Tokyo: The evil god doesn't want to be the top star

Chapter 357 Be prepared
"Since the authorities have taken over the show and changed the voting rules, there is nothing we can do."

Until the ending song started playing on the screen, Director Ozawa, who had been silent for who knows how long, stood up indignantly and slapped the table.

"But we can't let Xia Fan get too arrogant. He's basically declaring war on the organizers and all the participating trainees!"

Xia Fan's outspoken rap and arrogant performance on the stage were completely different from his usual gentle and elegant image. He interpreted the title of the song "Villain" to the fullest, and he looked like he was going to fight against half of the entertainment industry...

Even though he was given the task at a critical moment and the performance of the "Idol Birth Festival" had nothing to do with him, Director Ozawa felt that the lips and teeth would be in the same boat.

If all the participating trainees were like Xia Fan, who relied on his ability and achievements to talk nonsense and finally made his debut successfully, J Agency would have no face to continue holding the talent show, and would not be able to control the last stage of the "idol boy group production line".

"That's right, he's too arrogant. Does he really think that no one among the participating trainees can compare to him..."

The staff around also echoed.

"Ahem... Even if this batch of trainees is too weak, does he think that no one in the entire idol world can suppress him?"

However, when they thought of Xia Fan's impeccable image and temperament, and his "ceiling" level performance in singing, dancing, and rap, their tone always seemed a little lacking in strength.

"The feature film has been officially aired. In less than an hour, the number of views has approached one million. I don't have time to talk to you guys anymore..."

"Everyone, the all-out war in the idol boy band industry has begun!"

Jenny Matsudaira clapped his hands to stop the chaotic meeting atmosphere.

"In response to Xia Fan's remarks on stage, we will immediately initiate emergency public relations."

"At the same time, adjust the plan to snipe Xia Fan, contact S Company and A Company to coordinate resources, and arrange a 'professional team' to implement it immediately."

"This time, there is no funding cap for 'internal votes', publicity and promotion, or public opinion guidance. All resource mobilization authority is open to the 'temporary production committee'..."

"Even if we have to use all our strength and spare no expense, we must stop Xia Fan from making his debut."

If he doesn't speak, it's fine; but when he does, he says something shocking.

J Company's monopoly on the idol boy band business has been the foundation for Matsudaira Johnny to secretly spread the "One Word Lord" belief for decades. How could he just watch Xia Fan smash a hole in the high dam?

Besides, the current matter only involves commercial competition at the level of the "entertainment industry". Whether Xia Fan is the terrible "agent of the unknown god" has no effect on him who is behind the scenes.

"What? There is no funding limit..."

"All departments, submit the optimized plan within ten minutes, and implement it immediately after my review."

"receive……"

"It will only take me five minutes!"

Feeling the rare seriousness in Matsudaira Jenny's words, everyone took out their computers and phones and started working without Ozawa's supervision or arrangements.

But deep down, they still have a sense of unreality...

This seems to be the first time in decades since J-Corp was founded that it has combined the strength of three companies to prepare for a trainee who has not yet debuted.

Nishi-Shinjuku, Jishoin Temple Cat Jizo Hall, Buddhist Hall.

[Higashino Yoshiei: Ah, what did you do in the last performance? You changed the lyrics to that kind of offensive rap, and the acrobatic performance, why didn't you discuss it with me? ! ] [Hoshina Hanami: Xia Jun's rap and dance are both amazing, and he didn't have stage fright even when working with a senior like Yayoi Tsuki. I wish I had half of your confidence on stage! But, the organizers didn't get angry after releasing the lyrics, right? ]

[Horiie Tsubasa: This bold and avant-garde performance is really powerful. It is worthy of being the work of a musician who has come down to earth. However, it is very impolite to suddenly expose your belly in front of the camera.]

[Shirakawa Rika: You are as bold as ever. If you offend those companies, you will never be able to debut as an idol. My hard work every day will be in vain... However, it would be good if you could recognize that being an idol is a cheap 'youth meal' and focus on developing an 'evergreen career' like acting...]

[Yamazaki Hiroshi: Well done, Xia Jun! It seems that you have finally realized how shallow the idol industry is! The music promotion season is coming soon, and many big-name singers have specifically asked you to sing. When you are discharged from the hospital, you must come to the company...]

Just after watching the latest episode of "Idol Birth Festival", many LINE messages popped up on Xia Fan's phone.

[Nakano Eiji: Xia-kun, I've tried my best. If you can't make it as an idol, I'll always have a role for you. Thanks to you, I've got a lot of commercials and TV shows recently...]

Even Director Nakano sent a meaningless greeting text message.

“Why did Director Nakano say ‘I tried my best’… It’s so strange…”

"Speaking of which, those exaggerated performances on the performance stage were not edited out at all... What should I do? This is so embarrassing..."

Recalling his performance in the show just now, Xia Fan fell down weakly and rolled on the wooden floor under the feet of the cat Ksitigarbha statue.

It is impossible to say that I have no dissatisfaction with the program team's behind-the-scenes manipulation and suppression of me.

However, Xia Fan's submissive character and his mentality of "it doesn't cost any money to get a free ride" have kept it in his heart.

This time, with the personality of "Kazama Chikage", he got carried away and wrote all his thoughts into the lyrics, and even performed a "provocative" performance on the stage...

There was no need for people to tease him, as it was an extremely embarrassing memory for him as well.

Now, Xia Fan is extremely grateful that he is still in the "treatment observation period" and "investigation silent period". He does not need to go out to see people, nor does he have to reply to any messages or answer calls.

[Faith +1...Faith +1...Cumulative Faith Value: 50288]

[The accumulated faith value exceeds 50000. The gods are pleased with your contribution and grant you one wish.]

[The gods sent down an oracle: the cumulative faith value exceeds 500000, and you will be granted one chance to pray]

At the same time, due to the fight with Cat Ksitigarbha and Amabie, the faith value that had been fluctuating around 40,000 suddenly broke through the 50,000 mark without any warning.

The precious third wish has finally been fulfilled.

"Next time, he'll actually ask for 500,000 faith points. Tian Yu Shen is too evil..."

"Wait, the show has only been on for over an hour and the faith value has increased by nearly 10,000?"

"What on earth happened... Should I search myself... But it will become even more awkward, so I'd better not..."

Feeling joy, curiosity and embarrassment, Xia Fan picked up the phone and put it down again.

"Come to think of it, Jinguji didn't come today, nor did he contact me. Is he busy with the investigation?"

He casually flipped through the "sharp comments" messages sent by his acquaintances and found that the only missing piece was news about Jinguji Aoi.
