Huayu: Starting with living with a girl from Taiwan

It's not fair to say that Yang Zongwei sang badly.

He still sang with his own unique style, his voice full of vicissitudes and helplessness.

But perhaps due to psychological pressure, or perhaps because he was less imposing than Jam Hsiao when he avoided the battle earlier.

I always felt that... my aura seemed to have weakened by half a point.

The final results are in: Jam Hsiao has defeated Yang Chong Wei once again!

Yang Chong Wei loses to Hsiao Ching-teng twice!

The production team was already arguing about the popularity of the two in the last episode.

This result has caused the "Xiao-Yang battle" to surge in popularity once again!

Post-match interview area.

Faced with numerous microphones and flashing lights, Jam Hsiao, who had just experienced a fierce competition, seemed somewhat at a loss.

She subconsciously looked in Lin Mo's direction.

Just then, a warm hand gently grasped his wrist.

Lin Youhui had somehow appeared beside him, a professional smile on her face, shielding the somewhat flustered Xiao Jingteng.

"Hello everyone, I am Jam Hsiao's manager, Lin Youhui."

Her voice instantly attracted the attention of all the media.

The reporters were taken aback, then erupted in uproar:

"A manager? Has Jam Hsiao already signed with a company?"

"Which company is this?"

"Is it HIM International Music?"

Faced with a barrage of questions, Lin Youhui, with her extensive experience, handled them with ease.

"Specific details are not convenient to disclose at the moment. Jam Hsiao's primary task right now is to focus on the competition and repay everyone's love with better music. Thank you for your concern."

After saying that, she gently put her arm around Xiao Jingteng's shoulder and, in a protective and guiding manner, led him quickly through the crowd and into a waiting van.

Lin Mo, who had just arrived at the interview area, couldn't help but smile slightly when he saw this scene.

Wow, what a sight!

A capable and efficient older sister, and a shy and naive younger brother... it really has that vibe.

It seems that the gears of fate have not only started turning, but have also been quietly lubricated.

Lin Mo had just turned his gaze away when he was surrounded by reporters.

"Lin Mo! There are rumors online that you've secretly signed with JVR Music and that Jay Chou ghostwrote all your songs. Is that true?"

A male reporter wearing glasses shoved the microphone almost into Lin Mo's face and spoke very quickly.

Lin Mo glanced at the logo on the other party's microphone—Formosa Liberty Times.

It's that brain-dead media outlet that criticizes "Chinese Language" for its flawed message.

Faced with this question, Lin Mo had no interest in answering it at all.

He gave the reporter a look that suggested he figure it out himself, then turned and went to give friendly interviews to several other media outlets nearby.

Throughout the entire process, they completely ignored the reporter from the Liberty Times of Taiwan.

The reporter, left standing there, turned ashen-faced. How could he not have dignity after being so ignored in front of Tong Hua?

After finishing the interview, Lin Mo got directly into the car that the crew of "Hot Shot" had come to pick him up.

He has filming to do early tomorrow morning, so he needs to rush back to the hotel where the film crew is staying to rest.

However, before going back, Lin Mo still used the official vehicle for personal purposes, having the driver take him to another private restaurant that he had arranged to meet in advance.

Inside the private room, Lin Youhui and Xiao Jingteng, who had recovered from their shock, were already there, and several light dishes were laid out on the table.

"Boss." Lin Youhui stood up to greet Lin Mo as he entered.

Xiao Jingteng was stunned for a moment, then stood up as well.

"Sit down, sit down, let's eat and talk." Lin Mo waved his hand.

After everyone was seated, Lin Youhui didn't exchange many pleasantries and went straight to work:

"Boss, there's a commercial endorsement opportunity that I think is pretty good. I'd like to ask your opinion."

"What endorsement?" Lin Mo took a sip of water.

"Metersbonwe," Lin Youhui said succinctly.

"Jay Chou has been the brand ambassador since 03, and Angela Chang was added as a new ambassador this March."

"Now they hope to sign another young artist with high public profile to broaden the brand image."

"They are very interested in you, especially your good relationship with Jay Chou and your continued high popularity recently, which are all points they value."

Then Lin Youhui briefly explained the contents of the contract.

Lin Mo thought she was indeed professional, and nodded as he listened.

Metersbonwe is indeed one of the trendy brands in the hearts of young people in China these days.

For many born in the late 85s and early 90s, it is part of their youthful memories.

Being able to become a spokesperson alongside Jay Chou and Angela Chang undoubtedly greatly enhances his personal commercial value and public image.

Lin Youhui's report was well-organized and her analysis of the pros and cons was thorough, clearly demonstrating that she had done her homework.

"If the boss thinks there are no problems, I'll have them prepare the contract. According to their plan, they need to shoot the new product video in about two weeks, and you, Jay Chou, and Angela Chang will probably all be involved."

"No problem." Lin Mo nodded and made the decision.

It's much easier to leave professional matters to professionals.

"Actually, Angela Chang and I have a good relationship. The show 'Guess Guess' will air tomorrow night, and it should have a good effect."

"Oh?" Lin Youhui was slightly surprised, but quickly composed herself.

"This is great, we can use this to generate buzz."

Lin Youhui felt that this young boss, who shared the same surname as her, was indeed just as Chai Zhiping had described.

They're incredibly mature.

Then, she glanced at Xiao Jingteng, who was standing beside her looking rather timid, and sighed inwardly.

This is the normal reaction a newcomer of this age should have.

We still need to have her properly train us.

If everyone were like the boss, she would lose her job.

the next day.

A report about Lin Mo appeared in the Formosa Liberty Times.

The headline is sensational, and the content is extremely distorted.

They accused Lin Mo of being "arrogant," "disrespectful," "having a terrible attitude towards the media," and "acknowledging that the songs were ghostwritten by Jay Chou."

This website's main theme is "freedom of speech".

Therefore, it is a gathering place for many crooked people.

Lin Mo's identity as a mainland Chinese was already disliked by these biased people, and now they've started attacking him even more, using very harsh language.

Lin Mo is filming on set and hasn't seen these yet.

But his fan base has already exploded.

[Sweet Girl from Shaanxi]:

"I'm so angry! What a piece of trash this newspaper is! They're spouting nonsense! I'm going to blow this newspaper up!!!"

[Milk with sugar]:

"Group owner, calm down! Don't act impulsively! That's illegal!"

[Soloing the Tree Spirit]:

"They're clearly trying to disgust Brother Mo on purpose, using the same tactics they used to smear 'Chinese Language.' Just ignore them!"

[The King of Drinking]:

"But it's so infuriating! What right do they have to talk about Brother Mo like that? Jay Chou already clarified it!"

[Administrator of the "Idiot Bar"]:

"Let's be rational and objective. These kinds of media outlets rely on extreme rhetoric to attract attention. The more you argue with them, the more they get worked up. The best way is to refute them with facts."

The group chat was filled with arguments, anger, and attempts to console each other for a whole day.

The show "Guess Guess Guess" aired as scheduled that evening.

Lin Mo's performance on the show, especially the impromptu composition at the end where he was "tricked" by Wu Zongxian and Angela Chang.

The footage of him playing and singing that mysterious new song in less than three minutes of thinking time was quickly captured and spread virally on the Internet.
