Girl idols are meant to be exploited!

The atmosphere fell into silence for a moment. After a moment, Xiaozhi took the initiative to ask: "Meow Mengqin, you are still a high school student now, right? Not only do you have to go to school, but you also have to be a beauty blogger and play drums. How do you do it, Meow Mengqin?"

For Xiaozhi, what Miaomengqin is doing now is something she envies. She envies Miaomeng for having so much energy.

Miao Meng touched her face and sighed softly: "How do I do it? I squeeze my time. I go to bed late and get up early. Apart from work and practice, I have no entertainment every day. Now my skin has become a little bad."

Xiaozhi's eyes flashed with admiration: "Miaomeng dear, you really work hard, but don't you think this kind of life is too stressful?"

"The pressure is huge, but seeing my fame and the money I earn gradually accumulate, I feel that my efforts are worthwhile."

Miao Meng stretched lazily, a sly smile on his face, "Xiaozhi, let me tell you a secret. In fact, the biggest motivation that has supported me to this point is ambition."

"I didn't want to be like other students my age, going to school routinely and living a mediocre life in a small place. I love fashion and I want to be exposed to more. That's why I worked hard to get an admission ticket from Kumamoto to Tokyo and become a video blogger."

"Although I'm very busy, I'm very happy. This is the life I want to live."

Miao Meng kissed her with all her energy... She is worthy of being my favorite blogger.

Seeing Miao Meng being so frank, Xiaozhi unconsciously started talking about his own things.

"Actually, I also came to Tokyo from a small town. My hometown is Sendai. I didn't want to waste time, so I gave up high school and came to Tokyo alone because I felt time wasted."

"Huh? You actually came here alone? That's impressive!"

The two of them opened up and talked about their previous experiences.

With the same "countryside" background, they had a lot to talk about and shared their experiences of pursuing their dreams from small towns to big cities.

They were chatting animatedly and their relationship quickly grew closer until Taku Hoshikawa came to them and knocked on the table several times, only then did they notice his presence.

"It looks like you two are having a great time chatting. Am I disturbing you? How about you continue chatting somewhere else?"

Hoshikawa Taku pointed to his office.

Chapter 114: The "Stress Monster" in the Team

After signing artists such as Toyokawa Shoko and Goto Ichiri, Hoshikawa Agency has gradually gotten on the right track.

What bothered Taku Hoshikawa the most was the number of empty rooms.

The only equipment and space in the entire building that can be used is one practice room and one recording studio. Most of the remaining areas are almost vacant, which is a waste.

Therefore, Taku Hoshikawa specially set today as an open day, and invited those industry insiders and band girls who became interested in the agency after reading the magazine to the agency for a personal visit.

Of course, it’s definitely not enough to rely on Taku Hoshikawa alone.

Now Taku Hoshikawa has nearly 30 million yen in his hands, which is enough to cover the firm's daily expenses for a long time and there is no need to save anymore.

So Taku Hoshikawa asked the system to recruit several administrative personnel to handle the company's daily affairs.

It is difficult to recruit professionals, but it is easy to recruit administrative staff for general positions.

The system recruited employees with work experience. They started working directly as soon as they arrived at their posts today and began to receive these visitors.

In addition, Taku Hoshikawa also recruited two video editors to be responsible for editing the video stream.

There will be no need to bother Lupa with such repetitive tasks in the future.

She can spend more time being Taku Hoshikawa's full-time assistant.

When Xiaozhi saw Xingchuan Taku coming back but didn't see Lupa, he couldn't help but ask, "Manager, didn't Lupa come with you?"

Ever since Lupa became Taku Hoshikawa's assistant, he has been by his side.

Even today when Taku Hoshikawa was discussing with those people in the industry, Lupa was there beside him.

Why isn't Lupa here now?

"The open day is over. Lupa is at the front desk compiling a list of today's guests and summarizing their needs. He'll be here soon."

Taku Hoshikawa pushed open the office door, turned to look at Xiaozhi and Meowth, and motioned them to come in.

"Come in and wait for a moment. I have something to say to you."

Xiaozhi and Miaomeng looked at each other, and entered the office under the guidance of Taku Hoshikawa.

"sit down."

After the two sat down, Hoshikawa Taku said, "You two have been talking for so long, you should have known that you two will be members of the same band, right?"

"Ah."

Miao Meng nodded and praised, "Xiao Zhi is amazing! Not only is he a music blogger with over 30,000 followers, he can also write lyrics and compose music. This is a skill that I, Miao Meng, don't have at all!"

Miaomeng did not underestimate Xiaozhi.

Although Xiaozhi's account "Red Ginger" has only more than 30,000 fans, the fan stickiness is very high, and each video basically has more than 10,000 views.

This is much better than she has now. You know, Miao Meng has more than 300,000 fans, but now each episode only has a few thousand views, and the current conversion rate is pitifully low.

She was a little impressed by Xiaozhi for being able to achieve this.

"No, no, no, I'm nothing. Meow Mengqin is the real deal!"

Xiaozhi shook his head repeatedly. "Miao Mengqin can update videos regularly while attending school and has been practicing drums. She has much more energy than me. This is really amazing!!"

Hoshikawa Taku laughed.

"Okay, stop praising each other. If you all agree with each other, then the band members are set."

Hoshikawa Taku counted on his fingers and said, "Xiaozhi, you are the keyboard player, Lupa is the bassist, Meow Mengqin is the drummer, Guitar Hero is the guitarist, and the lead singer is Chihaya Aine..."

Before Hoshikawa Taku could finish his words, Xiaozhi frowned and suddenly raised his hand and said, "I have no objection to Meow Mengqin, but is that girl named Chihaya Aine really capable of taking on this important task?"

"Manager, if Hiroi-san can't be the lead singer, you can't just find someone randomly, right? Hiroi-san has a lot of friends. You can find a professional lead singer from her, at least one who has performed on stage before."

Xiaozhi had never heard of the name Chihaya Aine before.

She didn't understand why Taku Hoshikawa would give such an important position as the lead singer to a complete amateur whom he had only known for a few days and knew nothing about.

To put it bluntly, she felt that Chihaya Aine was not worthy of the most important position in the band.

Hoshikawa Taku shook his head and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if you don't know her well. You will understand her after spending a few days with her. I think highly of Aiyin and I believe she can do it."

"But……"

Xiaozhi was obviously still not satisfied. She frowned and continued to argue, but Taku Hoshikawa interrupted her directly.

"Whether you agree or not, I'm putting this out there. Chihaya Aine will be the lead singer of this band."

He looked at Xiaozhi with a sharp gaze and said in a deep voice, "Xiaozhi, I know you have high expectations for your teammates, but you should at least get in touch with Aine before making a decision."

"If you feel you can't get along well with her, I can also replace the band's keyboard player with Xiangzi."

This was the first time that Hoshikawa Taku spoke such harsh words to Satoshi in such a serious manner.

Xiaozhi can be willful and she can also put forward her own suggestions and ideas, but Hoshikawa Taku will not change his decision.

Taku Hoshikawa is usually very kind to Satoshi, but that doesn't mean he has to always follow her temper.

To put it bluntly, one of the two people is an employee and the other is the boss. The employees have no choice but to do what the boss says.

Xiaozhi felt a little aggrieved for a moment, tears welling up in her eyes. She bit her lips tightly to prevent her tears from falling.

It wasn't like she had any problem with Chihaya Aine as a person. She was just targeting the issue, not the person, and just wanted to make this performance more perfect...

Why did he suddenly speak harshly to me and even said he wanted to replace me...

When Miao Meng saw Xiaozhi was about to cry, she felt a little distressed and quickly took out a tissue from her bag to wipe Xiaozhi's tears.

"Manager, how can you talk to a little girl like that? Even if what she said was a bit arbitrary and she judged Aine as not good enough before even meeting her, you can't say that someone should replace her. She worked very hard to get to this point!"

Miao Meng is very good at talking. She seems to be condemning Taku Hoshikawa, but also seems to be making excuses for him, reminding Xiaozhi that she was the one who said the wrong thing first, and that's why Taku Hoshikawa said he wanted to replace her.

Xiaozhi is not a person with low emotional intelligence, and she quickly realized her mistake.

She gradually calmed down, wiped her tears, and said in a low voice with a choked voice: "...Manager, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have questioned Chihaya Aine before we even met. I will work hard, and please don't replace me..."

At this moment, Xiaozhi suddenly realized that this was not the kind of band she had been in before for fun, but the workplace, and she was now a professional artist.

She had no right to choose her teammates and could only accept it.

Moreover, she is not indispensable. Compared to her, Toyokawa Shoko, who already has debut experience, is more suitable for this band.

She suddenly felt a sense of crisis that she might be replaced, and whispered to Taku Hoshikawa not to replace her.

Seeing Xiaozhi's aggrieved look, Hoshikawa Taku actually felt a little distressed, and a trace of pity flashed in his eyes.

However, he had to say this.

It was obvious that Xiaozhi looked down on Aine, a complete amateur.

Xiaozhi cannot tolerate any grain of sand in her eyes. If she finds that Aine is not strong enough, she will criticize Aine mercilessly. She will "breathe" at Aine like Lixi did, and will comment on all the things Aine does wrong and put pressure on her.

Xiaozhi was right to do this, but Hoshikawa Takuya knew that Aine would definitely not do well at the beginning. However, he let Aine be the lead singer so that she could clearly compare the differences between the two bands.

Let Aiyin feel the "team spirit" here, make her feel that this is a "warm family" with a harmonious atmosphere, and make her more willing to stay here.

Taku Hoshikawa doesn't want a "stress monster" to appear in the team.

So, he "PUA"ed Xiaozhi and made her realize that Aine was "indispensable" and she was "replaceable".

In this way, Xiaozhi can restrain his sharp-tongued nature when he is with Aine.

This is what brokers need to do, to prevent problems before they happen.

If we wait until conflicts break out before teaching them a lesson, it will be too late.

Chapter 115: The outdated internet celebrity Miao Mengqin.

When Taku Hoshikawa saw that Xiaozhi realized his mistake, his tone slowed down.

"Xiaozhi, don't worry, as long as you don't cause conflicts with other teammates, I won't replace you."

"This music festival is a new beginning for both you and Aine. Even if your performance isn't good enough, I accept that. But I just don't want to see you blaming each other and passing the buck."

"...Yeah, I'll pay attention."

Although Xiaozhi was still a little unconvinced, he just nodded obediently.

She knew that now was not the time for her to act willfully. If she angered Taku Hoshikawa, he would really replace her.

After "PUAing" Xiaozhi, Hoshikawa Taku turned his gaze to Meowmeng.

Miao Meng quickly raised her hand and declared, "I have a good temper. Besides, Aiyin is still my fan. No matter how she sings, I won't blame her!"

Miao Meng was actually very confused as to why Hoshikawa Taku had a special liking for Chihaya Aine, and he specifically told them not to have conflicts.

Could it be that Aine is a "connected person"? Or is it that Hoshikawa Taku has taken a fancy to Chihaya Aine and wants to "take advantage" of her?

However, although Aine is cute, her body is indeed a bit flat.

As a manager, Taku Hoshikawa should be used to seeing beautiful girls. Even if he wants to take advantage of them, he should choose girls with better figures, right?

Or does he just like this tune?

No matter what the reason is, Miao Meng will not provoke Aine and will try her best to get along with her.

Moreover, based on Miao Meng's short contact with Aine, Aine should be a girl who is easy to get along with. As long as she doesn't touch any minefields, she probably won't quarrel with her.

"Nyanmu, I'm sure you can get along well with Aine, but actually, I want to tell you about Guitar Hero."

Hoshikawa Tuodao.

Guitar Hero?

"By the way, Manager, when is Guitar Hero coming?"

Miao Meng raised his hand and asked.

Miao Meng came here just to take advantage of the popularity of Guitar Hero.

"She'll be here later."

Xingchuan Taku looked at Miao Meng and said slowly, "Miao Meng, before meeting her, I hope you can sign a confidentiality agreement with me."

"You can use the name of Guitar Hero to release videos and attract traffic, but... before I allow you, you are not allowed to reveal her true identity, not even a hint, otherwise you will have to pay huge compensation."

Miao Meng jumped up suddenly.

Her eyes widened as she screamed, "How could this happen?! Didn't we agree on mutual benefit? If I reveal Guitar Hero's identity, she'll also be in the spotlight and get tons of traffic!"

Hoshikawa Taku chuckled.

"Yes, since we're collaborating, we naturally want to benefit each other, but have you ever thought about whether it would be too short-sighted if you revealed Guitar Hero's identity right now?"
