In the music series, the male protagonist writes a self-help manual for the inner world

"A mature band should sell CDs, hold concerts, and do online concerts?"

He clapped his hands, making a loud sound.

"Oh, yes, and the most important financial issue."

"How should a band make money, manage money, and spend money?"

"In a way, this is something more important than musical ability... Because if your musical ability is not good enough, you can still practice, but if you spend all your money on your next meal."

"I have to take a bowl and beg for food in the restaurant."

(Why don’t you go to your fans’ houses to beg for food?)

"Goto Ichiri" raised doubts in Goto Ichiri's heart.

Can you please have some dignity? Goto Ichiri is too exhausted to complain about another person's "amazing wisdom".

(I remember an alcoholic ancestor of mine who lived his life by playing bass doing this.)

(When she had no wine to drink, she would pick up the bass, act pitiful, and go to the door of the izakaya to ask for wine. After that, she would play a bass song as payment.)

...So rock and roll. That was all Goto Ichiri could say in the end.

After hearing Chen Xinghua's suggestion, Hongxia imagined the scene where Liang was in charge of the money.

'This is what our band will spend for the next week.'

Ryo stretched out his arm, revealing a 100 yen coin.

Hong Xia hurriedly shook her head and shook herself out of the fantasy of this If line.

"Well, this is an important question."

Before, the entire band managed their own expenses, because not only was there no money to be used for the band's common expenses, but the entire band also had no common income.

There is no income and no expenses, so don't worry about it.

"If we make money from Live later... considering this, this issue will have to be put on the agenda."

"How about I take care of the band's funds?"

"Wouldn't it be better to let Senior Liang keep it?"

Kita raised his doubts.

Hong Xia instantly showed an expression mixed with anger and contempt.

"Xiduo, don't look at Liang like this, she is actually very good at spending money."

"Her family is actually quite wealthy and they give her a lot of pocket money, but she spends it lavishly and often has to borrow money from others for her next meal."

Kita's expression was a little broken.

Is Senior Liang such a person?

The handsome image of Liang-senpai in her mind was slightly shattered.

Chen Xinghua showed a surprised expression. Liang, didn’t you say that you had very little pocket money, so you borrowed money from me to buy beef curry?

(See, I was right.)

(Be careful, idiot. If you borrow money today, you might borrow something else tomorrow...)

If the current "Goto Ichiri" had a physical body, she would definitely have a very proud expression on her face.

You are too proud of yourself. Goto Ichiri thinks that "Goto Ichiri" is a mean person who has achieved success.

"Speaking of which, Liang, have you borrowed money from them these days?"

Hong Xia clenched her fists and slammed the table hard.

Liang turned his head away.

"I borrowed money..."

An angry expression appeared on Hongxia's face.

After a severe lesson, Liang hung a sign that read "Unscrupulous Borrower" and knelt on the ground with his hands holding the salary he had just received from Xingge.

"Hurry up and say sorry for not paying you back for so long."

Hongxia put her hands on Liang's shoulders and showed a very ferocious expression.

"I'm sorry I didn't pay you back for so long."

Liang stared at his salary which had not yet warmed up.

101

Chapter 101 As the leader of the ending band.

"Well, actually, I don't really need the money. It won't matter if I delay it a little longer."

Kita waved his hands, looking reluctant to get the money he owed from Liang.

"Kita."

Liang raised his head, his yellow eyes filled with gratitude.

"Don't spoil yourself too much. If you owe money, you have to pay it back. This is the natural thing to do."

Chen Xinghua took the money owed by Xiduo from Liang's hand and stuffed it back into Xiduo's hand.

In fact, Chen Xinghua didn't really need Liang's repayment.

Because his current savings are not that much, it is probably only enough to host a large music festival.

But borrowing money and not paying it back is a matter of principle. You can't be a deadbeat. It's your fault.

Then Chen Xinghua added in a low voice, "This isn't some crazy thing like usury."

"If it's Senior who wants to do this."

Kita hesitated for a while, but finally got back the money he was owed.

Liang's yellow eyes were full of disbelief. Why not only did Xinghua no longer call her Liang-senpai, but even Kita betrayed her?

"Pochi-chan, did this guy lend you any money?"

Hongxia spread her hands behind her back, revealing the skin on her fingertips which had become much rougher recently... because she was practicing hard to match Pochi's playing level.

I didn't open my palms directly to the other members of the band so that they wouldn't worry about me when they saw the rough skin on my fingertips.

As the captain of a band, you have to handle all the issues in the band with ease.

"No la."

Goto Ichiri waved his hands repeatedly.

Perhaps because Liang can tell who is richer, when Goto Ichiri and Chen Xinghua are present, this despicable guy usually chooses to borrow money from Chen Xinghua.

"If Liang borrowed money from you, tell her nicely and I'll make her pay it back."

Hongxia clenched her palms into fists and waved them over Liang's head in a demonstrative manner.

"tyrant."

Liang said softly.

"what?"

Hongxia showed a friendly expression.

"Nothing. You must have heard wrongly."

Liang turned his head away.

Hongxia put her hands together and looked at everyone expectantly.

“Back to the point, what should we do to make The End more like a serious band.”

"A serious rock band..."

Liang nodded, thoughtfully, "When it comes to rock bands, smoking, drinking, womanizing, and messy relationships are inevitable."

“It’s not this serious rock and roll feeling.”

Hongxia couldn't help but tap Liang's head gently.

(Don't ask me.)

"Goto Ichiri" answered Pochi-chan before Pochi-chan asked her what the band feeling was.

I didn’t count on you… Goto Ichiri complained.

From a certain perspective, "Goto Ichiri" is very much like a real rock star, smoking, drinking and asking for money from fans without missing a single one.

But because of this, it is impossible for Goto Ichiri to ask "Goto Ichiri."

After all, we can't let all the members of the band smoke, drink and ask fans for money.

This is too rock and roll.

"A chaotic relationship..."

Chen Xinghua seemed to be lost in thought.

Of course, the chaotic emotional relationships he refers to are not the relationships between men and women, but other tangled relationships.

The unnamed band of Deng has a pretty messy relationship.

A lead singer who doesn't know how to express his emotions, a drummer and part-time arranger who puts pressure on himself and others, a bassist who slacks off and seems to still miss his old band, and a guitarist who behaves like a cat.

This feeling is quite confusing.

"I think a band should have at least a few original songs that can be shown off, and it would be best if they could release a few band albums."

That kind of thing is too far away, Hong Xia felt helpless, the band's level is still far from being able to release a band album.

"That is to say, if you want to become a serious band, you must have your own works."

“So our main task right now is to organize the next Live.”

Come to think of it, my sister actually has performance standards for us. If we fail to reach the rated ticket sales performance, we still have to pay for it out of our own pocket.

But if Pochi-chan were here, she would definitely be able to meet this standard.

...I can reach a level of music that matches the level of Pochi-chan's performance.

It must be possible. Hong Xia clenched her palms, which had become unusually strong from practicing drums.

As the leader of the final band, I have to work harder and harder, and must work harder than all the other members combined.

"Does anyone have any other ideas?"

Hong Xia raised her hand and looked at the other members of the band.

Speaking of bands, that one is unforgettable. Kita recalled the band of his good friend Sara.

Although that band had been hit hard by Chen Xinghua and had become a high school band that was refreshed at any time in Shimokitazawa, that band still brought a lot of inspiration to Kita.

"Social media accounts... a band must have social media accounts so they can promote the band's upcoming activities to fans."

Although most high school band social media accounts have fewer than three digits of followers.

Just like Saori's band.

Even though they worked hard to distribute flyers on the streets and promoted their band crazily in class and among friends.

However, until they transformed into a non-profit, hobby-based high school band, the number of followers on their band account could be described as appalling.

Thinking of this, Kita's mouth twitched slightly.

"If you need to open a social media account or something, please let me do it."

Hongxia pointed at Kita.

"Very good, then I'll appoint you as the band's SNS director."

Kita held up his phone.

"I will work hard to update and help build up the band's popularity for everyone."

Hong Xia took out the folded poster from her small pocket.

"After that……"
