This Girl Forced to Become an Entertainment Company Boss

Chapter 67

"More than half of the twenty-one trainees are facing their high school entrance exams in a few months, so when they went to Korea for training, a team of teachers was brought along specifically to tutor them."

"The teachers for dance and vocal courses are all well-reputed in the industry. They even invited a teacher from Japan to teach them Hip Hop."

"To avoid being disturbed by sasaeng fans, their schedule has always been kept private, and most of their travel is by chartered planes and cars."

"Their accommodation is also very good. During the show, they had single rooms, and I heard that in Korea, they\'re staying in a wealthy area with good security."

"To help them immerse more in the stage atmosphere, they were even taken to a music festival."

"Really, with SJYL investing so much, the trainees have no excuse not to perform well."

"Suddenly, I empathize with Jiang Juyou. If I invested so much money and only got average results, I\'d probably be furious."

"No wonder her expression wasn\'t great during the final performance. I wouldn\'t be happy either if I were her."

Comments section:

"How did you end up empathizing with the capitalists?"

"The investment is indeed huge, but other companies invest a lot too. Taking trainees to concerts is pretty standard."

"Speechless, can you name any other company that charters planes for their trainees? Is praising SJYL for doing a good job so unbearable to you?"

"Yes, that\'s why I really don\'t understand those who criticize Jiang Juyou. Their current level might be okay for some minor performances in the domestic entertainment industry, but they\'re not up to international standards. I don\'t know what these critics are complaining about."

"But the trainees have grown very quickly. They only trained on weekends and evenings for five months, and their growth is already impressive. Why do we need to exaggerate or suppress education? Is it so hard to give a compliment?"

"[Eye roll] How is this suppressing education? Since when did stating facts become suppressing education? If you can\'t even handle having your shortcomings pointed out clearly, why bother living?"

"I don\'t know why you bunch of leeks keep empathizing with capitalists. Got too much money?"

"Some people, don\'t be so resentful of the wealthy. Always going on about \'capital 208w\', as if they\'ve taken your money."

"Come on, praise her when she does well, criticize when she doesn\'t. Can we not take out loans in advance?"

"If we can\'t suppress education, then what\'s wrong with me coddling Random Entertainment?"

"Feeling pity for Jiang Juyou."

The news of Random Entertainment taking their trainees to attend a music festival in the US spread in China, and the reason was also explained.

A fan asked Jiang Juyou on the Galexy World App\'s feedback Q&A why they took the trainees to Coachella. They thought it was just for show, but Jiang Juyou actually replied.

[Chief Producer Jiang Juyou: Hello, thank you for your concern about Random Entertainment\'s trainees. Regarding the trainees\' schedule, we cannot disclose it publicly. As for attending the music festival, it\'s part of their curriculum. We will also clarify the false rumors online. Thank you for your concern.]

Shortly after this reply was posted by fans, Random Entertainment\'s official account responded to the false rumors that had been circulating online the day before.

However, since the rumors hadn\'t spread widely, many passersby were unclear about the situation and came in criticizing Random Entertainment for being dramatic and buying trending topics, even dragging Sang Mo into it.

But Random Entertainment\'s fans weren\'t focused on the response, instead they were like—

"Damn, Jiang Juyou actually reads these?"

"Crap, wife, I\'m here!"

"Suggest everyone direct their complaints straight to Jiang Juyou\'s face!"

Random Entertainment\'s fans immediately opened the Galexy World App, navigating through the settings to find the [Suggestions and Feedback] button, and then the [Chief Producer Jiang Juyou] option within it.

Now all kinds of messages started pouring in.

However, those abusive messages that even human brains would need to process were directly filtered out, and the senders were even given a warning. If it happened again, they would be blacklisted by the platform and unable to participate in any activities on the Galexy World App.

But this didn\'t stop people\'s actions. Instead, they discussed how to complain on Weibo and then launched another attack.

This time, Jiang Juyou\'s to-do list exploded, and even the system spoke up, asking her, "...Do you need me to help filter these?"

Jiang Juyou: "..."

The Random Entertainment team, still in California, only learned about the online news this morning. They urgently contacted the PR team back in China and even woke up the bed-loving Jiang Juyou.

The subsequent handling was as Chinese netizens saw: Jiang Juyou first responded, and then the official account immediately came out to clarify.

The trainees, on the other hand, were still unaware of this news. They had just woken up, still immersed in the excitement from last night, eating brunch and discussing what to wear, what to see, and what to play later.

They say they\'re here to learn, but they often forget this easily. Yet when it comes to making a study plan, they don\'t know where to start.

"Being at ease" is a phrase one can\'t feel for themselves. Sometimes the person on stage might seem confident, but the audience can\'t empathize.

How can they learn from this music festival and apply it to their own performances?

Sang Mo, with his messy bed hair, was eating breakfast with a fork, sitting next to Pei Luming. They were only a year apart, but their builds were very different. Sang Mo had broad shoulders and muscular arms, while Pei Luming next to him looked like a little weakling.

Chen Wu, carrying his plate over, glanced at the two and said, "Pei Luming, I advise you to know your place. Don\'t wear sleeveless shirts and sit next to Sang Mo."

Pei Luming, with his mouth full, suddenly stopped chewing and shot a glare across the table, then scooted his butt to the side a bit.

He fiercely bit into his fried egg, "I\'m building muscle!"

Just then, another person with a build no less impressive than Sang Mo\'s appeared.

Although Chi Qiao was wearing a short-sleeved shirt, he had rolled up his sleeves. Having just finished arm exercises, his biceps were still pumped, the muscle contours particularly noticeable.

With two 1.8-meter-tall soon-to-be high school students sitting next to Pei Luming, he looked even more like a weakling.

As soon as Chi Qiao sat down, everyone around started laughing at Pei Luming. Chi Qiao was confused and looked around, "What\'s going on?"

Everyone just laughed without saying anything, while Pei Luming snatched the milk from Chi Qiao\'s plate, "You\'re not allowed to drink this! I\'ll drink it!"

Chi Qiao looked utterly bewildered, "If you want to drink it, go ahead..."

Gao Xiayu, meanwhile, was quietly eating his breakfast, occasionally picking up his phone to type something.

Yao Shuo saw this and shook his head, "Too intense, bro. Don\'t be so hardcore early in the morning."

"No, I\'m just replying to a message."

"I don\'t believe you."

"..."

Just as Gao Xiayu switched to the video interface, Ye Xing, passing by from behind, noticed and immediately told Yao Shuo: "He\'s just watching stage performance videos."

"See, I told you!" Yao Shuo immediately looked around, proving he wasn\'t wrong.

The brunch ended in their lively chatter, and they immediately went downstairs to change clothes and get styled before heading to Coachella.

Today\'s leaked photos were much more than yesterday\'s, with photos and videos of them watching performances inside the venue circulating online from time to time.

Because of their height, Sang Mo and Chi Qiao were easily noticeable, and after their pictures trended, they were even recognized and questioned by passersby for a long time.

It\'s just a music festival, and Jiang Juyou didn\'t expect them to learn much, but there are many more to come, and they will eventually be able to sense that subtle emotion and atmosphere.

Today is also their last day of official "classes" here, but Jiang Juyou isn\'t constantly with them. Instead, she\'s gone elsewhere to enjoy her own time.

Without Jiang Juyou around, the trainees are more free. They\'re all shouting and singing at the top of their lungs, completely disregarding the fact that they still have vocal lessons later.

The staff have to watch over them, constantly reminding them to apply sunscreen, all while remembering to film behind-the-scenes footage.

Trainees like Ye Xing, who are considered "good kids," tend to have the hardest time letting loose. Usually on stage, he has to constantly focus on his singing and dancing, making sure they\'re perfect, leaving no room to actually enjoy being on stage.

Today, however, he was infected by the atmosphere of the live event. With people shouting around him, he finally let himself go, going wild to the point of disregarding his image.

Chi Qiao and Sang Mo were the ones who knew how to truly enjoy the music. They were primarily dance trainees and would often freestyle to music in the practice room.

Standing next to Ye Xing, they put their arms around him and Yao Shuo, teaching them how to headbang to the music.

The hairstyles that took half an hour to perfect that morning were ruined in less than a minute.

But without the polished packaging of their usual look, their vitality became even more apparent.

It was as if exquisitely crafted dolls suddenly gained emotions and warmth, their fair cheeks flushed with excitement and heat.

Their faces no longer showed the fixed expressions they had practiced hundreds of times in front of the mirror, but genuine joy and excitement.

This was exactly what Jiang Juyou wanted them to learn, though they didn\'t realize it yet.

Amidst this revelry, they welcomed the sunset, and when the starry night fell again, they moved to Coachella\'s main stage to begin their formal learning.

Since they hadn\'t queued up in advance, they could only watch the big screen from afar.

Those who could perform on the main stage as headliners were all the big draws selling tickets for this year\'s music festival, with songs that everyone knew how to sing at the very least.

When the stage was set up and the lights began to work, they cheered with their phones held high.

Jiang Juyou was also holding her phone at this time, turning the camera towards the trainees and zooming in to carefully record their expressions.

One by one, they stared at the scenes on their phone screens, their eyes gleaming with admiration and aspiration.

I\'ve been feeling unwell these past few days, so updates have been coming late. I\'ll make it up to you all later. For those who sleep early, just come and read it the next morning!
