Chapter 1150: Chapter 108: Girl Group (Please Subscribe!)
Evening.
Tang Qing and Lin Jiaxue’s parents rushed to the Manor.
Even if their son was very wealthy now,
they were both used to being busy, and they had little interest in travel. After doing business for so long, they found that they still got a thrill from watching items being sold in their store and turned into cash.
Money in hand.
Goods delivered.
Counting their own profits.
This was the passion they just couldn’t let go of.
Seeing Tang Qing,
naturally, there was another ’inspection’.
In the blink of an eye,
their own son had become the richest man inland.
They still felt like they were dreaming, as if their ancestors’ graves were spouting green smoke, almost as though the sky was awash with rosy clouds. Even the non-superstitious Father Tang thanked the Tang Family ancestors every night.
At the dinner table,
Mother Tang kept serving Tang Qing more food, muttering, "Tangtang, eat some more, here, Jiaxue, thanks for always looking after Tangtang." Mother Tang also picked some food for Lin Jiaxue with her chopsticks.
"It’s Tangtang who takes care of me," Lin Jiaxue hurriedly said.
Mother Tang sighed and smiled, "No matter who looks after whom, when you’re away from home, only your own kin can truly understand each other. Having you by his side, I’m at ease. Take good care of him."
"Mom, you make it sound like I’m always getting into trouble, but I’m very well-behaved, okay?" Tang Qing retorted.
"And the trouble you ’get into’ isn’t big enough?" Mother Tang glared at him, it’s known nationwide now.
"I retract my statement."
Tang Qing conceded.
As they were speaking,
Qin Shiqi also said with a giggle,
"Brother, I want to make lots and lots of money in the future, buy lots and lots of clothes. At school, I haven’t even told anyone you’re my brother. You have no idea how many people there worship you."
"You’re short on clothes now?" Tang Qing asked back.
Qin Shiqi paused, pondered thoughtfully for a second, and then had a sudden realization, "Seems like I really am... What to do, brother, I’ve lost my life goal, you owe me."
"...Is that all you aspire to?" Tang Qing teased.
Qin Shiqi shook her head, "Not just that, it looks like I need to find a new life goal. Sister, let’s find it together."
Qin Shiyu kept her head down and continued to eat,
ignoring her.
"Nian’er sister, what do you want to do in the future?" Qin Shiqi then turned her attention to Tang Nian’er sitting beside her.
Tang Nian’er saw that Qin Shiqi seemed quite serious.
"I think..."
That’s how it went.
Qin Shiqi began to discuss life goals with Tang Nian’er.
After dinner,
the whole family went up to the rooftop.
The night sky was nice this evening.
In the distance, the streetlights on Qingyan formed a snake of light, twinkling along the mountain road.
Lying back in the soft lounge chairs,
"Tangtang, now that your business has stepped onto a new platform, the situations you’ll face will be different. Every action you take will be in the spotlight, and you will encounter many people with ulterior motives."
Tang Kai said, looking out at the night view...
It wasn’t that he was being naggy, in the eyes of the elders, the younger ones are always children.
Tang Qing smiled and said, "All enemies are paper tigers."
"Don’t underestimate the world with that analogy," Tang Kai glanced at Tang Qing’s confident profile.
"I never underestimate them." At the same time, Tang Qing added in his mind: ’I simply have more cards in hand.’ He was the cheater, and as long as he wasn’t careless, it would be hard to lose.
As for being careless.
Heh.
Expecting the fighters to underestimate the enemy? That was wishful thinking—they would do everything possible to complete their task, aiming for their target in the most rigorous way. In such cases, Tang Qing’s decisions were almost never wrong.
Because even if they were,
the fighters would help right them.
"Good to know," Tang Kai didn’t linger on the topic.
At that moment.
Qin Shiqi bounced over excitedly.
"Bro, I suddenly came up with a goal, look, those Korean girl groups on TV are really good, we don’t have much of that in Huaxia. If we set one up, it will definitely be super popular."
Tang Qing: "..."
"Bro, don’t you think it’s a good idea?" Qin Shiqi stared intently at Tang Qing.
"Are you sure?" Tang Qing looked up.
"I’m asking for your opinion," Qin Shiqi pouted.
Tang Qing shook his head and said, "My opinion is, you won’t be able to persist."
"Don’t underestimate me," Qin Shiqi protested.
Pointing at the large TV not far away.
Tang Qing slowly said.
"Shiqi, it’s not that you can’t do it, but your personality isn’t suited for it. Can you imagine, singing and dancing around, doing commercial performances everywhere with the same content? If it’s for money, it’s easier to stick with it."
"But you have us, you probably won’t work for money in your life, can you stand singing and dancing to the same song every day? Can you endure learning new dance moves day and night without rest?"
After listening to Tang Qing’s words.
Qin Shiqi’s face fell immediately.
"Uh... how could this be."
She had just noticed the girl groups on TV looking popular and glamorous, but hadn’t thought about the troublesome process, making her repeat the same song over and over with her restless nature.
She got bored quickly.
Tang Qing smiled and said, "You see, behind the glamor is hardship and boredom. Without a strong dream to persist, it’ll just lead to everyone being unhappy in the end. A fleeting success is meaningless."
From a business perspective.
’Girl groups’ as a product, from the outset, must go through a complicated and strict processing to ensure their quality, and Huaxia companies don’t have that kind of ’craftsmanship’ like South Korea does.
That is, the trainee system.
It’s a barrier that requires artists to be trainees for many years.
Such a system, Tang Qing did not deny its effectiveness, as it could largely ensure the ’artists’ quality, not just relying on looks and some arm-waving to pass as dancing.
Through prolonged high-intensity training. 𝑛𝘰𝘷𝑝𝘶𝑏.𝑐𝘰𝘮
It could largely weed out those with weak wills, those acting on a whim, or those who treat it as a mere hobby.
After such training, considering how much they’ve invested, they wouldn’t give up easily in their subsequent work, wouldn’t immediately throw themselves at a tycoon who beckons them, leaving the group to get married.
Such people when cultivated.
Really make one sick.
And if Huaxia doesn’t form a similar training system to find those who truly pursue it as a dream, the establishment of girl groups really lacks cohesion—give them a shake, and they scatter.
Huaxia temporarily doesn’t have relevant large-scale management companies.
Of course.
Actually, in Tang Qing’s memory.
Huaxia’s girl groups have always been emerging with many outstanding ones, but without a full-fledged debut process and platform support, it’s hard to accomplish anything, and they end up going their separate ways.
Tang Qing had indeed thought about creating a Huaxia girl group that could go international.
But selecting members was troublesome.
It must be his own people. If it’s a group formed through talent shows, there’s no guarantee they wouldn’t disband upon formation. That would be just absurd. Even if he wanted to do it, he would have to plan carefully.
Qin Shiqi pursed her lips, "Bro, you just like to bring me down."
Tang Qing patted Qin Shiqi’s head, "Something you truly want to do needs time to be verified, it can’t just be thought up, you’re hoping to find a life goal in a few minutes?"
"Do you have any good methods?" Qin Shiqi asked.
Tang Qing thought for a moment.
"Actually, I’ve always liked the word ’mission.’ It transcends ideals and dreams, finding the value of one’s presence and reason for being. The method is simple, just:
Think about something that even if it doesn’t make money, even if the process is dull, even if it’s difficult, full of thorns, you’d still want to do it without hesitation. That’s your mission in life."
Qin Shiqi pondered.
"That’s very profound."
"Take it for what it’s worth, it’s up to you," Tang Qing said with a smile.
"Alright, I’ll go discuss it with sister Nian’er," Qin Shiqi ran off like a gust of wind.
"..."
Tang Qing was speechless.
Your life goal is to be discussed out?!!!
"Shiqi, that girl, always full of new ideas," Tang Kai laughed heartily.
Tang Qing helplessly shook his head, "It’s just not very reliable. If she insisted on it, I might have supported it."
"Haha..."
Tang Kai laughed again.
