Chapter 335

“What a joke! Anyone here will tell you that their first choice would be to join Sky Media if they plan to

enter the entertainment industry! Tell me, which company do you think they will they pick if they have to

choose between TS and the prestigious Sky Media? How can a company that isn’t even operational yet

be compared to an industry icon? Has TS even made anyone famous yet? It’s just an insignificant

project of Sophie’s! There’s nothing amazing about that. As for Sky Media, they have elevated plenty of

people into celebrities. There are tons of first-class stars, bands, and idol groups in their company!”

“That’s right! Sophie may be an excellent student, but she’s incomparable to Mr. Zales in terms of

running a company! Everyone knows he’s an entertainment mogul in Jipsdale. There’s no one in this

world that he can’t make popular!”

“I think so, too! Besides, The Wheelers are way too ungrateful! Sky Media was the one who made them

famous, yet they wanted to break their contract with the company.”

“Sophie being capable of taking The Wheelers under her wing means she’s no different from them.

They may think they’re amazing, but they’ve truly offended Sky Media this time. I bet their new album

will flop hard!”

“That’s right! Sky Media’s new five-man idol group’s about to release its new album. You all ought to

know that each of the members has their own publicity and a lot of fans. There’s no way The Wheelers

can win against them!”

“So what? They’re just an idol group. That’s not impressive at all, considering they’re only relying on

their pretty faces to succeed.” Ysabelle couldn’t bear listening to those insults anymore because she

was The Wheelers’ die-hard fan.

Thus, she couldn’t allow anyone to speak ill of them.

“You know nothing!” the fans of the five-man idol group retorted.

“All right, that’s enough. Stop wasting your breath on these people,” Sophie interjected. I know The

Wheelers only want to focus on making music. The final result doesn’t interest me that much. Besides,

I believe in them.

“I’ll make you regret your words, Sophie! I’ll make sure that your decision not to sign a contract with me

will be your biggest loss!” Willow didn’t want to hold her emotions back anymore as she had been too

aggravated recently. This time, I will fight back!

With disdain shining in her eyes, Ysabelle spat, “Why are you so shameless, Willow? I think your

biggest failing is your inability to realize what you’re really capable of. How can a person like you

become famous?”

“Is that so? We’ll see about that!” With that, Willow left with her head held high and her sidekicks in tow.

Meanwhile, Sophie couldn’t be bothered to waste any more time on Willow.

“Say, do you think The Wheelers’ upcoming album will become popular?” Even though Ysabelle

seemed confident in the band earlier, she started worrying about them after she thought about the

situation.

After all, they all lived in a world where publicity determined everything. If each member of the five-man

idol group has their own following, then it may be difficult for The Wheelers to defeat them.

“Relax, just believe in them. They can pull through. We just need to sit back and let their music do the

talking,” Sophie replied.

In the following days, the five-man idol group had been doing things that put them on the trending list

every day.

When their fans learned they were about to release a new album, they cried about wanting to buy it.

As for The Wheelers, no one had heard anything from them. They simply focused on recording their

songs every day without bothering about what was going on in the outside world.

“How about we get the band on the trending list too with money, Sophie?” Ysabelle suggested.

They weren’t lacking in funds, and it was still important to create hype before the release of the album.

“We’ll talk about that again a few days later. They have been busy lately, so much so that they only

sleep for two or three hours a day. They’re tired enough. So there’s no need to bother them with these

trivial matters,” Sophie replied.

Ysabelle fell into deep thought. That’s true! Each member of The Wheelers has a particularly high

standard for their album’s quality. Even though some of their songs already sounded perfect, they still

wanted to rerecord them just to achieve a better effect. They’re really hardworking. I liked them in the

past because their songs are really good. Now that I get to spend time with them, I have learned just

how seriously they treat music. Being able to spend time with people like them really makes me happy.

Even though Sophie didn’t have much free time as the university entrance exam was nearing, she still

made time to visit The Wheelers.

Finally, the release day for The Wheelers’ new album had arrived.

After they uploaded the album to the internet, the song Crazy, which was written and composed by

Sophie, went viral. It instantly topped the major music charts despite the album having no promotion at

all.

As for the five-man idol group under Sky Media, even after the company had hyped the group’s album

days before the release, the results were still underwhelming compared to The Wheelers’ sales.

“What do we do, Mr. Zales? We’ve spent a ton of money on Freezewave’s album! Even though we

hired that stylist from Koandria and their theme song was composed by Mr. Valentine, the album still

lost to The Wheelers! What do we do now?” an assistant of Clayton informed.

Sky Media had poured pots of gold into the promotion of Freezewave’s album, yet the album still failed

to achieve its goal.

Naturally, Clayton was very displeased with the result. “What the hell are you all doing? Why is this the

result after so much money is spent?”

The assistant didn’t dare to utter a word in retort.

Then, they suggested, “How about this, Mr. Zales? We’ll do a channel-stuffing!” That was the only way

they could think of. No matter what, we can’t lose!

“Channel-stuffing?” Clayton hesitated.

However, when the image of The Wheelers acting smugly popped into his mind, he nodded.

“All right, do that then. Remember to be extremely careful with this. If anything goes wrong, you’re

fired.” Frustration was evident in his voice.

The assistant then left to complete their task.

Sitting in the office alone, Clayton threw the folder beside his hand to the ground. What is going on

lately? It feels like ever since I crossed Phantom’s path, my life has become tumultuous. The company

keeps having issues, and even my most profitable asset, Sky Media, has become like this. I refuse to

believe that all of this has nothing to do with Phantom.

“I just wanted you to join me, Phantom! Is it really necessary for you to mess with me like this? Once I

capture you, I’ll make sure you suffer greatly!” Initially, Clayton had planned to get Phantom to work for

him.

However, now that things had come to this, all he wanted was to tear Phantom into pieces. I have

spent a lot of money to hire the best detective around. So, no matter what, I’ll make sure Phantom is

brought to light this time!

Sophie was in Tristan’s office when the result came out. Naturally, she was happy to see how well the

album was doing. I knew it. Regardless of the circumstances, good music will never always triumph

Seeing how happy she was, Tristan pulled her into his embrace. He was jealous
