The Rise of Otaku Chapter 145 - The Faction Conflict

Chapter 145 The Faction Conflict

The ice prince was becoming more and more… pretty. And it was the alluring kind of pretty. If he put on the gender-neutral clothes, those, who did not know him, would definitely mistake him as a beautiful girl. And what made Zhou Yu even more speechless was that, although Bai Mo did not have the hobby of putting on female dresses, he liked to put one some head ornaments. Normally, an ordinary ornament would make him even more feminine. He could even compete with little Muli.

But describing Bai Mo a sissy was not appropriate, because his behavior was like a typical naughty boy. The only problem was that pretty face and the smooth silky long hair, it would make people wonder, that if he put on the women’s dress, how many young men’s hearts would be deceived by him.

Imaging Bai Mo acting coquettishly in his mind, Zhou Yu could not help but shiver a little. ‘Fortunately, my son can’t be that cute, the ice prince’s cold and aloof attributes must be maintained.’

In addition to pranks, Bai Mo would occasionally go to the idol training center to practice, but it was very obvious, that he didn’t take it seriously. With less practice time than little Muli, Zhou Yu was very concerned about his attributes when he became mature.

However, Zhou Yu could not force him, otherwise, his mood would directly change from calm into a blizzard, the ice prince, who unleashed his maximum coldness, would directly freeze the teachers of the training center into to popsicles.

Alas, he was truly a problematic child.

Since he couldn’t force him, he could only adopt a laissez-faire style of teaching methods. Anyway, no matter how bad the attributes he would have, it would not be as bad as little Niannian. It would not be a problem for him to find a job, although, his achievement may not be very high in the future.

Just when he was worried about Bai Mo’s future, unexpectedly, a person from the fallen city showed up at his doorstep. This time, it was not the cloaked man, but a creepy looking guy from a management company in the fallen city.

Upon meeting him, he was inordinately nice to him. Bowing and saluting, he even then directly gave him a gift – the wings of darkness, adding 10 points to a fallen idol’s appearance.

Good stuff! Zhou Yu laughed and accepted the gift, and then asked the purpose of the guy’s visit.

“Well, I want to sign an agreement with Mr. Zhou. Our company wants to sign up Bai Mo directly. No matter what attributes he will reveal, he will receive the benefits of a B-rated fallen idol from our company for three years. After three years, under the same conditions, our company Tokyo Heat has the priority to renew the contract, what do you think?”

“Pff….” Upon hearing the name of the company, Zhou Yu, who was drinking water, immediately spat water from his mouth.

Holy s.h.i.t. That’s a familiar name.

This kind of gambling agreement was very popular in the fallen city. If they won the bet, they could use a lower price to sign up a talented idol, who had high attributes, if they lost, they just needed to pay them for three years. The people from the fallen city were truly depraved. Because of their gambling addiction, they even came to Luhua village, this remote village to gamble.

Generally speaking, offering the C-rated idol’s benefits were already very high. After all, this type of agreement was very risky, and it was not very easy to get a good idol. The reason why it was raised to the B-rated offer, was mainly because of little Muli. Since Luhua village was already able to produce an idol, like little Muli, of course, they would need to reevaluate Luhua village.

The creepy agent looked like someone, who had lost their minds in gambling. The way he looked at Bai Mo pa.s.sionately, made Zhou Yu dislike him a lot. But for the sake of Bai Mo’s future, he inquired carefully about the main works of Tokyo Heat.

The reason why he asked this was not, that he really wanted Bai Mo to go work for the fallen city, but want to know what kind of works, that the fallen city was producing. He would definitely not allow Bai Mo to partic.i.p.ate in obscene works. But if it was a dark, gore and violent kind of works, it was not impossible to negotiate. Like Beidou studio in Star Light city, Zhou Yu also needed a partner in the fallen city, after all, the facilities in the village were not perfect, he could not produce work alone.

“Caribbeam series, Tokyo-heat series, Natural Hi series, and uncensored series…”

“Stop, stop, get out, get out…”

The agent was just talking about the glorious history of his company, but he was suddenly violently interrupted by Zhou Yu and eventually kicked out from his home, he did not even know what exactly he had done, that had offended Mr. Zhou.

‘G.o.dd.a.m.nit, are there no other management companies in the fallen city?’

In the next few days, there were several other management companies came to Luhua village, all their purposes were the same as the first one. The highest one even gave out an a-rated benefit offer, which was a very good condition, but all of them were rejected by Zhou Yu resolutely.

There was no need to ask Bai Mo, lest he would make a foolish decision and want to seek his future career in the fallen city.

Finally, after a week of fostering period, no more management companies from the fallen city came to his house. And the attributes of Bai Mo was as ordinary as he had expected.

Bai Mo – fallen city idol,

Appearance 96;

Singing 24;

Dance 30;

Acting 87;

Variety 50.

Skill 1: composer, has the ability to compose music, can be further developed.

Skill 2: Unique Elegance, no matter which characters he is acting, male or female, it will increase the charm of the role.

Weakness: born with albinism, has no resistance to the sun, can only play the cold and aloof roles.

From the five attributes values, Bai Mo was a pure actor. His appearance and acting were first-cla.s.s. But unfortunately, because of his character, his acting roles were relatively limited. Unlike little Muli, who had Acting Queen skill, which could allow her to act any roles freely.

The ability of the composer was endowed by the soil. Three seeds were planted in the soil of the composer. In the end, only one acquired this skill. Another skill was used for acting. From this skill, Zhou Yu could tell that Bai Mo was destined to be popular amongst both male audiences and females audiences.

With two skills, Bai Mo had the actor and the composer two career paths in the future, which made his future very bright.

However, just when Zhou Yu thought this way, reality gave him a fatal blow.

Previously, he had a discussion with Xia Huan about working with Beidou on the next animated film. The main goal was to add an underground palace to the amus.e.m.e.nt park, so he would be able to see the world below Mini Luhua village.

At present, Xia Huan was still trying to find a good script. But since the village had a new actor, and it was a very good kind of actor, naturally, he wanted to discuss with Xia Huan about what kind of roles were suitable for Bai Mo in the next film.

At first, Xia Huan was very happy, because it was really difficult to find actors who scored above 80 points in acting. He really envied Zhou Yu, who had two actors with such high attributes.

However, when Xia Huan arrived at Lu Hua village excitedly and saw Bai Mo, his face immediately dropped, “a fallen idol?”

It was no wonder that Xia Huan was surprised, because he belonged to Star Light city, and the fallen city was his opponent, they never cooperated before.

After all, Zhou Yu was not from the ACG world, so although he knew that Star Light city and the fallen city were two opposing factions, he didn’t expect that it would be a problem for them to work on a movie together.

However, there really were problems.

The people of Luhua village may be able to accept a fallen idol, but all the idols, who registered in Star Light city, were extremely against working with fallen idols. It was absolutely impossible for them to cooperate. Not only that, but the ordinary people in Star Light city also would not accept them. The film, that was produced by the cooperation of the two sides, would cause big problems in the ACG world. It would even lead to civil unrest.

After thinking it over, Xia Huan decided to make it clear to Zhou Yu, “older Zhou, we can cooperate, but Bai Mo cannot partic.i.p.ate in the film. It’s not that Bai Mo is bad, but the problem between factions cannot be solved, and I’m sure that no one in Star Light city will dare touch this bottom line. Bai Mo has only two choices in the future, one is to go to the fallen city, the other is to partic.i.p.ate in the films that are produced by Luhua village.”

Well, it seemed, that it was a conflict that could never be solved.
