The five members of the Sun Band—Chu Yi, Ruan Huixian, Dai Qingrou, Jiang Lei, and Sun Yuze—walked out of the campus and arrived at the agreed-upon location with Shen Chao. There, they found Shen Chao looking dejected and panicked.
Upon seeing the group, Shen Chao immediately approached and knelt down, saying, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, please forgive my mistake..."
The group exchanged bewildered glances, quite surprised.
"No, why are you kowtowing? It's not even the New Year yet."
"Shen Chao, what trick are you up to now?"
"We've been fooled once, but we won't be fooled a second time."
Shen Chao raised his head and looked at Chu Yi. The latter knew it must be his brother's doing. Seeing the cold look on Chu Yi's face, Shen Chao kowtowed again: "Please, I have elderly parents and young children to support. I can't be blacklisted in the industry, otherwise my family will be gone."
Chu Yi thought he could be ruthless and punish the bad guy, but in the end he was kind-hearted: "I forgive you this time, but you can't do this again."
"Thank you so much, you're such a kind person..."
Feeling relieved after being forgiven, Shen Chao left.
"Damn!"
"How did you end up encountering a rich heiress experiencing life?"
"If you say you're from a wealthy family, I'll treat you like a Buddha. Why pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger?"
"What bad luck."
Seeing Shen Chao leave, the other four companions turned their attention to Chu Yi, who explained, "My brother must have taught Shen Chao a lesson."
These words cleared up their doubts, and they quickly realized what was going on:
"Wow, your brother is amazing."
"They made Shen Chao kowtow and apologize in just a few days."
"I want to see your brother."
Just then, Chu Yi received a call from Chu Fang. After hanging up, he said to his companions, "You want to see my brother? Here's your chance. He wants to see us too."
Sun Yuze: "Us?"
"Yes."
Dai Qingrou asked, "You don't intend to kill us, do you?"
Chu Yi: "... ..."
Chu Lao Er can't even hold a pig steady during the New Year, how could he possibly kill someone?
... ...
Upon receiving the news, the five members of the Sun Band immediately rushed to the agreed location, which turned out to be Shen Chao's management company.
Unlike previous visits where they were met with no greetings, this time the group received a warm welcome upon arriving at the company.
Several receptionists bowed and said, "Welcome to our company, Sun Band."
As Jiang Lei stepped into the agency, the receptionists straightened up, but then saw him take a few steps back. The receptionists then bowed and said, "Welcome to the Sun Band."
Jiang Lei stepped into the company, then took a few steps back. Several receptionists bowed and said, "Welcome..."
Jiang Lei fiddled around with it, then laughed, "Hey, this is so much fun."
Chu Yi turned back and left with his companion.
Don't embarrass yourself here...
Assistant Liu led the five people to the general manager's office. When Chu Yi saw Chu Fang, he shouted, "Second Brother Chu, we're here!"
Chu Fang's lips twitched slightly.
He can accept the nickname "Chu Lao Er" (Second Brother Chu), but could you call him that in private instead of in public?
The other four members of the Sun Band looked at Chu Fang, thinking to themselves:
"This is Chu Yi's mysterious older brother."
"So young, and so rich, amazing."
"So handsome, I'd like to talk to you."
Chu Yi linked arms with Chu Fang: "Brother, why did you call us here?"
Hearing the word "brother," Chu Fang felt much gratified and said softly, "Are you interested in continuing down this path of music?"
"Huh? What do you mean?" Chu Yi asked.
"It's very simple. If you're just playing around with music, I'll plan it the same way I always have: after you graduate, I'll send you to a financial institution, like a bank or securities firm, buy you a few houses, and give you some savings so you can live comfortably for the rest of your life."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "But if you are truly passionate about music and want to delve into it, to continue down this path, and even to shine brightly and be known throughout the country, then you should sign a contract with this company. They can pave the way for your future."
Chu Fang had already planned Chu Yi's life for the rest of his life, which was to live a leisurely and carefree life with an easy job, several cars, and several houses to collect rent. He would not have to worry about money and would live a simple and peaceful life.
Now, Chu Yi seems to have her own ideas and is heading in the direction of music. In comparison, the path of music is much more difficult.
Therefore, he wanted to ask his younger sister what she really thought.
Chu Yi said seriously, "Brother, I've made up my mind. I want to make music."
Chu Fang said, "This road is very difficult."
Entering the music industry inevitably means appearing in the public eye and being put to the test under the national spotlight. Every move is scrutinized, magnified, and subject to accusations and slander...
Chu Yi straightened his chest: "I know, but I believe in myself."
Seeing the younger sister's confident demeanor, Chu Fang nodded, then asked his four companions, "Do you want to continue with Chu Yi?"
The four looked at each other and nodded vigorously.
Nobody's a fool.
Naturally, Chu Fang understood the unspoken meaning behind his words. Clearly, Chu Fang wanted to spend a lot of money on this unknown band to turn it into an excellent band, all for his sister's dream.
At this moment, in their eyes, Chu Yi was a powerful ally; as long as they clung to him, their future achievements would be limitless.
Chu Fang immediately turned to the general manager and said, "President Han, I'd like to trouble you to sign the contract with them."
"Understood." General Manager Han made an internal company call.
A few moments later, several people came in, all of whom were department managers, and one of them was a famous agent who had successfully managed many famous bands.
Then, Chu Fang took out the contract and gestured for Chu Yi and the others to sign it. Chu Yi had just written his name when he suddenly asked, "Brother, is there a problem with this contract? Will I have to pay another 100,000 yuan?"
Chu Fang rolled his eyes: "This contract is a servitude contract. I'll sell you all to northern Myanmar."
What kind of sister is this?
He's already here, yet he's still doubting whether the contract is fraudulent.
This clearly suggests that Chu Fang is not a good person.
General Manager Han's lips twitched.
If this were a contract of servitude, he would gladly sell himself.
This contract is the most lenient and accommodating contract the agency has ever made since its inception. Once the contract is signed, the agency will have to do everything in its power to manage Sun Band, which is the company's top priority.
This company will spend a lot of money on advertising, guidance, and buying trending topics, with the sole purpose of making this band popular.
The company has invested so much money that even if Sun Band becomes popular, Sun Band can terminate their contract at any time without paying any price.
It's safe to say this is a business deal that's bound to lose money; no one in the world would do such a thing.
But there was nothing they could do; their young master had said that this Young Master Chu was his best friend.
If we can't serve this young master Chu well, there's no point in this company existing.
General Manager Han touched his chest: "It hurts..."
