I'm busking on the streets with my kid, and my domineering CEO is helping me break into the mus

There is one hour left before the match starts.

A burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted from the hip-hop dance troupe.

Everyone looked along the sound.

On the stage, a blond young man was smiling and greeting the dance troupe members.

The young man was about 1.9 meters tall, slender, with fair skin and a pair of bright blue eyes. His smile was radiant and sunny.

Yang Xue and Gao Linlin are setting up the equipment.

Hearing the cheers, Gao Linlin subconsciously looked up.

His lips twitched involuntarily, and his eyes sharpened like a knife.

Ten meters away, the man surrounded by admirers was none other than her ex-boyfriend, Parker Johnson, a famous DJ in the top 100 of the United States.

As Zou Kai described it, the other person also looked in Gao Linlin's direction.

Faced with Gao Linlin's resentful gaze, Parker not only didn't get angry, but also smiled and waved in their direction.

Gao Linlin then viciously raised her middle finger at the other person.

This caught the attention of Yang Xue, who was standing nearby.

Yang Xue followed Gao Linlin's gaze and immediately had a guess in her mind.

Asked softly:

"Linlin, that guy is Parker...?"

Gao Linlin nodded slightly but did not speak.

Yang Xue gently patted her shoulder, her tone incredibly firm:

"Control your anger first, don't let it get out of control."

"I'll avenge you! We'll crush them tonight!"

These words warmed Gao Linlin's heart.

It has the confidence of someone standing up for their older sister.

...

Despite being from the United States, Parker is of mixed race.

Parker's father is Chinese, so he speaks fluent Mandarin.

His dual-track approach has allowed him to gain a lot of attention as a DJ over the years.

There are also quite a few fans in China.

Parker then began to adjust the equipment, loading his own music files into it.

But that didn't stop him from asking questions.

"Kai, this PK is quite a big event, it really surprised me."

As someone who is half Chinese, Parker perfectly inherited the Chinese philosophy of Yin and Yang.

He was seemingly describing his own feelings, but he was actually subtly criticizing the band for becoming worse with each generation.

The fact that you have to make such a big fuss when you're competing against an elderly entertainment group speaks volumes.

Zou Kai was an extremely intelligent man, and he immediately understood what the other person meant.

He responded with a smile:

"Although I'm a little annoyed that the other side is taking up my data."

"But the fans want to take this opportunity to make it lively, and it would be a waste if we didn't use the sponsorship fee of over 100,000 yuan."

"Besides, my opponent is Gao Linlin. She's so strong, I think it's perfectly reasonable to take her seriously."

Zou Kai's response was equally sarcastic.

The implication of the first sentence is: My club has sponsors and can raise hundreds of thousands of dollars in sponsorship fees. Can you do that?

The second sentence is even more incisive. It seems to be a serious assessment of the opponent, but it actually subtly mocks Parker's past plagiarism.

Fortunately, Parker was thick-skinned and chose to ignore Zou Kai's sharp words.

"So, Linlin is the main player tonight, right?"

Parker asked in a flat tone, while secretly devising a plan in his mind.

"Yes, that's why I asked you to come and help me with the performance."

"Although Gao Linlin's career has been so-so these past two years, I've listened to her music, and she's improved in terms of detail."

"In the group... I guess only you, senior, can handle this."

After listening, Parker paused in his work, his gaze slowly rising to the two people on the opposite stage who were also adjusting their equipment.

After a moment's thought, Parker urged:

"You are all top students from the music academy, the hope of the orchestra. Don't just play around all the time."

"One day, when you've established yourselves in the entertainment industry, I'll take you to explore overseas markets."

"You can't even handle Gao Linlin now, how can I feel at ease if you break out?"

Zou Kai nodded, and this time he did not refute.

After a brief silence, once the equipment was debugged, Parker suddenly called out again:

"Number 4 and Number 11, I've reviewed your information. You'll be in charge of livening up the atmosphere today."

This sudden order left the two female DJs following behind momentarily stunned.

Zou Kai suppressed a laugh, inwardly grumbling:

"Sigh... my senior's genes have kicked in again..."

"I hope these two girls don't have boyfriends."

DJ number 11 is a very pretty girl.

She pointed tremblingly to herself and stammered:

"I...can I, senior Parker?"

Parker smiled and naturally put his hand on her shoulder.

"Don't be afraid, I'll be here to protect you!"

The physical contact felt like an electric shock to girl number 11, because her boyfriend was the team leader.

But she couldn't break free at that moment, so she could only nod in resignation.

On the contrary, the fourth girl, who had heavy makeup and was equally beautiful, was more proactive.

She stepped forward with a smile and said:

"Senior, if I behave well today, could you give me your WeChat ID?"

Parker smiled and responded in a relaxed tone:

"That depends on your performance tonight."

"To my disappointment, it seems we can only communicate through messages in bottles."

Girl number 4 moved closer to Parker, stood on tiptoe, and whispered in his ear:

"Senior, I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

Parker turned to look at the other person, and the two smiled at each other, understanding each other without saying a word.

Parker's appearance gave Zou Kai a lot of confidence, and the weight in his heart was lifted.

Gao Linlin's appearance did indeed disrupt his rhythm.

...

VIP screening seats at Times Square.

Because they had received bribes from Zou Dayong, Guo Yan and a group of management personnel personally attended the event.

This is quite a show of respect.

Among the seats were some managers from the planning, operations, and execution departments.

Guo Yan is approaching fifty, and like other middle-aged greasy men, he has a shiny cleavage and a round, bulging belly that looks like he's stolen a piece of the door barrier.

Holding a thermos, he sat firmly in the center, exuding the air of a seasoned and experienced leader.

The other managers all gave Xu Yan, the executive manager, meaningful glances.

Because he had the shortest tenure and a straightforward personality, he was best suited to be a tool.

None of the managers agreed with the proposed changes to the guidelines, as they were too targeted, but they also dared not disobey their superiors.

They were unaware of this clandestine transaction.

Therefore, some managers only felt that it was General Manager Guo Yan's foolish arrogance.

"Mr. Guo, I don't think anyone is paying attention right now. Let's wait until after the event to announce the new live streaming guidelines."

"If those revised articles are seen by those with ulterior motives, it could very well create new public opinion."

With trepidation, Xu Yan spoke his most honest thoughts.

Guo Yan, displaying a commanding presence, did not respond. Instead, Cai, the HR manager who was around the same age as Guo Yan, spoke first.

"Xiao Xu, we leaders can't be afraid of trouble."

Do you know why we're launching it at this time?

Xu Yan shook his head, his eyes clear and bewildered.

Guo Yan glanced towards the arena and chuckled, saying:

Who do you think will win this match?

Xu Yan looked in the direction Guo Yan was looking.

"Whether it's the content or the scale, the hip-hop group seems to have a better chance of winning."

Manager Cai responded with clapping:

"So, for the old guys, this was a losing proposition from the start."

What's the difference between launching early and launching late?

"What kind of logic is that... Wouldn't it be incredibly stupid to win?"

Xu Yan's cheek twitched, and he cursed inwardly.

Manager Cai's far-fetched explanation failed to convince him.

At this moment, Guo Yan slowly spoke:

"The elderly are physically weak, and this incident serves as a wake-up call for the company."

"So regardless of winning or losing, we absolutely cannot open this door, even if it means suffering a short-term pain, we must seal it off!"

"But the president said we should respect the elderly... We still have to go through the motions, anyway, they can't win."

"It's better to give strong support; this will not only resolve the issue but also improve your reputation."

Compared to the HR manager, Guo Yan's explanation was more detailed.

"Mr. Guo, what you said makes a lot of sense, but what's wrong with delaying the launch a little?"

Seeing Xu Yan's puzzled question, Guo Yan snorted coldly, his face showing disdain:

"People these days are so hypocritical!"

"If we wait until the other team loses the game before going online, the public will definitely say that we are kicking them when they are down."

"Launch it online ahead of time to silence public dissent."

"Even if the opponent has a one in ten thousand chance of winning the game in an upset, the follow-up will simply be a compensation plan."

The operations manager quickly took over the conversation.

"Mr. Guo is right. Those old fogies will listen to you if you give them a little something."

"It just so happens that supermarkets and stores have trouble dealing with items nearing their expiration date."

“If we hold one every month and give them some compensation or discounts, they’ll definitely be very enthusiastic.”

"Everyone's busy grabbing supplies, who has time for square dancing!"

Xu Yan cursed the other party inwardly, calling him a fickle opportunist who had previously instigated him to provide feedback.

But he still acted as if he had just woken up from a dream.

...

Ding. Ding.

Sun Yue, who was making the deployment, suddenly received an audio message on her phone.

She glanced at the VIP seats and a smile played on her lips.

Just then, music suddenly started playing from the Kyoto hip-hop band's side.
