Becoming a great entertainer started with being cyberbullied.

After ending the group call, Wang Liping gave Fang Ruoxi an 'OK' sign.

"So, with 24 screens, we need to expedite the design and re-edit the music video that Brother Li filmed, cutting it into 24 parts. In short, we need to design it to achieve an artistic feel when they are played together."

"We also need to arrange sound equipment. Considering the flow of people here, we need to arrange sound equipment, otherwise people who are far away won't be able to hear the music," Wang Liping said one by one.

Zhang Xiaomeng followed beside him, taking notes of what he said in a small notebook, studying diligently, and striving to graduate.

"These all need to be done urgently." Wang Liping was very distressed about the money. "Sigh, we've really gone all in this time."

Fang Ruoxi said, "Send the total expenses to Xiaomeng later, and I'll pay half of the money."

"Painting Heart" is about to be sold.

The money arrived in the last couple of days, and she invested it all here. She wouldn't let Li Ming bear all the risks alone.

Li Ming waved his hand, "Hey, no need, you don't have that much money."

Fang Ruoxi looked at Li Ming firmly and said, "One thing at a time, Brother Li, this is business."

Wang Liping deliberately used his broken Hong Kong accent to say, "Hey, Brother Li, why do you look down on women? If someone wants to split the bill with you and you don't agree, they'll think you're looking down on them."

Li Ming was both amused and exasperated. He hesitated for a moment and then said, "You'll have to go to court to terminate your contract with Guanghua. Don't be stubborn. If it really doesn't work out, I'll pay for it first, and you can pay me back when you're better off."

Fang Ruoxi nodded, "I won't show off."

She hesitated for a moment, then told the truth, "The painting 'Heart' has been sold. Although I don't know why, Mr. Wei did buy it for a lot of money, and he is still promoting it online."

Wang Liping quickly opened his blog to check the relevant news.

Upon seeing the price of "Painting Heart," he immediately swore, "I'm gonna...!"

"Damn! When it comes to robbing people, it's you songwriters who are the ones who do it!"

He turned the screen to Li Ming and said, "Look at this, just based on this, she'll definitely be richer than you in the future!"

Back then, Li Ming spent a fortune, 500 million yuan to buy the rights to "The Lone Warrior".

Now, the 'Wei Clan' has changed its previous attitude of joining forces with the other two to 'besiege' Fang Ruoxi.

The official account spent a whopping 888 million yuan to purchase "Painting Heart".

Li Ming flipped through the pages. "The Wei family is still trying to promote their new movie. All the topics below are about the new movie, so they can save on marketing expenses."

Wang Liping gave Li Ming a strange look, sensing a hint of sourness in his words.

"Alright, things are settled here. Let's go back to the hotel to drop off our luggage, rest a bit, and then go out for a meal. You two just arrived, so hurry up and get some rest to adjust to the time difference and take a nap." Wang Liping, like a mother hen, ushered them into the van.

As soon as they got in the car, Fang Ruoxi and Wang Liping's phones rang at the same time.

Wang Liping answered the phone, "Hello?"

A long string of English words came from the other end of the line, but Wang Liping found it meaningless and simply handed the phone to Li Ming.

Fang Ruoxi looked at the notification from Bluebird, and heard Li Ming say in English, "We're in Times Square, New York now, we can't make it."

Then the other side got killed.

"Who?" Wang Liping asked.

"It's the editor of Rolling Star, but not the same one as last time. It's a different person. They said they could fill a blank page for them, but we have to go there now."

Li Ming frowned. "That person is acting strangely. He keeps asking us where we are. We've already said we can't get through, but he keeps asking us all sorts of questions."

Wang Liping pursed his lips and rattled off a string of words like a rap: "The bigger the forest, the more bizarre the bird species."

Rolling Star has been declining in recent years, huh? Let's just do a big one in Times Square this time, and we won't even need them!

Wang Liping gets so angry he wants to punch someone just thinking about Robin Harrison, who added five vomiting emojis to the English version of "The Lone Ranger" on Twitter.

Li Ming said, "I've heard from friends in the industry that Harrison from Rolling Star is a big player and not someone to mess with."

"At last year's Song of the Year Awards, there was a song that should have won, but the list was changed at the last minute and another mediocre song was given instead."

"There are rumors that Harrison is behind this."

Wang Liping said, "Relax, we're here to compete on the monthly trending list, not to conquer the Best Picture Awards. What can Harrison do?"

Li Ming agreed and nodded.

Fang Ruoxi was still looking at her phone.

"Ruoxi, what are you looking at?" Zhang Xiaomeng curiously leaned closer.

"Dr. B, the godfather of rap in country A, released a new song dissing Dean's new song 'Hot Baby'."

Upon hearing this, Wang Liping laughed and said, "Even someone as aloof as Ruoxi enjoys gossip?"

Fang Ruoxi put down her phone. "Dr. B has a very good reputation and is well-liked. If we're talking about who can get rid of the negative reviews from the editors of Rolling Star, I think he's a very suitable candidate."

Wang Liping was speechless.

"Dr. B? That's hard to see. We can't even get close to his circle."

Fang Ruoxi silently turned her phone screen around. "He just tweeted that he'll be playing this new diss track about Dean on repeat at his club tonight."

Dr. B's club is located in New York City.

"You want to ambush him at his club?"

"People like them would bring bodyguards."

Li Ming was not optimistic either.

Fang Ruoxi and Zhang Xiaomeng, on the other hand, were full of energy.

"Give it a try. If you do it, you have a 50% chance of success. If you don't, you'll fail 100%."

Li Ming was convinced by these words, "Alright, now you all go to the hotel to rest, and then we'll set off tonight."

Fang Ruoxi returned to the hotel to rest.

As dusk fell, life in New York City was just beginning.

Those who had worked all day or attended classes at university all set out after dark.

If you see long queues on the street, you don't need to ask; they're all places for eating, drinking, and having fun.

Dr. B's nightclub is located on one of the busiest streets in New York City.

Fang Ruoxi and her family's nanny van slowly pulled up to the side of the road.

The passengers looked across the street through the car window.

The club's name translates to "Blues," and by this time, a long queue had already formed outside the club.

Zhang Xiaomeng, not understanding, asked, "Don't we need to go down and queue up?"

Wang Liping said smugly, "Hey, let me teach you something."

He pulled a wad of cash from his pocket. "We have superpowers."

As he spoke, he instructed the driver, "Hey, go around to the back of this building. Does your electronic map show where their back door for taking out the trash is? Yes, stop there."

Fang Ruoxi and Zhang Xiaomeng: "..."

Ten minutes later, the group successfully entered 'Blues'.

According to the bartender who received a large sum of money, Dr. B has arrived and is in the members' area on the second floor.

However, the only staircase leading to the second floor is guarded by two stone lion-like bodyguards.

Those two stone lions—no, those bodyguards—were at least 2 meters tall and weighed at least 300 kilograms, all muscular and with fists the size of a clay pot.

In summary, the bodyguard's punch caused Wang Liping and the box to weigh 7 kilograms.

Wang Liping's eyes widened. "Alright, now the question is, how do we get up there?"

Fang Ruoxi looked around, passing over the men and women dancing enthusiastically in the dance floor, and finally stopped on the high platform where the DJ was.

"No, we're not going up."

“Let him come down.”

After saying that, she strode towards the stage where the DJ was.
