My wife is in my arms

Chapter 768 The Emotional Card (Part 4)
Just as she had expected.

Zhang You then returned the phone to her, and it was obvious that the chairman of Cainiao Music had no intention of continuing the argument with this guy.

Zhang You

Lin Bao'er said with a serious expression, "You really have a thick skin."

Thank you for your praise.

Zhang You smiled and cupped his hands in greeting, then said, "Weren't you going to a meeting? While you're at it, tell the publicity department to spread the word for me. Say that Zhang You is dissatisfied with Rookie Music's use of exorbitantly priced songs for publicity, so he was willing to pay 20 million to buy back 'About in Winter,' but was rejected by Rookie Music. He is now strongly dissatisfied and hereby declares that, effective immediately, he will no longer cooperate with any of Rookie Music's artists."

"..."

Lin Baoer was stunned.

Then she finally realized that Zhang You was putting Rookie Music in a very difficult position, but... she asked directly, "What good will this do you? And by doing this, aren't you just directly offending Rookie Music to the core?!"

This guy usually seems quite rational, but he always manages to do things that are thankless and exhausting.

Why must there be benefits?!

At first, Zhang You didn't intend to make a fuss, but he was really disgusted by the three million from the chairman of Cainiao Music. He asked a question back, and then said, "Sometimes you businessmen always think that no matter what you do, you have to prioritize profit. Cainiao Music makes me unhappy, so I'll make them unhappy. Besides, in the end, Cainiao Music will definitely suffer greater losses. As for offending... I'm a music creator, why would I be afraid of such things? Besides, I'm already so famous. If I don't show off a little, people will think I'm not a big shot!"

At this point, Zhang You paused slightly, then continued, "I also revealed that other music platforms will be contacting me."

"What are you doing now?!"

Lin Baoer asked.

"Why do you think it's for?! Of course, it's for money. All the songs I've written have made so much money for iMusic, and they still haven't sent anyone to talk to me about lowering their commission. Since they won't take the initiative, I'll force them to. Anyway, it's not just one music platform. Sometimes, if you don't put some pressure on people, they won't feel the urgency."

Finally, Zhang You sighed.

"All right!"

Lin Bao'er understood.

After all, it's not something Zhang You can bring up on his own initiative. To gain the upper hand at the negotiating table, you have to let the other party speak first.

Giving a heartfelt thumbs-up, Lin Bao'er exclaimed, "I really feel like you're more suited to be a boss than me! But aren't you afraid of pushing the chairman of Rookie Music too far and making him resort to some underhanded tactics?!"

"He only has one chance. If he fails, I'll show him that car accidents are just low-level tricks; there are many more sophisticated ways to play."

Zhang You replied with a smile.

In this regard.

He wasn't worried at all.

Let's leave the issues that need to be addressed in the open and deal with them in the open. As for using some underhanded methods that we never see in private... Zhang You believes that the chairman of Rookie Music doesn't have that kind of guts. After all, he is the second son-in-law of Jiang Dahu, the founder of Phantom.

Moreover, if things really escalate to that point, as long as he's not dead, his father-in-law won't need to intervene.

"You make it sound so true."

Lin Bao'er made a disdainful sound, then reminded him, "The company notified Jin Zhen to be at the company at 9:30. You need to hurry up and write the melody for 'I've Crossed the Ocean to See You'."

"I was just about to write it, but you interrupted me."

Zhang You replied unhappily.

"He went to a meeting."

Lin Bao'er waved the hand holding the phone.

"Are you going to treat me to lunch?!"

Zhang You asked.

"Please my ass!" Lin Bao'er cursed directly, "Go eat at a restaurant by yourself. I have to go out again after my meeting and won't be back in time. All you ever think about is taking advantage of me. If you're a man, treat me to a meal."

"Five million isn't enough for you to eat?!"

Zhang You asked back.

After a while, Zhang You still hadn't heard Lin Bao'er's voice. He knew that when it came to crucial moments, Lin Bao'er, like many people in society, suffered from intermittent feigning death syndrome.

After swiping the mouse pad twice and the laptop screen lit up, Zhang You started working. Lin Bao'er, who had just stepped into the meeting room, paused, immediately realizing that she had fallen into Zhang You's trap.

They said they weren't afraid of offending newbies in music.

He was indeed not afraid.

Since this message was sent out by Tianyu Entertainment's publicity department, Rookie Music naturally wouldn't cause him any trouble; instead, they would direct their anger at Tianyu Entertainment.

"asshole"

Lin Bao'er cursed inwardly.

However, I have to admire this guy's cunning... But during this meeting, she only let the publicity department let the iMusic platform know that other music platforms had contacted Zhang You, and didn't discuss anything else.

The main reason is that Cainiao Music and Tianyu Entertainment are about to launch a collaboration on short videos. This period is equivalent to a honeymoon period between the two companies.

If we really have to break off relations, we should wait until this stage is over.

The meeting had just ended.

Zhang You knew that Lin Bao'er hadn't given all the instructions he wanted. He didn't say anything, but instead called the person in charge of Youyi Studio and asked the studio to handle the matter.

Shortly after.

Jin Zhen was then taken into Zhang You's office.

"Let's go! I'll take you to the recording studio."

Zhang You took the lyrics to "I've Crossed the Ocean to See You" and the melody he had just finished, and went to the company's recording studio with Jin Zhen.

When Jin Zhen stood in the soundproof booth of the recording studio, wearing an in-ear monitor, and began recording "I've Crossed the Ocean to See You," Zhang You knew that his judgment was correct.

A performance imbued with genuine emotion speaks volumes more than any other performance.

Even though Jin Zhen's singing still had many problems, especially since she would burst into tears while singing, Zhang You didn't intend to replace her. Instead, he kept comforting her.

The morning passed just like that.

"I've Crossed the Ocean to See You" was still not finished. Zhang You didn't say anything, but instead sent the song he had produced to Jin Zhen's phone, asking her to take it back and listen to it for a few days before recording it.

Furthermore, he explained the key points of singing this song to Jinzhen one by one.

Zhang You was going to Liu Fei's company that afternoon to continue preparing for the recording of the next episode of "Special Voice". After Zhang You left, Jin Zhen was taken to the management department by a company staff member to discuss the contract.

Ultimately, she was signed by Tianyu Entertainment with a basic monthly salary of six thousand yuan and a 1:9 commission rate. The contract was for ten years. Zhang You was unaware of this, and even if he had, he wouldn't have said anything.

Before this, Jin Zhen was a complete novice.

The salary might not be more than six thousand.

So even with this seemingly low signing fee and the exorbitant commission rate, it's still much better for her than her current job.

It's about two o'clock in the afternoon.
