My wife is in my arms

Chapter 771 If you're not convinced, then fight!

"Talent"

Li Xiaohong silently made this assessment of Zhang You in her heart.

But thinking about it carefully, the method this guy used was indeed simple and efficient.

This would not only change the impression among people in the industry that he was a rising star, but also elevate his status in the entertainment industry to a certain level.

At least his act of single-handedly confronting an entire entertainment company earns him a lot of respect from many people in the entertainment industry.

Liu Fei didn't concern herself with Zhang You's affairs.

After he finished his call, Zhang You took the adapted version of "My Heart Is Clear" and asked for his opinion. He was busy until 5:30 p.m. before he said goodbye and left.

The footage from the last recording will be broadcast tonight.

We'll be recording the next episode tomorrow.

When Zhang You returned home, Rookie Music issued a formal statement regarding the termination of cooperation between Rookie Music and its artists and actors.

"First of all, we would like to thank Mr. Zhang You for composing 'About in Winter' for our company. Mr. Zhang You's musical talent has always been highly regarded within our company. Regarding the hype surrounding the 'sky-high price song,' our company, with a responsible attitude, can sincerely tell Mr. Zhang You that this is unrelated to us. Furthermore, if Mr. Zhang You chooses to sue, our legal department will support him to the end. Secondly, regarding Mr. Zhang You's statement that he will not cooperate with our company's singers or actors, we respect Mr. Zhang You's wishes. We deeply regret this and sincerely hope that this small matter will not affect our friendship."

"Rookie Music's response is far more sophisticated than Zhang You's."

Li Xiaohong smiled and said to Liu Fei, who was sitting on the sofa singing along.

Holding her water glass, Liu Fei showed no reaction. Then she heard her agent sigh, "But I must say Zhang You's strategy was successful. Forcing an entertainment company to issue a statement from an artist is truly rare in the entertainment industry."

"normal"

Liu Fei took a sip of water and replied casually.

"really"

Li Xiaohong nodded in agreement.

Zhang You is so different from ordinary singers. He is proficient in everything and is top-notch in everything. No matter how strong a newcomer's music is, it is not difficult for them to use their connections to smear an artist or ban them. But there is no way to deal with someone like Zhang You.

Aside from resorting to underhanded tactics, if they were to actually do that, Zhang You is the second son-in-law of Jiang Dong, the founder of Phantom Music. If Cainiao Music were to do such a thing, Jiang Dong would definitely be furious, and Xu Zhonghua wouldn't be able to handle it.

It's likely that Zhang You saw through this, which is why he chose to step forward and challenge Rookie Music this time.

Lin Bao'er got home earlier tonight.

After meeting with a client in the afternoon, she didn't go back to the company but chose to come back directly. As for Zhang You's decision to have his own studio take action instead of following his instructions to confront Rookie Music during her meeting, she knew about it but didn't say anything.

now.

Lin Shirong stood in the yard, teasing the birds that he had probably just bought.

"Why wasn't the propaganda department asked to help Zhang You!?"

Lin Shirong turned to look at his eldest daughter, who had returned from a day's work, and suddenly asked.

"How can I help!?"

Lin Bao'er countered with a question, and before her father could speak, she offered her understanding, saying, "Tianyu Entertainment and Rookie Music have a business partnership right now. It's not worth ruining things over something like this." "Then what is worth it!?"

Lin Shirong asked again, "In the business world, when pursuing profits, you have to know how to make trade-offs. Do you think your collaboration with Xu Zhonghua of Rookie Music can exceed the profits generated by the company and that kid Zhang You? Bao'er, water doesn't cool down all at once, and relationships aren't something you can build up just by smiling at someone every day. It's about choosing to stand by their side at crucial moments."

"Dad, this is such a small thing, it's not that big of a deal, is it?!"

Lin Bao'er frowned slightly.

"Whether it's that serious or not depends on your perspective. From Zhang You's point of view, he thinks it's serious. You think it's not serious because you're looking at it from your own point of view, and..."

After a slight hesitation, Lin Shirong said in a deep voice, "Have you ever thought about this? Why didn't this kid break ties with Rookie Music when the 'sky-high price song' was first being hyped up, but instead chose today?"

"..."

Lin Bao'er didn't say anything; she stared blankly at her father.

Lin Shirong sighed and said, "This kid was probably waiting to see what Tianyu Entertainment would do. Seeing that you hadn't reacted, he chose to take action himself. If I'm not mistaken, this kid probably wanted to test you with this. Everyone thinks it's not a big deal, Xu Zhonghua thinks so, and Zhang You thinks so too, but using a small matter to test whether a friend is worth befriending is undoubtedly the most appropriate thing to do."

"So insidious!?"

Lin Bao'er finally spoke.

"This is just my guess. I don't know if it's true or not. But if it were me, it would be perfect to use this to test whether your friend is someone I can keep as a friend or someone who easily shifts positions when it comes to interests. This way, they can make a judgment and determine their position in the future."

I don't believe he would think that way.

Lin Bao'er replied, "I'm usually so good to him."

"It's precisely because you're always so good to him that he's testing you to see if you're only doing this for personal gain or if you genuinely consider him a friend. Let me ask you something: did you go to him today and ask him not to include Ma Chu in the agreement, but instead to have him continue to promote three others for the company?"

Lin Shirong asked.

"..."

Lin Bao'er didn't speak, and then her body stiffened.

It seems that after she went to Zhang You's office early this morning to talk to him about this matter, Xu Zhonghua called, and Zhang You proposed a "50 million" fee for making friends, which neither Xu Zhonghua nor she could possibly agree to.

Zhang Youming knew she wouldn't agree, yet he still said that, which meant he was deliberately creating a point of conflict and then seeking her help.

As these thoughts flashed through her mind, Lin Bao'er pursed her red lips tightly.

If that's the case, then Zhang You is simply a "cunning old fox," especially since as the music director of Tianyu Entertainment, he must know that the company and Rookie Music will be collaborating on short dramas, so this is how he made her make a choice.

Lin Shirong looked at his eldest daughter and couldn't help but sigh softly.

A girl is still a girl.

People who always consider both sides when dealing with matters, hoping to find a solution that satisfies everyone, are often unaware that the more capable a person is, the more they like to screen the people and things around them.

Only those who can withstand his tests can become his true friends; those who cannot... there is no need to associate with them.

The saying "the higher you climb, the colder it gets" means that before you even reach that height, all your friends have been filtered out.
