My wife is in my arms

Chapter 588 Aftermath
"Let me recommend myself first and see how it goes!"

That's all his agent could say.

If even this person has been exposed, then it means... there are very likely other top-notch singers who have been exposed as well.

With their appearance, the level of "Special Voice" Season 2 will definitely be raised. It's impossible to find a few established singers like in Season 1, where fame wasn't a big concern.

Simultaneously.

This also means that even if a second-tier singer like Wang Lei recommends himself, it's hard to say whether he's qualified to go on stage and compete with these singers. He really didn't expect that Zhang You's two performances on the first season of "Special Voice" would ignite Liu Fei's competitive spirit.

Didn't you say you'd become a Buddhist?

Why is he still so competitive? That shouldn't be happening!

As the city lights spread through the night, Jiang Dahu, dressed casually, was drinking with several business partners in a high-end hotel. Despite his large business, there were always those with more assets than him. In reality, those who openly display their wealth are often penniless.

The real giant crocodiles are those that lurk deep in the ocean.

However, after so many years in business, he had long understood that these giant crocodiles should only be viewed from afar, not approached up close, because getting too close could easily lead to trouble.

This is the experience he has accumulated over many years in business.

Tonight's gathering is primarily a private affair, and its main purpose is that one of them has his eye on the tram market and plans to get together with a few others to jointly register a company. They intend to leverage various companies, integrate resources and connections, and jointly develop this market.

To be honest, Jiang Dahu also saw the potential of this market, but he was not optimistic about the alliance with the others. Years ago, the group had started a high-end investment company, but the company failed to develop. They had a major falling out over equity and internal power struggles, with each person wanting their own people to control the company.

The end result was that this company, which had just started to show promise, went completely under.

Working together is fine, but none of the people present are willing to be subordinate to others; they all want to take control of the company. How can this be managed?! Therefore, Jiang Dahu doesn't think it's a good idea at all.

If you want to do good things, you have to plan ahead and decide how much power to hold based on your shareholding ratio. However, this also has its drawbacks. Over time, factions will naturally form within the company. The best way is for others to enter the company as investors, without participating in any management. They can simply send an accountant to check the accounts and monitor the flow of funds.

"Chairman Jiang, what do you have to say?!"

Someone clinked glasses with him and asked a question.

"I won't lie to you, last year we invested over 3 billion in R&D for Phantom, and this year we've added several hundred million more. We simply can't spare any more money right now."

Jiang Dahu admitted.

"Chairman Jiang, don't be modest. Everyone knows that the Phantom flagship phone has sold over eight million units."

The man laughed.

Jiang Dahu's face, which had been smiling, froze.

Eight million units sounds like a lot, but in reality, it represents a pitifully small percentage of the mobile phone market. The two top-tier brands directly account for 65% of the market share. In terms of sales volume, these two companies alone sold nearly 300 million units worldwide last year.

That's why Jiang Dahu has always wanted to expand into the high-end market, but in practice, he has encountered many difficulties. He couldn't compete with the new brand in terms of price. This mobile phone brand is really aggressive, like a price killer, and can make a profit of only fifty yuan per phone.

After my actions, the low-end mobile phone market basically has no chance of survival for the Phantom.

High-end... Actually, the configuration of the Phantom is not low. It is also actively expanding into the high-end consumer market. However, several other second-tier mobile phone brands have the same idea as it, and everyone is desperately competing for configurations.

This has led to profit margins getting lower year by year.

Therefore, competition in the mobile phone market is becoming increasingly fierce year by year. If this continues, Phantom, which doesn't have the strong financial backing of other second-tier mobile phone brands, doesn't know how long it can last. "Alright, since Chairman Jiang isn't willing to join the electric car project, let's not force him."

Those nearby noticed the bitter look on Jiang Dahu's face and quickly tried to comfort him.

immediately.

A middle-aged man who was looking at his phone suddenly pointed at the screen and asked Jiang Dahu, "Chairman Jiang, isn't this your son-in-law?!"

Jiang Dahu took the phone and looked at it with a puzzled expression. When he saw the person singing on the stage in the video, his expression instantly turned to surprise. It really was his son-in-law. But when did his son-in-law, who had boasted about selling the surnames of the two children in his daughter's belly, learn to sing?

At this moment, Mr. Tan, the head of Baiqueniao Cosmetics, handed him the phone and asked, "Is he your son-in-law?!"

"Um"

Jiang Dahu nodded.

"Your son-in-law is going to be famous."

Chairman Tan smiled and said, "Moreover, his image is very suitable for him to be the spokesperson for a facial cleanser that our company is about to launch. Chairman Jiang, give me your son-in-law's phone number in a bit, and I'll talk to him personally."

The others, however, didn't seem to care.

Although many people had heard about Chairman Jiang's family affairs, none of the people present were curious, so they were too lazy to ask. As for Chairman Jiang's youngest son-in-law, no matter how famous he was, he was just an entertainer, and they controlled the so-called resources of entertainers.

After the gathering ended, Jiang Dahu got into his car, and the driver immediately started the car and took him home. He didn't think much about the banquet that night.

The electric vehicle market has great potential, but Jiang Dahu is not optimistic about the group's collaboration. Secondly, the initial investment for electric vehicles is at least 50 billion yuan, so if they really want to do it, they have to spend a lot of money to recruit some professional talents. Thirdly... and most importantly, Phantom cannot come up with tens or hundreds of billions of yuan, and it would be a joke to spend 300 to 500 million yuan to develop electric vehicles.

When Jiang Dahu got home, he saw his wife and eldest daughter, Jiang Jiaren, watching videos on a tablet and chatting. His wife laughed and said, "Your brother-in-law sings quite well."

"Mom, just say Zhang You, don't worry about him being my brother-in-law."

Jiang Jiaren said with dissatisfaction.

"Isn't he your brother-in-law?!"

"She sang really well."

Jiang Dahu leaned over for a look and immediately made a comment.

"You haven't seen the trending topics. Tonight, it's all about your son-in-law. Yiren should be overjoyed. After all these years, she's finally made it."

What does it mean to finally get ahead?

Jiang Dahu snorted coldly and said, "Who told her to endure it?! Was it me who told her to endure it, or you who told her to endure it? She chose it herself, so she has no right to complain. She chose her own path, both before and in the future, but..."

As he spoke, Jiang Dahu looked at the video again and saw Zhang You singing "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" on the stage. He couldn't help but laugh and said, "Now it seems that he and Yiren are quite a good match."

"I think so"

Jiang Yiren's mother said with a smile.
