Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 118

But that "what if" was almost an impossibility.

Now, however, they were forced to take this extremely unlikely possibility seriously.

Because Solflare Entertainment already had three songs in the top three of the charts, and their composer, Lune, was a prodigy.

They prepared for two outcomes:

If Solflare Entertainment succeeded, they would immediately follow suit.

After all, this was an untapped market with promising prospects and enormous potential. Every single song download was cold, hard cash.

Popular songs could easily get millions, even tens of millions of downloads. What about ten songs? A hundred?

It was a huge market, and no one would turn their back on money.

So, while they were waiting to laugh at that puny little Solflare Entertainment, they were also scouting for their own business opportunities.

Amidst widespread anticipation and under the watchful eyes of music fans, ten explosive hits from a past life—songs like "Cash for My Heart," "Neon Pulse," and "Little Firefly"—made their dazzling debut.

"Wow, they're live, they're live!"

"So good, so good! Just as expected from Solflare Entertainment, who hit the peak right from their debut. Their other three songs have been dominating the charts for ages."

They were played in karaoke bars, hotels, and even public squares in various cities, which served as a form of indirect promotion.

But along with the success, the paid model also brought a flood of negative reviews.

At that moment, the major record labels were also watching the comments under the songs.

This was especially true for the three top-tier record companies, who were the least happy to see the rise of Solflare Entertainment.

When they saw the negative comments in the backend, they shook their heads. It seemed paid music had failed after all.

It was a sign that the timing just wasn't right yet. Who knew who would try again in the future, and when?

And what gave that small company such audacity in the first place?

So many others had failed before them. Even they themselves had tried, but the results were poor, never meeting expectations and failing even to recoup costs.

Right now, the happiest person of all was Adrian…
