Create MYGO second creation, but make them cry

Page 222

She acknowledged that both Takamatsu Akari and Shiina Tatsuki were still talented and gifted individuals.

But that's just a future prospect. As a fellow lead singer, Gao Songdeng is far inferior to Sanka Chuka now.

But Xiangzi couldn't wait; what she wanted was to immediately transform the band into a commercial one.

After everyone had finished introducing themselves, Toyokawa Shoko calmly said, "Although everyone should already know this, I still want to emphasize that we are not an amateur band, not the kind of childish game where 'as long as everyone tries their best, that's enough.'"

Our goal is to reach the top of the Budokan as quickly as possible.

"You are all members I personally selected, and I believe you all have the ability."

"Huh?! Am I really that good? Actually, I'm not very confident," Miao Meng interrupted with a smile.

Xiangzi instinctively wanted to frown, but then she remembered that the band was newly formed and that she wasn't very familiar with the other two members besides Chuhua and Xiaomu.

She was also mentally prepared that, as a newly formed band, each member had a different personality and it was impossible to achieve the same seamless coordination as before in the band "Ku Lai Xi Ku".

"Then you're the one who should be practicing the most," Xiangzi said calmly.

Indeed, if we were to compare the instrumental skills of those present, the person with the least stable fundamentals would probably be Yutenji Wakanagi.

"I think so too. Then could you please lend me Banami-kun, Captain? After all, it would be a waste to leave such a talented musical genius around, wouldn't it?"

After so much buildup, the map of the Yan Kingdom has finally been revealed.

“Indeed, I’ve also watched ‘Boyfriend-kun’s’ videos, and I’m very interested in your songs,” Hachiman Kairei said calmly.

Xiangzi's veins bulged involuntarily. Although she had known from the beginning that Youtian Temple Ruomai disliked her, she did not expect that she would look like this during their first gathering.

Xiangzi couldn't help but glare at the boy next to him.

Banai couldn't help but laugh to herself. No, could it be that I am the biggest obstacle to the establishment of the Mother Chicken Card?

"Miss Yutenji, I think it would be better to hear what Saki-chan has to say first."

At this moment, Mikasa Chika gently advised, subconsciously acting as a peacemaker.

"Just call me Meow Dream, okay? Chu Hua, you're such a big star, but I never knew you were such a kind person in private. Hope you get a chance to appear on my show sometime, you'll definitely be a hit! Meow~~"

Teacher DaMiao wants to take this opportunity to develop her side business.

Xiangzi glanced at her, then clapped his hands lightly and said, "Let's not talk about that for now. Now that we've set our goals, let's talk about the band's debut plans."

First of all, I have already discussed with Hatsuka's agency, "Win-Wing Production," that we can debut through semi-self-funding, but the initial start-up qualification requires five million yen.

The agency will handle our band's promotion and arrange live performances.

Teacher Da Miao whistled softly and said, "Isn't this a pretty good deal? No wonder she's the young lady of the Fengchuan Group; she gets such favorable prices."

Xiangzi's expression immediately darkened; what she feared most was others bringing up her surname.

However, what Miaomeng said was true. This kind of self-funded debut would definitely not be so cheap if it weren't for her surname and Chuhua's relationship.

However, what Xiangzi said next left Miaomeng speechless.

"However, the new band doesn't have enough funding right now. I can only come up with a maximum of one million yen."

"You, the young lady of the Fengchuan Group, can't even come up with five million? Are you kidding me?" Teacher Da Miao was somewhat incredulous.

However, Banami had the opposite thought in her mind. No wonder Professor Daisho had asked her to withdraw her share of the royalties, which was about 300,000 yen.

Unexpectedly, in a short period of time, Xiangzi managed to save up 700,000 yen by working as a customer service representative, newspaper deliveryman, convenience store clerk, and civil engineering assistant.

This is after deducting Xiangzi and her father's living expenses.

Xiang, the migrant worker warrior, you are so powerful.

It's unimaginable how sore Teacher Da Xiang's feet must have been after doing so much physical labor.

If he hadn't been so impatient, Mr. Daisho might have actually been able to raise five million yen by himself through part-time jobs.

A faint sense of admiration welled up in Banami's heart; the Toyokawa family's cattle and horse genes were truly powerful.

She has the body of a maid but the fate of a young lady.

"That's my private matter, and I can't tell you about it," Xiangzi said bluntly.

She naturally couldn't tell the rest of the band about her secret of running away from the Toyokawa family.

Although Chu Hua and Xiao Mu already knew.

This clearly shows the closeness and distance among the members of this newly formed band.

Xiangzi, Chuhua, and Ruoye Mu are also very good friends. The three of them are very close, so there is nothing to worry about.

However, as a drummer, Miyako had many thoughts on her mind. She agreed to join Shoko's team, just as she said, because of the daughters of the Wakaba and Toyokawa families.

Moreover, she makes no attempt to hide her selfish motives.

As for Hachiman Kairin... she still views everyone with the perspective of an outsider.

To put it bluntly, in Banami's opinion, the new bands don't seem to have any of the qualities that can be called "team spirit."

"If that's the case, then who will pay the remaining four million? You don't mean you're trying to squeeze money out of a poor guy like me, do you? That's going too far."

Miao Meng said with a smile, "Although she is not worried about food and drink for the time being, she is just a country girl who came to Tokyo to study. Is it a bit too much for you, a young lady from a big corporation, to want me to pay for your band?"

"I didn't say that," Xiangzi said, somewhat annoyed.

"If that's not me, then could it be Hailin-chan?" Miaomeng asked softly.

Although it was their first meeting, the girl, who was being called Hailing-chan, remained silent and said, "Taking a loan to work is not my way of doing things."

He exudes the aura of a legendary mercenary.

Chu Hua couldn't help but chuckle awkwardly. Come to think of it, the two of them were in the same class, although they weren't very familiar with each other.

"How about... I'll pay for it myself..." Chu Hua couldn't help but say.

Everyone couldn't help but look at her, after all, the only person who could be considered to have a real income now was the already famous Mitsukasa.

As for Ms. Triangle, she would absolutely be willing to participate at her own expense as long as she could form a band with Xiangzi.

Xiangzi immediately objected, saying, "But Chuhua, you still have to send money to your mother on the island every month, and you need to maintain your idol status, which requires a lot of money."

Xiangzi couldn't possibly ask Chuhua for money directly.

So, only...Wakaba Mutsu was left on the scene.

"I have no money," Xiao Mu said, holding her guitar.

Miao Meng's eyes widened in surprise, then she teased, "Luckily you didn't say anything like 'What is money?'"

Ruoye Mu looked up and glanced at Miaomeng. Miaomeng's fingers trembled slightly, but she still kicked back.

“But didn’t I hear ‘you’ say before that you’ made a lot of money from your parents?” Banami emphasized the word “you”.

Ruoye Mu then said in a lifeless voice, "That's Metis's money. She won't let me touch it."

Banami immediately lost her composure. "You two sisters are quite conscious of your finances. Favors are one thing, but the money should be kept separate, right?"

As a result, this newly established galactic battleship encountered a major problem at the very beginning, and even faced the crisis of disbandment.

I'm broke.

Chapter Six: The Despicable Golden Retriever

The saying goes, "Even a hero can be brought down by a penny," and this newly formed, ambitious band has encountered this very unideal problem.

I have no money.

Teacher Da Xiang needs a dazzling, professional band to earn money for his family, prove himself, and cheer up his father.

However, forming a professional band requires money, and these teenage girls don't have any right now.

If you don't have money, go start a band to make money. But you need money to start a band.

Miao Meng said with a smile, "Captain, stop pretending. If you didn't have a sure solution, you wouldn't have called everyone out like this, would you?"

Xiangzi glanced at her, then said with a straight face, "I just wanted to hear everyone's thoughts first. Since that's the case, I'll share my thoughts."

Our band, which doesn't even have a name yet, is currently lacking in many things, such as the overt issue of funding.

But that's not the only problem. There's also the issue of band members getting along, choosing musical styles—we were completely clueless about all of these things…

However, if you need to form a professional band, you can't just do whatever you want.

Banami thinks that Xiangzi was probably referring to Xiaodeng when she said that.

Xiao Deng is indeed very talented; her lyrics are imaginative and she has created many outstanding songs.

However, Xiao Deng's creative process was basically unplanned, so MYGO's songs give the impression of having very different styles.

While some people may enjoy this novelty, one of the indicators of a band's professional maturity is the consistency of its song style.

Xiangzi stopped being mysterious and said, "Therefore, I plan to use war to sustain war."

Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback, but Hai Ling, being a mercenary, quickly understood what she meant and said, "You mean, we should first form a band and then earn money for our debut through commercial performances?"

"That's right, during this time, besides working..."

Upon hearing the word "part-time job," Hai Ling and Miao Meng looked at the young lady of the Fengchuan Group with slight confusion.

Xiangzi blushed, but quickly straightened his face and said, "We've also contacted places like bars, business agencies, music festivals, and paid live performances. As long as we pass the audition, we can perform."

Although we had no reputation at the beginning, our income was very low.

But during this time, we can also refine the band's style and develop a better synergy.

Hai Ling said in a calm voice, "It's a very pragmatic style, I have no objection."

But Miao Meng complained, "Ugh, this is too much trouble. I was hoping to debut and be welcomed by everyone right away. But with Chu Hua here, we'll definitely get a lot of attention from the start."

Just as Hatsuka was about to speak, Shoko interrupted, "Including Hatsuka, we will wear masks during our performances so that no one will know that the lead singer is SUMIMI's Mitsumi Hatsuka."

“SAKI-chan, it’s okay, even if I use my real name…” Hatsuka said softly.

"Yeah, yeah, we have such good resources, why not use them?" Miaomeng protested.

As a result, Xiangzi stood up and said, "If Chu Hua uses her real name, it will have a bad influence on SUMIMI, and it will also have a bad influence on your partner, Junda Mana."

But the reason I want to hide everyone's identities is not just that. I hope we can create a band that attracts people purely through music, not through personal identities.

Even if it's just to make money, I want to earn it while maintaining my integrity.

This brings us to the issue of the band's musical philosophy. Xiangzi doesn't want the band to initially attract popularity by relying on labels such as the young lady of the Wakaba family, the eldest daughter of the Toyokawa family, and the popular idol Mitsumi Hatsuka.

That would destroy the still-developing core of this new band.

Miao Meng scoffed, "As expected of a young lady, you're so naive. Do you know how fierce the market competition is these days? If you have resources, you should make the most of them."

Xiangzi said earnestly, "I said before that I hope you will entrust your lives to me, and I will give you all a satisfactory answer, including you, Miss Yutianji Ruomai."

Seeing her serious expression, Miaomeng realized that the two seemed to be at odds, neither willing to back down.

Just then, Banami clapped her hands lightly and said, "I remember there's a really good vegetable pancake place around here. I bet none of you have eaten yet. I'll buy some for you."

Everyone couldn't help but look at the boy, and the tension between Miaomeng and Xiangzi had eased slightly.

Chu Hua glanced at Xiangzi and then said, "Then, I'll go buy some too."

After saying that, he stood up.

Meow Dream seemed to have calmed down a bit, not wanting to make things too awkward at their first gathering, especially after Banami reminded her.

She simply said, "Whether or not to wear a mask is another matter. I roughly know what you're thinking, but what about Banami? You wouldn't even bother to make use of his talent, would you?"

“Hanami is not one of our members, I will take his opinion into consideration…”

Even as Banami and Hatsuka gradually walked away, the sounds of their exchange could still be heard.

Banami didn't think that Nyanmu was deliberately being argumentative, although she was definitely genuinely unhappy with Ooshiro-sensei.

But the issues she raised were all very practical.

Moreover, he had a question for a long time: although he had never seen the live performance of the mother chicken card, he could see it at the end of MYGO.

Putting aside funding and other issues, what puzzled him most was how Mother Hen Card acquired her fans.

This band seems to have appeared out of nowhere, taking a high-profile approach with high-caliber performances, and inexplicably attracting a group of fans from the very beginning.

But in the beginning, no one knew Xiangzi and her friends' true identities. How did they attract their first batch of fans?

If it's just about outstanding music, that's fine, but it takes time to develop and mature.

Judging from Teacher Da Xiang's current reaction, it seems that Mother Hen Card followed this "fighting to sustain itself" approach from preparation to its first high-profile performance.

Anyway, for the parts that didn't make sense, Banami could only guess.
