Su Muyan had to thank his manager and his music director for turning Xixi away, which ruined his chance to work with Xixi, and even more so, ruined his chance to greater heights!
Xixi had gone to him first, but all of them treated Xixi like a beggar, saying that he was crazy. The genius then went to Cosmos Entertainment and found Qi Xiu last, right?
This only meant that this opportunity should have been his!
**
The International Class was elated like it was the New Year. They kept an eye on the statistics of Qi Xiu’s physical album sales and the digital album sales on “Blind Tunes”. Every so often, they would report the numbers.
At this point in time, the concept of digital albums had not been established yet. Fans mainly bought physical albums and “Blind Tunes” was the first music app to sell digital albums.
The price of digital albums was relatively cheap, so by noon, five million copies were sold and sales had reached 50 million yuan.
Moreover, many new registered users fancied the overall impression of “Blind Tunes”, so they signed up to be VIP members for only 168 yuan per year. There were already more than 500,000 VIP users, which meant that “Blind Tunes” brought in 84 million yuan in revenue.
The biggest winner in this scenario was Cosmos Entertainment.
Yuan Yu’s phone call came quickly to report the good news to Shen Xi. On the other hand, he also said, “Little Sis, the Fu family’s boss just called me. He wanted to talk to us about a collaboration. What do you think?”
Shen Xi simply refused. “No.”
Yuan Yu did not give up and was ready to persuade her with reason. “Little Sis, if Cosmos Entertainment has the support of the Fu family, we don’t have to worry about funds anymore. Then, we’ll be able to establish a firm foothold in China soon and become the largest entertainment company in China! I did a quick calculation. Our five-year plan would be shortened by at least half. The Fu family said they’ll only do a capital injection and will absolutely not get involved in our company’s management.”
Shen Xi frowned. ‘What’s going on with Fu Qingli? Why is he pestering me? He went to the Situ family to look for her, and now he went to Big Brother…’
“Our company’s on the right track now. Even without the Fu family, we’ll hit our target earlier than planned. I know what you’re thinking. You just want to take advantage of the Fu family’s influence for smooth sailing, right? Big Brother, in life, we can’t stay in comfort and be complacent. We have to be brave to face challenges so that we can continue to improve.”
Shen Xi knew that if the Fu family became Cosmos Entertainment’s backer, they could not only do well within the country but would also expand globally. Not many would dare to provoke them too. However, Shen Xi just did not want to get involved with the Fu family for benefits.
“Is it because of Fu Qingye and Fu Qingxuan?” Yuan Yu asked her.
“No. I don’t like Fu Qingli.” Shen Xi replied honestly, word for word.
Yuan Yu choked for a moment and was stumped for words.
He was not so naive to think that it was so simple. His little sister would not just dislike someone for no reason.
Shen Xi continued, “Of course, it’s not just that. Me not liking him is only one of the factors. It’s very small, maybe even negligible. You shouldn’t believe that he’ll do as he says. Even if he said he won’t intervene, he’s a cold-blooded, shrewd businessman that only has business in his interests. Both of our brain-power added together is not enough to defeat him, so don’t give him the chance to eat us alive and leave us with no money and no company.”
It was not that Shen Xi did not have the confidence in herself or Yuan Yu, but it was a fact that they were not smart enough to outmaneuver Fu Qingli.

“Why do you make him sound like a cold-blooded tyrant? Is he that scary?” Yuan Yu asked her with a chuckle.
Yuan Yu also knew that for Fu Qingli to sit firmly as the Head of the Fu family at the age of 24 and had everyone fear him, he was certainly not a simple person.
Moreover, he single-handedly took over the Fu family business ten years ago, at the age of fourteen. It was such a huge business, yet a young boy could make everyone in the Fu family submit to him. This showed that he was extraordinary.
The elders of the Fu family and the other families standing at the top of the pyramid only said that this man was like an emperor.
“Yes, he absolutely is.” Shen Xi recalled her encounter with Fu Qingli and felt overwhelmingly suppressed and suffocated by his presence.
The only way was to get rid of the man.
“Then what should we do? I have a meeting with him in the evening, so come over and keep me company, please…” Yuan Yu felt that Ning Li was very prejudiced against Fu Qingli. “When did you meet him?”
“End of last month.” Shen Xi did not even need to think about it because that memory was etched so deep in her mind that she never wanted to see him again. “When you meet him, be on your full guard. Don’t let him wind you up.”
Yuan Yu said, “Alright, got it. I’ll take care of it.”
His younger sister, who had never felt threatened by anyone, actually had someone she was afraid of. This made Yuan Yu very curious to see how scary Fu Qingli was.
After Shen Xi hung up on Yuan Yu, Situ Zhangyou called her.
“Fu Qingli asked you to bring me over for a dinner party tonight?”
‘Ha! This two-timing son of a b*tch… He asked Big Brother to dinner, and now he invited Situ Zhangyou too? What is he up to? A joint dinner?’
“Yeah, he hopes that I can bring you along.” For fear of angering Shen Xi, Situ Zhangyou quickly added, “But I already told him you’re not going. I’m just informing you because I can’t escape from this.”
Shen Xi then advised him. “Don’t let him trick you into anything at the dinner, and don’t leak my details.”
“Got it.” Situ Zhangyou had a very strange feeling.
The Boss’s little lady treated the Fu family very differently from the others. She took Fu Qingxuan and Fu Qingye as her brothers and friends.
However, her attitude toward Fu Qingli was rather strange. It was not quite accurate to say that she did not like him, but more appropriate to say that she was a little afraid of him.
Shen Xi spent the afternoon with her head buried in books. In the last ten minutes of the last study session, she looked at the statistics table on the blackboard.
After a day of word-of-mouth, hot searches, and fans’ recommendations, Qi Xiu’s physical album sales were only 100,000 copies short of surpassing Su Muyan’s.
Song Wenye ran to the front, then took the duster and knocked it on the lectern. “Hey! Why are you guys so stingy? Will that little bit of money make you richer? Also, we’ve just won so much money, so it’s not much to shell out a million bucks each to buy some albums, right?”
The group shuddered and dared not speak. They just unanimously looked at Shen Xi, begging to be rescued. It was not that they were stingy. They had already helped to increase album sales by buying 1000 digital albums each. Forcing them to buy more would be unreasonable!
Besides, a million bucks could buy 10,000 copies, but what could they be used for? Thinking about how to deal with Song Wenye just gave them all a headache.
