Hoshikawa Taku paused for a moment and then explained, "There's an open-air music festival in two weeks. My band is short of a drummer. If you're willing to join, you should be able to get quite a bit of attention."

Miao Meng's eyes suddenly froze. After thinking for a moment, she raised her head and smiled evilly.

"A music festival... there are so many bands there, how can it be so easy to get attention? Mr. Agent, I think you just want to use my traffic!"

Miao Meng was very smart and immediately saw through Hoshikawa Taku's plan.

"That's what I meant."

Hoshikawa Taku nodded without hesitation, and then followed up with, "But what if I say... the guitarist in the band is a guitar hero, then would you be willing to join?"

Collaborate with Guitar Hero to form a band?

When Miao Meng heard what Xingchuan Taku said, her eyes suddenly changed and she began to think quickly.

She has witnessed the current popularity of Guitar Hero today. She is probably the most talked-about guitarist in non-professional bands. If she could form a band with her, it would definitely bring a lot of topics, and Miao Meng could also take the opportunity to shoot more videos.

If the mask of Guitar Hero could be lifted, the traffic would definitely explode...

This is a good deal with huge profits!

Miao Meng's mind was rapidly calculating the potential benefits, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly: "This is what you call cooperation, right? Okay, I agree!"

Miao Meng doesn’t have a band anyway, so it’s a good idea to join this band temporarily, and it can also be used as video material.

Hoshikawa Taku smiled with satisfaction: "You said so, so we can have a happy cooperation, right?"

He stretched out his hand to shake hands with Miao Meng, but just as Miao Meng was about to stretch out his hand, it stopped in mid-air.

She asked perceptively, "Have the rest of the band members been confirmed? Besides Guitar Hero, who are the others? Are they all famous internet celebrities?"

"Yes, the bassist and keyboardist are also relatively well-known bloggers in the music community, and their abilities should not be underestimated. As for the lead singer...it hasn't been decided yet."

Miao Meng was surprised and said, "Huh? Don't we have a ready-made lead singer? Isn't that Hiroi Kikuri not good enough?"

Miao Meng also realized that Hiroi Kikuri was a very famous band lead singer, and many people in the audience knew her.

Although many people have a low opinion of her, black traffic is still traffic. We are not afraid of bad reputation, but we are afraid of being unknown and no one caring about her.

Hoshikawa Taku shook his head: "No, their band will also participate in this music festival, and they have to find another lead singer. So..."

Hoshikawa Taku suddenly turned his gaze towards Aine who was standing beside him.

"Aine, are you willing to be the lead singer?"

Chapter 106: Chihaya Aine, do you love humans so much?

"……I?"

Aine was stunned, surprise written all over her face.

She didn't expect that she was just listening quietly at the side, but the topic would suddenly shift to herself.

Isn’t Mr. Xingchuan inviting the internet celebrity Miao Mengqin to join the band as a drummer?

Why did they suddenly invite her to be the lead singer? She's not a celebrity.

Her eyes darted back and forth between Hoshikawa Taku and Meowmu, making sure she had heard correctly.

"Mr. Xingchuan, are you kidding me?"

Aine couldn’t help but ask.

Hoshikawa Taku shook his head, his expression serious: "I'm not kidding, I'm serious, I hope you can be the lead singer of our band...if you are willing."

Aine’s breathing hitched slightly, and her heartbeat quickened for a moment.

Being a lead singer has always been Aiyin's dream. However, when faced with this opportunity that could make her dream come true, she felt confused and refused it repeatedly.

"I definitely can't do it! I...I'm still far from it!"

Miao Meng frowned beside her and asked softly, "Mr. Xingchuan, Aine is my fan, and I really hope to perform with her, but the lead vocal position is very important. Are you sure you want to give it to her?"

Miao Meng was not targeting Aine, and she didn't have many opinions about the other band members.

The popularity of Guitar Hero and the two music bloggers mentioned by Taku Hoshikawa can bring considerable traffic to the band.

But the position of lead singer is very important, equivalent to the face of a band. Does Taku Hoshikawa intend to hand it over to an "amateur"?

She doubts this.

"I'm sure of that."

Hoshikawa Taku looked at Aine and said with a smile: "Aine, if you have any concerns, can we talk alone?"

Aine hesitated for a moment, nodded, and followed Hoshikawa Taku to the corner of the street.

Hoshikawa Taku looked at Aine and asked gently, "Why not? Aine, don't you want to be the lead singer? Why did you refuse the opportunity when it came to you?"

Aiyin bit her lip and slowly said, "Mr. Xingchuan, I appreciate your trust in me, but I don't think I'm suitable for the position of lead singer."

"Where doesn't it fit?"

Hoshikawa Taku asked rhetorically.

Aiyin slowly raised her head, her eyes flickering slightly. She took a deep breath and finally expressed her concerns truthfully.

"My singing skills aren't good enough. I can't sing as infectiously as Ms. Hiroi. I don't have her strong stage presence, nor do I have that eye-catching aura. When I'm on stage, I might get nervous and lose control, afraid that I'll perform badly..."

"Besides, I don't have any stage experience. If I were suddenly asked to face such a large audience, I'd be afraid I'd mess up, or even cause the entire band's performance to lose its rhythm because of me. I... I really don't want to be the one holding them back."

Aine gave many reasons in one breath.

But when she said these words, she was not talking to Taku Hoshikawa, but with her head down, as if she was talking to herself.

It was as if she was not rejecting others, but convincing herself.

Her answers did not convince Taku Hoshikawa.

"Aine, if you're worried about your singing skills, you can practice. At least try before you say you can't. You said you get nervous on stage, but everyone gets nervous too. Everyone has their first time."

"Since you've joined the band, being on stage must be something you'll experience in the future. I don't think these reasons can convince me."

Hoshikawa Taku looked directly at Aine: "Tell me, what's the real reason for your refusal?"

After a moment of silence, Aine's eyes dimmed, and she finally uttered the truest reason in her heart: "Mr. Hoshikawa... I already have a band, and I don't want to abandon the other members of the band."

As expected... Just as Hoshikawa Taku thought, the reason why Aine refused was her current band.

"Your band hasn't even come up with a name yet, has it?"

Hoshikawa Taku is still trying his best to convince Aine to change sides.

"Common sense suggests that even a last-minute regret is normal, right? No one has invested any emotion or money in the band, so there's no reason to insist on this band."

Aiyin's eyes were still lowered, and she sighed softly: "But... I made an agreement with my friend Takamatsu Deng. I promised her that I would team up with her..."

"Do you take promises so seriously? She said she'd form a band for life, and you really took it seriously?"

Aiyin smiled bitterly. "That's not the case. I lie all the time, but...Takamatsu Deng was hurt once before because of the band's disbandment. I don't want her to be hurt a second time..."

Hoshikawa Taku was speechless for a moment.

Chihaya Aine, do you love humans so much?

I've only known Takamatsu Deng for less than a month. Is it necessary for me to give up my dream of becoming a lead singer for her?

Taku Hoshikawa had originally wanted to let Aine leave Mygo and join his new band, but now it seems that this goal cannot be achieved.

Unless Nagasaki Suyo, Takamatsu Touma and the others took the initiative to speak up and resolutely drove Aine away, otherwise, Aine would not leave on her own initiative in order to take care of these problem children.

In that case, my current goal is to get her to agree to be my lead singer. As for leaving Mygo, I will slowly figure out a way later.

Hoshikawa Taku slowed down his tone and said gently, "Aine, I understand your thoughts. You don't want to make Takamatsu Deng sad, and I didn't say that I want you to leave your current band.

I just hope you can be a firefighter and temporarily team up with them, and after this performance is over, you can still continue to play band happily with your own band members."

"If you agree, your teammates will be Meow Dream and Guitar Hero, you know? This is an opportunity that many people would love to have."

"You can stand on a dazzling stage, enjoying the cheers of the audience. That's a stage bigger than the streets of Shinjuku. You'll become instantly famous, trending all over the internet, and the focus of the entire school..."

What Hoshikawa Taku said was based on the template used to persuade Pochi.

Although these two pink-haired guitarists have completely opposite personalities, they are both vain and want to become more popular.

And these words, which were useful to Pochi, also convinced Aine.

Aine wanted to form a band because of her vanity. She chose Takamatsu Deng because Deng was a little animal loved by the whole class. If she had a good relationship with her, she would also get the attention of the whole class.

She chose Su Shi because she was the eldest daughter of Yuezhisen, and she could get more attention by being with her.

But now she has an opportunity to perform on the same stage with her favorite blogger and gain the attention of the entire network...

If I refuse, I will never have such an opportunity to show off again.

Hoshikawa Taku didn't mean to ask her to leave her current band forever, he just wanted to help her temporarily.

There is no reason to refuse anymore.

Chapter 107: Nagasaki Suyo is willing to do anything.

After thinking for a long time, Aiyin said: "Mr. Xingchuan, I am willing to be the temporary lead singer, but... my singing skills may not be very good, and I might mess things up..."

"It's okay, as long as you agree, there will be professionals to help you with how to sing."

Hoshikawa Taku said quickly.

Although Hiroi Kikuri cannot perform on the same stage with Pochi, Satoshi and the others, she can be Aine's mentor.

With such a professional teaching her step by step, even if Aiyin’s singing skills are really terrible, she can be guided to meet the standards.

What's more, Aine's singing level should not be low. After all, she often goes to KTV and has a heart of a lead singer. In Hoshikawa Taku's opinion, her singing skills should be much better than the autistic lamb who can only sing Kasuga Shadow.

"In that case... please give me your guidance."

Now that Aiyin had made up her mind, she no longer hesitated, "Then I'll go back and tell my teammates in person."

She knew that the decision she was making now was not easy.

Li Xi has always disliked her. If he goes back and says that he wants to temporarily stop the band's activities and go somewhere else to be the lead singer, she will definitely ridicule him and say that he is a bad boy and likes to play.

However, Aiyin still didn't want to miss this opportunity, nor was she willing to leave the band. She was ready to face Riki's sarcasm.

Aine made her decision and was about to leave when Hoshikawa Taku grabbed her and said, "You don't have to go back. If you go now, your teammates will definitely complain about you, saying you only care about yourself. I'll help you communicate with them."

Aine was stunned for a moment.

She didn't expect that Taku Hoshikawa had even anticipated that she would suffer cold violence from her teammates, and took the initiative to promise to help her solve this problem.

Aine was a little touched.

Since she escaped back from England in disgrace, this was the first person other than her parents who took the initiative to care about her.

"No need, I can handle this kind of thing myself."

Aine subconsciously didn't want to cause trouble for Hoshikawa Taku.

"No, I invited you. How can I let you suffer any injustice?"

Hoshikawa Taku spoke in a firm tone and called Xiangzi.

"Xiangzi, where are you now? Can you come over? Bring Su Shi with you, too. I have something to tell her."

Before the Guitar Hero performance began, Shoko Toyokawa had not been by Taku Hoshikawa's side.

Taku Hoshikawa gave Xiangzi a task, which was to let her "single-handedly guard" Nagasaki Suyo and prevent her from disturbing his chat with Chihaya Aine.

Xiangzi didn't know why Taku Hoshikawa cared so much about Chihaya Aine, but she didn't ask much. She trusted Taku Hoshikawa very much and faithfully completed his tasks. She and Su Shi always stayed at a distance from Taku Hoshikawa and the others.

This task seems easy, but it is actually very simple.

In fact, Xiangzi didn't need to ask Su Shi to come over. Even if she didn't say anything, Su Shi's eyes were always on her. Wherever she went, Su Shi would follow.

All Xiangzi needs to do is deliberately keep a distance from Hoshikawa Taku and he can easily complete the task.

Su Shi was eager to be alone with Xiangzi, as she had a lot of questions to ask him.

When she was with Xiangzi, she kept asking about Xiangzi's recent situation and the relationship between her and Hoshikawa Taku.

Xiangzi just dealt with it vaguely and calmly.

Su Shi also knew that she had been fooled, but she was already very happy to be able to talk to Xiangzi, and did not care too much.

She kept smiling and whispering softly to Xiangzi about herself and her CRYCHIC words.
