Chapter 767 - Claire’s New Song?



Chapter 767: Claire’s New Song?

Luke didn’t pay much attention to the three girls’ training. He set up the training program through Little Snail, and had Butterfly supervise the training.

All he needed to do was check their progress from time to time, just like the leaders of big companies, and he had Butterfly do random spot checks of their learning progress.

In any case, the three girls’ superpowers were a little excessive to begin with.

They needed good and cautious mindsets; there was no need to increase their combat ability before they faced this complicated and dangerous world.

After a few days of training, Butterfly collected a lot of intelligence on the three girls. After analyzing it, Little Snail gave a more optimistic prediction: There was a seventy to eighty percent chance that the twins would be useful to him, and they were worth training.

There was only a thirty to forty percent chance that Stacy would accept someone else’s leadership.

Because of her ability, she was fickle and paranoid, and wasn’t as easy to fool as the twins.

Luke was quite interested in her ability. She was very suitable to be an elite agent in the intelligence system.

However, even if Stacy ran off in the end, Luke wouldn’t force her to stay.

Keeping the twins as a connection to Stacy in future collaborations, and treating her as an outside informant, also wasn’t a bad choice.

There were too many capable people in this world.

He wasn’t Hydra, and didn’t need to control all of them.

As long as he could build up his own strength and influence more people through various means, he would be satisfied with cooperation or temporary employment.

As for the side effects of Stacy’s ability, he could adjust them at the right time.

After all, Luke was a man with Basic Hypnosis and Mental Communication.

It wasn’t easy to completely resolve Stacy’s psychological issues, but it wasn’t hard to control them to a certain extent.

The chaos in Los Angeles had died down significantly.

The other “earthquake” caused by the Elsworths had nothing to do with the ordinary people.

Ordinary people didn’t really care about the news of the Elsworths’ crimes.

After all, if these families didn’t commit any crimes, it would be like celebrities who didn’t drink alcohol or take drugs – basically impossible.

The hottest news in recent days was still Batman, Iron Man, and the Angel of Judgment.

Next was… Sheerah.

Riding on Batman’s momentum, Sheerah became popular again.

After accepting Luke’s proposal, she found Jennifer Perry, who had also been saved by Batman, and they started a new round of promotion to pull people in for the charity show.

Under the banner of disaster relief, and thanks to the two women’s status in the music and film industry, they quickly persuaded more than a dozen first- and second-tier celebrities and singers to take part.

At that point, they were set.

With these dozen or so people joining them, they could easily pull in even more celebrities.

When the number of participants reached fifty, this participation turned into a symbol of status in the film and music industry.

From the very beginning, Sheerah and Jennifer had looked for famous celebrity singers.

Even if they weren’t as popular anymore, their names were still well-known.

As the number of participants increased, many stars began to deliver themselves to the door.

They didn’t want the public to think that they weren’t qualified enough to participate in this event.

Some of these celebrities were genuinely here for charity, but only they themselves knew if they were here just to follow the popularity trend or harbored ill intentions.

Whether it was for show or charity, however, the beneficiaries were the victims, so there was nothing to look down on.

Furthermore, the organizers had explicitly said that the participating celebrities had to take care of their own expenses during the charity performance and they wouldn’t be paid. The proceeds of the charity performance would be donated to the newly established California Earthquake Charity Fund to help the victims.

This clause would be released along with the announcement of the charity performance, so that everyone would know that the celebrities were paying their own way to do charity.

Yesterday, on August 5, the promotional video was finally released.

As the main content of the promotional video, a new song quickly replaced Sheerah’s hit single at the top of the charts.

The song “We Are the World” was performed by more than a hundred film stars and singers. It lasted more than seven minutes, and the music video was played on every TV station.

The music video was very simple and didn’t have any special effects. It was just clips of the celebrities singing in the studio.

However, the song had only just been released, and even Batman’s rumored girlfriend, Sheerah, couldn’t beat it. It went straight to the top of the charts.

A whole bunch of celebrity singers were in the music video, which attracted a lot of fans.

Some wanted to see the celebrities they liked, some wanted to see which stars were there, and some wanted to see how many lines each star sang.

That was right, this song could even cause a discussion about who sang which lyrics.

A lot of troublemakers found new delight in making strange comparisons like “The xxx I like sang two lines, and the xxx you like sang three lines.”

This then led to a wider discussion of who had a higher status and who was more professional at singing.

There were a lot of discussion topics and it was shockingly popular; this was the current situation with this new song, “We Are The World.”

Luke hadn’t paid much attention to it at first. After all, he was the one who had given Sheerah the song, and he was the one who had given her the idea; all of this was within his expectations.

But during dinner, Claire called Luke. “Luke, did you hear my new song?”

Luke: “What?”

“We Are the World. I sang some lines in it,” Claire reported excitedly.

Luke: “What?!”

A moment later, he hung up.

Selina asked curiously, “Did she really become a singer?”

Luke was conflicted. “I… don’t think so.”

Selina said, “Didn’t she say that she sang We Are the World? Aren’t all the singers in there celebrities?”

Luke said helplessly, “See for yourself. She said that she sang at five minutes and fifty-one seconds; she’s not even on camera for a second.”

Selina laughed and took out her tablet. “Let me see what it’s like when our big star is on camera for the first time.”

Two minutes later, she burst out laughing again. “Oh my god, it’s these two lines. Claire’s really there. She looks like a kindergarten kid.”

Luke said, “Let me see.”

Selina turned the tablet to him. He replayed the last few seconds before he finally saw Claire.

Unfortunately, she had inexplicably been placed between two tall celebrities who were clearly much older and were at least in their forties.

Claire’s tender face was even more eye-catching, like a child who had snuck into a group of parents.

However, in that fraction of a second, the camera focused on Claire, who was the shortest and smallest, so her first appearance was also in center position.

Luke played the video from the beginning with a smile. “Not bad. Look who’s next to her.”

Selina was surprised. “You know him?”
