Chapter 84: Old Friends Reunited

…

"Hey, you play the guitar really well. Let me introduce myself. My name is Xiong Zijian, and I play drums."

"My name is Qi Siyu. I've been keeping an eye on you two masters for a while. I'm also pretty good at playing the keyboard, so I think we can form a band. By the way, I met someone a few days ago who can play the guitar and sing. I'll introduce you to him someday."

"I'm Qi Siyu's friend Han Mingze. I can play the lead guitar and I can also be the lead singer."

"Have you seen that Jian Guo'er? I heard her name is Dong Ye, and she's from Shanghai. She just came to Kyoto a few days ago. She can play bass. How about we ask her to form a band with us?"

"Xiao Ye, please be my girlfriend. I will treat you well for the rest of my life."

"Hubby, I'm pregnant, and you're going to be a father."

"Ordinarily, we should go home and get married now. After all, if we don't go home soon, you'll be pregnant. But you know, I've taken on a lot of lucrative commercial performances recently. If we miss this golden period of development, we don't know when our Big Bird band will be able to rise again. And I also want to earn a home for you and the child. Otherwise, how about we go home and get married after you give birth to the child?"

"Congratulations, it's a daughter, 6.8 jin."

"Wife, I want to set up an entertainment company. I've even thought of a name for it. I'll use our daughter's name, Maizi Entertainment. I want to make it the largest pop music company, and you'll be the boss."

“…”

Looking at the dusty signboard of Maizi Entertainment, countless memories that Xu Kai had always been reluctant to recall flooded into his mind like a tide.

Dong Ni did not rush Xu Kai to go in. She knew that Xu Kai needed time to digest all this suddenness.

After a long time, Xu Kai opened the door that he had not touched for more than ten years.

Xiong Zijian, Qi Siyu and Gu Linlin, who were anxiously waiting for Xu Kai's arrival, immediately stood up and looked towards the door when they heard the door being opened.

Seeing a tall figure similar to the one in their memory but a little different walking in, Xiong Zijian and Qi Siyu were both surprised and a little confused: "Is this... a big bird?"

"Was he originally so tall and strong?"

"Fuck, why does he seem more handsome than before?"

“…”

After a moment's reaction, Xiong Zijian and Qi Siyu rushed to Xu Kai, wanting to give their old friend a big hug after not seeing him for many years.

But Xu Kaixian stopped them by patting their shoulders hard.

"Long time no see, Daxiong, Daqi."

When Xu Kai was just imprisoned, Xiong Zijian and Qi Siyu often went to see Xu Kai. At that time, they gave Xu Kai a lot of spiritual chicken soup and counseled him, and said that they would wait for Xu Kai to come out and restore the glory of the Big Bird band.

Later, with Dong Ye's disappearance, Xiong Zijian and Qi Siyu came to see Xu Kai less and less frequently, until they stopped coming.

but--

Xu Kai never blamed Xiong Zijian and Qi Siyu. He knew that Xiong Zijian and Qi Siyu, two loyal people, must have their reasons for not coming to visit him, and it was not because they had forgotten their friend.

"Big Bird, don't blame us brothers for not visiting you later. The truth is that after you went in, our lives got worse and worse, and Xiaoye didn't want you to know about her situation for fear that you would worry about her. So Dahan didn't let Daqi and I visit you. He was afraid that Daqi and I would tell you about Xiaoye's situation and you would lose the energy to reform yourself."

"Yes, Big Bird, we always dream about the happy and glorious days when our Big Bird band was in the past. Many times we couldn't help wanting to go to Dongzhou to see you, but firstly, we were really miserable at that time, and secondly, we were really worried that you would ask us about Xiaoye. Da Han always said that we would come to see you after we achieved some results, so that you can be happy with us, but we never achieved any results."

In fact, Xiong Zijian and Qi Siyu didn't need to explain to Xu Kai at all. Just because they had stayed in the Big Bird Band and Maizi Entertainment for so many years, which had no future and no money, why couldn't Xu Kai forgive these two old friends who only cared about music and had no bad intentions? But Han Mingze was different.

In fact, before going to prison, Xu Kai had already discovered that Han Mingze was targeting his wife, and he even had the intention of "usurping the throne". Unfortunately, Xiong Zijian, Qi Siyu and Dong never had the intention of overthrowing Xu Kai's rule. In addition, under Xu Kai's leadership, the Big Bird Band continued to flourish, so Han Mingze did not dare to reveal his true feelings.

But even so, Xu Kai had already made up his mind to drive Han Mingze away.

But on the one hand, because Han Mingze got along well with Xiong Zijian and Qi Siyu, Xu Kai, who regarded the Big Bird Band as his entire career at that time, had to carefully consider the attitudes of Xiong Zijian and Qi Siyu and could not rashly "fire" Han Mingze, lest the Big Bird Band collapse.

Secondly, Xu Kai had not been able to find any evidence against Han Mingze at that time, so he had no reason to drive away Han Mingze, who was so ambitious and dared to covet his wife.

The key point is that Xu Kai was suddenly imprisoned, interrupting his plan to drive Han Mingze away.

This allowed Han Mingze to stay in the Big Bird band for another ten years, and also allowed him to replace Xu Kai as the lead singer and lead guitarist of the Big Bird band as he wished.

"Big Bird, how come you've grown so much taller and stronger? I didn't even dare to recognize you just now."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Yeah, Big Bird, are you going to jail or getting plastic surgery? I'm embarrassed to stand next to you. You're too handsome."

Seeing that Xu Kai and the others were still chatting endlessly and no one was paying attention to her, Lin Yangyang coughed lightly and then said to Xu Kai: "Mr. Xu Kai, right? I am Lin Yangyang, the external relations producer of the "Singer" program production team. Nice to meet you."

After saying that, Lin Yangyang stretched out her hand towards Xu Kai.

Glancing at Lin Yangyang, Xu Kai asked bluntly, "Is this something that Yang Xinchun and Yang Xindong did?"

After hearing from Dong Ni the reason why she hurriedly came back, Xu Kai knew that this must have been done by the sisters Yang Xinchun and Yang Xindong. Others didn't know Xu Kai's current attainments in music and would not have asked him to be a music producer. They also didn't have the power to make the production team of "Singer" willingly spend 5 million to invite the unknown Big Bird Band to serve as the accompaniment for "Singer", a high-end music competition program.

When Lin Yangyang heard Xu Kai mention the names of Yang Xinchun and Yang Xindong right away, she knew that she had finally found the right person this time.

Lin Yangyang immediately put away her previous indifference and said in a way that made things even more obvious: "I don't know who invited you. I'm just an errand boy. If you want to know the reason, just follow me to Xiangnan TV Station. I think you will definitely know everything you want to know there."

It doesn't matter whether Han Mingze lives or dies, Xu Kai will never care about his life or death.

But Xiong Zijian and Qi Siyu also spent some of the money that Han Mingze defrauded.

The key point is that Han Mingze used the official seal of Maizi Entertainment to sign the contract, and Dong is also the legal representative of Maizi Entertainment. If this matter is not resolved, Dong will definitely not be able to escape the responsibility.

Moreover, Xu Kai didn't want to continue to be entangled with the sisters Yang Xinchun and Yang Xindong.

So Xu Kai said to Lin Yangyang: "Give me a day to take care of my personal affairs, and I will go to Xiangnan TV Station with you tomorrow."
