Chapter 842: This Price Is a Little Low

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After hearing Li Nianwei’s words, everyone sucked in a deep breath of cold air.

We spend the money, to help Heloise with her publicity?! This, that… the money spent will be such a waste, right? However, it did seem like squandering. If this was not squandering, nothing else could be considered squandering…

“Sister Nianwei!” Ling Xiaoyi was stunned. She hurriedly said, “I felt like you can win first place in this competition. If we do this, won’t you…”

“It’s nothing much.” Li Nianwei said softly, “As long as I can help the Young Master, so what if I am a little aggrieved? Winning and losing are only temporary. If we can’t help the Young Master, his life might actually be threatened. Comparing the two, the Young Master is naturally more important. What do you think?”

“Nothing else needs to be said.” Li Yang stood up directly and said, “I will head to the Tower of Trials. I found out that I can train for the ‘Secrets of Dark Energy’ inside the tower. I will also practice the skills mentioned in the Last words by Tianji. Sister Nianwei is giving her all, us lackeys cannot just stand by and watch. If the Young Master runs into any trouble in the future, we are supposed to shield him from the bullets! Speaking of which, Brother Levis has been training hard too recently. He’s always at the Tower of Trials or the Thunder Battle Arena. I cannot lose to him. After all, we are the true original lackeys of the Young Master!”

His words gained everyone’s approval. Instantly, more than half the crowd had left. “We will go too. The Young Master treated us so well back then, we cannot lose out now. Together, together!”

Soon, only Li Nianwei and Ling Xiaoyi were left. Ling Xiaoyi said, “Sister Nianwei, regarding what you feel about the Young Master…”

“Let’s not mention that for now.” Li Nianwei smiled and said, “Let’s wait for the Young Master to come back first, then we’ll talk about it. Xiaoyi, I’ll leave the rest of the matters up to you.”

“Alright.” Ling Xiaoyi nodded. “I understand!”

…

Over the next few days, anyone in Shenluo City who even remotely enjoyed music was attracted by some huge news.

Two musical geniuses had appeared in Shenluo City!

The queen Heloise, and the goddess Li Nianwei!

Absolute geniuses of the music industry. They were the kind of treasures who existed only once a few decades or even centuries.

Of course, this was not important. The most important thing was that war had broken loose between the two of them. It could be called the battle of the century!

This was all that people could talk about, be it in the bars of the virtual world or the post-meal gossips in the real world.

“Eh, have you heard? Two incredible contestants have appeared on this year’s Sing! Milky Way. One is called Heloise, the other is called Li Nianwei. Their looks, their body, their skills, tsk tsk…”

“Of course I’ve heard. However, I feel like Li Nianwei is slightly better. She looks prettier than Heloise, and she sings well too. Have you heard her song ‘Time Boils the Rain’? It’s so good!”

“Yea, that’s for sure. I had it on loop the whole night, it does sound much better than Heloise’s song.”

“Eh eh eh, what are you talking about? Why aren’t you rushing to vote for your favorite singer? I heard that the fight between the two of them is more vicious than normal competitors!”

“Are you serious? I forgot about that. I’ll go now, I’ll go now!”

As a result, Heloise and Li Nianwei’s popularity continued to grow on Sing! Milky Way’s voting site. Their total votes were neck and neck. The intensity of the competition exceeded everyone’s imagination.

All the data on the Silver-blue super-planet was scaled up to more than ten times of the popularity contests on Earth!

If it was on Earth, it would be impressive for a singer to have a fan club of tens or even hundreds of thousands of people. However, the minimum starting point was a hundred thousand. The slightly more popular contestants would even begin at fan clubs with over millions of fans.

Inside the Wales Family Manor.

Heloise stood in front of the computer and listened to the AI butler’s updates about the latest voting results.

“Dear Miss Heloise,” the AI butler’s robotic voice said, “your current support stands at 1,986,523. As for Li Nianwei, her support stands at 2,134,854. In comparison, you are losing to her by a little in terms of support rate.”

“Li Nianwei, Li Nianwei!” Heloise clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. She said, “I can’t lose. There is no way I can lose! Somebody, come in! Come in!”

Soon a bodyguard walked in and politely asked, “Yes, Miss. How can I help you?”

“What happened to the publicity team I asked you all to find?” Heloise panicked and asked, “Why is there nothing going on?! I need a team! I need the biggest, best team there is!”

“Yes, Miss, but…” The bodyguard was in a dilemma. He said, “The team we are currently looking at has decent stats, but we can’t reach an agreement regarding the price. They are asking for twelve million Galaxy Dollars. We feel that the price is a little high now. Hence, we are negotiating with them now. I believe that we will soon reach a conclusion.”

After Heloise heard what the bodyguard said, her eyes instantly widened. She screamed, “Twelve million! Are they so poor that they’ve gone insane? That’s Galaxy Dollars! Not Planet Dollars! Twelve million Galaxy Dollars will be enough to buy a decent mansion! They’re asking for way too much!”

No wonder Heloise was so agitated and depressed. Although the prodigal Hong Dali always blew through tens of millions easily on the Silver-blue super-planet, in reality, ten million was not a small sum to normal people like Heloise.

It would not hurt a billionaire too much to spend a few million dollars. However, if someone only had a few hundred million dollars, twelve million would definitely be a hefty sum.

And now they were asking for twelve million dollars just for a simple publicity stunt with a fan club?

Heloise came from a fairly wealthy family. However, twelve million dollars was still no joke. This made her deeply depressed.

“Wait for me think about it, wait for me to think carefully!” Heloise was soaked in cold sweat. She tried her best to calm down. “Don’t panic, let me think! Let me think!”

“Yes, Miss.” The bodyguard left in a hurry.

Heloise thought about it for almost four hours. She was uncertain and could not decide. After all, twelve million dollars was no small sum.

“What’s my current support rate?” In the end, Heloise began shaking. She asked the AI butler, “What about Li Nianwei?”

“Dear Miss Heloise.” The AI butler’s voice was robotic and emotionless. It only reported the requested support rates. “Your current support rate is 5,621,324. Li Nianwei’s support rate is 6,841,457.”

“Wha… what?!” Heloise screamed. Her pitch was so high that it was almost comparable to a whistle register. “Li Nianwei’s popularity is higher than mine by over a million?! That’s not possible! That’s definitely impossible! I don’t believe it! I don’t believe it!”

“As your AI butler, there is no way I would lie about the statistics.” The AI butler had a monotone and emotionless voice, but it still expressed its dissatisfaction. “My settings do not allow me to upload falsified data.”

“Okay, I got it.” Heloise dug her head deep into her arms. She was depressed and said, “One million, one million…”

She mumbled to herself for over an hour before she yelled at the top of her lungs, “Come in! Come in!”

“Miss.” The bodyguard rushed in. “Yes, Miss?”

“Contact the publicity team for me. Twelve million, so be it!” Heloise’s heart was bleeding. The twelve million investment was way too huge. She originally thought five million would have been enough.

…

On the other end, inside a private clubhouse within the Shenluo City.

“Hello, Miss Ling Xiaoyi.” A well-dressed young man looked at Ling Xiaoyi, who sat in front of him. He smiled and said, “You are here to see me because…”

“I heard your publicity team is impressive.” Ling Xiaoyi smiled and said, “Hence, I wanted to collaborate with you.”

“That’s wonderful.” The man nodded and said, “And which contestant from Sing! Milky Way are you here on behalf of?”

“Heloise.” Ling Xiaoyi said, “I want popularity and support rate. The specific price can be determined by you.”

“Oh? You are here for Heloise too?” The man frowned and said, “To be honest, we find this deal with Heloise difficult. Miss Li Nianwei is simply too skilled. It’s incredibly difficult to overturn the current situation. Hence, the dozens of publicity teams in the industry are all asking for twelve million to take on the battle between Heloise and Li Nianwei. If the sum is any less, we will not take on the deal.”

For huge popularity contests like Sing! Milky Way, dozens of companies in the publicity industry had to collaborate on one deal. After all, the support rate could easily get into millions or tens of millions. One team or a few teams would not be enough.

Hence, the price rose as the number of teams rose.

Once she heard that, Ling Xiaoyi knew that Heloise definitely came to find them. It was obvious, though, that the price was too high for them to reach an agreement.

However, Ling Xiaoyi did not have to be concerned about that. She came here today to squander!

“Twelve million, it’s a little low.” Ling Xiaoyi smiled and said, “I’ll pay fifteen million. You just focus on publicizing. Generate as much data as you can!”

“Fifteen million!” The man was instantly stunned!

Fifteen million for a single deal. That was not an ordinary deal! He never came across any prices like that in his ten years in the publicity industry.

“Okay!” The man instantly agreed without another word. “We will get as many people involved as we can. We guarantee some stunning data for Miss Heloise! Please be rest assured about that Miss Ling!”

“I’ll be waiting to hear from you, then.” Ling Xiaoyi stood up and said, “I’ll transfer over a deposit of five million dollars now.”

“Okay!”
