Ignoring Bai Yu and the others, the woman in the suit raised her head, her gaze falling directly on Eriri and Kasumigaoka Utaha, a formulaic smile playing on her lips: "Eri Kashiwagi-sensei, Utaha Kasumigaoka-sensei, I've heard so much about you. I'm Akane Kousaka, the head of the rougeenrouge club."

Eriri frowned. She had heard of Akane Kousaka, who was known in the industry for her ruthless methods and was particularly merciless when poaching people.

Kasumigaoka Utaha crossed her arms and said coldly, "President Akasaka, what do you want with us?"

Akane Akasaka pulled a document from her bag and pushed it in front of the two of them. She spoke quickly and confidently, her tone leaving no room for doubt: "Time is money, let's get straight to the point."

"I've seen your work, and it shows great potential... If you two join my group, I can provide you with the best resources: an independent studio, top-tier team support, and a 30% cut of sales..."

She paused, her gaze sweeping over the two of them with a hint of condescension, "With your current team, you'll at best be somewhat famous. Only by following me can you truly stand at the top of the industry."

At this moment, Iori Hashima chimed in, "Teachers, what President Akasaka said is true. Our club recently signed several big IPs. As long as you join, you won't have to worry about exposure and resources."

Eriri picked up the document, glanced at it, and pushed it back, saying firmly, "Sorry, not interested."

She only attends comic conventions out of interest, to fulfill a past dream, and will not attend again in the future.

As for Akane Akasaka and Iori Hashima's talk about joining the company, they had absolutely no interest in it.

The next deadly game is coming soon. Do you think she'll still be in the mood to paint?

Kasumigaoka Utaha sneered, "A 30% cut? That sounds like a lot, but everyone in the industry knows about President Akasaka's methods... Joining your company, I'm afraid we won't even be able to protect the copyright of our works in the end, right?"

The people at this big company are far too arrogant.

They thought everything could be about money.

"..."

Seeing that the two were so disrespectful, Akane Akasaka's smile instantly froze, and her eyes darkened, turning sharp: "Teachers, aren't you even going to look at the contract?"

In her opinion, the two of them were talented, but their arrogant attitude made Akane Kurosaka very unhappy.

She had seen many geniuses, but she had never seen anyone dare to treat her like that.

"I advise you two to think it over carefully, as this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

She tapped her fingers on the table, her voice calm, yet her attitude subtly tinged with arrogance: "Only by staying by my side can your talents truly flourish."

“Instead of…” At this point, the woman raised her beautiful eyes slightly, looked at Bai Yu beside her, and said with a hint of disdain and sarcasm, “being with someone who knows nothing.”

Akane Akasaka was well-prepared to bring people to poach talent.

Not only Eriri and her companion, but also Shiraha, who was close to them, was investigated as well.

According to the information, the other party has never been involved in any industry related to this field, and it is unknown how he managed to deceive two outstanding talents.

If one plays the bad cop, the other naturally has to play the good cop.

Iori Hashima chimed in, "You two, please consider this carefully. The club led by Akane Akasaka is a top-tier club in the industry."

He genuinely felt it was a pity.

Eriri and Kasumigaoka Utaha have no idea what they've missed.

This is a rare and precious opportunity.

Countless people in the industry are scrambling to get their hands on it.

Those two are really stupid; they wasted such an opportunity.

"By the way... you may not know my attitude towards talent." Akane Akasaka said indifferently, "If I can't bring you two under my command, I may have to resort to desperate measures to make sure you can't stay in any club."

Quiet.

no respond.

To the surprise of Iori Hashima and Akane Kousaka, even after they had made it clear, neither Utaha Kasumigaoka nor Eriri seemed to care at all. 3.9

In the eyes of Akane Akasaka, an industry giant, these two were completely ungrateful.

I came all this way to see you, and you didn't even open the contract to look at it.

Even if you're going to refuse, at least make a show of it.

The woman's pretty face visibly darkened: "I'll say it again, if I want to, I can make sure you don't receive any manuscripts at any time, and even take down your previous works... Are you sure you want to go against me?"

Just then, Bai Yu, who had been silent all along, suddenly laughed. He walked up to Akane Kousaka, looked down at her, and said casually, "President Kousaka, is it? My people said they're not interested, so why are you still bothering me?"

Akane Akasaka looked up at Shiraha with disdain in her eyes: "Kid, you don't know anything at all. Do you even know what 2D is or what manga is?"

"You're just using your good looks to deceive young girls."

Bai Yu shook his head, not angry, but asked Kato Megumi next to him to do some research: "Megumi, help me find out about the rougeenrouge group and the investment company behind it, how much it would cost to buy it all."

Kato Megumi could actually use her hacking skills to investigate directly, but to put on a show, she pulled out her phone from her bag and quickly replied, "Team Leader Shiraha...kun, I'll check right away. My preliminary estimate is that the entire organization, including the investment company behind it, is valued at around 500 million yen. Do you want to buy it?"

She had already guessed Bai Yu's thoughts.

"Only 500 million?" Bai Yu scoffed, his eyes sweeping over Akane Akasaka's face, which instantly froze. "So cheap? No need to wait, buy it now."

"In addition, after the acquisition is completed, all partners will be notified to terminate all cooperation with rougeenrouge."

"If they disagree, just throw money at them until they agree."

"Also, Akane Kousaka and Iori Hashima are no longer permitted to work for any company related to anime and manga."

Chapter 76 Becoming a Woman, Eriri's First Time, Opening a New Chapter!

After saying that, Bai Yu looked at Akane Kousaka's pretty face, whose expression had suddenly changed, and said with a hint of amusement, "President Kousaka just said that I may not know as much about the industry as you do, but I can make myself the industry leader."

"You...you're insane!!"

Akane Akasaka was trembling all over.

She couldn't believe what she was hearing.

A full 500 million yen, and the other party just bought it without hesitation?

All the funds and connections she had accumulated were utterly insignificant in the face of absolute financial power!

She stood up abruptly, pointing her finger at Bai Yu, her voice trembling: "You...who are you? Who exactly are you?"

"Who am I?" Bai Yu looked down at her, a cold smile playing on his lips. "I am Bai Yu, Eriri and Shiyu's boss, and also your future... direct superior."

Jingle Bell......

"Jingle Bell......"

Just then, Akane Akasaka's phone suddenly rang without warning.

The latter's expression changed, and he quickly answered the call.

The caller was the treasurer of her club, and her voice was filled with panic: "President! Something terrible has happened! Our investment company has been acquired in full!"

"The new boss has ordered all funds to be frozen and you to be removed from your position as president!"

"Impossible! This is impossible!!"

Akane Akasaka was horrified and collapsed to the ground like a deflated balloon.

Bang!

The phone slipped from her hand and shattered on the ground.

She looked at Bai Yu.

His eyes were filled with despair and regret.

Years of hard work were ruthlessly destroyed in one fell swoop.

This filled Akane Akasaka's heart with bitterness.

"this......?!"

Iori Hashima panicked completely. He looked at Shiraha, his face pale, his lips trembling, "Mr...Mr. Shiraha, I'm sorry, we didn't mean to...we just...we just came to discuss cooperation..."

At this moment, he was filled with deep regret. If only he had known the other party was so powerful...

Even if he had a hundred lives, he wouldn't dare to poach people, much less join Akane Akasaka in threatening them!

Now look what happened! Not only did they fail to recruit anyone, they also ruined their promising future!

Who would have thought that a teenager could be so rich?

With just a phone call, the entire "rougeenrouge" corporation, worth 500 million, could be bought.

"Money is worthless to me." Bai Yu 15 shook his head.

Others talk as if they're showing off, but he genuinely thinks it's all useless.

Even if you have a lot of money, what can you buy in a death game?

No matter how much money he has, he's afraid he might not live to spend it one day.

These people living in peaceful societies will never understand the shackles they bear.

Akane Akane looked at the shattered phone on the ground.

She glanced again at Eriri and Kasumigaoka Utaha, who were standing calmly beside Shiraha.

She suddenly realized how ridiculous her threat had been. Everything she had accumulated—funds, connections, organizations—was nothing more than something that could be bought with a flick of the wrist in the other person's eyes.

The woman opened her mouth.

I wanted to say something, but I found that my throat felt blocked.

He couldn't utter a single word.

Only endless regret welled up in her heart, making Akane Akane almost unable to breathe.

The blow came too quickly and too harshly.

She didn't even have a chance to react.

He went from being a well-known bigwig who once dominated the industry to someone who was nobody in an instant.

This nearly drove Akane Akasaka to a mental breakdown.

Bai Yu felt no sympathy for such a person.

Don't forget, it was Akane Akasaka who was arrogant and haughty, not giving Eriri and Utaha Kasumigaoka any way out.

Then don't blame him for defending his woman and giving her a good slap in the face.

The air was as silent as if it had frozen.

Ignored, Iori Hashima gradually sank into despair.

He had just been chiming in for Akane Akasaka, telling Eriri and Utaha Kasumigaoka, "This is a rare opportunity."

But at this moment, the boy truly understood what he saw as a "top opportunity."

It was nothing in Bai Yu's eyes.

late at night.

As the sun sets, the dusky night keeps its appointment with the sky.

A luxury hotel.

Bai Yu leaned against the window with a relaxed expression.

Behind.

Akane Akasaka knelt on the expensive Persian carpet.

Long red hair cascaded down the ground like flowing water.

Her beautiful eyes were filled with humiliation.

Three hours ago, she was a powerful president in the industry, but now she has lost all her dignity.

However, in order to protect the company, Akane Kousaka had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure.

"look up."

suddenly.

Bai Yu's voice came from above.

Akane Akane instinctively looked up.

He immediately shuddered.

She saw the silver necklace dangling from Bai Yu's fingers.

His own name was even engraved on it.
