Become the attraction package for the girls in the band

"That's amazing, Xiao Mu. Your acting is amazing. I can only say it's superb. Your mother is really a bit ungrateful. I'm afraid she's jealous that you're better than her."

"..."

Facing Liu Hao's praise, Ruoye Mu clenched her hands and glanced at Yutenji Ruomu beside her. For the first time, the well-behaved girl looked at another person with such a sharp gaze, and in her heart she made the most "vicious" curse that the kind-hearted girl could think of -

If you really join the band, Xiangzi must write the most difficult drum piece for you!

Volume 204: Chapter Chapter I am your actor Si

Today is not the official shooting day, because the corresponding costumes are not ready yet, and the script is not perfect, so it needs to be adjusted according to the actual situation.

The fact is that Miao Meng complained about Liu Hao's exaggerated acting skills, and Miao Meng's own acting skills were not much better either. However, in comparison, Ruo Ye Mu's acting skills were sometimes good and sometimes bad. When he acted opposite Miao Meng, he was like a dragon and a chick, but when he acted opposite Liu Hao, he was able to completely crush him.

But it's not a big problem. According to the script at this time, Liu Hao is not going to appear on the screen. The two beautiful girls are already pleasing to the eye. It doesn't matter if their acting skills are a little worse. Adding Liu Hao in will not add icing on the cake. It will be out of place and may even cause some audiences to dislike it.

In addition, the script needs to match the existing editing level. Although Yutenji Wakamu is also an old internet celebrity who often shoots videos, his editing level is rough. Basically, after shooting, he changes the radio and adds background music and then posts it.

"No, although it's very visual, I can't do this kind of editing."

The three of them discussed the script for over an hour, although Liu Hao and Miao Meng were the ones doing most of the talking. As for Ruo Ye Mu, her explosive acting skills seemed to have drained her energy and spirit. The girl sat quietly and obediently as usual, but her golden eyes were filled with a hint of resentment. Her courage to find a new path did not bring her the future she wanted, and Ruo Ye Mu felt a little frustrated.

Liu Hao thought for a moment and said, "If it really doesn't work, I'll learn it and we can edit it together. It would be a shame if such a great resource ended up being botched in the editing."

"You? Learning on the spot? Is that okay?"

Yutenji Wakamai shrugged her shoulders and expressed her doubt about Liu Hao's words. After all, in her mind, Liu Hao had changed from an unlearned playboy to a kind but unlearned playboy.

"You're kidding! I might not be good at other things, but I've never been afraid of anyone when it comes to studying. We're alumni of Waseda University, so don't you give me some trust?"

"..."

Yutenji Wakamu didn't want to talk about Waseda University anymore. As for Liu Hao, he must have relied on his family's money to be able to go to Waseda University. Yes, that's for sure.

It takes about a week to prepare the costumes and polish the script. The three of them created a small group on the chat software to communicate the progress. The current plan is to be ready within a week and complete the shooting and editing within half a month.

According to Liu Hao's plan, it must be released at least before July, otherwise it will not catch up with the hype of "predicting the future".

Moreover, summer vacation is a peak period for various music festivals and concerts. If Xiangzi's band is successfully formed, they will also strive to perform during this period. Therefore, before that, Ruo Yemu must complete the resistance, otherwise her parents are likely to interfere with her performance activities.

"Miss Ruomai, are you really not considering joining a band like this? You have a basic drum set background, so I think you must have dreamed of becoming a musician. Even if it's just to build popularity for yourself, it would be a win-win situation."

Liu Hao just watched a video of Yutenji Wakamu playing drums. Judging from his perspective, Miao Meng's level is not much worse than Shiina Riki. She has just started rehabilitation after being out of form for a long time. With time, her level should be able to improve, and her popularity and appearance will also be up to standard.

"..."

Yutenji Wakamu knew what Liu Hao said was right. In fact, she was also very tempted. As Liu Hao said, with such a foundation in drums, how could she not have a dream of music? It was just that it was too difficult for a band from the bottom to make a name for itself, which made the opportunity before her even more precious.

"Let me think about it again."

"Okay, let me know when you've made a decision... The current band members will be at the agency for an interview tomorrow night. If you decide quickly, you can still make it."

"kindness."

Yutenji Wakamu sent Liu Hao and Ruoye Mu away. She was thinking about her own things and unconsciously raised the drumstick and gently tapped the drum.

It was indeed as Liu Hao said, Miao Meng had hit the jackpot. It was all the traffic she had always dreamed of. However, the benefits that came so easily always made Miao Meng feel a little unreal, and she worried that there was something fishy going on.

"Liu Hao..."

Yutenji Wakamu couldn't help but repeat the man's name. He always felt that he was different from the dandy boy she had imagined. He was too casual and unkempt. He even knew how to eat ginkgo nuts...

The drumstick in Miao Meng's hand stopped, and the studio returned to silence. Without the hustle and bustle of the three people just now, Yutenji Wakamai actually felt a little lonely for a moment.

Shaking her head, Miao Meng quickly drove out the strange thoughts in her mind. She patted her face and reminded herself that whether she agreed to join the band or not, she must remain calm and independent. She can take advantage of others, but cannot fall for them. She must maintain her self-esteem.

On the other side, Liu Hao and Ruoye Mu were walking hand in hand on the street outside. Perhaps because he was so immersed in the role that he almost kissed Ruoye Mu, Liu Hao was a little absent-minded for a moment. He only felt that Ruoye Mu's slender hands were smooth and tender, and the girl's softness made him want to hold her in his arms and cherish her freely.

In this regard, Liu Hao could only conclude that he became evil after tasting the sweetness, and Toyokawa Shoko took the blame.

"Xiao Mu."

"kindness."

"It suddenly occurred to me that with your impressive acting skills just now, could this backfire?" Liu Hao said, "If your mother sees her daughter surpass you, she might even want to control you even more and force you to just act."

"Will not."

Ruoye Mu shook her head. After removing her makeup, the girl regained her former charming beauty. Her light green hair was like a new willow in spring. The girl raised her face and said, "I can only act like that in front of you, A Liu. Even if I were to become an actor, I can only be an actor for you, A Liu."

Liu Hao was stunned for a moment, then smiled with relief. The little fingers of the two hands were hooked together in tacit understanding, and the romantic thoughts just now faded.

"I'm your idol, and you're my actor. We're a perfect match."

"kindness."

That's right, if Ye Mu didn't feel too disappointed at this time, although she failed this time, it was already a good start. The girl found a way to make herself braver, and she also knew that Liu Hao would not be able to control himself towards her. Her body and mind were not unattractive to Liu Hao.

"I will continue to work hard!"

"Yes, let your parents know that you are you, not anyone's vassal."

Ruoye Mu nodded, although the effort she talked about was not exactly the same as what Liu Hao understood. She would not be a vassal of her parents, she wanted to become a real woman.

Then the next day, Ruoye Mu felt wronged again——

It turns out that you are not only my idol, but also not just the idol of Xiangzi, Su Shi and I... This is too much!

Volume 205: Chapter Chapter Igniting the Fireworks Fuse

At nine o'clock on Sunday morning, Calpis' "Summer Sweet Love" advertising series was officially launched on major platforms. There are five versions based on the editing content. It caused quite a lot of discussion as soon as it was launched, and entered the top 50 of Twitter Japan's hot search list.

At the same time, Sumimi's new song and advertising theme song "Love Practice" also landed on major music platforms simultaneously, and topped the oricon streaming daily chart three hours later, triggering further discussion.

The seemingly booming scene so far is actually just marketing by the agency in collaboration with the advertising company. Regardless of whether or not they're optimistic about the song, they must have the necessary entertainment hype. Buying trending searches and traffic is just basic stuff. Otherwise, for a new song from a popular idol group, wouldn't it be unacceptable if it didn't top the weekly charts, let alone the daily charts? By then, the agency might even be infuriated by fans.

9 However, the subsequent situation even exceeded the firm's most optimistic expectations.

Originally, the agency only intended to buy less than 50 hot searches for this song, but in a short period of time, the keyword "Love Training" entered the top 20 hot searches on Twitter Japan, the top 10 hot searches on Facebook, and the number of views on TikTok Japan exceeded one million in five hours. The popularity on YouTube remained high. Remakes and covers of advertisements and songs emerged like mushrooms after rain in just half a day. Some of this was part of marketing, but the vast majority were done spontaneously by internet celebrities who were sensitive to traffic.

０ After half a day, there were seven keywords in the top fifty of Twitter Japan's hot searches related to Sumimi, "Love Training", Calpis advertisement, Mana Yoshimi, and Who is Yanagi Yoshi. It can be said that the popularity was unprecedented.

As a result, Si postponed the band's originally scheduled interview time by one day because everyone in the agency, including Chuhua and Mana, was busy taking advantage of the situation to run announcements, and there was really no extra manpower available.

3What is Liu Hao, one of the heroes behind this craze, doing?

Wu Liuhao is doing practice questions.

6 Although Liu Hao knew from the messages sent by Xiangzi, Su Shi and Wakaba Mutsu that the commercials he starred in and the music he composed seemed to have caused quite a stir, he did not live in Tokyo after all and could not feel that kind of atmosphere of dissemination, so he did not take it seriously.

⑷Since the band interview was postponed, Liu Hao could use the weekend to practice algorithm questions with his teammates and calm his mind.

Yesterday, Liu Hao almost murdered Ruoye Mudu, whom he regarded as his younger sister. Of course, he needed to stay calm. After tasting the beauty of the girl, he suspected that some evil thoughts were going through his mind. He had to recall the good times and the glory of his ancestors, and effectively control Xiao Liuhao's rebellious behavior.

Meanwhile, Xiangzi and Sushi need to calm down. Sushi even asks him which female anime character he likes, and Xiangzi indirectly asks if she should use perfume or essential oils... This arms race-like behavior is obviously over the top. They think handsome men are only for the strong, but they forget that mutual affection requires mutual understanding, not impulsiveness...

Well, this is also Liu Hao’s fault. Who made him unable to resist the temptation?

So it would be good if everyone could calm down a bit and realize that love is not everything in life.

"Old Liu, you exceeded the time limit on the third question... That shouldn't be the case given your level."

"Well, it's not a skill problem. Actually, it's because I've been in a relationship recently, which has affected my hand speed."

"Oh, that's not surprising... Nani, falling in love? You traitor!"

But Liu Hao didn't expect at that time that the success of "Love Training" would trigger a series of chain reactions, just like firecrackers on the fuse, crackling all the way and exploding in a very lively manner.

The next day, which was Monday afternoon, when Liu Hao went to RiNG's rehearsal room before meeting at the agency, he saw an unexpected person there - bassist Yawata Kailing.

"Hey, Hachiman-san, shouldn't you be preparing for the band audition tonight? Why are you here?"

Nagasaki Suyo didn't care about the content of the advertisement and said anxiously at the same time as Hachiman Kailing: "Lixi is missing."

"what?"

Liu was shocked. He never thought that the word "missing" could be applied to Shiina Riki.

"Lixi seemed pretty normal on Friday. What happened over the weekend?"

Chihaya Aine narrowed her beautiful eyes and pouted as she said, "Of course you don't know. You don't even look at the group chat and don't care about the band at all. After all, you're a big celebrity, so you definitely don't have the time."

The girl's tone sounded a bit sour, and Aine, who had a bright and cheerful personality, didn't want to be like that, but she just couldn't help it.

When she first learned that Liu Hao was being pursued by both Su Shi and Xiang Zi, she felt that this familiar pressure-resistant companion was a little strange. Now, because of the advertising and music composition, he has become very popular. There is even a hot search keyword "Who is Liu Hao" on Twitter, and people are discussing how such a person suddenly appeared.

This made Aiyin feel even more that the familiar Liu Hao seemed to be getting further and further away from her.

Gao Songdeng took the initiative to explain: "Since Sunday, I haven't been able to contact Li Xi."

"Sunday?"

Hachiman Kailing was more concerned about the matter itself. She frowned slightly and asked, "Is there any conflict in your band?"

"Contradiction? I don't think so..."

Su Shi had no confidence when he said this, and his face turned slightly red and turned to the side. The others subconsciously looked at Liu Hao, forcing him to shamelessly speak up and change the subject to ease the awkward atmosphere.

"Don't rush to find the reason... What's going on with Lixi? Is she not at home? Or can't I contact her?"

Liu Hao inquired carefully and found out that Li Xi did not come to work at RiNG on Sunday, but no one realized anything was wrong at that time. As a result, Li Xi was still not contacted on Monday.

At the same time, Li Xi took a leave and did not go to school. Her classmate Hachiman Kailing noticed something unusual and went to Li Xi's house, but found that she was not at home either. So she came to RiNG to see if Li Xi was busy with the band's work. Only then did she find that Li Xi was nowhere to be found, and she could not be contacted by phone or chat software. It was as if she had disappeared.

"So everything was normal on Saturday... Did anything happen on Sunday?"

Faced with Liu Hao's question, the girls in the band looked at each other, unable to think of any problem.

"Nothing happened on Sunday."

"Yeah, there's nothing much going on in the group. They're all discussing that commercial of yours, Liu... Humph, look at Mana's eyes, they're almost tearing, it doesn't look like she's acting."

"Yes, what happened on Sunday, that is, your advertisement and music..."

As they talked, everyone's eyes turned to Liu Hao again.

This made Liu Hao feel like an unwarranted blame was placed on his back: "You don't think this is my fault, do you?"

Chapter 1:

Chapter 206 Chapter You jump, I jump (two in one)

The question of whether it is Liu Hao is not the key. The key is to find Li Xi first.

In the end, everyone decided to use Hanasakigawa Girls' High School, Riki's house and RiNG as fulcrums, and act separately to search for Shiina Riki between these three points. They are all members of a band, and they agreed that no one can be left behind, so of course they have to help each other when others encounter difficulties.

Although no one knows why Lixi disappeared, she must have encountered something that made her confused. She is a person who is tough on the outside but soft on the inside. She appears cold on the surface, but she will not make unreasonable demands.

"Hachiman-kun!"

Liu Hao caught up with Yawata Hailing and said to her, "The band's audition is in two hours. It would be best if we could find Li Xi. If we still haven't found her by then, you go to the interview first and I'll continue looking for her."

Hachiman Kailing blinked, still wearing that serious expression she always had, and asked, "Aren't you going over? I remember you were the band's backup, right?"

"Yes, you're an official member of the band. You're very important, so you absolutely have to go." Liu Hao nodded and said, "I'm just a substitute in the band. It doesn't matter whether I go or not. Li Xi is relatively more important... But I don't think anything serious will happen to Li Xi. She's actually quite resistant to pressure. I guess she's just overwhelmed by something."

"Well--"

Hachiman Hailing held up her fair, round chin. Her beautiful emerald eyes, beneath her long eyelashes, looked Liu Hao up and down, making the latter feel a little strange. Hailing had a premonition that Li Xi might be involved in some bloody incident. Now it seems that her premonition and decision were both correct.

"I now believe that Lixi's disappearance might really be because of you."

"Huh?" Liu Hao asked, "Where did this come from?"

"Women's intuition." Death

"...Yes, this is rock 'n' roll."

Liu Hao didn't think that Li Xi's disappearance was due to him. Although he had taken a lot of blame, this weekend he was either discussing major plans with Ruo Yemu or dealing with complex codes. How could he have offended Li Xi if he hadn't done anything?

People should speak with conscience. I didn't expect that a bassist like Hachiman Kailing, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, could speak so humorously.

The sky in Tokyo today is a bit gloomy. There is no wind to disperse the moisture in the air, mixed with the various noises of a big city, making people feel inexplicably upset, and they wish the dark clouds in the sky would condense into rain and dew and spread it down immediately.

In theory, finding people is Liu Hao's specialty. He has found Takamatsu Deng, Aine, and Su Shi from the band. However, Li Xi's disappearance this time was relatively unexplained. She doesn't usually like to visit aquariums like Deng, so he really has no clue.

After searching like a headless fly for half an hour without any results, Liu Hao reported the situation to the group, and sure enough, no one had found Shiina Riki.

"Excuse me, are you Yanagi, who plays opposite Mana?"

Another girl held her heart, walked up to Liu Hao excitedly, and asked with anticipation.

"What?"

Liu Hao skillfully used English to express his situation in Japanese, which he couldn't understand, "Can you speak English?"

The girl was stunned for a moment, then quickly bowed and apologized, explaining that she might have recognized the wrong person, and then ran away embarrassedly.

This was the third passerby who recognized Liu Hao today, and Liu Hao had evaded them all. Fortunately, he looked quite handsome in the advertisement with makeup on, which was quite different from his usual unkempt appearance, otherwise he might have been recognized by more people.
