Chapter 1271 Investing in Potential Stocks
Maria and Ina pushed Xiao Peng back to the bathroom. They pushed Xiao Peng onto the sink and looked him over.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Xiao Peng asked in confusion, "Can't you talk to me somewhere else? Why do you have to go to the bathroom?"
Maria said, "You should like it here, right?"
Ina reached out and pinched Xiao Peng: "I can't believe you're so strong!"
"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't touch me." Xiao Peng dodged Ina's hand.
Maria asked, "It seems like you're not just freezing your hands and feet here just now, are you?"
Xiao Peng frowned: "You are looking for me for that matter? I'm sorry, I've been busy just now and I'm tired now."
"A man can't say he's not capable!" Ina put her hand on Xiao Peng's chest again.
Xiao Peng took a step back: "I'm not a man, I'm a boy."
Maria directly posted: "That's great, I'm a girl and I like boys."
Xiao Peng was helpless: "Let's talk it over, okay? You two are ambitious girls with a purpose. Well, as we say in Daxia, 'nothing without profit, nothing early.' You must have a purpose for coming to me. Isn't it better to be straightforward?"
Maria and Ina looked at each other and Maria asked, "What are your plans after you become famous?"
"Ah?" Xiao Peng didn't understand what she meant.
Ina asked, "Was the 'communication' with Anna just now successful? We should give our best wishes in advance to the emergence of a new star in the electronic music industry. How much was the signing fee? A few million?"
Before Xiao Peng could answer, Maria said directly, "How embarrassing it is to be in the electronic music industry without any beautiful women around you? We are willing to stay by your side. How about we support each other?"
Ina added, "We were initially infuriated by what we heard about the 'rich and beautiful' relationship. What do you know about the rich? But then I thought, you have a point. There are countless beautiful women in this world, but few rich people. Competition is indeed fierce. So, instead of that, why don't we look for a rising star? We're looking for a 'potential stock.' And you are a very good 'potential stock.'"
Maria came up again at this time: "This is mutually beneficial for us. Believe us, we are no less than Anna and can give you double the happiness."
After he finished speaking, the two women looked at Xiao Peng with expectant eyes.
Xiao Peng looked at the two of them and took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it. "Are you done? Can I speak now? You guys are singing the same tune, I don't even have a chance to interrupt."
"Of course!" Maria and Ina said in unison.
"Okay, it seems you guys have misunderstood something!" Xiao Peng took a puff of his cigarette and said, "In fact, I didn't agree to Del's proposal."
Maria and Ina exclaimed, "What?"
"Did I hear correctly?" Ina said with wide eyes, "Do you know what you rejected? Do you know how much money you can make as an electronic music producer? Do you know how much a popular DJ can make?"
Ina's shock was not without reason. Many people think that DJs are the ones who play records in nightclubs, but this is actually a misunderstanding.
Intellectual property is highly respected in Europe, so it's easy for an electronic music producer to rise to fame after producing a hit song. Take, for example, the viral hit "Fox Howl." The artist, initially relatively unknown, posted his work on a free music arrangement website as a hobby, hoping someone would appreciate it. However, "Fox Howl" became an instant hit, netting him eight figures in a short period of time.
Popular DJs' appearance fees at electronic music festivals are also incredibly high, directly taking a cut of the box office! A single festival with tens of thousands of attendees could easily earn them millions in appearance fees, not to mention even larger festivals with crowds of 100,000 or more, which can bring in even more. Add to that advertising endorsement fees, announcement fees, and other such income, and the top DJs' earnings are truly staggering.
Just like Xiao Peng bought the house of French DJ David Guetta in France. That house is something that ordinary people cannot afford in their lifetime, but he ended up having several houses like it.
If Xiao Peng signed with Del's label, even if he couldn't compose music, as he claimed, finding some "gunmen" wouldn't be a problem—there are so many such cases! Isn't this the case with so many celebrities in the entertainment industry who claim to be "musical geniuses" or "musical prodigies"?
Del would definitely promote Xiao Peng heavily if he signed him, so he couldn't just give away the signing fee for nothing, right? Maria and Ina had seen Xiao Peng's performance today, and not only Del's professionalism, but even they were impressed by his ability to control the situation. If Xiao Peng signed, he'd definitely become a star at electronic music festivals! He'd definitely be a big hit. That's why they decided to approach Xiao Peng.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Peng refused?
"Are you crazy?" Maria asked with wide eyes, "How could you miss such a good opportunity?"
Xiao Peng smiled and said, "Why should I follow other people's ideas? What you think is a good opportunity is not a good opportunity for me. I'm sorry to disappoint you two. It's okay, I'll be leaving first. The smell here is really bad."
"You..." Maria didn't know what to say. Ina blocked Xiao Peng's way and asked, "How can I know why?"
"Why?" Xiao Peng asked in confusion.
Ina asked, "Why did you refuse such a good opportunity?"
Xiao Peng replied, "You were there when I rejected Del just now, and you should have heard my reasons. I have my own job, how can I be an electronic music DJ?"
"Don't you know how important money is?" Maria asked, "What kind of work could be more important than making a lot of money?"
Ina said: "Unless you make more and more money, what do you do?"
Maria said, "Ina, stop joking! Does he look like a rich man? He's just a stubborn person!"
Xiao Peng shrugged: "Just treat me as a stubborn person. I'm sorry to disappoint you two beauties. Can I leave now?"
Maria and Ina did not stop him this time.
Xiao Peng walked out of the bathroom, and when he saw him, many people outside whistled at him.
"Dude, you're having a great time!" someone shouted.
"It's okay, it's okay." Xiao Peng waved his hand.
Damn, you're still envious? I didn't do anything, do you believe it?
A young man with brown hair came over with a beer and handed Xiao Peng a bottle. He then pulled him aside and asked mysteriously, "Brother, what method did you use?"
Xiao Peng laughed and said, "What's the secret to picking up girls? It all comes down to these seven words: bold, careful, and thick-skinned! Mastering these seven words will ensure you're always successful."
The young man smiled bitterly and said, "I've done all seven of these things! But I still don't have a chance! Do you have any other tricks up your sleeve?"
"Of course!" Xiao Peng grinned, "But do you think I can tell you?"
Before the young man could say anything, a group of people came over and said, "God, please teach us!"
Oh my god, how many people are surrounding here!
