60 million to acquire a LiveHose in Shimokitazawa, right?"
She is trying her best to play the role of an assistant.
Unfortunately, due to her limited education, Momoka Kawaharaki couldn't do much more.
His face is full of confidence in today's photo:
"The firm has made too much revenue this time, and I don't like keeping money in my hands."
He almost forgot he had a money-losing system. This cycle, without a doubt, he would receive a money-losing welfare payment from the system, which would amount to several hundred million yuan.
Instead of the cold, hard personal funds that young people used to make their first investment, young people's initial investment is now being treated as cold, hard personal money.
Artificial intelligence is not like real estate; it won't experience dramatic fluctuations.
This time he played it safe and chose a small AI company that was neither mainstream nor niche. It didn't need to be like those big AI companies; it just needed to be able to create Nero.
"Oh right, that's right, I remember either the Genmaki Group or the Toyokawa Group are also working on artificial intelligence..."
Kawara no Momoka really didn't understand artificial intelligence, and could only manage some nonsensical remarks, which amused Iji Tomoka who was standing next to her. She smiled silently, a slight smirk playing on her lips.
Imaizumi could tell from Kawara no Momoka's amateurishness that she was just rambling on. She took out her phone and happened to see that in addition to the congratulatory message, Tsuzuki Shisen had also sent a new message.
[The owner of Tsuzuki: Watching the live stream.]
"?" Jin Zhaozhi didn't understand.
He clicked on the YouTube live stream link sent by Tsuzuki Shisen. Once inside, he found a rather cheap live stream interface, which was basically cobbled together from scraps and free materials from E-Company.
A 3D model that looks a lot like Kaname Yoru uttered a somewhat aged voice:
"I am Shishizi."
"While I was away, some of my colleagues in the music industry seemed quite arrogant. Have some of them wasted their time on music? Instead of focusing on making good songs, they're all paying attention to newcomers in the industry. It's truly astonishing how well you can produce such animalistic sounds..."
Main text: Chapter 106 (Chapter 102) I will arrange your ceremony! (3 words)
It was obvious that Tsuzuki Shisen had planned to come out and support E-Company.
In her youth, she was a guitarist who toured the country and held a high position in the Tokyo music scene. After SPCE closed, Shisen Tsuzuki seemed to be fading out of the scene to focus on nurturing the next generation.
Her daily routine consists of spending time with Rakuna and browsing E-Company, which interests her.
She was, of course, completely satisfied with the performance.
Everyone did their best. Roseli and Rise Len, who have performed at CiRCLE, have also made great progress. By the standards of professional musicians, they are both very good.
What surprised her most was the effect of the live broadcast.
The performance by the second generation was truly stunning.
She was initially skeptical of online live streaming and dismissed Kasumi Toyama's idea. Now she realizes it wasn't that online live streaming performances were bad, but rather that student bands like Toyama's weren't good enough. With a company like E-Company, which is willing to truly commit to the industry, the advantages of online live streaming become crystal clear.
In a real-life performance, only a very rock band would have the lead singer lie down at the beginning, but 3D models and animations can directly create a very beautiful effect, and the model texture is also very good.
After hearing the envious criticisms from industry musicians, Tsuzuki Shisen unleashed his full firepower:
"Some of my colleagues in the music industry are of low quality. Even when they criticize one to praise another, their serious lack of musical literacy makes it sound ridiculous! You don't even understand the concept of music. I don't even want to call you a colleague in the music industry. You're just a fourth-rate manager parachuted into a third-rate group!"
"Today, Grandma... Shishi, I'm going to curse you right here. You better remember this! If I find you barking like a dog on Twitter again, see if I can deal with you."
"Oh, right, your parent company is also a third-rate company! A third-rate group is a third-rate group, notorious in Tokyo, just acting arrogantly in the music industry because they have some capital. In reality, you're just stray dogs in the eyes of musicians! You're really stupid to come here targeting newcomers!..."
YoTbe is very familiar with her voice:
[Your voice sounds so familiar!]
[It seems a bit awkward to mention the virtual streamer's real identity, but her voice is so familiar that even my parents came over to ask me who this lady was cursing.]
[She seems to be referring to the most popular article on Twitter. Actually, I quite like Smimi, but who knew she'd end up with such a manager.]
Many girl bands aspire to go further, and quite a few dream of entering the professional scene, but why do so few actually succeed? It's all because of these incompetent but bossy managers!
[I'm a Ps*Ple fan. You guys have no idea how terrible the management team was before E社 changed its name. They not only left Ps*Ple to their own devices, but also made Chisato Shirasagi a model for the band's promotion. There were even rumors of them breaking up the band and sending members to solo careers, only to reunite them for publicity if necessary! Does this kind of thing even deserve to manage a band?]
[Guitar Hero: Shizi is right! If we follow the standards set by the person in charge, countless punk concerts in Europe and America would be criticized as narrow-minded and one-sided, which is definitely wrong! ...]
Overall, the comments largely agreed with Tsuzuki Shisen's statement.
However, large agencies in the industry usually control public opinion resources, making it easy to create hype. In addition, Twitter has never dared to tell the truth, so it is actually difficult for ordinary music listeners to unite in support of E-Company.
Even with people like Shisen Tsuzuki speaking up for E-Company, E-Company still faces a backlash in public opinion because many industry competitors are envious of the 500 million yen in ticket revenue from the Mixed Live event—a really big number.
Don't say things like "Black Sheep" is ultimately positive and encourages teenagers to show their true selves. In a climate of prevailing public opinion, the truth is hard to hear.
Tsuzuki Shisen has done the best she could.
Si Zhengfan, the head of Toyokawa TGW Group and the agency to which Smimi belongs, who was described by Tsuzuki Shisen as "a fourth-rate manager parachuted into a third-rate group," will definitely be red-hot after listening to the live broadcast.
Jin Zhaozhi was very grateful to her and sent her many thank-you messages, but they were all read and not replied to.
Among the celebrities who came here for dinner, only Goto Ichiri, who pays close attention to the virtual YouTuber scene, was watching Tsuzuki Shisen's live stream, because she follows all the accounts of virtual YouTubers who have announced their debut.
Recently, many small streamers have started broadcasting, but Goto Ichiri was not very satisfied with their reviews.
She shrank back, glanced at the calm Jin Zhaozhi, secretly took off her headphones, and turned off the live stream.
Since the president doesn't intend to tell others about industry opinions...
She just needs to believe in him.
Goto Ichiri had originally planned to use her account with nearly 4 followers to show her support, but it seems that Ima Teruyuki has other plans, so she decided not to act on her own.
Just like Ichiri Goto thought.
Jin Zhaozhi didn't care much about the industry's attacks on the firm. It's normal to be envious of making money. He was researching an artificial intelligence company and its research institute that the firm had recently acquired.
"For an AI company valued at 2.5 million, the firm plans to invest approximately 1.6 million to acquire the shares held by the original shareholders, totaling 64%... For the firm at present, this investment is acceptable."
Jin Zhaozhi was silently pondering as he flipped through the company's numerous documents.
Artificial intelligence is inherently expensive.
As a time traveler, Jin Zhaozhi naturally knows how hot the artificial intelligence industry will be in the future. From ChtGPT and Deepseek to more advanced language models, it's fair to say that artificial intelligence has become the direction pursued by the technology industry. It's perfectly normal for him to want to make some moves now that he has the capital.
With industry precedents, artificial intelligence is sure to be profitable.
Anyway, he wouldn't lose money this cycle, so it's normal for him to make some adjustments to his investments. He originally thought that Ruoye Mu's situation would cause him to lose a little money, but it turned out that the number of tickets sold didn't decrease by much at all.
As expected, his perspective as a time traveler was correct, and his micro-management was exquisite!
萋肆蕗旧&)琳°◇企捌ˉ」林中N:……
"I never expected such a shocking fact to exist!"
Inside the screening room, Genjuro Shin's face was filled with disbelief.
She is familiar with Roseli and RS, and they are all good friends. She is also studying in Hanasakigawa, so of course she paid attention to the group live performance announced by the agency.
After inspecting the studio of Heliosound LiveHose, the mysterious man in black in her house prepared a higher-spec holographic projection room for Xuan Juanxin, allowing her to experience the performance as if she were there.
After all, Kokoro Tsurumaki's family is quite well-off, a well-known family with some money. People who don't know the situation might exaggerate that her family controls 50% of Japan's wealth, or even 50% of the world's wealth... This is obviously an exaggeration. The Tsurumaki Group is just a leading multinational technology company in the world.
Of course, even without exaggeration, the size of the Genmaki Group is far beyond that of the Toyokawa Group.
Meanwhile, after watching the variety show live, Tsurumaki Kokoro's mind was filled with thoughts of the second-generation members veMjic and their opening animated performance. Her face was deathly pale. "There's actually a band where the lead singer was bullied and died! How terrifying..."
"That ◇〈`∠<⌒“‖$yHNn: Is it just for show?"
Genjuro gently touched her chest: "I can feel her sadness."
"It's just stage equipment!"
Misaki Okuzawa, who was invited, quickly corrected him, "That death performance was obviously an animation, not real! How could the lead singer sing for the audience if she died? They bought their holographic devices and motion capture equipment from your company, have you forgotten? Why would a corpse wear a motion capture suit?"
String Roll Heart is still very dissatisfied:
"But her sadness is real, isn't it? And so many other people who have shared their experiences are real too, aren't they? So many people are unhappy; we have to change that!"
So, the people of the String Roll Group began their operation.
It's impossible to directly demand that this situation be eradicated nationwide; this isn't something that can be solved with money. It's only possible if the Tsurumaki Group is truly the sci-fi conglomerate that reportedly controls 50% of Japan's wealth.
The establishment of private prosecutorial institutions and related aid funds by the String Scroll Group can only be done externally. It all depends on whether the students themselves are willing to break the group relationship between white sheep and black sheep, which is very difficult.
It's not a good idea to directly use capital stronger than the music industry to suppress these established agencies. That would disturb Kokoro Tsurumaki and her band's playful time at their little livehouse in Tokyo.
"In that case, why not support E-Company?"
Several bodyguards from the String Roll Heart Group discussed their course of action.
"The fact that ExElio Agency can sing such a song clearly shows that they have ideas in this regard. For the sake of the young lady, we can't just shut these agencies up, so let's support E-Company, which they oppose."
The enemy of the enemy is the friend.
If you can't directly attack the enemy, then support your friends.
"Then, how can we provide support?"
"Isn't ExElio Studio currently looking to acquire an AI company? We can contact them, tackle some of the challenges in AI, create a large AI model, and then, a few years later, pretend to be struggling financially so the studio's president can buy it."
One of the bodyguards came up with a good idea.
There's no way around it. As long as the young lady can have fun in the music industry, she doesn't care how much money she spends. The Wing-Wind Group can't actively suppress voices in the music industry for her; that would be breaking the rules. In the music industry, it's best to let the music speak for itself, and Wing-Wind Studio hasn't violated any rules.
The bodyguard in black listened silently, then suddenly said, "It sounds pretty good, but wouldn't that mean the AI company whose president just bought shares in is..."
"It's just a small amount of money. As long as the AI big model provides that president with free access to the interface to make up for his losses, there shouldn't be any problem, right? He also has financial backing, so he doesn't need this little bit."
"Yes, you're right, let's do it that way then..."
"If I remember correctly, Ms. Tsuzuki and Ms. Anwa in the industry are supporting him, right? There are many ways to raise funds, so he won't go bankrupt. Even if he does go bankrupt, we'll take over."
And so, amidst the hushed conversation, a plan to aid ExElio Studio was drafted. As for the Toyokawa Group behind Wing-Wind Studio, what are they anyway?
For the Genmaki Group, the Toyokawa Group has some influence in Tokyo, but that's about it!
(Also, I recommend a book by a very lovely author, "Can You Form an Adventure Team for a Lifetime While in Mygo?")
(Update times will be fixed at 8 AM and 18 PM from now on. Updates may be earlier, but they will never be late!)
Main text:
Chapter 107 (Chapter 103): Arale: Will this investment be successful? (3 words)
Jin Zhaozhi was unaware of everything that the String Roll Group had prepared.
He's still interacting amicably with the opera troupe.
Tonight's mixed-genre live show is a battle for the agency to change its status. No matter how much the likes of Wing-Wind attack him and his artists, the agency still managed to sell 100,000 tickets and secured a stable online live stream, immediately attracting the attention of competitors outside the music industry.
