36 An Unforgettable Nigh (1/2)

”This…” Hearing Hong Dali asking her Missy to sing at a nightclub like this, the manager appeared to be awkward. ”Young Master Dali, there are too many people here. I'm afraid Missy will get a shock…”

”It's good that there are many people here. There are even more people in a concert.” Hong Dali grinned as he said. ”The masses have sharp eyes. A singer that can gain the liking of the masses must be a good singer. Otherwise, it's useless regardless of how much you praise her. What do you think?”

Hong Dali was her last hope. Without his support, her bosom friend, Miss Li Nianwei, would only have two choices. One was to give in to the boss' rule. The other was to be benched, which would mean not releasing a single record or song throughout the entire contract period and being forgotten by everyone once she was past the prime of her career.

Compared to these two choices, Hong Dali was not asking for much. And he was not wrong—if she didn't have the guts to sing in front of the crowd here, it would be useless for her to be confident on her own.

In that case, we might as well go all out! No matter what, this Young Master was known for squandering. There were no rumors of him being a playboy, nor was there any gossip concerning women. She could rest assured that they would be safe. The manager took out her cell phone. ”I'll call our Missy now!”

As she made the phone call in a corner, Hong Dali asked Ling Xiaoyi, ”Xiaoyi, that Huawei Entertainment, the boss looks rather domineering. Their company is making a lot?”

”They're okay.” Ling Xiaoyi whispered. ”Movies have not been doing well. The environment has not been very good, after all. But his company did produce two money-making movies. I heard there were about 60 million ticket sales, which earned them quite a bit. They're at their peak. It should not be easy to take over their company at this time.”

Only 60 million ticket sales for two movies? So little?

Hong Dali got suspicious. In fact, it was only slightly more than 300 million yuan if converted to RMB. After deducting the cost of production and the movie theater's share, there wasn't much left. To have earned this little for two movies, it could only be considered a small production on Earth. It was just a little better than the worst. To think that this was considered ”at their peak”?!

It seems like, in this world, making a movie is closely related to squandering. I like it!

Very soon, the manager walked over, appearing cheerful. ”Young Master Dali, Missy will be here very soon.”

”Um, okay.” Hong Dali propped his feet up on the side table. Someone had already brought drinks over. He took one of them and started drinking. ”Does she have any new songs? Old songs will do as well. But they must be good. Don't sing songs that can put people to sleep. This is a nightclub, after all. You can't make people sleep after singing two songs.”

”Yes, yes, yes.” The manager claimed delightedly. ”The company hasn't been writing songs for Missy due to the rules, but she has composed a few songs on her own, and they are not bad. I will get her to pick two songs with a livelier rhythm.”

”Ai yo, not bad. She writes her own songs? That's great.” Hong Dali laughed. ”If her songs please me, I'll take her under my new company. I will even cover the fees for the breach of contract with Huawei. How does that sound?”

”Good, good!” The manager was elated to hear this.

Who was this person? The most famed prodigal in all of Tianjing City. To put it in simple terms, he had nothing but money. And there was one good thing about this young master: not only was he rich, but he also squandered money like nobody's business.

To be under him, all the roads would open with his money. Even if the team was comprised of amateurs, it shouldn't be too bad. When Missy got famous, she could help the company recruit a few experts. That was definitely better than working at Huawei in a state of anxiety. With the Hong family as their backers, who would dare to force Missy to do anything she didn't like?

The classmates peered in and beamed as they saw Hong Dali. ”I knew Bro Dali would be here. Bro Dali, what is the mystery present? Show it to us? Everyone can't wait to see it!”
