My wife is in my arms

Chapter 946 Striving for First Place
It is clear.

This woman wanted to take advantage of the fact that the second season of "Special Voice" had just ended and that his popularity and fame were at their peak, and use him like a beast of burden. However, since he had accepted the role, Zhang You knew that as an actor, there were certain rules that he had to abide by, no matter how unwilling he was.

"Say"

As soon as the call connected, Zhang You spoke directly.

"What kind of attitude is this?!"

Han Wei retorted angrily, "Don't think that just because you're famous now you can talk to me like that. You're over thirty years old and you don't even have basic manners. Is this how your parents raised you?!"

"You're pregnant! Once your child is older, you can raise them well, and I... you don't need to worry about it."

Zhang You wasn't angry at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "You're doing promotions, right? Send me the time and location on my phone, and I'll get there in advance. But there's one thing I need to tell you beforehand: I've taken on a few commercials these past few days that require filming."

"Hey, cashing it out!"

Han Wei scoffed, "Alright, it's useless for you to tell me this. Your schedule is too tight, so figure it out yourself. Don't let it affect me. I'm calling you not to discuss this, but to inform you."

"I am Jonathan Lee"

Zhang You laughed.

"..."

Director Han paused for a moment on the phone, then reacted with unusual intensity, saying, "Zhang You, have you no shame..." Before he could finish, Han Wei heard Zhang You burst into a series of loud laughs, followed by, "Director Han, really, you've become my source of joy."

"Be happy for your son"

Han Wei cursed.

"My son will definitely be happy! Because he wasn't your son."

Zhang You took the water glass Xu Wei handed him, took a sip, and placed it on the desk while smiling and saying something that surprised him. To Zhang You's surprise, Director Han not only didn't get angry, but his previously heated words seemed to have calmed down considerably. He even replied with something that puzzled Zhang You: "That's hard to say."

"as long as you are happy"

soon.

Zhang You knew that Han Wei's words were loaded with meaning.

It was nothing more than a joke like the one she made a while ago, where she said the child in her belly was his. Zhang You didn't find it funny at all. In fact, because of Director Han Wei's joke, her impression of her, which was originally quite good, became worse.

There's a limit to jokes, and Han Wei's actions... make it seem quite ambiguous, which is indeed unfair to her current boyfriend. However, it also suggests that Han Wei, the director who is known as the most beautiful woman in the entertainment industry, might really be thinking what he's thinking.

However, this kind of thing seems to be quite common.

There was something even more outrageous than director Han Wei that happened on Earth.

While a female singer was dating a wealthy man, she also had a boyfriend who was, to put it mildly, a top star promoted by her management company.

Then the female singer got pregnant. She thought the child in her belly was the rich man's, so she ran abroad to give birth, intending to use her son to gain status and directly enter the rich man's family.

But when the wealthy man completed the paternity test and discovered that she had no relation to him at all, he kicked her out.

So the female singer found the top male singer, and after a paternity test, it was confirmed that the child was indeed the top male singer's. However, the top male singer also knew what kind of woman she was, and he absolutely refused to marry her.

Finally, she was compensated with exorbitant monthly child support payments. Her management company also manipulated the situation, successfully portraying her as a model of maternal strength.

Little did they know... this is a case of trying to have their cake and eat it too, and failing at both.

Upon hearing this, Zhang You couldn't help but marvel at the strength of the female singer's management company, which hadn't backed up its reputation even in this situation, and had even used the incident to increase its exposure. However, Zhang You believed that if this was true, it proved that besides wealthy men and top male singers, the female singer must have other male backers.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for a single agency to control things so well, because once a gap appears in such a situation, the media will swarm in and widen the gap.

However, the fact that she was able to control everything so perfectly is enough to prove that there was a key figure behind this female singer. Zhang You didn't know the specifics, but before his sudden death, this female singer was still the perfect single mother in the eyes of many fans, and her image had not yet collapsed.

Shortly after ending her call with Han Wei, she sent the time and location to Zhang You's phone.

Zhang You opened it and took a look.

When he found out it was the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, Zhang You breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Although Han Wei's attitude was somewhat problematic, at least it didn't affect his ability to make money. Seeing Xu Wei still in his office, Zhang You asked, "Nothing to do?"

Director

Xu Wei hesitated for a moment before speaking, "The company said my album will be released like this, but I... I feel like we should at least do some promotion beforehand! Even if it's not much, they should at least approve two million for promotion!"

"So you mean the company won't approve it, and you want me to talk to the company about it, right?!"

Zhang You asked with a smile.

"Yeah yeah yeah"

Xu Wei nodded repeatedly.

"After Xu Lun's album is released, in a month or two, I'll talk to the company. If you release it now, people will think Xu Lun plagiarized yours!"

Zhang You thought for a moment and said seriously, "Awei, I'm not trying to criticize you, but you can't create original music. If you're going to plagiarize, at least do it discreetly. Xu Lun promised not to sue you, but your first album is embroiled in a plagiarism scandal. Do you think your future will be much more difficult? Some fans these days are just as knowledgeable as music critics."

"Get famous first, then we'll talk about other things."

Xu Wei replied.

"whatever"

Since Xu Wei wouldn't listen to advice, Zhang You let him have his way.

Plagiarism of Xu Lun is fine, after all, the two are still on good terms. At most, Xu Wei can treat him to a few meals in private and that will be fine. But plagiarism of others... that's a serious problem.

The defendant lost his reputation.

He was beaten and hospitalized.

Anyway, he could only choose one of the two. However, Zhang You guessed that Xu Wei was so fearless because he thought he had a top-level director like him backing him. Zhang You would kick him out like a ball as soon as he really got into trouble.

Zhang You waited in the office until 11:30, but Lin Bao'er still hadn't come to invite him to dinner. He knew that agreeing to the 10% commission was premature.

Zhang You was unaware that Lin Bao'er was not only not at the company at the moment, but was also in a meeting room with two or three senior executives from the company, arguing with Tian Xiaobo and several other senior executives from Feitian Entertainment because of his matter.

The cause is very simple.

Everyone is vying for the opportunity to appear in "The Vanished Woman" for their company's artists.

Tianyu Entertainment and Feitian Company each hold 15% of the project, which is already non-negotiable, because Zhang You said that he would invest the full amount if anyone tried to negotiate with him.

Both companies conducted internal evaluations of the script, which included the currently popular crime theme, as well as elements such as romantic obsession, gender antagonism, and scumbag men. The final result was that the script reached an A+ quality.
