A few days later, the music festival was held at one of the top universities in the nation.
As a famous singer was to perform, the festival was very popular.
Not only students, but also people from the public would be squeezing into the 5000-people-capacity gymnasium.
The famous singer only had two songs and would be leaving right after her performance, so she didn’t care that there were newcomers trying to leech off her popularity.
In order to perform while the audience was most focused, Lisa arranged for her artists to perform right before the famous singer.
This was the best way to ensure the highest number of viewers.
Lisa was pleased with her arrangements. After Xia Hanmo died and Emma left, Superstar Media had become too weak to put up a fight. To revive it, was not an easy task to achieve. After all, so many big stars wanted to join Superstar Media in the past to become an artist under Emma.
But, now…?
After a week of training, S.A.J. was well prepared. But, when they heard the cheers and screams from the stage, they were still nervous.
After all, this was not some kind of graduation ceremony with a few hundred people – it was a music festival with a few thousand people.
“You don’t need to be nervous. I applied p**ssure to you guys before so you wouldn’t waste time. But now, it’s already too late to turn back. So, relax and give your all. As long as you do your best, even if the results aren’t great, I won’t blame you,” Lisa comforted.
“But, of course, I do hope that I receive calls tomorrow with job opportunities for all of you.”
The group members controlled their breathing as they let go of their burdens…
“Go go! Good luck! It’s almost your turn!”
Lisa put all her hope on these four people…She assumed the results wouldn’t be too bad. But, don’t forget, Han Xiuche was lurking in the shadows.
He had led Lisa one step at a time into his trap and was waiting for the right moment to pull the trigger.
Obviously, this was not the time to destroy Lisa yet. At least, he wanted to let her enjoy the success of her hard work for a little bit. Otherwise, he would be too cruel, right?
Faced with such a huge platform, Lisa waited patiently in the backstage.
Although S.A.J. were newcomers, they were young, hip and good looking. Plus, they could pull off extremely cool and difficult dance moves…
So, underneath the stage lights, the group successfully created a small wave of hype. Even though the audience didn’t necessarily know who they were, they knew they were cool and had a lot of character…
For Lisa, attracting attention was already halfway to success…
These four members were indeed talented…
However, Lisa would not be feeling this way for long.
As they stepped off the music festival stage, the group of four were out of breath. But from the happy look on their faces, it was clear to see that tonight would be the start to their path of stardom.
Lisa knew exactly how saturated the singing industry was. Since there were so many singing competitions and singers of all different levels, it was hard for the audience to process them all. If one did not have something unique to offer and wanted to advance simply based on singing skills, it was much too difficult.
So, Lisa specifically hired a dance instructor from South Korea to help make up for the lack of dancing skills.
As a result, after the music festival was finished, Lisa managed to open the doors to a variety of resources and finally breathed a sigh of relief. She then applied a stricter training regime to the group.
When Emma was still around, Superstar Media was a professional agency that specialized in rediscovering forgotten artists. Now that Emma was gone, Lisa planned to turn Superstar Media into a breeding ground for newcomers; a place where young groups could be fostered. Superstar Media was about to be known for being ‘Young and Stylish’.
After seeing the results produced by Lisa, Han Xiuche’s manager sighed. The people at Superstar Media were indeed capable. Although Lisa didn’t have as many ideas and methods as Emma, she was still very imp**ssive.
As the manager knew that Han Xiuche was the one that introduced S.A.J. to Superstar Media, she was happy to see them succeed.
“You know, apart from drawing manhua, you could go be a talent scout!”
As Han Xiuche stood in front of his drawing tablet and heard his manager’s words of praise, he sneered.
“I didn’t introduce these four to Superstar Media because I want them to be famous…Did you think that I would that nice?”
“Can’t you do something good for once?” the manager turned and glared at Han Xiuche.
“No I can’t!”
Actually, the manager knew exactly what Han Xiuche was thinking. On the surface, he said that he hated Emma, but in reality, he simply wanted to lure Emma out so he could witness her response. He was interested by her, but he was too stubborn to admit it. Plus, he had never learned proper social interaction.
“Even if Emma provoked you, it’s her bad luck. But, what about Lisa? Lisa placed so much trust in you, why must you hurt her?”
“Do you know why a psychopathic killer kills?” Han Xiuche asked as he put down his pen.
“Why?”
“Because he enjoys it…Lisa means nothing to me, so why should I care about her feelings?”
There were some people in this world who did things for no apparent reason.
Some people couldn’t differentiate bet**en good and bad; they simply did what they enjoyed.
Han Xiuche was dumbfounded as she stood up angrily, “I’m not going to bother with you anymore. You can do whatever you want!”
Han Xiuche was proud and arrogant because no one could do anything about him. He could do whatever he wanted.
What was the entertainment industry? It was a place to eat, drink and play. At least, that’s what Han Xiuche saw it as.
Was he really waiting to see Emma’s response?
Emma was just a woman with a mask, why would he be obsessed with her? Everything he did was simply so he could see Emma in pain?
…
Meanwhile, in the US, the filming for Jones’ film, ‘The Resurrected Specimen’, was nearing its final stages. There were only 2-3 months left before the remainder of the film was to be handed over to post production. This was thanks to the capabilities of American special effects; something Emma couldn’t easily learn.
During the final stages of filming, Jones was worried that Emma wouldn’t understand what was going on, so he began to explain things in more detail. This was exactly what Emma had hoped for. Previously, in England, she felt as though her classes were just a waste of time. No matter how many films she watched and how much theory she studied, it was nothing compared to Jones’ experience.
“We haven’t had much time together, but everything I’ve taught you is based on useful experience and filming techniques I’ve used.”
“Emma, filming is an art. An art where exp**ssing your own style is a difficult thing to do. This is something you may need to spend a lifetime to discover…”
“From today onwards, you will need to experiment with this on your own…”
“I know you are currently working on a film. I’ve seen the proposal written by you and the late director…I’m looking forward to seeing the finished product.”
Jones did not have any opinion towards Emma’s film because he knew Qiao Sen’sstory.
Even though Emma had learned so much, she did not change the main plot of her film because she wanted to cherish the hard work of the deceased director. This was the reason why Jones was willing to teach Emma: she was loyal and righteous.
“I’m also aware that your husband participated in this film.”
“I have reason to believe that a film that consists of so many people’s combined efforts, can’t possibly turn out bad. You need to believe in yourself.”
Emma felt a little emotional. After all, as ‘The Father of Sci-fi’, Jones had already done and taught all he could.
Their time together may have been short, but this was their fate.
She couldn’t possibly treat the set like a school and Jones like a professor and expect him to systematically teach her everything.
On the last day of filming, Jones got drunk because he knew he’d be announcing his retirement after this last film.
At the same time, Emma already began to miss this generous old man, “I hope, in future, I can still visit you.”
