Chapter 598: Chapter 598: It’s Inevitable
"...the exact approach depends on the attitude of the newly appointed team manager, but an apology is inevitable."
The agent’s tone was quite diplomatic.
The online outcry was fierce, with the bulk of the vitriol being directed at Tiffany Lynch, with a loud chorus calling for her to leave the band.
This matter will not pass easily.
An apology statement is only the first step, as for the matter of leaving the band...
Since ’Shining Star Road’ spanned two years, the only difference being that the boy band from the first season signed a one-and-a-half-year contract, which is due to expire in more than half a year.
This incident did not have a major impact on them, and Ray Lee’s apology statement came swiftly, clearly released on behalf of the company.
However, a year has passed, and Hayes Edwards’s personal development has been good. Most of his fans are gratified that their beloved star has reclaimed his glory, so their reactions are not as intense.
But the situation with the girl band is a different story.
Only less than two months have passed since their formation, and the majority believe that disbanding now would be the greatest solace for those affected.
But because the management team of the girl band was being replaced, there was no news on the official twitter. So everyone targeted the members involved in vote rigging, demanding they leave and give their places to others.
Tiffany Lynch’s apology statement was the last to arrive, and it appeared formulaic like the others’, lacking sincerity, which intensified the public’s anger.
The scandal remained hot for several days.
Until this afternoon, when the new management team took over.
Two months after the formation, the girl band’s management rights were transferred to HQ Entertainment.
HQ Entertainment had a strong reputation overseas and can be counted as one of the origin companies for boy and girl bands, and they still manage two popular boy bands and a rising girl band.
Although they have only been developing in this country for two years, they have already trained their own trainees, and their artists were part of the boy band last year.
They had just not had the opportunity to fully manage a girl band, so they dared to take on this hot potato amidst the uproar.
As soon as they took office, the new manager immediately arranged for a meeting with everyone.
The new agent, Teresa Gordon, in her early forties, sat down without an expression. She was a decisive and strong woman, with a strong presence.
In fact, not only did she have a strong presence, but she also had strong capabilities. She had dared to venture abroad alone twenty years ago. She managed the popular boy band as a foreigner, even handling several major incidents, until this year when she was assigned by the HQ headquarters to manage affairs here.
This was her first girl band in this country.
She sat down, her gaze lingered on the faces of three people for a while before returning to her watch.
Hannah was the last to arrive.
She knocked on the door, unaffected by the somber atmosphere, "Sorry, I’m late."
Teresa Gordon looked seriously at Hannah at the door.
She had the most information on this member in her hand. Not for any reason, just because she was popular, valuable.
In her eyes, all artists were divided into two categories, valuable and not valuable, and the treatment would naturally differ.
Especially Hannah, whose face in person was even more pleasing than in photos and videos. She immediately changed to a smiling face, "Come in."
