In the context of the great economic depression, finding a powerful backer was a good way to get ahead.
Therefore, due to the strength of King Investment Group, many girls from various places came to sign up for the dance troupe, eventually turning into a grand "beauty pageant."
As more and more girls participated, Chris, overwhelmed, had no choice but to seek help from Jessie.
As the head of King Agency, Jessie primarily managed the artists, and she had stars like MJ and The Plastics under her.
In this situation, having her help select members for the dance troupe was a perfect fit.
With Jessie's involvement, the dance troupe's selection process officially got on track.
For a time, this special "beauty pageant," caused by Mike's whim, became a topic of conversation after meals as numerous beauties with diverse charms gathered.
It added a touch of color to the currently passive lives of the people.
…
More than half a month later, this grand "beauty pageant" finally concluded under the witness of the public and various media in New York.
Because of the large number of participants and their good quality, after layers of screening, the number of girls who ultimately made it into the official dance troupe still exceeded one hundred.
These more than one hundred beauties, each with different looks, undoubtedly became the luckiest individuals of the moment!!!
They also became the envy of other girls.
Mike himself never expected that he merely wanted to imitate God and quietly form a private dance troupe to enjoy himself, yet now he had caused such a huge stir.
To satisfy the media's curiosity and the public's desire for gossip, On this day, Mike held a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the establishment of Kings Dance Troupe in his King's Building.
Besides over a hundred beautiful women with charming figures and exquisite looks, many media friends and partners from King Investment Group also attended.
Of course, Mike's friends were also present: Chris, Mr. Lundy, MJ, and others all came to the scene.
Finally, Mike's confidantes were also indispensable.
Jessie, Lena, Carly, Collins, Caroline, The Plastics, and even Tina and Kate (the Titanic heroine) were also present.
These girls, some capable, some with a star aura, inadvertently looked at Mike with a hint of subtle resentment.
"On behalf of King Investment Group, I thank everyone for coming, and I thank everyone for their concern for Kings Dance Troupe…" After the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the dance troupe began, Mike walked to the front.
This ribbon-cutting event, promoted by Chris and Jessie, had become a means for King Investment Group to expand its visibility.
Mike naturally didn't mind cooperating.
Amidst a pile of meaningless pleasantries, the more than one hundred carefully selected beauties below were all vying to show their best side to the young and handsome boss.
Some of them needed this job with high wages and good benefits, some wanted to take a shortcut with Mike, and others wanted to use the dance troupe as a platform to join King Agency and become stars.
Of course, no matter what the girls thought at the moment, one thing could not be denied: they were young and beautiful enough.
It's not hard to imagine that, with the reporters' on-site coverage, these glamorous girls would appear on the front pages of major New York newspapers tomorrow, alongside King Investment Group, a conscientious enterprise.
Everyone had a bright future—
As Mike picked up the scissors and "snip" cut the ribbon in front of him, King Dance Troupe, this private dance troupe, was officially announced to be established.
Instantly, more than a hundred beautiful girls seized the opportunity of the crowd and swarmed forward, surrounding the handsome boss Mike with their enthusiasm.
The surrounding people who came to observe the ceremony also raised their champagne glasses and offered blessings.
Many of them also showed smiles that men understood.
Envy… wanting to take his place…
All sorts of expressions were present.
After Mike dealt with the many enthusiastic girls, his clothes and neck inevitably had many lipstick marks.
However, Mike still knew his priorities; after all, not everyone's emotional intelligence was as low as Johnny's.
After instructing the housekeeper to entertain the guests well, Mike followed the "sour smell" towards Jessie and the others.
"I think we need to talk…" Mike motioned for the girls to go upstairs to talk.
As the saying goes: with great power comes great responsibility.
Mike didn't deny his philandering, but he was also deeply affectionate.
Moreover, he had a clear understanding of who was his own and who would be a passerby.
"I'd like to see what you have to say." Jessie glared at Mike, then took the lead and walked upstairs.
With someone taking the lead, the other girls also passed by Mike one by one and went upstairs.
Kate, who was walking last, looked at the glamorous dance troupe girls in the hall, then looked at Jessie and the other girls ahead, and then smiled and walked upstairs.
As an actress, Kate was actually very similar to the girls in the hall.
However, she was obviously luckier; she met Mike earlier and successfully latched onto this powerful connection with her own advantages and star aura.
She became a "canary" envied by the dance troupe girls, truly a step ahead leading to many steps ahead.
As for Mike, he always believed that love shouldn't just be spoken, but shown through actions.
Mike: I'm going to fight ten!
Next, the most intense battle unfolded upstairs, with the "succubi" holding back their strength, each bringing out their "special skills."
Everywhere was a battlefield, and their whole bodies were weapons.
Fortunately, Mike was strong enough and tough enough, and he grew stronger with each battle.
Invincible…
It was on the path to the hearts of Jessie and the other girls that Mike promised them: they would always be his wings, never leaving his side.
Although the girls still wanted to maintain their composure, their strength did not allow it.
Repeatedly defeated, they ultimately failed to make Mike soften.
This man seemed to have no limits; he was handsome, spoke well, and most importantly, his combat power was so strong.
As women, what more could Jessie and the others ask for?
Finally, after Mike's efforts for most of the day, all the girls, including Jessie, were thoroughly satisfied, from body to soul.
…
Having proven himself, Mike then lingered with Jessie and the others for a while before leaving the room.
When he returned to the first-floor hall, many of the people who came to observe the ceremony had already left.
Only the dance troupe girls and a few of Mike's friends remained on site.
As the dance troupe girls gathered around again, Mike called the housekeeper to arrange accommodation for each of them.
King's Building, as an estate, naturally had annex buildings, which now served as dormitories for the dance troupe girls.
Of course, Mike didn't stop those who lived nearby and wanted to go home.
After the chattering, clearly over-excited girls gradually left, the hall finally quieted down.
And MJ, who had witnessed Mike going upstairs and then downstairs the entire time, now quietly came up to Mike and gave him a thumbs up.
"How are your new album sales doing recently?" Mike, not wanting to talk about his private life, casually picked up a steak, eating it while changing the subject and chatting with MJ.
Currently, MJ's new album had been released for over a month, and its sales had largely stabilized.
"Not bad, just a little short of five-platinum." Speaking of his new album, MJ was clearly in a good mood.
MJ had spent about two years preparing this album, which included anti-war and inspirational songs, pouring a lot of his heart into it.
He also placed a lot of hope in it.
It was just unfortunate that his new album first encountered market squeeze from The Plastics' new album, and then the economic depression broke out.
However, the King of Pop was still the King of Pop; even with many unfavorable factors, his release still reached a height unattainable by ordinary people.
Compared to The Plastics' new album, which sold one million copies only after more than two months, MJ's five-platinum sales in just over a month already lived up to his title as the King.
Of course, it's worth mentioning that The Plastics' "eternal love" new album, after time's fermentation, showed an increasingly strong sales momentum.
Its sales performance over the past month was actually better than MJ's new album, with the potential to hit diamond record sales.
During this time, the girls were sent to support MJ's new album, also with the intention of continuing to promote their own new album.
