My wife is in my arms

Chapter 765 Playing the Emotional Card
the next day.

The news that Zhang You "composed a song on the spot" appeared on the trending search list. In addition to this hot topic, the purchase volume of "Until the End of the World" also appeared on the list as of midnight last night.

Daily purchases exceeded nine million.

When this figure was presented to the audience and industry insiders in a direct way, those who had criticized Zhang You's exorbitantly priced songs instantly fell silent.

The main problem is that this number is too alarming.

Han Hui's management team also became quiet, as if they were brewing new energy, while the fans' reaction was relatively more direct.

Besides praising the song "Until the End of the World," which was tailor-made for Ma Chu, as incredibly good, they also comforted him, telling him not to take any sky-high-priced songs too seriously and to focus on creating better songs.

Ma Chu's reaction was timely.

Early this morning... This time he didn't have his agent issue a thank-you statement, mainly because his agent had just posted it yesterday, and someone in his comment section asked him if he had failed the civil service exam before, but hadn't been able to shake off the mindset associated with it.

He also knew why his fans would ask that question.

Don't say it.

He had indeed heard from his agent that she took the civil service exam after graduating from university, and she took it several times, but failed each time, and finally had no choice but to work for Tianyu Entertainment.

Every time the topic comes up, his agent says with a dark twist that he didn't lose in the written exam, but in the interview. Ma Chu isn't sure if it's true or not, but the civil service exam has definitely become a source of anxiety for his agent.

The main reason might be... "I'm so smart, I even got into university, yet I can't pass the civil service exam." In fact, not to mention her, many students from top universities also fail the exam.

The exam content is different, so of course it's not easy to pass. Society doesn't have that many dark sides.

"Thank you to Mr. Zhang You for writing 'Until the End of the World' for me. It is an honor to work with him. During the recording, he carefully guided and adjusted my singing again and again, and the final result is what everyone hears. I look forward to working with Mr. Zhang You again."

Ma Chu didn't mention the company.

The fact that the main company kept him hidden for so many years was certainly due to his own reasons, but... people tend to shift their responsibility onto others.

Even if they can only deflect some of the blame, they will subconsciously blame the company and that woman for their past being sidelined.

He needed to say that in front of Chairman Lin. In fact, he knew he was wrong, but the company couldn't just sideline him for so many years.

If he hadn't begged his agent to speak up this time, he might have been kept hidden forever.

People need to make a living.

Even during his suspension, the company still gave him 8,000 yuan a month as salary, which seemed like a lot, but in reality, it was only enough to make ends meet, mainly because he had bought a house that year and needed to pay the mortgage every month.

It's just that the location he bought wasn't too high, and the price was only a little over 10,000 per square meter, otherwise... he wouldn't have been able to survive until recently when he went bankrupt.

With the huge success of "Until the End of the World", he gained more than 3 million fans overnight, after being sidelined by his company and having only 200,000 fans left.

He achieved this kind of growth, something he hadn't even done at the peak of his career, and this time he actually did it, which is clearly thanks to "Until the End of the World".

morning.

Zhang You arrived at the company. Xu Wei had already brewed tea and was waiting for him. This guy was becoming more and more skilled at his job as an assistant. In particular, besides brewing the tea, he had also bought a box of mung bean cakes and a box of purple sweet potato cakes from somewhere.

Since this kid knew how to handle things, Zhang You didn't hold back.

While sipping tea, Zhang You picked up a piece of mung bean cake and ate it. Xu Wei circled around him several times, but Zhang You, who was still looking at the latest comments from the audience after his impromptu performance last night, didn't even lift his eyelids.

Nothing to do is to commit crimes or to steal.

Zhang You didn't even need to think; he knew Xu Wei must have something he needed help with. Otherwise, he'd only offer to make tea at most. As for mung bean cakes and purple sweet potato cakes, would this grown man really buy them for him?!
Obviously impossible.

If the guy were a woman, it would be possible. After all, girls are meticulous and love to eat these things themselves, so they would buy some and give him a piece or two.

Men are out of the question.

As men, we are generally the type who don't ask favors and don't know how to socialize.

After circling around several more times, Xu Wei hesitated slightly, seeing that Director Zhang still hadn't asked anything, before finally saying, "Director Zhang..."

"The mung bean cake is good, and the purple sweet potato cake is also good."

Before Xu Wei could finish speaking, Zhang You pointed to the two boxes of pastries in front of him and said, "You're starting to look more and more like an assistant now, which is great. Keep it up. Next year, if the company has any awards for best employee, I'll definitely nominate you for one. Work hard. Young people always get rewarded for their efforts. Believe in yourself and believe in the company. Don't listen to those incompetent young people in society who like to spread negativity and say things like, 'As long as you're willing to suffer, you'll have endless hardships.' That's complete nonsense. They don't even realize how good it is to suffer; it's also less likely to make you fat. According to a survey by an authoritative medical institution, the secret to living a long and healthy life is to suffer losses."

Xu Wei opened his mouth.

But he hadn't said anything yet.

Zhang You continued, "Because people who endure hardship tend to be thinner and less likely to develop high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or high blood sugar. Furthermore, enduring hardship effectively reduces the probability of developing diabetes. Therefore, enduring hardship is a healthy lifestyle worth promoting. If you don't endure hardship, your lifespan will be shorter than others, and your chances of cerebral thrombosis and cerebral infarction will be higher. What are people ultimately competing for?! Isn't it just about who lives the longest…?"

"puff"

A laugh came from the doorway.

Zhang You abruptly stopped speaking, his gaze shifting from the audience's comments on his phone screen to the office doorway.

Lin Bao'er, wearing tight jeans and a women's blazer, walked in smiling.

"Since you enjoy hardship so much, that's perfect... Tianyu Entertainment bought a piece of land a couple of years ago, but it hasn't been developed yet. I'm thinking of sending you to loosen the soil on this land. What do you think?"

Lin Baoer said with a smile.

"Not very good!?"

Upon seeing Chairman Lin appear, Xu Wei was so startled that he forgot about asking Director Zhang for help and left the office immediately.

After Bao'er sat down, Zhang You pushed the two boxes of pastries Xu Wei had bought forward. Seeing Lin Bao'er shake her head, Zhang You didn't insist. Instead, he brought up their agreement, saying, "I don't need to say more about the purchase volume of Ma Chu's 'Until the End of the World,' right? There's no doubt that the agreement will be fulfilled, so now it's three to two."

What do you think of me?

Lin Bao'er had anticipated Zhang You's question yesterday, so instead of answering it directly, she asked him this question instead.
