Meng Lianxin couldn't stand it any longer and hurried onto the high platform, holding up her skirt.
"Mr. Aaron, what do you mean?"
"Miss Meng, I'm just singing, what upset you?"
"I told you long ago, I'm Su Yang's girlfriend, you don't need to go to such lengths. As for your songs, even ten thousand of them can't compare to my boyfriend's!"
Meng Lianxin was very direct and blunt.
Aaron's face darkened, and his heart was filled with rage.
"Su Yang's songs are just hums, and they sound as bad as opera, utterly nonsensical!"
"Miss Meng, I spent a year writing this song. Everyone says it's good, why do you have a prejudice against me?"
After speaking, Aaron subtly made a gesture.
Below, some young people began to shout loudly.
"Yes, I also think Su Yang's songs are just average."
"Su Yang's lyrics have no cultural depth at all, they're just pieced together."
The crowd erupted in an uproar, and as someone started, others followed.
Meng Lianxin gritted her teeth in anger, "Aaron, what do you mean? Why are you bringing people to deliberately smear Su Yang?"
Aaron shrugged, "Miss Meng, this is just what they think themselves, they are not people I brought."
"Honestly, Su Yang's songs are indeed average, can't people even speak the truth?"
Just then, Su Yang arrived fashionably late.
Hearing the whispers around him, he remained unfazed.
As Su Yang walked onto the high platform, he used his clairvoyant eye on Aaron.
To his surprise.
Aaron had plagiarized other people's songs in order to gain fame at the opening ceremony of the Songhai branch.
He made minor modifications and claimed them as his own creations.
Su Yang took the microphone, "Hello everyone, I am Su Yang, the chairman of the Songhai branch."
"Those who did not receive an invitation, leave immediately!"
Aaron narrowed his eyes, "Su Yang, since you are the chairman, you should set an example. How will others think of you now, driving away guests?"
Su Yang smiled, "What do I care what others think? And you, you were clearly not invited, why are you here freeloading?"
Aaron's face darkened, and he stammered, unable to speak.
"Also, do you think others don't know that your song is plagiarized? You insist on taking credit for yourself, aren't you ashamed at all!"
Aaron's face turned pale, but quickly returned to normal.
"Su Yang, don't slander me, be careful I sue you for defamation!"
Su Yang, too lazy to argue, took out his phone and searched.
"Everyone, you can search for the English songs 'Winter's Deep Affection' and 'Full of Love'."
"You will find that the song Aaron just sang was plagiarized from these, with only a few lines changed."
The guests below took out their phones to search, and upon checking, they discovered that Aaron had indeed plagiarized.
These two songs were not well-known abroad, and few people in Longguo had heard of them.
Therefore, when they heard Aaron sing, they didn't think much of it.
"Plagiarism is shameful! We strongly demand that the so-called British musician Aaron leave immediately!"
"Yes, a musician with only a superficial appearance, we don't welcome you!"
"Get out of Longguo quickly and go back to your Britain to plagiarize!"
Hearing the shouts from below, Aaron knew that the situation was irreversible.
He turned to leave, but Su Yang said, "Are you going to leave just like that after maliciously disrupting my opening ceremony?"
"Su Yang, what do you want?"
"You can explain yourself to the security bureau!"
Su Yang waved his hand, and Lu Qi led his men to apprehend Aaron.
Aaron panicked, struggled a few times, and then grabbed Su Yang's hand, begging desperately.
"Young Master Su, I know I was wrong, please don't send me in..."
Although Aaron was not a Longguo national, he had heard that few people came out intact after entering the security bureau.
They were either driven mad and sent to a mental hospital, or suffered broken limbs, or in severe cases, their third leg was removed.
This was because the security bureau detained extremely heinous criminals, with whom there was no reasoning.
"Young Master Su, I shouldn't have plagiarized, I shouldn't have flirted with your girlfriend, and I shouldn't have slandered you... Please, I really don't want to go in..."
The thought of the security bureau environment made Aaron wet his pants, and the air was filled with a foul odor.
The people below covered their noses, their eyes filled with disgust.
Su Yang waved his hand, and Lu Qi and the others forcibly dragged Aaron away.
...
After this small interlude, no one dared to cause trouble.
Romantic music played in the venue, and many couples danced and drank.
At that time, where there were people, there were always thoughts of profit.
Most of the guests attending the opening ceremony were high-level executives from major departments in Songhai and representatives of large family companies.
They mingled with their wine glasses, looking for partners.
At this moment, a woman about twenty-four or twenty-five years old, with blonde hair and blue eyes, wearing a red dress, crossed her legs and swayed her hips as she walked towards Su Yang.
"Mr. Su, nice to meet you. I am Laura Armani, the head of Penguin Music Company."
"Penguin Music Company?"
Su Yang remembered this company and its manager, Huang Ming.
"What business do you have?"
"Mr. Su, I heard you haven't chosen your third partner company yet. I wonder if I can be selected?"
Amani smiled faintly, her baby-like skin was fair and tender, very lively and charming.
"Your company's threshold is too high, it's not something an amateur like me can easily join. So I think, let's forget about it!"
Su Yang smiled, bowed, and turned to greet other guests.
At this time, Manager Huang Ming walked over, "Chairman, I told you long ago that cooperating with Su Yang is impossible. This guy is like a stone in a latrine."
"Don't you have a saying in Longguo, 'Nothing is impossible in the world, only those who are determined!' If you can't do it, it doesn't mean I can't!"
Amani said, and slowly followed behind Su Yang.
Yang Mange and Meng Lianxin walked over, standing on either side of Su Yang, toasting with the guests.
"Young Master Su, today is the opening ceremony, shouldn't you, the chairman, show off your skills?"
"Yes, it's time for Young Master Su to release new songs!"
"Hahaha, that's a great suggestion, everyone didn't come here in vain today!"
The guests around them said, especially the music companies that had signed contracts with Su Yang.
The more new songs Su Yang released, the more money they made, and their fame also soared.
Li Qiuchan from Cool Music Company, holding a wine glass, approached Su Yang.
"Chairman Su, the playback volume of your two songs keeps increasing. When do you plan to release new songs?"
"Yes, Chairman Su, many young music enthusiasts are here now. How will you recruit new talent if you don't show off your skills?"
Hearing the guests say this, Meng Lianxin also worried that if she became the principal, the school wouldn't be able to attract students.
"Darling, just release one new song, and I'll reward you handsomely tonight."
