In the following days, Mu Wan was busy organizing the band. After a full week of auditions, the Jian Jia Orchestra was finally established, with 30 members in total. It included all the necessary sections of a symphony orchestra: strings, brass, woodwinds, percussion, and color instruments. Shortly after the orchestra was formed, Mu Wan officially started selling tickets for the concert on Damai. She opened an additional door outside the music hall on the second floor of the commercial building and built a spiral staircase on the exterior wall. This way, the audience could access the hall directly without disrupting the internal operations of Jian Jia.

“Boss, this is the theme the orchestra submitted. Could you take a look and see if it’s suitable?”

Since the concert couldn’t feature the same program every day, Mu Wan had asked the principal musicians from each section of the orchestra to discuss and decide on the pieces to be played. After reviewing, Mu Wan noticed they had settled on three main themes. The largest proportion was for classical music. On weekdays, they would perform 135 foreign pieces and 24 domestic pieces. The reason for fewer domestic pieces was that the development of symphonic music in the country was not as advanced as abroad, and there were fewer pieces to choose from. As for Saturday and Sunday, there would be more variety. On Saturday, they planned to perform OSTs from various films and TV shows, focusing on those the audience was familiar with, to boost attendance. On Sunday, they aimed to cater to the anime crowd, featuring iconic tracks like “Bird’s Poem,” “Blue Bird,” and “Dream Return,” all popular songs in the anime world.

Mu Wan: “They know that for commercial performances, they need to buy the copyright, right?”

The assistant nodded: “Yes, so along with the theme, they submitted the list of pieces, asking if you’d be willing to purchase the rights.”

Mu Wan: “…Buy them!”

After all, she was a good boss who spoiled her employees. Moreover, the classical music market in the country was not thriving, so taking a different approach might yield unexpected results.

Once the assistant relayed the message to the orchestra, everyone was thrilled and jumped up in excitement. They were so happy that, given their boss’s wealth, they were more determined to stay with Jian Jia forever. Long live the boss!

Thanks to Jian Jia’s current popularity, as soon as the concert tickets were released, fans snatched them up quickly, and the venue was soon filled.

Finally, the day of the concert arrived. A group of employees, including Mu Wan, sneaked behind the glass doors at the back of the music hall to watch. As the audience entered and settled in, the hall quickly filled up. The dazzling lights shone down, and the orchestra played on stage, causing countless people to look on with envy. They too wanted to perform on stage, they too wanted to join the orchestra.

Jian Jia Orchestra’s first concert was a resounding success. However, because classical music is more niche, not everyone could accept it, and gradually two types of opinions began to emerge online:

“So impressive! This is the best concert I’ve ever heard, it rivals the top orchestra in the country in terms of auditory experience!”
“I agree, the performance level of Jian Jia is really high!”
“I went to the concert, but I found it a bit boring… I couldn’t understand it, and there were no lyrics. I spent the second half of the show playing on my phone. If my girlfriend hadn’t insisted, I would have left halfway.”
“Same here. Although I really like Wan wan, I just can’t appreciate this kind of refined art.”
“Ladies!!! You’re going to Saturday and Sunday shows, right? Didn’t you see the playlist? As a drama and senior anime fan, I’m so excited!”
“I understand, I just wanted to grab tickets to broaden my horizons, but when I heard my favorite anime OSTs played in pure music form, I got totally hyped up.”
“What? Why didn’t I hear about this? I’m also a senior anime fan.”

Jian Jia’s social media team, seeing the comments, quickly posted the concert’s playlist online, and people soon realized:

“I thought the pieces were the same every day…”
“Me too…”
“Ah, as a music student, I’m so happy to know the pieces on Monday and Friday are different! I’m going to see every show next week!”
“I love O Rou, her violin has such a soft yet strong feeling. I’m obsessed with her.”
“Our teacher recommended that we come see Jian Jia’s concert.”
“Bird’s Poem, Bird’s Poem, Bird’s Poem, it’s the best!!”

Some fans even began planning to visit Jian Jia in S City:

“Ah, I’m so tempted, but I’m not in S City, such a shame.”
“Hehe, I’ll be in S City next month, and I’m definitely going to check out Jian Jia Orchestra!”

Gradually, Jian Jia’s concert became a popular spot for fans to check in. With more and more feedback on various platforms, the orchestra’s fame continued to grow.

Mu Wan thought to herself: I’m so happy! It’s been tough, but the feeling of seeing this business thrive is truly rewarding.

However, there were also some negative comments emerging online:

“What? There are actually fans of Mu Wan, this music industry parasite? Have people forgotten how she used her family’s influence to drive someone to suicide?”
“Who’s this cat who suddenly popped up? It’s so obvious they’re jealous that Wanwan’s so popular and are spreading rumors!”
“Everyone knows about that incident, right? The girl’s brother just got out of prison. We all know the real story, power is such a good thing.”

As someone reached the peak of their career, various dissonant voices emerged. These people considered themselves “awakened” and used different opinions to highlight their uniqueness.

“Look at the apartment Mu Wan lives in, and the company she has now. She’s obviously from a wealthy family.”
“Remember the suicide incident with the internet celebrity girlfriend? Mu Wan’s photo was banned shortly after it was posted. I believe she has some background in her family.”

There were also people who simply wanted to see the “high and mighty” fall from grace. As more unfavorable details about Mu Wan were exposed, the public’s opinion reached a peak with the revelation of Mu Jianhua’s identity.
