Two weeks of waiting is undoubtedly a long and agonizing time for those who are full of anticipation.

However, thanks to her own outstanding qualities and the support of Lin Chen's excellent works, Liu Tiantian finally ushered in her dazzling debut after careful preparation and intensive rehearsals.

During this period, Lin Chen acted as an invisible mentor, providing her with invaluable guidance remotely. When her debut single, "The Most Beautiful Tian Tian," was released on Douyin (TikTok), it was like a dazzling shooting star streaking across the night sky. Thanks to the high quality of the song and dance, as well as a clever marketing campaign, it garnered an astonishing tens of millions of views on its first night alone!

"Holy crap, it's really gone viral!"

Even the manager of "Tokyo Not Hot" couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, clearly stunned by the sudden surge in popularity.

Following that, Liu Tiantian seemed to have unlocked a cheat code, releasing a brand new masterpiece almost every few days. And each of these songs was the culmination of Lin Chen's painstaking efforts.

In just one week, the total number of views across the entire network has exceeded an astonishing 1 billion!

"Alright, I should be able to transfer the money now, right?" Lin Chen couldn't wait to contact the person in charge of "Tokyo Not Hot".

It's worth noting that the "Tokyo Not Hot" company is busier than ever now, with all sorts of gossip reporters and paparazzi flocking there, all eager to unveil the mystery surrounding this young female singer whose stage name is "Tian Tian Bu Tian" (meaning "Sweet but Not Sweet"), to explore why her songs are so beautiful, and to find out who the mysterious lyricist and composer "Lin Lao Gou" is and why his name has never been heard in the music scene.

Liu Tiantian is now a hot celebrity, keeping her incredibly busy with interviews and commercials every day. Lin Chen's class has also learned about Liu Tiantian's rise to fame, and many boys have even become her loyal fans.

"I knew Tian Tian would become famous! I just hope she won't forget our sisterly bond when the time comes—"

In class, Cai Xiaokun, a "female basketball star," was scrolling through Douyin (TikTok) while making delicate gestures with her fingers, her face full of envy and blessings for Liu Tiantian.

"Xiao Kun, I think you and Tian Tian are quite a good match. You two should form a group quickly!" Li Kui, the "Black Whirlwind," joked from the side.

These words reminded Lin Chen, and a thought suddenly struck him: This is a good idea!

Therefore, Lin Chen recommended Cai Xiaokun to the "Tokyo Not Hot" company without hesitation, and worked overnight to create several songs tailored for him.

Soon, Cai Xiaokun burst onto the scene as Liu Tiantian's partner. His unique and delicate art style, his incredibly skillful orchid finger gestures, and his stunning female basketball dance technique once again captivated the audience, sparking a new wave of fervent admiration!

In particular, the two theme songs Lin Chen wrote for him, "God of Basketball" and "You're a Bad Girl," topped the Weibo hot search list that very night!

Suddenly, two internet celebrities appeared in the class, making Lin Chen's entire class famous. However, the two people most annoyed by this wave of popularity were Lin Ruoyan and Che Yulin.

Liu Tiantian had received plenty of criticism from Lin Ruoyan before. In Lin Ruoyan's eyes, this rebellious girl who smoked, dyed her hair, and had tattoos was destined to work in a factory tightening screws!

But who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, Liu Tiantian would become a major internet celebrity with tens of millions of followers? Wouldn't that mean she could easily rake in hundreds of thousands of yuan? Isn't this a slap in the face to Lin Ruoyan?

As for Cai Xiaokun, he was previously punished by Lin Ruoyan to stand until his legs were weak, and she even mocked him for being effeminate. But in the blink of an eye, he's become a fashion trendsetter. These days in the entertainment industry, if you're not effeminate, you don't get much attention or market value!

"This world is too crazy!!"

Lin Ruoyan even began to question her own existence. She looked at the "problem student" she once saw, now transformed into a superstar in the public eye, and felt a mix of emotions.

And what about Che Yulin? He watched as his former little fangirl reached a height that he could never achieve in his entire life, and he was filled with regret! He was so regretful he could die.

Now look what's happened! Ning Jiaqi didn't get her, and Liu Tiantian has left. Che Yulin feels like he's a complete clown!

Amidst this booming wave, Lin Chen also reaped considerable rewards. Riding this momentum, he finally received his share of the substantial prize money. At this moment, the number displayed in Lin Chen's account had reached an astonishing 15.5 million!

For the Lin family of Haizhou, whose net worth is in the billions, this might not be a lot of money at all. But for Lin Chen himself, it was money he had earned through his own hard work! He felt incredibly proud and satisfied.

After leaving 500,000 yuan as emergency funds for Wang Nanshan's construction site, he transferred the remaining 15 million yuan to Jiang Jiahan without hesitation.

Although the target number mentioned by Jiang Jiahan was not reached, Lin Chen knew Jiang Jiahan's intentions. She deliberately exaggerated the number to scare Lin Chen away. In reality, what she lacked was this 15 million.

"How did you do that? Are you really a rich kid?" Jiang Jiahan sent several surprised emojis on WeChat, clearly astonished by Lin Chen's abilities.

"Rich second generation? Sorry, I'm the father of a rich second generation!" Lin Chen replied jokingly.

He subconsciously thought of his biological father, Lin Yuanhe, and his scheming younger brother, Lin Yiming, and couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

"We've only met by chance, how can you trust me so much? Aren't you afraid I'll run off with your money?" Jiang Jiahan continued to ask, clearly finding Lin Chen's trust somewhat unbelievable.

"I believe that the kind and beautiful Teacher Jiang wouldn't do this to me," Lin Chen replied confidently. He felt that his tactic of moral blackmail was becoming more and more sophisticated.

And indeed, that was the case. Not only did Jiang Jiahan not abscond with the money, but Lin Chen also benefited greatly. This was because she knew that Lin Chen's talent and ability were enough to revive her music and entertainment company.

Furthermore, Jiang Jiahan transferred 49% of the company's shares to Lin Chen according to a percentage. This made Lin Chen the largest shareholder in the company, even though his shareholding didn't exceed 50%.

After learning all this, Lin Chen was still a little confused. Jiang Jiahan hadn't mentioned transferring shares before. Did this mean he'd become the company's owner?

“Brother Lin Chen, you don’t know this, but my father and I don’t really care who the actual controlling shareholder of the company is. We just want the company to survive. After all, this is my father’s life’s work.”
