《Rebirth of the Entertainment Giant》Cheers

In the warehouse, Zhang Xiaohua looked around and saw thousands of boxes in order.
Zhang Xiaohua didn't need to ask as he knew that those boxes contained copies of Wang Jingwen's album.
However, this so-called warehouse seemed worn down, as if close to collapsing. Its four walls had both large and small cracks and the paint on them had already faded so much that they couldn't imagine what the original colour was. The roof was made of a plastic shell casing and it didn't look like it could bear any weight at all, there were even holes in some areas. Fortunately, the weather had been good recently, because if heavy rain came down, all the goods inside would likely end up soaked.
"There are a total of 3,000 boxes, each containing 100 records, which totals to exactly 300,000." As he said so, Zhou Yi casually opened a box and took out the CD packet within, handing it to Zhang Xiaohua. "Please check it, Boss Zhang, if you want, I can ask people to open all these goods and let boss check them."
Zhang Xiaohua looked at the disc and CD casing, well, the paint on the cover was good, the colour was mild, the surface of the disc was smooth and flawless, no trace of scratches and the hardware's quality could be identified by touch. It was qualified.
Calling Emma forward, Zhang Xiaohua gave the record to her: "Let's play it and see."
Emma opened the laptop computer, put the disc into the CD-ROM drive, opening the video player, they saw it:
As the [HuaXiang] logo slowly flew out of the left side, the word [Records] appeared from the right side. When the two met in the middle of the screen, they became "HuaXiang Records", and then slowly floated to the upper right corner of the screen. The seven colours of light continued to flash, not only conspicuously, but also beautifully.

Soon, the screen gradually changed to a light blue colour followed by a close-up photo of Wang Jingwen, with the album name "Hearts Emotions" appearing on the bottom, heightening the already intense atmosphere.
Five seconds later, as the screen slowly turned black, they looked at the row of familiar white characters displayed on the screen, Yuan Datong and Emma screamed with excitement and joy, finally seeing their names appear on the screen, this was every musician's dream!

Finishing the prologue, the wonderful music sounded slowly, and after switching several opening shots, Wang Jingwen appeared on the screen. The images were delicate and played smoothly. There was not the slightest error. It sounded phenomenal.
As all the seven songs played, Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help but nod and praise. Even though the quality couldn't match the skills of those big companies, it was a great standard for an independent one.
"Very good!" Zhang Xiaohua was pleased to look at Zhou Yi, decisively commanding: "As soon as possible, send these to various sales outlets, within three days start selling them."
Zhou Yi was surprised by Zhang Xiaohua, thinking that he came on such a long trip, and only bothered to check one CD. This was too arbitrary, too bold!
Was he not afraid of being scammed?
According to the established agreement, once Zhang Xiaohua confirmed the shipment, he would owe a large sum of money to the Sparrow Records. Regardless of the quality of the records, and regardless of the sales volume, Zhang Xiaohua would have to pay to Sparrow.
"No, I believe in your company." Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile, then he also asked about Yuan Datong and co for their views, obtaining a consensus.

Looking at Zhang Xiaohua and Yuan Datong with their confident eyes, Zhou Yi felt touched!
Since the other person believed in him, all that was left was to send the records to the stores!
In the next moment, Zhang Xiaohua signed the authorisation on behalf of the company. Afterwards, Zhou Yi pulled out his phone and made several calls to order several large trucks. The employees carefully loaded the goods into the trucks after they arrived. According to Zhang Xiaohua's request, the entire stock was to be shipped to the specified stores for sale.
Zhang Xiaohua believed that with Wang Jingwen's popularity, those audio-video store owners would certainly not reject her records, instead, they would likely fear running out of goods.
In addition, although the unitary price of the records was set to 50 yuan per piece, the owners of those audio-video shops were not fools. According to Zhang Xiaohua's guess, they would adjust the prices to at least 55 yuan per piece. In fact, this was understandable, after all, people have to make money, they wouldn't help someone sell for nothing. It would be a win-win situation.
Busying themselves until two in the afternoon, they finally loaded all the albums. Afterwards, Zhou Yi equipped each car with a salesperson and sent them straight to each store front.
According to the agreement, as long as the sales of records exceed 100,000, both parties must pay in one transaction. Zhou Yi was not very worried about this, he believed that with Zhang Xiaohua's strategy, coupled with Wang Jingwen's ultra-high popularity, sales should be no problem.
At this point, Zhou Yi, who had finished his part, felt his body and mind become relaxed:
"It's been hard work, would you like to come in for a meal."
Zhang Xiaohua looked at the time and asked: "Could you first take me to visit the workshop? I would like to know more about your company. Of course, we will continue to cooperate for a long time, so I'd like know more about your company's situation. So when we cooperate with each other again next time, I can customise a suitable production plan according to your company's situation."
Zhou Yi did not really need to think, he said frankly: "Boss is so kind, and the production workshop is just opposite here. Please come with me."
In a short time, they reached the workshop.
After Zhou Yi's careful introduction, Zhang Xiaohua had a new impression on this humble small company.
However, although it was obvious that the various hardware devices here were more than a dozen years old, they could still produce enough records in such a short time, and also guarantee the quality of the product at the same time. He had to say that the company really was determined.
In other words, if brand new, advanced equipment was added to this company, coupled with the professionalism of its employees, the company's output would surely be staggeringly high. In terms of product quality, they might even be able to surpass some of the products made by those large companies.
Inadvertently, Zhang Xiaohua already had a plan in mind.
He firmly believed that in the near future, under his own spur, Sparrow Records would completely change its face and become a truly large-scale company. At that time, this company would be the engine powering [HuaXiang Entertainment], and with the two combined, it would be the birth of a music empire!

The Kodoku Game
In Japanese folklore, there once existed an ancient technique among alchemists for harvesting the strongest poison known to man. A poison so vicious, so horrendous, that a single drop could incapacitate an entire nation of humans, several times over. A poison so intense that a single drop could turn the tides of a war on its head. As potent as it appeared however, this poison could be harvested from the blood of a single insect alone- an insect the alchemist’s called the ‘Kodoku’. As lucrative as was attaining this poison however, the problem lied in identifying this insect- its appearance, shape and size changed from region to region and from continent to continent. Sometimes it took the appearance of a ladybug and other times a horned-beetle. In order to determine the identity of this special insect the alchemists came up with an ingenious method. They created an impregnable jar of clay out of the best sandstone they could find and placed hundreds of different insects into the same jar. The jar was made with such great mastery that it allowed no insects to escape and allowed no objects to enter. The laws of nature dictated that the insects would remain together in the jar forever. However, it turned out that as time went on, the insects’ hunger for food and power caused them to turn against each other- one insect ate another until only one remained. This sole insect contained a poison that far surpassed that of all the others and became stronger as it ate more and more insects. The alchemists at this point had succeeded in identifying the Kodoku and could extract it’s poison as long as they continued to feed it regularly. Although this folklore ends here, the actual story does not. One day, as the alchemists cheered in joy of having identified the Kodoku they so eagerly wanted, they forgot to close the lid on the very jar that was considered to be completely impregnable. This small gap was just large enough for the Kodoku inside to crawl out. Famished from not having been fed for weeks, the Kodoku ended up eating the very alchemists that nourished its growth until not even the bones remained. Yet, the Kodoku’s hunger didn’t seem to subside in the slightest. So it traveled to the next village and began eating whatever it could find there. Its poison made it unparalleled in strength and slowly but surely it began to dwindle down the population of the entire city. Yet its hunger only continued to grow. So it traveled to the next city over and ate all it could there. Very soon, the Kodoku couldn’t find any more food to eat. There was no one left to eat and no one left to spectate. So it stood there, by itself pondering what possibly was left to eat that could satiate its hunger. But there was one thing left that Kodoku realized it had never eaten. Itself.

Cheaters Always Win
Chester Everheart knew that life wasn't fair. Some were born in situations where it was almost impossible to succeed, whereas others were born with a silver spoon with everything at their disposal. A scant few were dropped into another world, filled with monsters and magic and forced to fend for themselves. The latter was a rare, somewhat ridiculous trope; but it happened to him anyway. Despite this he followed a motto that applied regardless of the dimension he was in. Playing fair is for suckers, and cheaters always win. Cheaters Always Win is a comedy-adventure that I've had churning in my head for a couple years now. I'd like to think it still has the charm that most LitRPGs have while also being unique in its own way. Every arc of the story will subsequently have a 'Level Complete' chapter that details all the stats, levels, equipment, etc. gained by the main cast of characters. Release Schedule: MONDAY/FRIDAY 12:30PM EST Cover Art by @staticobra on Instagram ★
