My wife is in my arms

Chapter 524 Is that you...? Heavenly King One
After giving Xu Wei a few pointers, Zhang You stopped paying attention to him.

As for a direct attack... Zhang Youcai wouldn't do such a thing! Having lived two lives, he already understands the principle that fortunes change. Don't be fooled by Xu Wei's current role as his assistant; he might just become the mastermind behind the stitching of fortunes in the future.

At that time... even if he doesn't necessarily need his help, it's better to say a few good words about him than to start showing resentment every time he's mentioned.

He sat back down in his chair.

Zhang You then got busy.

He has a lot on his plate right now. Besides filming, he also has to write scripts and songs. There's no rush for Future Boys' songs, but October's songs really can't be delayed any longer.

This is crucial for the future development of Youyi Studio.

Zhang You created a text document on the computer and began typing, first writing out the "Heaven and Earth Enter My Soul" song that he had asked Ye Zi to sing a few lines of last time.

This song is perfect for Ye Zi's electronic-sounding voice.

Next came "Lady Shexiang," along with "The Temptation of the Man" and other songs by Phoenix Legend. After writing for a while, Zhang You suddenly paused. He remembered another song that he felt was also quite suitable, by October Sky.

But the song was of such high quality that Zhang You was really reluctant to part with it.

After hesitating for a while, Zhang You finally decided to write it for October Sky. After all, the group is now a signed artist of Youyi Studio, and even if they terminate the contract in the future, they will not be able to take the copyright of these songs with them.

The song, adapted from Hu Shi's poem "Hope," is called "Orchid Grass," also known as the "flower of freedom." It is a very old song on Earth, but the meaning it contains is beyond that of ordinary songs.

This short poem, written by Mr. Hu Shih in response to his feelings, uses the orchid as a symbol of "hope" to express his expectation that the land will be filled with the flowers of freedom.

Thinking of the old gentleman, Zhang You sighed softly.

His hopes ultimately proved futile. Despite careful tending, the orchids failed to bloom with their free flowers by autumn. The soil composition was incorrect, and even the best seeds could not compensate for this deficiency.

Later, this song "Orchid Grass" was sung by many famous singers. When "Orchid Grass" was written, Zhang You thought of Xiao Zishan. He frowned subconsciously, and then decisively created a new text document and copied and pasted the song into it.

This girl has always wanted to sing.

Zhang You couldn't think of a song that suited her, but "Orchid Grass" is a good one.

It would be the same if we let Xiao Zishan finish singing first, and then let October Band sing.

Zhang You was busy until almost 11 o'clock when his phone rang. He picked it up and Lin Bao'er's voice came through, saying, "You don't like the company food, so I'll treat you to lunch at a Western restaurant next to the company."

"no problem"

Zhang You smiled and agreed.

Half an hour later, Lin Bao'er, who had finished her work, walked in from outside wearing tight retro jeans and a gray jacket. Under Xu Wei's gaze, Zhang You plugged in the USB drive, dragged all the songs he had written into it, deleted all the text documents on the desktop, and then deleted a bunch of documents in the recycle bin before turning around and smiling at him.

"When you become famous, you'll have to be just as careful as I am."

Zhang You instructed.

"Master, are you worried about me?"

"Don't call me 'Master.' You're a tailor, and I'm a songwriter. I can't teach you anything."

Zhang You didn't explain, but instead smiled and replied.

It wasn't that he was wary of Xu Wei; rather, Zhang You always acted this way. In this society, one shouldn't be too careful, especially since the value of these songs was so high that even Zhang You had to be cautious. He left the company with Lin Bao'er.

Led by her, the two soon arrived at a Western restaurant next to the company. Zhang You didn't particularly like Western food, but he didn't mind coming to eat there since someone was treating him.

Opening the menu, Lin Bao'er ordered a vegetable salad, a steak, and a drink, then handed the menu to Zhang You. Zhang You didn't take it; he simply ordered the same thing for him.

Unlike Lin Bao'er, Zhang You didn't order his steak medium-well; he chose well-done.

"A medium-rare steak tastes best."

Lin Baoer spoke.

"I have a sensitive stomach, so I can only eat soft food and steak that's well-done."

Zhang You replied.

Just as the two were chatting, a young man in a waiter's uniform, while clearing away the dishes left by departing customers, happened to glance over. Upon seeing Zhang You and Lin Bao'er, his gaze faltered for a moment, then he quickly cleaned the table and, as he returned to the kitchen, pulled aside a colleague who was about to serve Zhang You's table, saying, "Let me serve you."

talking.

With his colleague looking puzzled, he took the tray from his hand and walked towards Zhang You's table.

"This kid still won't give up!?"

One of the waiters scoffed and said...

"should be"

"That's what my colleague, who was carrying my tray, replied."

"He's desperate for fame."

The waiter really couldn't stand his colleague's behavior. Just because he could write a few songs, he thought he was some kind of unappreciated genius. In reality, many people in the restaurant had seen his songs, and they were utter nonsense. Yet, whenever a singer came to the restaurant, he would volunteer himself.

He's been told off by his boss many times for this, but he just won't change.

It's only because the boss is kind-hearted that he always makes amends for his behavior of disturbing customers by giving him a free dessert. Any other boss would have fired him long ago.

Who are these people?!
They think they're some kind of golden phoenix fallen among pheasants, without even considering whether they're cut out for it. A waiter who doesn't focus on doing his job well, but instead dreams of writing songs to become famous, is truly ignorant and arrogant.

"Sir and Madam, here is your order of salad and steak."

After setting down the food on his plate, the waiter looked at Lin Bao'er, then at Zhang You, and respectfully asked, "Excuse me, are you Chairman Lin and Director Zhang from Tianyu Entertainment?"

After Lin Bao'er and Zhang You nodded in agreement, the waiter took a piece of paper out of his pocket and placed it on the table, saying, "This is a song I wrote. I hope you two can take a look. Thank you."

After speaking, the waiter politely bowed, and under the questioning gazes of Zhang You and Lin Bao'er, he said, "Enjoy your meal," and then left.

Lin Bao'er picked up the lyrics and took a look.

Then he chuckled, and the waiter who had just walked away heard this and his hopeful eyes dimmed.

Although such an outcome was expected long ago, since it has happened more than once, it is still disheartening to see it occur again.
