BXBX NOVEL Chapter 337 New Stars
Inside his villa, after Jack had finally completed conversing with the virtual nightmare, finally shifted his attention from the laptop. After that, he summoned one of the 99. Although he had deployed almost all of them, he had made sure that 10 of them were always ready for deployment.
With just a thought, a lady who was adorned in a futuristic looking armor suddenly appeared in front of him. She had short black hair, red eyes and, a cold expression on her face.
This was the one that Jack had given the name number seven. With the telepathic connection that they shared, he easily transferred the information about what she was supposed to do.
"I will complete everything as soon as possible master." After she said those words, she dashed out of the room, then out of the villa before disappearing into the night.
Jack had decided to send her to go over and rescue virtual nightmare\'s son. He was sure that it was going to be a difficult task to have the virtual nightmare working for him, when Zigo was having his child as a leverage.
As for the matter of discussing on the compensation and so on, that was something that would be discussed in the later times.
With that finally out of the way, Jack finally began monitoring the progress that occurred during the past week.
The Rose Entertainment Company had already begun production. And, since he didn\'t lack money, he didn\'t need any kind of investments from other sources. And for that reason, the production was easily set to begin.
The number of singers that had agreed to sign the contract that he had offered previously was a total of 23. All of them, although they possessed incredible skills, they didn\'t have the support of the company previously.
That was the main reason as to why they had always been low level singers. The entertainment company wasn\'t something simple. And for that reason, since they didn\'t have the support of those that were at the upper levels of the company, then they were bound to have a very difficult time to get to the top.
But ever since Alex had taken over as the CEO of the company, things had changed completely. He completely ignored those that had previously risen to the top using the connections and other means, and focused on those that were really talented.
In case there was a star that misbehaved, then Alex wasn\'t lenient at all. Instead, he administered punishment to them.
With his support, numerous artists that would have been at the bottom began rising. And, these 23 had decided to take a gamble. Even though it was true that they could have risen to the top with the current support from the company, they decided to take a risk.
They were all people that wanted to reach the top. They didn\'t want to be amongst the majority, but just the unique few. For that reason, they had agreed to sign the contract.
And this was the main reason as to why they had agreed to the contract, although they thought that it was quite unfavorable towards them.
But, this idea was immediately dispelled, the moment that they received what was promised. The lyrics of the songs that had been written by Jack were so incredible that they couldn\'t believe that they were the ones that were supposed to sing them.
But after they were given the assurance that the songs that had been written belonged to them, then, they immediately began practicing.
Since they had already seen the benefits that came with signing the contract, they had decided that they were going to work even harder, to make sure that they didn\'t fail the company.
Their loyalty to the company had increased greatly. In case they found someone who was trash talking about the top management of the company, then, they were going to fight them with all their strength.
For that reason, during the past week, several classic songs were released one after the other. This has shocked the entire entertainment industry.
Nobody would have believed that something like that would have occurred. The number of songs that had been released, had greatly boosted the popularity of the Rose Entertainment Company.
Added to the fact that it was currently amongst the very top entertainment companies present in the country, the reputation had increased as well as the number of supporters.
Even though it was true that many people didn\'t know these new artists that were releasing the classic songs, to them, they didn\'t care as long as the songs that they were listening to were good.
For that reason, these artists that had always been at the bottom, suddenly gained a large number of fans. Their social media accounts gained followers in hundreds of thousands with each passing day.
Since all the songs that were being released by the 23 were promoted by The Rose Entertainment Company, they managed to reach a large number of audience.
With the sudden shoot in terms of popularity, those top stars that had refused to sign the contract suddenly felt regret.
Previously, when they saw the contract, they had thought that since they were already at the top, then what was the reason for binding themselves to the company? For that reason, they completely ignored the contract, and even some of them thought that this was just a ploy that had been orchestrated by the Rose Entertainment Company.
Had It not been for the fact that they knew that the new CEO Alex, was a very strict person and wasn\'t going to tolerate any person that didn\'t follow the company rules and policies, there would have definitely been some of them that would have posted to try and paint a bad image for the company.
But, with the fact that none of them was forced, and it was just a matter of choice, these people decided not to risk anything. So, they decided to sit and watch from the sides as other idiots agreed to sign the contract.
But now, when they saw the results, their hearts began wavering. Each and every one of them began thinking about signing the contract. Even though it was going to deny them the freedom of moving from company to company, and it was going to bind them to the rose entertainment company, some of them thought that it wasn\'t a bad deal.
For artists like them, popularity was always the key. With the top songs that were being released, they knew that if they got them, then their popularity would definitely reach a high level in the international music industry.
At this moment, they suddenly began feeling insecure about their position of the top artists of the company. After all, even though it was true that the support that they were receiving from the company had been Increased, the support that those 23 were receiving were far higher than theirs.
And in just a matter of a few days, even though it was true that they were still the top artists, the gap that previously existed between them had been narrowed. It was now going to be just a matter of time before the gap was completely eliminated.
With that thought in mind, they decided to go and look for Alex, to try and see if they could sign the contract. Since they had known that the contract was not just a plan that had been orchestrated by The Rose Entertainment Company, they were willing to sign the contract.
But, Alex refused to give them the contract. The contract was something that had been offered by Jack. He had decided that only those that agreed were going to be given the chance.
As for those who were going to act as fence sitters, that was just a group of people that Jack didn\'t like. For that reason, he didn\'t agree to having any other person that had previously refused to sign the contract to do so now.
After all, it was not just a matter of them being easily attracted by benefits, but, it was also a matter of the amount of workload that he would have to deal with.
If he was supposed to write songs for each and every artist present in the company, then, when was he going to take time to relax? For that reason, Jack refused.
When they received the negative response, these stars couldn\'t believe it. Some of them even threatened that they would shift to another company in case The Rose Entertainment Company wasn\'t going to give them the contract.
In response to this, Jack simply went ahead and told them that they could leave in case they wanted to. It was not as if he was begging them to stay. As long as they were capable of dealing with the consequences of breaking the contract, then he didn\'t have an issue.
To him, what really mattered was these 23 people that had agreed to sign the contract. Even if these top artists decided to leave the company, there would always be another group that was going to replace them soon. It was always just a matter of time.
Several advertisements, endorsements and other things came forward one after the other. These 23 became the new rising stars.
The number of sales of the songs that they had released had increased due to the influence of The Rose Entertainment Company. For that reason, the amount of income that the rose entertainment company was earning had a drastically shot up.
This attracted the envy of several other companies. And of course, they tried trying to poach these new rising stars. But of course, no matter what offers they offered, none of the 23 budged at all.
Not to mention that the offers that were being given to them were very low as compared to the ones that they were receiving from The Rose Entertainment Company, why would they agree to shift to another company even if the offer was better?
Were those companies going to provide them with classic songs? Were they going to support them fully? Having already experienced life in a company that was managed by the whims of people, they would definitely not agree to lose a chance that they have been given.
Of course, since all these stars didn\'t agree to that, these companies had decided to resort to other means to try and gain the means that the rose entertainment company had utilized to gain the big success.
