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

Jiang Xiaolong was speechless, taken aback by Yang Xuebang's tough attitude.

While Yang Xue was furious at Tiancheng's despicable behavior, she also resented Jiang Xiaolong's distrust.

But in reality, this is precisely Jiang Xiaolong's personality: cold on the outside but warm on the inside, always thinking of others.

Yang Xue took a deep breath and said in a cool voice:

“Brother Long, you, Yan Yan and I are like-minded. Although I have some selfish motives when we work together, I also have my own integrity and bottom line.”

“I feel very uncomfortable about what you said to me today.”

"I'll take everything you said today as drunken ramblings. It's too late, let's talk about it tomorrow."

As soon as she finished speaking, she stormed off toward Zhu Yan.

Jiang Xiaolong was left completely bewildered.

After getting into the car, Yang Xue gradually calmed down and composed herself.

Yes, half of her excitement just now was a deliberate act.

This was to reassure the other party.

"Compared to talking about emotions, ideals, and ambitions, expressing emotions directly is more suitable for someone like Brother Long."

"Perhaps this way, he won't be so hesitant and timid..."

...

Night, in an old but clean room.

Yang Xue took a quick shower, her hair wrapped in a towel.

Lying on the hard bed, she finally felt relieved of all her fatigue.

In the darkness, she was clearly exhausted, yet inexplicably unable to fall asleep.

Perhaps it's because there are too many follow-up concerns weighing on my mind.

For example, summarizing what we've learned, what we need to pay attention to right now, and planning for the future.

...

[Ding, system notification: You have 320 points.]

As someone with access to the system, Yang Xue had to check her points.

Through this competition, Yang Xue gradually realized the importance of the system.

Initially, its effect was not obvious because it somewhat conflicted with Yang Xue's major.

It's a skill that adds icing on the cake.

It truly came to Yang Xue's rescue in the very last match.

If it weren't for the system reward that allowed Yang Xue to quickly learn a new music theory subject, she would definitely have failed in the third round.

"The system's greatest advantage is that it allows me to quickly master a type of music or knowledge, saving me a lot of trouble."

"Moreover, the amount of music I know is limited, and in the future I will probably rely more on the power of the system!"

"Therefore, earning points is very important! And the Level 1 Reputation Shop that will be unlocked later is also very necessary. It seems I need to accumulate points quickly."

With this in mind, Yang Xue included earning points as part of her action plan.

Right now, the more important issue is monetizing traffic, which means making money.

Despite the victory, Yang Xue's finances did not improve immediately.

On the contrary, it consumed more energy than previous live streams.

The others weren't much better off than him, especially Jiang Xiaolong, the boss.

"Brother Long spent at least 3 to 5 yuan to prepare for this match, and he probably won't even be able to settle his salary for next month."

"Heh, Brother Long is still very reliable in critical moments, he even sold his pots and pans to support my work."

"He's a very ambitious guy, but he's been manipulated and turned into a pushover by Tiancheng."

"Try to sing him 'A Man Should Be Self-Reliant' when you have some free time!"

Yang Xue chose Jiang Xiaolong because of his daring and hardworking personality and because she trusted him completely.

If a business owner's only wish is for peace and stable operation, then he is destined to be abandoned by the times.

But right now, he can't help himself solve his funding problem either.

Thinking of this, Yang Xue couldn't help but sigh:

"Zhizhi needs to go to school and pay off various debts. Sigh... There was a moment when I was genuinely tempted by the conditions Tiancheng offered."

However, Yang Xue quickly dismissed the idea.

"You idiot, what are you thinking? Those guys may seem to be giving you benefits, but in the end they'll only make more money off you!"

Yang Xue opened her video account again, ready to see today's feedback.

She was so shocked when she opened it that her jaw almost dropped.

His original 1300 followers have grown to more than 7.

There were 99+ messages in the background (maximum), and an additional 999+ likes and replies.

Hey lady! I'm the account operator for The Music, could I do a promotional interview?

[Ms. Yang, we are the official representatives of Miaoqu Music Headphones. May we have you as our product spokesperson?]

[I'm an official representative from Happy Music Station. We'd like to buy the exclusive rights to the songs performed at today's show. Is there any way we can discuss this?]

[Ms. Yang, do you offer music classes? My child really likes you...]

Seeing all the praise and business messages, she immediately sensed the money.

But she didn't realize that the benefits of this victory were far greater than she had imagined.

Seeing dozens of collaboration offers, she couldn't help but sigh:

"I wish it would hail from the ice! These collaborations have come at the perfect time!"

"Based on what Brother Long has talked about in the past regarding business expenses, these deals can all be negotiated, which is enough to solve the current predicament."

Thinking of this, Yang Xue perked up immediately and was filled with hope for the future.

But she wasn't in a hurry to reply, planning to have a detailed chat with Zhu Yan and Jiang Xiaolong the next day.

Although these were collaborations that were requested from her privately, she had no intention of taking them for herself.

"The money issue has been resolved for now, but I need to think more about how to ensure healthy development in the future."

Yang Xue did not get carried away by a small victory; instead, she changed her preconceived notions through the experience of this competition.

This time, she witnessed the power and ugliness of capital.

Even a big shot like Guo Yan is nothing more than a fat cow that can be slaughtered at will, let alone a nobody like myself.

Fortunately, I was lucky this time and managed to avoid their tricks through analysis.

As for why she was being so "modest," Yang Xue understood perfectly well.

"Judging from Tiancheng's two actions, I seem to hold considerable weight in their eyes..."

"No wonder... after all, I really helped them a lot in this operation."

"Although I don't have a good impression of them, I can't afford to completely break ties..."

"After all, future development must be based on Tiancheng's territory."

With this in mind, a new idea came to Yang Xue's mind.

Why treat Tiancheng as an enemy?

"Isn't this an opportunity that belongs only to us?!"

"I could clearly use this advantage to pull the other side down and strengthen ourselves!"

"Yes... I can be like a 'bad girl,' maintaining an ambiguous relationship with them, occasionally giving them some benefits and hope."

"Then play it safe, develop your strength, and keep growing..."

Tiancheng's strength made Yang Xue extremely wary, but it also objectively strengthened her ambition to become stronger and her vigilance.

"Right now, we can make money through singing, live streaming, and collaborations, but in the future, we must have our own flagship content products and a strong network of relationships..."

"If you only have money, you're like a fattened sow that can be slaughtered with a knife."

"So, what direction should I take in the future?"

As Yang Xue put forward the concept, that person's name popped into her mind again.

Fu Qingyang...
